Someone at Samsung needs to be fired for releasing a phone with such a horrible web browser for viewing basic web pages.  Why haven't other people complained about it?

There is no word wrap for text.  If you want to read a web article, you have to constantly scroll right and left to read a article, making it almost unusable.  Such a shame for a phone with such a large screen.  Phones with smaller screens and mobile only web browsing do a better job at displaying web pages, cause they word wrap!

Is there any way to upgrade the browser?
Does the Samsung code resolve this issue?
What about hacking the app?  Maybe use a hex editor on the browser to change the fixed horizontal width?

Browser: NF3.5
S/W: V.R810.CG23
H/W V. R810.02

Same software versions I have and I have been complaining for about a year now about the lack of word-wrapping. A lot of left/right scrolling it does entail. Originally the Samsung SCH-R810 Finesse had NetFront 3.4 browser, a few weeks ago I got it upgraded to 3.5 hoping that I would see better page formatting. Alas, no avail.

Maybe talking to netfront will give us some more insider info about the browser.

Sounds good. Perhaps the email that I sent to them got lost in the circular file and they'll reply to you.
