For the smoother part
I tried today Firefox (10.0.3 without Flash) on SG-S2 and that was the smoother experience
On the N9 it's anywhere near smooth but when romaxa will finish the QT UI it should be smooth .

Is that something he's working on or just what we hope for? I know he's mentioned that it would make Fennec faster, but not that he'll actually do it.

I've tried to install nigtly fennec from romaxa website but I'm getting this and fennec just starts with a blank page and I can not click on anything . Anyone had sucessfully installed nightly fennec so far ?

Did you uninstall Nokia Store version before installing the nightly Fennec version?

First time nope (my bad) , but then I purged nightly and firefox and tried to install again nightly and these are the results .

The latest nightly I installed was yesterday and it worked. Sorry for asking stupid questions, but did you allow installation of other sources than from Nokia Store?

Yes , I fixed the problem , it was some missing dependency . I managed to install it succesfully but it seems to be as slow and laggy like firefox .

The speed difference if very subtle, maybe even just something imaginable.

This could be fixed with a QT UI, but I haven't got an answer to if that's in the works or just a wish. Imagine Fennec as fast as the stock browser, but still with all it's tools....that would be something special!

Fennec as fast as stock browser or stock browser with flash support like fennec ... the dream of any N9 user .

As someone said here , in 2012 a smarphone without a good browser with flash support is a handicap .

Yes, but I would prefer Fennec with speed.
