Is there one for the android.im sickof wanting to copy something from the browser and not bein able to select any words or a link that isnt clickable.
 
Long press on the text area you want to copy... then adjust sliders too encompass what you want copied. Tap selected text and it will be copied to clipboard. How to paste long press blank input and select paste.

That should work in just about every browser. I can attest that it does in Opera and Boat.
 
No app that I know of... it's odd that you can't select text from long pressing. Is the text you're trying to select inside of a window like on Word Press or something?
 
I just downloaded and installed miren... the problem is the browser. It doesn't appear to support copy and paste.

Yep, Fake Chrome(aka miren) is really hinky when it comes to copy and paste. It works every now and then for me, I just work around it cause I really done care, and I like the browser. And run-on sentences too ;)
 
It's not how big it is that matters... it's how you use it lol. You could always rename it browser.apk and move it to /system/app.

I have a browser that does not support copy paste it in fact needs another app on to function its orweb+proxy+privacy it needs orbit on and bootstrapping to work it really is a nifty little app being it changes or cloaks your IP so it appears different every time the funnest part confusing the crap out of facebook it has me do a captcha every time and my inbox is full of emails asking if it was me hahaha but I see where he is coming from being it takes alot of effort to copy paste even in browsers that support it big fingers I guess
