I at least changed the default browser to a different one than either the phone chose for me all by itself or chose for me by me clicking something accidentally. I've given up on what I wanted, which was for the email app to go back to asking me which browser I wanted to use and if I wanted to do it one time or always.

A very very first world problem, of course. I just hate it when I can't make technology do what I want it to do.
