Solution for accessing 3 HK portal and watch streaming media - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

You have to go "HKLM\Security\Internet Explorer", then add new key "User Agent". Next, add new String "Custom"="Dopod838Pro". By adding these key, I can access 3HK portal only. But I think it should work for smartone-vodafone portal.

[Q]About the manila music

When I use the Dutty's 2.1rom, it is usually stuck (for example, the song stop for a little moment) when i use the manila player to play the music, is there any way can fix that? Thank you.
Hi,
check out all 25 pages of posts - there is no method that totally stops the stuttering
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460100
could someone explain why the hell the manila music player cant play my files in the right order? it just plays a few tracks of an album, e.g. 2nd, 5th, 7th, and 12th track.
very crazy!! i tried all possible options but no way to just play in normal order. and it doesnt show any album covers which are in the same directory, jpeg files. is this program just trash?
It seems earlier versions weren't the best but if you flash to one of the more recent roms the problems have mostly been sorted

Thank you.right,for example,the dutty's 2.3 rom seems fix it, but I don't like the new start menu~and I find is use wmp it will never happen,seems it is someting wrong with manila......
If you use task manager to disable enlarge start menu service, you will see the standard start windows menu instead. This worked on both 2.3 and 2.4 roms.
Regarding the track order, the solution I have is to create playlist and store them under \storage card\playlists. Once playlists are generated, I can pick the album from the playlists and its in the correct order. I have a tool that generates the playlists by scanning \storage card\music folder. I can share if any one needs.

Thank you for the advice of new star menu,but if you do this, when you show the program page in manila and tap any icon in the page the old start menu will jump out. Is there any way to fix it?
And could share the software you said for the music scanning?
Hi there,
I am not sure if I understood you correctly. When I disable the service named EnlargeStartMenu(EMX0: ) , the start menu returns to calssic windows one. The size is also reverted back to default start menu. To disable the service, I set it to start manually and restarted. The only side effect I have is that, since programs tab is not available in new manila, I loose the quick launch tab. However, I don't see it as a problem.
Regarding the playlist tool, I have attached the files here. PlayListUtilityApp.zip contans an exe you need to launch in your device. You can copy it to any folder. Then set the location of music files as well as playlist export folder. Then File -> Create Playlists will scan the folders and generate a playlist for each album.
The output folder \Storate Card\playlists seems to be scanned by manilla player, so once you export them, playlists will be visible in manila and track will be correct order.
This may not work for everybody because it requires the following layout in music flibrary:
Artist
-----Album
-----------01. Track
-----------02. another track
or
Artist
-----Album
-----------DISC 1(CD 1 or 1 as folder name is ok as well)
------------------01. Track
------------------02. another track
-----------DISC 2(CD 2 or 2 as folder name is ok as well)
------------------01. another track
------------------02. another track
also
Artist
-----Album
-----------d101. Track
-----------d102. another track
-----------d201. another track
-----------d202. another track
Over the years all my albums are stored like this in my hard drives therefore, a simple copy and paste makes them work for me.

Touc Pro 2 going to mobile version of web pages -why???

I love my TP2 (vodafone version) but if I go to any site that has a mobile version it redirects me to that even though I want to see the full version. It is driving me mad.
BBC.co.uk redirects to bbc.co.uk/mobile
telegraph.co.uk redirects to m.telegraph.co.uk
Are others having this problem. I seemed to stop it yesterday after I tried changing the user agent string to a mozilla one but then it has gone back to the original user agent now after I rebooted the phone.
Try using skyfire for your browsing needs it has never done me wrong just dont visit any sites that are too personal like bank accounts and the like, ive benn told its not secure. there should also be a setting that lets you identify your handset as a desktop computer using opera. but ive had that same issue with a reset where i have to go in and set it again. Also just got netfront 3.5 and I havent had too much time with it but its a unique experience .
It has something to do with the browser. Thd symbian OS browser is the same.
Thanks for the tips but Skyfire is OK but nowhere near the browsing an screen quality experience of Opera.
My Experia didnt do this so it is only a setting somewhere but not sure what?
Are you navigating to sites by opening the "Internet" tab on TF3D and entering the URL into the search box at the top of the screen? If you do that, Google picks it up and returns you mobile versions of all the sites. If I put "bbc.co.uk" in there, a page of results comes up, and the first one is "bbc.co.uk/mobile".
To navigate to a page properly, open the "Internet" tab as normal but then click on the great big "launch browser" button (with a picture of the earth). Then select the address box at the top of the screen and enter your URL here instead.
Is that any better?
Nope I am not doing that as I have disabled TF3D because I hate it, but thats another story.
No I am not referring to the search page results and following pages that google formats, I am talking about typing plane old pages into Opera after launching opera from the programs menu.
don't have TP2 yet, but in my FUze opera -> menu -> settings -> display -> uncheck mobile view. that should do it. I'm still getting the hang of opera after using skyfire in the Kaiser.
Yes that is already unchecked too.
I believe that the BBC checks what browser you are using and then directs you to the page it thinks you want to see.
At the bottom of their home page there is a preferences link. Tells you to bookmark the version you are happiest to see.
Guess the Telegraph does the same. That would explain why setting your browser to say it is mozilla gave you the usual BBC page.
No idea on a long term fix except to bookmark! They are getting too clever for their own good!!!
The bbc and others take you to the crappy mobile site even if you dont want it. It drives me mad.
Have you tried going to the URL opera:config in opera and changing the settings there. I don't know if it will overwrite on soft reset but under user prefs there is a Custom User-Agent setting.
You could look at changing that perhaps?
Might be something with spoof useragent ID?
I fould this:
1 = Opera (default user agent string of Opera)
2 = Mozilla
3 = Internet Explorer
4 = Mozilla, Opera not mentioned
5 = Internet Explorer, Opera not mentioned
but that is probably not the whole story!!!
I have changed the max number of open tabs on this page to 4 from 2. following advice from someone here. That worked fine
Yes I make the changes that fix the problem then when I soft reset they go back to the old settings. I reckon it is because it is a Vodafone rom because it always sets it back to a Vodafone user agent string.
Strange, I make the changes in the editor and nothing happens but then I located the opera.ini file that the editor should edit in the \windows\opera folder and I edited it with a text editor in windows then uploaded the edited file. Nothing changed until I rebooted and then it was fine.
I changed my user-agent string to a standard Mozilla one and this has fixed my problem for some sites including the one I wanted to fix the mostbut not the telegraph.co.uk one. They must use something else. Need to play a bit more.
Download Opera Beta 9.7
Works great for me. No re-direction to mobile sites what so ever. There is an option in the settings of beta version to turn mobile view on/off. By default it's OFF.
When I install 9.7 beta on my vodafone TP2 and run it, it hangs and I have to reboot the device.
Sorted!!!!!
Don't you hate it when something so simple doesn't work!
OK, Tested BBC and telegraph after a reset and they both work.
Not my solution entirely but it came from here on the first post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470001
Thank you gtrab.
The issue was that the config tool with opera was not saving the configuration properly so after a reset my opera:config seemed to be going back to an old version. One that I had hacked and broken!!!! ( I have no idea why that one saved and other ones didn't
Solution was to use total commander to get hold of the windows/opera9/opera.ini file and edit this on my computer before replacing back into the opera9 folder
I have gone back to the vodafone useragent
Custom User-Agent=Vodafone/1.0/HTC_Touch_Pro2/1.14.161.5 (50207) Opera/9.50 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en)
Default Spoof UserAgent
Spoof UserAgent ID=1
And it seems the important one
UAProf URL Enabled=0
Now I am getting the web pages as I see them on the desktop. Horah!!!!
Oh awesome thankyou. I searched everywhere for an answer but you found it. I will go and give it a try.

Any way to fully spoof a user agent?

I know dolphin browser HD and skyfire have options to change the user agent in the settings but some sites that I have tried force the mobile version anyways. With that said, is there any method of fully spoofing the user agent to desktop? Any help is greatly appreciated.
"Open your browser, enter "about:debug" (without quotes )into the address bar, then hit the "Go" button on your keyboard—don't tap the search/URL suggestion that comes up. You'll notice that the browser now does, well, nothing. But hit your Menu key, choose the "More" option, then select Settings. Scroll down some, and you'll see a new collection of advanced options there, including a "UAString" option. Click that, then choose between Android, desktop, or iPhone user strings to change what browser web sites think you're visiting with. "
SELECT "DESKTOP"
Try this and see if it works for you.
Sent from my Evo Killer!!!
OP is using Dolphin and Skyfire browsers, which don't need about:debug for UA spoofing.
I could be wrong but I remember reading somewhere that some sites are able to use your installed Flash player to determine that you're not using a desktop browser. I think there was a modified Flash player that worked around that to allow you to view sites like Hulu, but I don't know where one could download it. Maybe search the forums for Hulu Flash player?
Good luck!

How to set or force user agents on some certain links/domain in Edge Mobile on Window

Is there any way to add a rule to Edge Mobile on Windows 10 Mobile to a certain link or domain to set a custom user agent on that domain. So you'll like spoof that domain and show it as if it's in that device. Google usually do this on YouTube and Google Search, they don't let the other devices, platforms or even 3rd party browsers to have like a certain feature or layout. So I want to set it on those domains to get a better card layout on Google Search and better YouTube web app on W10M Edge. is there any way to do this? Like the remote Dev tools? Anything? Any config file built in on Edge like Active X Compability List?

Question Save to PDF not working

Hi,
There is a feature wherein, one can print to pdf from any app which has this feature emabled. Like say from any mail app, one can print an email and system print dialogue opens up and provides an option as "Save to PDF". Earlier this used to save the print in a pdf format. But now clicking on Save icon results in an error "couldn't create file". Is this only happening to me or is it not available anymore on any android device. Can someone provide an alternative wherein I can save certain information via Save to PDF feature.
Many apps I tried from playstore doesn't work as it was available earlier. As soon as I share a web page from chrome to print, the web page doesn't get loaded into the app for pages which are session based which are mostly transactional confirmation pages. Like say making payment for any service or product and trying to take a print of that to save as pdf.
Would be thankful if anyone can help.
Sounds like a bug on Xiaomi's part. Not sure there's a solution. Sorry
I think turning on MIUI Optimisation should do the thing.
