Force 'real' internet

Hi, is there a way to force Internet Explorer to show normal internet sites, instead of automatically forwarding to a mobile version? for example, www.google.com goes to www.google.com/m
I presume this is something to do with Internet Explorer, rather than the network.
Cheers

It's to do with the site. Your browser forwards information about itself to the site, some sites have code to detect this and offer a mobile version.
The way to stop it is to make sure the browser doesn't forward this information, something that's likely very hard to do with pocket IE (if it's possible at all).

mmm... yeh i did wonder if it worked like that... oh well!

opera is able to identity itself as a desktop browser, try that :_)

ok cool. Thanks
Is it the Opera Mini (Java) ??
-edit- THIS PROGRAM IS AMAZING!

Hi,
No, he is talking abot the Opera v.8.65 for PPC where you can set the Browser to send another browser identification to the requested site. But you can use Sktools as well to change the identification of the internet explorer.

Ok thanks

I used the registry hack to do that but I wouldn't recommend you to use Pocket IE for viewing the desktop versions. Use Opera, Minimo (awfully slow!) or Picsel browser. Picsel Browser is the best but can't be downloaded really 100% legally since it is owned by Samsung and is licensed for Samsung phones. If you don't care then you'll have a very nice browser.

Opera Mini 4.2 (multisigned) as default browser?

I'm using the NRG Rose ROM 1.6. Instead of using the option to install Opera via the option under My Tools\Extras I downloaded the 4.2 multisigned version from Opera's website. This permitted me the option to not have all the security warning show each time.
Now I'm wondering how I can make it the default browser? I tried using a cab file called "WM6 SD OperaDefault.cab" and "WM6 OeraMiniAsDefaultBrowser - WithoutSelectionDialog.cab", but they didn't seem to work, perhaps because they were designed to work with an earlier version of Opera.
Are there any other solutions? Perhaps a registry tweak that I could do manually or something like that?
Thank you,
Tim

how did you get the signed version , cause I've tried multiple times, 4.1 and 4.2 , from my desktop to my phone , and straight into my phone from their site. I keep getting an unsigned version.

I installed the JZSmartmort file and it successfully set Opera mini as the default when I click on links in my email, but.... it doesn't seem to be able to successfully put in the URL once it launches opera mini.
It launches opera mini, then it goes into where it should put the URL in, backspaces out the default www. that opera puts in. Then it fails to paste in the URL that I clicked on. It then returns to the Opera Mini screen and ends after clicking on the opera menu button. Any ideas?
Thank you,
Tim

Did you try the link i placed as it should work you will have to ammened the .mscr's as mentioned later on in the thread, i haven't tryed it but know others have

Always happy to help

Hi,
I tried the JZSmartmort opera launcher and the StartOperaMini: Mortscript by Badbob001. I haven't successfully gotten it to launch links from email or internet shortcuts into Opera Mini 4.2.
In one discussion point, sagementor states:
Originally Posted by sagementor View Post

But I haven't seen any sort of file that references those names. And in the startoperamini.mscr there is no reference to a version, just 4.x .
So at the moment, if I want to launch a link in a received email or associate a sliding panel shortcut with a URL, I have to use slow ol' PIE .
But on a different note, I love the Spb Backup software. I can now play around with this stuff and restore it to it's 'before' state if it really messes things up. I've already restored several times today.
Thank you,
Tim

You don't say what browser your using but if you want a well speedy browser, Opera Mini, open up PIE type in google mini.opera click link it will offer version click bottom where it says alternative version "something like that" then click top download as will be signed and not always ask if ok to connect to net.
Don't use for bank as uses a server for compression........
"PIE is notoriously slow no matter how big your connection, same with Skyfire yes it loads then renders while viewing down page, Opera Mobile is my choice if need a full fledged browser"

PIE = Pocket Internet Explorer so just what you are using
Try Opera Mini as it flys and compresses images so can save on data, like previous use PIE for bank details etc as Opera Mini users a server.

Using Opera with LogMeIn works! and you can zoom in with the Slider Bar

Click on the computer you want to access and the URL https://secure.logmein.com/connect_axtest.asp comes up, logme in will hang displaying a white screen instead of asking for the user name and password, click on the address and replace axtest for mozilla so the address will be https://secure.logmein.com/connect_mozilla.asp and hit enter, in the next screen LogmeIn may ask if you want to install the plugin, just click Skip, and you are done.
Logmein uses the mozilla Java not ActiveX.
This means you can use the slider to zoom in and get a better resolved image to read those hard to see small fonts. If you play around with the LogMeIn zoom and the slider bar together you should be able to get the resolution you want

but the TP2 comes with a fully featured version of remote desktop?
I've used both and RD is definately the better performance wise, just wondering why you'd choose logmein over it?

Maybe it's my age, but one of the PCs I want to control has a 1920 x 1200 display and the text is really. really, small and difficult to read on the TP2. This option lets you zoom in. Also the font on RDP gets a bit screwed up betimes.
My version of the TP2 didn't have RDP, I got a CAB from this great forum to remedy that.

I agree with Tomo. RDP isn't always the best solution especially going cross-platform. I access several OSX, Ubuntu, and Windows interfaces using Logmein which also helps to solve the dynamic IP issues on some systems. While RDP is faster, it also leaves out a lot of control. The Opera browser workaround is ok but I still use the WM client since I get a better refresh and I can also adjust zoom properly with the WM Client.

How do you manage the zoom?

fair enough. I actually also use logmein so am not an rdp fanboy.
I actually like the way LMI handles multiple monitors etc.

Thanks!
Hey Tomo,
thanks, it works pretty fine. I searched all day long for a solution like this.
bye

Hey,
Nicely played Sir.
It seems to work well with Opera 9.7, if it's only Java maybe we can get it working on other devices as well, Symbian? or Opera mini or skyfire? hmh...
Thanks!

I did as you say above and get to the point where I enter my login info, but then it bounces me back to the blah, blah, blah message about "...A Windows Pocket PC 2003 or newer device...." and wants me to download the CAB file again.
I never see the "connect_axtest.asp". The URL I'm seeing / overwritting is https://secure.logmein.com/connect_ce_check.asp could that be my issue?
Please advise...

I can't get it to work either. I get the same https://secure.logmein.com/connect_ce_check.asp page rather than the page referenced above. I changed the link above to /connect_mozilla.asp and I got further than before. I got to the password login for the computer and I was able to select remote control. But when I selected remote control, I was taken to the same page telling me to download the CAB file.

My Sprint TP2 has it at "Start -> All Programs -> Remote Desktop Mobile". Scroll down to the "R"s and you should see it.

Do I have to use 9.7 or will 9.5 work. With 9.5 i've gotten all the way to the PC login but then I only get a white screen that says simply "ip mismatch". On the PC it shows that a connection has been made though.

If I remember correctly, I used IE first (full IE not pocket) using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=198923&stc=1&d=1245870498 to switch, it allows you to toggle between IE and PIE. Then downloaded the LogMeIn CAB. This is a one time only operation. Do this and then try the Opera fix. If this solves the problem I will amend the post to include it.

I am runing WM 6.5 with Opera 9.7.
No problem loging in with Java, it is a bit slower then ActiveX on IE.
I dont have 9.5 to try as it dose not have my local Lang support.

I'm pretty much in the same situation. I'm running Opera 9.5 and I really don't want to install the 9.7 Beta.
Speaking of the Opera 9.7 Beta, how stable is it? The last update was over a month ago. Are they're any release date rumors??

Bump it up.

I think that is a problem with the PC, try connecting on a normal PC to LOGMEIN..
Anywho I am using this method for some 2-3 weeks now and it works 100% on a daily basis..
thx alot guyz!

Original Pocket Internet Explorer Help

I upgraded my Dash's rom to Love 6.5 v6.30 and it has Pocket IE 6. It is now not opening properly. I do not want to reflash my phone. I would like to find a proper cab for either IE 5 or 6 or a working WAP browser.
I don't have a data plan and I use Pocket IE to access the few free WAP sites T-Mobile offers. I have tried using UC Browser but I just can't seem to get it configured properly.
Can someone help please.
