Google and Opera - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Hi,
on my original Orange ROM, opera on www.google.fr was recognized as
a mobile device, but with cooked roms (great laurentius and davideuk),
google didn't recognize me as a mobile device, its show me "normal" google.
I checked user agent with a Orange Rom and is seems the same,
do you have any ideas ?
Regards.
Nicolas

If you want to use mobile google, just use the http://m.google.com link

why with such a great screen rez would you not want full internet? i cant understand?
any way in most builds of opera/ie if you go to options there is an option to show device as mobile/desktop

For instance, even when choosing m.google.com,
the link "find your friends on a map" doesn't appear,
also google doesnt let download any cab
when surfing "manually on m.google.com" (googlemaps, etc),
when mobile device is automatically recognized all these littles stuff works,
The only option I found is "mobile view" which in fact disable scroolling on real web page but doesnt not activate any mobile recognition by web servers.
Nicolas

it looks like he doesnt want to use google mobile but google is automatically redirections to google mobile. my stock vodafone rom does the same, but only with google.

Use Opera Mini, no more need for any zoom, if your monthly fee is based on a MB limit (e.g. 100 MB), then Mini is also interesting because downloads are lesser in size. Speed is also better with Opera Mini (given that size is smaller but also cause the program seems to be less resource-hungry) and Google works very well. In the beginning, the interface feels weird cause you don't have all those gimmicks like zooming, auto-rotating screen, the hardware back button can't be used, the SIP works only in portrait mode, whereas the browser can be either landscape or portrait, etc. However, you have full speed mobile adapted internet and that's something that not even a iphone has.

New Browser.. works great...UCWEB Super Browser v6.0.1

I stumbled upon a new Mobile Browser for our HTC Dash, its called UCWEB Super Browser v6.0.1. While it is still a Beta, it is very stable (has not crached or froze up yet and I've been using it for a few days), it is very fast, has TONS of options and well (I hate to say it) is a bit better then Opera Mobile. It works flawlessly with Google (like Googles new "my location" feature on mobile search, GMail and others where Opera does not work or only half works. Security is very good and its fast as heck in rendering (it renders pages on the device not a remote server) pages and gives you the option of preformating to your devices screen size.
A quick feature summery:
Main Features:
• FREEWARE - Its free cant get better then that
• Adaptation for small screen
• Data traffic statistics
• Visited history
• Domain name quickly input
• Supporting multi-formatted file
• Supporting web local-storage
• Multi-windows browsing
• Page dynamic optimization
• Picture optimizing display
• Shortcut Keys (user defined)
• RSS Feed Subscriptions
• Built in E-mail Client for POP3 and IMAP, full support for attachments
• Comprehensive search features (user definable)
• Download Manager - Resume broken download connections
• Personal Data Manager - Saves web sites to your device, export bookmarks
All in all I give it a solid 9 out of 10 (and its still in Beta)
Check it out here: UCWEB Super Browser v6.0.1 beta
Download the Windows Mobile 5 and 6 CAB file here: UCWEB Super Browser for WM 5 & 6
Crashes Dash on first try will install to phone mem and give a try.
No such luck just shows a black bar @ top and crashes phone
I can't get it to load after installing the cab. Freed up memory and closed everything in task. Hmmm when I get time I'll try again. I checked out the website and phone model not supported. They have a generic option. What phone did you select Keith?
I download the HP -> iPAQ 512 and installed fine.
Could be that the cab Keith upload got corrupted.
*Thanks to NRG for suggesting compatible phone to Dash*

Which one did you go for as there is 2 with different file names?
http://wap.ucweb.com/dl_platform/publish/scripts/mobiledetail.php?project_code=100&mobileid=3000
Or could you just media share the file please.
Thanks in advance
Honestly...you're not hip to the Chinese language?? wow
I honestly flipped a coin and picked 2. lol
Here you go
Update: Although playing with it, not knowing if that is the right picking, it is a bit buggy.
I installed the generic, Java. I like that a whole lot better.
Maybe Keith can enlighten us on picking the right phone for our Excaliburs.
Yeah I installed the java generic earlier today and it worked fine but the Chinese is a killer. It makes you crave rice...
It's quicker than skyfire but not so sure it's faster than mini.
I'll try the HP cab.

Nice one, how did you know which Java one to get? Or was it lucky dip again?
Look @ this for a translation http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translat...pts/webcommon.php&lp=zt_en&btnTrUrl=Translate
rather funny
i didnt download the cab
i did it through wap site on phone
I saw "English" and clicked on it and it translate the steps.
Any idea if this works over t-zones??.....
Visit the wap site with your phone http://wap.ucweb.com . I downloaded mine directly from the wap site and it autodetected my Dash (I run 6.1 Kav by the way) and I had no problems. The above CAB is for WM 5 or 6, I guess it looks like it wont work on 6.1 or perhaps the CAB got messed up on upload.. I'll reupload it.
this is what you want right?
the Dopod 720w is the same as the Dash so this is the version you want am i correct?
also acording to translation the first download link is the most current version where as the second link is last stable.
I find that the fist link does not work however the second link works. (as far as running the programm goes)
i must also say its very beautiful nice find, its fast like opera mini but functional like skyfire of corse sacrific on both but meets in the middle somewhere.
The English version works fine on my HTC Touch Pro (Raphael). Up to yesterday, the file name for HTC Diamond (should be OK for Touch Pro I believe) is:
UCWEB6-61-300-31-08081214.cab
Chinese HTC is re-branded as Dopod or 多普达, Touch Diamand is calleds900.
I love the browser not just because I speak Chinese but for its unmatched features that not found with other browsers. But I don't put all my eggs in one basket, BTW.
It can use vodafone's 3G high speed Internet or Wifi (not USB with ActiveSync ).
The function that I would like to have in future versions is Flash!
Thx for the info on ucweb
thx bupahs ucweb is awesome i like it more than opera mini,more options plus when i edit my cpr file my font is the font for all applications in ucweb ,cool
It took me several tries to get the right version from their website. First I should have scrolled down to where I could switch the language to English. Instead, I downloaded the first one that appeared to be for a Windows Mobile SP. It turned out to be the latest Chinese version and even the chinese characters wouldn't show up on my phone.
Then I installed a Windows version, but I got warnings that it wasn't for my phone. It worked anyways, but I did want to get rid of the warning so I tried again. I recall someone mentioning that the HTC Dash and the Dopod C720W are the same. So I found that particular version and it is really fast! It's amazing as well that it's running natively and not as a Java App.
Uninstalling the other incorrect versions didn't go so smoothly though. The icons remained in Start/Programs. Therefore, I restored my phone from an earlier backup and then reinstalled the UCWeb browser.
Thanks again for this great find!
Thank you,
Tim
Screenshots are a must!!!!
UCWEB....
I downloaded,works great except for streaming videos.Says i need the latest version of flash player....when i try to update,it asks what OS i have.i`m not sure which to pick...I feel stupid but can i get alittle help?A link maybe? Thanks in advance.....
i have to say this is my new favorite web browser.
Definitely a great browser so far! It's quick, renders well, and is very flexible (options-wise).
the only thing i don't like is that i can't see facebook like in opera mini otherwise is awsome
i have the latest version 6.3

I tried to update it manually by extracting and copying just Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe over my existing installation, but it doesn't work. What files do I need to copy to get it work?

Your comparing apples to oranges guy.
so it still doesn't work well with cistom sip. while the page is loading it does,t scroll and pan properly.
any build dump from devices?
wow, this version look REALLY awesome!! the speed is just phenomenal!
this is probably already known, but the deault windows mobile sip always popps up when editing texts, instead of the htc sip. can anything be done with this?
EDIT:
you said this version has no multilingual support. this is great for me (for compatibility purposes) and i might want to do that with other builds too. can you tell me how you removed that support? or is it just inside the build, and that's the way it came?
i have created a workaround for the default keyboard issue popping up.
what you need to do is just disable the "Keyboard" sip, and the opera wouldn't be able to use it anymore, thus not changing your selected sip.
note you wouldn't be able to use the "Keyboard" sip anymore, until you uninstall the workaround.
tested on touch pro only.
just install and SR after.
enjoy.

Hey guys,
I installed this beta and tried to use SSMaPa to replace the Opera icons and what-not on TouchFLO however it has back fired badly. My Opera now does not seem to load properly at all, can I unstall the Opera that comes pre-installed and replace it with the new Beta? Thanks in advance.
Any help on this?
Just install the new version
Ola,
Just install the new version ignore any error msg. Softreset en run Opera. If opera is allready there you got now 2 seperated versions
That's works for me.
And for you... Fingers-x
Let us know if it works or not.
Grtz,

Odd that now Opera (default) has taken over the Beta so I don't have the Beta at all. Can I remove Opera from the system and then use the Beta?
Windows Media plug-in?
With other versions of Opera I have been able to stream and listen to Windows Media content through embedded plug-ins on webpages. With this version the plug-in is replaced with the text "Plug-in content" and nothing happens.
Anyone got any clue as of how I might fix this?
Thanks
Hi,
Is there any trick for having the zoom wheel enabled on HTC Touch Pro / Raphael?
Thx.
I am also very interested in the flash plugin. In the original opera on the HD I could play flash contents as I had installed flashlite 3.1. However with this beta version I just get the placeholder "plugin content". If I go to "Settings / Advanced" the "Enable Plugins" box is checked.
Would really appreciate if anyone could come up with a workaround.
Regards

Exit Internet Explorer

Sorry for the noobish question, but I just got a S621, and I'm trying to figure out why Internet Explorer doesn't seem to have an exit option.
Please tell me there's a way to exit without resorting to the task manager.
Because Microsoft seems to think you want to leave most of their apps running all the time LOL
Use Task Manager to close it when you are done.
Gah. I was afraid that would be the answer. I wonder why they do this on a phone with such limited memory. And whats the point of keeping the apps resident when there's no task switcher? I suppose the recent programs partly serves this function, but it doesn't show which apps are running.
Quite the opposite to Apple's approach - not allowing apps to stay resident on the iPhone, which I believe has at least double the RAM of the s620 & a much faster CPU.
By the way, are there any freeware alternatives to IE that do not require server-based rendering?
Opera Mini.
Download opera mini from the usefull apps post. Its truly amazing.
I still have IE there for certain things like thestreamcenter.com so it knows im on a mobile phone. I use celetask shortcutted to the Tmobile key(nrg rom) to kill it and regain lost ram.
If you are using the tmobile rom I suggest switching off it as fast as you can.
Good Luck.
I'm using the 3VO 6.5 rom. I've used Opera mini before (while traveling in India & China) & I agree it's great, but I'm looking for a browser that renders pages natively, without connecting to a proxy. Is there any freeware one besides IE?
Also, what's the best way to map a button to the task manager with the 3VO 6.5 rom?

I thought it was the red t button on the bottom right of the phone. Thats if your using the same 3vo 6.5 as me...
There's Opera Mobile which isn't freeware but probably the best given the phone's limited memory. Apart from that the options are limited - Iris (free) which is based on WebKit is the other option that is a native browser (not through a proxy) but it's designed for a phone with at least twice as much memory really, so although it'll run, once you start hitting large pages it runs out of memory rapidly. Which is a shame because it's nice.
I use Opera mini unless I absolutely have to use a native browser (e.g. for logging into a wireless hotspot, Intranet etc.). It's remarkable just how fast it renders pages!

Internet Explorer Mobile sites

IE on my mogul used to display mobile.wunderground.com very nicely. On my TP2 it, along with lots of other sites are kinda wacked. Its like the browser window is 3 times the width of the screen, so even on sites that are formatted correctly to be viewed on a small screen, I get a horizontal scroll bar.
I've tried the "desktop/mobile" setting in IE no difference. And I dont like the way opera (both moble and mini) displays sites specific for mobile devices.
On my mogul the user agent is a little different it says IEMobile 7.11, whereas the tp2 user agent has IEMobile 8.12 AND IEMobile 6.0
Even a test page which is nothing more than a index.html file with the word test in it has a scrollbar on my TP2 that has 2 screens of whitespace. .
Is there a registry setting to set the IE user agent? And is there also a setting (registry or file) that reports the window width (like in opera:config)?
Thanks!
You probably have a different IE version installed on the TP2. Google for a newer version.
I'm having this problem too, I prefer PIE for certain sites, but the pages that rendered correctly on my Touch Pro are practically useless for all the scrolling around I'm having to do. Any fix for this?
Same thing here! I thought t was my mind playig tricks on me but the IE on the TP2 is horrible for mobile sites. I too am awaiting a reg hack or something.
There is a Pocket IE download that replaces the mobile IE on our TP2's. I havent tried it as I figured out how to make opera look nicer...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1890124&postcount=2
Then there is IE toggle, which I havent used either,,,
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=65154
So if anybody wants to experiment with either of these, I'd be interested to find out how mobile.wunderground.com looks under each of those options. I've just been using opera so I decided to leave IE stock.

Cool, a new browser. I'm going to try this browser for sure. I'm wondering how fast it is compared to Opera 9.7 and Opera mini 5. Thanks Pekas
with this browser I cann't access my facebook account, I cann't write in password field.
Looks promising. very fast.
Just tried this new browser, am wondering now why it's layout is so similar to Mach5?? They're of over 99% alike of each other except their name...!!???
And they seem to be using the same kind of web proccessing...ie, loading though their server then send to end-user.
Anyway, both Mach 5 and this can load webpage extremely fast. The most important thing is that uZard is free while Mach 5 is NOT.
uZard is great, runs better than any mobile browser i used. I was using Skyfire before, but uZard is better. I only wish they release a WVGA version, they only have vga/qvga for now
WVGA, possible?
First impresion , excellent web pages flash support, real fast , poor YouTube videos with no sound for me.. Totally very very interesting..

Why they look so smilar, may be they just the same software, just look at their folder structure, and execute file description, I can say they are 100% same.
What I am interest to know is the propose of "Logic plant Co, LTD", why they turn a payware into a freeware let people use.
yes, that's what I'm wondering now. In fact I paid for using Mach5, but now I see this new browser that is almost 100% the same....
Anyway, both are much faster, in term of webpage randering, comparing to opera and skyfire. But still, it cannot copletely replace opera or IE mobile. Especially when doing some kinda e-banking or paypal or anything alike.
Will this work with the HTC HD Mini?
