Ok, PIE6 is pretty cool and all, but stupid Sprint makes us go to their WAP site to view an MMS. With PIE6, the website doesn't go to the WAP version, but the desktop version, even if I have Mobile view on in the view setting for PIE. Anyone have any idea to fix this? I can still retrieve picture mail, but it's like going to the full version of the site, and it gives to a zip file with the picture in it, and yeah, long story... Anyone know how to make the site think I'm still on PIE5? Or simply make it go to the WAP version?
(It might have something to do with the User Agent setting, but this new version of IE uses a different format for settings, in the registry.)
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Problem solved, Run the attached CAB.
Works great even with Opera. Thanks for sharing!

Let me start by saying I've searched and cannot find the answer...
Does anyone know if it's possible to view an email attachment on the DASH? I am using the phone with Cingular service, and have MediaNet through Cingular. If I go to either Yahoo! Mail, Hotmail, or gmail, if I have an email with an attachment, I see the attachment there, but do not know how to view it. If I click on the attachment, it simply takes me to a new page with the file name of the attachment.
Is there no way to view this and is this why everyone is trying to get BB service on their DASH? I know someone with an 8700c and I changed a setting in the 8700 (Windows emulator of some sort?) to be able to view/download attachments.
Why can't I view attachments with my DASH if it already has Windows on it?
Sad but true; i don't think this is possible.
Hey guys anyone else know anything about this?
Using ProfiMail
I am using ProfiMail (albeit on against a POP account); but am able to read HTML messages and download and open attachments (if I have the viewer software on my phone -- e.g. pdf, word, etc.)
First, I really like this ROM. Everything is running great but for one thing. If I try to send a text msg to an email account it errors with a sync error. I have checked and all of the SMS server numbers are correct. Thanks to wmbears cab all the other settings are in and correct. I have WAP and MMS access, just the SMS problem. Has anyone else encountered this and if so could you point me to a fix.
Thank you,
Steel
I would suggest using a more recent rom.
Also, the guy that made the black roms, JasJammin, is more active on another website: 4WinMobile.com.
If you are in the switching mood, I highly recommend edhaas' T-lite or Super D-lite. They are speedy, solid and have oodles of storage.
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.
I know some of us were having problems setting Opera to default through the Opera settings, so i set out to figure a way around it. So now when you go to your internet tab, you can go straight to Opera instead of to the programs list.
heres how:
-open your Registry Editor
-navigate to HKCU/Software/HTC/Manila
-change value in DefaultBrowserIsIE from "1" to "0"
-change value in Internet.SetOperaForeground from "0" to "1"
click save. and youre good to go.:].
glad i could contribute to the website. .
Good looks!
What about when you click a link from your email? IE still launches from links that leads to the browser.
Worked like a charm! Thanx OP! Anyone daring enough to test the push internet keys listed in there?
Nice going awesome find!

This is for T-Mobile TP2's only. T-Mobile always ****s things up.
But to the one that asked, links in E-Mails go through the default browser, which is now Opera Mobile.

How do we change those bookmarks? I don't know how, they seem to be tied to the IE browser favorites. Can they be edited or linked to a different location?

Go into Opera Mobile, and in the address bar (clear out everything), type in opera:config and press enter.
You can go through the settings there. I think it's under Advanced? I forget. But check the box for default browser. Then save the settings and close out of Opera Mobile. Now see if it's default. You might have 2 repeat that a few times for it to take effect, for some reason. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547750)

THANKS! Took about 4 times but it finally took!
maybe if you try deleting them, and then choosing your favorites in Opera. Then maybe they'll go to the Internet tab? worth a try. .
Yeah let us know how that went.
EDIT: How do you delete the bookmarks? I removed all the favorites from IE. I still see CNN, ESPN and Facebook. How am I able to add my own?

I am already using total commander to edit the registry, just thought I would ask since its some what related to this topic and the modification of the tf3d internet tab..
Is there any way to change the start page in Internet Explorer to about:blank instead of the stupid web2go for TMobile? I can't find the setting anywhere. Is there a registry key I can edit?

No , that is not possible for the time being .
IE has a default page on Tmobile... mine(ATT) just opens the last page I was viewing or a blank page.
yeah, i have the hd7 and i don't get the web2go website, I get a blank page.
Maybe that is the euro hd7???
Mine opens to a blank page. I did uninstall the T-Mobile app on it however, not sure if that did it.

that might be it, I uninstalled pretty much all the t-mobile crap (t.v., nav, family)
simply delete the IE from you homescreen and pin your favorite website as a favorite to it.
