Hi Guys,
Can anyone help me with this problem?
My main browser is Opera however when I click on a link from an app (for example from Pockettwitter or my RSS reader) the web page opens up in Internet Explorer.
I hate having to use IE as the pages never fit etc....How can I change it so that when i click on these links they open in Opera?
Thanks.
anyone help with this?
I thought it would be an easy one!
If anyone else is bothered by the same problem as me this is what you need to do.
Download JZ SmartMort v1.5 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=382043
It does lots of hardcore techy stuff but more importantly for me is that it has an default browser option in it's settings (go to JZ Settings from your programs list, then JZ Browser options, then Choose a Default Browser, select Opera).
See? I told you it would be easy didn't I?
This has been annoying me for ages... thanks for providing a solution - I'm about to give it a go.

Hi,
The default / stock web browser in HTC Desire, is that it?
I found the user interface is not that good
- Is there any easier way to go to the bookmarks instead of pressing the "menu" button then bokmarks
- Is there any way to add FOLDER or GROUP in the bookmark?
Is this HTC limitation or Google Android limitation?
Its a No to all your questions really. What I do is have a folder on my home screen, and then create bookmarks for all my favourite sites and put them in the folder. Then I just need to open the folder and go straight to my bookmarked website. Its fast and easier this way.
Other option is to get Dolphin browser, an excellent browser. It`ll allow one tap of the icon at the top right to access your bookmarks. It uses gestures too so you can set one up for bookmarks.
Have used Dolphin since it was released and its always improving, but I still go back to the default browser as it does a better job of pinch/zoom.
I've recently rooted my Desire and am running DeFrost but I've noticed something different with the web browser. For some reason, I can no longer hide the fact that the browser is a mobile browser which changes the appearance of some websites. I don't like this.
Is there any way around this? I was wondering if my browser before was a HTC one so maybe switching to a ROM like Modaco or OpenDesire's official port would help. Thing is, I'm not particularly fond of Sense.
Also, I read something about there being a way to replace the hosts file so it blocks out the ads. Is this still possible in Froyo?
If you get Dolphin HQ browser from market, you can download a desktop toggles add-on, which switches between android and desktop ID
Will that work for all browsers or just Dolphin?
Or just type in about:debug in the address bar and "go". Then go to Menu > Settings > UAString
This only half works.
Some sites are now intelligent enough that even though you change your user agent to a desktop one that they can work out you are a mobile and redisplay a mobile specific page
about:debug doesn't seem to work in the default Froyo browser.
It's ok. I've found the answer here: http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/...ion/6167-change-user-agent-android-phone.html
When you do about:debug nothing APPEARS to happen, but if you then go into the settings there are more options available.
Quick question.... Chrome is not being 'remembered' as my default browser. So if I use for example Google's widget for internet favourites. Every time it requests me to select a browser. (Chrome or Samsung's stock browser). It never remembers the option even though I set chrome as default.... Anyone else having this issue. Anyway round this? Obviously if won't let me disable the stock browser.
HI Andy,
Did you ever figure this out?

Hi All,
How do I open all app links directly to a browser. Currently I have 3 browsers would like a pop asking for which browser to open the link in. Instead it always opens in web view (inside all in dummy chrome). There's no default browser selected, I don't want a default. I use em all.

In general setting in each app, there is usually a setting for that.
