Did a hard reset and going through the painful process of setting everything up. I did keep a .doc file with all my settings in it, and that has helped. One annoying problem though.
Opera is very strange. Mobile websites do not appear as they normally do. They come up very small, and I have to zoom and center them in to be able to read them. Anyone know a setting to ensure that Opera sees a mobile website as a mobile website?
Some are working fine. m.cnn.com is ok, others such as m.google.com show up incredibly small and do not fit the screen as they normall do.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

You are a rock star. I could not figure that out at 1.00 am.
Thanks!

On a related note, I cant seem to figure out how to make links in emails open up in opera. I changed the registry setting, and the manilla settings, but links in emails still open in IE.

hey, for some reason i cant log in to facebook using pocket IE. any ideas why? is there some other browser i can use that would work? if so, how do i get it? thanks
omar
I assume you mean the mobile version of it. It used to work. No idea why it stopped. I just go to the standard version now. PITA. Maybe the carrier?

Nope, its Internet Explorer. Bookmark this link and you should be good to go...
http://www.facebook.com/login.php
If that does not work. Go on your PC and login. Use the sub-link that is placed before facebook.com and replace the www above with it.

U can also clear ur history and temporary internet files. And make sure u get the security warning. Once u get it, ur good to go. At first i thought it was Gmail but it seems its a IE thing.
edit: It is a gmail thing. At least for me. Scroll to bottom and click "view in HTML" and u'll get security warning.
loggin into facebook is the easy part, but can you post on walls? I've had no luck doing that
The mobile version of the site is far better.
http://m.facebook.com
Mobile Facebook is great. I just got on it today because they recently did a redesign which is making it a pain to view in Pocket IE.
I also have problems logging into m.facebook.com but I usually get to the login screen and then use the link at the bottom of the page to do a standard login. The only thing that annoys me is that if I use my P990i instead I stay permanantly logged in on it, whereas my MDA Mail (UK Spec) keeps on logging me out grrr.
If you're having trouble getting the login at m.facebook.com to work, try this link instead:
http://m.facebook.com/login.php?http&next=http://m.facebook.com/home.php
Bookmark that, and you'll be good to go. It basically forces you to the HTML login page instead of the WAP login, but keeps you on the mobile interface to save data.
Internet & MMS not working, after Tmobile settings set properly(?) (Tzones), RegEdit?
I used a cab file called "tmobyjoe599" to set my internet settings on my 8525 flashed with Faria's 6.1.
I am able to get to google, but when going to any site like m.myspace.com, etc, it locks on "connecting..." and the circle freezes. I can close the IE app, but then the OS gets sloow, and it doesn't ever end the IE task when I attempt to. Short of a soft reset, the device gets frozen.
When sending an MMS message, it gives me a sending envelope icon with an arrow, showing it's leaving, with a progress meter that gets to 95% then stops. Never goes past that.
I was messing with some Regedit keys for the server for the weather app and may have messed something up that way. Is there a way to reset these settings short of a Hard Reset?
Is there a valid cab file that will set the Tzones $5.99 plan internet & mms settings for WM6.1 for an 8525? I see settings all over this site and others, but none seem to be in the right places/settings menus as my load?
Much appreciated... I read this forum constantly, but hardly ever post.

Yeah. I have the cab for the 5.99 and the 29.99.
The 39.99 never worked for me so I don't use it anymore. The 29.29 version works perfectly for me. I like the fact they make the allowed mms size larger.
Here you are. Enjoy.
Oh yeah. In the future you probably want to do a search and it will show. I'm sure you'll get that response from many a veteran around here.
Please note, I have already used the tmobyjoe599.cab file (I have it on my storage card), and even after a hard reset, after setting this cab, this is when I experience the lockup issues. Running this .cab doesn't reset the registry server settings, does it?

I don't know. You may be forced to either do a hard reset or reflash your rom.
Use Pim Backup 2.8 to back up all your data and do a hard reset. Then rerun the settings cab of your choice and see what happens.
Your registry changes may be the problem.
did you use advanced config or any other app to change the IE cache/cookies location to your SD card? I have seen your exact symptoms caused by this.. try setting them back to the default location
Did PIMbackup. I'll ck advancedconfig program to make sure I didn't change anything in there... Been in there a few times, not sure if I did.
After that, if it's still not resolved I will hard reset, then do the tmobyjoe599 cab, and see if it works and report back.
I checked Locations tab of advancedconfig and the Default storage location for downloads, ie cache location, ie cookies location and ie history location were all pointed to sd card. I reset those to device, and will ck shortly.
Internet works now you guys rock.
hummm i need step by step i guess
I downloaded the cab file for my t-zones, and it worked..only problem was that its slow and certain web sites cant be shown, mainly web sites with a password like gmail and a few others, how do I fix this?
Hi all,
I've done a search, but I cannot find a solution for my problem. I've been using Opera Mini a long time and I had no problems on my HTC Wizard. I've recently been using my Dash more, and I have used Ricky's ROMs and Kavana's. I finally tried to Synchronize Opera to get to my bookmarks, and I ALWAYS get the message that Authentication Failed (in either of their 6.1 ROMS). It appears that I can't login to any sites. The only other unusual behavior is that if I go to live.com I get some foreign language, as if though my regional settings are off (but I checked and they seem to be US English and other sites are fine). The key mappings appear to be right as the letters and numbers show up okay, but I cannot log in to any site. It appears as if it is some sort of forms or Java error, but I dunno, those are only guesses. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Mark
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Can anyone else "Synchronize Opera" with these ROMs?

I may be wrong since I don't use live.com, but I thought it's normal to be in a foreign language? On opera mini, which version do you have, the unsigned or signed version? I'm assuming you have 4.1.
I don't know about live.com - I didn't notice it until after I had this problem, but searches have given evidence others have seen similar behavior. Anyway, the version is 4.1 as you guessed. I have, btw, determined it is an input issue of some sort but I cannot figure out why or what the long term fix is. By going to a form in Opera Mini and then holding down ALT+SPACE, a menu popped up which allowed me to switch from x9t or whatever to abc, and I was able to log in. It appears to not hold over a reboot, though.
The behavior is really, really strange. It acts like it has the wrong keyboard mapping in Opera mini, but switching back to mobile IE the keys all match properly.....
Hi there,
I just got myself the Touch Pro2, having been a user of the Touch Diamond for somewhile and enjoyed that phone. However, I have been having some challenges with the TouchPro 2 and questions and am hoping that someone here could help
1. The task manager at the top right corner. This usually lists the programs that are running. However, with the TP2, I noticed that once Opera is loaded, it does not show up there but is still running. So if I want to close Opera, I am not sure how to as previously, I just needed to click on the "x" next to it. The other program that is behaving in the same manner is ActiveSync. It does not show up there either. Has anyone have the same issue?
2. When I try to add contacts to the people tab, it will bring up the list of contacts with a alphabetical index on the right side. However, when I click on any of the alphabets, say "D", it does not bring me to my contacts starting with "D" but rather to somewhere in the middle of "C". This goes the same for any alphabets. Does anyone have the same prob?
Thanks!
For your first question
Some apps aren't meant to be closed like the phone app or activesync. They always run in the background. As for Opera, I don't know, but maybe it's neccesary for the push internet thingy to work?

I could close the activesync in my diamond previously but not in TP2.
Hmm.... push internet, it could be a reason but still find it odd that it's not listed as an item on the task manager.

Hello all,
In the past week, Opera does not want to stay signed in/logged in to any website, including this one.
Example: I go to my iGoogle page, which should normally just come up, but I need to log in. I log in, my page shows up, great. Then I want to go to Gmail from ny iGoogle, and I have to sign in again. If I want to read an e-mail, log in again. If I want to reply to the e-mail I'm reading, log in again. Just to write this question, I had to log in twice, and I'll probably have to to submit it as well. It's getting annoying.
I have no such problems with Skyfire or the built-in IE. I haven't changed any settings, always make sure I check "stay logged in" if the option is available. I did clear cookies and cache about 2 months ago, but there was no difference until last week. The only things I have added lately were a few of brent's coloured icons. I use Clean Ram almost daily, have for months, and have soft reset at least once a week.
I have a Telus TP2 (CDMA), original ROM, using Opera that's built in.
If anyone knows or has suggestions, they would be appreciated.

I'm not positive on this one, but I'd suspect that Opera's "turbo mode" might be stripping your saved login info...it routes all website data through their servers, so there's a chance that login info won't be persistent through that. To disable that for testing this, just select the "options" menu in Opera, and then un-select the "Opera Turbo" option near the top...then see if once you login one more time, it still doesn't retain that for you.
Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't change a thing. Had to log in 3 times just to get to this page, very frustrating.
Side note, the "options" menu wasn't where you said it was. I still found it using the search function in "opera:config". Maybe my particular build of 9.5.
Anyone else care to take a shot at it? Or should I just go to a newer version of Opera, and will it overwrite the existing one so it's the default?

Ahh yes I'd assumed you were on 9.7 or higher, didn't realize any versions of the TP2 had 9.5 as the default version.
As I understand it, installing any version of Opera subsequent to the one installed by default on your stock ROM will actually create a completely new discreet install of the new version, and the original will still be on there...that's what happend when I installed 10.
More info can be found on my signature link
Thank you, orb3000, however, you have more than one clickable link in your signature, one of them I obviously was able to eliminate. The Opera thread has 186+ pages, and while I would love to have the time to slog through it, even a search of it yielded no results for my particular predicament.
A hint on approximately which one of those many pages would be appreciated.
