I must say i'm not impressed much with the web browsing on the TP2. the default Opera program is a pain in the ass. firing up the internet explorer only leads to non-'fit to screen' viewing.
anyone who remembers the tried-and-true internet explorer on the mogul. Have you figured out how to get that out of the TP2?
any help is appreciated
Try this Cab, it enables you to switch between Pocket Internet Explorer and IE6. You are wanting Pocket Internet Explorer.
I did not author this cab, I did find it here on XDA somewhere.

Hello,
We are developers of a Wireless Sales Automation Software for Windows Mobile. We recently had a situation of one of our clients’ employee using the equipment to access porn sites with the browser. We were wondering if there is a way to safely delete IE from the Windows Mobile and still allow internet access with our application.
Thanks
Guillermo
I don't think its possible because afaik windows mobile integrate ie in the ROM. and even if u did manage to delete it, users can still access it through opera or install some third party internet browsers... so best is block those porn sites thru ur internet gateway. good luck.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
thanks....
The good thing is the employees using the equipment aren't very computer savvy. They are sales persons, so maybe I could try deleting the shortcuts to the IE executable.
Thanks
another thing... the users connect directly to the internet via the cellular company, so they do not pass-thru any of our gateways.
maybe there is some netnanny kinda software for pocketpc i would look into it if i were you
also who in their right mind would bother with pr0n on the ultra slow gprs network?
i mean all the popups and such from those sites would have the xda needing a softreset in no time
if they are really computer morons then maybe just removing the IE shortcut from start bar and programs would be enough ?
or you may run your software in a kiosk mode. This would prevent user from running anything else. Search for "spb kiosk" in google.
I have looked all over the internet, both on this site and through google, I even shot over to howardforums for a few. I know I saw the solution somewhere, but all my searches are filled with bbc connection probs, not internet connection probs. Heres whats going on... I have the TNT2 rom, I changed the aku version in my registry to .3.7.1 and installed Blackberry Connect 4.0.0.90. Everything there is working fine. The problem is that Internet Explorer will not work. I knew this was a possibility cause I read it on this forum somewhere. I installed Opera Mini browser and then my PC crashed and I lost my bookmark that showed how to make it connect through blackberry connect. Does anyone have the link to the page that shows how to get it to share the existing BBC connection instead of it trying to create its own? Or know how to do it? I went to Start>Settings>Connections>Advanced>Select Networks & changed both dropdowns to My Blackberry, then went to the MidLet manager and set the network on Opera Mini to My Blackberry, and it gives me this error...
Error
Failed to connect to the Internet.

Someone please Help!!!
Thanks.
You can only connect to the special Internet browser that is in the Blackberry folder under programs using BBconnect,, so when you click on to that Icon, you will get the IE explorer.. When your IE explorer comes up,, just go and locate your favorites, and voila.. It is a reconfigured IE explorer (the BBconnect installation does that to your existing Ie explorer). Total Manipulation,, browsing really is the pits using that Internet explorer. So, I advise using Opera (you can actually install on your SD card,), or Opera MIni(I put mine on my main memory). I really do love the Opera Mini (saves ykou lots of money on Data and is really neat, especially the new version).. Set up in connections a normal data connection with your carriers setup, and when you are either going to Opera or Opera MIni you should automatically be turned on to that new data connection GPRS (different than your BBconnect data connection).. Make sure for example, when in Opera Mini,for network settings, you choose the new gprs connection that you just set up, so it will connect properly when you go and connect. Unfortunately, the BBconnect really screws things up for internet connections, and it really is a pain in the butt,,because I have to go to BBsettings sometimes, to suspend the bbconnection, so as I can get either Gprs or Wifi connection, because BBconnection is always trying to connect otherwise. Supposedly, the Internet browser in that BBfolder is supposed to be compressed data, but I haven't seen much compression going on! and bringing up data is slow as molasses.. At least this is all my experience.. If anyone else would like to add to what I said or shed some more light on the subject,, please by my guest. Let me know , if you need any more help
my issue has been now that BBC is installed, I cannot use any other data connection, and no program will use the BBC connection. Also, when you mention that you're using opera, do you mean the full version you'd normally put on a pc? If so, does it have the drag to move feature that mini beta does? Thank you.
I think I figured out part of it. Theres a registry tweak to get IE working again, the problem is that it creates a new connection instead of using the BBC connection. Does anyone know how to get everything (especially opera mini) to run off the blackberry connection? I think it doesn't work right cause of the proxy.
hi to all, im always wondering if is there a way to add a network folder to the file explorer, to access my shared folders in my pc.
what can i do?
thank u!!!
You can try Resco File Explorer
GSfinder will do it. Its free i think. RescoFile Explorer will also do it...I find that resco freezes a lot and is slow but it has excellent reviews. I personally use GSfinder.
thx! ill try both resco file explorer and gsfinder.
by the way what is HTC network plugin?
HTC network plugin is just what you want.
It works fine on my Hermes.
Could u go into a little more detail on network plugin does, and maybe where to get it.
If you need resco send me a pm.
seems that htc network plugin adds a folder to the file explorer, and you can specify the network it connects. i think....
its posted somewhere in the xda forum.
