Has anyone seen this?

It's supposed to be a html5 based web application for google voice. Do we have a capable browser for this thing?
Interesting question. According to this some html5 capabilities are available to winmo user via Opera Mobile + Google Gears.
If you try it, let us know if it works.
i just use PIE and have it identify itself as mobile device and go to voice.google.com directly, while no dialpad is there you can still type in the number or text from the page directly

Hi,
I am using NFSFAN's V15 ROM and I also use a gmail java app that accesses my gmail account. Let me first start out by saying that the reason I use the java gmail app is because I cannot find a .cab file installation version of it and I need to preserve email message threading. I know most people use the default mail client but I sometimes get 20 or more responses to one email message and it creates a huge inbox mess, hence this is only one of the main reasons why I use the gmail java app and not the default mail client. Now that thats out of the way, here is my problem:
When I am in the java gmail app and reviewing a message with a website hyperlink in it, if I click on the hyperlink, I immediately get a Yes/No pop up dialog box asking me if its okay to open that website. If you select yes or no the dialog box reappears immediately and the same loop starts ever until I am forced to take the battery out and restart the phone. Can anyone fix this? I wonder if IE Mobile 6 is what is causing the problem, it works fine on my stock ROM that has the older version of IE Mobile but it will not work on the WM6.5 ROM that uses IE Mobile 6. I really want to point it to use Opera Mobile instead of IE Mobile 6 but it does not give me that option. Yes, I have Opera Mobile set as my default browser and yes the "Set Opera as default browser" option within Opera Mobile is checked on but this java program just will not open Opera and I am very puzzled by this problem. I cannot find anyone talking about this issue on any other threads for the Vogue, here at XDA, so I decided to create this thread. Does anyone know how to fix this?
PS - Here is a download link to the java gmail app if anyone wants to take a crack at this:

Thanks

Reading this a bit late for research but here's the good news.
Microsoft has announced that the new mobile office and outlook exchange shall incorporate threaded email.
I had a link to it to download the new outlook mobile, I'll search for it again and post if I find it.
I have Xperia with Opera browser and I am unable to run google maps. If I visit their page the maps never load. I tried to see the maps using IE too but without success? Do you have any idea where may be the problem? Thanks
opera mini can't view complex pages, it's made for quick internet searching of easy framework sites (like xda-developers)
if you want google maps use the windows mobile program it's free.

Yes, I have the windows mobile software and it is working fine. When I need to see only the maps or use them for navigation, it is great solution. However, there are some websites which use google API to show some points of interests using google maps. These points of interest cannot be seen using the windows software. An example of such site is geocaching.com where is possible to see the map of the geocaches. This is possible to see only using the browser.
I don't know if a direct solution exists, but I'd recommend using a geocaching app in concert with gmaps. See here for such an app. Hope this helps.
Have you tried Opera Mobile?
Try SkyFire. its notg as smooth as opera when fliping a page but it displays the pages identicali to pc. runs flash video in the page itself.
Anyone who uses Chrome on their PC will know what I mean when I say is there any Android browser that allows you to search different websites from the navigation bar? For instance in desktop Chrome if you want to search youtube for Lady Gaga you just type in "youtube.com Lady Gaga". Is there any Android web browser with that kind of functionality? Android Chrome doesn't seem to do it.
Thanks for any help.

I use the stock browser and Chrome in that way with no problems. I think, there is something wrong with your settings.
I just reinstalled Chrome on my phone and typed in "youtube.com Lady Gaga" and it didn't work, it just searched on Google. Is there a setting you have to turn on?
As far as I know, the mobile version is fairly new and didn't see any options to enable it. Desktop chrome came with it already functional. The only mobile variation I found was using Firefox w/ the youtube add-on. Which sucks because I hate Firefox.
I love the dolphin browser you should try that one not sure what you are trying to do.

In Chrome on desktop, you can / have to go to options / search settings and set up these shortcuts (if not already present). I've only just started with new Android device - I assume there is a similar place to set such on handheld. e.g. On my desktop, type 'w' 'p' '<space>' auto-changes the address line to 'search wikipedia' (or like wording). I assume you see the same on your desktop when you type 'youtube.com', as per your message.
If nothing else, you can do '"lady gaga" site:youtube.com", in the mean time.
Guys, I love my Surface RT but the only thing that's missing for me is, well Google chrome of course, but since we can't get that (yet) I wonder if there is a translate function within IE just like Google chrome? Or is there a plugin available which I can install by jailbreaking my device?
I know that I can translate a website via Google translate website but its not working correctly for me.
Desktop-mode only, but IE has a feature called "accelerators" that let you highlight some text, then click a button (or press-and-hold or right-click on the text) and translate it, search it, map it, whatever. It's had this for about as long as Google Chrome has even existed, in fact! By default it uses the Bing services, but that's fully customizable. Tools -> Manage Add-ons -> Accelerators -> Find More Accelerators... will let you get to the Google ones, for example

Amazing both of them works better than via Google translate. Still waiting on a function like Google Chrome that translates it automatically but for now this option with the bookmark is the best!
Fingers crossed for a browser choice in win8.1
Is there any way to add a rule to Edge Mobile on Windows 10 Mobile to a certain link or domain to set a custom user agent on that domain. So you'll like spoof that domain and show it as if it's in that device. Google usually do this on YouTube and Google Search, they don't let the other devices, platforms or even 3rd party browsers to have like a certain feature or layout. So I want to set it on those domains to get a better card layout on Google Search and better YouTube web app on W10M Edge. is there any way to do this? Like the remote Dev tools? Anything? Any config file built in on Edge like Active X Compability List?
