Need help from Android pro users - Desire General

Hi, I've a problem when try to open a website link with a colon ":" it won't appear the link. (eg: http://xxxx.xxxx.com:81) This is my first time using Android phone. My previous phone was N97. I didn't have the problem open the link. Any Android pro users know how make the default browser work. Thx.

I don't know the answer to your question, but isn't it easier to just try a different browser? Like Dolphin or Steel or Opera Mini?
Maybe one of those can do what you want

colon and port work on my phone stock browser

Thx Stafflover for your reply. I've opera mini & it works.

That is sweet browser. It works for me both Wifi and Cellular network.
I have been using for about a week. I had sporadic problems using Edge with LVWS Rom and now with the Cingular 2.0 Black Rom I have no problems.......so far
Thanks for posting this, works great. Have to say it makes reading the forum easier from my phone. Using it to post this reply.
yeah, must agree, except that it does not work on some sites, this browser is head and shoulders above the rest. Great for reading.
Great
This is a great browser - nice and slick.
Plus it seems to be better for viewing PDF's than any other viewer i've tried

Not just SEEMS to be better at viewing PDF's, it is faster and slicker than any other PDF software and everyone should install it for the PDF capabilities alone - it is a bonus that it is a great web browser and views files of many different types
I've tried to install/re-install the program in main memory and Storage card. But tried to launch the Picsel Browser - keep getting "Initialisation Failure". Can anyone help ????
Might make a good pdf viewer, but its a piece of sh*t for a browser...works, but too much funky zoom/pan bs.
I absolutely love this application.
has anyone tried to login to myspace with this browser? It seems that this browser cuts part of the webpage, the part where I would login !

Could be a corupt file.
Try downloading it again.
It should work.
It may not be perfect, but its refreshingly different! I like it... thanks for the CAB

Thanks for the advice. But I have tried many time to reinstall/redownload ( also from other sites) but still encountered the "Initialisation Failure " error. I've also cleaned the direcory/registry/notification queue too but still not working. It's a pity - I would like to try out this program.

Yup, I have the same issue. Its a nice browser, fast and all but has some problems with rendering full page.
yeah, I definitely like the concept Of this browser. If the rendering problem could be fixed, I would dump opera mini and netfront in a heartbeat!
i like this app too, really nice.
someone has tried to browse a youtube video? i think this are flash movies, so i have installed flashplayer 7 (adobe(macromedia)), but the site alwayr return: Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Flash Player.
anyone knows how to solve this problem?

Thanks guys, brings me back to the Sony UX50 days, a very capable browser.
I found out that the browser can only reach internet by using WIFI. when i tried to use cellular line, it did not work.

Yes, you need to replace the current opera executable with that of the 9.7 install (rename the old one and give the new one the original name).

Have a look at the settings, if not in the menu settings than type opera:config in your address bar.

Yes, would also like to know how to get this working!!!
id also especially like to see the zoom bar working.
Also i'd like it so that when focus is added to the address bar it doesn't automatically open the on screen keyboard (in landscape) and the physical keyboard is obviously out as it's in landscape.

I'm sure it doesn't There is hardly any discussion on 9.7 in that thread, so how could these specific questions related to 9.7 be answered there?

[Q] [SOLVED] Movie Editor for Android (like iMovie)

Movie Editor for Android (like iMovie)
Hello everybody,
I'm new to this great Device, and now i have a question:
Is there a Movie Editor App for Android that works on the Desire HD?
And with Movie Editor I mean not the online Youtube Editor!
Hope someone has the answer,
Thekn
Nope not currently. I'm also searching but there is no luck!
I use Vidtrim Pro which is good but all that does is trim the video but at least its a start lol

Also tried this and FC's on me... Did try the flashable .zip but didn't work, got an error while flashing
So still no video editor for me, well not yet...
Just installed
Its so funny.. i tried just from interesting and GUYS.. ti works PERFECT!!... i mean at my Galaxy TAB.. ... its so fun and so fast... i remember it from my beloved galaxy s and at my tab is mutch mutch faster... and exports to 1280x720p very stable and fast...
thanks to the creator of the thread now my TAB is an video editor machine
Just one litle problem though.. it plays at 800x480 and at upper left corner. Its not a real problem but i think if samsung made it for galaxy tab at full screen that would be a DREAM!

[HOW TO] Creating custom LOCAL homepage for stock web browser (updated)

Hi,
Here I show you how to create custom local homepage for the stock web browser.
So, basically, when you start the web browser, it will load this custom web page.
This is very useful, for example: You can create quick shortcuts for all your frequent visit of websites.
(1) Download the attached "bookmark.zip" and put it in the a folder, for example \Download
(2) Extract the content, for example in \Download\bookmark
After this second step, you can access \Download\bookmark\bookmark.html
(3) Open the stock web browser, go to:
Settings --> General --> Set homepage
(4) Choose "Other"
(5) Set to:
file:///sdcard/Download/bookmark/bookmark.html
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There you go!
You can modify the bookmark.html as you pleased.
bookmark.zip has been updated.
Disable page zoom added:
Remove the "initial-scale=1" in the bookmark.html as shown here:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0"/>
There is already a most visited sites option in the browser so I'm not too sure why I would want to do this?
Admittedly this isn't really needed, but is quite cool. I've just started learning html/css. So I will have a play with it later.

Because this is the fastest way to get all your favorite websites!
Start the web browser and it is all there, right in front of you ... With all the thumbnails, ready to visit
There, two clicks you got the page.
Even better, when you go back by clicking the back button, you will see all those shortcuts again
Efficient ... Fast ...
And ... You can customize the way you want!
On the other hand, your way is too slow.
You need to start the browser, long click the back button, click the most visited, and you might need to scroll ...

Incorrect. There is a 'most visited sites' homepage you can assign in the settings. Plus if you want to talk about efficiency for certain sites why don't you just add a bookmark widget to the desktop?
i will try this.thank you
Right, you right about that most visited as homepage ...
But, the order can change at any time depending on your frequent visit. Also, I dont like the white background that consume more battery power.
With my way, I can have fixed loaction of thumbnails which for sure easier to navigate.
And because of that, we can have flexibility to arrange the thumbnails the way we want
Bookmark widget ... problem is that I must swipe to that home, and I dont like to clutter my launcher! Dont forget that widget consume more memory and might slow down your launcher if redraw is required!
So, still, my solution is better, faster, more flexible

Alright you win . Have you tried allowing the table to use 100% instead of defining the number of pixels?

Hi,
See the attached screenshot.
Do you know how to format the <table> or use CSS so it will utilize the whole screen?
I set the <table> width to 720px but that does not help.
So, please please please ... if you are HTML/CSS expert ... help us!
Thank you
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Is this what you mean???
<table> width 100% does not work.
But, I found it ... We need to prevent "zoom" which can be done using this:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0"/>
bookmark.zip has been updated in the first post.

Can I say what I want to say at here?
Updated, remove the "initial-scale=1" in the bookmark.html as shown here:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=0"/>
This will give you the correct view

Hello, maybe you should give an example of page with link that do not work ...
The link would be for something thatbis frowned upon by this website if you get my drift.... As in a d f l y websites

Maybe some "weird" redirections on those website generating potential "infinite loops"
that are stopped by "smart" browsers to avoid "bouncing"
The url you see on your address bar is not always the "true" url you're going to.
Some paremeters can be "hidden" (POST) and can cause some other behaviours.
That's what make you think the url is correct if typed directly.
If you were browsing those links recently without problems,
it looks like more of a website issue/modification than an HOX issue ...
