i upgraded to the 6.1 ROM today. it kicks ass!! thanks everyone. i have one question. is there a setting so that when i'm using the internet i go to the "regular" website rather than the mobile version?
when using wm6.0, i could log into my yahoo account and it was the same as the site on my desktop pc. now, after installing wm6.1, i get directed to yahoo! mobile which doesn't have all the features of the pc version. specifically, i can't check my realtime fantasy baseball stats for the day.
do i need to change something in the connection setting for IE?
thanks.

I don't use IE that much, so I can't help you there. But I can recommend using Opera Mini (free), Opera Mobile (not free) or signing up for the Skyfire Beta (free). Also do a search for Deepfish on this forum, get the cab and try that, it may work.
If im not mistaken....Deepfish needs an activation code. That code is provided by Microsoft.
we have deepfish on this forum?
and the same thing happens in opera mini on some sites...ive managed to trick it inot skippin the mobile mail layout but other segments are in wap format.
i just downloaded opera mobile, and opera mini...opera mobile won't open on my dash...i click the icon and it flashes the opera mobile screen for like 1/10th of a second then goes back to my homescreen.
opera mini gives me the same issue...it opens yahoo! mobile.
i'm thinking something in my connection setup is letting yahoo! know that im accessing via a mobile. can i change something in my connection setting to trick yahoo! into thinking i'm accessing from a pc?
thanks again.

If I'm not mistaken, I've downloaded Deepfish from xda before and used it(shhhh!), but it wasn't on my blackjack, that was on my Wizard. I prefer opera mini.
no not your phone, its yahoo
Actually on Opera Mobile you can, if you go into menu->tools->General->scroll to "identify as" switch to desktop computer.
Then hed over to www.yahoo.com
You're usually sent to the mobile version of the site. I wish I can remember the actual link to the desktop page but I can't. I had it on my favorites before I flashed my phone. Sry dude. There is a page you can go to though.

i re-installed opera mobile and it seems to work this time.
thanks...
however, if anyone knows if i need to change my proxy settings or whatever (noob alert) so IE will go to "regular" yahoo!, please let me know. i don't want to have to pay for opera mobile after the 30day trial expires.
I would recommend using Opera Mini. This program kicks but and its really fast.

yes, but opera mini sends me to yahoo! mobile...not the "full" yahoo! site. that's the problem...yahoo! mobile doesn't have all the functions the full version has. opera mobile allows me access to the regular yahoo, but when my trial expires, i'm back to square one. i guess i'll just pony up the $20 or whatever to register with opera.

I believe its yahoo and your device itself. When a website, ie, yahoo, has a mobile version as well, it checks to see what kind of device you are using and directly sends you to the correct one. I believe by default and even on cooked roms that the PIE is set to identify itself as Pocket Internet Explorer to work in conjuction with mobile website version but you can just change that by you using either Schaps configuration or Tweak2k. Search for it on here.
That's a damn good question. I'd be interested in finding out how to "mask" as a desktop computer if possible as well.
I don't have a solution for the yahoo home page but you can bookmark the main fantasy page and it will have the full desktop version using Opera Mini.
http://sports.yahoo.com/fantasy or
fantasysports.yahoo.com both work for me.

First why don't you do a search, it would help you a lot.
IE is slow because WM Smartphones can't close running programs directly (they are only minimised), you have to go to task manager and to close a running program. Now when you start IE it will eat like 5Mb of your memory not to mention media player (10Mb). In onther words your device will freeze instantly. To avoid this you need a program called "Oxios CloseApps" a freeware wich will help a lot as it will stop all running programs and retrive lost memory. There is a cab containing that program here at the forum, but to find it you need to do a search so you can develop searching skills.
As for the other problem that you could not install a program read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432946 - apllication unlock
Cheers
its not the problem..
first,thanks for the advise.
but the slow is not from the ram memory.
its from the open webs
do you know a browser ?
due to many problems with OPERA I want do change de default setting for internet from OPERA to IE. Does any guy knows how to do this on TP2 ???
Rather than mess with registry settings, why not just remove the Internet tab and add a link to IE in the start menu?
Also, Pocket IE is such a piece of crap. I think most would agree. What problems do you have with Opera that can be solved by using IE?

Most links dont open with Opera. IE will work fine - specially links from RSS Hub open with Opera and mostly dont work. So I copy the URL to IE and it will work fine ... (bad workaround)
So this is for us Tmobile TP2 users who have PIE as the default browser.
I've had a few people test this & it has worked for most. I've also tested the updated cab from a fresh hard reset & it works for everything.
Things it does:
Sets OM as Default Browser
Makes OM the default for the Internet tab on TF3D
Changes the startup page on the Internet tab to Google
Sets search function on Internet tab to go through Google
Opens bookmarks on Internet tab in OM
Opens all links in any app with OM
Increases max tab allowed in OM to 5
Changes "Minimum overview Zoom" in OM to 90
Difference between OD & ODBookmarks
The ODBookmarks cab is the same except it takes away the globe & 4 default bookmarks on the Internet tab & just has your OM bookmarks listed.
(See screenshot)
Uninstalling
If you don't like this, just unistall like any other program. Also, to change the Internet tab back to Tmobiles default, install the TmoDefault cab. You have to do this because if you unistall the first cab it'll delete the settings for the Internet tab. Also, for some reason, no matter what, after you set OM to default, if you revert back to default settings, OM will still open all links in other appls. Don't know why, but it will not revert back to IE. Sorry.
Warning
If you've changed any settings in the OM ini, this will overwrite those settings so you'll need to redo them.
***Not for us with WM6.5 &/or Manila 2.5+ since i dont run a newer rom & i've never messed with it.***
Thanks for any help. Please leave feedback.
If you tried the original version & your links don't open in Opera, install the new one & everything should work. Thanks for helping test the original.
i installed the 1st cab and it works...launches opera by default from the net tab
It fixed the internet tab for me but links in mail still opened in IE.

Are you talking about the key on the keyboard? I don't know how to fix that. I was just thinking about that a few minutes ago.

It still opens links in internet explorer, as far as I can tell. It did change the tab in tf3d.

Ok, i have to figure out what else i changed on my phone but didn't put in the CAB that's makes the links work on mine.
Works for me; plus my email links still open in opera mobile
Cool. Glad to hear it's working.
@jim_0068 I'm thinking you're right (on tmonews) that the preference setting inside OM is needed as well, so I may include a modded ini file for that in the CAB. Its weird though because my ini file shows that particular setting as not being changed yet it all still works for me.
I just wish I could compare my registry to someone who hasn't tried this or anything else on it, just to double check all the registry settings i changed.
Anyway to get this going for the WM 6.5 Windows Default home screen? On the bottom it says favorites, but IE is showing and you could add favorites for IE. I wonder if this could be Opera and add bookmarks for Opera.
Works Great
Thanks for the cab

I don't know if it will work for 6.5 or not. If you try it, don't hold me liable if it messes anything up. If it does work though, let us know.
Also, glad to see it works. I guess now i'll edit the original post to show what all registry edits & what-not that it changes.
to the original poster: I just noticed that while this works perfectly it doesn't scale properly when you are using touchflo 3d in landscape. was curious if you could look into that? thanks for the wonderful cab though.
Thanks for the cab., it worked perfectly for me. One very minor issue however. I have both the stock version of Opera Mobile and Opera Mobile 9.7 (I believe) beta downloaded from OM's website. When launching the default browser, it open with the stock OM, but with links to emails, the beta version opens up. this isn't a problem for me honestly, I even actually prefer it since the beta version actually scales the page better, but I just thought you'd wanna note that. Awesome work on the cab. and thanks again.
Oh yeah, how do I use the favorites cab.? Is that what I use to change the favorites on the internet slide of the tflo3D?
Worked great
No problems. I still had to do the configuration in opera:config to set it as default so it would be used from email links. Other than that, it worked perfectly. Thank you for the easy tweak. Those of us who dont know what we are really doing in the registry appreciate it when someone takes a tweak like this and wraps it up for us with a nice ribbon.

do you mean when you're on the Internet tab & go to landscape mode? I just did that on mine (i have it where the globe is gone) & it just moves all my bookmarks to the right. It seems that TF3D has it so that The globe will always default to the left part of the screen in landscape. I don't know how to fix that

As for the 9.5 vs 9.7 issue, i think that has to do with if you set 9.7 as default in the settings (i think that's an option)
The favorites cab is the same as the first except for it takes out the globe & the 4 default bookmarks on the Internet tab & just lists all the Bookmarks you have set in OM

Yeah I'm going to edit the cab to include the ini for OM with the "Browser First Time Launch" set to 1
Yeah the main reason I made this is so that I don't have to redo the registry edits manually next time i hard reset. Glad i could help out others

What I meant was to make a new .cab for the WM 6.5 non Manila OS to have Opera the default. You know how it says favorites on the last slide and it's for IE? I want it for Opera instead. You know what I'm talking about right?

I haven't messed with 6.5 at all so i don't know what slide you're talking about or anything. Do you have a screen shot?
As for setting Opera as the defaultl (w/o TF3D), if someone could provide the registry tweaks (which probably are the same) for 6.5, I can compile them all in to a cab for you.
Opera just released Opera Mini 5 for Windows Mobile requiring no Java. It runs a lot faster than the Java version and doesnt have that big annoying keyboard as an option. It also automatically connects your data connection taking away any lag when starting up and selecting a bookmark. Here are 3 downloads. A CAB, and an OEM or EXT package for Chefs. OEM for Build OS, EXT for Visual Kitchen.
Opera Mini 5 for Windows Mobile CAB
Opera Mini 5 for Windows Mobile OEM
Opera Mini 5 for Windows Mobile EXT
Enjoy!
thanks cooking [email protected]
Had read bad things about the non Java version but in fact works a lot better, always had mini 5 java version crash on me to the point i'm using 4.2 signed still
Thanks will cook in and test some more

Yea I hear you on the 5 java version, it would either crash or get stuck in memory. I am pleased with the non java version for sure though. Let me know how it goes I havent cooked it in yet. Just using the CAB.
I have the OLD I mean Old Tmobile SDA and it works the only downside is that you need a qwerty key board in your phone, otherwise you can only type numbers... Kinda sad but if you really want it to use it bad just use windword and copy and paste your words... lol

Thats a shame buddy, just look for a newer device on ebay and flash it for tmobile. You should be able to score at least a touch screen pda for 100 or less.
Edit: I just checked and seems you should be able to use a number pad to type with this version. This is taken from the multitapbream.ini file included in the install.
Code:
[MultiTap_abc]
KEY0=" 0"
KEY1=./,[email protected]&~!_'"1+-()%:=
KEY2=abc2
KEY3=def3
KEY4=ghi4
KEY5=jkl5
KEY6=mno6
KEY7=pqrs7
KEY8=tuv8
KEY9=wxyz9
[MultiTap_ABC]
KEY0=" 0"
KEY1=./,[email protected]&~!_'"1+-()%:=
KEY2=ABC2
KEY3=DEF3
KEY4=GHI4
KEY5=JKL5
KEY6=MNO6
KEY7=PQRS7
KEY8=TUV8
KEY9=WXYZ9
[MultiTap_123]

KEY1=1
KEY2=2

KEY4=4
KEY5=5
KEY6=6

KEY8=8

Just re-did all the files so that it installs into the windows directory. I was unsure if that was possible but I just confirmed it. This will save space!
cooked in my manila 2012 rom, works fine so far. no annoying pop up windows asking to connect.
Is there anywya to make this my default browser instead of IE in manila?

is there a possibility to cange the font size... i mean not in the menue. the "small" letters are still to big...
how do i make sense 2.5 internet tab load this by default? it still opens 9.7 when i press the globe, a link, or search
login glitches!
nice try man! but test it thoroughly on your device because the biggest problem of opera mini 5 is that it cannot get you logged in to some of your online accounts. i been using that for a week but stii have no success. even if i switched connection to socket or http.
but still... good luck!

Hey Ryan, is it up to Opera to release a new Mini 5.1 cab that doesn't require java, or is it something you can cab up?
Excellently working, but I've a question ..
Both Opera 9.7 & Opera 10 can read Arabic words/sentences normally after installing my language package, but Opera Mini shows them in reverse & with letters unconnected. Is it possible that someone knows what how to get over this? Noting that Opera Mini could read Arabic normally on my previous Symbian phones (Nokia).
Thanks in advance.
Is it possible to have English UI when the Reginal Setting in the handset is in another Language like Opera 9.7
Opera Mini 5 + Extra options
do you want to try my opera mini? I hope you like it
