[Q] Browser Search engine change? - Windows Phone 7 General

T-Mobile changed the browser search in IE to their own homepage with a search bar in Google that's in German. I looked through settings, but I can't find the option to change it. Is there anything I'm missing?

Default Browser

Hi Guys,
Can anyone help me with this problem?
My main browser is Opera however when I click on a link from an app (for example from Pockettwitter or my RSS reader) the web page opens up in Internet Explorer.
I hate having to use IE as the pages never fit etc....How can I change it so that when i click on these links they open in Opera?
Thanks.
anyone help with this?
I thought it would be an easy one!
If anyone else is bothered by the same problem as me this is what you need to do.
Download JZ SmartMort v1.5 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=382043
It does lots of hardcore techy stuff but more importantly for me is that it has an default browser option in it's settings (go to JZ Settings from your programs list, then JZ Browser options, then Choose a Default Browser, select Opera).
See? I told you it would be easy didn't I?
This has been annoying me for ages... thanks for providing a solution - I'm about to give it a go.

How to change links in "Internet"

I did a few searches but nothing specific came up on how to change the "Internet Bookmarks" on the TF3D. I have a T-mo stock ROM. The only links in there are You Tube, CNN, FB and ESPN so does anyone know the reg hack to add or remove them? Thanks...Tj

Disguise as non-mobile browser in Froyo

I've recently rooted my Desire and am running DeFrost but I've noticed something different with the web browser. For some reason, I can no longer hide the fact that the browser is a mobile browser which changes the appearance of some websites. I don't like this.
Is there any way around this? I was wondering if my browser before was a HTC one so maybe switching to a ROM like Modaco or OpenDesire's official port would help. Thing is, I'm not particularly fond of Sense.
Also, I read something about there being a way to replace the hosts file so it blocks out the ads. Is this still possible in Froyo?
If you get Dolphin HQ browser from market, you can download a desktop toggles add-on, which switches between android and desktop ID
Will that work for all browsers or just Dolphin?
Or just type in about:debug in the address bar and "go". Then go to Menu > Settings > UAString
This only half works.
Some sites are now intelligent enough that even though you change your user agent to a desktop one that they can work out you are a mobile and redisplay a mobile specific page
about:debug doesn't seem to work in the default Froyo browser.
It's ok. I've found the answer here: http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/...ion/6167-change-user-agent-android-phone.html
When you do about:debug nothing APPEARS to happen, but if you then go into the settings there are more options available.

Change Google search bar to different engine

Hi
I am looking for a method to change the google search bar that is shown on the home screen to lets say DuckDuckGo.
My problem so far is, the DuckDuckGo app widget is a new bar, that is not fixed to the bottom, so it does not move with the swipe and it opens the special DDG browser.
I'd like to have a bar that is exactly like the Google bar, that is fixed to the bottom and opens my standard browser f.e. Firefox.
I couldn't find anything of the sorts. Even custom ROMs I looked up had either the DDG app or the standard Google bar.
Is there a solution out there, that would work the way I described?
Thank's for your help.

Question Google Search Widget - Different Search Engine

Is there a way to use a different search engine with the forced Pixel launcher search widget?
I know what you mean you select duck go for instance as deafult browser you then use the widget which is google you then search but it uses google instead have you tried removing the widget and see if it shows you a duck go one I use nova and use Google so I not had that problem sorry not much help
I wish we had a way to get rid of it all together. There is a mod here called pixel tweaks but its such a madding and convoluted process to install using substratum :/
But you can also change it if you switch to Nova launcher.
