Hey guys,
I'd like to ask if someone of you could write a quick and dirty browser app with an user agent string of the iPhone 4. there is no need of tabs or something. No other features needed.
Thanks.

Hi there,
is it true that it's simple a fake that the IE mobile on WP7 can save passwords/logins?
I can't achieve this with the browser, no way. When i google this feature i also found nothing. No people missing nor people confirm such a feature.
The reason why i think the IE mobile should do so i is explained in the link under enabling/disabling cookies : [sry but i'm not allowed to post links, would be nice if you google "Change privacy and other browser settings" and hit the first link]
Anybody who can explain me that?
thx

I'd guess it's talking more about websites like forums that 'save passwords' with a checkbox like 'remember me' or 'keep me logged in'. I don't think it's going to prompt to save your passwords like Firefox does.
Well this seems sad but true. In this case the description is misleading at all. Anyway this should be a main feature of a mobile browser nowadays. And Opera Mobile/Mini which achieve this by now are WIP
I expect this soon as well.
Hopefully it will come in the January update package.
Moving to general.

I have a couple of forums added to my Favourites on my Omnia 7 . I am automatically logged in when I go to those particular sites .
Has anyone figured out how to set the default's browser user agent as desktop? I know we can use request desktop site, but then it does not always work if you already some mobile sites. I did about:debug and was able to change the user agent to desktop, but it was only a temporary fix. Anyone know how we could change Desktop to default?
The setting in about:debug sticks for me but the browser still tends to pull mobile sites for some reason.
I don't know sorry. But I do know that you can do it with Dolphin HD browser if you don't mind using a different browser (I don't really like Dolphin to be honest..)
This is a really annoying feature. I totally loved the freedom that came with default user agent as desktop now i am stuck with forced mobile versions of websites
Something that i used to laugh at iphone users for. Whats going on with google
Type about:debug in the browser URL. Then recheck settings

the about:debug is not the solution! Stop recommending it. It has to be redone every reboot or everytime browser not used in a while.
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.
Hello all,
I wanted to write this little guide for those of you who haven't figured out how to keep the desktop view when tethering on your laptop or desktop computer using T-m.... I try not to have many keywords referring to our providers so this keeps a secret among us, if you are reading this you know what network Im talking about. I've been using this method for a while now with no problems at all.
I AM NOT IN ANY WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS FROM THE RESULTS OF THIS MODIFICATION.
This works with google chrome. I haven't tried, but Im sure it should work with firefox as well.
Open Chrome:
-Go to this link Chrome Agent Switcher.
-After installing the add-on you should see a little mask to the right of the address bar on your chrome browser.
-Click on the mask and click Settings.
-Create a new custom user agent, name it anything you want, but as the user agent string put this "Mozilla/5.0", group name could be anything you want as well.
-Click Add
-Restart Chrome (this is probably unnecessary but it just feels right lol)
-Click the mask again and choose the new user agent you just created.
-Restart Chrome again (this is probably unnecessary but... you know lol)
-You should now be able to browse the web again with desktop view.
**Sometimes the first time you open Chrome you'll receive the "T-m..." page. Dont mind this just navigate to the page you want and all should be good from there.

Works unless you want to watch YouTube or until T-Mobile bans you . Check out my post to stop tmobiles bad policy and from trying to charge you to use your own data you already paid for .

I think you need to use WebView which has many features like web browser.
Check android docs about it on this link & this link
You can also check this discussion on stackoverflow, I think it will be useful for you.
ok but webview is only for viewing the web and cannot access telephony to send the sms.
Actually what i wanted was to read data from a server and populate an android app and create a listview, then use the list of items and make them clickable for the sms event which i think could only be done by native android programe or i could use phonegap and jquery mobile. but ty anywayz
My next question would be about improving the media players for android.
