Hey all, just a small problem I've encountered with all sense 3.5 ROM ranging from Seb15's to Cool3D sense 3.5.
Does anyone know how disable mobile view in the browser?
I've tried unticking the box in the settings but it still does not disable the mobile view as all the websites I go on, it automatically puts me into mobile view!
Does anyone know how to actually disable it?
Cheers
Dave
this may be silly but have you tried restarting after you unticked mobile view
Hi Dave,
That setting works for me on sebastiaan Runnymede fine. Just tried it on www diy com for example.
Yep, I've restarted when unticked. It won't move to desktop view. Such websites I have tried is Google, BBC, engadget, guardian and YouTube. I've tried "about:debug" to get the UA String option. When I change that to desktop I still can't get desktop mode to work!

Hi Dave,
This won't help you fix your problem I expect , but just sharing how it works for me.
Google. I have to click the Mobile or Classic link at the bottom of the page to get it to switch. It ignores the setting in the browser.
Endgadget and Guardian always gives me the mobile version, regardless of setting.
youtube and BBC gives me mobile or desktop depending on what I've ticked. I don't have to even restart my browser to switch I just change the setting and then type www youtube com in the address bar and it loads the "right" version.
Maybe it's to do with how the web site detects the browser, rather than a problem with Sense per se?

All pre-sense 3.5 totally disabled the mobile setting. Sense 2.1 and 3.0 browsers when unticked let me access the web in desktop mode. I had to do no faffing around. I think I'll have to let the devs know because even when the UA string is changed to desktop it still presents me with mobile view.
I've done a bit of playing with my daily driver ROM, while looking at the User Agent String on www mybrowserinfo com.
On Seb15 Runny AIO ROM (Android 2.3.5, Sense 3.5) in mobile view :-
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.3.5; en-gb; HTC_Desire_A8181 Build/GRJ90) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/533.1
but in Desktop view it shows :-
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_3; HTC Desire; en-gb) AppleWebKit/533.16 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/533.16
Don't need to restart the phone or the browser
On ICS in mobile view
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.0.1; en-gb; Full Android on Bravo Build/GRI40) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.30
in desktop view
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/534.24 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/11.0.696.34 Safari/534.24
On Stock Froyo (Android 2.2 with Sense) in mobile view
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.2; en-gb; HTC Desire Build/FRF91) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/533.1
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_7; en-us) AppleWebKit/530.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Safari/530.17
So the setting is definitely having a difference to how the phone presents itself to the web-site (which is also proved by how www diy com reacts to the setting for me). Maybe some web-sites are looking at different bits of info in the UA string to others, to determine which page to display?
Been looking into it, tried loads of UA strings in the browser settings when I typed in about:debug in the address bar.
Changed my UA string so many times, yet it still comes up the same as stock UA :/ This looks like a ROM problem!

You will have to change your default user agent, for opera you can do it straight from the browser.
For internet explorer i think you can do it in advanced configuration tool. there have been alot of threads covering how to do this, just use search, also to help you here is the default iphone user agent.
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Mobile/1A543 Safari/419.3

Hi, does anyone know how to change WP7's IE user agent?
I've tried modifying registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent] with no luck at all, www.whatsmyuseragent.com still showing original Mobile IE7 user agent string.
Thanks a bunch.
hey guys, i've just tested the web browser with iPhone 4.1 Mobile Safari user agent string "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8B117 Safari/6531.22.7"
The result is unacceptable in most occasions, so... guess we'll just have to wait for IE9 to come out
Please tell us how you changed this! I've been looking for a way to do it for some time.

It involves lots of needy greedy programming stuff. I basically create a browser with the built-in WebBrowser control and set the user-agent to iPhone 4.1 mobile safari user-agent.
I've attached the source code. But anyway MobileIE7 just isn't powerful enough to render those elements, e.g. it can't properly render Google to the formatting like iPhone safari.

user agent switcher
Folks, just to bring closure to this thread and for the benefit of future Bing/Google searches, here is the marketplace-approved user agent switcher:
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/user-agent-switcher/65783cf3-4a4f-4a89-a315-7998fe1ced6e
On your WP7 phone, just type in "user agent switcher" into marketplace search. Using the Apple Ipad user-agent string seems to work really well with a lot of sites on WP7.8.
^^ Great app user agent switcher, and I am starting to use it, it is just what I am looking for.
But, it would be nice to integrate it in IE or better UC browser, that will be so great...
And offcourse text reflow in those web browsers!
Hi,
what do you think, is there any solution to change the browser's user agent string to gain acces to (for exmaple) iPhone optimized webpages? Or is it hard-coded into the browser?
I saw several times UA String somewhere... maybe in *.ini files.
Best Regards

Hi today I found a file which has one line:
"nUser-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 3_1_2 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/528.18 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile / 7D11 Safari/528.16 \ r \ n "
Maybe we can change this user agent. File is located in: "\ SystemFS \ User \ Br \ RmConfig \ iphone.ini" (strange name)
Also in this file there is still a pretty interesting line: "ACCEPT_EXT_DOWNLOAD =" I think it defines extensions for download.
Sorry for my English
Yes the iphone.ini comes from the WebKit, it is no longer a secret that samsung uses some Apple relevated things for bada.
But this ini is part of the ported WebKit, for they that don't knows what WebKit is:
It is a HTML-Rendering-Engine, Browsers like Dolfin, Dolphin, Safari are all based on it.
By the way the Bada WebKit from 1.2 is terrible. But iphone sites working just I know, you only need to find the correct link of the page, some sites have different features for iphone and android wich goes through javascript, this sites checks if their web client connects to the site, if not they block scrolling and things like that. This is a blocking feature for other clients and browsers. The creators don't wont that the content can be used without their app.
The best sample of one of this sites is imo.im this is one of this sites where only a certified app can scroll on it, and so on.
While developing Voluntas i have seen some such sites, maybe it could be possible to add such checks in the application so that everyone can use such sites.
Manipulating the Ugent string would be a good way for that, but for me it doesn't worked on even this site written below.

Yeah, even I thought that was extensions for download. I added all the MIME/ Internet media type extensions for different formats. I flashed the the FFS file which had the modified iphone.ini file. But it didn't work.
Hi,
did anyone have success already in editing the useragent-string? Currently I'm living in Japan and I am not able to use my Wave-S8500 with my messaging-flat.
The reason is, that the provider Softbank checks the User-Agent String when sending MMS and if the phone was sold by them, the connection is blocked . I found several tutorials to fit the string with android and valid ones for softbank, but I found no way to do that with bada...
I really would like to use my Wave again instead of the crappy phone I got from softbank...
Best regards,
Chris
Ok, yesterday I stumbled on the answer in another forum (Thanks to mylove90 from sammobile-forum).
You can change the User Agent String as following:
-First enter *#33284*# and change the Debug-Level to Middle
-After reboot, enter *#7092463*#, then go to Module Settings>Browser>UAgent and just change the string (it would be a good idea to note the orginial one first )
-If wanted, enter *#33284*# and change the Debug-Level to Low again
My Wave is working now with SoftBank, after changing the User Agent String to one from a SoftBank Phone
Chris
this metot is fully invented by me so i got all credits
from the dialer write: *#7092463*#
go to "module setting"
go to "browser"
change the user agent using the first option
to be like opera9 you have to type: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; U; en; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061208 Firefox/2.0.0 Opera 9.50
to be like chrome you have to type: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0) AppleWebKit/535.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/13.0.782.112 Safari/535.1
to return as bada 2.0: Mozilla/5.0 (SAMSUNG; SAMSUNG-GT-S8530/S8530XPKH2; U; Bada/1.2; it-it) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Dolfin/2.2 Mobile WVGA SMM-MMS/1.2.0 OPN-B
man, where did you get this info?
and what about all the other options??

i was moving around in the internal menù and i saw the option for the UA; anyway it works very well i'm testing it and everything works smooth; i don't know nothing about the other 2 option
The useragent seems to be the browser right? I changed the settings like you said but nothing happens the browser is still the dolphin...
I tried it with chrome...
Tried Chrome UA and yes it is working
Notice that i suggested that originally here
Now when i write www.youtube.com it opens PC website not the mobile one
Maybe we should try iphone/ipad/Android User Agents to see better things
Best Regards
so this change means that you are able to use the fully pc browser functions? OR what effect should i see?
im on xpkh1 on s8500. above code does not work for me. nothing happens when i type the code.

Cheers Adfree - to cut to the quick - here's the magic debug code :
*#33284*#
then choose the debug level.
The phone will then reboot
note that in PKH2 it appears that all the debug codes work even when debug is set to low

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has had a similar problem to me.
Basically I have an orange galaxy nexus on a panther tariff and cannot get the swapables to work.
I have tried using dolphin browser to change the user agent, but this has not worked. (this was based on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1366340)
I had unlocked the boot loader and rooted the handset. however since I was worried this might be causing the problem, i loaded loaded up the ics 4.0.2 from the google website, which unrooted the phone, I then locked the bootloader. however Im still getting the same problem, when I go to the orange swapables site it tells me there was a technical blip, and to call tech support quoting code 102.
I noticed most people were originally only seeing the astrology swapable, but I haven't even been seeing this one.
does any one have any idea what I may be doing wrong?
I was thinking maybe orange could detect that my rom is possibly not the one orange would load onto it, as its the one from the google website.
I am on Orange now and have the option for swapables with my panther tariff.
After visiting Orange world (via wifi) and entering my number I get a text with a link from Orange.
When you visit this link you get a page where you can select add swappable. The only option as per the post you link to is bloody Russell Grant Astrology.
Guess this is something we all need to complain to Orange about so they can fix it. Mobile TV is the one I think I would try more than anything. They aren't really any good options but as a freebie from them you can't grumble. (well I am lol)
Using the other method i just get a opps... message
*actually it worked after noticing i added an extra space. Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.3.3; en-gb; GT-I9100 Build/GINGERBREAD) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/533.1
@Laird_Attwood
your seems to be working as normal, have a look at this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1366340
It should work for you!
I just doesn't for me
I am also running bootloader unlocked and rooted
After getting the full list when you select one you get the oops.. technical error again - works after lots of back and forth. Now works on default browser once selected via Dolphin HD
Only thing I could suggest it to go back to stock 4.0.1 and do the OTA for 4.0.2 and try again.
I got it working using dolphin and the custom agent
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.3.3; en-gb; GT-I9100 Build/GINGERBREAD) AppleWebKit/533.1 (KHTML, Like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/533.1
Once you have set the agent navigate through from the orange homepage to the swapables selection. I now have deezer and mobile TV ......
Don't know if that's exactly the same string you tried?
Sadly I've just loaded the original 4.0.1 from and ota updated to 4.0.2 used the exact same user agent and still get the 102 error. I'll try the sim card in one of the supported phones tomorrow and get back with how I get on

Edit - my post wasn't really relevant actually, sorry
OK,
Ive now found out its a problem on oranges side, Ive tried using different phones and still get the same problem, I had a go on a mates GN he also has a panther tariff and I was able to set up his swapables quite easily (following the user agent and dolphin browser method). However I get a strange error with mine, so still trying to get orange to sort it out.
Yep, Oranges fault!
All fixed now, and all it took was several hours waiting on the phone to orange!
