ok, ive been using smartskey for while with no problems, then the other day i installed opera and it wont autoscroll with the volume slider. it work fine with IE? do i have to do something special? or is it not compatible?[/b]
Let me say up front I haven't used the Opera browser, but its probable the Smartskey is not compatible. No fault of Waters' but rather its possibly a non-standard way Opera scrolls pages. I use AvantGo quite frequently, and it doesn't support the scrolling feature either. Best bet is to write to the Opera developers and have them support scrolling that is consistent with Smartskey. Water mentioned previously how Smartskey does this:
"The program will send VK_NEXT, VK_PREV to the program that is the pageup/pagedown key in windows. You may ask the developer to handle these key, it is almost one line of code to support this."
Opera Mobile doesn't support Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V too and this is very painful

Using the Tilt's Internet Explorer, I can not access a particular website. The problem is that the developer of the website has a script to detect the browser and if it is not IE 6+ or above, you only get an error stating that you need to use IE and not Opera, Firefox, etc... But the Tilt is running IE, correct?
Anyway, is there a better version of IE that can be used on the Tilt? I have Opera installed and use that mainly but as I said, the site blocks Opera as well.
Help?

Send a nasty email to the developer telling him he's a f*cking idiot and it's people like him that break the internet.
Try PIEPlus by Reensoft,
It Adds Many Much Needed Improvements To PIE.
It Also Allows You To Change The User-Agent That The Browser Reports To The Server. (Essentialy Identifying Itself As IE6 For Example)

I second that on PIEPlus. It is a must have if you plan on using PIE.
PIE Plus is pretty cool! I like it.
Unfortunately, it dosent seem to fix the problem. I changed the User Agent to:
Mozilla/4.0
compatible
MSIE 7.0
Windows NT 6.0
PPC; 240x320
Did I miss something or do I need to keep on digging for a solutions?
The Picsel browser also allows you to define the User Agent string to IE6 etc.
It is a nice browser, but not as nice as OperaMini IMHO, but it will also view *.pdf *.doc files and text and images. There are cabs for it floating around here somewhere.
Thanks everyone. I found a browser.
Picsel (wizzzard!!!) works great! WOW, super fast also with easy to use navigation.
Thanks everyone!
this may sounds dumb, what does the P stand for in PIE? PDA?

Sorry To Hear That PIEPlus Does Not Solve Your Issue.
Might Have To Take A Lookie At Picsel.
Try Jataayu browser, Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335625
OK, tried Jataayu as well. Pretty nice. Tried it for about 2 minutes and every page that has a login screen, after entering my user/pass it wont let me click the "Login" button. Tried it on 3 different web pages and the same result each time.
Still looking for an alternative though.
I am almost done with the Tilt. I am giving it 1 more week and then it is going back to ATT.
how can you prevent netfront from going to mobile versions of certain sites like myspace,yahoo,google, etc? I can't find any settings for changing the string of redirection.kaisertweak doesnt seem to be the answer either.
Try entering another User-Agent string in the Browser Settings.
Good luck!
Mr B
There is a setting under BROWSER or VIEW for NORMAL. I also use Netfront and I get normal viewing.
i fixed that but what really annoys me is that if i try opening a link to someone's email outlook fails to pop up which opera(not mini) and pie does just fine
Hi All,
I was told by an AT&T guy that you could change the opera config file to make opera on the Fuze act a fully functional browser. The problem I am having is the opera will take to me to the mobile version of websites and I don't want that. I have tried changing the user agent to 2 and 3, but that didn't correct the problem. Does anyone know what has to be changed to make this work?
thanks
billf.
A couple of other things to do in the opera:config page. First, you want to change the "Custom User-Agent" in "user prefs" to "Mozilla/4.0(compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 6.0;en)" (although I've also heard that just deleting that string works, too, but I haven't tried it).
The other thing is to delete the HTTP and HTTPS server names in the "Proxy" section.
These changes will get you to the normal version of most sites (although there are some sites that still redirect to wap/mobile versions -- I don't use any of these on a regular basis, but nba.com is one such).
You can upgrade to build 2745
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442252&highlight=opera+2745&page=15
I followed all of the tips and some of the sites still wouldn't go, no matter what changes I made. I followed owziee's directions in the link above exactly and upgraded to the 2745 build that herg posted in that same thread. Works perfectly and I can now go to desktop sites. You do have to make the additional changes, can't just run the cab or it doesn't fit vga and zoom properly, but with my low to intermediate skills it wasn't a problem to do.
I can't stand this Opera Mobile. Web pages are constantly changing size on my, and I can't zoom in or out. Is there any way to change the default browser to IE? IE works much better for me.
i didnt like opera at first but its actually way better then PIE. go to the opera settings and there is a button that says "mobile view" uncheck it and all websites are not in mobile view.
also. im sure u know. but for zooming u can run your finger in a circle clockwise or counterclockwise on the button to make it zoom in or out...or u can double tap the touch screen for it to zoom in.
all you gotta do is add to the end of your web address is "index.html". ex. espn.com/index.html
Works perfectly
You have to disable your proxy for your data connection or it will go to the mobile version as well. That is in connection settings. Uncheck the box that says this connection uses a proxy. I was getting all mobile sites until I did that.
waste of time
screw all that programming - just install skyfire and set it as your default browser through itself and if that doesnt work, install total commander and change the internet file - google it and you'll find simple instructions
Hi,
Here's the link to the Opera Mobile thread; have a look at the last 25 or so posts in the thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486502
In a nutshell, stock ROM's receive many post-configuration changes via .PROVXML; this means that the experience of applications are changed by the carrier to suit their requirements.
There are a few adjustments that are required in order to achive the experience you're after ... the link will help you achieve your desired configuration and saves me repeating all the same info here.

I wish that opera would just go away. It is a clunky and impossible to use web browser that serves no purpose other than to divide the competition against MS.
And now wow, they threw in a web server.... in violation of the terms of service of 99% of ISPs. *GOOD MOVE!!!* (thats sarcasm in case you missed it)

What the hell is wrong with you? Internet Explorer, especially for WM, SUCKS! Opera Mobile and Mini are super fast, and very usable, even on my old HTC Touch.
While I prefer Safari to Opera on my desktop (I do like Opera more on Windows though), Opera for Windows Mobile is the best browser I've used on Windows Mobile.
yeh, opera mini is pretty good stuff to use with WM!
Hey Bro.
Opera starts since 1997 .
Tell Mozilla to beat that .
Opera created tabs, session managers and mouse gestures which IE and Netscape didnt have during that time.
Have you guys tried the opera:config hack? (on desktop)
Type that in the address bar.
Go to performace and change everything to 9999 except for HTTP error strategy.
Sometimes the hack might revert back to 1 , so if you find your opera slowing down, go back and do the hack again.
For those of you who haven't fallen of your chair reading the title ....
What I'm trying to do is use LogMeIn on an Android phone, have tried the native browser, Opera and Steel, all let me log into the the remote PC but on connection a blank screen is displayed. I have read that you can switch to html to view but I havent got this to work. Having used LMI with html from a PC, I found it very slow, so I would prefer to avoid this route. What does PIE have that Android browsers are missing? Is it ActiveX or Java?
I ask just so that I keep an eye out for a suitable android browser when released. Apparently LMI are working on an app for the iphone and possibly Android but an interim solution would be great.
Cheers
I was wondering the same thing. I use remotely anywhere and it has a nice activeX control which is way faster than Java or html.
