No Tesco (UK) are not selling cheap Kaiser's before you ask
I've a bit of a request. I'm pretty much ready to buy the Kaiser, however, there is one deal breaker for me.
Part 1...
I want to know if the Tesco shopping website for groceries will work on the WM6 IE browser. Seem like an odd request? Well I do my grocery shopping online and if I can't add items to my basket while using IE for WM6 then this is a big deal for me!
Sad I know but true.
So can some kind person test WM6 IE with Tesco Groceries ( http://www.tesco.com/superstore/bob.asp? ) and let me know if the site loads after you have signed in? I can log into the site on WM5 on my Wizard but it will not load past the sign in screen so I can't use the site.
I know it works on Opera Mini 4 so please don't suggest that.
I want to know if it works on IE for WM6 as this leads onto part 2.
Part 2...
Is there a lists / video / post somewhere of the Touch Flo enchancements HTC has implmented that affect WM6 IE on the kaiser? I've seen videos of people draging on the screen to zoom in/out. I know you can pan etc. Is this all?
Thanks!
I tried from the US and received a message "Sorry, your browser is not suitable". I tried this with internet explorer. Opera mini version 4 on the other hand seems to work because it gave me the page to sign in or register as a new customer.
i have a very similar issue, www.yahoo.com.hk will only display in a simplified version on the english version tytn 2, whiles the chinese version tytn 2 display the full version.
any fix for this.

Hmm interesting thanks
Contact the web developer
Perhaps you could contact the web developer for the site you're having issues with. It could end up being a simple fix to enable WM6 IE to work.
Right checked this for you.
When you goto the URL you gave, it says the browser is not supported but gives the option to goto the access site.
Click goto access site, loads fine, and lets me login and then takes me to a slim site. This let me browse the departments and add them.
I have attached a zip with about 18 screens in it for you, along with a couple of screens
All done on Vario III flashed with Duttys normal rom final (v4) nothing else added into it

hi all,
i'm really frustrated with my htc s730, has anyone tried to open forum.xda-developers.com on their device?
fast openning of the page but as soon as i start scrooling it takes me two minutes to get to the bottom of the page.
maybe that's beacuse the missing drivers.
But i think it's not acceptable to sell a device with so low performances. I feel cheated, s710 my previous phone performs alot better.
i get the ideia that the device slows down when openning pictures...
???
use Opera...
i usualy don't like to use something just because the original software doesn't work but i guess it will be the case.
anyone has a beta of opera 9.5?

Wasn't released yet.
I use Opera v8x, i guess,this is the best PIE replacement (yet).
There are some others out there,too.
Just read Menneisyys Windows Mobile Web Browsing Bible ..
i'm downloading the 9.3 beta to try it...
Yes this forum take aaaaaages to view on the S730.
Strange as it is that this site is about mobiles but has no mobile friendly version?!
open www.xda-developers.com and you will see a pda version link on the left of the page.
The problem is that the post are not arranged by last post, what makes that version loose all of it's funcionality... :S
Not sure as I have never tried coming here from my phone yet, but I know with some other sites IE has some default display options that will either keep the origional website layout and look, or modefy it for "easier" use. I have been to a few sites that were useless and took ages to navigate unless I changed how IE displays the page. Might be worth a try. (not that opera isnt good, use it on the PC and the phone )

What I Did.
1. Installed the cab
2. I got a sucessful pin and ip address

5. Hit connect and went through the encryption key generation.

Hi, I'll download immediately if it'so, i'm into Blackberry devices and i love them and the Blackberry services.
Do You think that I can install that .cab on the Diamond and still use the same account I have for the Blackberry devices?
In a few words, after installing and got the PIN(in the hope!),can i use it like a new Blackberry device in my Provider BIS site only getting from one to another device?
Thank You in advance.
P.S.: The Touch Diamond with Blackberry push mail service may be a great wedding plan
Honestly I have no idea. I just was lucky to find the newest build of the BBConnect and try it on my diamond. So not much help sorry

Hi All,
Has anyone else noticed that the Kaiser / IE seems to redirect you to a "pda friendly" version of a website.. I found this alot with News Sites and its nothing like the site you get from a standard PC/Desktop. I dont know how it knows I'm searching from my Kaiser and dont like the "pda friendly" pages, is there anyway to override this "feature" - After all I like to think I am getting to the actual website I want and not what "they" want...
It isn't the Kaiser that takes you to the PDA site. When you access the webserver that hosts the site it checks what browser you are requesting the page from.

You can avoid this and see the 'real' web by downloading and installing Opera. There is a setting in opera 9.5b's options to see the full web page rather than the mobile version.
Thanks there - I guess I should have known it was the Sites server etc and not the Kaiser.... So IE can't do it then, not had any experience with Opera so will give it a go (assuming I can find it) also I hear there is a Firefox version around called Minimo but again not used it before and dont know if it can do what Opera can....
Many thanks, will let you know how I get on.
Minimo was abandoned somewhere in 2006 at v0.2, was pretty unusable compared to today's browsers like Opera.
Hi,
Thanks for all the advice, yes I can see the pro's of Opera. Very sleek and lets me see the "proper" web page as opposed to the "pda friendly". Shame about Minimo tho as I like Firefox.... Here's to happy web surfing.

PIE isn't that great... but in these cases the owners of those particular sites have set it up to give a special version of their sites.
Its possible to get to the real version by messing with the user agent... but Opera does it soooooooo much better there isn't really any point. Opera mini 4 is free and works on any java enabled mobile phone (including the kaiser)
Opera Mobile 9.5 is available as a free beta version for windows mobile devices. Eventually they will release a commercial version which they will charge for and this is the one you really want on your kaiser (and should be worth the money!)
my opera, when it opens certain sites, also gmail site, when you scroll up down or zoom in and out too much, some parts of the screen got stuck.
example , i move around in my inbox front screen, then when i try to search some mails, the screen wont go to the top, like it got cut.
anyone with the same problem? wanna know if there's any solution.
Got exactly the same problem >.<
I cant even open my gmail page with Opera.
I browse the web an awful lot and have yet to experience this. what version of opera are you using?
dunno which one, it comes with the official rom update wwe hk edition.

Its 9.5
.. and I am still not able to change its default browser status. Opera site informs that Activex and flashplayer is disabled in this version which may be the reason for some problems.
Hi,
Skyfire is a free, downloadable mobile web browser that allows you to experience the internet on your phone exactly like on your PC. Now, you can use the full web from your mobile phone with unprecedented speed and simplicity – without the typical restrictions and limitations that current ‘mobile web’ efforts offer. It’s “The Web”, not some mobile web. (Taken from their site)
The best feature in this? "Unlike other mobile browsers, Skyfire supports the desktop version of Adobe Flash applications so sites, including those that serve-up video and music, are rendered exactly as you would expect - just like your PC."
Now... Will Opera support flash or not, we can always install this on Xperia - or any windows mobile - to get flash support for sites...
NOTE: I just read in the main forum the following: "Please note that this board does not tolerate cracks, serials, pirated versions or the posting of software that should have been aquired by legal means and we will remove (delete) them when found. Please help us keep this site clean by posting links of that sort in this tread as well as telling us if you have found anything on the ftp site."
So in light of that, i have removed the link to download Skyfire via RapidShare from here. Anyways, i'm sure if you register on the site, you'll get your hands on it - since even i got it and i am in Pakistan!
Best regards.
This is all well and good, but currently, skyfire doesn't support VGA or WVGA devices!!! Is there a fix/workaround to this?

It doesn't? Well it's a Beta, so hopefully will soon.
Wow thanks for telling me about this. I installed it and it looks very promising. Not to mention the pages load really fast.

Because they optimise the most common pages on their server
It's a really nice app

Awesome!!!!
Well after using it for a few days I switched to Opera Mobile bet 9.6. I actually like it quite a bit better then skyfire. Yes skyfire load pages faster then anything I've seen but zooming on those pages takes time and trying to scroll is bad. Opera's new program takes full time to load the page but once it's loaded the scrolling and moving is very good.
In case you can't download this, then i just updated the first post with a rapidshare link to download this.
Skyfire has shut down nonUS winmo 1.5 server access as of July1, 2010. Android v2 still works in Australia. Have found an alternative but costs ~$30 after a 7 day trial, Mach5 Web @ www.netacceler.com. This is a Hongkong based server and may encounter some geolocking by some sites (such as ABC.net.au iview). This is the only video enabled browser for winmo that I'm aware of. It doesn't 'remember' usename and passwords as Opera does.
in the past , i used to LIKE skyfire. Why? because it supports flash and other stuffs. it plays videos on other sites not just youtube. What I don't like about it TODAY is that it does not allow other countries, like the Philippines to use it. now I'm stucked at old opera. so sad.
And it still suffers from the very issues that have been there since it's introduction (checkboard issue, slowness of scrolling and zooming...). Sadly one more app among many others for which development has been stopped due to the imminent lauch of Windows Phone 7. I think now we definitely have to face the fact that our platform (Windows Mobile) is dying.
