Opera and auto-zoom out - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hello there, I haven't found any info on this so I post here...
Opera 9.5 auto zoom out of any internet page when it loads it, and what bothers is it doing that even when the webpage is optimized for VGA display... Any idea to prevent that (whether it should be something to add to the HTML code of the page, or a setting in opera) ?

Going menu>settings>display>activate mobile display (or whatever is the name of the option in english) sortof fixes the problem, since the page is not zoomed out, but it disables most of the CSS and stuff.
I searched the registry to see if the default virtual resolution used by opera was in there, but found nothing.
Still seeking ^^

OK, found it :
Change virtual screen width :
Open /windows/opera9/opera.ini
Change value "[Adaptive Zoom]/Virtual Screen" from 960 to 480.
edit :
In fact, it's ok for viewing, but you still have to zoom somehow to click a link, input text or anything. Still searching

netfront tweaking

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

How to Make IE Default browser

Hi there
I need to make IE as a default browser in my HTC diamond. I have installed a medical software, that uses IE to display the data. At a moment, it runs Opera and unable to display the data correctly.
Please help. thanks
Yeah I have the same issue here. Need to get the IE as default browser. We developed a webbased tool at my work that just works with the Pocketpc IE browser. The Opera browser does not allow the files to be saved offline as we want.
Found several Registry changes online but non of them worked for me.
Maybe it works for you but if there is any other solution it would be more than welcome for me
Registry Path: HKCR\XXXX\DefaultIcon
Value: (Default)=browsres.dll,-6703
Registry Path: HKCR\XXXX\Shell\Open\Command
Value: (Default)=iexplore.exe %1
Remarks: "XXXX" can be "file" or "htmlfile".
Anyway, the first tweak is optional because it is only responsible for the file icon. The second tweak is the one that decides which application should open such file type.
Please check...
Registry Path: HKCR\YYYY
Value: (Default)=_htmlfile_Opera
Remarks: Where "YYYY" is any file extension, e.g. ".html", ".htm", etc. Change data value from "_htmlfile_Opera" to "htmlfile" in order to associate with the tweaks done earlier.

Try this:
HKLM
Software
Microsoft
Shell
Rai
DEFBROWSER
Change 0 value to Internet Explorer
Change 1 value to "\windows\iexplore.exe"
I tried this on an older device and it worked. Not tried it on the Diamond though so please let me know if it does the trick!
All above methods are failed.
I have tried through a different way.
The default file association of html / htm files is towards operaL.exe file. What I did, I changed it to \Windows\Iexplore.exe file:%1 using Advanced Configuration or Registry. This resulted in a strange behavior of Windows Mobile 6.1 which I termed as a "BUG". Although I havent touched the icon part yet, when I click on any htm / html file, it opens pocket IE instead of Opera by default. But to my surprise, IE fails to recognize that the file is html. It doesnt display anything. And, when I changed the associations back to OperaL.exe, all files are displayed as normal.
I wanted to know is this strange behavior of windows mobile Pocket IE a bug or something else? Please guide....
I have tested the same on Windows mobile 2003 (old version). Clicking on any html / htm results in opening of IE normally and perfectly.
Please comment?
IE will become the default browser if you will remove flag at "Set Opera as default browser" (find it in Opera's menu-tools-settings-Misc.) and, then, SOFT RESET. (Tested in Opera 8.6.5)
This will set IE as the default browser: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=419066

that option is not in the htc version of opera 9.5, you can only choose it to be default on a public bata version, instead of the htc one.

Opera on AT&T Fuze

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.

Strange Opera 9.5 Issue - Mobile website font size...

When using a site like m.facebook.com and some rss feed mobile sites on 3g the font size is tiny forcing a double tap zoom. Switch to wifi, the text is the normal larger size.
Tried searching, but, oof, what a generic bunch of responses for zoom opera mobile 3g wifi. Heh. I tried resetting adaptive zoom settings, deleting cache. Any advice? Just one of those silly nuisance type thigns that bug you until you get an answer...
Thanks.
This issue is back now that I ran the HTC Connection wizard. Odd.
Well, so far I have found that since running connection set up that proxy settings are not being saved if deleted in the opera:config. Trying a few other things. wifi still shows the correct font size and it appears to be proxy related. Now I just have to figure out how get the blank proxy settings to stay blank.
Thanks if anyone has help. I am using the build of Opera in RSW's thread.

Registry option - help needed

So been playing lots with registry editor. Found how to change my default home page in IE and while there...
If you go to:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Settings.
What is in there are all options available in settings tab of the phone.
With no surprise there is more entries there then what we can see. Some are empty some are half filled in.
For example
{90A593C1-F945-4bf7-AB56-A999E425F16F} - It's title Search
In side there is Location and we get
app://{5B04B775-356B-4AA0-AAF8-6491FFEA5664/SearchSettings
and
{A7DD1D7D-C7CA-4566-A5E7-015C7940276E] - Internet Explorer
In side there is Location and we get
app://{5B04B775-356B-4AA0-AAF8-6491FFEA5663/_default
Can any help and explain what is this location:
app://{5B04B775-356B-4AA0-AAF8-6491FFEA5663/_default
Bold part is the only part that differs from each setting but from name it seems like a coded path to where some setting files are located.
Is there a way of decoding where said app is and accessing it?
Any one that knows more then me could have a look in to if it is possible to enable some other settings?
Can u advise where u got the reg efitor from?
