Hi there
I have noticed a strange problem with Pocket IE in windows 6.1. I am using HTC Diamond Swift ROM. I wanted to change the default association of .html or .htm files from Opera to IE. So, I changed the association as:
.htm to "\windows\iexplore.exe"
Parameter as %1.
Now, when I tap on any html file, IE opens but hangs without showing any html file, rather sometimes multiple IE windows open without showing any html file.
I wanted to know why this is happening with Pocket IE in Windows 6.1. I have checked similar association in previous versions of windows mobile and found them absoluletly error free.
Please comment!
Thanks

Opera Mobile 8.6 is my default browser, but when I click on a URL in an email the link is opening in Pocket Internet Explorer.
I did fix this once before, many months ago, but the change seems to have reverted itself.
I think it was a registry change. Can anyone remind me how to do it?
Thanks.
use gsfinder,set html and htm file associations to open with opera or try letting opera be default browser however if you stream video it wont work since opera might be set to default browser
Strange. I made the change using Advanced Config and it didn't work for me. The HTM and HTML file extension weren't set to IE previously and email links were opening up with IE. Now, I've set the associations to Opera and the links are opening up with IE.
Does anybody know where the associations for opening up a browser out of an email is actually set or possibly what I'm doing wrong?
Aready solved

anybody know?
No idea mate, I use opera on desktop too, so I'd love to know this. The mobile favourites option on WMDC and Activesync only adds a folder to Internet Explorer not Opera

It would be stupid if I need to write a small software to convert the bookmark of OPERA to PIE's Favorites just to get it sync with the desktop

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
lol
I was about to suggest wroting your own software.
I prefer not syncing favourites anyway, because if I did my phone would have far too many...
Opera6.adr file containing bookmarks is compatible with the PC version - same structure.
So you can just simply copy this file from your PC-Opera to WM-Opera and vice versa.
dont you just copy the opera6.adr file from your pc to \windows\opera9?
I searched earlier, and found opera link. Kinda a server-side sync app, where with the new beta, on desktop, 9.5, you can sync, its called opera link. Do'nt know how it sync's to mobile though
Rory
Although, opera mobile 9.5 can sync with OPERA desktop 9.5, but I don't use OPERA desktop. So I don't benefit from it.
Yes, we can manually copy the bookmark file from the phone to the PC but that lost the meaning of syncing, right? We need something more automatically.
I havent tried this with Opera Mobile, but it worked with Opera Mini. I used Opera Link (as mentioned above) to sync bookmarks. Yes, if you use Opera Desktop, then it would help sync. But you don't need to use Opera Desktop to use Opera Link. You can sign into my.opera.com, and set up your book marks there, then use Opera Link to download them to your phone. Much easier than typing them on the phone directly...
I am using EasySync, it solved my need of auto backup the bookmark to the desktop.
For a while I wondered where my internet favourites were, I resynchronised and only then it dawned on me that it is Opera on the Diamond and not IE.
Does anyone know how I can synchronise my PC favourites (or my Google Toolbar favourites) with the Diamond?
It's not easy let me tell you.
Install Opera on your PC. Import your IE favorites into Opera, delete/add those you only want on the diamond (I only save my mobile favorites folder). Export Opera favorites file (opera6.adr) and copy to your device in windows\Opera9 and overwrite the original opera file.
hi,
I want to copy my IE favorites on the opera 9.5 favorites on my diamond because it doesn't synchronize automatically the favorites on opera ????
Thanks for your answers.
Regards.
opera mobile use the same bookmarks format as opera browser on pc
so if you use it there you can use the free ms program called synctoy to
sync opera with opera mobile
otherwise i guess it's required that iexplore or pie can export to opera's xml format
or that opera mobile can import from pie or ie's format
the favorites are stored in the file opera6.adr (in the windows\opera9 map). you can replace that file with your own.
When I synchronize my diamond FR, the favorites IE is synchronise but not with opera ?
Can I find a solution for that : is it normal ?
Unfortunately it's normal. The only way I've found to do it with opera mini is download opera on pc and sync across - can't get it to work on mobile 9.5.
So I opened that file mentioned above in text editor and pasted them all in there in the obvious format.
Doing this you can also dictate the position you want them to be in on the browser front screen in TF3D but not in the browser bookmarks folder as they always show in alphabetical order in there.
Hi,
I updated my Windows Live user name last week, and now i cant update the user name on my Kaiser?
Where and how can i change that?
Thanks
If you are using the WLM cab found on various threads here at xda, go to Windows Live on your Kaiser (should be in programs) menu>Account options>2) Switch Windows Live ID
