If I want to remove Operat and use IE as the browser that launches when selecting "Launch Browser" how would I do this?
Thanks
I think tf3d config can make ie your default explorer and removing opera completely is different depending on what ROM you are using.
Here is a cab the will reset the default browser. It does not remove opera, it just repoints defaults. Credit goes elsewhere but I am posting from my Fuze and don't remember where I found it.
Hope this helps.

Yeah, still waiting on that answer myself. Basically when I go to the "internet" tab on TF3D and hit "launch browser" I want IE, not OPERA.
looking for the same thing but i want to make it opera and not IE

How to make Opera the default browser for links?
TD2 will not open a new Opera tab when clicking a link (hyperlink/hypertext link) in another document (like an e-mail or sms)
So, how to fix it?
It is the TouchFlow 3D interface that prevents this. Use the bottom left softkey labeled 'All Messages' to get to the standard WM messages screen ..... then click on your link

Yes, but it still opens link at IE... not opera.
OK, do this then (I take it that you have already tried just going into Opera options and setting it to be the default browser)....
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\DEFBROWSER]
0=Opera Browser
1="\Windows\OperaL.exe"
2=dword:1
3=dword:0
That didn't work. My TD2 still opens IE...

But I solved a problem this way, at HKCR I changed the extensions that I wanted opera to open
ftp, htmlfile, http, https, htmlfile, urlfile
I went every one of those to shell\open\command\default
and changed iexplorer.exe to OperaL.exe
I don't know is that the best way to do it, but it seems to work.
Especially GoogleMaps is now usable.
Have you tried Opera Mini 5 yet? I'm liking it on my TP
http://www.opera.com/mini/next/download/
it's gorgeous. it's actually laughable that other than somes issues with switching between landscape and portrait it's a better browser than opera mobile.

You need to copy the jad and the jar file to a folder on your storage card. Open Java from your programs menu. Tap menu/install/local files. Opera mini 5 beta should appear in the window. Highlight it and tap launch. Enjoy!
Im loving it too. Preferred browser of choice on every WM device of mine. But because higher res in TP, the font looks small even with the largest font setting turned on.
By far my best browser (first try).
Question. Can we get rid of these two questions at the beggining?

Sure can, just download the "signed" version of Opera Mini. In the download page, choose "other download" and pick "signed version" (or something like that). It will be downloaded like any other and after installed, ask about connection, at this part, choose "always".
can it be set as default browser?...

So I suppose this is all about beta version 5 I got. "Signed" version is still 4.2.
Thanks @u2pop.
Interesting comments, maybe Ill try it one more time. Just a month ago I felt it was offering nothing over mobile 9.5
i cant seem to make it finger friendly, its really hard to click or double click stuff with my finger, i have to try to pin point with my nail or either have to pull out the stylus, is there a setting to change this?

I think all you can do is set the font to "large", in that way you can see the link more easily.
Can you minimize this and do something else, like respond to a text or make a phone call without it popping up 5 seconds after being minimized?
Unsigned version without double confirmation for data usage
Yes that's Opera 5 mini latest beta (solid BTW) not 4.2.
Just install the cab, works like a champ.
anyone notice that you cannot scroll through web pages using the d-pad? I am a diehard opera mini user and had to uninstall for that reason

Yea I noticed that too, hope its only for beta. You guys know how to save bookmark collection? On previous release theres option to save all of your bookmark online. Now i need to manually set.
I see a lot of people like auto-rotation but it kills it for me.
I tried changing the registry (HKCU/GSENSOR) but it didn't help for Opera 10.
BUMP
Using Opera Mobile 10 Beta2u.
rebump. anyone found an answer yet//??
Stopping rotation!!
Hey I see you don't want Oprea to rotate.. Yeah sometimes bothers me when it rotates, but now it really dosen't bother me now. But I add this Cab. file where you can have any PROGRAM you choose to Rotate or Stop the ones you don't want rotating.. Hope this helps you out with your problem aite.. Good Luck to ya.....

Tried it out, didn't help.
Maybe I'm using it wrong. I added opera 10 to the list and unchecked it. Still autorotates.
Does BsB read the gsensor reg setting, by any chance?
Exit Opera.
Go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\GSensor]
Remove or Rename value "IdleTime"
Soft reset

looks like you were altering the wrong registry. Instead of HKLM you were in HKCU
Is there a setting that I am missing in order to keep getting the full website vs mobile. I know on some websites you have the option of clicking it there to change it. But not all of them have this option. Thanx.
Which browser?
The stock one. Thanx

Press on menu button, settings, scroll down to UAS string choose the preference you want.
If stock browser isnt giving you the experience you need try skyfire or dolphin browsers.

I tried googling and searching the threads here, but found no answer in the forums...
My question is, is there a way to view desktop sites in default browser? I tried using about:debug, but there is no option to set UASTRING on the menu...
I am using opera mobile and dolphin, but AFAIK there is no hardware acceleration on both, so I would like to try the default browser for some sites where I would need hardware acceleration...
If there is any please let mo know... Thanks!!!

On URL type
About:useragent
And press go, the a menu pops up choose desktop. Then type the site you want to see lets say www.Google.com it will now show the desktop version of Google not mobile one. Now carefull if you close the browser it goes back to normal. For more info just Google useragent android. It will give you some ideas about it.
Hope it will help you for a while
