When I use my phone on the net I cant go to every web site like my pc...You probably know that but is there any apps or anything I can do that will let me access more or all sites with phone?? Or is a mobile phone only allowed to visit "mobile web sites"?
Let me know

awesome,just tried it,works perfect
thanks
Skyfire, Iris, Opera, and IE all can see all of the sites. You need to check your settings whether it wants to be recognized as a mobile or desktop. If mobile is set, then some sites will redirect you to the mobile sites.

I need access to a direct ftp port with the http://65988.0023.XXX style connection but I can't get access to it unless I am using WIFI? what setting can I change to stop this?
try disabling the proxy settings, sometimes bypassing your networks proxy settings will open up all sorts of options you where once blocked from accessing
how would I go about that? I didn't know I was behind proxy settings? And do I need them to access medianet?
in your connection settings go to manage existing connection, select proxy settings and untick the box that says this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet and leave the box ticked that says this network connects tothe internet.
Ive disables my proxy settings for t-mobile Uk internet settings and now it connects alot faster and pages seem to be loading faster also
doesn't work... Darn this sux... I test it with www.msn.com and it still makes it pull up msn.mobile... how annyoing...
bump anyone have anything on this?
I would really appreciate help with this because I have to access a program that I can't otherwise.
If you're looking to hit an FTP site, then I'd grab an FTP client for WM and stop futzing with IE in the first place. Or am I misunderstanding what you're doing?
not it is not an ftp it is an http://112.2232.224:2324 type of site... that is all.
Don't know your carrier but here's a cab that disables the "hidden" proxy in AT&T and one that restores it. Worth a try?

YEAAAAAAAAAAA I don't know what happened... but since I installed your thing it works perfect. damn I was getting peaved... when I go to msn.com thought it still brings up msn.mobile though. Well at least I can go to anywebsite I want now.
Do I ever need to put the proxies back? I guess I should just put this on my card just in case.
Again, Thanks... What else am I able to do now?
In the Tilt, Internet Explorer's user agent string is locked to mobile internet, meaning that websites will see your device as a mobile device. If the site has a mobile site, it will automatically re-direct you to that. In WM5 devices, you could use software to change IE's user agent string to make it look like a desktop, but on the Tilt, you can't.
You'll need to get Opera Mobile if you want the internet to see your phone as a desktop.
I think for what your trying to do you need to use the MY ISP settings instead of medianet settings. But I don't know what they are anymore. I think you will also need the right data plan to use them.
does PIEPlus User Agent setting work with Tilt?

Is this true even if using PIEPlus? PIEPlus Tools>Options Plus>User Agent allows setting User Agent to IE 5.5 or IE 6.0 (which should be seen by websites as a regular computer) in addition to the default PIE setting (which is seen as mobile)

what is pie plus. First off, I tried using opera mobile desktop setting and when I went to www.msn.com it still comes up as mobile. Do I have to configure something further?
Lastly, I just told you all that the program for turning off the hidden proxies worked. So for what I was trying to do those programs the other person posted worked nicely. However, it still sucks that I can't bypass the mobile crap... There is a program called deepfish from microsoft that addresses the issue exactly, however the jerks won't let the beta out any further. I am gonna aaddress that issue in another post.
I believe the problem is something in the WM6 or the Tilt itself because Opera doesn't work either.
Boy I'm glad you guys worked on this. I upgraded to Tilt yesterday and was cracking my head against the wall trying to figure out why the HTTP addresses wouldn't resolve with the same settings I've been using in my 8525. @#$%#@ Hidden Proxy! lol
Cheers and Happy New Year!

In Opera Mobile go to Menu>Tools>Settings then change Identify as from Handheld device to Desktop computer.
Hi
I'm having difficulty downloading google maps from the web page m.google.com/maps.
On that page, it doesn't offer the download, and just links the pages where you can search maps through the browser.
Is this some limitation from Orange?
http://theloanranger.romraid.com/GoogleMaps-2.0.1.33-ms-htc-compress.cab
Thanks. I found the problem was with Opera, I don't know why.
It downloads correctly with PIE.
Unfortunately the link you give doesn't work but you anyone else can get the cab from here

its because Opera 'tricks' the site into thinking its a desktop computer so that you get the full site and not some crappy wap or mobile version. In the old Opera Mobile you used to be able to switch profiles from desktop to mobile but I don't see this option anymore....most annoying that these sites don't just give you the opportunity to download the cab to your desktop because
then this problem wouldn't occur.
I thought as much.
To be honest, I would prefer to see the mobile version of a site first and then have the option of seeing the desktop version. Generally when reading web sites on the phone you want to get to information as quick as possible.
OPera on the touch does give you an option for a "mobile view" of web pages - ebnable it under "settings - display"
yes but that only changes the screen layout
Unfortunately Google Map isn't available for my region Hong Kong, the nearest location is Taiwan. So sad, I would love to try it out on my Diamond. Although I do have MapKing2007 installed on my device but google Map seems to be a better alternative.
Anybody can help? Appreciate it!
I read on another thread that you can spoof the user agent by opening opera:config.
I tried changing the custom user agent under user preferences to IE, but no luck.
Hi. some websites open as wap or mobile version with the compact IV. this especially with Ebay and can't access all the features you find on normal webpage. How can I make the phone surf as a desktop? in my old various II with wm6 it had advantage options you could choose this...
You can either use Opera Mobile or change the regedit value to render full pages (try Schap's Tool).
opera
thanks. I tried the opera (w&w) as well but same issue. websites still recgnize it as phone and open mobile versions of the sites...
Opera has never opened up a mobile page for me. If that doesn't work, then the regedit will certainly fix it as it'll tell the website to recognize it as some desktop browser hence the reason it'll open it as a desktop page.
there is a option in settings for Opera which u can uncheck to stop it sending the Mobile info.
opera
Hi.. I did find that option, dont know how I missed it! However unticking it... websites like ebay.co.uk opens up with wap version... (in ebay you can choose to open the 'classic' screen although) but other websites such as www.univision.com opens as wap version even though the option is unticked in Opera...
strange.
I have the opposite problem... I can't open any wap sites in Opera, somehow it always launches the full webpage. It's not always good since I pay a lot for the data traffic. As long as I'm on WIFI it's great of course...
Is ther an app or a web address that lets you check your xbox friends list from your kaiser? I was using the xbox.com on opera mobile but when you logon it now goes to the mobile live site! I can use PIE but just wondered if there is anything a little more user friendly than PIE. I just downloaded zumobi for xbox but iot doesnt automatically check your friends list you have to add them manually!

Hello all,
I am curious as to how secure the various browsers are on Winmo 6.1 are.
I'm currently using Opera Mini as my main browser but also have Internet Explorer and Opera.
I'm thinking of using mainly for ordering goods over the internet or checking my bank account details...is this wise with Winmo??
Is there any difference between the 3 browsers for security. I tend not to use Skyfire as I'm led to believe that details are sent to their servers first...is this true with other browsers too.
Thanks in advance for any help
Opera Mini also connects through Opera's servers to compress the web pages you view, while Opera Mobile and Pocket Internet Explorer both directly connect to the web site's server.
Personally, I'll only use browsers that use direct connections, but that's just my opinion.
Concerning security in general, as long as you're browsing SSL-encrypted sites ("https" instead of "http") you'll be fine.
However, if you're connecting through Wi-Fi networks, especially unsecured ones, you can never be sure who's listening in on whatever you're doing on the Internet. Basically, even in this case you should be fine when using SSL-encrypted sites, although it's possible for an attacker to fake the security certificates. In this case your browser will alert you that something may be wrong with the certificate though, which usually isn't the case on a legitimate web site.
Thanks for your answer...
I had a feeling that Opera Mini may have been similar in it's working to Skyfire hence I have until now only used that for browsing and posting on forums such as now.
I will in future use either Opera or IE for any kind of purchasing or banking transactions...
Cheers
