Hey,
Running CM 6 RC1. Is there a way to change the user agent for a signaled site instead of client wide so it only behaves as such when on one of the websites in a list or something?

I log into many websites and i hated typing my full email address or user name so i googled and i found this. It works great since captivate users can't so this with stock.

Anyone know how? I would like to be able to view some regular websites on this.
Thanks,

I know in Dolphin you can from within settings. And skyfire has a quick user agent switch button at the top.

You can change useragent in the stock browser by entering: about:useragent in the browser, but it will reset itself every time you exit the browser. You can also install Opera, Boat Browser or Dolphin (and many more) and set the user agent in the settings.

Thanks ill try that out, I prefer the original web browser, pretty weird they don't use chrome browser as default browser and you cannot import chrome settings and bookmarks from desktops

Hey I just checked and there is no, about option in the browser to switch the UA

Do you type it into the adress field? if "about:useragent" doesn't work then try "config:useragent"
Well, in CM7 and Streak Froyo/GB it is "about: debug"
I just tried it and that brings up a ton of different options under more and settings... But no UA.
I use Dolphin for desktop mode... when I'm not running CM9 alpha.
Its about:useragent

Fyi.... ICS in fact does automatically syncs your chrome bookmarks and of course has request desktop site as a menu option.
Ok I'm sorry I didn't realise you have to type it in the address bar I thought it was in the settings but i got it figured, I just hope the ics would be worth the wait I mean comparing it to the ios 5 doesn't really seem that big of a deal, does have cool features but..... still lacks alot

Hello all,
I am trying to install a browser content filter on my Nexus 7 but have failed to find a decent option. I have tried Mobicip but it was a buggy piece of junk and didn't even filter anything! I am investigating CloudOn Safe Browser but it has gotten mixed reviews on the Play Store. Has anyone used this or any other filtering app on their Nexus 7s? I am interested on hearing what content filter app you guys use. Thanks!
Anyone?
Do u mean an add blocker. I don't know if one for android exists if so, but ad away blocks in app ads (root) and might be possible to add a source to block web adds or whatever want.

maybe opera mobile ? it can filter i.e. ads by specifying a hosts file without root

If this is for home use, you can create an account on OpenDNS for free, set your router to use OpenDNS servers and filter it at that level...but that would filter your whole home.

I want a content filter that filters inappropriate stuff on the Internet. I don't want to use OpenDNS because I don't want to filter the whole house.

Try this. Has a free and paid version. Looks like it does content filtering as well as some other nice things (antivirus, anti theft, etc).

You could set the dns servers on the tab to opendns
Theres an app called set dns that looks good for this

Here is another free one.
Check out "Safe Browser -The Web Filter"

I also saw K9 (used the PC version and it was good)
There are a bunch of 4 to 5 star free web content filters in the play store.

8 year old is getting Nexxy 7 for Christmas. Need to put some restrictions in place to prevent his precious eyes seeing things he shouldn't ; )
Does anyone know of any decent apps\methods to restrict web browsing?
I think I have everything else covered - with the help of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997986
Suppose if it comes to it I can just freeze the browser with tit backup.
Thanks,
Andy.

If you are looking for a free solution opendns might be an option for you... You set the dns servers either in the device or router
Opendns then filters traffic based on your ip... Might be worth a look

Thanks for reply.
Have thought about this.. How do you go about changing DNS servers on Android though? (It would probably be 4.2)
Setting the DNS on the router I could do - but that would filter everything in the house wouldn't it?

Not something I thought about. The lol a quick Google search gives a few reply... There is a set dns application in the play store.
Thought about doing it on the router... Connecting to any other network would result in unfiltered access so not ideal.... There are other proxy services out there... Might be worth looking in play store for a solution?
