Where can I find the user agent registry key of Opera?

In IE, i can found this key at HKLM\security\IE\agentbase .. .. ... which I can set the agent of of the browser to P3650 Mozilla Firefox 4.0 (pretend as a Touch Cruise).
But how can I do it for the Opera Browser?
Thanks

It's in the file opera.ini located in Windows/Opera9

thanks, i found it.
But can't do what I want, server still able to identify my handset is Diamond which i don't want.
Does anyone of you have some suggestions?

Check in \application data\Opera9, there is an opera.ini too
Seb = = = o>°o

@Bandit13
\application data\Opera9 does not exist.

Is there anything in about:config or is that where the ini file already points to?
I managed to get my banking working by changing it in there and they pick up handset and browser type.
Don't know I'm just adding to the mix here!

yeah, go in opera:config, at the end in the section named "User Prefs" you can set a custom user-agent, or if you want to spoof it with a pc one, you can directly go in the section named User-Agent and you can choose which one you want to "spoof" (internet explorer, firefox...)

@ericsson68 and idsk
where can I found the files you mentioned?
and how should edit so that i can spoof it as firefox?
The one that i tried to edit opera.ini was "HTC_P3650 Mozilla/4.0 (Windows NT, 5.1; U; en)" ... but doesn't work though

How to modify User Agent in Opera Browser
Hi,
I've made a little illustrated tutorial in this thread : How to modify User Agent in Opera Browser
Except the fact that it's in french, I think it's very easy to understand with the screenshots ^^

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

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.

Mods: pls delete - moved : How to get correct CSS font to render in Opera Mobile 9.5?

Mods: I am posting this in general since it makes more sense because it doesn't only affect the Raphael. You may delete this thread. I apologize for this. Thank you.
New thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3508634
I have done extensive searching here and on google and cannot find this answer. I hope somebody here has a clue how to accomplish this.
I want Opera Mobile to render the correct font as defined in the website author's CSS when I view a web page. I have found information on how to install Opera fonts, and I've gotten this to work, but only for the Generic Font Family settings.
Here is what is happening...
1. Using Opera 9.5, build 15613
2. Installed Microsoft's "web fonts" to \Windows AND \Windows\Fonts
3. When installed to \Windows, WM6.1 recognizes new fonts. If I go into Word, for example, I see all the fonts (Arial, Times New Roman, Georgia, Verdana, etc.)
4. When I go into Opera, I can go into the opera:config and change the "CSS Generic Font Family" and "Fonts" settings to get it to use an alternate font. As an example, I installed Consolas from Vista because it looks better than Courier New and when I changed monospace and Form.Text to Consolas, it worked perfectly. Note: this only worked after making a copy of all the fonts into the \Windows\Fonts folder, so that is where Opera looks, apparently.
5. When I go to a website that I KNOW uses Georgia as its primary font (can verify on desktop browser), the entire site is rendered still as Tahoma. This is very easy to spot because Georgia is a very different looking font than Tahoma.
6. When I go into a text field on this site, it uses Consolas instead of Courier New, as expected, because the site does not specify a font for textboxes. But this verifies that Opera is seeing the alternate fonts, just choosing not to use them when rendering the sites.
Is it possible to get Opera to load the font specified in the author's CSS file? If so, how?
What else I've tried:
1. "Author Display Mode" and "User Display Mode" - disabling User Fonts and Colors and User CSS in BOTH spots.
2. Soft reset

Mediafire solution

ive seem alot of people asking devs to mirror stuff other then MF, they say they cant get into it from their phone.
This is
TRY loading the page as a http socket /desktop View
for example download opera mini i know it supports it, or Dolphin HD users, download desktop view plugin to load all pages as you would normally see em on a computer, not gonna mention chrome beta cuz it aint supported by our phone

but it is supported, all you need to do is install this rom that works very fine to be a nightly and you are good to go 'cause it's based on ICS 4.0.4 there is only two mood killers right now camera an mobile data are still waiting to be enabled, but I'm prepare to make it my daily use rom, I'll just wait 'till the data issue is solve, I even dust off my Cyber-shot to take it with me for as long as we have no camera,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1650537

that was the rom i was using, mediafire was not working on mobile for at least 5 hours

Or another thing you could do is to type in the address bar: about:debug (type it exactly as I wrote it here) and then go to settings (you'll see a lot of new options) and then scroll al the way down to UAString. There you will find the following options:
Android
Desktop
iPhone
iPad
Froyo-N1
These may vary depending on the ROM you have, but when I download from mediafire I usually use Desktop or iPad mode. After this all you have to do is refresh.
This will save you the hassle of downloading a new browser and it's plug-ins.
Hope I helped you.

Hi, this is my solution, the way I have been surfing 100% like desktop last months.
Open this post with your phone, and copy this user agent string:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/536.6 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/20.0.1092.0 Safari/536.6
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now, you need to open the hidden menu (3845#*970#) and go to Browser Utility.
Do the following steps:
1- Edit UAProfile. Delete all the text and save.
2- Enable/disable X-wap-profile. Touch so its says "ua-profile is 0"
3- Edit UAString. Delete all and paste the string you copied before, and save
4- Enable/Disable Test UAString. Touch to set enabled.
Set all your browser to desktop mode and reboot.
Now all the internet sites will think you're using chrome 20 in windows 7
Opera users:
This wont fix it for you.
You need to type this in the address bar:
about:config
Now go all down to the "User Prefs" settings.
Move down until you see "Custom User-Agent"
Paste here the same string you copied before.
Go to the end of page and touch Save.
Kill opera or reboot, logically you need to first set the opera in desktop mode (in advanced settings).
In this way I have Opera, Dolphin and the stock browser surfing with desktop chrome user agent.
Enjoy!

Worked fine for me too with opera. Nice work.

Yeah, it will slow down in some webs, especially in those with ads, so lots of gifs, banners everywhere...but for that you can use "ADaway" from market and block most of the ads... the best is to configure plugins to load on touch, else if you open few tabs all will load and run any embedded flash showing ads or whatever, really slowing down everything.
I surf pretty fast in most of sites, considering that it is a mobile device

For my mediafire works good again in the stock browser

Opera Mobile User Agent String to Force Mobile View?

I am using Opera Mobile on a rooted Nook Simple Touch. I want to force Mobile view (it's better for e-ink) but in the settings dialog the only options are "Tablet" and "Desktop"
What custom user agent string should I use in opera:config?

We recently added a custom opera:config setting to the desktop version called "Custom User-Agent" under "User Prefs". I notice that this is also available on Opera Mobile for Android, so you could give it a try.
For a list of known userangent strings, try a Google search for "opera mobile 12 useragent string". The first search result I get is from "myip.ms", which seems to show real ones (for both Android and Symbian).
Be careful, though. A broken useragent string could cause serious compatibility issues.

I think this should do it.
It took me too long to figure it out, so here it is.
I went to whatsmyuseragent.com and copied the user agent string.
Code:
Opera/9.80 (Android 2.1; Linux; Opera Tablet/ADR-1207201819; U; en) Presto/2.10.254 Version/12.00
Guessing it should be...
Code:
Opera/9.80 (Android 2.1; Linux; Opera Mobi/ADR-1207201819; U; en) Presto/2.10.254 Version/12.00
I pasted in the modified "Tablet" to "Mobi" string in "Custom User-Agent string" in the "User Prefs" section. Which is not to be confused with "User Agent Spoof" in the "User Agent" section. The dash is key.
And, no restart is required. engadget.com now redirects to m.engadget.com.
