World off line and Opera - General Topics

Hi everyone,
This is my first thread so I would like to say hello to everyone in this family, first of all.
OK, now the problem. I use world off line to record the news and other websites so I can read them every day when I go on the tube. For that and by default WOL uses Internet Explorer, but can someone tell me if it's posible to view WOL contents in Opera (as I like more the browser in my VGA pda). I've tried already setting up Opera as a default browser, but it still launches internet explorer.
Thank you.

Are you sure you did check in the "Set as default browser" checkbox in Opera Mobile? Try it once more and also make sure you poiwer down your PPC BEFORE resetting it (so that the Registry changes are surely flushed back to the Flash ROM)

I followed your advice but still the same, launches IE by default. I've emailed Sunnysoft to see if they can help me. I'll let you know if there is any advance.
Thank you for your help.

How do I change IE (HTC VOX) homepage?

I have this phone for 1 month or so..
Can't seem to find anything in the phone, useless manual or on the net..
heard something about registry..something..
Have no idea how to do that.. it's just annoying to press "favorites" and "google" every time I open Explorer.
someone?
I have irritated myself about this too. I recommend you try Opera instead, I can almost guarantee you'll be much more satisfied with it. I installed it yesterday (far too late, should have done it ages ago), and am very happy with it.
Thanks, I'll try that.
where can i get the opera browser that works ? i try opera 8.0 and there its issue with buttons ..
Opera 8.65 will not install on my Vox. Anyone know how to get it to install on the Vox?

if you have access to a registry editor, you will need to edit the paths below
hklm -> software -> microsoft -> internet explorer -> about urls -> howe_xxx
change the entry in home xxx depending on the version of handset, this can be found out based on the default start page idisplayed.
rgs
thank you.
btw, That's what I call a user-friendly operating system.
GOOD JOB MICROSOFT!

How to access college wifi with user name & password??

Ok so they give us a password to connect to the wifi, then from there if you are on a laptop then browser automatically opens and you input a user name and password...this then connects you. I'm not too sure how to do this on my Jasjar, do i manually configure? How? Where do i input username and password because the browser doesnt automatically open for me. We are trying to connect using phones, iphones, and my ppc. How do I connect??
Thanks for reading.
Do you know what kind of authentication used in your school? It's 802.1x? Do you have to install a certificate? Try to find out more information...
Open a good browser(say opera) and try opening any site on it. This is most likely the case. You'll be auto-directed to the page where you can input the user-id and password
I have similar problem.
The VPN solution that is used needs users to authenticate via xauth, which is not supported by WM.
Does anyone have a good proposal for a client to use?
If there's no free solution I don't (really) care about the costs.

@ loiz
Thanks for the links
I tried to find some proper software myself, but apparently i did something really wrong!
The decription of the NCP Tool looks promising, as it should include everything I need. I'll give it a try (could take some days) and tell whether I've been lucky or not...
I downloaded Opera so i will try with that tomorrow...I cant understand German so i cant understand that link and cant download. Will see with Opera anyway, thanks.

You don't need to
First, on the german version of the NCP homepage youget to the downloads by clicking Downloads, then choosing Software, then the Client, that's also named english
If you can't figure out how to set up he account needed in german, just click on the little American flag in the upper right of the screen
It's present on the homepage and the downloads page.
The second link is just an instruction anyway, except for the link to the SecureW2 Client. You should find the (english) homepage of that via google. You don't need to bother downloading that if the authentication method isn't 802.11.
Thanks mate, but I tried with Opera and it works!!! Now to find a way to access msn!!

You can allways use online live messenger http://mobile.live.com/pocketpc/
Been looking for a way to get it to work at college as well.
Have got no idea what do cause we use certificates here, have one on my ppc and installed it (on sd as well as the device).
Got practically everything filled out except when selecting a certificate i get the message that there is none.
Been trying to consult the It-services desk but they have no experience whit this.
Do you have any idea which steps i should take?
Thanks in advance
Online messengers are blocked also, they use some burst filtering software or something, will check to see if i can find an unblocked site. Would be great if there was a way to allow everything. Thanks lads.

question about customizing touch flo

hey guys, this is what i'm trying to do:
when i go to contacts tab, when i click on all people, it opens up the default contacts program. i want it to open another program (finger friendly friends). how do i do that? i downloaded diamond TF3D config, and it doesnt seem like you can do that... any ideas? thanks
omar

Check the iContact thread because I think this question was asked. I.e. if you hit the phone button and then "contacts" it will load iContact, however from the people tab it won't. I'm not sure they ever resolved that problem, but if they did, please post the response here, because iContact seems like a much better program (and the scrolling is the best I've seen on Windows Mobile...)
i didnt find anything (a link to that thread would be nice). but i'm thinking a simple registry edit would suffice??

Hi weeman

hi
yes its IE i am using,to get skyfire do i just google it and download via the phone?
Thats because adobe have decided not to release flash 10.1 support for windows mobile
Thats because adobe have decided not to release flash 10.1 support for windows mobile. Have a look at the thread about adobe not supporting flash on win mobile 6.5.
here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=670455
Email adobe about it. This effects us all.
But for now skyfire will work.

http://get.skyfire.com/dl_winmo.php check this out
or maybe you can find Skyfire in the MS Marketplace.
thanks guys
i installed skyfire,it has gave me video back when browsing thankfully,tho not without probs on some sites,streams really slowly whereas when i was on the same sites previously with IE it streamed very smoothly.
Also is there any option to watch video full screen when browsing,as i can only seem to make it zoom in which is ok but the fact i cant get the address bar or skyfire toolbar to dissapear makes the viewable screen too small.
tap the icon on the bottom right (where the settings are). There you will find "Fullscreen Mode" to hide the adressbar and toolbar.
skyfire available on omarket, also try uzard.com pretty good and free!

Have you ever thought about using google's youtube app rather than viewing video streams through your browser?
I've attached the cab for it in case anyone is interested.
Kindest regards,
