OPERA

Hi - is it possieto erase OPERA in order to work only with IE ?
I takes always long `til opera is opened !
What do you think?
thanks
myrin

Not really sure if i'm understanding you correctly but you want to get rid of Opera? If that's the case and Opera and "stoned" into the ROM, you can't delete it. If you added it manually, you can remove it via start>settings>system>remove programs.

If Ican`t get rid of it can I mke IE my first choice ref. widows live searches ?

Yes you can, however it's a regedit and it's being discussed here. As soon as i find the right key, i'll report back here so that you can make PIE default

Opera just died on me

X7510 running stock ROM, WM 6.1.
When I go to start Opera, or click on a link in an email, the flash screen starts up, the graphic works on the flash screen, then nothing, the app itself refuses to launch. Yes I have tried a soft reset.
As a workaround, how could I make something else the default browser, like Netfront Access, so that it would automatically start when I click on a web link?
thanks

try setting
try setting,personal then buttons from there you can change it to any browser you have installed,so when you hold on to home button it should open up the browser that you set.

thanks, that works, but the problem is that if I click on a link in an email, it automatically tries to open Opera, and of course fails. I would like it to open the beta of Netfront Access, or even a different beta of Opera, but at least to open some working browser that goes to the link!!
Is there some way of setting the default browser in the registry?
thanks

when i try to access my email or sign in on ebay.it shuts opera down even if i use internet explorer.why dont you set up a direct email so it dosent open opera

I don't think you can- and it frustrates the hell out of me as well
I want to use Netfront for all browser activity and I have it set as the default browser, but any web links within emails still open Opera. I've tried going right through the registry changing all the references to Opera to point to Netfront but it still happens so there must be a hard coded instruction somewhere!

thanks - I tried the latest beta of Opera, but it too failed saying that it couldn't initiate DirectDraw, whavever that may mean.
I have re-loaded now, see what happens.
thanks - and I agree with the frustration over app associations!

using opera as default

hello
does anyone know of how to set titanium to use opera from the today screen rather than internet explorer?
i'm presuming i have to use a registry editor, but i'm never played with one before so has anyone tried this, or recommend a good editor?

Reinstall HTC HD2 YouTube App

Hi,
I installed the youtube app from m.google.com thinking it would update my existing one.
But once installed, it looked completly different and not as nice as the preivous one.
Is there anyway to get the orginal YouTube app. Or is it still installed somwhere in main memory, as I installed the new version on the storage card.
Thanks for any help here.
The ROM version I have is: 1.48.405.2 (71294) WWE

I have the exact same problem. The program is in the Windows folder but cannot get it back to the quicklinks button as i installed a similar youtube app and then removed it...which caused the quicklink for the actual youtube not to work
any help?

I made this mistake a while back.
What I did was backup my settings and appoinments via device center and myphone.
Then just factory reset the thing. It came back after doing so.
However I believe someone on here and made a cab out of it so it should be floating here somewhere.

Yep, tried the user made app but it was lagging so uninstalled it.
Will resetting remove all of the apps i have added to the device?
Thanks for the reply

Thanks that worked!!! I copied a shortcut of the youtube.exe that was 25b from the windows folder to windows->Start Menu->Programs and it brought it back!!! Great.

Sorry for asking the same question twice, but
I do not have a YouTube.exe in my windows folder on my tmobile hd2
Is there any way to get the official htc YouTube app on my hd2 without flashing?

Youtube App
I've personally been having trouble with various youtube apps on my HTC HD2.
This one is the most stable. Interface is slightly different than the stock one but must more stable and I personally prefer. Enjoy and give me feedback.

I really like the new interface. Extremely fast in all aspects from loading, searching, signing on etc. Nice, clean and easy to use. My only wish would be to have an option of playback quality to a higher option. Thanks on this and for sharing.

hard reset my friend...

Sky remote record for hd2

I have just stumbled across this The .cab file linked from the Digital Spy forum is attached. It is an app to access Sky Remote Record from a WM device.
I have been waiting for something like this for a looooooooong time.
I have checked it out and it works and is easy to use. The only problem I have at the moment is that it does not appear to close properly... had to use task manager to close it.

does it have a monthly fee?

Hi there all, first time post so be kind. Anyway, I tried to install this CAB but I get an error saying 'installation failed'. If I go to p.wecomm.com/sky directly from my phone I can download the relevant file (SkyMobile-WM6_PPCP-1.2.0.0) but all it does is open up an appearance settings page for 'Today'. Strange.
Ive had no problems downloading and installing Co0kie's Home Tab Editor, BsB Tweaks, Microsoft .NET etc. so I don't think it's me (but I could be wrong).
Has anyone had this problem and resolved it, or can think of something else I can try?

I downloaded from the site and installed without a problem. The only problem i have is that it does not close. If i use task manager to close it ,it does not work and i have to reinstall it to get it to work. The only way i can get it to work consistantly it to reset the device after i have set the recording.
It seems pretty unstable. I will keep an eye on any updates.

That's strange. I've now managed to install it ok thanks to a reply on another thread i'd started. I agree that it doesn't close but it definately gets closed via task manager and I don't have to reinstall it. Try the CAB file provided as a reply to my other post in the new thread (search for my posts - I only have three - and you'll see the thread). That CAB seemed to work fine.

Hi, I've used this for a while too and also have to open my task manager to ensure it is closed properly.
Also, I find it very difficult to type on the small keyboard when logging in....but maybe that's just my fat fingers

Hi all,
Try installing the attached cab.
It has the same name as the cab in post 1 but it's the one i use and i have no problems with it at all. Everything works as it should and it closes properly.
Hope it helps.

Great App... works very well... Now only if SKY would officially launch it

Strange. Don't need to on mine.

can you produce an underscore from the keyboard?
my user name has one and I can't enter it!

Me too. I select ok on the "data total exit screen" and it drops me back to the main menu of the app. Have to press home then task manager to close it. If I then re-load the app I cannot load details of a TV programme. Thus making the app unuseable :0(

what exactly does this software do?

it lets you view sky channels and record sky programs remotely. you have to set up your sky account first (username/password) but its free and it works!

Doesn't work for all of us. See the "exit" problems above.

Working... mostly...
hi,
I've been using this for quite some time. It works, in the sense that I can start it, browse sky listings, get prog info and set recordings (most important features!). It is not working, or a bit poor, in the following areas... won't close (though mine does close in task manager and no restart issues), keyboard in waaaayyy too small and really hard to use, scrolling though channels is slow and tedious and there are occasional crashes.
However, it lets me record when I'm away, so I'm grateful... needs some work though to be a complete package.

im going to try this, but need to know how i can make it work for Foxtel (Australian rebranded Sky+)

HTC touch 2
I to am having problems with this app. When first installed and first time use it works ok but does fail to close. When you use again it fails to connect when you press record and times out. But only on certain pages the news channels always seems to work but all channels and the movies only work sometimes. I have tried a power off and back on but seems to make no difference. I do notice that the pass word box is emty after you have saved it so could this be a problem?

Since I flashed my ROM to Energy's I have not been able to sign into this app with my Sky ID - I get a 'failed to connect to authentication service' error. Has anyone else encountered this? Could it be due to my flashed ROM?
