HELP!! HTC Touch Pro - Opera Mobile problem. - General Questions and Answers

Ok I just got the HTC Touch Pro as you all know it comes with Opera Mobile. I cannot get the Opera Mobile to display the desktop version of the internet. For instance I go to Yahoo and get Yahoo Mobile!! I went to menu>settings>display>and unchecked the mobile display option. I got pissed off and downloaded the Opera again and the new version went to the desktop page! However with two Opera's on the phone it locks up and does not work right at all. So....I uninstalled the Opera I had installed and the left the default opera on the phone. Does anyone know how I can get this thing to quit displaying the mobile fing internet!!
Thanks guys any help is great I appreciate all the cool programs you guys come up with btw!

called alltel and they dont know why either...lol

well I downloaded skyfire for now.....it works, but if anyone could help me fix this problem I would really appreciate it. Thank you

Need help with Messenger on Htc touch pro

I got a Htc touch pro, bought it yesterday. I like the MDA but I can't find the right messenger 6,1 release for it. I've tried everything but still it doesn't work. The farest I could get was I've installed it on my mda, messenger starts up and then you'll need to sign in, but It doesn't. And after that you'll type your email adress and personall code, I've seen it over a thausand times on my friends mda (Samsung omni) but when he bought his one it allready had messenger on it. But I don't, I know I can be a bit annouyin' but I need desperately help..
I'm from Europe, so please don't mind the wrong grammatics, now and than
But the Touch Pro also has MSN Messenger pre-installed. You must go through the Windows Live set-up which is not very intuitive but you don't need to install anything else...

Has anyone tried IM Plus on the TP? It isn't free is the biggest problem I have with it.
I bought mine in a t-mobile shop and their is no windows live messenger or a windows live on it... I searched the mda with his search application. Does someone knows how to install a good version of windows live messenger?

Opera puts "file:localhost/" in front of every url

I have this problem with opera and opening links, using like 5 different rss readers, ive used spb, sbsh and a few others.
The problem is i cant open any links because opera keeps putting file:localhost/ in front of the url. I dont know if opera thinks the website is located on my phone?
strange,,, can anyone help me?
thanks in advance
This was happening to me when trying to use push page bookmarks with an old version of Opera. I upgraded to version 9.5 16xxx and the problem was fixed.
thanks a lot, the update solved the problem. I found this version of opera a little faster but also a little less stable.,

Best browster with Flash for HD2?

hiho
i have ROm 1.48 on my phone, and IE + Opera 9. The most time i surf with Opera 9. But i hear, there are more browsers for the HD2.
What is the fastest browser for the HD2 at the moment, and where can i get it?
How can i upgrade the IE, if a update is available.
Can u post plz the URLS for the Browsers. I hear only about the IE, opera, Fennec and Skyfire. But could not find any URL.
Last but not least
how can i uninstall Apps like (Bing, Windows Start, Alc Copilot etc.)?
cant find them in the Program deinstallation.
thx
Skyfire download page. It supports flash but I can't say it's the best browser I've ever used. I use my Opera...
ok thx. try this out
i use the Opera 9.7 i think. Is it better to upgrade to Opera 10? What is better in Version 10? Faster browsing? Have V 10 Flash support?
Skyfire is great for its Flash support (it even handles Silverlight) but is annoying otherwise. For anything that doesn't require Skyfire, I stick to the built-in version of Opera. The Beta version of Opera Mobile 10 isn't bad, but I don't like the whole only-two-levels-of-zoom thing.
I really begin to hate opera, it has problem with more and more sites. for example tvrage.com I can't even login. I send my u/p and I'm back at the login page but not logged in. lastpass.com doesn't work, it just goes nowhere. but I get a lot of those annoying layer-ads.
really, opera mobile 9.7 is a big ****-up.
I'll have a look at skyfire until ff mobile is out.

Opera Mini still is the best!
By the way: You can use the attached file to get a signed version of Opera Mini 5 Beta 2 so you no longer have to allow data connections everytime you open it... Just place the zipped file inside "My Documents" and "install from storage" (or whatever your version of Java says) and it should work!
Thank you

Just put that into my phone, great not having to keep allowing net access and permission... just one question, is there a way i can make opera mini into a shortcut onto the quick links page? I can make Jblend (which handles java programs) but i cant seem to make a program inside it become a quick link?
Hope you can help or anyone else please
Opera mini 5 supports flash ?
Opera Mini is better than Opera Mobile?

Yes! It has pretty much exactly the same interface and is A LOT faster, even if you enable Turbo in Opera Mobile!

depends on your point of view, opera mini (4, 5 or 5.2) has always been much faster to load up web pages, Opera (standard) is fine if you have a hsdpa signal, but its way to slow to be useful in just 3g speeds.. Opera mini still battles on and makes it not that annoying.

No, I'm sorry, I have no idea!
The strange thing is: On SOME ROMs (back when I used my Blackstone) installing Opera Mini DID create it's own shortcut. On others it doesn't... No idea, what the critieria is...
EDIT: If you find a way, please let me know!
EDIT2: Just found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=258141 Should be helpful! Since I use Esmertec instead of JBlend, you have to check for yourself!
I installed Opera mini 5 by going to the offical download page in my phone browser. It couldnt identify my phone. Does that mean it dosent support hd2?
I could install it anyway but when i try to log on facebook i cant write in the login box.

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.

Wtf.... yahoo wont load desktop

So wtf... all of asudden I am no longer able to load desktop version of yahoo...
I normally use skyfire and have never had to redo the uas but now no matter what it just goes to yahoo mobile. Even on the ****ty android browser I hit about:debug choose desktop and its right
back to "m.yahoo.com." . Anyone else having this? My droid seems to be fine loads desktop version no issues.
BTW I am running froyo rooted and no I don't want gb.
meh...
Ok so its not just me... just tried the woman's g2x and skyfire and stock browser will NOT load yahoo as desktop...
Seems its just yahoo other websites load fine in desktop....anyone?
meh...
Ok so Firefox seems to work but wow does it suck....
Any one else having this issue? Or had or know why or anything would like to go back to skyfire...
meh...
Bump... wow not one response. Do people actually enjoy mobile version?
This is a deal breaker for me.
Just doesn't make sense how or why this would happen. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Can you use proxies on with Google?
meh...
People probably don't use yahoo. I haven't for years. It sounds to me like yahoo is redirecting you there. I doubt the phone has much to do with it. Many mobile sites include a link to switch to the desktop mode. You might try asking yahoo to include an option for that. Opera mobile might be another option.
