I have a HD7 running on NoDo, and I have an issue on visiting pocketnow's site. The mobile version of the site does not show up as list view for me, well, it used to be like gizmodo's mobile site in the past. But now, it's like article headings with pictures to each of them. I need help in reverting it back to how it's supposed to be?

Hey there XDA,
I have just recently bought a 'Samsung i600 Blackjack' phone and it has Windows Mobile 6.0 on it.
I've installed SkyFire Web Browser on it and I find that pretty good, but the next thing I want on it is the "Windows Live Messenger" so I can talk to friends while I'm doing work etc.
When you go onto the Microsoft Mobile website, you look around and you have to enter your mobile number to get it (only available to American's not Australian's) - So does anybody know how to do this?
I really want it.
Thanks guys any help would be appreciated.
I wouldn't mind putting a Linux based OS on there instead of Windows Mobile or whatever it is called.
If there is any info on a different OS or how to get Windows Live Messenger on my phone that would be bloody appreciated.
Thanks!
I am sure there is a cab file around somewhere. Try using the search link in my sign!

Just searching around for phones and then i saw this one. Its called a Anycool t1000 and its got windows mobile on it! Ive searched this forum for the word anycool and found nothing. I presume its some china junk phone. But would be cool to test it out.
I found it here.

is it really winmo?
i dont see winmo OS mentioned from the site
yea i did a search on that webpage with the keywords "win" and nothing relating windows mobile showed up. on the pic it shows "Windows Media" and looks similar to WinMo. never seen that phone before. anyone else know?
From the looks of it, it isn't a WM phone but a Chinese imitation. There are plenty of then floating around here in India.
yea its weird ay.. surely having a phone that looks like winmo and has the media player called windows media player must b illegal. but yet since this phone is so hard to find it mustnt be winmo. or someone jus photoshoped that screenshot of course
(sorry 4 the spelling, im using my phone and its weird having 2 use proper gramma on a phone!)
I recently changed my HD2 for an Evo....Mix feelings!!!!
I noticed that on my Hd2 I could send,change and even create Word documents..
I can not find a way to do this on my new Evo4G..Any help?????
the hd2 is windows mobile based thus providing users with the mobile version of microsoft office.....the evo is an android device that is still capable of viewing, creating and editing documents......buuuuut u have to purchase the office app from the market.....or i may know a way to get a free version if you can find a way to contact me.....
Documents To Go is a great Office app.

The EVO comes pre-loaded with QuickOffice, which I believe allows you to see/edit word files.
So I have an HD7 from Tmobile and downloaded Mango 7720 last night. Everything seems like its working perfectly but one problem I am having is with IE9 and HTML5 mobile sites. If I navigate to m.bing.com or m.google.com or even mobile youtube I get the old standard mobile sites NOT the html5 mobile versions. Navigating to Bing mobile is especially bad, I cant even see the full menu of bing services. Does anyone else have this issue? I'm just curious to know if anyone else has this issue before I try to reinstall the update.
Anyone? Maybe the sites don't recognize the browser. Not sure what it is but some people claim these sites come up fine on their phones (except for youtube mobile).
Same here. Weird. Maybe they need some time to integrate Mobile IE9 user-agent code?
However 'enhanced' mobile Facebook works well (touch.facebook.com)

Yes, touch facebook works nicely! Hopefully they impliment the user-agent code soon. I guess since Mango is not officially released they havent implemented it yet.
I'm still having this problem with my HTC Titan running Mango 7740. Surely these sites recognise the ie9 useragent now. Though i'm sure that other Mango users aren't still having this issue, i can't work it out!
Don't worry, you're not alone. Google is a major culprit for me. Its almost impossible to get the newer looking mobile site on my phone, instead it looks like the old barebones mobile site. *shudder*
This is not because IE9 does not support HTML5. It is because your website preference is set to mobile or viceversa.
E.g. if you goto google.com with Desktop mode, you will be presented a majorly cut down HTML google version. However, if you visit with Mobile Profile, you will be presented the HTML5 version
Not even the facebook is that good in my opinion, there are some visual artefacts visible.
Same with dropbox.
And it is missing "swiping" functionality. For example, mobile.theverge.com, you have to tap the small dots, instead of just swiping to the next story.
It's not the mobile/desktop setting. I can actually get to the mobile sites (incl. google) but they all look awful. m.facebook.com goes to the oldschool html4 mobile site. touch.facebook.com goes to the html5 mobile site but it's quite broken and not slick. m.google.com has plain text hyperlinks along the top instead of the graphical tabs seen on other mobile OS's.
I guess it's just a trade-off between having a lovely looking OS and Apps, and not having a decent view of mobile web apps.
I have trawled the interwebs extensively as well as this site, but haven't found anyone else experiencing this:
I have the Samsung Focus S and it's a great phone, but IE9 is a little ropey... When I visit any of the Gawker mobile sites, Gizmodo, Lifehacker, Gawker, etc... I cannot see/read ANY of the comments.
Flip back to my HTC Desire Android phone and I am able to see them. Does anyone know what's going on here? I can't be the only one out there to experience this.
It is really annoying because I use those sites quite a lot... any help would be much appreciated.
You could try switching the phone between the mobile and desktop user-agents (it's under Settings -> Internet Explorer). Desktop mode *should* give you the same experience as on a PC, except for Flash of course.
Yeah, that does in fact work fine. I suppose I'm just keen to have the issue resolved for the mobile site so that I don't have to flick around the whole page to see all the content (if that makes sense?)
So thank you, but I guess I'm still looking for an answer :-|
Changing the "mode" has no impact on the browser itself. The server is sending you code that doesn't include the comments when you use the Mobile user-agent string.
Hey GoodDayToDie,
Thanks for this tip, I'll give it a go and report back.
