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.

Do we have one already? If not I've created xda-developers on Palringo so we can get together and discuss all things HTC.
http://www.palringo.com/
Once you're in with your client of choice go to "Groups" and "Join a Group" then type in "xda-developers" to join and start chatting.
If you're on your mobile and don't have a good data tarif you might want to use wifi; photo-spam will ensue!
Damn I'm addicted to this app!
Palringo is a great app.
I'm there too and I'm inviting anyone to signup!
Wow, not a very good turnout!
Come on guys, pretty much everyone here has a device capable of running Palringo!

I installed Palringo but it will NOT uninstall properly, and now i receive an error each time I boot up my Hermes
I've never had the inclination to uninstall it, but that's a bit irritating.
I imagine the error is Palringo attempting to run at startup? In which case you can manually go into the start up items folder of your device and remove the shortcut.
The folder path is \Windows\StartUp
not been in here for ages, but hanging in the palringo groups is pretty good, what did I do before Palringo ?
dont use it but will check it out if its got anything to do wit my ppc.
cheers

PTT just seems to send a WAV. Can it not do proper PTT even Palringo to Palringo?
Palringo is the second most-used app on my phone (Opera Mini is #1). The recent update that adds the "chat" menu is a huge improvement, since I can actually have multiple IM windows open now. I don't like the fact that my connections are proxied through palringo servers, but it's still the best free IM app I've found.
BTW, even the JavaME version works on the Kaiser in JBED. Don't know why anyone with a Kaiser would want to use it, but it's still cool. I used the Samsung version.
I just joined the group, so I might bug some of you just to try out the PTT and other features I've never used before.
well used app. just how can we get it to work without explorer first
I'd like to know if is possible to change the picture of exibition in MSN
How can I do it?
palringo wont stay open
ive been using palringo for a while now and i like it but recently its been acting odd. when i flash a new rom and i open palringo its all good. after it updates the software, palringo wont stay open. i open it and as fast as it opens, it closes.
anyone else?
is this really the main room? or is there a bigger one?
palringo is the best multi server IM App??? what do you guys think?
Or if there is a betther one please let me know, ok?
This one goes to all the windows phone newcomers who are looking for a way to use facebook chat on their new HTC LEO / HD2, which lacks from both native winmo facebook app, and HTC Sense facebook integration.
The software name is FIM (Facebook Instant Messenger) and beside the fb chat it integrates many of the core facebook features like status feed, notifications, photo post, and pretty much everything else via Facebook's mobile site.
Most important is that the software is finger friendly and I'm using it myself on HD2, so later I will post a video of the software on HD2 for those who still consider buying this awesome device.
You can find the rest of the details here
You can also download it directly on your device by navigating to http://get.mosko.mobi
will give it a go
Good job

excellent app, congrats
fantastic app! best facebook app ive used on the HD2 yet! thank you!!!
does not work on 3G -1
How much is this likely to kill the battery if it was left running in the background?
I'm fairly sure it was Palringo that gave me my battery issues when I first got the HD2.
While we're talking about Facebook app on HD2, how come i can't see my thumbs of my uploaded pictures? Is this a setting somewhere or just a bug?
Thank you very much, been looking for exactly this.......
I am trying to dl this, but it looks like the website is down?
same here, seems broken? anyone got the cab?
great ap though it does drain the battery got a percentage icon running and you can see it counting down
Site seems to be working again!
Hi, excellent app! love it. BUT......
...95% of the time when I open fim and try to sign in it fails to connect and pops up with the message "Failed using the internet connection. Try to restart your data connection". This is on my HD2 which I've only had for a few days and it's also my first winmo so I'm a complete noob. It doesnt matter how many times I turn on/off wifi it makes no difference and I get the same error both on my wifi at home and at work so I'm a bit baffled - especially as it does occasionally work first try.
If anyone can point me in the direction of where I'm going wrong I will be eternally grateful lol.
Cheers,
Matt
Thanks a lot for this, it's a damn shame the official Facebook app totally sucks compared to the iPhone version which allows for so much more. It's small things like this that make the whole device user experience suck. It's not HTC's fault.

Hi all, +1 for the same problem. but i'm not a complete noob and not in wifi.
edit: I may have found the solution "Incorrect Email/Password Combination": but you are positively sure you entered everything correctly? well, if you have special characters in your email or password replace them. only numbers, English letters and of course @ at the email allowed, also keep in mind that facebook passwords are case sensitive."

Thanks man. Work on my HTC S710 VOX !!
You can download it from http://get.mosko.mobi/
so i have no idea why but on elegancia rom i cannot get FIM to connect ever over wifi or data and my login is always correct.
i tried palringo and it let me sign in once but then always gets a not authorized error.
so right now i cant use facebook chat on my phone and it sucks.
any other apps or maybe a fix?
Did you try Palringo?
re-read my post
Most of the really nice ones cost money...Like Agile Messenger and IM+...
You can try Nimbuzz...worked better for me than Palringo and its freeware...
Go here:
http://www.nimbuzz.com/en
nimbuzz seems to be working at least over wifi for now. thanks alot
although it only seems to load 400 friends total so i cant see all that are online. hmm

That is odd....I cant really help because I havent used it in a long time...
Sorry I couldnt help more, glad at least ya got something running.
Cheers!
blahh. it only appears to work on wifi.
facebook keeps giving me messages about someone in the uk trying to sign in so apparently palringo and nimbuzz use a server overseas and facebook freaks out and blocks it?
try this.....
what makes that one different? it just worked over wifi for me.
and worked over edge, weird thing is i had to change internet networks. t mobile internet didnt work, my isp didnt work. but finally t mobile data did.
thanks alot!
if you go to m.aol.com and download AIM it has facebook built into it

Hi!
I can't see an app for Windows Mobile, when choosing device HTC it just shows alot of Android devices
Palringo straight up sucks. as of right now it has been "Logging in" for 3 hours, tried rebooting phone, checked connection etc etc.. Of course there is no visual cue that you have a message,(blinking LED) or when you are disconnected.
it sucks, i hate it, want something, anything else.
tried to get ebuddy, cant, says its not authorized or something to that effect..
is there ANY program out there (other than junkringo) that works on this phone? without having to do any mods BS to get it to work?
I take it you're not looking for MSN then?
something that DOES NOT use sms to send and recieve yahoo chat messages.
How about this. Not the most obvious thing in the world I suppose, but I thought of it...

Wow, thanks for the smartass answer an all..
but have you even tried to install it on an HD2?
hmm?
does your say " 'ymsgr-ppc' is not a valid pocket PC application"
maybe i should google it.
mmm... yea, well it says its for winmo5.. so I googled the HD2 and found it with google, it uses winmo6.5 and then googled again and could not find where it said that app supports winmo6.5.... but I did find where it said it does not support 6.1 but maybe it skipped 6.1 because it wasnt cool, or didnt use google enough... hmm
maybe i should google some more.
too bad i cant get it to work too, what with a rockin rating of 2/10 i think you managed to google up the one chat app that might suck worse than palringo..
At least I tried, which is more than you could be bothered doing.
Couple of options
BeeJive for WM 6.5 works, but is no longer being supported. It's in permanent beta and every once in a while their servers go down for a few days.
You can get the ebuddy java app to work. You need to install Mighty's Photon jBlend java app on your HD2, then you can get java apps to install fine. I don't have a link handy but you can find it on XDA.
Try BeeJive first, if it's working, it's really good.
Okay so I've been looking ALL over this site and have found noting and I am brand new so I'm sorry if I'm posting in the wrong section but I can't figure this out. I just upgraded to Windows 8 and I installed chrome to phone and when I try to send a page it tells me to sign in (when I am already signed in) and I click to sign in and it takes me to a blank white page that says redirecting and just stays there. It's driving me crazy because I can't get it to work. Now I don't know if it is something with Google or with the fact I'm running windows 8 but I guess I'm wondering if this is happening to anyone else or if someone can help me figure this out I'd REALLY appreciate it. Thank you!
Maybe it doesn't work on Win8? Try it on Win7 just to make sure it's not an OS problem... which I doubt.
Just to clear things out... you do have the Android counterpart installed on your phone, correct?
i always thought than internal browser is google chrome)
opera mini is good
opera mobile is better =)
Used this before on my rooted Eris and used had to used google chrome.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
I love firefox all the way

The stock Android browser is not the same thing as Chrome. 2 different departments at Google. You'd think they would be the same, but they're not.
