I have installed Opera mobile on my qtek 9000 but when I receive mail and I want to open a link to an internet connection it doesn't open the page and send me an error message. How can I resolve? Thanks
You can't get rid of that error, you can only get around it: select and copy the link, open opera, and paste the link to the adress window.
Or set PIE to be your predefined net browser...
My imate JASJAR had the same problem, but it can be solved. I had installed Opera 8.60 on the Storage card and I had to modify either opera.ini or some links in registry to point to the correct location of Opera. Also I checked that Opera was standard browser (.htm points to Opera at the right location). Check:
\\\registry\HKCR\.htm\_htmlfile_Opera
\\\registry\HKCR\http\Shell\Open\Command\default
\\\registry\HKCR\http\\DefaultIcon\Default
\\\registry\HKCR\http\Shell\Open\Command\default and the same for https
I used Total Commander + plugin to edit registry.

Great !!!!!! Thanks from Italy
When I started using Opera, I've spent HOURS looking for something like this, even asking Opera Support!
Eventually, I've gave up, and used the work around I' posted earlier.
Many thanks!

It is great for me. I think by that when I closed the agenda and open again, opera was fried.

Since installing Opera 8.5 Beta any links I recieve in emails can't be "clicked through" to either Pocket IE OR Opera 8.5 B
Anyone know whereabouts in the registry I should be looking?
Hmmn...I have the same problem with hyperlinks anywhere not just email.
Having installed so much stuff I couldn't nail it to anything...are you sure this was Opera?
I'm wondering whether getting rid of it will rectify this..have you tried that since you have had no replies...??
I can't believe we are the only 2 that are experiencing this..
As far as I know, it's go to do with the associations with HTTP, HTM and HTML files.
Check the beta feedback forum on my.opera.com for the fix.

Thanks you were right...tho' I didn't manage to find a reference to the problem on Opera site.
I installed Opera 85B on the SD card, and either because the prog is dumb, or I didn't read the install instructions properly (or both), all the associations (http, https, htm, html etc) in the registry thought that Opera was installed on the device not the card.
Once this was sorted all my links work fine.
cheers
Browser - Opera 8.5 beta
Device - Qtek 9000
Connection - GPRS T-mobile
Location - USA
For some reason, when using GPRS, going to hotmail, it takes me to msnmobile instead of the regular hotmail webpage despite using Opera.
Not only that, it doesn't take me to the mobile hotmail page, even after I log on.
Anybody knows a solution around it?
Tried searching for hotmail but nothing came up that provided me with the solution.
Actually Opera does not offer a user-configurable User-Agent to enable identification of Opera as IE6 so you are forced to mobile websites.
A work around which I did is as follows:-
1) Open your usual hotmail site on your windows xp computer.
2) When the site has fully opened the address bar on your windows xp web browser will look something like this (http://by20fd.bay20.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/hmhome? *******)
3) Copy and paste this entire address to a word document on your windows xp computer and save the word document.
4) Using active sync transfer this word document from your windows xp computer to your pocket pc and open with Word Mobile
5) Run Opera on your PPC and copy and paste the address from your word mobile document to the address bar in the opera window.
6) Press the go button and the website will display.
7 Now you can save the open website as one of your Favourites and this way you will not have to follow the entire procedure each time you want to go to the hotmail site.
It works for me and hope it does for you sas well.
Kind Regards
nope, still automatically redirects to mobile.msn.com
Really frustrating! :evil:
Okay go to the mobile MSN account as opera would take you. Then enter your username and password and log in. Also click the radio button for opera to remember both the username and password i.e. the uppermost radio button. Exit opera then retry the procedure in my above post.

try adding a new section to the opera.ini file in \Application Data\Opera :
[User Agent]
Spoof UserAgent ID=1
Full options are:
Opera = 1
Mozilla = 2
Internet Explorer = 3
Mozilla, no Opera mention = 4
Internet Explorer, no Opera mention = 5
Let me know

Thanks for the info
YES! It works. Changing the User Agent file does allow it to go to the regular hotmail webpage. Don't forget to soft reset.
FYI, I'm using the Opera 8.5 beta on my Qtek 9000.
Google.com still doesn't work on GPRS though. Works great when connected to PC via Activesync....just not through GPRS.
One other thing I need to mention also, after adding the User Agent to the ini file, the top bar where the address and all the icons are, have a background issue. The icons and the address bar all show up fine, but just the background is a little messed up. Nothing you can't live with.
Thanks again Aefelix.

Thx, will try that now...
I noticed something though, i normally use WAP over GPRS to browse, i tried it and it didn't work (copy hotmail link and paste it).
But then when i was hooked up via WIFI, it worked on PIE without changing any setting!
How could that be? :shock: :?
Jamps...
I've also noticed that when I use Wi-Fi, hotmail works just fine.
But please do try AeFelix's fix and see if it works for you too.
Hi Aefelix,
Tried modifying the Opera.ini by adding the User Agent section as advised.
Now it takes me to the regular hotmail login page and allows log in as well. But after log in none of the links such as Mail, Calendar, etc appear to work. So I cannot actually go beyond the page which appears after the log in is through.
Anybody else experienced this and any suggestions??
Kind Regards

maybe it use java or something pocket internet explore really is not much of a browser anyway

Try to install "Opera Mini" broswer which is free and check if your problem is related to IE browser.

Great. So the issue was missing Java functionality in pIE.
Hi
I've tried every setting imaginable on my Tytn running WM 6.1 Internet Explorer. I'm trying to login to my mobile banking site but everytime I get to the login screen and select the login link, the browser just gives me an option to save the link (Login.do) instead of routing me to the link.
The the browser does nothing further - it remains at the last page.
I've tried the same on desktop PC and the link works fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
It seems my browser (PIE) was the problem - Microsoft should really include something better with WM.
I upgraded to Opera. Sorted now.
The problem is I tried to save opera:config as a favourite.
When I go to the favourite it keeps adding http:// in front of the shortcut stopping the link from working. Even if I edit the shortcut it still adds http:// to the front after saving.
Does anyone know how to get this sorted?
Running default opera 9.7 Build 35627 shipped with 1.66 ROM.
You can't. It is opera itself thinking you have been lazy and not bothered putting http:// at teh start of teh address. If you did manage to tweak opera not to do that, it would never do it for any address and you would have to manually add http:// every time you entered an address.
Well that wouldn't bother me as I always go to the site then click add favourite.
Also a mate has the HD2 and the diamond and his diamond let's him save opera:config as a favourite.
If someone could tell me how to stop the http:// appearing that would be great.
The problem is that Opera 9.7 on the HD2 is using the HTC Sense Bookmark service by default, and it seems to add http:// every time you save. Whereas on your friend's Diamond it would be using the in built Opera 9.7 Bookmark service which doesn't add on the http://.
You can switch it back to use the in built Opera 9.7 bookmark service by doing the following:
Download a Registry editor like Total Commander or Resco Explorer. Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Info\UseOperaBookmark and change the value from "0" to "1".
This then enables the Opera 9.7 bookmark service and you can add opera:config as a favourite without it adding http:// to it.
the above answer will work, and has the added benefit of allowing you to use folders that aren't opened when you browse favorites like they are in the sense favorites....but don't forget that active sync will no longer sync operas bookmarks because they are saved to a different location. just best it in mind if you hard reset.
