How do I clear cookies on my Vario II? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

I need to clear my cookies because I can't log into a particular website due to a cookie problem.
Can anyone tell me how to do this on my Vario II?

Hi.
In PIE go to Menu>Tools>options>security
Mike

Cheers. I tried that and it cleared my cookies (well, I presume that it did since I had to re-enter my log-in details at the problem website) but it didn't solve my problem.
FWIW my problem site is Facebook - or the mobile Facebook site m.facebook.com. When I try to log-in it just loops the log-in screen. Don't suppose anyone else has had this problem?

Yes - I went through the process and found the same issue. I think their mobile site is perhaps for WAP browsers though I could be wrong.
I successfully managed however ,to log on using PIE and the full site i.e. http//facebook.com and it works fine.
If you really want the mobile version - that I guess is laid out without so many graphics etc I suppose you need to contact them. If it's because it's a wap site then you can download a wap browser. (say Winwap: http://www.winwap.com/products_2_2.php)
According to Facebook:
Boost, Cingular, Nextel, Sprint, and Virgin currently support Facebook Mobile Web. If you have another carrier and a phone with an internet browser, it should still work, we just can't make any guarantees. If you are having trouble, please tell us your carrier, the make and model of your phone, and describe the problem that you are experiencing here.

Mike - When I started my phone this morning (I switch it off every night), I could access m.facebook.com today. Worked perfectly. So clearing your cookies might work for you too.
The mobile Facebook site is really excellent on a Vario.

WAP and Yahoo!

On a PC, you can go to http://wap.oa.yahoo.com, and login to your yahoo account to read your emails, etc.
If I do the same from my XDA2, it says "Unable to connect: Ensure that your modems are present and inserted correctly, and no network card present".
If I try this with any other web site (e.g. http://www.bbc.co.uk) it connects and works fine.
Does anyone else get this, and does anyone know a way around it?
Thanks!
On my XDA, http://wap.oa.yahoo.com works fine.
But WAP stinks on a capable device like the XDA or XDAII. Why not use http://www.yahoo.com instead, or set up your Inbox to download your Yahoo headers and/or messages?
can i realy do that?? setup INBOX for yahoooo???
please show me how! i couldnt even set the outlook express on PC to do that!
thanks a million.

You can only do this if you pay extra for POP3 access to Yahoo emails - which I don't want to do as this isn't my primary email account.
Also, going through http://www.yahoo.com means you get all the ads, graphics, etc. Even over a GPRS line, this makes it quite painfull.

I just got a new XDA II and I could access Yahoo without problems. After an involutary hard reset all the O2 stuff got installed (seems it was not installed the first time I used the device), and now I'm having the same problem as you're describing. Has O2 added something "clever" so that if it sees "wap" in the path, it thinks it should use a wap connection? In any case I can't find these settings and delete it. I want it to work as it did before the hard reset! Help!
Try wsp://wap.oa.yahoo.com insted of http://wap.oa.yahoo.com
HTTP = PC
WSP = WAP
8)
cheers
WSP doesn't work either. Probably because that signals even more to the computer that you're trying to establish a WAP connection, which I don't want to do and which isn't set up either. The funny thing is that it worked before the hard reset, and I never had any problems on my old XDA I.
I managed to remove all the O2 stuff from the extended ROM, and after a hard reset, I can now access http://mobile.yahoo.com/mail again! Once you access http://mobile.yahoo.com/mail, the path changes to http://wap.oa... and from this point on it complained. Until I removed the O2 stuff. So now I'm happy it works, but I'd still like to know what settings O2 infiltrated to stop it from working. Does anyone have a clue?

I think it have something to do with Connection settings and or Registery settings for Browser ID string (User ID String)
example:
Of youre browser ID is "Mozilla/4.0(compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows CE; PPC; 240x320)" Than you w'll get a diffrent page if you have something else.
After I changed my Browser ID (to see more free stuff from orange GRPS/Orange World) I cant get the colored page of Yahoo Too.
Can you post here youre Browser ID please?
To see youre browser ID string, Visit http://www.showip.com on youre PPC, and let me know please.
Cheers
I just bought an XDA2i and am having the same problem with the mobile Yahoo site. Since nobody has managed to unlock the extended ROM in XDA2i yet , I cannot remove the O2 stuff that is causing the problem (forcing a different connection for web adresses starting with "wap"). On my XDA2 i could unlock the extended ROM and remove the O2 bits, and this solved the problem. With XDA2i I'm stuck...

Internet Explorer on Orange

I'm an avid facebook.com user and often liked to hook up to m.facebook.com using my old Magician. Now I have a Trinity, have set up the wireless correctly etc, but it won't accept my login details. It just returns to the login screen with my details still sat there. I've tried other sites, that don't require logging in and the connection is set up fine. While I accept there could just be a problem with facebook mobile, I don't use any other sites where I have to login with specific details, so can't test this possibility....
Has anyone else experienced any difficulties with ie on this phone?
Opera
Have since installed Opera Mini and it logs in fine... So can only assume internet explorer has an issue with sending data..?
Now to get msn on this thing... Still kinda missing the Magician, but for the wireless LAN...

By any chance have you disabled cookies? That's a very common cause of login problems. I use several sites that require login and they work fine.
Cookies
No, cookies enabled. Tried clearing them too, but still just loads up the same page each time...
Must have been a site issue, as it's all now working fine...

Pocket Internet Explorer problem accessing mobile site

Hi guys,
I have a strange problem accessing a Softbank mobile site:
http://x-series.softbankmobile.co.jp/
This site is to download the Softbank mail application (S!Mail, MMS, the crappy thing)... the first time I accessed the site and downloaded the application. But now I want to download it again but instead of sending me to the site, it redirects me to the normal PC site (with Flash, pictures and everything):
http://mb.softbank.jp/mb/
I though it was the PIEPlus or the Spb Pocket Plus, but I uninstalled both, and the problem continues...
Thnkx
PD. X01HT with SIM and SuperCID.
PD. If somebody can upload the Softbank Mail CAB, I will appreciate it..!!!

Try deleting your PIE cookies and cache. It might be that the web site only allows one connection to that particular URL???
John
Thankx johnburn, but I already tried that... I have no idea...
The first time it was OK, from the http://x-series.softbankmobile.co.jp/ I went to https://x-series.softbankmobile.co.jp/scripts/japanese/xseries/index.jsp but now, it doesn't matter how I try, it sends me to http://mb.softbank.jp/mb/, the normal PC site (250KB in that page !!!)...
I had the same problem after changing ROMs, I think it may be looking for a certificate or cookie that gets installed with the EXT_ROM. When I flash back it works again.
I see...that sounds reasonable... so what to do? I don't want to flash it again... Is there any other alternative?

HTC Account Manager - does it work for anyone?

At present the HTC Account Manager (settings/connections) allows you to input account details for You Tube (there is a Facebook setting, but it is hidden) However I cannot get my youtube login details to work - and yes I am typing the correct username/password.
All I recieve is the following error
"There was a connection error while attempting to login".
Is anyone else experiencing this?
are you connected to the internet?

no not the facebook one (this has been disabled by HTC), I mean the you tube one - it just wont log on. Has anyone done it sucessfully?
Yes... I was talking about youtube account... I've got the same problem.
I said only... that I've got the problem, also, that I don't see Facebook account.
Works like a charm for me.
Maybe it conflicts with your proxy settings...?

hmm.. strange.
I have original HTC version running on T Mobile UK network.
Anyone else having problems/success?
just got my hd and checked this with o2 sim and it works fine. is it possible to show the facebook account? that would be useful.
think I have figured the problem - you may need to confirm your email address again. log into youtube.com and click on UPLOAD VIDEO - enter a email address, open email, follow link - presto!
