Hi,
Need some help please? I have reset my Opera 9.5 back to default using about:config - install after un-installing anther application to set the browser as the default again. The problem now is that when going to certain pages it shows the mobile view rather than the normal web view the main one being BBC showing as bbc mobile. Even if I type in the BBC address it automatically goes to the mobile view. I have checked in the settings and the mobile view is unchecked
Any ideas please?
Thanks in advance
Does anyone know if there is a setting for Opera 9.5 to force web pages to load or browse as a desktop display? Internet Explorer has a setting that allows you to browse as either a desktop or mobile device.
On Opera, even with "Display - Mobile view" unchecked, some sites, notably CNN and FOX news, automatically redirect to their mobile website. Is there another setting I'm missing or is my Opera not functioning correctly.?
***Figured it out: A speed tweaking cab I installed had a default string in the Custom User Agent that allowed these sites to detect it as a mobile device and redirect. Could not change the string (would automatically default) so I'll probably have to remove the cab.
I need to kno if there's a way too. this has been annoying la mierda out of me
Does somebody know how to get opera to display desktop version of websites all the time in stead of mobile view ?
I tried opera:config User Prefs at Custum User-Agent the folowing string :Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090824 Firefox/3.5.3
it didn't help, the I tried pocket internet explorer string in opera, that didn't help also but with pocket internet explorer i do get desktop view.

Hi,
My carrier has customised home pages dependent on the handset model.
Since im using the HD2 which is not issued by my carrier, i plan to use the Samsung i8000 user agent string so that i get similar resolution and dont have to zoom in every time i load a page.
Does any one know where i can change the user agent string in Pocket Internet Explorer in the HD2?
I cant use Opera because i cant access '3' sites using their APN as Opera uses its own servers to minimise data.
Thanks in advance.
I think there's an option in Opera Mobile to turn off "opera turbo", so then it doesn't use the opera proxy server and you'll get a direct connection, etc.
Otherwise, use a registry editor and look under HKLM/Software/Microsoft and HKCU/Software/Microsoft- there's likely to be a setting in there for Internet Explorer and something related to user agent, etc. Probably worth writing down what it is before you change it though!
I am using MSN as my homepage, but opera would not allow that. It always take me to MSN Mobile instead of the normal MSN page. Anyone know how to prevent this for happening?
Thank,
Strange... I just set my homepage to "http://www . msn . com" and it does not take me to the mobile site when I start up Opera. Settings --> Start page --> User defined... What version of Opera are you using? I tried this with 9.7.
Opera 9.7 takes you to MSN.com, but Opera 10 beta goes to MSN mobile.
This is my experience with Opera.
I uninstalled Opera 10 and went back to 9.7

Yes, I have Opera version 9.7, but it still go to MSN Mobile instead of MSN site.
See if your opera settings are mobile or desk top, that makes a big diffrence

There is no setting for that in version 9.7 or any other version of Opera mobile, or is there? If there was, how are you able to change it?
set a custom user agent. msn is reading the opera user agent and (correctly) figuring its a mobile.
look up setting a custom useragent and set it to something like firefoxes user agent. (There are websites that list user agents)
Make sure you set the homepage when its on the desktop version and not the mobile version. Go to the website and access the desktop version then set the home page.
