Bad gateway with Opera 10

Ever since using Opera 10 whenever I load a site for the first time I get the message "502 bad gateway"
If I then refresh the page then it loads fine
Anyone else with this problem or any solutions?

Does this happen when you attempt to load a particular website?
Has this problem occured only today, or does it happen all the time?
A 502 Bad Gateway error is usually a network error between servers on the Internet, meaning that its possible that this problem is not with your HD or Internet connection.

This problem started ever since installing Opera 10 weeks ago. It is the same for all sites I go on (even the google search bar) - but again only for the first load, refreshing always loads the page correctly. Then all the following sites on that tab work ok, however if I then open a new tab the problem occurs again on the new tab until page refreshed

I'm not sure if this will resolve your problem, but you can try the following:
1. Open Opera browser.
2. Go to Settings.
3. Select the Advanced option and make sure the Set Opera as default browser checkbox is selected.

There is no option of setting opera as default in settings or advanced settings

I just realised that, i'm using 9.7
Try the following using a Registry Editor:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\: DEFBROWSER
"0"=Opera Browser
"1"="\Program Files\Opera Mobile 10\Opera10-armv4i.exe"
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\http\Shell\Open\Command\Default
"\Program Files\Opera Mobile 10\Opera10-armv4i.exe" %1

Shame... have you tried re-installing the Opera application to see if that makes any difference? does IE react the same when you launch its browser?

Well this happened each time I installed Opera 10 after flashing new ROMS's on several occasions (Energy Leo and XannyTech Evo).
Have tried internet explorer and that works fine

I get this same error, but if I turn off 'Opera Turbo' the error disappears. Strangely Opera Mini (which I thought used the same page compression techniques) does not have this problem - and is so much faster at loading pages too.
Turning off Opera Turbo is my solution!

Hi. I have the exact same problem, did anyone find a solution?
Turning Opera Turbo on or off doesn't make any difference for me.

[WM6.5 HTC SENSE 2.5] Bookmarks not updating the icon?

When I add a bookmark to the quicklink in Sense 2.5 the icon just stays blank, I know it should show some of the page itself but it doesn't. What should I do?

i just tried figuring this out today, the way i did it was to have the bookmarks already saved then go to the sense page and hit add quicklink then pick it and then hit it. i had opera closed so each time it had to open then load the page and it seemed to save the image.
otherwise it didnt work
gl!

That didn't work. I also forget to tell you I'm using Opera 10 as default browser.

Thats probably why. Then again, I haven't gotten the HD2 yet .

ah ok im using 9.5 stock or whatever comes on tmo usa rom so i prob cant help sorry :/

I have same problem using opera 10. Anybody with any ideas to solving this problem?

opera 9.7 defaulting to facebook mobile!?

Woke up this morning and facebook is now automatically directing me to the mobile site using opera 9.7, never happened before today and Id much prefer the real site!
anyone else experiencing this or is it just my device??

I have the same problem. Boring.

Opera is doing the same thing with the BBC website as well and I have to scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the link to the desktop version. Very annoying.

yep same thing happening to me in the last couple of days.
build 35964

same in opera 10... looks like they found a way to detect the phone
they could at least have made it the touch site...

yeah noticed this yesterday, slight annoying as i prefer the desktop version.

i have the same problem :S

You can press the "To access the main site, click here" link at the top and bookmark it, or for the touch site click the link at the bottom

or change your user agent so that opera reports itself as a desktop browser.

i had the same problem,i just bookmarked the news feed page with my it set to remember login details.problem solved

this worked for me on the bbc site, go to opera:config and then user prefs and untick the box for UAProf Enabled. Save and reload the site to see if that works.

I agree...did the same thing you did and then made the quick link on my today page..works like a charm every time!

Web Pages Show In Mobile View

All my webpages are showing in mobile view. I have looked all through the settings and cannot find the option to make everything show up like I am on a PC.
Does anyone know if this can be done, I have been able to do this on my previous HTC phones. I have loaded Dolphin Browser HD and Xscope but they still both also show some pages in mobile view.
Thanks.

I have the same problem
I've tried every thing to and it won't disable mobile views anyone have ideas

After playing with different settings in multiple browsers, if you download xscope browser and tell it your an ipad it makes everything show up correctly. I tried desktop view in that browser but some things still came up as mobile view.

Egads, this is my #1 annoyance. although this is a Google thing and not Samsung, per se. HTC Sense however has an option in the browser settings to disable mobile view pages from coming up (doesn't disable WAP capability though so you can still open a wap page manually).
i tried the manual method where you enter that debug command in the address bar and then go into the settings where you can change it from mobile to desktop (and iphone lol) views and other phones the 'desktop' view takes care of it, but i tried it on the Vibrant and then it renders the browser unusable until you reset the browser.
I came to this site to post about this but someone beat me to it. I hope there is a solution out there. I also think its really stupid that these websites think they need to show android phones their mobile views.

Maybe someone can push one of the other ROM's browser .apk to this phone. The browser on the rom I'm using has an option in the settings to change your User Agent.

Hey guys/gals, try something out for me (I don't have a V so I can't)
Open up your stock browser.
Type “about:debug” in the address line and press enter. (No quotations)
Hit “menu” and then select “Settings.”
You should now see all kind's of debugging settings including "UA String"
Click that and select "Desktop"
Let us know if it worked
Thanks!

Doesn't do anything.

AFter typing about:debug in the browser address window you have to press menu, then settings and then go down to the bottom and look for UAstring. That is how it works on the Nexus. I don't have a Vibrant yet either but it is on the way.

May be Sammy did something to the Browser app... can we get few more confirmations that it in fact does not work?
Other solution could be to rip out Browser.apk out of CM 2.1 rom and try installing or ADB pushing it to the system.

Already confirmed here.

One just can't trust Samsung... I tell ya
Here's stock Eclair Browser.apk for the brave ones ( I take no responsibility for whatever happens)

So I did this and got it to work. Clicked UA string and selected desktop. Now my browser force closes repeatedly and I can not get it open. Please tell me how to undo what I did.
Thanks

How do you reset the browser? Ugh

After changing my UAString to Desktop, Browser did nothing but FC on start, I had to push a default version of Browser back to the phone and reset the settings.

Hate to be a Noob here, but how exactly did you push the default stock browser for the fix.
Thanks

Since I'm not using ADB, I used terminal to copy the Browser.apk from the Vibrant dump.
install busybox
cp /sdcard/Browser.apk /system/app/Browser.apk
reboot

OK. I am not rooted. Is there a non rooted way to reset a FC browser?

You could do a Factory reset.

Haha. Don't really want to do that. Maybe it is time to root.

I suppose. Idk, coming from the Mytouch, I'm used to wiping and formating and reinstalling and wiping and resetting things so many times testing the new roms that I'm used to it. May wanna try Titanium Backup first, I suppose.

Only showing moble sites

Hey guys I just first want to apologize if there are a string of these somewhere, I cant find a pair of shades on my head... anyway I flashed to Dexters Iconia p2-2 the other day and noticed that no matter what I do I cannot stop websites from going into the moble sites. I have reflashed the rom twice as well as used Thor's new V1 Kernel with no luck. I tried stock (Aboutebug) I tried dolphin and skyfire and set their settings to desk top with no effect. It worked fine on stock 3.01. Could someone please help me figure this out?

Humm
Weird... I'm using Dolphin on Dexter P2 and desktop site works fine..

with the stock browser open go to browser settings then select the advance tab. Then look for "viewing Mode" and change it from android to desktop then you should be good to go. I believe you also have to type WWW. for each website address you want to visit, for it to go to the desktop version of the site.
You dont have to do the whole about debug thing anymore as it is in the settings menu. It's just called viewing mode now.

dolphyn browser
Use dolphyn browser with add on for switch from mobile to desktop mode. I use this and it s great.

Some custom roms don't have that setting. I'm assuming that's his issue.

Yeah, I am thinking this is my issue. As posted before I know how to set up the options to display in desktop mode, its just not doing it.

I did the following to get the desktop version of Facebook to show instead of Mobile. All it does it changes the UA (User-Agent) string used by the browser.
In the browser address bar, type about:debug then press enter. Nothing will appear to happen.
Open the context menu and head into the browser settings. A few new options will appear, including a Debug tab below Labs.
In this tab is a an option UAString. Click this, and change it to Desktop.
Head back into the browse and it should load the desktop version of websites like Facebook, over the mobile edition.
