Is User Agent ID disabled in Opera Mobile 9.5?

Been searching around and have seen the tutorials telling you how to change the user agent settings in Opera through the 'opera:config' menu but no matter what setting I choose I get the same report when I go to http://www.whatsmyuseragent.com
mozilla /4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; WIndows CE; IEMobile 7.11)
How can I get it to report as a desktop or iphone browser?
Thanks

I got it working as Iphone

Hey maybe this is too late but look for User Pref in about:config, there is a Custom User Agent setting where you can enter your favorite one. Rember to scroll all the way to the bottom after entering the UA and press SAVE, then restart Opera.
Iphone UserAgent:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 2_2_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/525.18.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.1.1 Mobile/5H11 Safari/525.20

New mobile Gmail experience on Touch HD

For those who don't know google updated the gmail experience for iphone and Android phones and left us!!!
see http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2009/04/gmail-gets-new-engine-for-iphone-and.html
They are probably working on a version for windows mobile devices. They better be!
But in the mean time, I wanted to get a slice of the action on my touch HD device, and I was thinking of changing the user agent for the browser so that gmail thinks opera mobile is safari.
If found this settings on the forum

But it's not tailored for the touch hd screen.
Can someone with more experience, tell me how we could get this to work best.
Thanks.

Opera seen as IPhone's Safari

Hi colleagues,
I would very much like to have the Safari browsing experience using my HD2 with Opera 9.7 installed.
The question is: is there any way to trick Opera in thinking it's Safari so that the IPhone optimized sites display the content as seen from Safari?
Thank you in advance for your help and I hope I made myself understood with my poor english.

Look up the user agent for the Safari browser and put that in the advanced options part of Opera.

You make it sound easy, I'm not saying it's not, I found Safari IPhone user agent : Mobile Safari 1.1.3 – iPhone but in opera:config under User agent I can only find Spoof User ID with a numeric option. What am I missing ?

no ideas ?

this is a bad idea, iphone versions of webpages often take advantages of features only found on safari fro iphone. since oepra wont support those features you will just see badly format pages with links that your phone wont understand to video content and similar.
but if you really want to do it use opera 10 instead of opera as installed on the hd2 as it supports user agent changing.

Put this under custom user agent:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; es-US) AppleWebKit/531.22.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Safari/531.22.7
If you want a better one,use this one; safarri sucks.

htc one models user agent strings

could those with the 801e (PN0711000), 801n (PN0710000), 801s (PN0714000), and other model ids (PN0712000, PN0713000) please post the android and chrome user agent string for them.
the android one would have a format like this:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android *; *; * Build/*) AppleWebKit/534.30 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/534.30
the chrome one:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android *; * Build/*) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/* Mobile Safari/537.36

can somebody post at least for one of the models out there?

[Q] What useragent are you showing, why is mine wrong?

Hi,
I have only just come across useragents so I have looked at mine on two sites, whatsmyuseragent.com and useragentstring.com. Both sites have identified my unrooted, sim free, stock browser on Note 3 as:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebkit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.94 Safari/537.36
According to this my Note 3 is not identifying itself as a Linux device and not a Android device. On checking http://www.webapps-online.com/online-tools/user-agent-strings/dv/brand125499/samsung-galaxy-note-iii, all of their examples are showing the Note 3 identifying itself properly such as:
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 4.4.2; it-it; SAMSUNG SM-N9005 Build/KOT49H) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/1.5 Chrome/28.0.1500.94 Mobile Safari/537.36.
Anyone know what is wrong with my Note 3?
Is yours the same?
Mine is a UK model, could this be the reason?
Thanks

Hi,
Just been googling and found the answer in a nexus thread.
Your'e not getting android in the UA because you're using Desktop View. There's seemingly no way to identify that this is a mobile device in that mode. Once you'll switch to normal view you'll see the right UA.
I just switched back to mobile view and my Note 3 identified itselft as a Note 3.
This leads to another question. Up until now I have had unlimited tethering on the One Plan. Now that Three are capping us, if I use desktop view on my phone so identifying my Note 3 as a linux machine will this data come out of my Tethered allowance rather than the inclusive unlimited phone data?
Thanks

It shows Linux, Android is based on Linux.
