I installed Opera 10 beta 2, and had some font problems.
So, I'd uninstall it - since then, the default browser changed to IE instead Opera 9.7.
How can I change the default browser to Opera again?
start opera, type in the address bar: opera:config (without http or www). There you'll find an option to make opera your default browser again (scroll down the list and somewhere you will find this option).
I'd tried that but I can't change from Opera config the default internet web browser.
I want to slide to the Internet tab and then tap Launch Browser and open Opera. Now when i do this ( slide to the Internet tab and then tap Launch Browser) IE is open instead of Opera.
How can I change it back - tap Launch Browser and open Opera? ???

When you have WinMo 6.5, do the following:
start - scroll down untill you find the icon which says Opera Browser - click it and it will open Opera, then perform as stated in my first answer. After you have done that you should be able to go to internettab and tap browser and Opera will be launched.
I did exactly your instruction :
opera:config
User Prefs
Default Browser First run - Mark v
save
exit
It doesn't work. Tap Launch - get IE ...
Another way:
Opera
Setting
Advanced
Set Opera default browser - mark v
exit
And again, Tap Launch - get IE ...
So, I think something is worng because Uninstalling Opera 10 Beta 2.
Some registery things can help to change it (realy) back? ???
did you perform a soft reset after the changes? If not, give it a try, normally this solution should work.
hi
You just need to check in opera option that It's the default browser.
after when You launch internet, You will have opera instead of IE
i try and it works

I had the exact same problem. I fixed it by going into Opera then unticking the default box saving then exiting Opera and opening it back up and ticking the box again.

go to opera.

Same problem here, PIE now default after trying to install skyfire (before finding out theat it was not compatible )
Have used the search option in Opera:config and searched for favourite and browser etc etc and cannot find any options to set Opera back to default.
Anyone else have any suggestions?

reinstating Opera Mobile as a default browser
Tested and works as a charm
COPYASTE from http://discuss.pocketnow.com/showthread.php?t=25285
"You can actually reinstate Opera Mobile as the default browser (PIE would have been made the default browser if you had installed another browser such as Skyfire or Iris, and uninstalled them subsequently).
Launch Opera Mobile manually via Start Menu > Programs. In the address bar, enter "opera:config" and go to the page. The "Preferences Editor" page will be shown. Scroll down until you see "Install". Tap on it to expand the section. Enable the tickbox for "Browser First Time Launch", then tap "Save".
You have now reinstated Opera Mobile as the default browser.

Joon Suan"
Ahhh Now I understand!!! Use Opera Always=Default
I've have been frustrated that Opera only appeared when I used the TF3d Browser interface but if I clicked on a link in email it would launch PIE (worthless in current interation -IMHO)... now using this tip when I click on a link in email it uses Opera -- Life is now good and I can die a happy man!
For some reason whenever I launch Opera from TF3D it defaults to the htc homepage. Launching Opera from the programs menu works fine.
How can I change the parameters TF3D passes on to Opera to make it default to the regular Opera default page?
Anyone? I would really like to change the homepage TF3D refers Opera to...
I am having this same problem with 1.18 also
I believe I have solved this problem...Using Total Commander Go to Application Data/Manilla and delete the two xml files there "InternetPortal.xml and InternetPortal-en-AU.xml"
On the Pure, the default page when you click "Launch Web Browser" is att.net. How do I change this? Also, is there a way to change the "Add a new Push page" to just a regular bookmark? Thanks.
I could be wrong, but isn't there an option for select bookmark at the top of the page? If not, then you could just type in the address. It automatically launches att.net, just change your homepage to google and press the home button right after you launch it.
I have changed my home page on Opera to something else, however, I would like to avoid having to launch the web browser through the TouchFlo tab, and then having to interrupt the loading of a super heavy page by inmediately clicking the home page button. I would prefer to just click the "Launch Web Browser" page on go directly to my home page (yahoo mobile).
Here is how to set the default homepage in Internet Explorer:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AboutURLs]
"home"="http://www.google.com"
There should be a .xml file in "\Application Data\Manila" that you can edit the "Launch browser" address, as well as add & remove other shortcuts.
This was the case on my Touch Diamond with TouchFlo 2.1
I installed the latest Opera 9.7 build, it works fine, but when I tap on Manila 2.5 HomeScreen bookmark shotcuts they open with Pocket IE. I searched in registry but I can't find where to set Opera as default browser.
The strange thing is that html files are opened by Opera and also bookmarks from internet tabs...
What can I do?
