Try long pressing the picture and then select open in new window see if that helps.

Yeah sometimes it is the site and not the device. Some sites don't have it set up so mobile devices can veiw the image online, they make you download it. I know it is crappy but hey atleast you do get to veiw it. I will see if I can't help uou find a work around for it. This might help too. Go to the little arrow icon at the bottom right hand corner of the Opera browser and toch on it. A menu will come up touch on I think it says settings and check all the options there. I forget wich one it is but one of the options lets you choose to browse as a mobile device or PC. Check PC and see if that helps.

Mobiletag works fine on my HD2.... at what point does it crash for you?
that screen that tells me to take a photo of the code. it sends me to 'camera mode'. after taking the photo, i'll hit return and it brings up a "ARM 11 error" screen. then it crashes out. i'm running energy rom. i downloaded the app thru the developer's website, rather than microsoft marketplace.

I've never gotten anything from ms marketplace either... no point. Anyways, with that app, when it takes you to camera mode, you are not suppose to take the picture yourself. As soon as it can read the bar code properly and it focuses, the program snaps the picture automatically. Just try to get the barcode in the middle of the screen and keep it still so it focuses. Don't push anything to take the pic yourself.... that's probably whats throwing the program off. It has trouble reading the barcode in low light settings sometimes, too.
I hope that helps.

ahhhh. yep. i didn't position the code correctly in the middle and i kept trying to take photos of it. once i let the code appear like the size of a postage stamp, it finally worked. thanks.
does it force you to use IE too? i googled for a work around so it would use opera instead...but no go.

Not sure. I thought it used opera for me, but I'm not positive. I haven't installed it again since I last changed roms. I'll install it again later and see what I can figure out.

If you open Quickmark, then tap "Options" (on the bottom right in the HD2), then tap "Settings", then tap "Settings" again, you should see an option to choose "Opera Browser" instead of IE. If you don't, then this feature might be disabled in your registry. With a registry editor, search for "Quickmark" and you will find a value called "Choice_Browser". Make sure this is set to "1".
Ok so before when viewing photos in mediascape I learned that you could tap the mail icon and there would be an option to upload to my picasa web album. Well suddenly it is no longer available?? The only thing that ive done to change anything on my phone since this took place is to install Helixlauncher, which I don't think would screw with that.
Any thoughts??

In order to basically get back to where you started (option to upload picasa web album) you'll need to follow some basic steps....
1. Uninstall Helixlaucher
2. Stop asking silly questions
3. Wouldn't you think that if everything was as you wanted it before you installed an app, things went "wrong" after installation of said app, that it only stands to reason if you uninstall that very same app, you'll be at square one again?
4. Now THIS was a problem. (Just read my friend. Just read)
Which was solved with a little bit of know how!
i cant seem to get any of my movies to play on my hd2, i dont have the original memory card, but i made a mulitmedia folder and put a movie folder and a video folder in it, neither one of them work with getting my movies to play, i have tried putting them in several places, and its making me very angry that i cant put movies on my phone, id really appreciate some help.
What format is the movie? This might help.
Click on the link to my sig. Scroll down the first post until you see "FREE". Download the TCPMP cab and use that to play your movies. Let me know if it works.
i downloaded the cab, but when i opened the app, it forze, so i restarted the device, and now it as soon as i open it, it says an error has occured and the app will now close, any help here?

i have no clue how to use this software... what do i do?
So basically I had added a favorite to the sense tab and clicked on it while using free WiFi at McDonald's so the page it shows is the page where you accept the terms of service for the free WiFi. I have searched for it, but if I somehow did miss the answer I apologize in advance. I have tried removing the favorite from the tab & removing the favorite all together & then re-adding it and it still shows the wrong preview. I am guessing that there is a directory somewhere that I would be able to just delete the preview data. TIA for any help!!!
Bump I would love to know too.

That's a weird one. Did you try deleting it, then doing a soft reset, then adding it?
Have you looked in the Windows\Temporary Internet Files folder? Or maybe it's the Temp folder? See if the images for the shortcuts are cached in one of those folders. If so, you can just delete them and that should take care of it.
all the thumbnails are located in:
/Windows/Thumbnail
simply find the one you have and replace it with one you want or delete it. (the names are very long and make no sense, but in the end are simply .pngs.)

scratches head...sorry mate. it worked for me previously. did you save the file somewhere else before deleting it? sorry it isn't working out the way you/i had hoped...
I upgraded to Oprea 10 I think it is beta and I don't have this problem anymore, it seems to update the thumbnails often.
Syncing contacts was a bit of a pain but it's done now .
Right guys what else should i be doing , what tips do i need from you ?
Awesome machine by the way
My tip is remember to link not just your Facebook account to your Windows Live ID. There are a whole host of different services that tie in.
That's one thing most people seem to forget.

On your Windows Live you can link facebook to hotmail to get facebook feed and contacts. But when you get them together and then add facebook on your phone again it can get messy
Its usually not a problem. If you go into setting and swipe to applications and choose people. You can set facebook information only to add to existing contacts rather than having all of them in your phone book.
Best tip touch and hold and find the extra things you could do
Best way to find out more is to go on youtube and see demos and previews by microsoft

I'll do that mate , thanks for your advice
Only thing you need to know for smartphones these days is swipe up and down, left and right, press and press and hold.
Dont be affraid to press every single function and explore it.
Since my first phone ive yet only found one i couldnt use That was a cheap 70 quid Samsung phone from my friend damn things was horrible.
But smartphones are so easy to use these days its nothing hard.
If you want to post your facebook status from people hub click on your picture in the pic hub, that will bring you to your fb wall. Then click again on your status or pic to post your status in Facebook or in Windows Live

I actually think this one is pretty straightforward compared to Nokias or Blackberries . Just a couple of minor things that annoy me a wee bit but nothing major
Same here. But nothing major. I badly need tethering though

I tried and got the same message, however after doing a search I noticed that on this link there is one extra # at the end of the first string so tried it with just one and it went into the diagnostic window. Only trouble is I dont know what to do about settings etc.
Thanks
