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.

hi, t-mac.. that didnt help either. i did a hard reset to see if i could eliminate that problem, but that didnt work.
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.
I managed to navigate to www dot bbc dot com/future on my Nexus. I tried to access this page from a PC, but it said not available in my country. This started ringing alarm bells, but didnt really think anything of it.
I went on laterooms earlier and everything came up in dollars. I thought this was a bit strange and had to change the default on the page.
I just went on another website and it asked if I was shopping from the USA and if I wanted to convert everything to dollars.
Any ideas if I can change this?

I've tried many ways on YouTube none have worked. I found out a way to get on the Android launcher but when I try to factory reset it doesn't let me.
Generic solution to frp is to access browser no matter which one. Except for samsung phones and not all of them but a few. Accessing browser you need to download two apps. One is quickshortcutmaker and second is to download old google manager for log in but it need to be web log in. There is ton of videos out there. The reason you want web log in is so you can add additional account to that device. The rest is history.

I know about this one. Some Samsung phones have issues with this when u change password. It takes forever. U need to access share button in beginning of verification. Share button either name share or 3 dots or 2 dots connected. Try every single app choice u get. Apps itself is not the reason but web browser is. There are some apps which lets you share further. And there you will find browser icon. Try weshare!!!!!!
I never tried this on Axon 7 but i assume its similar to Lenovo A series with their own copy whole phone type of app. It lets you enter browser in that app. I assume that weshare is behaving in same matter.
The order is like this
You have google log in screen. Either you try there on log in or you try while accessing wifi. There is always some hyperlinks there like help, feedback, policy, security etc etc. When ever there is hyperlink then there is couple of options. Then you need to access copy paste by holding marked letters to access share or open in browser etc etc. From there is easy if you can access web browser. Follow youtube for rest.
The only time screw up messes "everything" and there is "nothing " you can do then wait is when you delete iphone from your own icloud so you dont have icloud on actuall device and then want to change password on pc while two step verification is active. That is a nightmare. It cant take up to a month before apple makes it done.

Actually no it hasn't been 3 days I remembered I reseted my device from powering it off when I was trying to fix it so that would mean that the time would reset meaning I have to wait 2 days more to see if it will disappear. How long ago was this for you?

It was 48 hours for me exactly when it was fixed. Usually I heard it takes at least 72 hours to get cleared up.

I typically used their voice unlock to get in the settings or using the keyboard on the setup to get in settings, went to backup and account, pressed factory reset and it didn't work. I waited 48 hrs, then it let me sign in.

Hey don't know if you have seen this but I would try to use this app. I haven't had to FRP unlock a Axon7, but I have had a bit of experience in taking FRP off of phones along with many other fixes. If you can get to chrome or whatever browser and download and install this then it should work. I have used this on a ZTE ZMax Pro, so I would imagine it would work here unless they patched it. Anyway, good luck and let me know if you need more help.

Hmm... Well as I have not needed to FRP reset my Axon I can't really tell you exactly what to do. All I know is that method works on some and not others. Really what you are trying to do, especially if you can use the web login like someone else mentioned, is add a Google account that you remember how to login too. Then when you factory reset you should be good. If that doesn't work I say either try to reset the password or whatever Google account is on there, or maybe EDL mode programs which I haven't done much with. I'll keep looking for another way.
Edit: btw the web login you can try to use would be with the com.rootjunky.frpbypass-1.0.apk 1.17MB on the same site I last linked. That along with maybe one of the other Google account managers that are listed there. Good luck!
Hi all,
I did a cursory check to see if there was a thread on this and couldn't find it so I'm going to ask outright.
When I get sent an amazon web link or want to pay something with PayPal, to give a couple of examples, I'd like the default app to open and not a new browser page. I'm not to android so I've had plenty of phones in the past that have operated in this way (oneplus 3t being the most recent example). Unfortunately I can't seem to get it to work with my S8 and it's a bit of an annoyance.
Does anyone know how to get this to work?
I have tried changing some of the settings in the attached screen but no success yet.
Any ideas?

The time I've seen this, is the page gives an option to launch in app sometimes, I'm not really sure how you can set it to open in their respective apps. I am interested in this though so gonna look into this

That would be great. I can't find an answer and I don't get an option to choose the app...mostly. As a test, try and get this link to open in Amazon. It's 'shared' directly from the app do the expectation is that it would open in the app

Yeah, I get the 'view in app' option also but that's an Amazon URL thing I believe. It doesn't give that option, for example, with a PayPal payment. It simply goes to the website which is what I'm hoping to change.
I'm surprised it's only you and I engaging in this. I find this very annoying and thought others might also
I've read about it a bit and involves something called app to app linking.
It's difficult for me because I've never had a device that launched, there are some apps that launch but from what I can remember when it comes to amazon and PayPal I've never had it auto launch. But you've given an answer, I'm just wondering if it has something to do with the framework, one plus is pretty much clean android whereas the s8 is touchwiz

Possibly that's it. I just assumed this was a given regardless of framework but it appears not. Does anyone know how other phones interact with URLs? Like I said, the 1+ was perfect in this regards.
So you are having issues when you attempting to open Amazon links with your app instead of the browser?

When there is a Amazon or say PayPal link web url, clicking on it opens a new browser Window instead of its respective app
Try this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tasomaniac.openwith
Good luck.
So this is EXACTLY what I have been fighting with on my S8.
The play store link from thehaXor opens the play store aop on my S7, but on my S8 takes me to the browser version of the play store.
I'll try the suggested app now and report back.
Install another browser and see if that one opens the same. Try the Firefox
