I'm in the US, loaded the Kavana WM6.1. Afterwards I went to the opera mini site and installed the latest java browser.
Why does it think I'm in some other country? Many of the sites I goto seem to default to some Scandinavian or Russian site ... I'm not sure, since I can't read it.
I've looked in the opera mini settings which is pretty much English, menu-wise but I've found nothing to set my locale.
I'm thinking it's in the ROM and whatever Esmertec Jbed was loaded, because I didn't have this issue prior to loading this ROM. Is there some sort of registry entry that I can edit to let the ROM know I'm in the U.S.?
Thank you,
Tim
Good question..
I have experienced the same thing with like myspace for example.
that's probaby a Opera Mini issue. It routes all traffic to its home servers in Finland. I used to have this problem, but it seems corrected itself. I'm still using 080314 version of wm6.1 though.
exactly as qaplus said, its operas problem..thats how Opera Mini works so damn fast...it uses a proxy to fast feed your phone the websites, but it is all routed through Finland, so it automatically formats pages in Finland-ese(FYI Finnish I think heh)

I have Opera Mobile installed as the default browser.
How come when I click a link in an Outlook message, it opens in Pocket IE? I can't find a setting to change this. Does anyone know a solution?
(I get MLS listings from my realtor that don't open in PIE, yet open fine in Opera. PIE receives 50Kb of data from the site and then starts over opening the page again. Is there some other problem here?)
I'm running WM6 Pro 2.5 Black (Buzzing)
Opera 8.6
Running the latest LVSW, with Opera 8.65, and links in Outlook opened in Opera when it was set to the default browser in the Opera settings.
I'm having this problem too. Did you find a solution? I am running official Tytn WWE WM6.
Thanks.
Dear All
I use Yahoo mail beta and I can not use it on WM5 as it has IE4. Could you tell me if WM6 has a higher version of IE or is there something else I can use?
Thanks
Alastair
Hmmm, I have to say yes, WM6 does have a higher build number than WM5 but I don't know how to confirm. I've read something I think about the user agent string and it says something like IE6 mobile...but this is really dredging it up from my memory so sorry if I'm wrong.
However, there are a couple of things you can try before you decide to go for a WM6 ROM (which I would do anyway ) and that is PIEPlus from www.reensoft.com - this allows you to change the user string so you can make the website think you are using a desktop browser
Then there Opera 8.65 which might also do the trick.
Either way, happy hunting
Smiffy.
I liked the WM5 PIE better because it had better java support. It'd be awesome to have the WM5 browser in WM6
Are there any other browsers beside P.I.E. and Opera mini out there? I hate these 2 browsers! Please, any help would be appreciated.
Netfront, Opera for PPC (not mini) for example
Netfront is decent
you could get P.I. plus(an add-on for P.I.E), but it costs after 14 days
I've attached cab's of both
i found nokia's browser (optimized opera) on my e61 (same as n95, n93 etc.) the best, especially its minimap...alas it works only on symbian based phones
netfront
netfront....
link in rapidshare
(couldn't attach for some reason)

also link to opera mobile for ppc

Minimo
Try Minimo. It can be a tad slow to open tabs, but it renders far quicker than PIE. FYI, Minimo is a port of Mozilla Firefox for WM5/6. Strangely, I haven't seen it mentioned here before.

Thanks that minimo browser is what i was looking for a java enabled browser the interface is kind of funny though but im trying to understand it.
I was about to post a similar message today. I just upgraded to the Vp3G WM6 Rom and finding that Opera mini doesn't work as well as it did on WM5 (I've tried both the 3.1 and beta 4 versions and they both act buggy and slower).
I've never liked PIE and I even downloaded the beta version of their Deepfish browser which is slow and doesn't zoom well.
I've used Piscel browser, which is great for zooming but not really for browsing quickly, plus I'm getting the memory full error too often.
I have the Opera 6.5 full mobile browser, but it's slow too. The plus is that that one will let you download stuff (such as megaupload files, etc)
I'll try the Mozilla one, but it doesn't seem too great.
The NetFront one is slow too and zooming isn't very user friendly.
I guess I'll have to wait til Opera gets their act together on the real release of the next mini, unless there's something else out there. Opera mini, IMO, is hands down has been the best mobile browser out there so far, but I wish it wasn't so buggy running on WM6.
Menneysys started a new 3d four months ago. At that time the trick worked only in WM6 PRO devices, using mortscript. (MY) MAJOR BREAKTHROUGH: now, you can use Opera Mini as the system-level Web browser!
After some days the WM6 standard fix was done, but now HERE has been posted a simple CAB to set opera mini as default web app. I've tested and it works flawless in Kavana's (should be the same in Ricky's) ROM.
I have Opera Mini as default web browser now, opening web links in e-mail, contacts, ... !
Thank you! This worked perfectly. Do you know of any way to bypass the jbed security messages on Kavana's WM6.1 ROM?
The Jbed is part of the ROM, so I can't find the files that some of the previous hacks mentioned.

I found a link here in the forums on how to bypass the security messages. Click the link below. Great fix!

First why don't you do a search, it would help you a lot.
IE is slow because WM Smartphones can't close running programs directly (they are only minimised), you have to go to task manager and to close a running program. Now when you start IE it will eat like 5Mb of your memory not to mention media player (10Mb). In onther words your device will freeze instantly. To avoid this you need a program called "Oxios CloseApps" a freeware wich will help a lot as it will stop all running programs and retrive lost memory. There is a cab containing that program here at the forum, but to find it you need to do a search so you can develop searching skills.
As for the other problem that you could not install a program read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432946 - apllication unlock
Cheers
its not the problem..
first,thanks for the advise.
but the slow is not from the ram memory.
its from the open webs
do you know a browser ?
