Change the 'user agent' identification of Pocket Internet Explorer

To change the 'user agent' identification of Pocket Internet Explorer, several fields need to be adjusted. The example shows how to identify as Internet Explorer 6 - desktop version

The standard compliance 'user-agent' string:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\(Default) = "Mozilla/4.0" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

Defaults to "Mozilla/2.0" The application/version string:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Version = "MSIE 6.0" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

- Change the "Platform" value from "Windows CE" to "Windows NT 5.1".

- Some web sites may just compare the user agent string, but if this is not enough, browse to the Post Platform\ sub key and delete the "240x320" value that specifies screen size.

Defaults to "MSIE 4.01" The host operating system string:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Platform = "Windows NT 5.0" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

Defaults to "Windows CE" Please note that if you change the Platform string, PDA-friendly sites may stop sending you PDA-friendly content automatically. Leave this string set to "Windows CE" unless a site absolutely refuses to work, or you want the site to feed you its normal content.

Changing Starting Page in PIE

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]

"Start Page"="http://xdaforums.com" <-example

IE always wanting to go to the "blank" setting and not my home page

*

- HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AboutURLs

-	change "blank" to whatever you want

Change Site IE Button brings up on your Keyboard (HTC)

Navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\OEM\KEYBD\PieHomePage". You can either delete the value completely and get a LOCAL windows default page like I do or put in the site or local file of your choice.

Change the location of 'Temporary Internet Files'

When browsing the web, pages and images are saved in the 'Temporary Internet Files' location. You can change this location to, for example, your Storage Card:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\Cache = "\Storage Card\cacheie" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

To return to the original location:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\Cache = "\Windows\Profiles\guest\Temporary Internet Files" (REG_SZ string, no quotes)

Relocate PIE data storage

This hack will increase your available ROM memory and people have reported storage gains of over 9 mb. You will need to have a storage card with some free memory installed to utilize this hack. First open up internet explorer and navigate Menu>Tools>Options>Memory and press the delete files button to clear the cache then delete the cache and the history. Then open up file explorer from the programs folder in the start menu. Navigate to the Storage Card and make sure that you are in the base directory of the card. Then create an ie folder and within that folder create a cache folder, history, and Open up a registry entry program such as Resco Registry that comes with Resco Explorer 2005. Navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\Cache". You can change the default value "\Windows\Profiles\Guest\Temporary Internet Files" to "\Storage_Card\ie\cache". Change the other values in the Shell Folders section of the registry to the folders you created and then soft reset. Be warned that you will create errors in ie if you do not have a storage card inserted with those directories on it while you are surfing from now on.

EDIT: The following post is a registry tweak to store the Pocket Internet Explorer data on your Mini-SD card instead of the internal storage. It currently results in a PocketIE error where it crashes and closes immediately after loading a page. Clearing the data using the options in PocketIE solves the problem temporarily.

find this key:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders\

3 values are here:

\Windows\Profiles\Guest\History

\Windows\Profiles\Guest\Cookies

\Windows\Profiles\Guest\Temporary Internet Files

Create a folder on your storage card for all three and edit the values above:

\Storage Card\My Documents\IE\History

\Storage Card\My Documents\IE\Cookies

\Storage Card\My Documents\IE\Temporary Internet Files

After doing this, I ran PocketIE and browsed a few websites and it appears that the temporary files are now being stored on my storage card! Let me know how this works for you...

you should be able to clear your Windows\Profiles\Guest folder now...it had been saving my gmail login/pw and when i changed the registry to bounce it to the storage card, it no longer remembered...so it's not using these folders anymore.

My last question would be about the folder \Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 - but that folder, for me, appears to be only taking about 20kb.

edit: i just found that, after making these changes, if you go to clear your temporary internet files through pocketIE, it will clear the storage card folders...if you want to clear your windows/profiles folder (which you should, to get all that space back), either do it before making these changes, or do a soft reset and use file explorer to delete the files right afterwards.

Enable the 4 way navigation button

to allow scrolling in IE insead of having to drag the scrollbar with the styus with a simple regedit.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\4-Way Nav

Change Value from 1 to 0.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\

and create a binary value named "TBOpt" (without the quotation marks, of course) and set its value to "13 00 00 00" (again, no quotes, but DO include the spaces).

Enable BT & USB DUN

Go to the phone application and dial ##3328873 (FEATURE) and hit dial it will ask for your unlock code, so enter 000000 (six zeroes) EPST will popup and you’ll see two entries: Enable Wmodem and Enable BT DUN. Highlight each in turn and click edit on the bottom right, change both to enabled. Push ok and it will prompt you to soft reset. After soft resetting, you can then dialup via Bluetooth or USB cable. In order to use the USB cable, you’ll need the CDMA USB modem drivers which are on the 6700 product CD under \OEM\APPS\Drivers\CDMA USB Modem. Or download them here: CDMA USB modem drivers. It comes with a dialer program that you don’t necessarily need to use. However, if you’re using the USB cable, you have to start the wmodem program on your pocketPC to keep it from trying to activesync. It’s located in \windows\wmodem.exe. Run this before you connect the handheld to your PC via USB. Then you can just setup a DUN connection in windows to dial #777, use your 10-digit number @vzw3g.com as your username and vzw as the password. Once the connection is setup (assuming you’re using a manual connection in windows) click on the “setup” button in the connection under USB CDMA modem and change the COM port speed to whatever the highest setting you have is. After that, you should be able to dial up just fine.

Change Voice Codec (VOCODER) from EVRC to 13k on xv6700

First dial ##778

Tap on "Edit"

Enter Unlock Code 000000

Tap on arrow to upper left hand of screen to reveal drop down menu where it says "Display"

Select "CDMA Settings"

Click and hold on the "EVRC Enabled" line under the Settings column

Select "Edit"

Switch to "Disabled"

Then press "ok"

Click and hold on the "Home Page" line under the Settings column

Select "Edit"

Switch to "Voice 13k"

Repeat for "Home Orig" and "Roam Orig"

Eliminate accidentally dialing #777, if you don't have the unlimited plan

Add a user name to the Data Network connection, without any password. In this way, when ever the phone attempts to dial #777, a password screen pops up. You can click cancel, if it isn't intentional, or just click "OK", and it will then complete the connection.

Add a disconnect button and connection time to your vision connection bubble:

Quote:

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Phone

Go to New value, then click dword value

Name the value "Flags2" without the quotes

Choose decimal value and enter 16 for value amount

Soft Reset and tap on the vision icon and it will show the disconnect button and connection time

Please note: The "always on" tweak and the Disconnect button/time connected tweak will NOT work together. The always on tweak will override the other tweak and those extra options will not be shown.

Quick 'Fix'

Well I found a quick workaround to this issue of the hardware IE button not going to the homepage you've set.

In the \windows\appbuttons folder you'll see an "Internet Explorer.lnk" file. If open the file using Word mobile it contains:

28#"\Windows\iexplore.exe"

\windows\default.htm

Edit the file so that it just says:

28#"\Windows\iexplore.exe"

Close Word mobile, kill any running instance of IE and restart it using the hardware button. Should work now.

Oh, and I'm not liable for any damage you may or may not do to your machine

start - settings - connections - connections - Manage existing connections (for me, this is under the Verizon Wireless heading) edit the Data Network Connect that has the #777 number., click next - next -

then put in a username (ANY name will do), and NOTHING else.
