Re: [Announce] User Agent Tool - change Maemo Browser's user agent
Pretty much a repeat of Vetsin's comment but I did "dpkg --purge", to remove it completely first.
Code:
/home/user # dpkg -l | grep useragent |

Re: [Announce] User Agent Tool - change Maemo Browser's user agent
Apparenty, the update's stuck in the gears of the repo system? :|
Anyway, I like this program a lot. The only problem is, I sometimes need to imitate the useragents of different Chrome versions, and different Firefox versions. The presets aren't of much use for my usecase, since I don't have a use for different phones' useragent strings. Also, some sites are starting to pull the plug on Firefox 3 support and even though some of them would still work fine on microb, the pages give out "unsupported browser" prompts that I bypass by just incrementing the version number by one or two. :) These usecases would warrant the usefulness of having a user-customizable useragent list, IMHO. Anyway, thank you for your application. I'll try to donate a bit. |

Re: [Announce] User Agent Tool - change Maemo Browser's user agent
Question:- Does your application modify general.useragent.vendor or general.useragent.override?
I am playing around trying to find a more up to date agent setting that will work on facebook. I have discovered that they only work if put in general.useragent.vendor. This is, of course, reset back to original on browser restart. If you define the agent in general.useragent.override, facebook starts to load but does not complete. Why do I want to change it? To stop that annoying "update you browser" message that facebook comes out with from time to time.. |

Re: [Announce] User Agent Tool - change Maemo Browser's user agent
I thought it puts a request to modify general.useragent.override in ~/.mozilla/microb/user.jss .

http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...9&postcount=53 I have tried loads of agent definitions, they all cause facebook to just partially load. Definitions with only general.useragent.vendor work and of course, they get reset on browser restart. I would like to know if anyone else sees this. |

It's general.useragent.override indeed.Just Code:
sed -i 's/override/vendor/g' /home/user/.mozilla/microb/user.js |

I understand sed but can't understand what this is supposed to do... Anyway, tried it & facebook still fails.... edit, got you, changed 'user' to 'vendor' still fails though... when look in about:config, my user agent is listed in the general.useragent.override entry, it would be, as can have only one 'vendor' entry, that loaded from 'prefs*' |

As stated earlier, no matter what you enter in general.useragent.vendor, it gets overriden back to Firefox/3.5 Maemo Browser 1.7.48 RX-51 N900 on browser start. I have created s user.js script, with:- Code:
user_pref("general.useragent.vendor", "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:21.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/21.0"); about:config shows general.useragent.vendor unchanged @ Firefox/3.5..... Changing user.js to:- Code:

Re: [Announce] User Agent Tool - change Maemo Browser's user agent
Well, a small notice: I don't plan developing it further. But if you motivate me properly :) I may port the UI to qt-components-hildon, to give it a status bar and a fremantle look-and-feel ;) [or add something else]
/edit: hildon components aren't currently stable, so won't touch 'em |

Okay, I try to explain the sequence.
Choose any version Well-known user agent. Do a Restart BrowserUI. Does try to launh browser from the program. Do reboot device. Nothing helps. Maybe it's due to the fact that it put? Link LOG: Code:

Re: [Announce] User Agent Tool - change Maemo Browser's user agent
On the off chance I noticed I issue with this package.
I was searching for a package in HAM and accidentally typed "qp" the only hit was a package that clearly has a broken control file. The uuencoded icon text is displayed as the description for the package, making HAM display a wall of characters. Oddly it doesn't appear to have the same effect on the package page Can this pleased be fixed |

First of all, hildon components are currently so unstable that I decided not to use it at all. Don't you have some qt-components installed? Please show the output of
