Hi, i want to share with you my customization to change the user agent in one click tapping on the Status Menu Bar and selecting one of the user agents (you'll have Firefox 6 user agent, Iphone user agent, Android user agent, Maemo (n900) default user agent. I did it becouse sometimes i need to change it manually to enter in some Wap Chats and/or mobile portals.

*** example: if you use, the live chat europe service, you are not able to see user's pictures with the default user agent becouse the server recognizes you like from a PC and resizes the pictures in extra low quality... I was not able to see user's pictures!

Download the attachment, extract the folder CUSTOMIZATION and paste it in the N900 MyDocs folder

Open Xterminal on your N900 and paste this code
Code:
root
cp -r /home/user/Mydocs/CUSTOMIZATION/opt/HideUserAgent /opt/
chmod +rwx /opt/HideUserAgent/*
cp -r /home/user/Mydocs/CUSTOMIZATION/usr/share/applications/hildon /usr/share/applications/hildon
cp -r /home/user/Mydocs/CUSTOMIZATION/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon
rm -r /home/user/Mydocs/CUSTOMIZATION
exit
close

Go to the Menu, open the control panel settings, open the Quick Launch Menu and start to setup the Buttons.. User Agents Shortcuts are:

Firefox User Agent
Android User Agent
Iphone User Agent
Maemo User Agent

Setup all the buttons with these links, and select the OK button to save.

Step 4
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Reboot the System and you are ready to switch the User Agent clicking in the status menu bar. All the times that you will change the user agent, a Screen Message will inform you about the current setting, the browser will be closed to apply the selected user agent. A female voice will tell you about that

Ciao
