Can't enable full webpages - LG Optimus 2x

Hi,
I can't seem to get full webpages view to work on my Optimus 2x (froyo).
I tried going into the stock browser, typing "about:debug" in the address bar, go into setting, then UA then select desktop. After a searching the web this seems to be the way to get it done, but it doesn't.
For instance: When I try to open "www.nfl.com" it always directs to the mobile version. I tried almost every browser, but no change. I even installed Dolphin Browser HD and the addon called "Desktop Toggles", but that didn't work either.
Does anyone have a solution?
TNX!

There is no other settings, i don't have this problem with most pages but in you case you can click on “view full webpage“ bellow the page.

Have you opened your browser, go yo menu/settings/disable mobile pages? That works for me for most pages (except facebook, I think)

Did you even try skyfire browser? Skyfire for winmo gave exact desktop pages (haven't tried for android)

I got an error message from the webpage when I did that.
I tried every browser out there (also skyfire) but it will not display nfl.com in desktop view.
I previously had an touch pro 2 with opera 9 and to view full webpages i only had to uncheck the "uaurlprof" in the opera:config user prefs menu. I never had a problem with any webpage.
I tried opera but this method also didn't work.
It's killing me!
I want to watch flash nfl video's that are on the full webpage!
Hope someone has a einstein-like solution.

I tried the site on the default browser.
I don't get the desktop version until I use about:debug on the site itself. I first opened nhl and was redirected to the mobile site (browser set to desktop), when I opened the settings I reclicked the desktop setting by about:debug, after a refresh I was seeing the next site.
Weird behavior..

Thanks 4 the info: IT WORKED!

Try - Hidden Menu | Browser Utility
If you really want control.
Report back if it withstands a reboot... would be interested.
May only work for stock browser.

LH Optimus 2X full webpages enable.
I’m guessing you’ve had enough of WAP browsing even though you set your browser UAstring to desktop etc.
You need to do the following 2 things detailed below, you’ve already done the second by the looks of it.
First:
Create a shortcut to the hidden menu buy doing the following:
Example using LauncherPro [free of the market], (others will use a similar method):
Long press on home screen
Select Shortcuts
Select Activities
Scroll down to and expand com.lge.hiddenmenu
Select HiddenMenu (first entry)
Enter Shortcut name
Click on shortcut to launch
Enter Browser Utility > Enable/Disable X-wap-profile (should see a 0 zero if set correctly)
Reboot phone, most sites should show the full desktop style web page.
Second:
From your browser type ‘about:debug’ without the quotes into your address bar, press enter. Nothing will happen;
Click More > Settings > Debug > UAstring > Desktop
All done, full webpages from every site!
Thanks to ‘blog.optimus2x.net’ for showing me how to enable the hidden menu.

[Guide] UAString

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to make a quick guide on how to change the UAString.
This of course will enable you to default to the desktop view over the mobile view like i know you all want to.
Step 1.
Open up the browser, type into the URL bar "about:debug" and press enter.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Note:
After entering about:debug the URL will default back to the URL of the page you are on but there are now extra options available to use in the menu.
Step 2.
Now open up the menu in the top right and click on settings.
Step 3.
Now you are in the settings menu head on down to debug and then click on UAString.
Step 4.
Here is the list of available UAStrings I personally use desktop(it will make all websites think you are on a desktop computer so no more mobile website by defualt)
Step 5.
Now to get out of debug mode, back out of the settings menu and enter "about:debug" in the URL bar and press enter.
Step 6.
Now to quickly check to make sure you have correctly exited debug just click on the menu icon and make sure you have the normal control set again.
Now head out into the interwebz and enjoy not defaulting to mobile sites
Nicely done with the Screens! +1
This post should be added to the a complete guide when its made
Thank You!!! This was driving me NUTS!!
You Da Man!!
Thanks mate. Does this setting stick across sessions or does it reset back to normal when you exit? Will try it when I get home.
I read somewhere that the Xoom needed a hacked framework to make the change permanent.

Seems to stick. I closed the browser in the settings==>applications menu and it was still in desktop mode. Ill try and find the details about the Xoom issue and see ifit is reproducable on the tab.
works for me also thanks alot
thanks for the instructions
but unfortunately this doesn't work reliable. some websites still detect the device as a non-desktop device, e.g. www.bild.de, and forward to their respective mobile-sites. don't know why.
but for the most of the sites, it works perfectly.
How did you get the "Labs" options in your browser settings? I can't seem to have it on mine.
For me the debug mode doesn't persist between sessions. The UA change is saved, but I have to go into debug mode every time the browser is started. So I set my homepage to about:debug and have to press enter on the address bar each session.
Tried this on Engadget and Facebook.
"interesting" thing: with about:debug i set my uastring to froyo-n1 (or whatever the last entry is called), then the browser crashed. now everytime i enter about:debug, the browser crashes immedialtely. cannot revert this setting anymore. already did a reboot - no success. don't wanna do a factory reset.
do you have any hints on this?
Try clearing data and cache from settings==>applications==>MANAGE APPLICATIONS menu.

I honestly feel we should start email campaigns to the bigger websites to get them to identify this Android version as desktop to save us from this constant issue.
Ever since android was flash enabled , and many sites went over to HTML for the douchepad I see no reason to continue to I.D Android for teeny mobile versions.
It SHOULD always be an option in reverse. As in you can opt in to mobile browsing.
Oh and USatring never seems to stick for too long.
Yer try ipad uastring it seems to override a lot of issues, also dolphin and opera do uastring a lot better
Also because of RIM there is still a huge requirement for mobile sites to be defaulted as it's a b*tch to opt into mobile view on such tiny screens.
And with ice cream sandwich we will loss out again on the same privileges the ipad is getting
But the real simple fix would for web devs to make m.domain.region to be mobile and domain.region to be full content
Anyway we don't live in a perfect world, and if we did XDA would be a little pointless. But I love finding fixs more then i hate finding problems

Labs should be there regardless of whether debug is on or off.
Sorry i cannot be more help would test to see what environments it does not appear in but sending my 10.1v back today, got sick of the sluggish performance and screen bleeding.

[Icons]Launcher Pro Icon Theme - Suave

I have created a theme pack using "Suave" style icon found in the Internet. Thought I would share to fellow XDA community.
DL the first version APK here: http://db.tt/74NJMGV
Update #1: View Post
You may use as it is. Due to my work I won't be able to commit on extending the apps coverage.
However, you may use my eclipse project as a template (I just included the "res" folder and files, saving you time to start from scratch): http://db.tt/DCyGtQR
using that with the tutorial over here: Create Launcher Pro Theme APK using Eclipse
All the Icons included in this APK:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Edit: some icon in the screenshot is actually the default icon, it's near "Suave"-like so I didn't bother to change it. Also some stock apps icon not included because I have hidden it from showing in the launcher.
Edit #2: get the 9000+ suave icon here: http://www.andreas-heiberg.com/Blog/2010/06/25/freebie-the-complete-suave-pack-v4/
Help me to help you, please list out the activity of the apps you want, to find the correct activity there going to be some guessing and trial and error, for example:
finding the right activity for stock browser:
1. Long press on empty space in homescreen -> add Shortcuts -> Activities
2. Find the correct name for the app, in this case "Browser".
3. Expand the Browser, you will get a list of things aka activities.
4. Give it your best shot on which activities is the correct 1, and add it to your home screen.
5. Launch the shortcut you just created, if it opens up the exact same screen as you open Browser in the app drawer, 90% it is correct. In this case the correct activity name for the browser is "com.android.browser.BrowserActivity"
note: in step 5. i say 90% correct because some app have few activities that opens up the same screen. So if you found such behavior, name both the activities name for me.
Don't forget to click Thanks button if you like it
gonna test it now xD

Hi, very good job! It would be good if you add posibility to add own icons to any app. I have a very big Suave pack and want to add some icons, i don't want to wait it from you)
Hi fantastic work! it's breathing new life into my HTC Desire. I thought rooting and flashing were game changers, but new icons are just as important.
When you have the time, could you please update the icon pack to include the following:
PubTrain: cz.fhejl.pubtran.CustomMainActivity
Guardian Anywhere: com.futureplatforms.android.guardian.FrontScreenActivity
PS3 Friends: com.kludgery.android.ps3friends.activity.LoginActivity
Movies: net.flixster.android.LauncherActivity
Many thanks.
OP, you're amazing. thank you!
i also second flixster's movies!
This is really great , I just loved it. I will definitely give it a go.

Really neat stuff. works perfectly!
I was wondering if it is possible to completely disable quick launch in a similar way? I have a droid 4 with a physical keyboard that is running jellybean so the regular quick launch menu isn't available to disable it. I followed your directions and I am able to open quick launch with the terminal, but I can't set the preset shortcuts to nothing, I can only select another app. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

can't find any way to deselect things, sorry.
wanted to add though that another way of accessing quick launch is using nova launcher, some other launchers would allow it too. long-press on home screen > short cuts > activities > expand "settings" > QuickLaunchSettings

Ok, thanks a lot. The problem I was having was that while texting with the physical keyboard it would randomly open up the phone app and start typing whatever I was typing into the contact search and subsequently calling people before I realized what was happening. I assumed this was a problem with the quick launch selecting the contacts app and causing problems for me. I really don't know how the quick launch was being activated in the first place though as the only "search" button I have that activates the quick search is located on the face of the phone and I know I am not pressing it. Do you know of any other methods of activating quick launch which a physical keyboard or if there is a glitch with a phone that was upgraded from ICS to Jellybean?
Thanks again,
Foxgirl17
Try rebooting your phone

I used to have the same problem when I was running the stock ROM. Occasionally while using the physical keyboard, the phone would start jumping to random programs. The problem wasn't consistent, but was easily solved by rebooting the phone. I haven't had the issue since switching to AVATAR ROM. Must have been a bug in the stock software.

How to enter username & password for connecting to WiFi network in office?

Hi,
Kindly help me to automate this task using Tasker.
I am using Oneplus 3 with CM14.1. I have already created a task which automatically enables Wifi whenever I am near to home or office (using Cella near). That is working fine.
In my office, whenever we connect to WiFi, it is showing a notification asking to enter username and password. I have to enter the username and password every time when I disconnect and reconnect.
How can I automate this authentication process using Tasker?
These are the screenshots :-

I guess AutoInput can do this. Save your user name and password to a file on your phone. Let Tasker pull this information and AutoInput put it in there. That is what I would try to do.

Downloaded and tried. Not able to create tasks as required. I am looking for steps by step instructions.
I can't get AutoInput to work either.
But if you are rooted you can use just tasker. Then you dont have to install an extra app.
To do so create a task and add a Run Shell.
Check the button Use Root and under command you add:
Code:
input tap x y
input text login-name
input tap x y
input text login-password
input tap x y
With x and y being the coordinates of the fields where you tap. If you need to figure out these you can turn on pointer position under developer options.
That should work.
But remember that your password will be readable by anybody with access to your phone. Maybe you should lock tasker with a pin code, although that adds just a tiny bit of security.

Thanks for reply. I guess, it works. I would like to know how to open web login page as soon as I connect to wireless network. Usually a notification appears as soon as I connect to wifi then I have to open the web login page from notification bar. How do I automate this as well?
Maybe AutoInput can help you. When the notification arrived AutoInput tap it and open the browser for you.

Sorry kinda thought there would appear a popup window.
If you click on the notification and it opens in the browser, is there a link you could enter manually?
If so you could add another action to open the link. Use Net-> Browse URL to open the link and then do as I said before.
If there is no link you could add Display->Status Bar and select expanded. This will open your notification drawer and with another input tap you could select the notification. But that is getting kinda complicated , if the notification isn't always in the same place...
Kinda hard to figure out a good way, without being able to test it so maybe you have to tweak it a little.

Will it perform the same action as a shell command or will it just open the link, without the need to emulate the swipe and click?
I am not sure how she'll comands works. I never used it. AutoInput will simulate the klick. Swiping are only available at Android 7 when I remember right. But the Klick on the notification opens the browser right? If so then you can have the login information stored in a file and copy and past it with AutoInput in. Then Klick login with AutoInput and you are done.

The shell just pretends that the user tapped at the given coordinates, so the display has to be on and you can watch your device doing things. So I would guess AutoInput does the same, but without the need for root...

[APP][5.0+][Alpha] Widgets for Android Auto

I put together a little app for Android Auto that can show a single widget:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Update v0.2.0: fullscreen mode
Installation
In the Android Auto app open the Hamburger menu.
Open About.
Tap "About Android Auto" header 10 times, until "Developer mode enabled" toast appears.
Tap dots on the top right of the screen.
Select "Developer settings" from the menu and enable "Unknown sources".
Usage
Open the app and select a widget to display
Connect your device to your head unit and select "Widgets" on the OEM Tab

This is quite an interesting project. I'm guessing you have an AppWidget in the app and you're proxying the user chosen widget through it, right?
If that's the way, it should also be possible to add some other provider info XMLs, to let people choose, say, up to 5 widgets.
Anyway, I'm definitely going to follow this progress. You should definitely host on Labs.

Yes, you're totally right. The user can choose a widget in the app and it gets displayed inside the app. Afterwards I take the widget and show it in the Auto Activity. Therefore, it's no problem to extend this to multiple widgets.
I will look into hosting on XDA Labs.
i test it on waze widget. the widget look stretched out full screen, and not able to show any data

Since this is an AppWidget proxy, and it allows you to use widgets not optimized for Android Auto, there's not really anything the developer can do.
More screenshots please this be used with a 'Kustom Widget' I hope ?

You can use my app with any widget you have installed - so any widget that can be added to your launcher should be possible.

Please please please let us add more widgets. Already, years have gone by and the developer support for optimized apps just isn't as robust as promised by now.
Also, phone can't open the apk file. Pixel 2XL 8.1
Thanks OP! Looks cool. However I am unable to install it on Pixel OG 8.1. Is Android O not supported? Thanks!

I had the same problem when trying to install the APK from the download page. Open up a file manager and install it that way, it worked for me.
Thank you for this! Endless possibilities with KustomWidget and Tasker!

Perhaps the file didn't download correctly? Could be corrupt.
I used mix Explorer from the XDA labs and it worked fine. Only problem is I can't get any of the widgets to actually show up in Android auto. I have developer mode open so I can use night mode all the time and set it up for unknown sources but no bueno.

Go to the OEM tab in Auto on your car (the one where you'd normally see a "Return to <Whatever>" button), and you'll see a bunch more stuff there.
