What Mobile Browser Are You Using?

if IE is the pre-installed browser with your phone, meaning, your phone is something with an operating system of Windows mobile? so what brand and model is your phone? if only i have a system at home, i will also use it over my phone. it is really much more comfortable and faster to post using a regular computer or laptop.

hi. thank you for coming back here to give me your phone model, i really appreciate it. by the way, don't you think your phone is kinda aged now? lol

I have actually to shut down my phone and look for the model number since I forgot how to do it by punching symbols in the phone. Let me see, it is a Nokia 6220 bought in 2003.

hi marti. i am so sorry that i don't think i can help you with your problem right now, with your phone browser. i wish i could. but i can't figure out what could be the cause. since i installed opera mini with my phone, i have done no re-configuration with the network settings or even with the browser settings. i can open any websites and i can read my emails. i have yahoo mail account. and i guess they work the same with hotmail or msn? one more thing, opera is not the same with opera mini. so maybe you can try, the mini version? how do you connect to the internet from your place? is it only wifi that is available in your area? or do you have cable or telephone line connected with internet? in our office, we connect through wifi. the computer that is connected to the modem, that is connected to the broadband/telephone line, is the one that has a wireless router, which serves the other computers internet connection. i can also use my phone using wifi when i am in the office. but when i get out of the office, i should find another wifi hotspot somewhere, but it's too difficult to find one in our home. that's why i should connect through my phone service provider. but that is more expensive than wifi. by this time, it's over a week now that i can hardly get a network connection so i cannot post a lot when i am at home. that made me go to bed earlier than before. when i still have credit cards, one thing that i wish to get was a desktop or a laptop. i just got banned, for two years now by the banks. i failed to pay them so i can't get a system now for use at home. i know how important it is for the kids when they have researches to do, with the internet. and of course, it will also help me with my mylot works. i wish i had get it earlier. would you think it's okay for your eyes, if you will get a smaller monitor notebook? again, sorry that i can't help you with you problem with your phone. if only i can have a hands-on with your phone, maybe i can find a way. and only if i can do something with your desktop and your laptop, i wish i can help you.

Thank you for that great laugh, neil! How horrible but funny that must have been when the phone went into the water! I have had things that seemed to jump right out of my hand and right into the toilet but never a cell phone. Of course, that may be because I never take my phone into the bathroom with me unless I'm expecting an important phone call. Then, I usually place it on the sink counter or edge of the bathtub if I'm taking a bath. I don't like having it anywhere near the toilet because I'm afraid of just that same thing happening to it. As for your signal, I think that the weather has a lot to do with our ability to connect or stay connected to our wifi. If the wind is blowing in the wrong direction or if there is a lot of rain, it seems to disappear. I've noticed that our cable TV channels have problems if there is a storm or bad weather between us and where the broadcast is coming from. Hey, you guys be careful over there, okay? I was watching the weather channel just before turning on my computer and saw that typhoon that just came through the northern Philippines plus there was another weather system building just east of there and heading your way. I've gone through enough hurricanes of my own and know what they can be like. I have experienced flooding with two hurricanes. I'll be worrying about you and your family if I don't hear from you in awhile. I saw the horrible flooding that took place with that typhoon and heard that there were many deaths associated with it. Do whatever you need to do to stay safe, okay?

but at least you have your own computer and internet connection at your home?

Yup! My friend, I have computer and connected to the internet. Thanks for your response to my comments in my discussion...have great day!

i tried skyfire but it doesn't suit my preferences with my phone. safari on the other hand has some problems with nokia handsets.

hi shui. welcome to mylot. and thank you for sharing. we are both using the same phone browser, opera mini. what is your current opera mini version? try the 5.0 beta version too. with my computer, i still prefer mozilla firefox over opera. i am used to it, but i also tried opera.

hi neildc,my opera mini is 4.2 and it seems that 5.0 couldn't work on my phone.But thanks for your sharing

thanks for the suggestion and i sure will try bolt someday.

since i became a mobile internet fanatic, i use opera mini. from version 4 to 4.2 and now 5.0 beta. do you think BOLT performs better than opera mini?

Yes, in terms of speed, it is better than opera mini. It displays the web page as it appears in the computer. But coming to the user experience, opera mini is a little bit comfortable. But you can give BOLT a try. It certainly is worth it. You can remove it if you do not like it.

hi youless. are you using your cellphone alone to surf the internet? or do you still have computer? i never heard of UCweb, but i will try to check it when i got a chance. thanks for sharing. by the way, opera browser is different from opera mini, so be careful what you will install. check the capabilities of your phone before you install it. or maybe you can try both and see what will work better with your phone.

hi salonga. i know it's a lot different using computers compared to phones. with the monitor alone, it's too tiny and with people already have difficulties with their vision, it's a no-no. with computer internet browsers, i also prefer firefox compared to IE. since i tried firefox, i stick to it. even when microsoft tells me that there is available upgrade to IE, i just ignore it.

hi syankee. i also like firefox better than internet explorer. it's faster and more secured. i love the multiple tabs feature too.

thanks for the input here rey. i am so glad to here that there are still more people using Opera Mini. i really love its interface and its speed, faster than the built-in nokia browser. so have you tried Opera Mini 5.0 Beta?

what we have here in the office is broadband connection too. i use mozilla firefox with windows xp operated computer. when i get home or i am away from my office desktop, i use my phone. i can use wifi or network internet if available. have you tried the new Opera Mini 5.0 beta?

you are right tantrums, it's Opera for me too. i tried the built-in browser of nokia but it loads the pages very slow. i also tried some, i just can't remember the name of them, but Opera Mini is the best for mobile phones. have you tried the new Opera Mini 5.0 beta?

yes, i agre to your anurag. the only problem we could encounter is internet connection. lol

wow, that's a lot of browsers you have in your phone. don't they eat a lot of memory space of your phone?

hi stephcjh. do you have plans of having a new mobile phone with internet browsing capabilities? how about your internet explorer, are you satisfied with it? what version are you using now?

hi best. even me, if i have a laptop or computer at home, i will also prefer to use it instead of my phone. i hope someday i will have my own system at home. it's a lot difference compared to phone. take care, best.

hi wangjihong. it's nice to hear that you also a fan of Opera. but we don't have the same version. i think Opera 9.0 won't work with my phone so i have to stick with Opera Mini browsers. by the way, what phone do you have? i mean, what brand and model?

hi anfield. welcome to mylot. i don't have an ipod but i already saw one. is safari the built-in browser of the apple ipods? so how does it work? are you satisfied with safari's performance?
