Default Restricted Config in TF3d-Internet Tab by T-Mobile?

Hello there,

can anybody with T-Mobile MDA compact IV confirm, that there is no possibility to configure the favorites shown in the internet-Tab of TouchFlow 3D?
My german TMob MDAcIV shows only two favorites ("MobileTV" and "Suche") and i don't see any possibility to add more. I tried to add some within opera and within PIE and none of these are visible in TF3D. Plus i can't find any "normal" configuration-screen to add favorites / bookmarks here. Is there any Patch known for this, e.g. within the registry?

Thanks in advance,
Malte

Try editing opera6.adr in the Opera directory. By doing this you can add (backup) your site links and also change the order in which they appear on the Internet tab. The order isn't changed in Opera though as this is always displayed in alpha order.

I hope that helps you.

Sorry, but your answer doesn't help me. I can modify the bookmarks inside opera - either directly inside opera (via the "star"-button) or via editing the opera6.adr.

My problem is, that the bookmarks never appear on the internet-tab inside TouchFlow3d. I thought - as i remember the htc-launch-event-video right - i could see my bookmarks in the TouchFlow3d Tab and coud access them directly by pressing one and opera should be launched afterwards directly accessing the chosen url.

Or am i getting something wrong here???

I've got the same problem. I have a MDA Compact IV and on my Internet Tab it has a logo of web 'n' walk (the internet service of T-Mobile) and below it one favorite: Search. I've added a few favorites, but they won't show up in this tab. I do see them in Opera itself, but I'd like to have them in the TF3D tab also.

after debranding and reinstalling opera from rom you will still see web n walk icon but additional you'll find your opera bookmarks below.

What exactly is debranding? For example I'm currently using the TF3D Config and selected the HTC Black theme instead of my default T-Mobile theme. So basicly it's debranded or is debranding something else?

I had the same problem, and I found it very annoying.
I've been searching the diamond and found some xml files in the following directory:
\Application Data\manila

There are several xml-files, choose the one for your own language-country combination.

1) Make a backup of the xml-file
2) Clear the read-only and the system flags of the xml-file.
3) Change the value of the <IncludeUserFavorites> field to TRUE
4) Save and you are ready.

P.S.
While you're there, you can also remove the <banner > field to get rid of the logo, and remove/change/add OperatorLinks ( e.g. the Search link)

Wow, thanks a lot! That's exactly what I was looking for.
