Exclamation How to set IE as dominant browser..?

I've searched high and low, and I've even tried the 'Darkness231 Opera Default Remover' which did not seem to actually do anything unless there is a new setting somewhere that needs tweaked post install which I was not aware of...

BTW: I have the Verizon Touch Pro.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and likely rewarded too!

Thanks in advance.

-Tim

Nope, it still continues to launch Opera from the TFLO3D Tab...

Re: How to set IE as dominant browser..?

In TF3D it is programmed to Load Opera I believe, it doesn't go off of the default browser. You would need to edit the corresponding manila file to have it open IE instead. Try to open another hyperlink such as from a text or email and see if it opens in IE, If so IE is your default browser and it is a coded into Tf3d.

Re: How to set IE as dominant browser..?

Is anyone available to help locate the specific registry so that I can change the TFLO3D Browser icon to point to IE..?

Re: How to set IE as dominant browser..?

I need the BROWSER icon in TFLO3D to open IE rather than Opera.

Is it worth $25 for anyone to do this for me..?

I'm using the Verizon OEM ROM, so that needs to be taken into consideration...

FWIW: I've had a series of mild strokes over the past couple of years, making the Opera links are a nightmare to activate since I have like NO feeling in my hands/fingers these days... I desperately need IE due to it's ease of use and familiarity and since I find it's far easier for me to use the TF3D, that's where I need the IE to be.

PayPal standing by!
