Couple CF03 Usage Questions

[PJRed2008]

Couple questions about the native WM 6.1 apps on CF03.

I can’t highlite an item in File Explorer without launching it. This should be a toggle/setting but can’t find it under Menu or anyplace else.

Opera seems to be the preferred browser for WM, but I find it cumbersome and difficult to do anything with. Making and saving a favorite website is one example. Others see this, or do I just have to work with it more? I use Firefox on my PCs so am not wedded to IE by any means.

I have seen references to WiFi G not being enabled in WM 6.1. Can anyone confirm/deny this? I can use my protected network at home, and connect to hotspots, and the speed appears to be pretty good, but I can’t find anything on the phone that lets me confirm the connect speed or protocol.

Thanks
PJ

If you wanna highlight something in file explorer, just press and hold on it and then close the menu that pops up. It's a little bootsy, I know... But you can download a third party file explorer if this is a huge issue for you

You can add shortcuts in Opera by clicking the little arrow in the bottom right corner and then clicking the 'star'. You can change the default browser to whatever you like, though, if you still don't like Opera. Or you can download other browsers. I download Skyfire as an alternative browser for when I need a full-blown flash enabled mobile browser, but there are several other browsers out there.

Wireless G is enabled in WM 6.1 and 6.5. Wireless N, however, is not enabled with this phone's wifi chip. As far as download speed is concerned, that would all depend on both the network you are connected to, as well as its available bandwidth
