Hi,
Is there any way to change the Iphone’s user agent string? Sites like applicationmanager.gov refuse access to Safari users and Iphone refuses installation of other browsers. Could I change the Iphone user agent string to imitate IE, Firefox, or Opera, like a regular desktop user? If so, how?
Thanks.

-Ken

Nice trick according to CNetTV. I am sure AT&T loves this.

James, if you change the user agent in safari (or any browser that supports it) you can access the mobile version of the site from a Mac.

Yeah, well… Garbage in, Garbage out. This story said .net, so I tried .net.

Great! It works on my N95-3. I was able to view my folders, change folders, and download an MP3.

Good stuff from M$!

You might want to change it to .com instead of .net. That worked for me.

My bad, Matthew. It’s a .com, not a .net URL. I just fixed the link so hopefully it works for you!

I just tried this on my Nokia N95-3. Sadly, I receive the error “Web: no gateway reply”.
