So hell froze over and Apple accepted Opera Mini into the app store. Does anyone know what the user agent string will be?

The documentation says that Opera's template is like this:

Opera/9.80 (J2ME/MIDP; Opera Mini/$CLIENT_VERSION/$SERVER_VERSION; U; $LANGUAGE) Presto/$PRESTO_VERSION

+2  A: 

Opera/9.80 (J2ME/MIDP; Opera Mini/5.0.0176/1150; U; en) Presto/2.4.15

Hi,

For some reason unknown to me, my mobile provider blocks some user agents and allows others. My iPhone's safari goes through fine, but when I installed Opera Mini today, I could not get through. Thus, I need to edit the user agent ID and make it blank (or set it to something else) so that my requests can go through. Is this possible with Opera Mini on iPhones? If so, can you please point me to what I need to edit/change?

Thanks!

Hi BubbleBum, perhaps you should try asking this question on http://superuser.com

The Opera Mini UA string was updated to include "iPhone" one day after release, FYI.

Opera/9.80 (iPhone; Opera Mini/5.0.0176/764; U; en) Presto/2.4.15

@BubbleBum: Sounds like more of a problem with your mobile provider, than Opera Mini or any other browser they stupidly block. Did you ping them and ask them to unblock Opera Mini?
