| Re: searchmobileonline | JiMCi | 2/17/12 10:21 AM | I got stuck with this unwanted app. I first deleted the app this was bundled with, then on the web browser, I went to tools -> more -> settings, cleared history, cache, cookies, etc., turned the phone off then back on and voilà, gone. |
| Re: searchmobileonline | Tenka Licinius Winchester | 3/6/12 5:44 AM | Just clear "Internet" cache and data under Setting > Applications > Manage applications > choose tab All > and then search "Internet" , and then it will back like the original one. On my case I use HTC Sensation XE, the default is http://www.htc.com. |
| Re: searchmobileonline | Joshua OKS | 3/19/12 1:04 AM | Hey Tenka, Thanks for the tip. It works. I was searching high and low in Google, trying to find a solution. Well, you only posted this 12 days ago. My Internet browser was 'hijacked' more than 2 months ago. Am using HTC Desire S. |
| Re: searchmobileonline | Tenka Licinius Winchester | 3/19/12 2:39 PM | No problem, I'm glad that help you. The tips are just came into my head suddenly when I read "cache" and think out side the box. Well indeed if you clear the cache and data, you will roll back that app into fresh after install condition. Well the bad |
