[How To] Disable Force Mobile View in Stock Browser

[behold_this]

This is a quick work around for fixing the forced mobile view on websites on the stock browser. I've seen this question here and in the tmo forums so thought I'd post this up for those needing help.

Open browser > in address bar type "about:debug" (without quotes) & press go > press menu > select more > select settings > scroll down and select UAString > select "desktop"

Follow the directions EXACTLY. Don't skip ahead, don't miss a step. Any trouble following these simple steps will likely be due to user error.

I might not be reading this right but I cannot find UAstring

I have tried this step by step and the browser keeps defaulting to mobile versions. I have an HTC Sensation. I do have "mobile view" unchecked.

Are there steps that need to happen after you select "desktop"?

Thanks in advance,

Ivan
