Accessing Google Buzz Web App in Nokia N900

Arjun Parsi — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 12:28:20 +0000

After the launch of Google Buzz I was very excited to use it on my Nokia N900. And found that it does not support N900 browser. I was wondering why it doesn’t support when the N900 browser is capable of more than an Android browser can do. So I tried changing the User Agent of my N900 browser to Android User Agent and it worked

Steps to follow

Install Hide User Agent from Application Manager
Go to Control Panel and open Hide User Agent
Set user agent to
Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.1; en-us; dream) AppleWebKit/525.10+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0.4 Mobile Safari/523.12.2
Click on the Set
Then the browser will be restarted
Now go to the browser, open http://buzz.google.com

Start buzzing from your N900
