Google.com/m

[Foo Fighter]

who has google as their default search engine? Well I do. Its in my bookmarks and when I get done I always put it on google when I'm done. But recently its been this crappy google.com/m and its stupid as hell. So I deleted all my cache and cookies and then tried it again, and it still goes into this stupid alternative site. On the page, CLASSIC mode is selected, and everytime i type in www.google.com, it reverts to www.google.com/m.

Any help/ideas? Thanks guys
this stupid alternative site is driving the piss outta me.

It is kinda weird, I put in google.com/m and sometimes it goes to classic and sometimes not. It's on Google's side and cannot be fixed on ours.

When I went to my google bookmark it redirected me to google M.
I tapped the classic link.

Now when I go to google, the url location says M, but I am seeing the classic screen. If you clear your cache it forgets your google M is set to classic so you will have to re tap the classic link.

Did you ever do the "speed up webbrowser" thing? Go to google.com/m and check that the setting marked "format for mobile phone" is not checked.

I am having the same problem for the last 4-5 days and I have tried all kinds of stuff to take me to the classic page and it doesn't do that. Guess its the problem on Google side. I even checked the settings to make sure the optimize the phone browser for faster browsing is set to Off. Somewhere something is wrong.

I do not see that option anywhere can you be more specific?

Go to http://www.google.com/m on your PC/Mac. This worked only on my PC and not on iPhone (I don't know why)

-> Settings

-> Turn off "Format web pages for your phone".

I think this what you are refering to.

I am not sure whether this is causing the problem. I turned it off and it still doesn't work.

Thanks for the response apparently this isn't the solution to this terribly annoying problem. I HATE when sites do this!

Its the problem on Google side I guess, because I was having this problem On and Off in the last couple of weeks and its completely ON now.
