Now all that is needed to simplify the steps is one developer to write a script that starts after every reboot which first copies back the original grob to /usr/bin/ and then replacing it with the modified grob.

can you try this and see if it works: http://db.tt/Id3bSXw6
i havent had the time to try it myself first so pls backup before trying it on
Edit: make sure to rename the file to just "grob" before replacing it using ssh or terminal.

Sorry for bringing up a dated thread but I am experiencing funny behavior while browsing wikipedia using iOS user agent where the site appears to stretch beyond the screen width and of course i wont be a problem if i can pinch to zoom on mobile sites.
just wondering if anyone experiences this, probably due to the iphone resolution is higher and wikipedia was optimised for this or was it just my end that experienced this. Thanks

Still no nice way to change user agent on closed PR1.3 device, is there...?
Just tried to change UA on my wife's N9 which is not in open mode, and I ran into no end of trouble... got the device locked up but of course that is no problem to fix.. anyway the grob changing is a no-no-solution, imagine if you have to boot the device for some reason while on the road and it ends up locked again
There would be hell to pay, literally!

@juiceme try tweak M on N9QuickTweak's latest version.
Easier, but still requires inception or open mode

Will it work in a reboot, not MALFfing the device?
How is it implemented, does it refhashlist the grob file or copy original back for boot?
Anyway, I found a solution of sorts, I installed fennec in her device and told to use that for problematic sites.

refhashlist as you know contains the shasum's of many system files including grob...N9QTweak using inception for normal mode users simply uses a script called refhashlist.pl to sign the refhashlist with the new shasum of the modified grob so no MALF as long as you wait for the tweak to finish its process; it can take upto 5 minutes for the signing to complete...
Once refhashlist is signed the changes stick till you flash the device...The tweak in N9QTweak is actually from this thread so you can refer to the thread for further info too
Fennec in all honesty is very slow and a changed UA at least guarantees a better mobile browser experience in the stock browser
Btw if you use a changed UA try iOS instead of Android as iOS allows YouTube playback
