Change search provider

[tomcrook]

Is it possible to change the default search provider? Can't find the option on my 630. Ta.

In WinPhone 8.1 Dev Preview (on my Lumia 1520) :
- Go to SETTINGS >> APPLICATIONS >> Internet Explorer >> Advanced Settings >> scroll down for Default Search Provider (select either BING or GOOGLE).

ONLY place left to change that setting ...

Weirdly I don't have that option although I aren't on the dev preview. Still odd.

Here's your answer Microsoft won't let you set Google as default search on some new Lumias | The Verge

My Portuguese Lumia 930 came with is a UK Country Variant. I couldn't use google as default search provider. But today I installed a Italian CV and now I can.

Other thing I noticed... With the UK rom I could only limit network speed to 3G or 4G. Now, with the Italian rom, I can set it to 2G, 3G and 4G.



So, my sugestion if for you flash an Italian rom (debranded one, of course) into your lumia 630 and voil?
