    Description

      Javascript function called from QML is:

      function sendRequest(request) {
      var xhr2 = new XMLHttpRequest;
      xhr2.open("GET", request);

      if(xhr2.readyState == XMLHttpRequest.OPENED)

      { xhr2.setRequestHeader('User-Agent','MyClient'); }

      xhr2.send();
      }

      Sniffing network traffic shows User-Agent stays at "Mozilla/5.0 (Nokia; Qt; MeeGo)\r\n".

      Implementing a custom QNetworkAccessManager and setting the header there solves the problem, but it should be doable also like described above.
