I like how I can put PIE fav links on my today screen for quick access. I have Opera set as my default browser, but when I set links using PP they open in PIE instead of Opera. Is there a way to find the individual files of my favs for the Opera browser to use with pocket plus?
Thanks guys!
I have google search bar and windows live search bar on my today screen. But when I search it uses Pocket Internet Explorer instead of Opera Mini 4.
Does any know how to change the registry or install an app that would use opera mini?
Thanks
Use the MortScipt option to set Opera Mini as the default browser.

Thanks for the reply guys but I already tried that script a few days ago and it seemed pretty buggy with google search bar. Mortscript is like an automated macro program you would use on pc. On the ppc, I had a problem where it starts clicking on the search button randomly. I tried the "WM6 OperaMiniAsDefaultBrowser - WithoutSelectionDialog.cab" again today but still the same problem.
can the email client as selected from the touchflo envelope be customised? outlook sucks - i havent found a suitable replacement yet but when i do - since anything is better - i would like to open inbox into that app. defining it as the default mail app doesn't do it
cheers
I would like to see this as well. I like using FlexMail
I would also like to change the default page when you launch Opera by clicking the globe in TouchFLo. Would it be possible to have it go anywhere other than http://device.home?

Yep, I get a page load error everytime I click on the thing....
Agreed. I also like Flexmail. I'd be fine with the TF3D interface, but if I click on the Inbox softkey can I get FlexMail?

For this try entering opera:config in the address bar and change Default URL under User Prefs.

See here for the touchflo home page thing.
I would love to hear if anyone had an answer about the email link though...
Have you tried SSMaPa ? I've used it to change the my TF£D to open SPB Time instead of the built in clock, and to open Pocket Informant instead of calendar.
I believe it should work to open up flexmail etc instead of pocket outlook.
I can't remember the link but if you search here you should find it.
Found it!

I will get screen shots and a review up ASAP!!! I just installed and am messing around with it. There is also a widgets app which comes pre-loaded with a twitter widget, geoquizz, bubbles (game), status widget (ping.fm?), and google translator. You can click to add more and are taken to Widgets.Opera.com. where there is a selection to choose from. Seems Cool.
The scrolling seems to be quicker and smoother. Very nice. From the original post it seems that Turbo is off by default so I am now going in to Opera:Config to turn it on and see if there is a difference in loading.
Note:

I had been testing HSPL this week and havn't had a chance to play in Opera7 much anymore....... I just reinstalled on my newly flashed rom from udk..... So screenshots and such will be coming in the next few days. I'm very busy.

Overall experiance is good. Besides no zoombar. XDA loads faster.
I have experienced several freezes and crashes. It Is BETA though. So that is expected.
I have been able to get the zoombar working in some way. Not to zoom but I can use it to scroll down the page and through items. If intrested I can post the registry tweak for it.
There is a little animation noticed when rotating.
I am able to play video off of Youtube.com but not hulu.com
Screen rotation does not work at the moment. Using G-config as recommended below Works. Will see what registry edits were done using it.
I seems that in the original build Opera Config has more settings under adaptive zoom including one that says "zoom slider maximum" So this may be more tha a registry tweek. IDK
JUNE 7
It seems the zoombar is non-responsive. Could just be a registry tweak.... IDK though. Will try my best with waht little skill I have to look into it.
There is History when you start to type a URL
After a soft reset the Original Opera loads from the Browser Tab now.
Opera will not launch from Browser Tab after install and Bookmarks are not transfered. The original Opera Browser is still there and is not over writen though.
Just installed it and works great. Pages loads much faster and more smooth, turning the turbo mode didn't notice anything spectacular. Confirmed the ZOOM scroll bar does not work with the beta version. Hope its just a registry tweak or something.
Cheers,
Hi!
Hopefully HTC will release either a ROM upgrade or cab package that integrates opera 9.7 into TouchFlo. A cab package is maybe more likely at this beta stage.

Anybody manage to get the screen rotation working?
Screen roatation doesn't work as well...
Other than screen rotation, i am also having problem with suspending the device with opera 9.7 running.
I'm interested to see if someone can solve these issues too... other than that, it's faster and generally better.
cant read a page w/o to zoom in, but for the rest it is faster and sleeker
have tryed 9.7b1.
The page rendering is pretty fast,
but some pages are shown not correct.
to add rotation use G-Config
I, have tryed to enabling zooming with Advanced Config,
but the result was that the zoombar now scrolls thru the links.
Silly question guys... If I install the new opera, what will happen with the built in version? Will it be replaced or installed as a separate app?

No the original build stays in tact.
Some new notes on first post. Help is needed to enable zoombar if anyone knows. I got the zoombar working to scroll the page in opera.
I have installed beta 9.7 but it became the default browser. I was not happy about it so I uninstalled it. now links from mail are opened in IE instead of the pre-installed Opera. Is it supposed to do that or is there a way to get Opera back as default?

It installed as default for me as well. i don't know the specific registry edit but if you search the forums you can find it. Search for something like "setting Opera as default browser"

Neither of them show the video sorry.... According to Opera No flash plugin is included with this Beta. So mebe later on it will but at the moment no...
From their site:
* Opera Turbo in Opera Mobile is still a preview-feature;
o Downloads don't work while Opera Turbo is enabled.
o Some settings (such as toggle on/off images) do not apply when Opera Turbo is enabled.
* On older WM 5.0 Devices with 480x800 resolution, switching between portrait and landscape may cause display errors. This is due to lack of support for this resolution in early versions of Microsoft's driver.
* Some input method editors are known not to work well with Opera because they do not comply with Microsoft's SIP and/or IME standard. When such an editor is detected by Opera, Opera will use a known (default) input method instead. An exception is EzInput v1.5, where the phone keypad and compact QUERTY, ABC mode doesn't work, but the rest of the modes work fine. We recommend upgrading to EzInput v2.0 to avoid this.
* Only support for FlashLite 3.x. No Flash plugin included.

Zoombar
nice that you figured out how to scroll now with the zoombar. Can you please share your knowledge?
And does anybody knows how to get this zoombar working again?
After installation the zoombar is not working anymore at the 9.5 and the 9.7beta version.
The 9.5 version is still on the phone as it comes with the rom.
Does anybody knows hot to change the Manila"Internet" tab from 9.5 to 9.7 beta
Thanks for you help,

Flash works just fine with Opera 9.7b1, but check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544770

So fast....

Question: is it possibe to get the multi-touch pinch zoom enabled on this version?
Zooomer doesn't work, because all it does is blowing up a bitmap without scaling it to the new zoom-resolution.
First impression is that compared to the stock Opera browser, this one has worse framerate, ie. it's not smooth at all. Also because the pinch to zoom doesn't work it's pretty much useless now; I can't come up with any reason why to use this as of now.
For starters, it is the first WinMob browser that allows me to view my online paper (volkskrant.nl).
But you are right, if you don't need it you don't have to want it. It will not add too much to you current browser experience. But g..d... this version is fast
I used zoomer to add pinch to zoom function, and had no problems at all, it works perfectly for me, scaling fonts and all the rest.
Mine isn't going in landscape mode thogh.
Does it replace Opera 9.7 or is it a separate application?

but the pinch & zoom is like old opera or like when you add an application that doesn't have p&n of stock and youve got a miniscreen to move around?

It installs as a seperate app. The standard Opera 9.7 is in the Windows folder, this one installs in the Program Files folder under \Opera mobile 10\
You will find links to both Opera's in the start folder. Word of warning though: it will become the standard browser, so when you push the 'open browser' button on the TouchFlo Sense browser tab, it will now open Opera mobile 10 beta.
edit:
It should be possible to add this version to both the Whitelist for rotation (HKCU \ Software \ HTC \ HTCSENSOR \ GSENSOR \ ) and that of the Pinch settings (HKLM \ Software \ HTC \ TouchGL \ Pinch \ ). I tried fiddling with that a bit, but haven't figured out yet how to do this.

thats not a zoom, because it makes a zoom with the resolution standard, not resize of the fonts, so if you make P&Z in opera 10 in a web at 100%, you will not be able to read anything, and text will not be in columns.
I think I spotted a registry setting for pinch and zoom for opera (in something like HKCU\Software\Opera\), but no idea if its just specific to the htc supplied version. Unfortunately im at work so cant test until later. Anyone up for digging through to see if v10 has disabled that option?
I uninstalled Opera 10 and now my default browser is ie. How can I change it back to Opera 9.7?

Not to worry, you can go back into Opera 9.7's settings and reset it as the default browser. Worked fine for me.
Ah nice, hadn't figured that out yet.
I just came from an i8910 (symbian) that had Opera Mobile 10 - to be honest I actually find 9.7 better from the point of view of the UI. I'll stick with what I have...
does this opera 10 beta work with applications on facebook ( that use flash ) ?

Nope it doesent support Flash or anything is the same as old v9.7 but for me SkyFire is far more better than this crap Browser
I have a problem that´s kind of weird with Opera 10 beta 2. When the program is active in background and i try to start the camera, it fails. It say "Cannot load camera" or something like that. But when i shut down opera completely, I can start using the camera again. Someone else with the same problem?
Hope you understand my pretty bad english. Dumb Swede here! haha
Your english is fine, much better than just being able to be understood!
Sorry, can't help with your problem though, would be interested to see whether others are having the same problem though...
