I've had it with Opera, the page sizes constantly change and end up so far zoomed out they are unreadable, there is no way to zoom back in, either by double tapping on screen or using the zoom wheel both do nothing.
IE works well for me. How can I make IE the default browser?

Thanks, I'll try it. I searched in the Raphael forums, but not in Kaiser. We'll see if this works on my Fuze, but I'm skeptical that this will change the default browser in the TF3d Internet tab if this was developed for the Kaiser.
That is what I want to know, how to change the browser int eh TF3D tab, setting the default browser everywhere else seems to be stragiht forward in comparison (which is saying a lot). :>)

Can Opera 9.5 format the text of an website so it fits better to the screen like Netfront does?
I tried Opera 9.405 and Netfront 3.5. So far I would prefer the interface of the Opera browser but Netfront does a very good job when it comes to display text on the screen. No need to scroll horizontally and with the scroll wheel it's a pleasure to read long text passages.
I searched in the about:config if Opera can do that too, but didn't find anything. Unfortunately there are so many options, that I think I just overlooked it. Or is it really a "Netfront only"-Feature?
You just mean
tap and hold > Limit Paragraph On
???
(never worked with Netfront)
Yes, thank you! That's it. Unfortunately it uses less than half of my screen. Where can I change this?
Btw why do you mention "never worked with Netfront"? So far it works for me with Netfront.
I mean that I have personally never worked with the program Netfront
But it makes fully use of my screen with the version which I use... Don't know which settings you need to change, but I use this version:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1977766&postcount=30
Thanks again! With this version it displays it correctly AND there is an uninstaller! Whatever these people have done for modifications they seem to be quiet good. That makes Opera my favourite browser now.
TF3D is good and all but when the keyboard is out the interface is a nightmare to me...
I understand when we slide out keyboard out we usually need to type...
but why would it force us to use just 8 fixed application that we can't even change...
Is there anyway i can change the way TF3D work? Or at least choose the app available when the keyboard is slided out?
I have no solution for you but I just want to agree...
The thing that bothers me most is the fact: When you slide out the keyboard you want to type but all the links on landscape touch flo do not start something to write but actually start other applications. So you need to use the softkey buttons quite a lot until you get to where you can actually type. So I rarely use landscape TF and usually go into the application first where I want to write and then I slide out the keyboard...
agree
i agree to, the landscape mode is not responsive when the keyboard is out..
Has anybody found how you can start to compose a new email from the keyboard yet
There is a registry string under HCU\Software\HTC\Manila called EnableLandscape. It should be TRUE. However if you change it to FALSE, when you slide out the keyboard you still have the portrait TF3D cropped...
It's not a solution ofcourse, but maybe it will leed to something...
This what you actually get:

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,

Use registry editor to add in HKLM\Software\HTC\TouchGL\Pinch\WhiteList Key Opera10
in HKLM\Software\HTC\TouchGL\Pinch\WhiteList\Opera10 add REG_SZ, Name: ProcName Value Opera10-armv4i.exe.
soft reset.
Yes, but it's not true multitouch!
I don't think that there is any known method for enabling true multitouch on opera10
The "pinch to zoom" functionality in Opera 9.7 is actually part of the application, rather than a setting that can be controlled externally. It simply does not exist in v10 (I imagine), and therefore can't be switched on. Using the system style zooming is the only option for this.
Besides, as it was pointed out to me previously, Opera 10 doesn't actually have a smooth zoom. It's just zoomed or not zoomed.
Opera 10 are unstable on mi hd2, it freeze often and i need to restart. Someone now why?

Probably because it's a Beta. I've not heard of this problem before though. It looks really nice. I can't wait till they do a proper release of it.
I fully expect Opera to release a new version in the near future with full pinch zoom supported and the advantages V10 offers. Until then I will just continue to use the supplied version, despite the experience being considerably less satisfying and user-friendly than Safari on even my old 2.5 year old iPhone 2G.
Zoomer
Try zoomer for pitch zoom in all applications..
In order to get pinch to zoom to function in Opera 10, use the app of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589305
Works fine for me! Probably it will also be possible to get Opera to rotate to landscape with this app.
Update: rotation works fine, pinch%zoom works though a bit buggy.
Update 2: using P to Z gives you an extra "window" in thelower middle of the screen that only disappears when you reach normal zooming levels again. A bit annoying!
That's no pinch to zoom, that's blowing up a screen image without rescaling. But anyway, beta 2 is out and nothing is improved in this respect.
How about what they did with Igo8?
Igo8 doesn't come with pinch to zoom but someone has managed to get true pinch to zoom to work in it using a 3rd party .exe app.
is it possible to do the same thing with opera 10?
Opera 10 has multiple zoom levels, in the settings you can choose from 100 to 300%, thats not the problem. The problem is a) that theres no zoom slider in the ui that allows to zoom instantly and b) opera 10 does not regocnize multitouch gestures. I don't know about windows mobile, but I'm pretty sure that that would work on wm: With windows you can send commands to any windows such as scrool down, zoom etc. If the programmer did his job well, the application then does something with that commands. If that is possible with wm, I'm sure that opera did implement it. So the only thing that is required is to writte an app that a) detect that opera is active and that a multitouch gesture has been done and b) send the equivalent zoom command to opera. This is the same way HTC has implemented the zoom slider on the diamond2 and pro2. If somebody would try it, it isn't that hard, I'll do it if i have more time
Not only opera 10 on WM doesnt have any real pinch to zoom option it also doesnt have that option on Opera mini on iphone either! and i have no idea why is that? but my question is! is it possible that someone use some 9.7 version files on 10? to make it work??

Because you still don't understand how Opera Mini works.
Plugin
Opera 10 has Plugin Support on Windows Mobile Phones. So the only way to get that original zoom feeling back is writing a plugin that remodifies Opera.
I still don't understand why they removed that zooming feature from the new Browser version.
Ok, it has that special Textbox scaling which fits a text right into the screen width with a simple double click, but sometimes, this doesnt work properly and multitouch zooming would be a solution.
I hope for a relaunch in the next Opera version.
Hi guys. I want to switch to Opera 10 but i have problem with initial Opera 10 settings to show hole page. In Opera 9.7 by default Virtual Screen Width was 800 and with this setting i was able to read pages in landscape mode without zooming (whit my eagle eye sight
But Opera 10 by default shows hole page (either in landscape or portrait) and it's to small to read..
In other words i want to make opposite of what is talked about in this tread. But i cannot find corresponding registry entries for opera 10?
Help appreciated

Try opera:config and uncheck "Limit Paragraph width" (do not remember exactly the key) In landscape it helps
