set opera as system browser - General Questions and Answers

I've searched the forums, but can't find an answer; please help:
How can I change opera to be the system level browser? M2D opens it up fine, but if I click on a link in either an email, another program, or elsewhere, it opens in IE. I would like the links in emails, etc. to open in opera. How can I do this?
I'm using a touch cruise, WM 6.1, and whatever recent opera build came with my rom (C_shekhar's latest with footprints).
Thanks to everyone who cruises Q&A to help us dummies out!

how do i set Opera Mini as default web browser?

as in, when i click on a link in google maps, i want it to browse with opera mini and NOT PIE
side question, whats the diff between opera mini and the full opera mobile?
other than the fact that i need to pay
thanks
Did you search or RTFM???
Launch Opera, then Menu-Tools-Settings-Misc-and place a check mark next to Set Opera as Default. Not too hard to do.
As far as your second question is concerned, I'd suggest www.opera.com.
Opera mini isn't as easy as that.

So sorry. I'm using Opera 8.65 for Windows Mobile. It was real easy to make it my default browser. I still think Searching is a good idea.
Sorry about the misunderstanding
There is Opera MINI and Opera MOBILE
for mobile i know how to set cuz it's an exe file
but since MINI is a java base file and requires a midlet, i had to ask for more advice on how to do it
and as i suspected
it's more complicated than i thought
Thanks for trying to help, though, kimtyson

Desperate for a good Browser HELP PLEASE

Hi
Really looking for a GOOD SMARTPHONE BROWSER which can cave images and files, PIE is not capable of this, can somebody suggest which browser can do this? I tried Installing Opera on my VOX but i get double menu and action BAR's not sure which browser is capable of doing this?
thanks
Opera Mobile 8.65 works great on the VOX... I'm using it myself. I believe you tried the 9.5 leaked beta?
I think when 9.5 final is released for smartphones it'll really be an amazing browser...
hi can you tell me where did you get the opera 8.5? if you can upload it somewhere and i can download it, opera is capable of saving images??
thanks
Yes it can save images and any files. I downloaded Opera from the official site.
I've been an avid Opera user for many years, almost when it first came out in a floppy disk, but I have to say that Opera Mobile really stinks. I use Opera Mini running in jBed as it is so much better.
Yeah the latest Opera Mini is the best portable browser available right now IMO
I have a keygen for it, but.... some virus inside
howerver, it does works
you can get the Opera Mobile 8.65 at http://www.opera.com/products/mobile/products/
Hikey, please don't post warez, cracks or keygens. It's against the board rules.
thanks a lot guys for the response opera solved mt problem

How to register Opera Mini as the default browser?

I have searched the whole forum and it seems this question hasn't been posted yet.
How to register Opera Mini as the default browser?
I've seen someone made a shorcut to launch Opera Mini without the need to open Java first. I've tried to use SKTools to at least lauch urls and htmls to Opera Mini but It didn't workout since it can only register exe files and not shorcuts.
Does anyone have an idea? Any help is greatly appreciated!
[EDITED]: Sorry guys. I guess I was just searching the wrong words. There is a lot of information inside the forum regards using Opera Mini as the system level default browser. I just wanted to do the same thing without MortScript.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
if you are using 4.0 or 4.1 there is a c++ app that does the job for me (you can link to the app using 3rd party so can open opera mini without having to use java
the app is available in the list of software in the link on my signature (yes it works for wm6 as well as 5)
hope this helps

Hi Chris,
thanks for the feedback. I tried the Opera Signed and Opera as Default Browser cabs on the email on your signature.
Both failed to work. I'm running the latest jbed 2008.02.22 v.3.1 but on my SD Card and the latest Opera v.4.1 (not the beta). Do you believe that the patches are not working because Jbeb is on the Card?
Thanks again for all the support!

Getting Opera Mini Under Internet Tab??

Hey guys, sorry for being a noob- I had a quick question....
I downloaded opera mini because opera mobile sucked, but I was wondering if there was a way to make it more accessible and have it open up instead of opera when I go over to internet and tap "launch browser"... I appreciate the help.
Fellow noobs also want to know!

You might be able to link it like IT did in this thread with Youtube player. Follow his directions on adding another program.
Thanks! I would still love to have the globe open opera mini but this is almost as good.
what i did is just add opera mini to the start menu. so now its just 2 touches away, no matter where i am

AJAX on Opera Browser

Hi, I' m an happy (?) user of htc touch pro unbranded.
I would like to ask a question: it is possible to make the opera "OEM" on htc support AJAX?
Opera 9.5 beta that you can download from the site can, so I thought someone already did it work on the "OEM" version too. I upgraded to 2808 and it supports flash too, but not ajax that is a feature it should.
Sorry if someone already solved this thing but I haven' t found anything with search function. And sorry for my awful english.
alessio
AJAX support is somewhat hit-or-miss. On some sites it works (such as dropbox), on other sites it doesn't (gmail/gmaps).
It probably depends on exactly what kind of AJAX you're talking about (data transaction or client-side effects) and how Opera handles any errors in the code.
You may also want to upgrade to a newer version such as 9.5 build 15202 (although the latest versions may not support Flash).
Well, before format i installed opera from the site and it loaded the site (www.erepublik.com) correctly. Now I upgraded the "OEM" version to the same build and it does not load correctly that site.
Mmm... how can I see what is the latest version, and how can I upgrade it?
P. S.: Doesn' t mind for the flash, it is only a bad thing with that keyboard popping...
Go to address opera:about to check the Opera version.
If you want to ugprade, search for "Opera" in the Development and Hacking forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260
To make it easier to find, do an Advanced Search, and choose to "Search titles only".
Be sure to pick the VGA version for your Touch Pro.
Thank you a lot!
