Hi i just installed the new opera beta with gears and i love it. Only problem is that since it installs it in, a different folder none of my favorites worked with the new opera beta. is there a way i can change it so that the internet tab recognizes the new opera beta with gears instead of my old version? Also in landscape the web search icon and bookmarks icon also recognizes old version.

Hi guys, need some more help again.
How do I import the WMP playlist on my PC to my HTC Touch Pro running WM 6.1?? No matter what i do, the Windows Media Player on the phone just doens't detect the playlist at all. What I did was, simply copy & paste the playlist created on my PC to my phone, then I load up Windows Media Player on my phone and tried to find and locate the playlist, but it doesn't show up.
2nd problem is, I want to import all my Opera bookmarks from my PC to the phone. I know the default location for the Opera folder is here:
main memory/Windows/Opera9
and the bookmark is saved as opera6.adr. I'm familliar with all this as I use Opera on the PC for a long time already. So, I imported the bookmark from my PC to Windows/Opera9 and then load up Opera on the phone and chose "Favourites", and sure enough my boomarks showed up but not all of it. In fact, it's kinda screwd up, it shows the 4 of the same folder with the same content, and the other folders and bookmarks aren't there.
I.e, it doesn't show all my bookmarks, barely all of them actually, only a few.
BTW i have also looked at this page here and did everything but still the same problem:

Don't want to make another topic so i'll just append my new problem here, since my phone is in chinese, most of the apps are in chinese as well.
I want to keep the phone in chinese but use most apps in english. For most 3rd party apps, they are installed in english OR they have the option to let you choose what language to install as, which is great.
BUT, for Google Maps, it doesn't have the option and when i installed it, it's in chinese.......i downloaded from the Google Maps homepage which is english but it just shows up as chinese on my phone.....
is there a way to fix this? Maybe changing the registry code so that it shows english?? I think some 3rd party apps will automatically set the language according to the phone's default language.......that's probably why...
With Opera Mobile 9 will automatically cravate favorite images after viewing the page you want.
You can simulate something with Opera Mobile 10, since it is not supported?
You can manually add thumbnails to bookmarks on the internet page (I can't remember where they're stored - someone will be able to advise you), but it's a pain, and you can't add new shortcuts to bookmarks that you've made in Opera 10 - only 9.7 and IE.
I personally got rid of the internet tab and just put Opera in the top row of my main page of quicklinks, so it's available from my home tab. Since it starts up with the "start grid" (unless configured otherwise), it's equally as good as the shortcuts on the opera tab.
Just a suggestion.

Is there a way to fix the web snapshot for the Internet thumbnail section if you remove one from the windows/temp folder by mistake. Because now it won't take a thumbnail web snapshot if I add to visual bookmarks

I deleted the one i had for BBC Football as i didnt like they image and now i cannot get an image to display for that favourite.......is there a register entry or something i need to clear to restore thing?
i think i might have found a way...place your favourite in internet tab, then, in order to have thumbnails, open pocket internet explorer, go to favorites and open web pages (the one placed on internet tab) and let them full load. if you close pie at this point you can see thumbnails in internet tab, tap on them and they will be opened with setted default browser, opera 10 in this case

I think I figured it out about this bookmark thing. I have notice in opera 9.7 that the little symbol next to web address that looks like a box with lines in it is all mess up. Now I don't know what that symbol represents but I think by fixing this it will fix the problem.
I have installed Opera 10. How do I get to add favourites in the favourites menu in Sense? Tried adding bookmarks in IE Favourites, but that didn't help.

Anyone who can help with this issue?
Open the Bookmark-URL in Internetexplorer and let the page be loaded fully. Then close Explorer and preview will be showed. Works not on all pages but most of them
Good luck
This is how I did it.
This worked on my Miri ROM. When I click on a blank internet tab shortcut it takes me to the Opera 9.7 bookmarks even after making Opera 10 my default. I had to switch back to 9.7 as default and set all of the sense tab shortcuts with images generated.
When you do this it creates a number of image files in the Windows/Thumbnail sub-directory with long coded names. It also creates an .icn file in Windows/Opera9/profile/Images, named as the www url name of the shortcut.
You then switch back to Opera 10 as default and Opers 10 uses the page image shortcuts. You can edit the Windows/Thumbnail images and save the new image with the same name and you will get the new thumbnail image directed to the same url it was originally associated with.
Set 9.7 as default in Settings/Advanced. You need to re-install 10 to set as default as it only asks on install.
The long coded names change with each assigned url. I do not know how they are generated or how they relate to the .icn files. If this process was known it might be possible to change the shortcuts without reverting back.
If your original default browser was IE you may have to do the same, but roll back to IE not 9.7.
I can only say this worked on the Miri ROM.
Opera Mobile 10 has a big advantage, it can sync bookmarks, speed dial icons and history with any Opera Link enabled desktop Opera. It's enough to use a portable version, that can import IE favorites as well. On top of that the password file (wand.dat) is also compatible.
I find it much more convenient to manage this data on my PC and then sync it to the PDA.
Ok, I'm on the next ROM flash 4.1 first starting with, as suggested by this site developer, with 2.2 in the ROM installing section.
PRO:
Full Google Market after some work, please review the Youtube video on this if the written instructions on this site does not work.
1. Go to settings, applications, system applications, market-force stop and clear cache.
2. Go to Google services framework--force stop clear data then reboot a couple of times.
4.1 improves on the quickness and stability of 2.4 which I migrated to after having issues with 2.2 and 2.4. Mainly slow scrolling issues and crappy browser, calendar and contacts. Plus, lack of a weather feature and would not recognize .wma files.
Cons:
I'm experiencing some Wifi issues. Wifi is on and appearing to receive, connected to my network yet unable to access the internet. The fix:
1. Go to settings, Wifi and settings, instead of choosing from a scanned network input my own SSID and encryption code.
2. Choosing never for under the advanced settings, wifi sleep policy from the drop down list.
I'm only giving my account so those choosing from the various ROMs will have an idea what they may be up against. Also, some bluetooth issues which I am still troubleshooting. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
Biggest issue is they added in 4.1 usb debugging as the first option and with auto connection whether or not you have it checked in settings. Big problem for side loading. It has crashed my laptop Windows 7 (64) at least 7 times. Attempted to input the code in the C:/ prompt however that did not fix the problem. Anyone, any suggestions?
What worked in 4.1 without issue:
Android Market (full)
Adobe Flash 10.1
Adobe Reader
Android System Info
Andromax
Antivirus
Auto Killer
Bluetooth File Transfer
Camera
Cleanoid
Contacts
Desktop Labels
Dictionary
Documents to Go
EasyShare
Facebook
Gallery (found original version called Gallery Invoker in Android Market)
Gmail
Google Maps
Launchpro (with 7 homescreens running in a rotating cube, flawlessly with labels)
Navigation
Photoshop Mobile
ROM Manager
Task List
The Weather Channel (the weather feature was removed from the ROM)
Titanium Backup
TouchRecalibration (the browser fixed and fluid, bookmark to desktop is back)
tv.com (works extremely well)
Twitter
Wikidroid
Winamp
Yellowbook (not yellow pages but both work, but yellowbook is awesome giving you a street view of what you are searching for).
Re: 7 Homescreens--Productivity, Utilities & Tweaks, News & Resources, Communications, Entertainment, Quick Web Launch (for my favorite bookmarks from my browser) and Executive Assistant (which loads all my email accounts, social networking, RSS feeds--all on one screen. I can scroll up and down and see what has come in at a glance.)
Hi guys,
I started using Chrome some years back on my desktop system. There I have all my bookmarks arranged as folders inside my bookmarks bar.
So far so good. Now on Chrome Android these bookmarks show up as desktop bookmarks in a folder "bookmarks bar".
I have two Android devices:
Nexus 6 --> Everything is fine, I use my desktop bookmark bar and when I close and reopen Chrome it opens the last bookmark page I used - fine.
Sony Z3 Tablet Compact --> I use my desktop bookmark bar and when I close and reopen it ALWAYS opens some stupid list of all bookmarks, unsorted, one huge list. I always have to navigate manually back to desktop bookmark bar bookmarks, every time I restart the browser. This is really annoying.
Uninstalled Chrome, cleared data and cache, but all to no avail.
Anybody any idea on how to fix this? Must be sth do do with Sony's ROM as all the other phones and tablets I have and had do not have that problem.
Thanks,
terry
