When i browse some sites come up as mobile when they shouldn't
example... Myspace.com always comes up as mobile... And mobile view is off
any help? Cuz skyfire kills my battery much
there's some tweaks around on the forum somewhere to disable that. do some more searching adn you should be able to. it involves going into the about:config settings
Anyone have any tweaks that SPEED UP opera mobile? I use a combo of opera mini (FASTEST BROWSER ON THE FUZE!), skyfire, iris and opera mobile. it's ANNOYINg. if only opera mobile were as fast as mini...sigh

What's the fastest browser you've ever used for WM? I'm not asking what's overall the best, only which one is the fastest. Thanks..
Since Opera Mini 4.1 is a proxy based browser I believe it's the fastest ever, I haven't tried Skyfire though so I'm not completely sure...
Fastest and Best - OPERA MINI!!!!!!

Hey dudes,
im running wm6.5 on my Omnia i900. And im a little bit angry of the behaviour of Opera and IE. Opera is still better than ie, but its slow too, and only can handle three tabs. Are there alternatives?
Greets,
Snooops
Wait Opera mobile 9.7, should be ready soon
Opera mobile can handle more than 3 tabs.
Go to opera:config
Search tabs
Change setting to whatever you like (9 is the max my phone can do and still run smoothly)

Welcome to the forum
My vote goes for Opera Mobile definetly!
Check here to find out about other versions of Opera Mobile
Mine works smooth and can open more tabs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486502
if you want fast,less memory usage,support all flash format.you better try this. --> www.skyfire.com .i agree Opera is the best but it cannot open all flash format and same as the IE 6.they only support youtube flash and .swf .Skyfire is mostlike PC browser.
Some Flash Webpage that i tested can run on Skyfire but cannot on Opera and IE.Test and you can see the deferent.
www.friendster.com/ <-- you need an account to view (you can see the flash running with sound) example www.friendster.com/zurra1989
www.pornhub.com <-- a porn site that need higher flash to view.same as youtube.but cannot view using opera n IE.
try Opera mini...light & fast!
I use Iris full time now.
i know it was just announced but has anybody gotten the app yet? its supposed to be going out to carriers and oem's, not us consumers(yet). im hopoing someone leaks it quick! or does someone already have it? if so please share
really? were? site? >_> I DONT BELIVE YOU lol
http://www.androidcentral.com/opear-mobile-available-android-you-cant-have-it-yet
somebody has to leak it 1!!!1
apparently chances of that are low... but!!! now theyve announced that opera mini 5 is coming soon!!! anybody have that yet??
I was using Opera Mini 5 beta on WM6.1 and it was good, but it felt a bit too mobile. Every page I went on was loading in mobile mode, an sites with flash never loaded properly for me. I had a slide out keyboard, and I am sure it was a beta issue, but it was forcing me use the on screen keyboard. It was decent, but on a 2.8in screen felt very cramped. Opera 10 beta on the other hand loaded a bit slower to start up and web page loading was noticeably slower. However, web pages loaded more normal for me. That was on WM6.1 on a decently speedy device, on Android things could be a whole different story.
well i think either one, will be the best browser for android so far. mainly i like it because of that amazing speed in loading pages! even 4.2 is fast and i'd use that except the UI is horrible...
Opera mini5 (beta) was the best browser while I was using winmobile devices!
The interface was clever, the way it handled tabs was genius, it was sooo damn fast and the fact that you could go back in your browsing history without the browser reloading the page from the scratch was damn useful. I so hate that on the android browser (well, on actual browsers in general).
I'm really looking forward to the android-version but I'm afraid it won't support the hardware-keyboard of my G1 =(
So, is there any compelling reason to use Opera Mobile 10 over the Android browser? Will HTC flash work with Mobile 10? I can see a reason to use Mini 5 as that is a fast browser, and is fairly light. However, I can't see any reason to use Mobile 10 other than preference.
Well, if Opera 10 should support a double-tap to zoom feature I will for sure use it over the android one. I absolutely dont like those 2 zooming buttons floating all over the content which only appear once I start scrolling.

Sorry not to get ot, but we took care of the stock browser a long time ago, check it out: WWW.forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551119
To the op, this does look like it might be pretty nice, how ever always been happy with the modded stock, or a hero browser. Any idea on what phone is gonna have this as oem firest?
Opera 10 for android looks amazing. if you watch the video preview of it. Right now the best browser for android is the Dolphin Browser though. .. ooh and windows mobile people.. Skyfire is the only way to go.
Which video are you referring to?
Maybe I am not really getting it but what advantage does Opera Mobile have over the Android browser? I loved Opera on my WM device and I can understand using it based on preference. However, with the Android browser working the way it does, isn't it a bit redundant? Or again maybe I am not getting it?

The browser has better support for CSS/HTML/JavaScript...
You can see the differences between the browsers on:
http://www.quirksmode.org/m/css.html
and
http://www.quirksmode.org/m/table.html
Please note that the Nokia E66 browser matches the new Opera 10 beta the most. The other version is 9.5 which is already a year old. I'm really waiting for a Opera 10 release on android, since the android browser has some shortcomings when you want to create mobile websites (I shall spare you the details).
I guess I will have to try it out when it comes outs to see the differences. It's to bad they don't add the proxy features of Opera Mini on Mobile.
is it out yet?! :[

its the speed!!! look do this
go to the market and download the current opera mini 4.2
once installed get a timer or something and go to any website(including this one if you want, just make sure you go to exactly the same page)
time it
now go to the same page with the android browser.
you should see a HUGE speed difference. im not exactly sure how opera does this, but i heard once it has something to do with a compression method that opera uses that makes pages load very quickly!
all in all, i have no idea how opera does it, i just know that its FAST. and definitely faster than the android browser. i really dont care that its opera i just care abuot that speeeeeed!
Yes, I agree about Opera Mini, but I am referring to Opera Mobile.

well supposedly also opera mini is made for any mobile phone? i think. but opera mobile is made spcifically for more advanced smartphones. like you cant use opera mobile on some cheapy flip phone. but you probably could use opera mini on it. i THINK. im probably wrong or idk i dont really care i just want a better browser than the slow android one. either that or the faster 3g from tmobile.. but i think even then the browser would still be slow..
Having tried alot of different browsers through the span of my cell phones I believe Opera Mini is the fastest but it may have to do with the mobile view of the websites.
Dolphin is also very good.. I like that its theme able and its relatively fast.
I'm also anxious in the official release of Opera Mobile 10... it will have other features and will be most likely fix the problem of opera mini loading pages as mobile and not full version as in a desktop or laptop would display.
Hi, what is the best app (performance and compatibility) for browsing the internet "on the TG01"?

Well I've tested a few and it's gotta be Opera 10. It does everything flash wise (well as far as flash goes on phones), but the thing which annoys me is the way you can't get word suggestions on it so it kinda sucks in that way so it's not the perfect app for me, but the only one that does everything else.
Skyfire is good, but can't seem to get reliable flash support in my opinion.
Btw, does your question include the running of java applets?
Are you sure about word suggestions? I had the same problem with my first Opera 10 browser, because I had to use their keyboard ... but I installed the newest version, and now I was able to use my own keyboards ... running WM6.1

I'm positive. If I use IE, everything is fine, I can get word prediction suggestions and also can press enter instead of having to click search eg.
in google, but in opera 10, nothing, no word prediction suggestions and no hotkey support like enter. Any (word) suggestions? Would really appreciate it as I love Opera and I use it as my primary browser. Because of this problem, I'm thinking of changing to another browser such as skyfire, but would prefer opera though.

I use HTC Build Opera Mobile 9.7
Very battery friendly, uses less RAM. And imho faster than Opera 10.
It integrates with other HTC apps, i.e - youtube,
for EDGE, use Opera Mini
I have the Net Front Browser 2009 from a Japanese T-01A if you want it.
No .cab, just copy the files to your Windows folder.
No flash but it's extremely fast, good quality and very easy on the battery.
All menus display in English if on an English rom.

What is in your opinion, or a proven fact, the fastest browser for an android phone?
Also JW in anyone knows, how do I switch between 3g and 4g with my HTC snesation, i cannot find the setting
There is no switch. You're getting really fast 3g that T-mobile labels as 4g.
Probably Opera Mobile... Although, the stock MIUI, and CM Browser have been VERY fast for me...
I think Opera browser is the fastest one on the Android phones
Agree Opera Mobile FTW

I do believe that mozilla firefox is out. may be onofficial but if you used to their inteface that may be of interest
+1 to Opera. And you can always swich Opera Turbo ON on slow network connections or to save data transfer.
As far as I see Opera Mobile (not mini) is the fastest browser on my GT-i5500 with CM7.1
opera mobile indeed i also think netfront life browser
i use the xscope..THIS is simple ans fast..
