Opera mini beta

Hello,
I didnt wanted to keep it to myself this great browser.
This is soo much faster and better, that it is really worth trying.
If you have seen deepfish ill say, it is better than that, and ill say it is better than picsel browser and ill say it is better than anyother browser.
So if you like browsing through your ppc do not forget this little piece of software.

yes coz its in beta, and your phone will have a bad rom.
Coz it doesnt happen to me with nbd(zoki) version install

Doesn't work for me either. It just hangs when trying to load.

No luck on my Jasjam either. Closes by itself or hangs.

I found the Intent Midlet Manager on XDA-Developers.
It normally comes with HTC phones, but the T-mobile MDA is an exception for some reason.

PS- It does work with that program.
Opera Mini 4 is kinda buggy yet and likes to lock up sometimes, but it does a great job of rendering regular webpages for a small screen. Seems alot like the Wii version. The ability to "grab" and scroll through documents and zoom in by clicking is pretty easy. I wish they would put a button for OK on the screen that you enter text (like addresses) though. After you type the address, you'd assume you could hit enter, but it just jumps to the next line. You have to push the menu button in the lower right and chose OK.
I can't wait for this to be finished. I wish they'd make a Windows Mobile version of this without Java. This is much better than Opera Mobile (well except stability)

Its working fine on my 6800 for the last few days. No hangups at all. Does anyone know how to get a direct shortcut to the opera mini beta?
Something with executing the java program with command line functions, or am I way off?

Guys and gals, make sure you follow my articles & guides. I've published a LOT of info on both the 3.x and the 4.0beta versions of Opera Mini in both my Pocket PC and Smartphone Web Browsing Bibles.

Intent MM although superior, crashes current Mini beta quite often. I found out that Esmertec MM works, but doesn't really support the touchscreen well and it's not as fluid.
I do not recommend changing to Esmertec, as new beta is coming this Thursday and it probably has better support for Intent.

Are you wanting a shortcut where you can execute opera mini from the Today screen? If you have the extended version of Battery Status, or other launch programs, a shortcut can be made from these.

You can also activate this midlet by using your programmed voice. PM me if you don't know how and you'd want this...

Hi,

I don't have the beta version, so I can't answer your ? I'm assuming it being beta probably supports flash like its big brother, and should feed videos from web pages.

Better than picsel, are you kidding ??
Opera mini can't even support a touch screen, it's just patethic and also no designed for pocket pc at all, it's for normal java phones.

Where did you get that idea? Opera mini is fully controllable with touch if the midlet manager supports it. Intent MM does.
Onscreen buttons -check
Dragging -check
Tap to zoom -check

Nope, it doesn't suppoer Flash. See my related reviews / the Web Browser Bible.

Yes, all of the current midlet managers support both link clicking / focus traversing and arbitrary scrolling using the scrollbar.

Opera 9.5 issues: zoom and Links

Hello guys,
I have been away for some time now, but I would like to know if any of you found any solution for these 2 problems with opera 9.5 and our devices:
1st: the scroll wheel zoom feature: In my device spinning the wheel just makes me pan horizontally, doesn't matter what i do or configure. I made some searches but found nothing about it.
2nd: linking problem: with opera 8.X i could select the browser to act as "default". Therefore, whenever I opened a link from my mail application (for example), opera handled it. Now, with 9.5, only Internet explorer handles my links.
Can anyone give me a clue?
Thanks!

I don't thjnk there is currently a fix for the zoom issue.
To set up Opera as the default, go to:
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shell/Rai/:MSPIE
Change value 1 to OperaL.exe

Just Perfect bro!
Thanks a lot!
To bad we don't have and solution for zooming with the scrool. I have read somewhere here that one of udk's roms did that!
Cheers

I have just downloaded and installed opera mobile 9.5 build 1409.
It's all right but I realized that there are two problems not solved:
1. It is impossible to use a different type systems but the standard one (you have to use stylus).
2. opera mobile 9.5 is not syncronizable with Opera 9.51 for desktop.
Can anyone tell me something about?
Is it possible that the previous release run You Tube videos and this one doesn't?
Thanks & Bye.

Touch Pro - Replacing ROM Opera

I just got a Verizon Touch Pro and I'm trying replace my ROM Opera Mobile (9.5b2392) with the newest Opera Mobile from their website (9.51b2723).
I installed the new version on to the device memory.
It looks a lot nicer and seems faster.
I have the new version set to default (the old version doesn't have that option).
When I use a program that has links and opens the system default browser when clicked, upon initially opening a program (say profimail, but it's not only with that program), it opens up the old opera when I click a link. If I close the old opera, click the link again, it opens up the new opera. If I close the program, go back in and click a link, I get the old opera again.
Any ideas? I hoping there's someway to just totally disable the ROM Opera Mobile.
The ROM Opera is also in programs too, not sure if there's a way to remove it from there, but I guess I could live with that.

Delete new Opera.
Get new Opera's cab.
Install new Opera.
It should replace old Opera.

You need to try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401643

That's what I did.
I just uninstalled new opera from the device, then reinstalled onto the storage card and now it appears to be working as intended.
Should it have worked installed to the device? Looks like it was conflicting that way somehow.
Only problems left are that I can't get rid of the old icon in programs....and that it doesn't go landscape when I rotate the device, only when the keyboard is open. The old Opera did rotate along with the device.
Was the ROM Opera some special build from Verizon that used the accelerometer?
Also, the browser link in TouchFlo3D still opens the old Opera. Any way to change that?

Any ideas on how to get the new Opera to use the accelerometer? Is that possible?

I replied to your howardforums thread. I got it to work.
Basically you need to install two programs, they are listed here
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?p=11993391#post11993391
The Gyrator 2 to use the accelerometer
and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777
to replace the TF3D operal.exe with the new one.

After some work, I got both working.
That's great. Thanks!

Getting Opera 9.7 back without hardreset

Hello,
I installed Opera 10 Beta 1, which totally sucks for me. I cannot browse a site, because it just freezes.
Do anyone know how to get the old original back, without hard-reseting? I think it was 9.7 or something, but I cannot find it, on Opera's site.
Thanks.

On my device Opera 10 install itself into a new folder and I could use Opera 9 and 10 simultaneously. Uninstall Opera10 via Start>Settings>Remove Application should revert your device to the "original " state. If IE is now your default browser you can set it back to Opera 9 with this cab.

That's right:
Uninstall Opera 10, the old one is still on your device... (In my case, dutch original: rom 9.5)
It might not be your default browser anymore (as I experienced) but you can still find it in your programs list...

I have the solution
I've done some digging and found a solution!
Why would you want to change back to 9.7? Because the browser works better than Opera 10, as 10 is just a Beta..
1. Uninstall Opera 10 Beta from Start / Setting / System / Remove Programs
2. Download Opera 9.7 from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=R148IQ5V
3. Enable Zoombar

That worked fine for me. G-sensor is working, "Launch Browser" works, and URL's from Twitter tab is working

Thanks
It's was really helpful!

Best app for browsing the internet on the TG01

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.
