Strange issue with Opera Mobile - Causes 2 Pages to Load?? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

I have a uk Vodafone TP which as Opera Mobile 9.5 build 1938 pre-installed on the phone (no option to un-install).
Whenever i launch the browser (most notibly from the internet tab in TF3D) it launches 2 pages, one for the website (either the the home page which is google.com/pda) or from one of the listed favourites and a blank page.
Any ideas how I stop the blank page from loading? it's not a major issue, just very annoying!
I have tried installing the latest version of Opera but I still get the same issue. If I point the internet tab in the direction of Opera 9.7, it's a laggy as hell and sometime refuses to load. Although independently from TF3D 9.7 seems to work just fine.
Any help would be mucho appreciated.

Check that what pages are set up as your home page, you prolly have 2 pages, just delete the one you don't want.

Thanks for the reply, definately only have one home page

I have seen this before, but I don't know how to fix it. However, you can upgrade your Opera version with one of the 9.5 versions found on this site - that may help (or fix it).

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!

Internet tab not opening Opera 9.5b1

I have the Telus Raphael800 and I searched but could not find any fixes. I have also tried Opera 9.5b2 but it didn't fix it and I HATE the widgets...
The only thing that work in my TF3D internet tab is the Youtub app. The bookmarks and the globe do nothing. They highlight for a moment and then go back to looking pretty.
I would appreciate pointers! Otherwise I'll have to live with making that tab vanish using Diamond TF3d Config... that would make me sad
As a note, with not other browser installed aside from Pocket IE it still doesn't open a browser. Has no one had this problem?
I'm also having a very similar problem. I don't have opera on my phone at all (using IE for now), so the links for internet in portrait and landscape (along with "bookmarks") are broken. I've searched up and down these forums and couldn't find any threads covering this...or maybe i just couldn't find the magic combo of searchwords! anyone able to help? thanks!

Really? I just opened fandango with Opera Mobile 10 with flash support and it looks exactly like it does on my PC!
I have the same problem, skyfire very slow on my HD2 (youtube videos stops even I have a good internet connexion) and my Opera 10 dont work with Flash 3, so what can we do ? and why Opera 10 dont want to accept flash 3 support, THANKS FOR YOUR ANSWERS ...
I have no issues with Opera 10 and most flash sites, so I don't know what that's about, but I have to agree about Skyfire. Lost of people rave about it, but I've found it ugly and slow and very painful to use.
I hope it's not an issue concerning the ROM Artemis v8 i use

if you put in a zip code (U.S. only probably) to find a theater near you, i get a result page that had some bad lines accross the screen. this happens no matter when or where.
same page is displayed correctly in SkyFire, but i dont like how slow Skyfire page scrolling is.
i have the default Opera 9.7. I dont like Opera 10 because it doesnt have pinch zoom and it does the same thing.
i'm sorry, but i just think this is really lame. i mean, I have never had a problem with my previous Android phone. 3 Browsers on the HD2 and none of them can get it right.

[Q] Dolphin Browser HD scrolling

I just emailed Dolphin Browser HD support for a problem I'm having. I figured I might as well post on XDA and see if anyone else has a solution or a decent workaround. I have Googled this problem a bit but have come up empty-handed. Anyways, since I'm lazy/not feeling well, I'll just copy and paste the email I just sent to Dolphin Browser HD support.
-------------------------------
Hi,
I love your browser and it is my default browser on my Nexus S. My phone is NOT rooted and I bought it from Canada's Rogers Wireless. The problem I'm having is that when I go to some sites that as soon as the page for the article finishes loading, I can no longer scroll on that page to actually read the article.
Here's an example article: http://io9.com/5872558/parasitic-flies-turn-bees-into-zombies-before-wiping-them-out-completely
If I copy this URL and post it in Firefox or Opera for Android, the page loads fine and I have no problem scrolling.
If I prevent the page from fully loading, I can scroll. But this usually means pictures and other content won't load (but I'm able to read the article because text always loads first).
If I use the add-on called "Desktop Toggles" to toggle onto desktop mode, the page looks very messed up and I am often not able to read it.
Like I said, I love your browser, but I've had this problem for a long time with previous versions and am just about hitting the breaking point. Is there any way around this problem? Are you working on a fix (as far as I know it's not an uncommon problem)? I'd really rather not switch browsers.
Also, one of the "fixes" that people recommend (I've Googled the problem) is to zoom in or out of the page to enable scrolling. The problem is, for a page such as the example article above, zooming isn't an option as the page is in a mobile format.
I am using Dolphin Browser HD version 7.2.1
Please help/advise.
I've had this problem too, the only fix per se is to reload the page. Sometimes even if it's not a mobile page I can't zoom in/out.
Hello, you can try to use Dolphin Browser HD version 7.3.0 from Android Market. I think the new version will be better. If you also have this problem, you can contact support email: [email protected]
Yeah, I've tried version 7.3.0. I still have the same problem and I emailed support (after they replied to my first email) to tell them so.
Hi, i knew, this thread is pretty Old, but i have exactly the same Problem with my Galaxy Nexus.
I'm in touch with the Support team.
Any advise on this issue?
Uh, i have absolutely no problem with this site and browser combo, jb btw, you sure that ur browser is up to date?
