Does Opera Mini 4.2 sync or save RSS feeds? - General Questions and Answers

I have been using Opera Mini 4.2 for about a year and I could have sworn that my RSS feeds have been syncing from device to device, rom flash to rom flash. I recently tried out Opera Mini 5 which I know doesnt have RSS feed support, and now after reinstalling 4.2 and probably flashing a few roms I cant gain access to my RSS feeds (which had grown quite large).
When I sync 4.2 I get my speeddial and favorites but no RSS.
So I dont know what the deal is, did OM5 overwrite the feeds and they are gone forever or what?

Synching favourites and bookmarks

Hi, I'm currently using an XDAII with WM5, browsing with Firefox 2.0 and using Activesync 4.2
What I'd like to know is how I can bookmark sites in Firefox, then sync those favourites onto my XDA. Activesync only works with IE favourites and, well, I hate using IE.
I'm probably not the only person using Firefox and WM5 Does anyone have any suggestions about how I could go about automatically updating my XDA favourites with Firefox?
i'm interested to know also if there is a plug in for activesyc
I am also interested in an automatic solution.
I exported Firefox bookmarks to IE via html but ActiveSync doesn't sync subfolders!
Had to copy favorites manually...
Any hints?
Thanks,
Eggert

RSS - recommendations?

I installed a baked ROM (1.2) from the forum. Since then I lost my RSS feeds and am looking for a replacement program to sync feeds from the PC to the Touch Pro.
What should I get / use?
TIA
Use RSS HUB
It works fine for me just search for rss hub .cab on google
RSS Hub is good but doesn't cache images offline. If you search on these forums you'll find the name of one that does cache images.
Try the "advanced" version of Rss Hub, News Break. It does catch pictures.

EDIT. Rss Hub works fine for me actually and downloads images for off line viewing. I tried Pocket PC thoughts feed.
RSS... download on PC then sync to Phone
Will RSS-HUB do a PC to Phone sync? I was looking for something that would download on the PC then sync the movies, audio and text from RSS-Feeds, podcasts, etc.
I don't think there is such a program. With WM device center you can synch files but I don 't think RSS is just single files. I don 't know in which format RSS data is stored and if you can synch them.
But why actually do you want this? For not having articles as unread in PPC when you read them on PC? Am i wright?
I strongly recommend using Google Reader, this way you can read it on any of your computers, friends' computers or mobile, and keep everything in sync - you won't read the same thing 2 times.

PC firefox shortcuts/bookmarks to mobile opera?

Hi guys,
I was wondering if it is possible somehow to synchronize my bookmarks from Firefox to Opera in my TD2? I have pretty much bookmarks and do not want to type each adress into my phone. If somebody knows better way I would be thankful.
Try:
Searched for Bookmarks to Opera
Searched for Favorites to Opera
But for me I use Import IE Mobile Favs to opera this way the bookmarks are synced with your PC via activesync, then run the program on the TD2 to transfer them across from PIE to Opera mobile
Note: It won't do folders in folders and I had problems trying to transfer lots (hundreds) of bookmarks.
For you you'd have to export/import them from Firefox first, which is what I had to do, but I use Opera desktop (I'm aware of the irony of having to transfer bookmarks from Opera desktop to IE then to PIE then Opera mobile, but I couldn't get the opera.adr file to transfer (& work) and until Opera get Opera link working on Opera mobile (they've got it on Mini) I'll have to use this crazy way around!!!)

Simplest way to import bookmarks from WM Opera 10?

Just got my Captivate and I'm busy getting it all tweaked. I'm coming from an HTC HD2, and I have a bunch of bookmarks in Opera 10 I'd like to import to Android.
I've tried using Opera Link in Opera Mini to get the bookmarks onto the device. I also used Opera Link to import the bookmarks from the HD2 to the desktop version of Opera... hoping I could import them into Chrome and then somehow sync to Captivate mobile browser (Chrome Mobile?)
Nothing seems to have worked so far. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

How to transfer opera mini bookmarks from one android phone to another?

As the thread title says, does anyone know "How to transfer opera mini bookmarks from one android phone to another?"
Recently I've changed my android phone and I stick to my opera mini 7.6(.40234) browser and now I want to move opera mini bookmarks from the old phone to the new one. I've searched the internet and one of the ideas was to copy the files within the "/data/data/com.opera.mini.android/files/" from the old phone to the new one but it wasn't any good.
Does anyone now how to solve the bookmarks transfer?
quick idea: you should able to use "opera link" to sync all bookmark across your device.

Thank you baudbox, I've tried this one and I have the following situation.
Although I'm using Firefox on my desktop PC, I've installed Opera browser for PC just for this sole purpose. To see how it works, for a test, I've logged in the new phone using opera link and my desktop using Opera browser (no bookmarks by default). The result was the only bookmark it was saved on the new phone was deleted. It seems that the phone's bookmarks were sync to the PC's, meaning the only phone bookmark being erased. I didn't see any way of choosing what to sync according to a selected device.
I don't know how opera link works but I supposed the phone bookmarks were supposed to get copied to PC and then connect the other phone and sync it with PC's bookmarks, using the desktop PC as a "middleman". I'm afraid that if I try to sync the old phone using opera link will erase all the bookmarks in it.
I don't see any feature from operalink screenshoot where you can choose a pull or push to opera servers. So guessing you can't
If you haven't already checked it, take a look at

May be you will find some explanations
Thank you very much baudbox! :good:
