It is not easy to uninstall opera, you need to do something with the regristry

Hi All,
I've tried searching and surprisingly, I can't find the answer....
Does anyone know how to start up a java applet without having to boot into the midlet manager first?
ie. I have opera mini installed in the Java Midlet Manager. I want to create a shortcut so I can launch opera mini without having to start the midlet manager, and then launching opera mini from there.
Thanks,
Nobody knows? this seriously can't be...

Holy crap, that's perfect! Thank you!
Hello,
I ahve posted a couple of times on here asking how I can update Opera Mobile on my Touch Pro to the latest version and the responses I got were a bit confusing.
Please can someone give me simple step by step instructions how how to upgrade Opera Mobile to the latest version and give me a link to someone that has the correct and working update files so when I new version comes out I can easily upgrade without posting on here asking where the upgrade files are.
Also, how do you set Opera mobile to be the default browser as some programs still open links in PIE which is not what I want.
Thanks
Regards,
Neil
Go to opera.com. Download the latest version. Install the cab. Use the search function next time.
well theres plenty of options. 9.5 is still considered beta. and theres a new build of it like every day. do a search and you can find the cab and just install it. newest versions are builds 15000 and up. they work well. ^_^
Yes, I know about the cab but that just installs a new copy and does not overwrite the current one.
Please tell me a simple way to overwrite the one on the stock rom with a newer version and I did search but did not find anything helpful too me
I also do not wish to change roms as my one is working fine so please do not suggest it
I heard the new version doesn't support the use of the autorotate feature (usind the accelerometer). This is why I have not updated. Is this true?

no its not. it has all the features of the older builds and more.
So how do you update like I asked above?
- Find the CAB with the version you want
- Use a task manager (like Advanced Task Manager) to kill the Opera processes (OperaL and OperaPre) if they are running
http://www.touchxperience.com/en/advanced-task-manager/downloads.html
- Run the install CAB like normal. It will ask to remove the previous version, then say it could not be removed. Continue, and you will finish with a "Installation unsuccessful" message. Just ignore it, Opera will be installed just fine. Open Opera and go to opera:about to confirm the version.
If you are doing a major update, you need to install from a CAB. If you are doing a minor update (eg: not from 19xx to 2xxx, or from 2xxx to 15xxx builds), you can just overwrite the Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe files, so that your preferences aren't overwritten/reset.
And please try searching -- this information has been posted dozens of times, and is posted again and again every time Opera gets updated in the Development & Hacking section.

Latest versions include all the features. However, some CABs overwrite the skin files and reset Opera settings, which may disable some features. You can always re-enable the features by editing opera:config, but some users have mistakenly assumed that the latest versions have removed certain things (zoom slide bar, auto-rotate, etc).
Thankyou for your help

This is going to be my first Nexus. I also read that google are not going to support Flash. My question is: Is it possible to install Flash on the stock Android and play in browser Flash based games?
Cheers!
P.S. - sorry for posting in the wrong section. I`ll be grateful if you can move the thread in the apps section.

If I remember correctly, since 4.0, flash has not been supported by google in Android for all phones. Not just the Nexus 5.
Flash has been dead for awhile now and isn't even supported in the mobile version of chrome. You can side load flash onto your device and use a browser that supports it though. Not sure how games would be though.
All flash nowadays is supported by html5 but not all web designers like coding it I guess, they say it's more difficult. But adobe has unsupported flash versions on their website up to version 11.1 I believe ones that work on ICS framework and I have it running on my nexus 4 and dolphin browser and Firefox work great with it. I can stream xm from the website just fine with it and browse car buying web pages fine as well.

I have an old phone that uses Android 2.x, I think froyo or gingerbread. I want to download AFWall+ which is a firewall application that's the successor to DroidWall. The problem is the most recent version no longer supports the Android version used by my old phone. The app's details are here (I can't make it a hyperlink because I don't have 10 posts):
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.ukanth.ufirewall&hl=en
The relevant part says:
- Supports 4.x ,5.x and 6.x (for 2.x support use 1.3.4.1 version)
Click to expand...

But the problem is I don't know how to get the 1.3.4.1 version and verify it is the legitimate version. There are a lot of websites that offer downloads for older versions of apks but they could inject anything they want in them couldn't they?
I would ask the developer in his thread what is the proper way to go about this but as I mentioned I don't meet the post requirements at the moment.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

@ukanth Sorry to bother you again but I can't find version 1.3.4.1 in your thread. Did you ever get a chance to post it somewhere? I can get it from a 3rd party website but I just need you to give me the hashes of the packages so I don't install something that's trojaned. I'm a computer programmer but I don't know much about phones, so please keep that in mind if you have special instructions. Thanks
