[Q] Problems with Ninjaduck Opera Mobile 10 - General Topics

After 225 pages of reading the Opera Mobile thread I found no answers to these problems. Perhaps I missed them. After a week there were hardly any new posts on that thread, so I am assuming that it is not as active as it used to be. So I am starting a new one.
These problems are with NinjaDuck repack 1.3 ro.fl.xxx
1) Pages are displayed too wide. Even if the screen is landscape mode, mobile sites or zoomed views of normal sites display about twice as wide as they should be. In the stock 9.5 both mobile version of sites and non mobile versions that are zoomed to 100% would fill the screen horizontally, but not more. So no horizontal scrolling is needed. But now I need to scroll left to right in order to read most sites.
2) Sometimes I get blank screens loaded.
3) Most times I have to tap a link 5- 10 times before it will actually work. Each time I press the link the blue box shows but nothing happens.
4) Flash does not work, on any site. Not even m.youtube
5) In Opera 9.5 using m.facebook I could close the browser and reopen it dozens of times over the course of weeks and I was always logged in. In this version I get logged out of the site at least once a day, sometimes 2 or 3 times. And most times when I try to log back in I get error messages. I have to try to log in process several times before it will log back in. Sometimes it even takes restarting the browser, or soft resetting the phone b4 it will work.
6) Every time I use opera 10 my ram usage will go up to almost 90% with only 1 or 2 tabs open. This is with a fresh re boot and 50+% of ram is free before opening opera. With 9.5 I could have 5 tabs open and still be around 70%ram usage.
Any help?
I am using the newest USA tmo version of WM 6.5 The inbuilt version of 9.5 with that rom sucks!! I loved the version from USA Tmo WM6.1- wish I could have that back.
I would gladly give up auto-rotation and flash to have ALL the other problems fixed.
Thanks for any and all help.

Merge/close redundant post/thread
No need to open a new thread with same topic, this go against the rules, if your question has not been answered wait and have patience, Official thread is the most likely place to get your answer and don´t think because you opened a new one with same question will help.
I use to had a Rhodium and used Opera 10 with no ant issue, of course never with a stock ROM, since day one I changed to Energy ROM and was smooth and able to open several tabs with no speeds or stability issues.

Thanks. Info is noted.

best browsing experience on touch pro

hey guys, i was thoroughly disappointed with opera mobiles performance.. it really sucked (for me at least). Page would take a long time to open, and the windows would move all over the place while the page was loading, etc. Anyways, i finally decided to download opera mini and its a world of a difference, its amazing! however to do it correctly, follow this guys advise:
http://mobilitysite.com/2008/06/running-opera-mini-41-on-windows-mobile-2/
dont just go to operamini.com and download the version they tell you, because then you have to agree to that message everytime you go to a page. if you do it the way this guy says, you only have to give permission the first time you open opera. he also shows you a way to have it as a program, eliminating the need to open the jbed java app to launch from there.
another thing i did, is because our device is vga, the font was small. i set it to extra large, and its very good. even the scrolling is much better on the mini version, and ITS MUCH FASTER!! i cant emphasize the last one enough. anyways, just wanted to let u guys know, good luck
ps: also, something that is huge for me, typing something into a webpage is also much better now. on opera mobile, i would have to try to fit the screen size so i can see what i'm typing; with opera mini, it opens a new window for you to t ype in, it's like your typing in word or something. makes a huge difference IMO
omar
I couldn't agree more.
Unless something is wrong with just my phone, I can't see how anyone would like Opera Mobile.
Just open any forum page here. Probably takes 20-30 seconds to load on Opera Mobile on a fast Wifi connection...and that's after it takes 5-10 seconds to just load up.
Do it on Opera Mini and it takes maybe 2 on a 1x connection, even.
Opera Mini doesn't have tabs, but you are saving so much time elsewhere, that's livable.
It also runs through a proxy, so I guess you could get stale pages or https stuff won't work great.
But, for 95% of the browsing I do, Mini works perfectly and is unbelievably fast and it's clear on the vga screen.
I also chose Extra Large fonts.
If you decide to use Opera Mini, here's a way to make it the "default" for opening links.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=384271
Have you guys tried the newer version of Skyfire? If so, do you like Mini better?
ya i use mini much more than mobile
btw just download this zip, extract cab and install it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=113596&d=1221663410
it will ask if u want to make mini default browser...also installs java if u dont have it.
i change my image quality to high and font to biggest settings
I'm using UCWEB6 and I'm quite satisfied. Fast enough, tabbed browsing, easy to use..
yeah, im done using opera mobile, mini works so good!
i also use piscel and sometimes skyfire if im next to an ac jack... ill use ie just as i do on desktop, BUSINESS ONLY!
I used Opera Mobile for about a minute....
Help: I am having a problem with Mini not fully loading pages and getting white screens. I have Jbed 2.1 (read it was better than the newest version) and the newest Mini. Any advise?
I love the speed of Mini (thanks for posting the download link), but even on extra large the text is very very small. Is there a way to make it show up bigger?

Are you using the generic version? Seems like UCWEB6 was made for Nokia devices not HTC
Another opera mini fan here, the fastest browser I have used, that includes skyfire. Only issue is lack of tabs, but otherwise its great

No, I'm using this one. It says ppc2003 but it's working fine on all my devices, supports both VGA and QVGA
im using a mix of ucweb and operamini.. loving it. the only thing wrong with this phone is the lack of softkeys.. makes browsing with mini a little harder..
I've been using the "vga" version of skyfire since it came out, and I love it for its full browsing experience, speed, and ability to watch video in the browser.
Thank you for this thread!
I never used opera mini before and I was amazed by it's speed. It's not going to be my default browser (that's still PIE because I almost only view sites which are optimized for mobile devices) but it's absolutely perfect for viewing this forum for example!

This crashed for me. Whole device froze up.
Opera Mobile.. it's just CRAP compared to Opera Mini.
CONS Opera Mobile:
- load time (HTC/Opera cheat by preloading Opera at StartUp)
- lots of squares while dragging
- many times while you drag the stupid software cannot make difference between dragging and tapping
- if you drag the page and the page is still loading, you are dropped to other position that you are.. this is so annoying.. you have to drag again or wait until all the page elements are loaded by the browser
So, Opera Mini is very good on the majority of sites. (there are problem with the pages with many images, it cannot handle all of them).
I'm using a VGA version of jbed and I don't have problem with font size ANYMORE.
Big thanks to trueg. Get it from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2973176&postcount=23
if i'm not mistaken, the reason why opera mini is so fast is because the pages are actually cached or pre-processed by Opera servers and then sent to you. with Opera mobile, you connect to the website directly.

That's very strange. It works great on my Blueangel, Wizard, Universal, Trinity and Raphael with all the custom roms I have installed on them and with the shipped rom on the Raphael the first day I got it.
Try installing on the SD card or the device memory, whichever you haven't tried.
Still have to say yes
Anyone else having issues with still having to click yes every time you try and go to a site? If I exit and open, the first time I try to open I get this annoying request. Followed the directions exactly and had no problems?
Also can't seem to browse with this on wifi, anyone else having this issue?

Yes, I have the same issue. But since I just have to click ok once in every session it's ok for me.

going back to opera 8.65

ok opera 9.5 is really pissing me off and i absolutely hate the fact that every time i load a new link i have to double click to zoom back in and see waht im looking for. I also hate the fact that in order to view what tabs i have open i have to click on that little box at the bottm and play a gusesing game as to what the tabs opened are.
opera 8.65 also had an option to click in the settings to recognize your device as a handheld or as a desktop computer which solved the ever so rampant problem people are complaining about with 9.5 of the browser not recognizing full html sites and defaulting to mobile versions. you shouldnt have to edit the god damn registry and screw with at many settings JUST in order to visit the full version of a webpage! opera prides themselves at giving you the true full internet experience but little do they tell you that its up to you to screw with your phone and figure out how!
anyways, i was just wondering if anyone like me had gotten fed up with this latest installment of opera and reverted back to the previous version that ACTUALLY had all the good bells and whistles that worked properly?

While I agree with your points, its really the best option at the moment outside of Skyfire. To be honest Skyfire to Touchscreen phones is not what it was for Smartphones, its just not that refined/accurate/reliable/fast yet. Hopefully when full VGA comes out to Skyfire we can really dump Opera for good (kidding).
Opera also needs to understand that people want flexibility with the scroll wheel on the bottom of the phone. Why zoom when I could scroll down the page and double tap zoom if necessary. Why not also adjust the sensitivity of the screen to not always zooom out everytime I'm

I Am Running Opera 8.65 On Fuze
I installed 8.65 on my Fuze storage card using the normal CAB from their website. I had a licensed version on my Tilt and transferred the license. I do miss the scroll-wheel-to-zoom feature but not much else as I have been using 8.65 for a while now and am quite comfortable with it. Turns out the original Opera is still in main memory (\Windows\OperaL.exe) so I can run either. Plus I have Skyfire installed as well. Frankly, none of them work well for every site and I move between them and even PIE depending on what I am doing.
Peter
try typing "opera:config" without the quotes obviously into the address bar, with NO http:// in front... many... many settings where you can change around what you want. Opera 9.5 is by far the BEST web browser out there where now as even the iPhone Safari can not perform the same actions.
what about the mobile view in opera 9.5? i thought it did a good job..felt like a better version of 8.65.
"mobile view" on the newest opera (9.5) jsut makes it so that everything ont he page fits in a single column, this has NOTHING to do with mobile loaded sites versus the full html sites.
ive messed around with the opera:config settings and none of them result in making my yahoo homepage come up with the real one that will allow me to do waht i need to do with yahoo.
i think i will take the suggestion of installinf the old version on my storage card so that i have the best of both worlds. god damnit i really wish skyfire would get their act together and give us waht we want instead of just making something barely usable so they can say they have "vga support".... bastards.
shade
skyfox99. Thank you for the good tip to configure Opera. However do you know where there is list of explainations and recommendations for the various settings? It would be great to hear what setting others use and why/how it improves Opera.
Thanks.
Joe
I went back too
I hate the default browser too and reverted to 8.65. If you search here, there is link showing how to make any browser default in the Browser Tab of TF3D.
double tap should centre the zoom-in on the point of tap, not a few inches away. For example, if i am looking at an xda thread on my phone and want to go to the next page, I am looking at the "Page 1 of 8 < 2 3 4 5 > Last". I would double tap on this, my phone will ALWAYS zoom in 1.5 screens to the left, so I have to do 2 scrolls to the right
My other serious issue with this browser is the SIP always comes up on certain websites, even though I am not touching any text boxes, in fact usually happens while page is still loading. I have disables auto SIP popup in advanced config, its just a glitch in opera 9.5

Opera Mobile 10 takes 20 SECONDS to start??

I have a question folks. I tried looking for this problem in the forums but did not find anything specific... I am using Opera Mobile 10 beta, and for some reason whenever I want to start the browser, it takes me exactly 20 seconds for opera to start. On the 20th second, the red LOADING bar comes up and then my opera speed links open up....No other browser does the same, so it must be only Opera Mobile 10 beta. Does anybody else experience the same issue? its frustrating. Thanks guys!
This is not a common issue, and you shouldn't even be using the beta version anyway. The full version is out. Just point a browser at http://m.opera.com to download it.
If you still have the same problem then I suggest you try to figure out what other software that you have installed is causing this problem, because it is not Opera.
Thank you very much for the answer. I believe I am using the latest version of Opera 10 Mobile as that is exactly how I downloaded it 2 days ago. I can`t figure out what other software may be causing this as there is no software running while i am opening Opera...Do you think because i have 3 different Opera browsers, it may be causing this problem? It only happens with the Opera mobile 10... Does it matter if I install stuff on my SD card or in my system??
Edit: I tried reinstalling it...It has the same issue...
EDIT: I installed in DEVICE instead card, now it takes only 2 seconds to load... I guess that was the issue. Better make sure I install some of the apps on the device...
did you hard reset your hd2??

[QUES] - Multitasking no longer works!?

Phone : HTC Universal (unmodded, 64MB)
ROM : Tomal 8.50
Not sure why, could be a free ram issue, but lately it seems to have stopped multitasking in an odd way. E.g. I'm in internet explorer, select some text, copy, open notes, new note, paste, ok. But IE has magically closed itself in the background by the time i've done this and i can't switch back! Most apps seem to do it, e.g. google maps, opera too, as soon as i use one app for more than a few seconds any others that are not in focus close silently.
Dont think i have any aggressive demons running, the rom is pretty much as is apart from a couple of today plugins!
I had the same problem, but only after I installed Opera. I don't know whether it's really Opera that's the culprit or not, but since I want to use it anyway, I searched for solution and this little app http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5711787 seems to do the trick - no more programs closing in the background.
Thanks, only installed opera a few days ago, must be doing odd things to my system, will give AutoClose patch a try tho, thanks!
Just FYI, though it may not be the reason for the OP, I have heard this being said about Opera a lot of times, I've not checked but my gut feeling really is it has something to do with it.
Moved to Q&A as not dev.

Best ROM for HTC Touch Pro2 Rhodium 400?

I am convinced that an almost working Anderoid will make me more happy than a fully functioning Windows Mobile 6.5
So I have read a lot of the forums and installed two different Anderoid ROM's successfully on my HTC Touch Pro 2 model Rhod400. One was FRXO6 Froyo and the other was GBX0A Gingerbread. The Froyo build crashed on me a lot so I tried the Gingerbread ROM, which didn't crash but I couldn't get a good strong data or phone connection.
two questions:
1) Who out there in XDA land has a good experience with the HTC Touch Pro 2 and which build did you use and do you have a link to this download? I would really love to get a good stable Anderoid build of any flavor onto my HTC TP2 if I can get some of the basics to work including bluetooth and the camera? Please share. Thanks.
2) Where is a link to where all the different Anderoid ROM builds kept for downloading and testing?
Thanks much !
Windows Mobile 6.5 is pretty good after all
Since I haven't been able to find a stable Anderoid ROM with bluetooth for my HTC TP2, I've been tweaking Windows Mobile 6.5, which is what apparently is loaded standard on the HTC Touch Pro 2, and I'm getting used to it.
I was able to get GPS locations into my photos, bluetooth works good, Wi-fi works good, I found a program called Fileaschanger that I can order my contacts by firstname lastname. I installed the latest Opera 10 mobile browser So life it getting better in my Windows Mobile 6.5 world.
2 questions:
A) Does anyone know if I can upgrade from Windows Mobile 6.5 to windows mobile 7 or do I have to buy a new phone to get the upgrade? I have Sprint.
B) I would still love to find a great Anderoid ROM for my HTC Touch Pro2 if anyone has a good experience please let me know.
Windows Mobile 6.5 frustrations
I've decided I HAVE to switch to Anderoid. Anyone that has HTC Touch Pro2 or Tilt 2 experience with Anderoid ROM's please point me in the right direction. Throw me a bone or a little foothold. Thanks!
After spending another 10 days with windows mobile 6.5, I am going slowly nuts. Most of the time I am frustrated with how long it takes me to find the right contact, and then press the right button. It is so touchy, it often clicks into the wrong screen, then locks up and I can't get out of that until it times out.
Windows Mobile 6.5 could care less about me, it makes me do things for it, instead of the other way around. Isn't a smartphone supposed to be smart and make my life easier? I spend way too much time clicking and searching and hunting for stuff. I have heard that Windows Mobile 7 is amazing, but I don't think I can get that for my phone, so it has to be Anderoid.
Trying out FRX07 on my Rhodium
I see that FRX07 was just released, so I will try that out and let you know how it works on my HTC TP2. Blue Tooth is supposed to work in FRX07 so that would be cool.
FRX07 works very well on HTC TP2
So far, real good, I recommend FRX07 build on the HTC Touch Pro 2. I am having a ton of fun setting it up. Get the FRX07 build here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171052 I have had very few issues, and many more successes !!
1) A minor annoyance: Backlight didn't work on the keypad when I slide it out. From the Android Market (which works nice) I installed a Backlight app and that seemed to do the trick and backlight works now.
2) WiFi works fine on WPA2 and I think it worked connecting to a WEP router also
3) It is a tad bit sluggish, I'm working on an Overclocking app now.
4) I have downloaded and installed about 5 apps so far, and they all seem to work OK.
5) Bluetooth. I haven't tried it yet.
6) Voice Search works. It does do 1 annoying thing that if I use it once it won't work again, and i force it to close with an app killer and then it works.
7) I haven't pocket dialed anyone since I put in Android. That is a big plus over Windows Mobile 6.5
8) Contacts all downloaded automatically from my GMAIL account when I setup gmail. The built in contact app works very well, searching for a contact works great compared to Windows Mobile.
9) Installed a barcode reader and it works great
10) Camera works.
11) Facebook app works and after installing it I can now share and upload photos to Facebook.
After using 2.2.2 Froyo for about a week I have a few issues. The #1 issue is that it has a lag time that seems to be growing, and Android is rather sluggish now. Frustratingly so. Maybe I need to reformat my SD card and reinstall.
Also Android crashed a few times today, that is the first time it has crashed. One time it crashed while I was talking on the phone. Not sure what brought that on.
Also, lots of applications, like maybe a dozen, auto start and seem to slow down the O.S. I downloaded a task killer app, but not sure if that one is working exactly the way it should. I can't seem to find any pages that you can alter if the application starts or not on boot. I would like to have them not start.
so maybe I do need to reformat and reinstall.
FRX07 lag time issues sort of resolved on HTC TP2
Sharing more of my Android experience. Android Froyo 2.2.2 FRXO7 on an HTC TP2 off of a 2GB sandisk memory card. This Touch Pro 2 normally runs Windows 6.5 mobile. I start HARET.exe and it boots up Linux / Android FRX07.
I was going nuts on the task killer, killing my apps all the time, then even went so far as to set the task killer to auto kill. Response time was getting worse and worse. Finally, figured out the task killer was my main CPU hog problem. Instead of helping it was hurting. So I uninstalled the Task Killer and am letting Android figure out what processes it should end. That is helping, and Android is more responsive again. Of course, it can always be faster, so I will try a few more things. I do still have a task killer. I am currently using ES TASK KILLER, but I'm only using it mainly to see what processes are running and NOT setting it to automatic.
Here is an interesting page with the title:
FAQ: Why You Shouldn’t Be Using a Task Killer with Android
Explains you don't need to worry about memory usage with Android (Linux).
http://geekfor.me/faq/you-shouldnt-be-using-a-task-killer-with-android/
Also, in my experience, important to not install more than one new app at a time. Otherwise you won't know which app is hurting response time. Install 1 (one) app, use it for a bit, at least maybe 30 minutes or an hour. You can tell right away if your new app is affecting your lag time or not. if so uninstall and find a new similar app and test it. For example: Opera mobile browser for Android seemed to be affecting my response time a lot (almost non usable), so I removed Opera Mobile and now I'm testing Dolphin browser and it doesn't seem to be slowing me down. I didn't test Opera Mini, I was going to but I saw Dolphin so I tried it instead, and the Dolphin browser is pretty nice so far.
just installed fxr07 yesterday... Had heck of a time getting sd card(s) to reformat to work for install.
really like it, after setup and several reboots, the Speed is very reasonable. Have had a few unplanned reboots into windows, but android loads rather fast now.
I did the install so I could use the androids tether WiFi hotspot to connect my new HP TouchPad to the internet when not at home. The winmo tether is ad-hoc so it would not work with Touch pad.
took 24 hours to get it to work (configuration difficulties with both devices), but got it to work!
if anyone needs help with this, feel free to pm.
Love the Touchpad, esp with overclock and performance tweaks and the fireside prices!
Intalled Gen.y Dualboot on HTC TP2 w detailed installation instructions
Nice!
I still feel that my android install is too slow. For instance, after I press the camera button it takes 5 seconds before the camera app pops up. Is that slow or not? Maybe my expectations are too high. 5 seconds to get into settings or contacts, but only 2 seconds to get into messages, 20 seconds to open a browser and see the google.com screen.
Also, am happy camper again, because I installed Gen.y dualboot on my HTC TP2. Since it wasn't super obvious how to install gen.y dualboot, here is how I installed gen.y on my HTC Touch Pro 2.
1) Boot into Windows Mobile on your HTC TP2
2) Open Internet Explorer in the Windows Mobile
3) Go to this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792
4) Go down the page, find and click the link that says Gen.Y DualBOOT v1.0.6.0 CABs (QVGA|WQVGA|VGA|WVGA)
5) A Megaupload web site page opens, wait 45 seconds for the timer to count down, then click Regular Download. (all this from your windows mobile HTC TP2).
6) A zip file of 4 cabs will download
7) Find the zip file you just downloaded to your Windows Mobile, and extract the cab you need. The HTC TP2 has a WVGA screen, so extract the WVGA cab. I have Total Commander on my Windows Mobile 6.5 HTC TP2, so I was able to find and extract the WVGA cab to a folder using Total Commander.
8) Find and double-click that WVGA CAB you just extracted, and it will install (again I used Total Commander) but probably any file explorer will work. I installed it to my internal memory on the HTC Touch Pro 2
9) Reboot and you will see the dual boot screen. You can customize the dual boot however you like.
10) Optionally, you can delete the zip file and cab file if you want.
Thanks to whoever created the gen.y dualboot, it is pretty awesome.

I have been reading this good how-to thread about Android Speed Improvements
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218458
Topic #4. I tried this. I can't really say if it runs any faster or not, it feels faster AFTER it wakes up from a dark screen, once it wakes up it feels more responsive. It has not frozen up on me yet.
I put the line below into my startup.txt file and rebooted and now I am running at 710.4 Mhz Max on my HTC TP2.
acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=710400
Topic #5. To be fair, I also tweaked the OS with topic #5 in addition to topic #4 (kind of dumb of me to tweak two things at once, since now I don't know which one is helping).
I changed the last 3 variables on this line. So the speed up could be from this line also. I didn't do the line below, Instead I used a file manager, found the file /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree edited this file using a text editor right from the phone, then saved it. I did use the parameters below. BTW: You will lose these settings on a reboot.
echo "1536,3072,4096,21000,23000,25000" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree
After tweaking the two settings above I tried a few benchmarks with my wireless on and sync on, GPS I had off and Bluetooth off.
16 sec = Camera open
03 sec = Chomp (text messaging) open
04 sec = Contacts open all 1000+
06 sec = Messaging (android classic) open
18 sec = Market open
06 sec =Opera Mini open
08 sec = Dolphin Browser open

I am curious how this was done? I have the HTC Rhodium 400 on Sprint. I have installed FRX 7.1 and as stated works great, however when i go into mobile hot spot, i can turn on the password encrypted wifi and connect my touchpad to it however the problem begins when i try to exit the wifi hotspot. The Rhodium will not disconnect and then hangs, freezes and then i have to pull battery and start over.
any suggestions?
i finally got andriod installed on my tp2 but the touch screen isnt working any ideas?

Windows Mobile 6.5 could care less about me, it makes me do things for it, instead of the other way around. Isn't a smartphone supposed to be smart and make my life easier? I spend way too much time clicking and searching and hunting for stuff. I have heard that Windows Mobile 7 is amazing, but I don't think I can get that for my phone, so it has to be Anderoid.

I have a SPrint TP2 and currently running on the FRX07 build and everything works like a charm Bluetooth, GPS, WIFI and earphone Jacks only problem is i use a GSM network and everytime my screen sleeps the network goes off or switches to cdma mode although im operating in GSM or WCDMA mode. Have even tried deleting and unchecking the force cmda mode but to no avail.

I've decided I HAVE to switch to Anderoid. Anyone that has HTC Touch Pro2 or Tilt 2 experience with Anderoid ROM's please point me in the right direction. Throw me a bone or a little foothold. Thanks!

Search for the FRX07 build and GBXOC files on xda forum.afte the download,follow the old procedures of formating n extraction on your pc.then delete the system and haret files fom the frx07 files and replace the two deleted files with the gbxoc haret and system file.u will den have a set of files.place them on yr formatted fat 32 sd card.remove yr sim card and run haret on yr new set of files.feel free to contact me
Because of the controversy and arguments they inevitably generate, "best ROM" threads are prohibited on XDA. Thread closed.
