how do i set Opera Mini as default web browser?

as in, when i click on a link in google maps, i want it to browse with opera mini and NOT PIE
side question, whats the diff between opera mini and the full opera mobile?
other than the fact that i need to pay
thanks
Did you search or RTFM???
Launch Opera, then Menu-Tools-Settings-Misc-and place a check mark next to Set Opera as Default. Not too hard to do.
As far as your second question is concerned, I'd suggest www.opera.com.
Opera mini isn't as easy as that.

So sorry. I'm using Opera 8.65 for Windows Mobile. It was real easy to make it my default browser. I still think Searching is a good idea.
Sorry about the misunderstanding
There is Opera MINI and Opera MOBILE
for mobile i know how to set cuz it's an exe file
but since MINI is a java base file and requires a midlet, i had to ask for more advice on how to do it
and as i suspected
it's more complicated than i thought
Thanks for trying to help, though, kimtyson

Opera Mini 4: How to change User Agent?

I use ATT Tilt. How can I change Opera Mini 4 User Agent ID/String so I can view sites like yahoo like on my computer. The User Agent ID tells websites that I am using a pda so the sites automatically send their mobile versions instead of the real thing.
Thanks
You can't. I've posted a lot on this issue in the official Opera Mini forum; check out my posts.
Thanks for the reply but I found a solution after a few minutes of searching. I remembered using anonymous proxy surfing a few years ago. Right now, there are tons of them. Some free and some paid anon surfing sites. This one is free and hides the user agent string: http://www.guardster.com/subscription/proxy_free.php
Yahoo, gamespot, and others work great now with opera mini 4. Guardster anon doesn't get in the way too much since its a small strip on top of the page. load times are fast. one thing to remember though, you will get proxy error if you leave spaces after the url.
Bye.
try to type :
opera:config
in the URL field...
I know it work on Opera 8 and 9... but i don't know on the JAVA version...
doesn't work in opera:config

set opera as system browser

I've searched the forums, but can't find an answer; please help:
How can I change opera to be the system level browser? M2D opens it up fine, but if I click on a link in either an email, another program, or elsewhere, it opens in IE. I would like the links in emails, etc. to open in opera. How can I do this?
I'm using a touch cruise, WM 6.1, and whatever recent opera build came with my rom (C_shekhar's latest with footprints).
Thanks to everyone who cruises Q&A to help us dummies out!

[19.11] Opera User Agent Switcher with icons v2|OUASW2|Opera Mobile 9.x+10|OUABackup

Switcher for Opera Mobile 9.X and Opera Mobile 10
Both versions downloadable at the end of this blog-article.
http://blog.is-a-geek.org/?p=1379
Useragents for:
A1
Vodafone
iPhone
DefaultEN
DefaultDE
Firefox
Delete
Added 3
Download is at the end of the article. If the icons doesnt show up do a softreset.
OUASW2 for Opera Mobile 9.X just changes the regkeys.
OUASW2 for Opera Mobile 10 changes the opera.ini file.
You can install both parallel.
More Useragents and ManilaInterface in version 3 hopefully if i find enough time
For the next version please post the useragents of your branded phones.
To find your Useragent you can use the OUABackup.
OUABackup - Backup and restore your useragent
It will place a file on your SD Card with your useragent.
With this little app it is also possible to restore the useragent.
For Opera 9.x and 10.
Cab and noinstall exe file available here as attachment.
If you backup twice it will overwrite the old backup file.
Please share your useragent and the provider of your branded phone!
If you want to support me just visit my blog http://blog.is-a-geek.org and click some ads if u are interested.
Nice feature! Thanks!
What benefits give your modifications except other icon? Opera will be identified like desktop Firefox for example?
exactly or as iphone
i made this because i had problems to view the vodafone live portal because u need the user agent of a branded phone
Thats awesome! If this mod can prevent viewing mobile versions of some sites, then i can say this is one "must have" app! Thank you.
Sorry to sound like a noob...
It's not very often something goes right over my head, but can some one please explain what this is exactly?
Sounds interesting..
it just changes a setting for opera.
the user agent entry tells the server/webpage if its a firefox,ie,opera .....
for some pages there are different versions of pages ae mobile versions, iphone versions ...
its also a problem to view the vodafone portal without the correct user agent
got it! cheers
working on version 2
please send me some branded user agents with provider and location thank you
Interesting little app,
Was wondering if you could add iPad agent? - as I understand that gmail has a nice looking interface for ipad's and was wondering what it would look like on the HD2 (If it works at all as I think is HTML5)
UA is,,
Mozilla/5.0(iPad; U; CPU iPhone OS 3_2 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.21.10 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Mobile/7B314 Safari/531.21.10
More info here http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2010/04/google-services-on-ipad-and-tablet.html
Hi Chal.
Well done for creating this useful App. I will give it a try. What is the 'Delete' icon for?
will look into it but i think opera mobile isnt supporting html5
soooooo need more useragents
The delete icon just leaves the user agent blank
Does this work with Opera Mobile 10?
sorry for the late reply
it does not work with version 10
im using version 10 too now so next week i will post the same cab for version 10
on my blog
thank you. using it with opera mobile 10 and theres no problem so far
Save active User agent
Hi, it's a useful tool.
Is it possible to add a functionality that save the active User Agent in a shortcut ?
Fo example my active user fo SFR in France is (Vodafone/1.0/HTC_HD2/1.44.163.3 (70494) Opera/9.7 (Windows NT 5.1;U;fr), is it possible to save it on a shortcut automaticaly, switch to Iphone user agent and come back to the previous saved one ?
Thx for you'r answer
Hello,
Nice mod, sound interesting. Downloading & will test it.
BTW, and sorry for getting off topic, In the second snapshot I see you have Firefox for WM installed. I've searched everywhere for it & came out with nothing. Can you please share the cab?
Thanks in advance.
it is possible to make a little app to save the useragent
if i have enough time i will post it next week
if it makes some kind of backup file on the storage card it can be useful for rom upgrades too. and maybee people can post the file to get more useragents for the switcher
i dont have ff installed
its just the icon to use the firefox useragent with opera
the firefox for wm is called "fennec"
cab should be here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-touch-pro/57272-fennec-official-release-get-cab-here.html
