Opera just died on me

X7510 running stock ROM, WM 6.1.
When I go to start Opera, or click on a link in an email, the flash screen starts up, the graphic works on the flash screen, then nothing, the app itself refuses to launch. Yes I have tried a soft reset.
As a workaround, how could I make something else the default browser, like Netfront Access, so that it would automatically start when I click on a web link?
thanks

try setting
try setting,personal then buttons from there you can change it to any browser you have installed,so when you hold on to home button it should open up the browser that you set.

thanks, that works, but the problem is that if I click on a link in an email, it automatically tries to open Opera, and of course fails. I would like it to open the beta of Netfront Access, or even a different beta of Opera, but at least to open some working browser that goes to the link!!
Is there some way of setting the default browser in the registry?
thanks

I don't think you can- and it frustrates the hell out of me as well
I want to use Netfront for all browser activity and I have it set as the default browser, but any web links within emails still open Opera. I've tried going right through the registry changing all the references to Opera to point to Netfront but it still happens so there must be a hard coded instruction somewhere!

thanks - I tried the latest beta of Opera, but it too failed saying that it couldn't initiate DirectDraw, whavever that may mean.
I have re-loaded now, see what happens.
thanks - and I agree with the frustration over app associations!

Can't access website on Opera Mobile

About 2 days ago, my HTC Fuze started having trouble accessing http://m.gizmodo.com (and any other mobile Gawker site) from Opera Mobile. I can view the normal version of Gizmodo just fine and the site will open in Internet Explorer, but when trying to access it in Opera, I get the following message:
"The site is currently unavailable; please contact the system administrator."
Any idea what could be causing this? I tried deleted all cookies, cache and history; rebooting the phone; etc., but nothing seems to have corrected the problem.

maybe it's a proxy setting thing

OK...so how do I address that? All other websites seems to be working just fine using Opera Mobile. I reported the problem on gawker's support site, but it seems to be community driven, so I'm not sure I'll get a response unless someone else had the same problem and was able to find a solution.

[Q] Login problems webbrowser

Hi,
I've been having some trouble logging in on a certain site. The site is https:// eduweb.wur .nl/. It's from my school and asks me (on the computer) to login in a separate window. On android I don't get an extra window, it just says error 403. I tried using miren browser, stock browser and steel. I have a HTC Legend with android 2.2. Has anybody else had this problem? Is there a simple fix? Does another app work better (I don't have opera installed because of space, and yes everything is on the sd card). Thanks in advance for any help!

[Q] Downloading files from rapidshare

Yeah i'm trying to grab a video a friend uploaded to rapidshare in .rar, format with a premium account and direct downloads enabled. However, it keeps downloading a very small .htm file instead. It's the same with dolphin, though opera mini shows the correct file extension and file size but the download fails before it has even begun. Is this more a honeycomb problem? Can anyone suggest a way to download files from sites like rapidshare?
Thank you

Try Opera. I have no problem in downloading from those sites.

i also have this problem with dolphin HD, is there a fix? i tried using astro file manager to allow downloads in browser(this worked on my atrix) but no luck with the asus. works with opera but im looking for a way to not have to use more than one browser

I ran into this issue when I try downloading some files. Anyone had success with opera?

opera works. i have also had issues with d/l files using dolphin. its not a TF issue but a dolphin browser issue, it also does the same thing on the xoom and galaxy tab.

ths man...will trywith opera...

I use dolphin for my browsing.but for 4shared and other sites..filesonic rapidshare and so on..I copy the URL and do ALL my downloading with Firefox...works everytime....well..almost everytime when the other browsers choke up.

This is a problem with the gingerbread browser as well. As others have mentioned, I use opera mobile for these types of sites.

Worked wtroopers...thanks.
Now, need to figure out torrents,only public tparents are working with adownloader

I use Firefox Mobile for this. Didn't try Opera yet.
