I stumbled upon a new Mobile Browser for our HTC Dash, its called UCWEB Super Browser v6.0.1. While it is still a Beta, it is very stable (has not crached or froze up yet and I've been using it for a few days), it is very fast, has TONS of options and well (I hate to say it) is a bit better then Opera Mobile. It works flawlessly with Google (like Googles new "my location" feature on mobile search, GMail and others where Opera does not work or only half works. Security is very good and its fast as heck in rendering (it renders pages on the device not a remote server) pages and gives you the option of preformating to your devices screen size.
A quick feature summery:
Main Features:
• FREEWARE - Its free cant get better then that
• Adaptation for small screen
• Data traffic statistics
• Visited history
• Domain name quickly input
• Supporting multi-formatted file
• Supporting web local-storage
• Multi-windows browsing
• Page dynamic optimization
• Picture optimizing display
• Shortcut Keys (user defined)
• RSS Feed Subscriptions
• Built in E-mail Client for POP3 and IMAP, full support for attachments
• Comprehensive search features (user definable)
• Download Manager - Resume broken download connections
• Personal Data Manager - Saves web sites to your device, export bookmarks
All in all I give it a solid 9 out of 10 (and its still in Beta)
Check it out here: UCWEB Super Browser v6.0.1 beta
Download the Windows Mobile 5 and 6 CAB file here: UCWEB Super Browser for WM 5 & 6
Crashes Dash on first try will install to phone mem and give a try.
No such luck just shows a black bar @ top and crashes phone
I can't get it to load after installing the cab. Freed up memory and closed everything in task. Hmmm when I get time I'll try again. I checked out the website and phone model not supported. They have a generic option. What phone did you select Keith?
I download the HP -> iPAQ 512 and installed fine.
Could be that the cab Keith upload got corrupted.
*Thanks to NRG for suggesting compatible phone to Dash*

Which one did you go for as there is 2 with different file names?
http://wap.ucweb.com/dl_platform/publish/scripts/mobiledetail.php?project_code=100&mobileid=3000
Or could you just media share the file please.
Thanks in advance
Honestly...you're not hip to the Chinese language?? wow
I honestly flipped a coin and picked 2. lol
Here you go
Update: Although playing with it, not knowing if that is the right picking, it is a bit buggy.
I installed the generic, Java. I like that a whole lot better.
Maybe Keith can enlighten us on picking the right phone for our Excaliburs.
Yeah I installed the java generic earlier today and it worked fine but the Chinese is a killer. It makes you crave rice...
It's quicker than skyfire but not so sure it's faster than mini.
I'll try the HP cab.

Nice one, how did you know which Java one to get? Or was it lucky dip again?
Look @ this for a translation http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translat...pts/webcommon.php&lp=zt_en&btnTrUrl=Translate
rather funny
i didnt download the cab
i did it through wap site on phone
I saw "English" and clicked on it and it translate the steps.
Any idea if this works over t-zones??.....
Visit the wap site with your phone http://wap.ucweb.com . I downloaded mine directly from the wap site and it autodetected my Dash (I run 6.1 Kav by the way) and I had no problems. The above CAB is for WM 5 or 6, I guess it looks like it wont work on 6.1 or perhaps the CAB got messed up on upload.. I'll reupload it.
this is what you want right?
the Dopod 720w is the same as the Dash so this is the version you want am i correct?
also acording to translation the first download link is the most current version where as the second link is last stable.
I find that the fist link does not work however the second link works. (as far as running the programm goes)
i must also say its very beautiful nice find, its fast like opera mini but functional like skyfire of corse sacrific on both but meets in the middle somewhere.
The English version works fine on my HTC Touch Pro (Raphael). Up to yesterday, the file name for HTC Diamond (should be OK for Touch Pro I believe) is:
UCWEB6-61-300-31-08081214.cab
Chinese HTC is re-branded as Dopod or 多普达, Touch Diamand is calleds900.
I love the browser not just because I speak Chinese but for its unmatched features that not found with other browsers. But I don't put all my eggs in one basket, BTW.
It can use vodafone's 3G high speed Internet or Wifi (not USB with ActiveSync ).
The function that I would like to have in future versions is Flash!
Thx for the info on ucweb
thx bupahs ucweb is awesome i like it more than opera mini,more options plus when i edit my cpr file my font is the font for all applications in ucweb ,cool
It took me several tries to get the right version from their website. First I should have scrolled down to where I could switch the language to English. Instead, I downloaded the first one that appeared to be for a Windows Mobile SP. It turned out to be the latest Chinese version and even the chinese characters wouldn't show up on my phone.
Then I installed a Windows version, but I got warnings that it wasn't for my phone. It worked anyways, but I did want to get rid of the warning so I tried again. I recall someone mentioning that the HTC Dash and the Dopod C720W are the same. So I found that particular version and it is really fast! It's amazing as well that it's running natively and not as a Java App.
Uninstalling the other incorrect versions didn't go so smoothly though. The icons remained in Start/Programs. Therefore, I restored my phone from an earlier backup and then reinstalled the UCWeb browser.
Thanks again for this great find!
Thank you,
Tim
Screenshots are a must!!!!
UCWEB....
I downloaded,works great except for streaming videos.Says i need the latest version of flash player....when i try to update,it asks what OS i have.i`m not sure which to pick...I feel stupid but can i get alittle help?A link maybe? Thanks in advance.....
i have to say this is my new favorite web browser.
Definitely a great browser so far! It's quick, renders well, and is very flexible (options-wise).
the only thing i don't like is that i can't see facebook like in opera mini otherwise is awsome
i have the latest version 6.3

So many versions of cooked ROMs comes every week. Kavana and Ricky works hard, but every time there are people who want more and more.
I make this topic to help Kavana and Ricky to find what is best for community and put it in next version if they wont to. I will be happy if they post here some posts about possibility of this and that and their point of view about best ROM.
This is my Best ROM:
-WM 6.1
-Most apps from Kavana-s ROM
-10-15-20 color schemes with diferent colour and wallpapers.
-SEF security - cool free utility. With this your best frend or wife will recieve sms-s when your phone is stollen and SIM card is changed - I think this is very useful
-Weather watcher or some good alternative to see the weather fast
-Some RSS reader with possibility to download all data with one click. This is good because you can download every news with Wi-Fi or PC connection and then you be able to read all staff offline.
-Opera Mini 4 (and make it default browser)
-Settings for disable voice tags
-Good startup manager. With this you can control startup applications.
-Some diferent alarm - with one so simple function RING ONCE!
-Some chat Client with ICQ, MSN, Jabber, etc support
-Last version of oldSAP Favorites with already configured some cool staff like Opera, Weather Watcher, RSS, ICQ, etc - its easy to remove it but hard to add it you know
-Some registry optimization tweaks

-Some advaned calculator

lol. yea no slimfast...but if you can...work on a 96DPI secondary version....im dyin to see that resolution fully operational.
I second AbsoluteDesignz last request.
Also, i´d like to see Wifi Profiles as a bundled app in the rooms, i find it very usefull.
And, of course, RICK´s ROMs rule!

v5 rules for me!
Ricky ROM is ok, but all the credits go to Mr. Kavana.
Witouth his ROM, there aren't any ROM from Ricky I think.

For technology - this is not a discussion about who is the best rom of current ones - this is what you wont in the feature. If you don't wont anything and you think last Ricky rom is perfect - don't post here, because you make offtopic.
ATTN: Technology
You've made your opinion abundantly clear. But PLEASE don't post unless it's going to be something useful or contribute to the conversation. It's just flat out annoying...
...That said, one of the things I'd like to see is a builtin backup program (I know there's 3rd party programs out there, but pretty much assume that everyone who's flashing ROM's a lot tends to back up their data...)
Another is the easy-to-use ability to change the contents in CHome. It could be I'm missing something that's already there, but there hasn't been an immediately obvious way to do this that's easy to use.
Great work guys, keep it up!
Backup system is important. good point
I'd like to see the Messenger app working through the tmobile proxy...
Maybe some more comm manager skins? Touch style?
How about a web cam app to either stream or upload pics to ftp?
Or something I've always wanted, the ability to control media player on my pc through bluetooth. My Logitech BT keyboard can do it...
How about full screen Google maps?
A better photo app would be nice.
Oh i have a good one, a way to make the phone auto-answer like the nokia bug phones without the display coming on....
anyway thats my wish list and i'm sticking to it! Until then I'm very happy with ricks' awesome 6.1 roms. v5 seems to be the sweet spot on my Excalibur.

Storage Card....lol
Sorry
I think the Kavana release is best.
I prefer extra things NOT added.
I prefer stripped down ROM with basics (e.g. MS office). I can install my own things that I like.
The brightpoint ROM, for example, has Yahoo. this is a big pain when Yahoo release updates.
Basic functionality i want is:
1. UK keyboard
2. MS office
3. Registry editor
4. Don't mind a nice freeware explorer (total commander, resco, etc.)
5. Task manager not really needed in 6.1
6. Java
7. Flash lite
thats it.
I always install the following, but i would not want them in the basic rom:
a. MSNBC
b. Yahoo to go
c. Windows Live
d. Freememory
rgds
hah Resco is not free
I can't live without celetask .
There are so many features...
I don't now about SEF and Storage Card. I always install it on main memory - 400KB I think.

I don't think we should have resco on the ROM.
I know that having WM 6.1 is dubious, from a licensing point of view, but at least we did pay for WM5 and most have a legal right to WM6 upgrade.
we should not have other software installed where there is a clear legal issue. MS may well ignore a few hackers using 6.1 unauthorised, but smaller companies that live on micro-profits may not.
just my 2 cents
Welcome to the our first 0.9 Alpha release (version 0.9.0.8294)
This release is Windows Mobile only. We will have our first Symbian 0.9 release in early January.
Please read through this post since there are some gotchas that you should be aware of.
Starting with this release we are starting our Alpha program much earlier, and introducing for each release a smaller set of enhancements. The benefits are:
* You get earlier access to releases
* It is clearer what is new and allows you to focus your feedback accordingly.
* We get feedback earlier and can better integrate it into the product.
Our target for this release is last week of January.
This release is basically the latest Skyfire 0.8.5 with the following additions (more to come over time):
Text resizing:
This is a new approach to improve the readability of larger sections of text on a web page.. Our current (e.g. 0.8.*) approach is ‘Smartfit’, which reflows text into a narrower column. When it worked it was ok, unfortunately it broke a lot of web sites.
This new approach simply increases the text size enough that you should be able to read it more comfortably once zoomed into the text area (e.g. into the column width). You can switch this feature on/off by using the ‘Smartfit’ toggle. This allows you to see the difference as well.
This is our first iteration. We are looking forward to hear your opinion.
WVGA and W(Q)VGA support:
Finally. Now we support both WVGA (800x480) and WQVGA (400x240) devices on both portrait and landscape format.
We have tested in-house the Sony Ericsson Experia X1 (WVGA) and the Samsung Omnia (WQVGA).
Please see the list of known issues for these phones. It’s early days so please help us report issues.
EXPERIMENTAL: Flash/Silverlight handling:
Experimental is what it says: this is something that we played around with and we wanted to get your opinion.
When the cursor (using the d-pad) is placed over a plug-in element (Flash or Silverlight) the cursor will change to a hand a red dot. This provides two functionalities:
1. Each click will move the cursor half the distance for better preciseness.
2. You can enter “Direct Edit mode” (click and hold):
This will now send all keystrokes directly to the embedded app. This opens up the possibility to enter text into Flash or Silverlight.
Play with it and tell us what you think.
Known issues for this release:
- Samsung Omnia sometimes disconnects after ~15-20sec when carrier data service is used (WiFi seems to work)
- Sony Ericsson Experia X1: soft menus are incorrectly mapped in portrait mode. This can be corrected in the Windows under settings.
Warning: WHEN YOU SEE AN UPGRADE FLAG IN SKYFIRE PLEASE IGNORE IT. This will unfortunately upgrade you to the production version and overwrite the Alpha release. If this happens, then uninstall Skyfire and reinstall the Alpha version. Sorry for this, will be addressed soon.
Your existing username and password in 0.8.5 beta (e.g. production) continues to work for this Alpha. Thus your bookmarks and history will be preserved.
To install:
Download from this post, extract and transfer the CAB file to your device. Then install. It will be cleaner if you uninstall Skyfire first.
Windows Mobile touch screen use: 0.9_Alpha_RC.8294-PPC50.CAB
Windows Mobile non-touch screen use: 0.9_Alpha_RC.8294-SMP50.CAB
Link does not work!
Broken link, would be kind if you hosted the cab directly on XDA .
Cheers!
it works for me.but i am a member
Would you please post the .cab file here? You can attach it to the first post.

Thanks man, you're great!

First feedback:
It doesn't seem to be able to use my data connection. However, it works when I connect using wifi.
It does use my data connection. However, the sites are blurred (probably because they simply streched it to WVGA).
I try this SkyFire on my HTC HD befor few hrs and what to say I Uninstall it permanently!
Very ugly and bad quality screen
It`s not so fast like the peoples think.. my based opera 9.5 is 1000 times better than this!
I don`t see any reason to use this kind of browser and when the guys from SkyFire know the Display on HTC HD why they don`t do something to look cool and clear?
The browser look like is made for 150x300 device and someone streched it thousend times!
with one word REALLY NOT WOTH IT
Skyfire is still in Alpha... Don't expect miracles yet.
The big plus is the ability to handle flash 9 content including flash videos.
Bug: No sound in flash video such as youtube.
It works, but has no real WVGA. Looks like it scales up.

Well, Skyfire is a miracle. It loads flash videos three times as fast as my data connection is, so I can even watch youtube videos without buffering on EDGE, which would normally be impossible. It's twice to three times as fast as Opera.
There are still bugs and no real WVGA support, but it's already evident that the final product will indeed be kind of a miracle.
Btw, I've got sound on youtube.
I agree it is much faster than opera but this alpha version looks like crap compared to opera. They do need to make it real WVGA although I think I'll still use it in the mean time.
the best
Thanks man, you're great!
Cheers
better than opera and iE
Sweeet! I'm trying it right now!
Some feedback:
When I started it, the boot up of skyfire was looping between "check flight mode" and "Acquiring data connection"
I forgot that I was in flight-mode, so I switched to TF3D (minimizing skyfire) and switched off the flight-mode.
However the Data connection wouldn't turn on!
So I killed the process of skyfire, and then my data connection could turn on.
Then I started up skyfire again, this time with data connection on, but it got stuck at the "Preparing to load..." screen.
3rd try worked!

Your comparing apples to oranges guy.
so it still doesn't work well with cistom sip. while the page is loading it does,t scroll and pan properly.
any build dump from devices?
wow, this version look REALLY awesome!! the speed is just phenomenal!
this is probably already known, but the deault windows mobile sip always popps up when editing texts, instead of the htc sip. can anything be done with this?
EDIT:
you said this version has no multilingual support. this is great for me (for compatibility purposes) and i might want to do that with other builds too. can you tell me how you removed that support? or is it just inside the build, and that's the way it came?
i have created a workaround for the default keyboard issue popping up.
what you need to do is just disable the "Keyboard" sip, and the opera wouldn't be able to use it anymore, thus not changing your selected sip.
note you wouldn't be able to use the "Keyboard" sip anymore, until you uninstall the workaround.
tested on touch pro only.
just install and SR after.
enjoy.

Hey guys,
I installed this beta and tried to use SSMaPa to replace the Opera icons and what-not on TouchFLO however it has back fired badly. My Opera now does not seem to load properly at all, can I unstall the Opera that comes pre-installed and replace it with the new Beta? Thanks in advance.
Any help on this?
Just install the new version
Ola,
Just install the new version ignore any error msg. Softreset en run Opera. If opera is allready there you got now 2 seperated versions
That's works for me.
And for you... Fingers-x
Let us know if it works or not.
Grtz,

Odd that now Opera (default) has taken over the Beta so I don't have the Beta at all. Can I remove Opera from the system and then use the Beta?
Windows Media plug-in?
With other versions of Opera I have been able to stream and listen to Windows Media content through embedded plug-ins on webpages. With this version the plug-in is replaced with the text "Plug-in content" and nothing happens.
Anyone got any clue as of how I might fix this?
Thanks
Hi,
Is there any trick for having the zoom wheel enabled on HTC Touch Pro / Raphael?
Thx.
I am also very interested in the flash plugin. In the original opera on the HD I could play flash contents as I had installed flashlite 3.1. However with this beta version I just get the placeholder "plugin content". If I go to "Settings / Advanced" the "Enable Plugins" box is checked.
Would really appreciate if anyone could come up with a workaround.
Regards
Alright, let’s get Started! This is the new WM6.5 23081. I added a new Startup Animation (by aestivalisakito) and Sound (by me), Modified the Start Menu, Added my Favorite Keyboard (On all but Super Ultra Lite), and ArcSoft MMS 5.2.2.37 (on all but SUL).
I will start with a Super Ultra Lite Version, and then see where that leads me. My plans, if I have time, would be a Super Ultra Lite, a Normal Chome/Titanium, an M2D, an M2Dv2, a MotoSurf, an SPBMS 3.5, and who knows what else. Each Different Version will be listed on Page 2 (Might Spill onto Page 3) with the Download Link for each. In each Download Link I will post the Self Extracting Kitchen, an RUU_Signed.nbh, and an AutoFlash file.
What is AutoFlash you ask? I've taken the RUU file, added the Flashing Program, and Packaged it all up into an AutoExecuting AutoFlashing Program, and, it's a smaller download than the RUU alone. Pretty cool huh? Yes, others have already done this, but I'm going to make it a standard practice from now on.
"AutoFlash (tm), Making Flashing Socially Acceptable, One Package at a Time!"
My recommendation for Flashing is:
Make sure you have Hard SPL on your Phone. I recommend Olipro 1.20 - Click Here for More Info
Be sure your battery is at least 50% full.
Start your phone in Tri Color Screen mode. Steps below
--Unplug your phone from USB
--Hold down the Power & Camera Buttons
--While still holding them down, press the Reset Button using the Stylus
--Release the Reset Button, but continue to hold the Power/Camera buttons until you see the Tri Color Screen
--Plug in the USB cable (if asked about installing a driver, do this), You should see USB in the White Box)
Now you can Flash.
Run the AutoFlash file for the ROM you've selected, or Flash using the Standard Flashing Program included in the Kitchen.
Enjoy!
Suggestions:
For those who wish NOT to have a Startup Sound (it can be annoying) use my attached Kill Startup Sound.cab I'm sure this is going to be downloaded a LOT. If requested enough, I'll remove the sound completely.
If you set the IE8 Browser to 'Mobile' instead of 'Auto', it's actually usable. 'Auto' will try to display Full Websites. If you have the time, it looks Beautiful, and it displays basic Flash, but it does take a LONG, LONG, LONG time. (Menu, Tools, Options, Other)
Thank you to EVERYONE on XDA. Chefs, Programmers, Cookers, Users, Noobs, everyone! You've ALL helped me to be able to do these. I'm sure I'll learn a LOT more as the days go by.
I wanted to give a Big thanks to the.decoy and Tomme45i.
This is part of Tomme45i's Kitchen, and I'm using the.decoy's SYS/XIP. He's done an awesome job of making them lite and fast!
Keep an eye out for the'decoy's ROMs coming in the future. He's remaking the Kitchen from Scratch so that it can cook Trinity and P3600i all in one Kitchen. He's also completely reworking the folder structure and a LOT of other hidden surprises. I know you will all be impressed, the guy is super smart and talented. Like many others on here, he's got a personal life, so it may not be completed immediately, so please be patient.
Of course, there's also Chanvi/Oggi, Ervious, and Many others, I can't remember them all.

Wow, this one is Lite! No Really, I mean it! You may need to tape a roll of quarters to it to keep it from floating away..
I know this will not be for everyone, but there are those out there who prefer to start lite and add what they want from cabs. Well, this is the one. This thing runs FAST, but has NO extras. If you don't want it in there, it's NOT.

I really wanted to get a couple more menu items and icons fixed, but for some reason, I cannot figure out what's wrong. Also, I tried to get the FingerKeyboard configuration to happen after first boot, but could not make that happen either. Many of the Packages I created from Cabs myself or Modified the Original, so if there's a problem, let me know.

Please read the Flashing Instructions in the First Post for more info on these.
After Flashing, give it some time. It takes a LONG TIME to finish loading the first run. Immediately after flashing, I recommend running the FingerKeyboard Setup found in the 'Tools' Folder. Then use the 'nueSIPDefault' also found in the 'Tools' folder to set your desired Keyboard.

Waiting for normal ROM 23081.

IE8 not working
On my device I can select from the start menu the IE8 icon. On the next screen just a bigger IE8 icon is shown. But no reaction (i.e. IE is not started).

Hello
SuperSport, nice ROM tested since 1 hour and something is missing for me ... a real finger keyboard, can you share the one you cooked in 23064 Rom. I didn't find it on your mediafire web site.
Thanks a lot

I just noticed this. Will see what happened. I had it working, but somehow lost it.
Edit: Indeed, I accidentally removed a language folder for IE. It's back in, but will take me a bit to re-upload the files. I will notify in this post when they are back up, check back. All updated and IE8 Working!

The Keyboard you speak of is Cooked in. I will be adding it to the Normal Version coming shortly.
Here is a CAB version. Not sure if it works on this ROM, but it's worth a try.

I was using 1.56.70.11 for a Long time, but then decided to try others to see which one gives me best performance and battery life. Because I use my phone so differently from week to week, it's hard for me to judge, and I just stopped with 1.46.30.11 and have not changed it again.
I 'THINK' 1.56.70.11 gives a slight GPS perfermance boost, but at the cost of battery life. That's only an educated guess from using it for a year or so. I'd be curious what others think now that 1.56.70.11 has been here for a while...
Opera just released Opera Mini 5 for Windows Mobile requiring no Java. It runs a lot faster than the Java version and doesnt have that big annoying keyboard as an option. It also automatically connects your data connection taking away any lag when starting up and selecting a bookmark. Here are 3 downloads. A CAB, and an OEM or EXT package for Chefs. OEM for Build OS, EXT for Visual Kitchen.
Opera Mini 5 for Windows Mobile CAB
Opera Mini 5 for Windows Mobile OEM
Opera Mini 5 for Windows Mobile EXT
Enjoy!
thanks cooking [email protected]
Had read bad things about the non Java version but in fact works a lot better, always had mini 5 java version crash on me to the point i'm using 4.2 signed still
Thanks will cook in and test some more

Yea I hear you on the 5 java version, it would either crash or get stuck in memory. I am pleased with the non java version for sure though. Let me know how it goes I havent cooked it in yet. Just using the CAB.
I have the OLD I mean Old Tmobile SDA and it works the only downside is that you need a qwerty key board in your phone, otherwise you can only type numbers... Kinda sad but if you really want it to use it bad just use windword and copy and paste your words... lol

Thats a shame buddy, just look for a newer device on ebay and flash it for tmobile. You should be able to score at least a touch screen pda for 100 or less.
Edit: I just checked and seems you should be able to use a number pad to type with this version. This is taken from the multitapbream.ini file included in the install.
Code:
[MultiTap_abc]
KEY0=" 0"
KEY1=./,[email protected]&~!_'"1+-()%:=
KEY2=abc2
KEY3=def3
KEY4=ghi4
KEY5=jkl5
KEY6=mno6
KEY7=pqrs7
KEY8=tuv8
KEY9=wxyz9
[MultiTap_ABC]
KEY0=" 0"
KEY1=./,[email protected]&~!_'"1+-()%:=
KEY2=ABC2
KEY3=DEF3
KEY4=GHI4
KEY5=JKL5
KEY6=MNO6
KEY7=PQRS7
KEY8=TUV8
KEY9=WXYZ9
[MultiTap_123]
KEY0=0
KEY1=1
KEY2=2
KEY3=3
KEY4=4
KEY5=5
KEY6=6
KEY7=7
KEY8=8
KEY9=9
Just re-did all the files so that it installs into the windows directory. I was unsure if that was possible but I just confirmed it. This will save space!

Is there anywya to make this my default browser instead of IE in manila?

Works a treat cooked in not stalled on me once Didn't change location to WinDir for .cab read your post after cooking just a good job plenty of storage space in TouchPro
Haven't noticed anything different regards data usage.
Impressed
is there a possibility to cange the font size... i mean not in the menue. the "small" letters are still to big...
how do i make sense 2.5 internet tab load this by default? it still opens 9.7 when i press the globe, a link, or search
login glitches!
nice try man! but test it thoroughly on your device because the biggest problem of opera mini 5 is that it cannot get you logged in to some of your online accounts. i been using that for a week but stii have no success. even if i switched connection to socket or http.
but still... good luck!

opera mini keypad problem
Hi RyanMogul6800!
can u pls tell me how to edit the file multitapbream.ini and where to find it
i also have da same problem with om5wm..it only accept numbers, cant type the letters. thank buddy.
Hey Ryan, is it up to Opera to release a new Mini 5.1 cab that doesn't require java, or is it something you can cab up?
Excellently working, but I've a question ..
Both Opera 9.7 & Opera 10 can read Arabic words/sentences normally after installing my language package, but Opera Mini shows them in reverse & with letters unconnected. Is it possible that someone knows what how to get over this? Noting that Opera Mini could read Arabic normally on my previous Symbian phones (Nokia).
Thanks in advance.
Is it possible to have English UI when the Reginal Setting in the handset is in another Language like Opera 9.7
Opera Mini 5 + Extra options
do you want to try my opera mini? I hope you like it
