Aloha,
Version Opera Mini v4.2.13216 - 20081124
Found a working Opera Mini WVGA version for the Touch HD!
http://rapidshare.com/files/181737253/Opera_Mini_Final4.2.cab
New version... Opera Mini v4.2.13337 - 20081205
http://rapidshare.com/files/184240714/Opera_Mini_4.2.13337.cab
The following registry settings control the font sizes for apps running in JBed:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\Esmertec Java\Device Info\Java Font]
"Size Large"="26"
"Size Medium"="20"
"Size Small"="16"
Still the version i like, fast, clean and small
Have a nice weekend
i'm still annoyed, that firefox isn't available for pda's...
but thx for up
I found the standard 4.2 from mini.opera.com to work o.k. on the Touch HD. What's so special about this one?

Doesn't the HD already come with the Opera browser?

yes
But i like the Opera Mini more... (faster, smarter, feeds support with remote sync etc) this version is with bigger Font Size so it's running ok on a 800x400 screen.
So the Opera browser that comes preinstalled on the HD isn't Opera Mini? It's not Opera Mobile, right? I thought the HD utilizes a full HTML browser...

the opera 9.5 that comes with the hd is opera mobile, a standalone executable program, which is a full html browser. opera mini is a java applet that runs within a java environment, and used to have limitations. maybe newer versions of opera mini have more functionality??

Cool, works well thanks.
Very fast at loading pages, with nice sliding transitions. The rendering's less accurate compared to 'big' Opera though.
Pros / Cons
I use both the browsers, in my view Opera Mini is far superior though, but with faults. Opera Mobile which comes on the HD is good when it works and you have a fast connection (WiFI or strong HSdPA). I believe Opera Mini uses pre rendered pages from Opera so is very fast, yes the transitions are nice. It has speed-links like Opera on your PC and can handle pretty much all pages I've ever tried to load. Opera mobile sometimes messes up pages with forms, for example, using tfl.gov.uk is so fast on opera mini, nearly impossible on opera mobile. File downloads are fine in Opera Mini as it can access the file directories on the HD, the download manager is maybe not as good as on Opera Mobile though, stop-resume etc..
Opera mini doesn't have tabs though.. one page only, a couple of times it can hang, you need to mess around with it so it doesn't ask each time if it is allowed to access the data connection, leave it running in the background and it can struggle to find connection again without restarting Opera Mini. Also you have to load it through JAVA (from a list of other Java programs you might have on your HD, GMAIL etc..) unless anyone knows how to give it it's own direct shortcut?? Also it's not integrated with TF3D like opera mobile.
I use 4.2 direct from Opera, fine but yes the menus are small, but still quite easy to press. Sounds like there is a WVGA version now. Perhaps in the next version (4.3?) this will be the ultimate browser.
I'll carry on with both for now

got version 4.2.13216 here
and it works a treat.
Error message
When launching Opera Mini from Java, I get Error indication on the top bar
This happens when the CAB is installed in either SD card or Storage
What's wrong?
Thanks

I got this one before i think... but 'im quite sure the WVGA support does not come from opera mini but from the version of jbed you got.. you shoudl have the 20081205.5.1 version or soemthing like that. There was a post here for that version, supporting VGA and WVGA in fact.

go to add remove programmes and remove the previous version of OPERA-MINI then install the cab attached on page one of this thread.
it should work nicely then.
re versions :the text size is now spot on. accept no immitations, this is the real internet in your pocket and no mistake. lovely and fast too, loads the times homepage in about 8 seconds compared to opere mobile's 30 seconds.
well handy. it has to be said.
Opera Mobile 9.7 beta 1
Posted over at ppcgeeks by a member who found it on opera's ftp site.
cab:
ftp://ftp.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/970b1/
anyone try it yet? worth the dload?
I tried it.
There is no flash support
And Opera Turbo server has to be enabled in settings.
But even with Opera Turbo, the website load time is still the same.
So I think the server is not active yet.
It is very very smooth!!!
so just try it!
ive tried it, i think it is slightly quicker with opera turbo enabled, but seems a bit buggy. e.g. it wont load a url if you click on the go arrow next to the url, you have to press enter on the device keyboard.
scrolling is very smooth and quick though - this is a vast improvement
is there anyway to make this replace the opera in the ROM?
hello
someone how he would recover opera favorites
8.5 to pass the version 9.7 turbo
ps: translation of my text by google ( french - English )

i did have that in the beginning, but now it seems everything is working again, give it some time and soft reset a few times (i'm on miri 17 also)
I have onkolog super lite wm6.5ROM and works fine. Turbo is the best!
I have to say that for a beta (from Opera) it's pretty good....a bit slow rendering....but on the whole once the page is loaded an excellent browser.
Here's hoping there is more to come.

Hi All
I am using Opera 9.7 in Itje's ROM, Touch-IT
However, I have a problem.
Opera 9.7 supposed to have full AJAX support, yes?
but it seems don't understand any sense of AJAX!
for example no longer i can use iphone version of google reader ( www.google.com/reader/i ) or www.instantdomainsearch.com not showing result in realtime using AJAX...
Is there something wrong on my side? do you experience same? How fix this?
fixed!
Fixed this problem after about 1 month.
Stupid App!
It don't support AJAX when Opera Tubro is ON!!
I used to be quite happy with Opera but about a week ago something happened - it takes exactly 45 seconds for Opera to launch.
I went to opera website but I was not able to find the 9.5 so I could reinstall, only the 9.7 beta.
Any other ideas?
greg
The original 9.5 is located in your windows folder, in case you want to reinstall. It's part of the rom.
i found the file but taping on it does not do anything. it is a large file, almost 10MB. Is this the CAB to reinstall Opera? it does not seem to work.
it fixed itself.... stupid thing
Opera Mobile Official Thread
Hi
Have a look on the official thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486502
I recently upgraded from Opera 9.5 to 9.7. I chose to install 9.7 to the storage card, but it seems to have ignored my request and installed to the windows directory where 9.5 was.
I know when I got my phone if I clicked on a youtube video link it automatically opened it in HTC Streaming Media. Now when I click a youtube link it opens the youtube mobile application, but does not play the media, it just opens the app and nothing more.
The next issue is that SPB Shell has a internet favorites shortcut that looks like a star. When you click it, it shows you a quick list of your shortcuts / bookmarks. The problem is it's showing me the list of bookmarks from 9.5 and now 9.7 has replaced 9.5 it has it's own bookmark file somewhere. Does anyone know where SPB is pulling this from? Can I update the registry somewhere to point it to the new bookmark file?
And lastly, I noticed that Opera 9.7 and Opera 10 beta2 both use almost 30 megs of RAM. Task manager shows only 1 meg in use by the application, however free/available memory drops by almost 30 megs.
Thanks for any help you can provide,
Eric
i did a hard reset to compare some things. on stock opera youtube links are rtsp://......3gp links.
after installing 9.7 the video links on youtube look like this:
vnd.youtube:UjrzG4qluH8?vndapp=youtube_mobile&vndclient=mv-google&vndel=watch&vndxl=ClickLink
anyone know what this means?
why arent the links rtsp after updating opera?
I'm a little confused how the client is influencing the links coming from youtube. Does youtube present different html for each mobile client?

Remove one or both installed versions, soft reset and install another version.
See my signature for Opera mobile all versions
Hope it helps,
I tried all the "red" ones from the thread mentioned in your Sig.
