I wondered if Mozilla would ever come out with a mobile browser! I gotta check it out.

to me really ... it looks dull .... no like cool graphics,,, no 2008 and beyond look... but it has no flash ... no disrespect.. to you or mozilla but i excepted better from them but who knows .... maybe its only a beta or something

it is beta...
but come on what would you expect from an aplication on a mobile phone... what about the graphs of opera or IE are they much better...

hmm how does this differ from the older versions? because ive 'used' them and it was awful.
first time i tried it, it wouldnt even start, second time in interface was so difficult to navigate...

Is there a smartphone version of the browser, too?

I would assume that they are talking about a smartphone browser! Opera mini is a smartphone browers and we are a forum for smartphones

I would assume you try it out first before making comments.
I have downloaded it serveral times. And the Mozilla site and FAQ hints at this being a ppc based browser.

i have tried it and is working purfect.... i wouldnt make a post with out a reason... and is very stable as well...

I have too on my dash with 6.1 and am not able to browse or use it. it loads up but i cannot navigate through the browser to select anything. hence why i bothered to ask questions

minimo "works" on Windows Mobile 5 and later devices, both pro and standard. the seemingly un-navigable interface can be operated with buttons, but I can never recall what does what and it always just starts doing weird things, after a lot of struggling.

After reinstalling it about 7 times it finally worked by using the soft buttons to navigate through. However, not stable at all to browse at least on my device.

It takes forever to load and closes when underload. Opera Mini FTW.

kept crashing.

It has promise on a ppc. It looks too much like a touch application. Opera Mobile works much better as a full web browser for the Dash at the moment and Mini for quick viewing.

seems like its causing my phone to crash because its a memory hogger by far.

Never got darn thing to load
After installing Minimo would always hang up. Pity as I love Firefox,(but I love Opera too) On puter I use Opera for all research ect in English and Firefox for Portuguese. My vote is with Opera Mini

Hi,
Could someone post the registry settings for IE as the default browser? I installed Opera and selected "yes" to make it my default browser. After uninstalling Opera, IE does not work.

Is Opera availeble for the htc s620???

Dave,
This thread will likely help.

Cheers!

Never mind. I did a hard reset. See zip file for default registry settings and a text file noting Opera browser registry changes if you choose to use Opera as your default browser. Opera does not change the registry settings back when you uninstall the software.
The text file of reg changes came from a post on Opera's forum.

Opera mini as default browser
I love Opera mini as my main browser. Is there any way to make opera mini the default browser when a link is clicked in a email for example.

just do a google search for opera mini.

I cant find it in the menu settings for opera mini. Maybe the option you mentioned was for opera mobile. I was looking for the Java based Opera Mini version as this version translates the web pages into smaller packages to reduce the size of pages and also make browsing faster. Which brings me to another question. Is there a way to launch Java Programs instantly without always going through the Java Midlet application?

Yup, because I have just created that thead (the Smartphone General forum is brand new)
In the General forum, I've posted the original version some 5-6 months ago.

I enjoyed using Opera Mini for some pages that render bad with PIE. However, recently, I have been unable to load any pages with the T-Zones proxy. Anyone experiencing the same problems?

Opera Mini 4
So it just got released...It's pretty nice, it has a built in mouse that you operate with your cursor, looks nice..Check it out

Yeah, a must have on your device, the cursor reminds me of Microsoft's Deepfish and sphere!

I never got to try deepfish, when I got the link it wasn't working, but this is nice. Although I was on myspace trying to respond to a message and it just kind of stopped responding..but besides that it's great

Here is a link for anyone that cares to check it out:
http://www.operamini.com/

Personally speaking, Opera mini plays better than Deepfish. For example, I have never logged in this forum when I used Deepfish. On the other hand, Opera mini doen't have this problem.

Deepfish was 'alpha' -- Opera Mini is release -- not much room for comparison... Deepfish was great, in that you could view the whole page and zoom in on a particular area, I just installed Opera Mini 4, but it doesn't do that -- at least I can't find a setting to make it do that, just shows the page regular size...

Opera 10 Mobile Browser

Okay so I downloaded Opera 10 for windows mobile phone. Save the .cab file to my memory card. Ran the .cab file and saved the program to my phone (Tilt2). I was giving the choice to set it as my default browser and I clicked yes. After it downloaded I was asked if I wanted to open Opera, I said no because I like to do a soft reset after I download and install programs. So after my phone came back up I went to my internet tab and brought up my NEW BROWSER. Things was looking great but I noticed the zoom feature on my Tilt didn't work with my new browser and noticed that when I tapped the menu button nothing happened. Well the screen kinda greys a bit like it's thinking but nothing happens. I was disappointed, the website had me excited to download Opera 10 for mobile. I removed the program from my phone using the remove program program. Now here is my problem:
1. IE has become my default browser
2. How do I get Opera 9 back as my default browser?
I went into "windows" and found some many Opera icons that I don't know which one was which. I do think I found the right icon, I believe it is the one that has the Opera icon and next to it, it says "Opera 9". I clicked on it and it took me to my home page that I have/had saved so I know that is the right icon. I just need to know how to set it BACK as my default browser.
Can someone please help me out? I'm so
UPDATE: The icon is not Opera 9, it's the Opera icon and next to it, it says Opera Browser. Hope this helps someone out that can help

It would have been easier to answer the question and then also give the link for further information. I mean you took the time and all to respond; how hard would it have been to say "No currently there is no way to enable the zoom bar, but this thread is worth watching regarding that and many other pieces of information" Instead of a blanket "look at this thread with one bazillion posts and maybe you will find your answer before a new version of opera is released"?

Opera Mobile 10: integration with Touch HD

Dear all,
Opera Mobile 10 is great. It's fast, smooth, and with plenty of useful functions. Finally we have a browser that compares to the iPhone's safari.
Unfortunately, if you install Opera Mobile 10 on your Touch HD, you lose some of the features of the pre-installed Opera 9. Here is a list:
Vibration when clicking a link
Opera 9 makes a short vibration when I hyperlink is tapped. Opera 10 misses this feature.
Solution:
None at the moment.
Special URL keyboard
In Opera 9, a special keyboard appeared when typing a URL in the URL bar: it contained a ".com" handy key, as well as other useful symbols. In Opera 10, the standard keyboard appears when typing URLs.
Solution:
None at the moment.
Touch HD arrow as back button
In Opera 9, the "left arrow" button of the Touch HD worked as back button in the browser. In Opera 10, this button simply minimizes Opera.
Solution:
None at the moment.
Internet tab push pages open Opera 9
In Manila/Sense internet tab, when clicking on a push page, Opera 9 is opened.
Solution:
Flash new ROM
Flashing a new ROM with Opera 10 pre-installed solves this problem. I am looking for something less "extreme", though, like a registry edit or cab file.
SSMaHo
Possible to use SSMaHo to redirect links in Manila. See:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493810
and post #3. Not tested yet. Thanks to Koffein Schluck.
Internet tab push pages pick bookmarks from Opera 9
In Manila/Sense internet tab, when adding a push page, it is possible to pick it from the bookmarks. Unfortunately, the bookmarks are those of the default Opera 9.
Solution:
Flash new ROM
Flashing a new ROM with Opera 10 pre-installed solves this problem. I am looking for something less "extreme", though, like a registry edit or cab file.
Opera 9 cannot be uninstalled
Solution:

Flashing a new ROM with Opera 10 pre-installed solves this problem. I am looking for something less "extreme", though, like a registry edit or cab file.
I started this thread hoping to collect solutions and workarounds for all these issues, hoping to make Opera Mobile 10 perfectly integrated with Touch HD and Manila/Sense. Please help me! Reply to this message either proposing valid solutions or highlighting other missing features that I did not discover.
Hope to fill out this list with solutions soon!

a simple solution for 4,5 and 6 would be flashing a rom that has opera 10 installed by default

Solution for point 4:
There is a software called SSMaPa, you can RElink the shortcuts in Manila! Use the forim search to get it! Its free and not so difficult

I dunno if this is relevant or not, but the only thing stopping me from moving over to opera 10 is the lack of any decent zoom function. anyone know how to enable the zoomslider? or anything that allows you to zoom properly again? atm, i have to go to settings and adjust the zoom level from there, which is hardly intuitive

Thanks for your answer. Yes, you are certainly right. I'll write this in the post.
On the other hand, I also would like a less "extreme solution". I have a ROM I am quite happy with ([ROM][WWE][26.02.2010] Miri WM 6.5 21893 :: V 38.0 [DISCONTINUED]), because it's fast, stable, and it has got what I needed. Plus, I don't want to flash a new ROM and hence lose all my data and configurations. Also, I think that many people don't really want take the time and effort to flash other roms. Hence I this post.
Cheers

Guys,
Opera 10 final has an options whether to set O10 default or not in the end of .cab installation process. i had such question, so no any 3rd parti softs requiered!!!

Same for me. Opera 10 is fine, fast but the zoom doesn't work like it should be (why it is now based on the page width???). Therefore it is not usable for me.

My solutions:
1. Install Touchresponse, great open source app, works in background, vibrates when you touch the screen.
2. Install Fingerkeyboard, has customizable buttons for .com, .org, .net, etc.
4. Remove internet tab from manila, put Opera 10 icon in programs tab - no flashing, installing or unistalling required.
Those work well for me.

Default internet browser

I recently installed Opera Mini and found it to be so much faster than either Explorer or Opera, so I use it all the time. How do I replace the default browser for internet on the home screen (Opera) to Opera Mini?

question too simple?
Hi, I'm still frustrated with this. I have the NRG Sense2.5 with cookie homepage, with Opera10 as the default browser. Anyone know of a simple way to switch to OperaMini as default?

I once looked into this to change the default browser from IE back to Opera. The IE included in 6.5 has a "do you want IE to be the default browser?" question. I checked yes and wanted to change it back to Opera. After some googling and research, I found there were about 6-10 registry changes for this to happen. Ugly! But then, I found a way inside of Opera to make the change via the menus (using the http://about page).
But, to answer your question, I don't think it's "too simple"... it's too hard
You might try to see what you can do with the http://about page of any given browser.
