Need "advanced" help with Opera 9.7 / SPB Shell / Youtube - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

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?

installed it on my device but it seems like the setup didn't replaced anything. no i have do different versions off opera installed on my device
I tried to update it manually by extracting and copying just Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe over my existing installation, but it doesn't work. What files do I need to copy to get it work?

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

Internet tab issue/Mobile view issue

So i wanted to be able to watch flash videos in my browser so i installed a version of opera that i had for my TP. The install wetn bad and corrupted my original opera version so now i have a problem.
I uninstalled the opera that i put on and now my browser button on my internet tab does nothing. Ive since installed IE6, the new opera mobile, and the new opera mini but the shortcuts in my internet tab do nothing. I found the link to install the version of opera that came with my phone but there are like 30 different ones listed and im unsure which one to use.
Also, all of my browsers are showing pages in mobile view even though the option for mobile view isnt selected. I hate mobile view and skyfire is the only browser not doing this. But i dont want to use sky fire as my regular browser. Alittle help?
Bump......
You may want to just do a hard reset since all those browser installs/uninstalls have messed up things so bad. I know this isn't very helpful but a clean start just may be the way to go...

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"?

Anyone manage to sync Opera bookmarks?

I have Opera Mobile 9.7 and Opera Mini 5 installed, and I can't work out how to sync bookmarks on either of them. The instructions on the Opera site refer to sync options in both browsers which simply don't exist.
Does anyone know how on earth you can sync Opera Mobile/Mini bookmarks??
Not aware of a sync version for 9.7 Mobile other than using Opera Link on thier website. Mini should have it built into the settings.
The PC does have it though.
I've read the Opera Link page (and have a MyOpera account), but the instructions for syncing both Opera Mobile and OperaMini don't make any sense - i.e. they refer to "synchronise" options in both Opera Mobile and Opera Mini which don't actually exist.
???
Ok, here is what I know. I fell in love w/ Opera solely on the fact that you can sync bookmarks b/t however many PCs you log into. The promise of the same experience on the phone kind of falls short..
First off, in the regular mobile Opera, 9.X, even 10 beta and official, Opera Link has NEVER worked for me. Now, when I put Opera Mini on my shadow a while ago, I noticed that something created a folder in my bookmarks on my PC called 'Opera Mini' for some reason this folder is green, unlike the others. I have found that only the bookmarks inside this folder are what sink up and only in Opera Mini..hope this helps..
Thanks for your reply. I've noticed that I also have an "Opera Mini" folder in the Opera Link bookmarks page (but it isn't green). It contains a list of my bookmarks, but how can I get them to sync to Opera Mini 5 on my phone? ActiveSync doesn't sync them, and there's no Sync menu option in Opera Mini 5.
Considering this is such a big selling point for the Opera Browser family I'm surprised they've got it so badly wrong
itm, all I know is that when you go to settings in Mini 5, there is the link option, you just enter your log information and begins updating. I would let it hang in the browser for 3 mins, not letting ur phone sleep or shut the screen off. then to be safe, exit, soft reset, then check it out.
remember, the point of my reply was that all bookmarks you want on your phone must be in that Opera Mini folder on your PC and you must be properly logged into Opera Sync on the PC as well, just check everything, verify you got the green sync icon in the bottom left hand corner, maybe get Opera 10.50 (PC) to be safe..

I have Opera Mobile 10 Beta and the sync has worked fine with portable Opera (running off USB memory). All I remember doing is enabling Opera Link and the next time I opened Opera Mobile, the bookmarks synced. I don't believe I had to do anything on my mobile.

is there a way to set opera 7 as default in tf3d on 6.1?9

Just like the title says: I would like to set my wifes tp2 up to use opera 9.7 as the default browser. The snag i run into is setting it as the default on the internet tab on tf3d.
There are several ways to set the tf3d internet tab to use 9.5 and it handles it well: bookmarks and search from tf3d tab all are opera 9.5 intigrated. but as i said I would like to set hers to 9.7. Please please no comments on "just flash the rom". we dont want to go that route because after months of searching and experimenting with my own tp2, ever rom I have tried has either had a shlew of dibilitating bugs, or if they were perfectly operational they ate up 70% of the available ram after a few hours of use.
Yes I did search, and there doesnt seem to be any info on this. I even read through a lil over a hundred posts on the opera thread; nothing.
bizzump....
Not sure on 9.7, but when I installed 10, there was an option at the end of the install that asked if you wanted Opera to be the default browser. I said yes to that and everything is working fine.
I had tried a number of things prior to that to manually make the browser the default for everything, but nothing seemed to get it all. Maybe try re-installing Opera?
you should be able to its in the registry, you just need to put in the path to the .exe file for the opera u want as default.
Download latest Opera 9.7.35964 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5928300&postcount=1709
Install Caliban Opera Browser 9.70.35964.cab to the main memory, not storage card.
As with others here it did so automatically for me.
right I understand that it becomes the default. the problem is that I also want my bookmarks to continu to be added to the internet tab like I could with 9.5. when I tweaked 9.5 to be the default I was also able to tell tf3d that when I add a new bookmark, to display it on the internet tab. just installing 9.7 will use my previously existing bookmarks i set in 9.5 but will not allow me to create new ones that will transfer over to the internet tab.
Anyone?
For those of you who installed the 9.7 various cabs, how did you make your bookmarks appear in the internet tab?
Internet tab using this folder for the bookmarks: \windows\Opera9\opera6.adr
Opera 9.7 using different folder for the bookmarks: \windows\Opera9\profile\opera6.adr
Temp. solution:
Enable Opera 9.7 to using \windows\Opera9\profile\ folder
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Info]
"UseOperaBookmark"=dword:00000001
In Opera 9.7 edit/add new bookmarks then copy \windows\Opera9\profile\opera6.adr file to \windows\Opera9\ folder.
I made fix for Opera 9.7 bookmarks: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6099429
wow thank you. I will try this out this weekend and let you know . again thank you
