I'm running 'Opera Mini 4 Beta 2' right now and have the following issues:
-On occasion, Opera will close when I go back to the Today screen. I'll press 'OK' and sometimes it takes me back to the Today screen with no problems. Other times I'll have to relaunch Opera and will have lost my spot. Any ideas here? I will say that when I launch it, it says 'suite_02 could not be found'. I tried to set up a shortcut but for some reason it wouldn't work on DCD's 2.1.0 ROM. Maybe this has something to do with it?
-Formatting. In order for Opera to format the page correctly, sometimes I'll have to turn 'Mobile View' & 'Landscape Mode' on and off before the text will be formatted. It could be on my end, but anyone know what this is all about? Is it just mobile view I need to set it as? It doesn't seem that way, but again - could be something I'm missing.
Thanks for any help.
The reason your shortcut is getting errors is because that "suite_02" refers to a specific 'slot' if you will inside your esmertec jbed java launcher. Try different combinations of numbers and you'll find one that works. If you have nothing else installed, often times it's suite 0. Here's my EXACT link's parameters if you edit the file in notepad.
28#"\windows\jbed.exe" -run "s0_"
hope this helps
Forgot to mention, I'd go ahead and download the final opera 4 mini. It's a lot more stable. I run mobile view all the time also, fwiw

yeah you should do that cause im running opera 4 final and it runs great
OK, will definitely try OM4 Final. One quick question though:
How will upgrading to OM4 affected my jbed shortcut? Thank you to KMart for the suggestions, but for whatever reason, nothing really seems to work. Should I uninstall everything and see what OM4 does?
This link should help:

The instructions work just the same for Opera 4 Final. I am using final.

the loading screen just gets stuck & then nothing else happens. any chance of getting a standalone opera browser installer so that i can reinstall it on my athena? i.e. the opera browser version found in AP4 & not the 9.33 version thanks guys ian
Haven't had that problem, but when I go into opera:config some of the settings won't save. The number of tabs (stuck on 5 even though at first it appears to save a higher number) and turning off the password cache (it won't go away) are two that come to mind.
I also really don't like the lack of scroll bars in this version of Opera.
Yes, it seems several people have complained of this issue. I also have the issue. Seems to be lack of memory available, try remove some today plugins, set keyboad and dialer to basic, soft reset and see if Opera responds better..For me, that works, but not worth the trouble. I also would like the old version in a cab.
Yes, same with mine too. Need to free up memory occasionally.
Me3 - A soft reboot seems to clear it. This Opera is flupping ace, I've been boring everyone with it at work
Ltxda posted a cab for opera 9.4 (in ap4) on the forums a bit ago.Dont have the thread on hand but i do believe it was titled "opera 9.4 be a not 9.33"

I had experienced this few times. Looks like not enough memory.
Opera 9.5
Hi,
Irus has just released his version of WM6.1 rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2176129&postcount=1). In his addons there is a cab named "Opera_9.5__Build_405__Fixed_Uninstall__VGA.cab". I have installed it on my original HTC WM6 rom. I did it on my SD so I can use it or use old version of Opera supplied with my rom.
I can say that I do not have any problems with memory. I am using pBar which shows me memory all the time, so I could see that Opera (the new one) takes a lot of it but as normally I have well over 60 MB, while in Opera it drops down about 10 MB.
However I hate it. No scrolling bars, finger scrolling is mostly not working. It behaves completely unreliably. Some pages are messed (in old opera they were shown properly) and so on. And no vueFlow. In old version it works and I am using it all the time.
Hi Tadeusz - did you have problems before? I use AP4.0 and have had absolutely no problems with Opera, it seams to be a conflict with other apps eg Garmin XT and Adobe reader 2, have you tested this version with those?
Anyone have a link to the Opera 8.65 that was in stock and other roms?
I've been testing different versions of Opera mobile on my xv6800.
I often get a message indicating that "out of memory - close a tab"
I only have 1 tab open, so the application crashes.
Any tips or tricks to use Opera to browse graphic-intense pages? example: www.movie.com
Why post the same question in 2 different threads.....one is enough...
mdjkim...
Did you get an answer to this. I do not like IE so I downloaded the Opera 9.5 beta and I get "out of memory" all this time. Not sure why...I can be using gps, tt7, gm & ls and never run out...so what gives
searched but cannot find an answer
This is a known bug in the beta version of opera mobile 9.5. I recently updated to their latest build and was surprised that they still hadn't fixed it. Anyway, the problem is that it's beta software and it has some bugs (and probably more than a few memory leaks). I'm sure it will work great when it's finished, but when your running beta software you have to be prepared for this stuff.
I recall reading somewhere that if you turn off javascript you won't get the error anymore, i think i'll try it and report back
So I've just got round to installing Opera 10 on the phone, slow I know but having done so, I think I know why I was being so slow to do so.
Basically every page I try to go to, I get "The service is overloaded or offline. Please try again later." So hit refresh and the page loads without issue. Move onto next page and get the same error message, hit refresh and it loads. How annoying is that? Any ideas on why this would do this every single time?
Does anyone have any ideas?
Do you use a proxy?
Try looking in operareferences
Perhaps a setting over there is troubling you.
No proxy being used.
Been through all settings, which are set to default. Opera 9.7 works fine on its default settings and can't see anything different between the two versions to suggest why 9.7 loads a page first time v 10 where I have to do a double load of every page to view it.
Except from the standard solutions like clean your history, your cache, your cookies, I cannot suggest any other solution.
Thanks Wilco. Unfortunately clearing everything (not that Opera 10 really had anything in it as haven't exactly used it yet) didn't solve the issue.
I've pretty much got a bog standard HD2, in otherwords haven't really done any tweaks etc but just maybe maybe I changed something using HD2Tweak that might have caused this but somehow I doubt it. Anyone else using Opera 10 expericenced this?
Yeah I get exactly the same issue, not everytime though and only with certain websites. I just put it down to the site being busy and just tried again and all loaded fine. I've no idea what could be causing it as the older version of opera I used did'nt have the issue.
Thanks ritzie for confirming I'm not the only one with the issue. The only thing is it's every site I go to and not just one, which is why it's so annoying, shame as I'm preferring certain functions of Opera 10 over 9.7.
I've just tried to replicate the problem but haven't been able to. Have you tried adjusting the settings in opera, also does it still happen when you're connected by Wifi?
i have same issue .. using o2uk hd2 with opera 10 .. any solution?
What version of Opera 10 are you guys using ?
I get the same problem when I first start opera no matter what site I go to.
I'm using opera mobile 10.0
Anyone got any ideas how to solve this??
Try to turn off Opera Turbo from settings
im using Opera mobile 10 works for me!
I have a Sprint Touch Pro 2 with stock WM6.5 ROM.
When I type in Opera Mini (say posting a forum message), after a while pressing a space bar (or a comma / period sign) starts erasing the previous word. This is very repeatable. Also once it starts happening, it affects any other keyboard, including the hardware one.
At first I thought it was related to FingerKeybd, so I yesterday uninstalled it and jumped through some hoops to get my English ROM device to type in two languages using HTC native keyboard. However, it appears the bug is still there, although in a modified version - now pressing space erases letter "I" only.
The problem is only with Opera Mini - I can type anywhere else with no issues. I also have a strong suspicion that it's somehow related to suggested words option being turned on, however I use this feature and don't want to give it up.
I did submit a bug to Opera team but it was immediately dismissed as something specific to my particular unit.
I am curious if anyone else had this problem... surely I can't be the only one !
I have the same problem. Thats horrible.
Same problem here. I have autocomplete turned off but it's still happening. It will also erase "ierd" if you type wierd but won't erase it if you type starting with another letter. The crazy thing is it cleared up for a while until I did a hard reset and erased the "fix".
I don't have this bug anymore. I think it may be related to TF3D (Sense). I stopped using Sense several months ago - got tired of lags and memory issues, tried Titanium and never looked back. This seems to have also fixed my Opera keyboard issue, somehow. I've been through many hard resets (trying different things, screwing up, hr to get back to basics) and so far no issues with keyboard. It may be not related as much to Sense as to CHT running on top of it; don't know - try switching to Titanium and see if that helps.
I used to use mini 4.2 and really liked it, but couldn't use the newer versions because the keyboard is just too buggy. I don't really remember what the keyboard did, I just remember that typing was nearly impossible. I use Resco for my sip.
I had the same thing, search Opera mini forum for "kuifje_opera". It turned out to be the autocorrect feature.
i dont face this problem.. perhaps try reinstalling it, + delete cache files? works fine for me! what about in you HW Keyboard, any problems there?
same
Same problem on rx3115 ROM 1.01.11a.

any fix?
Try to use Opera mini 5 beta. From my experience with opera mini for about year I can say that the previous beta version i more stable and there are few problems on the rendering of sites and keyboard input in text fields compare to latest 5.1 version. The only thing I do not like in beta version is no so smoothly scrolling vs 5.1.
It is not a Opera problem. Here is what I did and get rid off it:
- Open Start Menu
- Go to: Settings>Personal>Input
- Now you are in Input Method, from the tabs above click Word Completition and uncheck everything there. Now go on the tab Options (on the right) and uncheck Capitalize first letter of the sentence and Scroll upon reaching the last line.
- Click OK (bottom right) and exit the Start Menu.
- Thats it!
This is what I did and solve the same problem, now everything is great when typing texts.
I am using Windows Mobile Pro 6.5.3, so I don't know if it's gonna work on 6.0, 6.1 or 6.5, but considering that this is an all WinMo option, I think it would work on any WinMo OS. Try it, you ain't gonna screw anything
Cheers.
So now that the new Firefox 4 Beta 5 is out, I personally think Firefox is the best Tablet browser available. Its unique approach to tabs works well on a tablet, as does the back button. The earlier versions were super slow, but I think this new one has caught up a lot. I now prefer it greatly to Dolphin HD.
I have installed the following add-ons to maximize my Nook Color internet use:
-Quit Fennec- force closes after last tab closes, a must
-Phony- easy User Agent changer, another must
-readability- fixes messy pages to fit
-Full Screen- Does what it says and makes browsing a joy
What do you all think?
I agree. Seems stable and fast (compared to Dolphin). I also used Sync to import all my passwords and favorites from my desktop.
I'll give it a try, it was even slower and klunkier than Dolphin HD last time I tried it, I use Opera 10 on my NC and it's great. I've tried Mirin too but something about that browser bugs me, can't really put my finger on it.
Can you guys post an apk? I can't get to it from market or Mozilla's website.
Thanks for the tip. Every browser seems to have 1 thing wrong with it so ill definitely give this one a try. I would like opwlera best but i can't get over the terrible way it handles initial zoom.
I agree, I can't find a working link to download the apk. I fennec but it installed an update that didn't work and now I can't install Firefox. Bummer
Would appreciate the apk as well. Thanks
FTP is your friend, as old-school as it is.
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.o...roid-r7/en-US/fennec-4.0b5-en-US.eabi-arm.apk
Thanks for the link. But everytime I try to install this, it seems to progress, asks about permissions, but at the end, says "program not installed". I've enabled usb debugging, used titanium backup to uninstall the previous left overs of Fennec, and I still get this message. A little stumped.
is this compatible with Android 2.1 with the latest dalingrin OC? I cannot get the apk to install. launched the Package Installer and installation would not get through saying "Application not installed"
Also each time I start the installer, it would warn that the app will replace an existing appl, but i do not currently have a fennec/firefox appl installed. Titanium Backup does not show any fennec/firefox app.
Can someone help please?
thanks
finally able to install by tweaking the the build.prop as suggested here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=938114&highlight=firefox
if anyone else was having the same problem. that tweak fixed it for me.
I gave this a try based on this thread. While I do like the UI and it has a snappy response, the app itself is not ready for prime-time. If you try to enter numeric information into a field, it causes the insertion point to jump around. For example, I tried to visit the website for a local library and when it asked me to enter in my library card #, instead of "1234..." it would go "1243...". The insertion of characters as I typed them magically skipped around in the field. This was not isolated to just that website. Happened on a registration form on Adobe's site as well. Very annoying.
Looking forward to future updates.

I personally think Miren browser is the best for the nook. I have it set so that that status bar/tabs stays around all the time, and the floating buttons always hide. The only issue is that it doesn't work well with image links when they are opened in a new tab. In the new tab it will instead go to the link of the picture, not the actual link to the website. I will try this though, I tried the beta a long time ago so it will be nice to see how far they have come.

I have noticed this too. The only (painful) solution I have found is to very slowly type with a pause in-between each letter. Thank goodness it can sync with my desktop Firefox and slurp up all my passwords to avoid this mostly.
OMG SERIOUSLY? I tried Firefox last night for about 20 minutes and it GROUND TO A HALT each time I tried to search or put input in the URL bar. It'd freeze, if I tried to do anything I'd get the FC/Wait dialog, I hit Wait several times.. Finally killed it, tried again... Same thing. Eventually it'd load the page.
If you all think it's great, I wonder wtf is going on with my install. Maybe I need to uninstall it, make sure any old sdcard stuff is cleaned (I had it installed a few betas ago) and try again. Totally unusable for me right now.
I'm hoping the FF Deskop Ad Block Pro extension works with the FF mobile soon. That can make the internet a much more bearable place.
Works for me. But can't t flash to work. Works in dolphin and stock
