Opera for Pocket PC Beta 2 & New JasJar Firmware

Dear All
It appears that there is an incompatability between the new JasJar firmware and the latest release of Opera.
The address bar is using the incorrect font and it appears as Wingdings!
The button text is also the same.
Can anyone else confirm this please?
Regards
JB

This has been discussed in the Opera beta tester forums..
You'll find it at the download page of Opera..

I tried the solution with Tweaks 2k2, but it did not work.
I changed the system font to Courier and the font displayed properly in Opera, but when I changed back to Tahoma, and Opera started displaying Wingdings again.
Any ideas? Am I doing something wrong?
I am running the newest ROM on my JasJar (released a few days ago) and the beta 2 version of Opera is running from the storage card.
Previously I was running the hacked Treo verson of Opera which also was displaying wingdings with the new ROM.

If you had searched, you should have found this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=43624

Actually I searched "Opera Wingdings" and found this thread. I would suggest that similar threads be merged. :shock:
Both of the first 2 solutions work if I want to use Courier New, but they do not work for me when I change back to Tahoma.
However, copying Verdana.ttf from my desktop to the \Windows folder on the JasJar, and then a software-initiated soft reset solved the problem.
Thanks for linking me to the thread.

T-mobile ameo opera problem

Hi, has anyone had a problem with the opera/web and walk browser, coming up with a unsigned application error, on the tmobile rom, if so or if not can you send me the rom version you are using!! muchos appreciatos

Opera problem
Yes I have. Did you do a hard reset? I have seen this three times now after hard resetting my device. What I discovered was that half of the applications form the extended_rom were not installed including Opera. The shortcut is! This one is probably part of te rom.
To solve this install gsfinder or another explorer and go to \extended_rom\
Now open install all the cab files. Your problem is solved afterwards.

why not upgrade to the new (beta) version of opera.
http://get.opera.com/pub/opera/winmobile/865b/
the msi worked for me. i did do a sprite back up first though incase

opps... just discovered that the beta expires july first. sorry ignore my previous post

Thats odd, my advantage already has v8.65 (obviously, not a beta either), what version does the Ameo have installed?

DOPOD has the 8.65 installed already as well (not beta)

My Ameo has also v8.65 and no beta.

sorry
my stoooopid
my ameo has 8.65 (2211)- i just downloaded the beta with out checking first.
derrrrrrrr

i have a weird fault with opera on my ameo... it will launch fine the first time i load it. but then if i close and try and launch it again later i get the four colours spinning egg timer thin forever, only way to get it running again is soft reset..... anyone else got this
looked in running progs and killed everything there too..
possibily due to spb plus? or anyone got both running together fine

I also have a problem After two hard resets today, my opera vanishes from my device all together!
I'm not sure if it is the only missing software but is the only one i've noticed.
Any idea there I can get the cab to install it?
Imaginarynumber, you found only the beta? is it possible to get out of the provided cd?

english version of ultimatelauncher

I just downloaded UL and i love it, but all the menu's are in German. anyone know of an English version?

There you go...

do you know where i can get a icon package for this program. extension *.ico

It uses standard windows icons...
You can find *.ico files all over internet for windows, aslong as you use 32x32 and 48x48 for animated icon then its easy.
Tabs must be big enough for icons..

hi, could someone upload a .cab installer for this?

Hi,
the .cab installer is available at the moment only in deutch language...
BYE, Bobo

it would be nice to be able to use icon .dll files. currently i have an icons.dll that has a bunch of icons inside that i used for cLaunch. This program will only see the first icon. is there a way to make it use any of the other icons in the file?

1. go to site http://pocketland.de/product.php?prod_id=39534

Guy! Is this v1.2 or?

I've used some of this icons from this website.

Anyone having a problem with it freezing when it starts up? It happens to me when I have a voicemail. The active sync would open and then I can't do anything. I ended up hard reseting my phone to be able to run my phone again. I like this program. I just don't want to keeping hard reseting my phone everytime I get a voicemail and soft reseting before I clear it.

this is one sweet app.
anyone know how to enable the Task and Schedule today plugins to work in the tabs?

Anyone buy the full version yet? I tried this program and loved it, so I bought it from Handango.com. The registration seemed to work, but at some point I got "not activated" all over the screen. I went back into the configure program, and the registration code went back to all 0's. I've since been flashing a few different rom's (trying to find the best 6.1 for my 8525) so I haven't reloaded it yet. Hopefully it was a freak thing, and it'll work once I reload it.

If your talking about the stock plug ins then they aren't really plug ins. I have yet to find a 3rd party software that hey can be used with.

I guess he wanted to say if it was possible to chose Calendar and Tasks as a tab. I really don't know this isn't possible - it simply doesn't show in the plugins list

I had the same problem when i first installed it, phone freezes then activesync opens and the phone stops to respond, had to hard reset too .
I made sure that all active today plugins are not dsiplayed ( settings,today, uncheck them ) then installed ultimatelauncher, loaded those plugins into seperate ultimatelauncher tabs. been working fine so far, I had no problems ,been two days now .
For the *.ico files, i converted few *.tga icons to *.ico , ultimatelauncher would see them but won't load them .. so i figured it could be the size of the icon, a bit big for ultimatelauncher ( 40 X 40 ) .. will try with smaller icons later .
Edit : tried with ( 16 X 16 ) icons and still ultimatelauncher won't load them

Changing default Browser to new Opera

Hi,
Couldn't find the answer with search...
Just installed then latest version (beta) of Opera and it's quicker.
How can I make this default browser when using the TF3D tab and TF3D favorites.
(I have clicked the 'use as default button' within the Opera menu, but it doesn't work?
Any ideas?
Thanks

I am looking for this solution as well, I think we have to play with registry, but I don't know how.
Any advice from anyone ??

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\EFBROWSER\
Value 0="Opera"
Value 1="xxxxx"
xxxxx = Location of opera.exe
It should do the trick!

Im running what I guess is latest opera 2128 and its at least 3 times faster than 1938 which came in my ROM.
The rotation function works flawlessly 98% of the time.
That annoying bug that brought up the phone display is gone.
Well what I did was uninstall the Opera that came with ROM using normal procedure then I just installed the New Opera and soft reset and it linked to the TF3D launcher automatically.
I didn't touch the registry at all.
I don't remember if when prompted to install on Internal or Device what did I choose. I believe I choosed Internal Storage.
I provide you with the .cab I used. LINK.
Greetings to all.

Woow I don't know on my ROM it appears on the uninstall list.
Maybe try installing and you will get the overwrite option.

This is my probelm also
THere are no opera on the remove program list...
And I already install the 9.5 opera (beta) from www.opera.com
If someone solve the problem, please share with us, HOW?? thanks
Cheers

Installing the CAB file for Opera v9.5 2128 will first REMOVE three old files: Opera 9/OperaL/OperaPreL and then install the new files under the same names Opera 9/OperaL/OperaPreL. No need to update the registry because the same file name (OperaL) is used in HKLM.
Jus to be recoverable, I renamed the original Opera 9/OperaL/OperaPreL (1938) to Opera 9 (o)/OperaL(o)/OperaPreL(o) and save them in the Internal Storage.
Opera was NOT listed in the original All Settings->Remove Programs. The CAB file for v9.5/2128 deployed and updated Opera to v9.5, but it doesn't generate Opera in the list of Remove Programs either.
The beta version is indeed sensibly faster, but some white frames/text boxes are present during screen transitions, which will need to be removed in the final version. I am keeping Opera v9.5 in presence of such minor flaws because it is more responsive and faster.

Sorry Marios96, I have tried this registry trick after installing Opera (beta from there website) to the "Internal Storage" , but whenever I am clicking on the Browser icon in the Internet tab, it is keep opening the old one (as I have just installed the new version because there wasn't any option to uninstall the old one).
I have even soft-reset the PPC as well but no joy.
Any other trick ???

When you click on/install the CAB file that was copied over to your Internal storage, you were asked whether you agree to remove the old version of Opera. The old versions (again, for three files listed above) of Opera will be removed after you answered "yes" and the new versions under the same file names will be copied over. Because the file names are the same, the registry values are kept unchanged. Are you sure you are still using the old version after installing the new version? What did Opera say in Help->About Opera? I am seeing Version: 9.5; Build: 2128... And I did feel the speed

I have tried to install the Beta from Opera website, during the installation it DID NOT ask to remove the previous version, just simply installed on the Internal Storage.
But once I have tried to installed the "Sergio PC - Post 4" attached Cabit DID asked me to remove the previous version, and I said yes, but at the end of the installation it said "Installation Unsuccessfull".
Help required in this issue, as 9.5 is really faster than the pre-installed one.

Sid

Any ideas?

Hmmmm.. So the remaining option I have got left is to install the Beta version from the Opera website to the Internal Storage and keep it as an Icon under programs. But sadly my Internet Tab is useless after that.
Thanks for your help

What about if I will take the 3 files backup, and then overwrite the new version EXE's into the windows folder, obviously with the same name ????
What do think guys ??

[HELP] Windows Live Messenger Mobile

I use WLM 10.6.0053.1000 and somehow my emoticon screen going weird like in the screenshot... I reinstalled, redownloaded from live site but seems like the emoticon won't show up for unknown reason.
I tried to check if there is any missing files but all files are OK.
Registry check also OK.
I'm using WM6.1 official v1.77 i-Mate 9502.
Please help me how to restore those emoticons....

Anyone? No one know the solution?

Arghhhh.... No answer and no one can answer.... >,<

Seems like the files are missing. Where did you install it, on the device, flashdisk or storagecard? I'd browse for the files first and see if I could find them.
Btw, I think this post might get moved since it aint really a post that belongs in this forum

Umm, maybe but I don't know what files are required to display that emoticon.
Yesterday I reinstalled the WLM (downloaded from live site http://mobile.microsoft.com/live/en-us/mobile/default.mspx).
For installation, it didn't give any option, it's all automated and installed in the device (precisely in the Windows folder).
But FYI, I checked the installation using SKTools and Pocket Mechanic, the installation is OK..
No files missing and registry are intact. Maybe other files (the system files) are missing? or some registry keys are missing?
Thanks for your help... ^^
I'll be waiting for your info for restoring the emoticon... ^^
Yup, sorry for posting in the wrong subforum. Moderators,please help me to move this thread to correct subforum. Thanks.. ^^

Seems strange... I checked all the system files in Windows folder, none missing/replaced by files with same name...
Maybe the registry?

And here we go... No one knows about this problem...
No answer as well...

Seems that none of developers here able to solve this... Or they don't know anything about this issue...

Up! Anyone here can resolve this? Or ppl here can't even solve small bug like this?

Useless to ask here... =,="'

Please upload here your 10.6.0053.1000 cab. I have a look of it.

I just install the 10.7.xxx available from microsoft's site and still like in the first post. T,T
Do I need to upload the latest WLM from Microsoft's site?
And thanks for your help...
And I think, it might be something from registry's missing (maybe something in HKEY_Classes_Root)....
If I do HardReset, all is solved, but it's pain for me to reinstall all apps and do re-setting all things inside... >,<

Sorry I need the 10.6.0053.1000 cab before I can help you. It`s not on the windows side. Please upload it here. This was the first cab that you install or was in the rom and I must test it. No cab - Sorry no help.

Wait, I must search the cab file first. Because I already overwrite it with new one.

And the old one that came with my ROM is v10.6.0034.0800.
The v10.6.0053.1000 I downloaded it from Microsoft's site also. And I will try to recover that installation file from my harddisk.
