1. Is there any way to set Opera to only get mobile version of pages?
2. Is there any way to make Explorer go to landscape mode (my Opera does, but explorer stays in port.)
1. dunno, sorry!
2. Mine does, with Gyrator2 installed. Dunno if it is Gyrator that is doing it, or something else, as it was one of the first things I installed
hope that (half) helps!
1 . go to opera settings, display, and check mobile view
2. use gyrator

I can only browse in portrait moge. When I'm changing device orientation to landscape Opera is simply dessapearing
Any advice ?
Screen rotation
The HD has a g-sensor (it knows when you turn it), so the following applications makes most applications turn too.

Haven't ried GSen, thought gyrator works perfectly with opera and other applications
I know that.
The thing is Opera should work properli in both modes without any 3rd party apps. Mine is not. And I would be happy if there is a solution for me

Thank You
So many threads here..... sometimes is hard tyo fing the right one
well maybe a stupid question but i cant find the answer anywhere.
when i go to certain websites it redirects me to the mobile version of the website.
my touch diamond never redirected me.
it seems like the tp2 is identifying itself as a mobile device instead of a normal computer.
is there any way to change this?
I don't realy remember but in SKtools (or Advanced config) there is an option how IE identifies the device, anyway it is registry option
type "opera:config" to the address bar and open
then change the "User Agent" to a normal browser like IE, you can search for the "IE UA String" using Google
for example:"compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1"
i tried it but it keeps sending me to the mobile version of the websites.
i deleted the cookies and the history, changed it to "2" restarted my tp2 but still no difference.
i wonder if its possible at all....
Welcome to the forum
Strange issue....
Have you tried go to settings-advanced and select recognize as PC instead as handheld?
It´s working for me
Have a look here so you can choose the best Opera version for you:

I noticed that if you use the search hole on the Touch Flo web tab it will send you to google which in turn sends you to google re-formatted mobile versions of web pages. If you look at the bottom of the page there is a link to view the full page.
opera 10
Well if you use the opera that comes with the phone yes thats a problem but opera beta3 final is the one to use.
I just installed this, and i must say its much nicer than the default that comes with the TP2. But theirs a few things.
1. I cannot find the program to launch it again after i close it. When i look under the drop down of programs running, all thats listed is "Java FX", which when clicked, does take me back to the browser. Is their not its own icon? Or is their a way to link the new one to the "internet" tab in Touch flo?
2. Is their any way to keep it from poping up its own software keyboard?
[edit] Ok.. someone posted this solution::: Disable Inline Editing in Settings\Advanced...
3. When i type in the address bar, it sometimes, double types letters. Very annoying.
never mind
beta 5 unfortunately has problems with switches from landscape to portrait and vice versa.
when i pull out the keyboard in oder to type something of course the screen rotates. In about 50% of all cases the browser UI does not follow the rotation, but the screen just turns white.
opera 4 has no problems with screen rotations.
Java
Posted this question in another thread too but seems more appropriate here:
I came from the Mogul to the TP2 so I'm not so sure how to install and run Opera Mini 5. I'd like to try it, but do you still need a Java applet launcher to run it? Or can you just run it on the TP2 if you put the .jad and/or .jar files somewhere? Thanks.

Follow the instructions on the opera website:
"To try Opera Mini 5 beta, simply visit the address m.opera.com/next, using your phone’s default Web browser."
in case the OEM of your phone pre-installed a suboptimal java runtime environment (or even none) try this:

LOL, that link redirects us to this topic...
That said, I also have some minor problems with the new opera mini 5 beta. It look way more slick then the standard version of Opera, but there are a few things:
1. Just like Lyian stated, I as well hate the opera interface keyboard popping up and would really like to turn off this feature.
2. When I slide out my keyboard, the java applet notices this action and tells me to restart opera mini 5 :S (using JBlend, standard application deliverd on my tp2)
3. I would really like to have the possibility to make a shortcut to opera mini beta 5 in the start menu.
4. Everytime I restart the mini-browser, it asks me if it may connect to the network. I would really like to have the mini-browser never ask me this again.
Now I do remember that there were some solutions to my little problems mentioned above. With the old opera mini there were some tweaks that offered an solution to point 3 and 4, but I can't find them anywere. Does anybody know if they work as well for mini 5, and where I can find them? Does anybody have an solution to the other problems?
Thanks in advance,

use jbed instead of JBlend. JBlend can not handle screen rotation at all (no matter whether the java application can or not).

use jbed and make a link in the startmenu folder to the jbed executable with the parameter "-run s0_".

download the signed version of opera mobile
When I use the keyboard for typing an URL it results in a URL like xda-dddddevelopersssss.com or xdaaaaa-devvvvvelopers.commmm. I don't have any problems with the keyboard in other programs.

Found the other post someone posted.
Disable Inline Editing in Settings\Advanced...
I just started playing with Mini 5, and it's freaking awesome with esmertec jbed. It's got the speed of Opera Mini, but it has some degree of flicking and it can copy/paste text! Mini 4.2 allowed you to copy and paste text when you switched to text entry mode, but you had to change the keyboard to the old full keyboard to utilize CTRL C and CTRL V. I can now highlight text on pages. Plus tabbed browsing! Remarkable.
I looked for a signed version of 5, but I couldn't find it (I was able to install the signed version for 4.2). Is there a trick I'm not aware of?
Mini 5 works for some of the forums I visit. I was unable to post in the Yuku forums with 4.2, and it would format oddly unless I was in mobile view. Screen transitions are a lot snappier.
I've never had any luck with screen orientation transitions with Opera Mini, so it's not a big deal for me. I'm used to using it exclusively in portrait mode anyway.
I think I've found myself a new browser. Anyone have any tips or tricks to share?
ETA: I'd love to get the flicking speed higher.
Does anyone know how to get the clock/time to show on the top border/frame? It's on Opera Mini 4.2 and it'd be cool to have it on this browser also. Thanks in advance !
Hey xda´s I have a small problem with my manilla 2.5 on my hd2.
I installed opera 10 for looking how it is working and it made itself the default browser on manilla internet tab. Now I uninstalled the opera 10 and now there is internet explorer as default but the opera browser who comes with the stock rom is already on the device and working as usual when I go to "start" and click on "opera". So there is nothing deleted from the browser but how can I make it the default browser in manilla now because I hate the internet explorer!?!
With a registry editor go to: /HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shell/Rai/: DEFBROWSER/1/ and enter the following string: \Windows\OperaL.exe
If it's hard to edit registry for you, you can just navigate to Device\Windows\OperaL.exe or Device\Windows\Opera9.exe (do not really remember which one). When you run it, go to options, it will probably selected(in Advanced tab) that it is already default browser. Uncheck it, click confirmation button(left-bottom). Open the settings again and select it as default browser. Confirm and done!
Just open the original opera, go to settings/advanced and check the box with opera as a default browser
I did the same as you mate. When you get opera 9.7 working again, you may find that multi-touch doesn't work any more. I hope for your sake that it does, cos I needed to hard reset to get everything working again.
No, no problem so far, everything works fine, I also did some softresets and it is still working.
Oh thanks a lot you guys! Everything is working now like a charm
does anyone know how to change the default home oage from the manila internet tab?
hi all is it possible to run both the default opera and the newest opera together on same device, maybe install one to the storage card would it work
I'm using the beta Opera 10 from SD card and it works fine (very impressive). I did not delete the original version. It's handling of drop-down selection lists is particularly user-friendly. But only the original version will change to landscape mode when you tip the HD2 sideways.

there's an updated version that supports rotation. but still no pinch to zoom
I'll try it. Meanwhile, I like to 'tap screen to zoom' that Opera 10 does more than the pinch. It works like the closeup function on the HD2 camera.
just add the window class to the reg or use bsb tweaks to enable landscape.
beta 2 does seem as happy run of sd as it does in main memory. just remember to set the caches to storage card.
both apps are installed in different folders so they don't conflict.
I installed the beta 2 of opera 10 and i still have the orginal (Installed Opera 10 to phone) gonna delete the original, well at least for now.
OK ALL THANKYOU
so i can install to storage and the default opera will be untouched, great news ill try the latest beta then,
where do i get the latest beta as their no many which is newest
Try: http://www.opera.com/mobile/download/
When installing opera 10 is it possible for the web tab of sense 2.5 to open quick link favourites in this instead of the pre-installed opera version? Is it just a case of setting it as default? If this is the case would any browser work ie skyfire?
can you enable flash in the beta?
hi
do you know how to set as the default browser?
I didn't do it when instaling
try uninstall and installing again.
beta2 works great. improvement in almost/all every aspect
Runs much faster and overall great improvement. Now all that is missing is multitouch zoom and flash support and we are 99% satisfied!
In fact, you can install both in SD or device memory. They application has a different name. One is Opera and the other is Opera 10.
hi ,

but can't find the old ver in the program manager

The new version, 10 Beta 2u also auto-rotates to landscape mode.
What are the improvements over Opera 9 and are there any negatives?
- The negative point for Opera 9 in my opinion is that most of the time it wants to open the web page in 'mobile' version by default. This only reasons is so boring that it made me prefere Opera 10.
- With Opera 10 you will lose the Pinch & zoom.
Wow this new beta 2 is great! This version Does rotate without having to use tweaks. Browsing is wonderful!!
reset default browser to 9.7
for those that want the 9.7 as default browser try this
in opera 9 type
opera:
in the address bar. Then hit preferences and do a search for "first". A list should appear with something like first launch. tick this box, then hit save. exit opera. Open opera 9. it should now be default browser.
