I've installed Opera 9.5b, than removed it and now MSIE is my default browser :S.
How do I set the built-in Opera as default browser again?
I've managed to associate html files with Opera, but links are still openned in MSIE (e.g. links is RSS reader).
Thanks!

I had Opera installed on my 8525 and when I selected it as the "default" browser and I click on a URL link from, say... an email message, I received an error saying that Opera is an "...unsigned application" and refused to load Opera. If I do NOT select Opera as the default browser and only Pocket IE is, then no problem.
Is this an issue with WM5, Hermes, or Opera?
Does anyone know if there is a setting for Opera 9.5 to force web pages to load or browse as a desktop display? Internet Explorer has a setting that allows you to browse as either a desktop or mobile device.
On Opera, even with "Display - Mobile view" unchecked, some sites, notably CNN and FOX news, automatically redirect to their mobile website. Is there another setting I'm missing or is my Opera not functioning correctly.?
***Figured it out: A speed tweaking cab I installed had a default string in the Custom User Agent that allowed these sites to detect it as a mobile device and redirect. Could not change the string (would automatically default) so I'll probably have to remove the cab.
I need to kno if there's a way too. this has been annoying la mierda out of me
Hello there!
I often get links in email that I have to open from there. Unfortunately it always open in Internet Explorer instead of my default and more usable browser - Opera. Is there a way to make web links from email client to open in Opera instead of Internet Explorer?\
I use the latest stock rom from HTC website.
Thanks!
The problem is I tried to save opera:config as a favourite.
When I go to the favourite it keeps adding http:// in front of the shortcut stopping the link from working. Even if I edit the shortcut it still adds http:// to the front after saving.
Does anyone know how to get this sorted?
Running default opera 9.7 Build 35627 shipped with 1.66 ROM.
You can't. It is opera itself thinking you have been lazy and not bothered putting http:// at teh start of teh address. If you did manage to tweak opera not to do that, it would never do it for any address and you would have to manually add http:// every time you entered an address.
Well that wouldn't bother me as I always go to the site then click add favourite.
Also a mate has the HD2 and the diamond and his diamond let's him save opera:config as a favourite.
If someone could tell me how to stop the http:// appearing that would be great.
The problem is that Opera 9.7 on the HD2 is using the HTC Sense Bookmark service by default, and it seems to add http:// every time you save. Whereas on your friend's Diamond it would be using the in built Opera 9.7 Bookmark service which doesn't add on the http://.
You can switch it back to use the in built Opera 9.7 bookmark service by doing the following:
Download a Registry editor like Total Commander or Resco Explorer. Then go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Info\UseOperaBookmark and change the value from "0" to "1".
This then enables the Opera 9.7 bookmark service and you can add opera:config as a favourite without it adding http:// to it.
the above answer will work, and has the added benefit of allowing you to use folders that aren't opened when you browse favorites like they are in the sense favorites....but don't forget that active sync will no longer sync operas bookmarks because they are saved to a different location. just best it in mind if you hard reset.
Is there any way i can import all my pc bookmarks from firefox into opera?

Well...I did it the LOOONGGGG way.
1.) Install OPERA 10 on your desktop (yes, the desktop version).
2.) Import your bookmarks from FIREFOX to OPERA.
3.) Sign up to OPERA LINK on your desktop OPERA 10.
4.) Once you've installed Opera Mobile 10 on your phone, enable OPERA LINK in Settings.
5.) You will be prompted to sign in.
6.) Sign in and the bookmarks which you've transferred from Firefox to OPERA 10 DESKTOP should be synchronised onto your Opera Mobile 10 Bookmarks.
Hope it helps.
I dont know about bookmarks but Opera 10 is rapid. Makes me want to surf the web more on my hd2 now than ever.
