I have a CDMA Diamond Stock 1.22.557.1 ROM Running Opera 9.5 build 2392.
I dont have time (believe me I've tried) to read every post in every thread of each different version to figure out which ones do what. My question is which stable version is the most up to date that will work on my diamond and replace the current Opera thats installed? I don't want to have 2 separate operas taking up all my device storage, and I cant tell which build is the most recent because I have build 2392 and it looks like theres a newer verion thats 15613 or something. Also most of the threads dont even describe whats different about the build. Any help would be appreciated.
Unfortunately there's no single answer to your question.
(Not with the information you've given us.)
I suggest you start reading some Opera threads in the Development & Hacking forum (under General). If you want to make a quick selection on Opera threads, use the search!!!

I've tried, and I tried asking this question in the "Main Opera Thread" but no one seems to want to answer questions there. I promise I've searched and I know every build there is I just dont know which one to chose.

This is one of the big problems from many users in the forum, they look for information and some freaks complain all along, sending you to the search function. I've tried self many times to look for some info and the search function didn't help me at all, but those who are permanently online (Qt:04:56 PM --> At:05:04 PM*) just can delivery a poorly answer like that
- Well, if you want a faster Opera, install the build 15746 from Samsung Omnia, it ist very fast, support flash and WMP plugins very well, but it does not support Diamond's scroll wheel for zooming and the view does not rotate via Diamonds sensor too. I had it for many weeks on my Device.
Opera v9.5 Build 15746 VGA Samsung Omnia
- Or just use the latest available version from Diamond Pro 2, this one, support flash and wmp plugins too, works stable and supports the scroll wheel, but the view rotation does not work here too
Opera v9.5 Build 15613 VGA Diamond PRO 2
Ahh... hands off from the Opera 9.5 Beta 2 available by Opera.com
Install the opera CAB.file on your main memory to prevent a dual installlation.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! That's all I needed to know. I dont know why so many people here think that google will take you to every single answer you're looking for. Sometimes its just not there. Again thank you for your help!
EDIT: I understand the Omnia version does not support the scroll zoom but does it still support the double tap zoom? Also is the Omnia version stable otherwise? I like faster and the scroll wheel isnt that big of a deal so as long as I can zoom some way I'll go with that one.
You're welcome

Any noticable improvements to warrant loading the newer diamond 2 build over the existing one? I cannot find any comparisons or feature rundown to determine if it worth the effort.
Anybody have some personal feedback?
Ceger
thanks for great answer, i downloaded the Opera v9.5 Build 15613 VGA Diamond PRO 2.. the good thing is the view rotation works on my diamond.
Hey guys, I Dl and installed the 15746 vers from omnia and opera keeps starting by itself over and over again. I cant get it to stay closed.
I just upgraded to the Diamond PRO 2 version on my Diamond and was able to run it once. Now every other time it just doesn't do anything. :S
EDIT: Ok, looks like it was a temporary bug, after a reboot it starts up normally after each close. Another question, maybe noobish... where is this opera.ini everyone keeps talking about? I can't find it.

Hi all,
i tried to install the Opera rip from the Touch HD which was posted here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2842296&postcount=1523
first thing to say is it is amazing fast compared to our build in the X1 and it is wqorking really good, but there is one really big problem which makes it useless
If you wanna key in an url with the Hardware keyboard, then after starting after some seconds the fild disapears , with the software keyboard this problem doesnt happen.
I really hope that sony comes soon with an update, or an developer can fix it on this build haha

yes if you longer dont write something but with the HTC build you can write and it will go away anyway so this is an different problem
the X1 version of opera is said to be optimized for the X1 and running really fast (@pocketnow.com Review Youtube Video)
so why install the Touch HD version ?
the TouchHD build is much faster then the built in version, also it has an better xperience in my eyes when it comes to zooming and other things
its still version 9.5, just another build...cant make much difference
did you try it with the same websites, same connection speed etc ?
believe me it is a lot faster on same webpages with same connection (WLAN)
the page rendering is faster, how it displays the page is better, specially on zooming, loadtime is better.
Believe it, i tested it, but have to hardreset to get it away again and to get the originla opera for x1 again.
regards cHarOn
alright, but with that bug you mentioned its not really worth changing
yes agree , its not worth, thats why i posted it , to warn the users, or maybe to see some developers to have an solution for that , maybe i should try an Touch Pro build also, but that is only for VGA and i dont know what happens then
I'm using 2723 and it's much faster than the default one. It loads pages faster, plus it scrolls much much faster, the flick scroll can keep up with your flicks.
The onlt thing is it can't use the default startpage and uses it's own.
I've been trying loads of builds, but I think this is the latest from the Opera site.
works there also the hardware keyboard as it should, i mean if you key in an long webadress will it stay viewable?
ok tested the last beta and you are right, it runs also really fast, same as the Touch HD Build and the good thing with the beta is , it doesnt overwrite the SE Build, it makes an extra installation called Opera Beta, so you can easy remove it again if you dont like it, or let it installed and you can use both
where to you get that build ? Just the latest version from the opera website ?
What about Skyfire ? I heard that is the best browser for WinMo

What build is the buildin one (since I don't have my X1 "yet")? I remember there are 2 major version for Opera. The build 2xxx version has this keyboard timeout issue while the 19xx version will not on my Att Tilt
2141 is the build which is installed

But it is actually the same problem,it dissapears while i write.
trying out the new beta (9.51) and there the google-field works ok,it,s also faster and more polished in zoom and so on higly recommended.
hmm thats strange, that doesnt happen on mine, it only happens if i stop writing and wait some seconds, but on the HTC build it happens after writing 3 letters and i am fast
so i got 951b2.cab from the website, is that the build you refer to ?
will get my X1 today hopefully

Well then I'd hate to say this but the QVGA cab does not work on my HTC Touch running stock Sprint 6.1 ROM. Says "Unable to install Opera Mobile 9.5. The device does not have a valid ROM version.". I checked the cab and it's not limiting to specific platforms and I've had this error before on another Opera cab and removing the Setup DLL from the cab fixed it. I'll try that and let you know. Thanks.
same problem on my Sprint HTC Touch for the QVGA, running NFSFAN's rom and can't install.
Removing the Setup DLL from the cab fixes it.
ooppppssss hold on i will fix that
ok it is fixed and reuploaded now
installs now, thanks. seems pretty speedy!
Hi, some question:
We can use flash in this build??
Do you gonna release Sd version for the app (for qvga version)?
Thanks

Does this also include all the other Raphael devices like the unbranded Touch Pro or an Xda Pro or is this really a Fuze-only build to be used on AT&T's network?
anybody know the changes?
sorry that i'm asking, but i was looking for a changelog everywhere, no luck.

the one labeled - fuze vga - is set up for at&t since i have a fuze
the one labeled - vga - is for any vga device
the one labeled - qvga - is any qvga device.
Ok, thats what I figured, it might be preconfigured (guess proxy settings and stuff) specificly for the Fuze and not any Raphael. Thanks for the answer, will try the build. I'm on 15202 now and it works really well on a Touch Pro, massively better than the 15529 or so, it's got zoom and renders really quickly.
Is there any consensus on whether 15202 is the most reliable/effective Opera build thus far?
I will tell you which one works better for me, this one or the 15202 once I managed to get this on my mobile. I'm currently fighting with Netbook-Touch Pro-connectivity related problems and I'm too lazy to get out of bed to try the whole thing upstairs with my Notebook...
This is the best bulid of Opera 9.5 i have used and the fastest, works fine on Htc Blackstone

Cant agree, lucian777. For me 15202 is better, mainly because
Nicer loading screen
Adaptive Zoom settings are right after install, no manual tinkering
15202 got the bottom left zoom slider
cant make out any speed differences so far
So no advantages but no real drawbacks either, so I stay with 15202 on my Touch Pro.
Edit: Big drawback, this 15445 isnt uninstallable!
Edit 2: And no other Opera will install ontop of it, tells me installation failed... gotta love those hardresets... *grmpf*
Hi All,
Opera build 2532 that comes with the new ROM has a bug with Outlook Web Access pages....unfortunately that means I can't use it. There seem to be a lot of other (non X1 specific) builds around. Does anyone know if any of them will work well on the X1 and support the touch pad?
TIA
For me, in v.2532, AEKmap (for greek layout writing with hard keyboard) is not working.
I've already tried 2520, 2808, 15233, beta2, 86.5, none of them is working with optical button.
I was thinking about OMNIA version (which has optical as well)... but which is it?

Thanks for the link. I already found build 15233 in a thread SOMEWHERE in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260
Might have been the Omnia QVGA thread where someone posted a VGA cab. Yes, that build works exceptionally well. Has the new invisible zoom bar. The touch pad doesn't work ....... but what the hell, who needs it when you can move th page with your finger.
There is a later build 15529 but zooming really does NOT work very well on my Xperia and it seems otherwise the same.
Cheers
I would like to have touch pad working...
I think that it is very usefull when you are browsing with auto zoom in "fullscreen".
havnt seen this one yet... but for u admins are u guys going to make an update to get the new tf3d like on the new touch pro 2 ?
didnt see this yet so am sorry if there is one out...
anyone there to make a new manila 3 cab???
i was looking for that also...i know that touch pro users can find a manila cab, but i could not find anyone making cab with manila 3 for touch hd... .
not everyone want or can install new rom to be able to use new manila....is there anyone who could prepare new manila 3 cab????
you'll find the new manila is useless without an updated rom, mate
you do not need an updated ROM for the porting of the Touch Pro. It runs on 19xxx version of Windows in fact. Some additional add-ons (like enhanced notifications and menus) don't work but those are not a part of TF3D itself.
cool thanks for the heads up mate

Cab for the new calendar?
Hi,
I have got a Touch HD and I am happy with it. The only thing that bothers me, is the Windows mobile calendar. I saw that on the new TFD 2.5 the calendar has improved significantly. Great optic and no WM even when adding an appointment! That is what I was waiting for!! I really want this calendar!! I never modified anything on my device as I am scared to screw up my Touch HD! Is there a possibility to get a cab with the new calendar on the "old" Touch HD TFD? My version should be the 1.3.353...
Please help me... Sorry if it is a impossible thing to ask...
Thanx!
Hi,
Same for me... meaning I'm a noob in this topic and I would like to understand a bit about TF3D because I have seen in several post that there are other versions (2.5....)
My HD has 1.3.35601.1_1630.38 version of TF3D.
Is there any interest for me to upgrade? I have not found a clear explanation of what the new versions are offering...

Your currently using manila 1.3. The latest manila versions have a better/smoother, more finger friendly interface with additional options & displays (i.e. weather displayed on home tab below clock to name one). Also manila 2.0+ has landscape enabled so you can view all tabs in landscape mode as well as portrait
Thanks,
So is there any way to easily update to 2.0? I'm not used to make modifications so I'm affraid to put the mess in my HD ...

I haven't seen a way yet on the HD to update to another version of manila without having to flash a new rom. Its possible on other devices to port to another manila, but as I said, I haven't seen this avilable yet on the HD
Currently, I'm running Itje's Touch-IT v7 ROM. The built-in Opera doesn't support the HW keyboard, but it does support push internet.
My problem is that it doesn't do what I want it to! Who can help me find an opera that does what I want it to? I'd like to see at least a version number and link when you suggest something.
What I'm looking for:
1) Most important of all: HW Keyboard support.
2) Would love to see the vertical slider on the right side of the screen to control zooming.
3) Support for the TF3D Internet tab bookmarks.
4) The latest version supporting above features (less bugs!).
5) No need for push internet. (what is push internet anyway!?)
Above list is in order of importance. If anyone can point me to one with the first two features, I'd be thrilled already. ^_^
If many people will post links, I'll be making this post a comprehensive list of opera versions and features for the X1.
Opera 16194 - X1 - Link
Speed: Scrolling is very smooth, overall pretty responsive.
Zooming: No on-screen zoom, but volume button zoom works fine.
Input: HW keyboard works fine, as well as SIP.
TF3D Compatibility: Bookmarks will be visible when the opera6.adr file is put in windows\Opera9. You'll have to manually select them as push pages to show up in TF3D.
Thanks in advance!

Alrighty, the newest X1 Opera is pretty good. Does anyone know of one with the on-screen zoom slider? It used to be in Itje's Touch-IT 4.5 rom iirc.
i saw that one in default HTC opera... but hw keyboard wasnt working on those

has there been any update on this ?
is there a current version that supports all of the features metioned on the first page ?
i'm currently using build 2532 and i can't use a few sites and it crashes randomly whereas the version that came with the stock rom was just fine. :-(
I tried to install build 16194 posted in the link, but it failed and said the device was not "authorized". Does anyone know what could be the problem?
maybe u need sdk certs dunno just guess
Thanks. I resolved the problem. Did a hard reset and restored using Sprite backup, then installed Build 16194. Now the hardware keyboard works fine.
