Simple way to make opera bookmark appear in internet tab

Hi everyone ,
i found a easy way to make opera bookmarks appear in touchflo 3d internet tab.
-copy \application data\opera9 into \windows\
-open opera and type about:config in the adress bar
-in the quick find type : opera directory
-change the path to \Windows\Opera9\
-click save
-click ok when the pop up appears.
-close opera
enjoy your bookmarks in the internet tab.

forgot to say that it must work with every build of opera and that bookmarks will be updated automatically

Great find, its working for me on TF3DHD Beta 2 with the stock X1 opera. Now i dont need to install the horrible, buggy Touch HD opera build.

this part is mandatory if you want the bookmarks to update in touchflo 3D

Yeah, I'm using itje's wwe 3.01 touch-it rom. dunno why I had to reset then, I tried saving the new directory path twice and nothing showed up, but it did after a reset so I don't know.
Either way its working fine, so no worries.

did the bookmarks refresh corectly intouchflo 3d on itje rom ?

The opera folder is over 18mb, so after pasting into windows I deleted the original folder and now opera won't load...doh!

just copy the windows/opera9 in application data and opera will launch again.

argh!!
This isn't quite working for me - nearly though.
I do the above and I get the FIRST bookmark folder appear "Games" and thats it. I then go into opera and delete all the folders and leave the three boomarks i've added in the list, bbc, the reg and youtube. I exit the bookmark editing in Opera and the three appear perfectly on the Internet tab.
I then go back into Opera and it recreates all these crap default folders i don't want and in the process screwing back up my internet tab.
Any ideas?

More clues.
I have figured out that when I tried to add a new bookmark of my own, when I click on the star in opera it re-creates automaticaly all the old folders. I then have to delete them again and the tab is back to normal - talk about pain in the a*&e.

which rom are you using ? wich version of opera do you have.
Did you change the config path in opera configuration page ?
seems that opera is still using the original file and not the copyed one

Hi Ty
its on my Omnia so not sure how helpfull the Rom version would be.
Opera version is 9.5, build 15529 and yes, I changed the config line.

i suppose you are using touchflo2D on a custom dxkj2 or similar ? which version of touchflo 2d are you using ?

HELP: Opera button disappeared

basically, i have been playing around with my opera to try and update it so i can view flash based content on websites within the browser.
ive managed to get this to work so now i can see youtube on the actual website! and also videos/sound files on the bbc website and other flash based websites.
i upgraded to opera 2808 and installed flashplayer7 for ppc from adobe and made a plugin file with a flash plugin in that too.
now my opera does work but i need to go into the opera file in explorer and click on the operaL file. it wont work if i go to the internet tab or to the programs list and choose it from there. the logo has dissappeared. i have the original orange ROM and havent had a windows movile before so have no idea how to change anything like the logos or to reset the programs buttons. if anyone can help i will happily buy you a beer!

Email Problem

Hi.
I have a problem with my Email application: when I click different links in my emails it won't access them, for example if I have an Ebay link to an auction on my email, if I click on it, it won't open a new page in my web browser, it just marks the link in a sort of a square and won't do anything. Maybe it is because I removed the default Opera 9.7 and installed Opera 10 Beta.
Now, in the Internet tab, when I click on Opera, I get this error: The file OperaL cannot be opened.... , and I get this error because I have uninstalled Opera 9.7 . I selected Internet Explorer as my default web browser and the links in my emails still don't work.
I admit I haven't tried to access the links when I had Opera 9.7 installed. I'm not sure witch ROM version I have because it wasn't me who flashed it, but I know it is WM 6.5. When I open Device Info it says that my OS version is 5.2.28008 ( 28008.5.3.0), Manila version 2.1.19202517.0 and ROM version 02.Dec.2009 WWE.
The friend I bought it from said that this is the ROM version http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524032 . Also, I would really appreciate it if you could help me removing the Opera shortcut from the Internet tab, or make it point to Opera 10 Beta, and not the uninstalled Opera 9.7.
Thank you in advance!!!

Hehe. I got it. I restored the old Opera 9.7 ( I found the .cab in the windows folder) and now my links work and I don't get that error any more.

Can Opera10 be set as the default TF3D Tab Browser?

Hello All,
I've tried searching numerous places and have not been able to find a definitive answer as to if the newest version of Opera10 can be set at the TF3D tab default browser. I found a thread that suggested copying the opera10 files to the WINDOWS folder and renaming an oper file in the manilla folder, but that didn't work for me... or I didn't follow the instructions correctly.
I guess I should start by asking, can it be done? And if so, is there anyone out there that could possibley explain how to do it, or better yet .cab it up, so that a person such as myself doesn't mess anything up.
Thank you in advance for any responses or help with this. This forum/community is absolutely great!
Thanks,
DeMo

yes some version out that have been adapted to make it default or there is a reg hack to make it so ill try to find it

right i think this is it but to be honset not 100% so if some one can confirm
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\: DEFBROWSER
"0"=Opera Browser
"1"="\Program Files\Opera Mobile 10\Opera10-armv4i.exe"
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\http\Shell\Open\Command\Default
"\Program Files\Opera Mobile 10\Opera10-armv4i.exe" %1
edit this was to change it from IE in a rom i was using not sure if its the same if it has opera9 as the default already

If you don´t find your answer post there as all Opera experts visit that thread.

Thanks guys! I appreciate the responses. I'll go check the Opera thread mentioned above and try posting there.
I am trying to get Opera 10 to launch from the TF3D Internet tab when you push "Launch Browser", instead of it launching Opera 9.x.
I've found information about editing an xml file, but that seems to be a solution for the T-Mobile TP2. I have a Sprint TP2 w/stock rom (I failed to mention that earlier).
Anyhow, thanks again. I will continue my search.

I just downloaded Opera 10 Beta from Opera's website last night and installed it on my Tilt2, stock AT&T ROM. During the installation, it asked me if I wanted to make it the default browser. I clicked yes. Now it is used when I click the TF3D browser button.

The cab is here.

Yes, but if you cook it in, it doesn't set as default browser, unless you install the reg tweak...

Okay. I'm still a noob at most of this, cooking ROMs is way over my head.

I found that if you go into the settings in whichever browser you are in (I've done it with Skyfire as well) you can select it to be your default browser and it will open with the TF3D link. Hope this helps!

Opera_Mobile_10_WM_beta_3_2.cab Does not have a setting/option to set is as tha default.. i aswell im dying to get this working as i hate opera 9.7
and not that i want skyfire but i just tryed setting it as default browser and still opera 9.7 open when i click tha globe or the browser softkey on tha internet tab...
Me & tha wife would really like an easy solution for this aswell
Thanks
Well opera 10 gave me tha option to set it as tha default browser wen newly installed but it did not open via internet tab..
What i did was delete all tha opera crap from my windows folder, then took contents of tha out of tha "Opera Mobile 10" folder i had installed on internal storage/memory card Renamed tha .exe file to OperaL.exe and pasted it in my windows folder, it works fine.. but uses like 10MB more memory then the default opera...
Now if i could get a copy of the internet explorer exe that i could rename and paste, in place of opera 10 that may be better as opera10 takes alot of space (on tha diamond i can't aford it) and i cannt copy tha IE exe - my device says i cannot edit ROM files ?

Opera Mini as standard browser

hi,
i'm using os version: 5.2 and manila: 2.5 (from dutty's 1.59).
I want to set opera mini as browser for all stuff especially for the internet tab on the htc gui.
Is that possible?
Thx!

I'm not sure if this works with 'mini', but what i used to do with other versions of opera (e.g. 10 beta, 9.7) was:
- install the cab to phone memory
- look in the \windows foler to see what the current opera browser is called (usually Opera9.exe or OperaL.exe). backup this file (e.g. rename it to Opera_old.exe)
- rename the [.exe] in [\program files\Opera Mini 5] to Opera9.exe or OperaL.exe
- copy everything from the install directory of opera mini (\program files\Opera Mini 5) to [\windows]
- soft reset!
I used this method sucessfull to change the defualt broswer in Sense from opera 9.5 to 9.7 and 10, but I'm not sure if it works for mini.
this method also changes the defualt browser.
- if it doesnt work you should be able to delete your new Opera9/OperaL.exe, and rename the backed-up file, and still have the current version of opera working, but as i havent tested, i cant guarentee it!
- if you are really worried, backup your whole [/windows] folder to mem card first, otherwise you might have to HR.
I can't be bothered to do that every time i flash a new ROM at the moment, so all i do is hide the internet tab in Sense, and use one of the homescreen shortcuts in sense 2.5 to point to opera mini.
Hope this helps
