Hi,
Hope someone can help me with this. I have installed opera 9.7 beta onto my HD but cannot work out how to set it up so that when I press the internet tab it uses 9.7 and not 9.5. Does anyone have a way of doing this?
i have the same query. i tried search but found nothing.
slightly off topic.
i`m using "Three" 3G provider in Hong Kong and it takes ages to surf the net. i put the sim in my old N95 and the browsing is much faster. so it must be my HD. i tried changing the cache settings etc as suggested when i searched the issue but its still a crap net surfing experience.
any suggestions anyone?

Hi again,
Thanks for that however, the first version demonstrated using total commander does not work as I can't save the file due to write protection, I have tried to remove it using the comment idea by Lace in the fuze mobility site but it still won't save.
The second version works OK but the shortcuts still revert back to Opera 9.5. If I don't use the shortcuts then it uses 9.7.
Using Total Commander, I changed the assossiation of InternetPortal-en-GB.xml to Opera9-ml.exe from Opera9.exe and the icon file as well, these are both in the program directory. This appears to work but I don't know which version of Opera it is actually using, is there a way of checking this?

Sorry - I have no idea how to correct that...
i had to do a hard reset.
then i added links to the opera6 adr file which put the links in the TF 3d, but it still doesnt work very well.
i`ll continue to post if i`m successfyl.
ok, i got it to work. sort of.
firstly i added <BrowserExe>\Windows\OperaL.exe</BrowserExe>
to the “InternetPortal-en-US.xml”.
then i moved the OperaL and opera9-ml files to windows. when i renamed the opera9-ml to opera9 as suggested it didnt work at all, it just says cant find the file. so i left it as is.
if i click on a bookmark the opera mobile small splash screen starts and then it hangs. if i press the "x" and close it, the browser opens and goes to the link. so i suppose it works, but its a bit annoying i have to press the x everytime.
if anyone has a solution let me know. thanks
Having upgraded to Opera 9.7 following the instructions found here I got that to work really easy, BUT does anyone know how to change (or remove) the links found below the Opera button in TF3D??

i uninstalled an opera upgrade and then opera doesnt work. i installed the latest beta from opera to get a clean install but i think the link to opera is lost as it wont start when i press the "launch browser" button.
how can i sort this out?
"Launch Browser" Opera does not start up
Hi Guys,
I have also the problem, that after installation to the new Opera and uninstalling the old one, the "Launch Browser" doesn´t find the link to Opera.
I checked the registry and I follow actually all advises from this forum, but no one was successfully.
I wrote one time ago, that the xml-file to this "Lauch Browser (link)" has to be changed, but what I said before, I can´t remember.
I think it can be developed to a big issue, because if we want to upgrade or totaly changing the Browser, the link to "Launch Browser" will not work anymore.
So please, if anyone knows how to change the link, let us know.
Thx

I'm afraid the only way i fixed this was to hard reset.

but to do an hardreset, is not an successfull solution. In Diamond Forum they discribe how to do with the xml-file, but they don´t say wich file it is. some they say it is a Manilafile some other people say it isn´t a manilafile.
Even other People said that any change they are doing is not functionally.
What I don´t understand is, we have so many seriously developers they can even change our HD to anything else what we ask for, of any Theme of any Slider of any Topbar, but it seems that there is no one, who can really help.
Soon or later, we all will get problem, because if Firefox or any other Browser will developed to higher and faster Browser, we will like to have it, but if we install it, than we can delete one from the 15 Sliderbutton "Browser"
Has anybody tried this on there Titan yet?
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/tag/6on6
I've used IE6 from no2chem's NueROM-M 201 and it rocks! You can find download here for that ROM. I've heard not-so-good things about using IE6 before I actually used it, and I have to say it probably is one of those that you either love or hate. I happen to love it. New download manager, better zoom support, JS, CSS, Flash, switch between Desktop and Mobile code view. I have to say - as a web developer and WinMo user for the better part of two years - do everything you can to get this application. It is awesome!
Jacob,
Glad to hear that you liked the new IE6, I can't wait to try it.
I am sure someone will be looking for it, so sere's a direct link to the standalone IE6 .cab: HERE.
Thanks in advance,
Matt!
Does the cab, IE6, replace IE Mobile? How is performance on the titan, with its limited memory, is IE6 actually usable or is it like Opera 9 (Out of memory errors)?
I'm on the NueROM as well and I found it to be very slow - especially when used to browse forums.

thanks, can you tell us where is cab from?
Unable to find app
I installed the cab, it asked to restart my phone, I did so and now I am unable to find any changes. I've repeated this process twice. The first time I installed to main memory with no joy. The second I installed to the memory card and was unable to locate any changes at all in any folders. I tried launching pIE to see if it was just a overall replacment also to no avail. I could use some help if I've don'e something incorrect.
Yeah I see no changes. Is this really the right cab? Hopfully if I uninstall it, it won't delete my mobile IE
Since I backed up everything, Im very daring.
I've tested this uninstall for you and it doesn't remove pIE
Im going to take apart the cab and see whats in it.
**edit**
I don't know what Im looking for to be honest. It went quicker to view it than I thought.
Thanks I appreciate it. I would like to know where the thread of that attachment came from.
Hmm. The more I use the IE Mobile and read about it, the more it seems to be missing. I have the browser set to mobile view, yet it stays in full desktop style. Had this problem in NueROM and now in GaMedic's ROM. Was under the impression it doesn't work - now I wonder if it just isn't working on my Mogul for some reason.
EDIT - Oops. I need to clarify - the mobile/desktop toggle works in that it disguises my mobile when I goto sites that auto-detect. I really miss the One-Column style browsing. Any way to bring that back?
Its really slow and the web pages dont fit the screen so I quickly removed it
hey guys, don not know, whether the problem may cause on other pages... but there is an issue with the website studivz.net.
I wrote more than three times to the sony ericsson-support...but they answered me to make a hard-reset and use opera mobile instead of internet explorer.
I thought they're just kidding me...because I wrote them that there are few people having the same problem USING OPERA on studivz.net...
ohere you may see the problem with a black col that becomes bigger and bigger each time I press any link on the page...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7cKCJ25a6zE
perhaps anybodyy of you know how to work around...
got the same problem on meinvz and other pages aswell.
just keep in mind ... the opera version u are using is still BETA. it has plenty of bugs (hardcoded text block formatting f.e.)
well ... we'll see what future versions and browser bring here.
I'm trying to contact opera...but there seems to be no support-mailaddress available?!
I sent the link to the German Sony Ericsson-support as well...hope they'll answer seriously...
and I noticet the support-team of studiVZ.

Does it need flash or anything? I can't see anything using the dev tools
Have you tried netfront browser?
the 3.5 "concept version" is one of my favourites, not to everyones taste but might be worth a try.
http://www.access-company.com/products/mobile_solutions/netfrontmobile/browser/35_wm_tp.html
Obviously leaving a message on the opera forums would be a good thing as well.
I found a support-mail-contactmailer on the webpage of opera and informed them about this issue. sent the link to this video as well.
perhaps I'll give the netFront a try...but I'd more like to use the opera...
the page doesn't use flash...but ajax. for opening message-windows (in the video you may see, it doesn't work with opera...)
well, I installed the new official rom and this issue has gone.
works find now. but ajax-messages won't open at all.
is there anything I can do?
and I hate that you have to zoom in before you are able to click a link/input-field in the new build of opera.
hope they make this "feature" checkable per box in the settings.
or anybody may find out, what to change in the registry.
another fine thing would be a tutorial that describes how to set opera opening tabs in the background instead of making new tabs active.
especially on ebay this is bugging me.
and at last I think it would be great to set the identity of opera as desktop-browser. I hate google-, gmx-, or especially ebay-mobile... if I could choose the identity of opera all would be fine
Can't find an answer to this using search so forgive me if i missed it.
Pretty much as the title states, i was intrigued with the prospect of skyfire so i gave it a go, doing so pushes internet explorer to the default browser (hateful program!!).
I just need to get opera as the default browser again.
Any help grateful.
in operas setting there is one which makes it set as default browser, (but i cant see it on mine??? ,might be cos i upgraded to the flash version on here????)
open opera, go to settings have a look around, i couldnt see it either....
although you can try this...
:extra:
go to opera and then go to this page opera:config
you will find alot of extra settings here to change things about
there must be a registry setting for which is default browser might be as simple as what open ".html" files
Use a registry edit
I have had to do this a couple of times now through playing with alternative broswers. I read elsewhere that if you type opera:config into the address bar in opera, you can bring up all the preferences. Apparently checking 'Browser First Time Launch' in the 'Install' section is supposed to reinstate Opera as the default browser, but it didn't work for me.
I have found the easiest way is simply to use a reg fix by using a registry editor (I have been using EveryWan which also allows you to remote control your Touch HD as well as many other useful tools: http://www.sparus-software.com/Device-Management/Products/EveryWAN-Remote-Support,43/THE-ULTIMATE-TOOL-FOR-HOTLINERS.html).
Edit the registry as follows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\: DEFBROWSER
"0"=Opera Browser
"1"="\Windows\OperaL.exe\"
After this everything should be hunkydory
Regards,
Guy
Will give this ago, maybe this should go wiki? if it's not already.
The possibiltys that skyfire/other new browsers may tempt to install but lose the default functionality of opera, which in my mind is superb on the HD.
Thanks Chaps
Hey. thanks for all the suggestions. I did change the registry values, according to the instructions above, I did tick the install option in Opera config, and still I get IE opening when I click on a link in RSS Feed. Anyone has another idea?
Thanks!

This is relevant to my interests. I really dislike IE opening my rss feeds as well.
I also have this problem.
It happened after installing and unistalling skyfire.
Every time I click in a link (for example in the email) it opens in the IE.

Since I wrote the post above I have discovered that using the internal Opera method is the best because not only does it reinstate Opera as the default for opening links from e-mails, but it also resets the default program for RSS reader which was driving me nuts.
I did mention this briefly previously, but simply load up Opera and then type opera:config in the address bar. This will bring up all the settings. Now find the 'Install' section and expand the section by tapping the word 'Install'. Now check the 'Browser First Time Launch' box and then tap 'Save'. It will come up with some nonsense about running a javascript command, but just select okay and then quit out the browser and re-start.
I found the above method reset Opera as my default for all apps, so hope it works.
Good luck,
G
Sure this works. Any way to reverse the setting ? i.e. not to make Opera the default browser anymore...

Gisbourne,
Could you help-out on how to set my Opera as default?. I tried your suggestion on Post # 3 & 11. But it did not did the trick. I tried also the following suggestion:
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila2D\InternetWidget\
"OperaEXEFile"=<Path to Opera>
"WebBrowserType"=dword:00000001
I can't input the characters "dword:00000001" on WebBrowserType, coz I got only three (3) choices either Binary, Decimal or Hexadecimal. Tried to put the characters, but my home screen (M2D) keeps on reseting when I go to the widgets.
Maybe you still have something under your sleeve to help me out . Thanks in advance.
Hkeyclassesroot/http/shell/command, edit the file in command with the the address of the .exe of yhe browser you want to use. This is for RSS feeds.

Value data="\Windows\OperaL.exe"%1
I replaced the data to "\Windows\Opera9.exe"
Well it did not reset to home screen but when i clicked the IE browser opens.
Search for JZSmartMort, its a cab file. This will give you the option to select your default browser.
I will help you more with links and such, the problem is that im browsing on my HD.
Restore the reg data you edited in the http/command folder.
I recently bought myself a touch 3G and when I go to the "Internet" tab of my touchflo and hit the globe (for accessing the internet), it doesn't do anything. Same goes for hitting the bookmarks tab and the browse tab.
I already did a soft reset, but that didn't change anything.
Afterwards I browsed around and found 2 files in my windows folder: opera_NLD.cab and opera_Skin.cab. I ran both files and now I have some bookmarks in the internet tab (facebook, news,...) however clicking one of them aswell as the globe still doesn't do anything.
Same result after doing a soft reset.
I now did a hard reset to see if that changed anything, but it still doesn't work.
Any ideas on what to do?
I had a similar problem, but it was resolved after a hard reset. You're the second case I've read that a hard reset doesn't solve the problem, and it's making me hesitant to attempt any other changes to the Internet tab. I have previously edited the registry settings of the InternetWidget before the tab failed to work.
Opera
Problem is the opera in kitchen.
Delete the opera out of the jade kitchen en put the opera
from iolite back.
Don't use the Iolite Opera CAB as there is a problem with it and it will waste 6.5MB of your memory.
You've found the language and skin cabs but can you find a file called WM6_PPC_HTC_Opera9_WWE.CAB in your windows folder?
After installing the WM6_PPC_HTC_Opera9_WWE.CAB file everything seem to be working fine. Thanks for the help!
Little note, I also contacted HTC support the same time I posted my question here. So far I haven't had an answer solving my issue.
They suggested to download and install opera9.5 mobile, but that didn't change anything offcourse. Why don't they know the file is on the device itself?
I can't say I'm satisfied with the support I recieved...

Can you run Opera from the program files instead from the Internet tab ?
or run direct from \windows\opera9.exe ?
