opera mini

Hello
i was wondering if i could run the opera mini on my xda exec?
why is opera mini termed as opera's solution for java?, what does the java language have to do with a browser?

hi, yes u can run opera mini on your device..but i would rather recomand opera 8.6 for pocket pc which is great ..i mean for me. opera mini is a java application thats why is a java solution
PM me and i will give you a link where u can get it

thanks for the reply
is opera8.6 for pocket pc also a java application, all browsers are not java applications, correct/
i guess opera would need to have the jre installed on the phone?

Just grab a copy of Opera Mobile (WM5 PPC) from here.
This will install the trial (30 day) version.
Some evil crackers/pirates (arr!) have edited the .DLL file to remove the 30 day limitation, but at least they had the decency to post it to GSM Hosting rather than this site.
I hope this helps.

I actually didn't care for the Opera browser... it was very slow compared to Opera Mini. Mini is extremely fast and does everything pretty well.

thanks for the replies
both opera and opera mini need to be bought?

no, Opera Mini is free.
Opera browser for the PPC is not free.

is this a case of the browser with the bells and whistles is paid whereas browser-lite is free?

Opera Mini 4 + Talkonaut at once?

Does anyone have a solution for running Talkonaut and Opera Mini 4 at the same time? They're both java apps. Jbed doesn't support running multiple MIDlets so I tried TOA and both will start up but then they both crash while Talkonaut loads. Jbed runs a little faster anyway.
Also, does anyone know how to minimize Opera when running in Jbed? It runs fullscreen and I can't get access to the close button which allows me to minimize apps. In TOA it runs windowed so I can minimize it. Even if I could minimize Opera then I could run Talkonaut in TOA and Opera in Jbed.
The reason I'm using Talkonaut is because the MSN app that comes with WM6 seems to say all my contacts are offline when they aren't and it's the only client I've found that supports HTTP binding for GTalk (needed when using wifi at school since there's no cell signal).
Thanks for any help you can provide. Sorry if this is in the wrong section or has basic questions in it. I'm a noob to these phones.
And yes, I did Google, search the forums, and read the MIDlets Guide I saw on here somewhere...

xv6800 Compatible with Opera Mini.

I would like to know if opera mini is compatible with my verizon xv6800. According to the opera mini web site it is not. If it is compatible, do I need to install something else for it to work?

Yes, its compatable. Download the high memory version of Opera Mini 4 and you should be good to go. Good luck.

Verizon doesn't ship Java with the XV6800, so Opera Mini won't run natively. You have to either install a Java client (search the links here for a recommendation) or install a new ROM that includes a Java client (the DCD kitchen includes Java as an option). Once you install Java and Opera Mini, you'll actually run Opera Mini from within Java. Opera won't appear in your programs list.

To answer the question, yes opera mini is compatible after installing a java manager. I use mini 4 and 4.1 on my 6800. Works 1000 times better than the pocket ie for 99% of browsing.

I can confirm as well. I used emerstec jbed and opera mini 4.1 beta and I love it. Pages load in a few seconds, even ones with a lot of graphics (xda-forums main page with all the phone pics). I also have opera 9 mobile beta and rarely use it anymore since opera mini is several times faster at loading pages. I haven't had many rendering issues when loading pages either. There is a good thread in the development and hacking sub forum with all the files you need.

Anyone figured out how to load the new Opera Mini 4.1 with the touch of the IE button? Or how to get it to work as the default browser?

Opera Mobile Beta 9.5

I have following Problem:
after i installed Opera Mobile Beta 9.5 amny programs dont use there internal browser to show content opera get started and shows it

When installing Opera it says that you cant use your IE anymore.

I´m using both programs at the same time, no problem.
But i don´t know why this thread is in THIS part of the forum.

facebook problem opera 9.7 - THIS IS NOT A REPOST!

Hello folks.. this is not another FB related thread...
i can access the full facebook website with my opera 9.7, the thing is that the site doesn't display properly! i am unable to see the wall! i have javascript active, plugins enabled and fixoperaflash 1.5.5.20 working properly with ieactivex.dll registred, but with no success.
I am able to view it properly on Internet explorer though... so it's opera related... don't know whats wrong! youtube works perfectly for instance, and the thing is that it worked before but i was installing some opera builds, and trying to add flash and then it got broken, and i was never able to view it again, no matter what i do.
tried:
-deleting user profile
-reinstalling opera
-installing other version
-view all possible configs
nothing.. suggestions appreciated!

i can see that i am doomed... DAMN!

hi. try to use another app like facebook or dolphin browzer HD

I know this may sound crazy but disable java script in opera 9.7.
I too have found various websites not working with the java in opera 9.7 so its now disabled and much mch better.
Websites now load superfast on hd2 without advertising and commercial crap...java is ****..
