To have more tabs, enter Opera:config into the address, then go to the User Pref section, look for the item called "Maximum Allowed Tabs" and change it to what you want.
Cheers.

Sorry, I'm not aware of how to do it. I like Opera's way much more though.
Hallo,
since i started the Internet Explorer, Opera isn't longer standard browser, I have tried to change the reg-key:
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\EFBROWSER]
"0"=Opera Browser
"1"=\\Windows\OperaL.exe\
"2"=dword:00000001
"3"=dword:00000000
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But it doesn't work. Does anybody know how to change it.
i'm sure if you seach enough you will find the answer, it has been asked many times.
i'm sure a search of "change default browser" will find something...
-edit- did the seach for you. Thread here
i have googled for it but the only thing i found is to change the registry.
When i lounch the browser from TF3D, Opera starts. That's OK. But when i "klick" on a link in RSS Hub Pocket IE starts.
Sorry for my bad english.
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.
Hi, all:
I found that G1's browser disable the "file uploads" function. So, If posting an email, you can't attach any files with it. It seems that no setting items related with this issue. Is that the browser development team disable it for security reason?
Seriously, I had a p.o.s. Sidekick, and even that allowed uploads to any site. I believe Opera Mini allows for uploads, but that browser sucks.
hi, CBowley:
I don't understand what you says "I had a p.o.s.", Do you mean you have another app to upload files except Opera Mini?

I apologize, in America "p.o.s." means "piece of ****", describing the "Sidekick", aka "Danger hiptop", I believe Opera mini is the only browser that allows for uploads.

classic... and i love the speed of opera, but its not worth the hassel
workaround
Funny I came here today for the same reason as op did. I know this theard is a little old, but I do know of a workaround, well sort of, at least for the example that op used. This may work other ways, but I use linda file manger.
Go to the file u want to send though linda. Long press it and options come up. Select "send to", then pick gmail (not email). It will then bring up an email with file attched to it. Just send email like normal now. This works for Any file type. I've tested size up tp 7 mb so far...
Hi all,
quick question please: when i tap on the globe in my internet tab, i get web&walk opera launching (i have a t-mobile UK HD2). is there any way to change that so that i get skyfire instead? i've set skyfire to be my default browser but didnt work.
thanks
Go into Skyfire, then settings, then set as default browser, similar to desktop PC's really, then the globe will launch that.

Have you tried setting Opera as not your default browser?
Settings>Advanced>Set Opera as default browser

yeah, it's unchecked as soon as you set Skyfire as your default browser.. i wonder whether this has got anything to do with that stupid web&walk software that comes with T-mobile phones...
Hmmm, maybe other Tmobile users can confirm, the globe in the web page works to whatever broswer I set with my o2 branded hd2.

that makes sense.. with my t-mobile phone, everytime i want to use the browser, i get this popup 'do you want to go online?' and then the web&walk logo comes on, followed by opera no matter which browser you've set as default..
has anyone found a solution with this?

You're good..! it did work thanks a lot..
if anyone's got similar problems, just follow the link above, change your registry setting and you no longer get the web'n'walk browser launching, but rather whichever browser you've set as default..
right..! should go and do some work now...
