Opera 10 browser and Flashplayer version query... - HD2 General

Hi guys!
Have any of you updated your browser yet to Opera 10??
I have and it's great!!!
I got so fed up of Skyfire being soooooo slow. It also seemed that Skyfire always wanted a WIFI or 3G connection. If it didn't get it.....it just didn't want to know.
Opera 10 is the business. Looks really fresh and new and is also really fast.
I've installed Macromedia FlashPlayer 7 and enabled Opera 10 to use it but I wondered if anyone out there has installed a higher version of FlashPlayer on their Windows HD2 with success???
It works okay with FP7 and does most things but it just won't go that little extra mile and play video content.
Does anyone know if a higher version will play a website's video contents??
I see that the FlashPlayer is up to 10.1 I think but I'm not sure if it's compatible with the Windows HD2????
Any thoughts??
Gaz.

Just installed it opera 10 it works like a charm. i still have to install flashplayer 10 it is somewhere on thit forum

Isn't it only for android? Or is there a new breakthrough??

Just do a search on this forum for /TX Opera Mobile 10 With Flash/ go to Settings>Abvance and enable the PlugIn.When you see a Flash in the browser,touch it,will Zoom in ,touch the flash again while Zoomed in will start to play Youtube video,Tap twice wil embad,touch again just once will open in/m.youtube.com.
Comprande!!.
Will play only the YouTube videoes,nothng else,
I do it all the time so dont tell me it doesnt work!!.

Opera Mobile 8.65 full question

Has anyone been using the full version.
I've been using it for a few days, and to me the Beta versions seems to be better than the full version. The main issue I have with the full version is that its constantly causing my Tmo Wing to lock up or using all the available memory. When I installed it the beta version is still on my ppc and sometime I use the beta and that doesn't lock up as quick as the full version.
Anyone else tried it out? the trial version is available for download on Opera's website.
i have the full version. It works okay for me although it tends to hang at times depending the website im looking at. It helps if you disable animations and plug ins as they take up more memory to run.
I had it for a while. Opera Mini is much better.
Yeah I got opera mini also, but don't really care for it since it locks up a lot also..
my opera 8.65 beta works fine, I should just remove the full version and ride it out with the beta..
I rarely use PIE unless im on this forum, cause it loads faster.
Opera Mini never locks up on me. The only thing that bothers me is the lack of tabs.
I'm running Opera Mobile 8.65 full without any problems
the only reason i use full is that i seem to have a problem dowloading rar files with ie and opera mini.
i might just have to flash my rom to one of the ones out there like touch it 4.4, and maybe it will run smoother... im trying to find me a tilt/8925 for a good price first though before i do any rom flashes.
I remember using Beta.. I would use it to download from Rapidshare with my phone... then I upgraded to Full.... and suddenly, I couldn't download from Opera anymore..
How strange... usually you GAIN extra features when you pay for the full program..

wow u paid for it??... that's why I hate paying for a program till I test it out first... opera full has its issues, can't download from rapidshare, lock ups on the wing cause its using all your memory to load applets and run scropts from the page... opera 8.65beta runs fine for me does lock up but I have to be on a website that uses almost 10mb's loading up pictures and stuff...
Why the hell would anyone even use Opera Mobile? Its pretty slow and you can't even see Flash vids with it! Can't wait for SkyFire.

Opera Mini for me is about 4 or 5 times faster than PIE on all websites. Can't use flash though. I'm using opera mini all the time now to look up basic information cause PIE is so slow for me. Maybe it's just me
edit: Oh... Opera Mobile. Opera Mobile is only a tad bit faster than PIE.

Newer version of Opera Mobile and Flash support

I have read somewhere that there is a newer build of Opera Mobile than the one included with the Touch HD. This can be downloaded somewhere and is supposed to work with Flash Lite 3 for support of playing Youtube videos within the browser and so on.
Does anybody have experience with this? Does it support the WVGA-resolution on the Touch HD? Where can it be dowloaded?

Thanx Dodger for the link !
Installed the hacked VGA version of newest Opera with flash
But to be honest... i still use NetFront... i dont like this zooming all the time and Opera is not fast enough... i hope Microsoft will invent a good (!!!) web browser like Safari on the Apple. The newest Internet Explorer works like %!§/ , even slower than version 5!
I don't like the 15233 Build from the Omnia. The 15202 works better, because it still stores the settings into \windows\opera9 and not within the application data and the vibration for buttons still work with that build.
Is that "Flash" version of Opera really only for flash video pages like youtube, google video etc.? Or can it be used to view regular websites requiring a flash plugin?

opera mini5 beta

Hi everyone
Just installed this on my hd2 and like it but need to know how to transfer my favourites from my laptop browser (internet explorer) to my hd2 opera mini5.
thanks in anticipation
zip
the hd2 has opera installed as the default browser, why did you install another version?
you can use opera link, though you have to create an account.
opera mini
i installed this version because it looks better than the version installed on the phone , it loads quicker and has a nice interface . i also installed the link but it still doesnt transfer favourites.
It's a lot better than the one on the phone - shame you can't make it link in with Sense, and no multi-touch is an arse too
In other words .. it's better except it's worse ? I still use mobile 9.7.
I've just played with native mini 5, and it's nice, but mobile 10 is better in all aspects, and since I can't live without fluent zoom, I still use 9.7 anyway.

I could never get Flash working in Opera, until I got Opera 10. Now it works on most sites, and works great on YouTube, especially when switching to fullscreen! I still prefer to use the YouTube app though.
Ok
Ok now for install opera 10 i need to uninstall fix opera and flash lite?
And where can i see more how to install about opera 10 installation. Thank you

I wouldn't worry about uninstalling the flash stuff you've already installed. If you do want to do it then they should be in your "remove programs" list (Settings, Menu, All Settings, System, Remove Programs).
You can find out all you need about Opera 10 from http://m.opera.com
The only thing you need to remember is that you must turn on plugins when you've installed it, otherwise Flash won't work.
Can someone tell me
1. What are the major benefits between the version of Opera Mobile currently on the HD2 and this latest Opera Mobile version
2. Sam as above but major differences between Opera Mobile and Opera Mini
I am considering Opera mini as a fellow HD2 user states it is so much better than Opera Mobile
Many Thanks
thank you
thank you for all i´ll check that
Opera Mobile 10 is pretty much identical to opera mini now. But Mini runs inside java virtual machine, so no fullscreen, doesn't really like being put in the background, need to confirm connection each time you launch it,... so Mobile 10 is preferable. If you turn on Turbo mode it uses the server based rendering like mini.
Just try it and you'll see... personally I don't like the lack of pinch to zoom and somewhat broken zoom in OM10, so I stay with the default OM9.7.
I am using Opera 10 and i have turned on the plugins. I have also instaled flash lite 3.1 on my Asus P565. I can see some of the videos on youtube (not m.youtube) but not all of them.
Can you see all of the videos ?

Thanks, so is often the case new technology is often promoted with a one sided view i.e. all the benefits but not the delta changes (negatives). So I won't be going Opera Mini.
Turbo mode would be nice but losing a good zoom in feature means I'll also stick to what I have. Is this lower zoom capability by design or a bug (i.e. might be fixed one day)?
