Hello my friends,
I juste would like to discuss with you about the futur of web browser on our famous wm6.5 OS !
I use Opera 9.7 36053 which is the latest release from the OOBOE or Hengshan ROM.
-> This build is not available on opera website, but, HTC has all these builds, so do you think that HTC or Opera could give us a new build if possible ?
In addition, we don't have a browser supporting HTML5 so anyone here have informations about the future of our browser ?
Does Opera release a new Opera Java browser ?
Do you think that it will be possible to hack the Mango's browser to our WM6.5 ( can dreaming ).
If anyone have some informations, please share it !
I love WM6.5, I love my HD2, but it will be famous to having a better internet experience
Thanks for reading,
best regards,
Nixeis
short answer: nope.
yes, we have 9.7.36053 from oboe, but it's still the same old presto-engine. and if htc ever releases a new winmo-rom - i doubt it. and even then, it would still be the same old engine.
opera itself stopped developing for winmo, officially. (no mini6, no opera 11)
the only good news is regarding native mini 5: changes on the servers (to display sites correctly) still are done for it as well, not only mini 6. sure, you can use java-versions too, but it's never the same experience.
I downloaded opera 10 directly from the opera site its self. Seems to be a newer version than OBOE!
maybe that's because oboe has opera mobile 9.7 and you got opera mobile 10. see the difference? ^^ opera 10 is nice in theory, but it's a memhog and worse on some pages compared with 9.7. they fixed lots of stuff with 11, but we don't get it...
i prefer mini5 as main browser and 9.7 as backup.

LOL! Yeah, I wrote a long email within Opera on my ebay account, tapping away, got to the end.... oops a typo, better correct that.... DOH! nooooo! the delete key becomes the back key. Yeah, plain stupid.
well DEL is used as back in every PC browser, but "should" be disabled when in a textbox.
Does anyone know of a fix for this? I currently select the text by holding down the shift and replace it with the characters I want, or go before the offending text and use Fn Delete. Its hard enough banging out some moan on a forum while on a train!!
definately agree with this one...REALLY annoying!
well that opera is way worse than it's desktop and mini counterpart
is there any way to uninstall it? and what's the best alternative for that?
USe MINI Opera or the Beta 2 - much newer Build
Load Opera Mini or the BETA of Opera 9.5
It is newer and faster
I'm using the 9.5 beta, it's much faster, and doesn't do that.
I looked at opera mobile website and it says that the latest version is 9.51b, is that's the newest? it has been from July!?
where to get the newest?
I have opera 9.51b installed on my Xperia and indeed it's much faster than the Opera 9.5 version which standard comes with the T-mobile branded version. However the standard installed Opera is still on my phone besides the new beta version. Does somebody know how I can uninstall the older version? It's not in the uninstall programm list...
waitin' for a good browser
since 3 years i'm waiting for a good browser for pocketpc or other small devices. but nothings happened yet. opera & iphones safari cannot handle sites with DHTML and javascript for a comfort surfing the web.
we can only hope for opera next versionen or the new pocket IE.
Strange! It doesn't happen on my Vodafone-branded X1 when I press the key slowly and carefully. But it does sometimes when I'm deleting more characters and press it repeatedly and quickly! I have originally installed version 9.5 build 2141 of the Opera.
for me, DEL acts like DEL - but ONLY in text mode!!! so everything is normal.
Sorry but the mobile safari Browser on the iPhone is very good. I can not understand anyone telling it is crap.
Sure some sites will not work - BUT THIS IS A MOBILE DEVICE !!!!
And on Windows Mobile the first browser which gives us a good experience in browsing is OPERA - still it is not as good as safari but it is good. Only not so nice that opera does not offer newer Builds.
There is beta 1 and 2 and the versions on HTC devices and on the X1 - they are all old builds so there is a big missmatch around.
THE ACTUAL OPERA MOBILE BETA is calles 9.51b2.cab
so the x1 operia is older than the official beta? strange cause the build number is lower...

MobileFirefox is not for WM phones, it's for desktop PC's.
Minimo is a mozilla based WM browser.

Fennec is the true mobile firefox, alas no working WM builds yet..
Minimo is no longer supported
However if the version of fennec you can use on the desktop is anything to go by this will be superb!

Not SEX1's fault, bugs come from Opera, all devices use it have all the same old issues. We gotta wait for Opera mobile team to comes up with the next stable release.
hey all i have bought myself an qtek s200, now i would have my internet some faster...
is there an browser what's faster then internet explorer?
like firefox?
i have tried minimo, but thats not good to show normal websites...
i hope you can help me...
with friendly greeting,
mark
What I use is UCWEB its the best for me also for the Full PC experience Get Skyfire its a must have also try opera mini & opera mobile there both Great the is a firefox browser but its for Nokia and its in beta so we have to wait for it in the mean time try these ok
Try the Opera 9.5 until the Firefox --> "Fennec" will released...
when will fennec come out, anybody knows about it?
or will it only release for sybian and android/linux?
as far as i know it already works for the Nokia Internet Tablet N810 in a alpha2 version.
SO we have to while. But the Opera 9.5 is not as bad as u maybe suppose. I will use it in the meanwhile.

Opera Mobile eats Ram so be careful you should try opera mini aswell and UCweb and Iris Browser Get Skyfire it Rocks
i would like to test skyfire, but i does not install successfull. Strange.
Could u post a proper .cab? Thx
Try Netfront
Try Netfront 3.5, set it to 'text browsing' and disable all those useless bells and whistles like the fake 3D bookmarks manager. You'll get a very fast browser which enables you to read most useful sites in text mode while allowing you to go 'back' to 'full browsing' (with javascript and all that jazz) to use those few useless sites which insist on it. It has finger scrolling as well. IMnsHO this is currently the best browser for WM devices, beating Opera (memory hog) and PIE (no comment).
The version I linked to is a beta which will run out in a few months, I've been running previous betas for a while now without problems. When the beta runs out there will either be a new beta or the final release. If the latter will run unrestricted I don't know...
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 %!ยง/ , 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?
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.
Does anyone know if there are any plans to release a Firefox browser app for the HD2? I tried out the new Opera 10 browser the other day but I don't think its any better than the older version - I'd much prefer to use Firefox!
From what I know they have halted development on the firefox development of Fennec due to WM7 issues.
If you want to download the latest version of Fennec use the link below:

Hope this helps.
I personally love Opera 10, but hey - each to their own!
Try this. It should help
http://mobile.support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+install+Firefox+on+Windows+Mobile
opera10 is great but it lacks the native pinch-to-zoom and some other features htc implemented in hd2's stock opera 9.7
just use SKYFIRE, skyfire is awesome..
