This works great on my device. Very smooth, fast and nice interface. I haven't done exhaustive tests, but prima facia, a very big improvement on previous versions. Picks up favourites from PIE.

Working fine on my compact IV (diamond) :) Automatic rotation is better then before, but scroll wheel is not working for me. I love it anyway (for now):)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kelvar:
I installed and try on my Topaz and it works great turbo.

I do face a problem with suspending the device with opera 9.7 running.

Anyone with similar issues?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vtecbros:
works great on my omnia.

Awesome.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kancrutt:
how bout memory usage?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] randomelements:
Working fine on my WM6.5 ROM on my Nike :)

Will be great once they've got Turbo running properly so that downloads etc. work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] arvidh:
Same here. But you seem to be only other person to report this. Is anyone else facing the same problem?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] eric2k:
HTC Touch (vogue) running one of the latest 6.5 builds, QVGA seems to be messed up on this beta release.

Anyone have any suggestions or insights on how we can fix? I think it may have something to do with the OPENGL rendering or something.

i'm using Anryls latest 21725 WM6.5 Rom and did a hard reset before installing. Opera 9.7 won't even load :( and i can't find any log files....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] owziee:
WOW I love it! Works amazing on my Diamond, the hardware acceleration have done wonders to scrolling and the whole ui.

I do find it weird that it doesn't seem to cache anything even with Turbo disabled. I've installed it to the 4 gig internal storage and the cache directory is there in Opera folder and opera:config also points to that folder but the folder is always empty.

Not that it's a problem since pages loads very fast even without turbo but at the moment it seems the cache size setting is useless...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ekowanz:
:( it's weird in wm 6.5....maybe i hav to downgrade to wm 6.1 to make it run well

When I use the Phone Keypad Keyboard, I cannot input any characters in abc mode but I am able to in T9 mode and with the Qwerty Keyboard which I don't use.

I am using the stock ROM on my Sprint Diamond.

How does one update/import bookmarks into this version?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] operative1:
Thanks very much. seems that this fix does the trick :D

so for everyone using wm6.5 and opera 9.7 doesn't load.

download the drivers from http://www.htcclassaction.org/driverprogress.php#update_20081009_1

and http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=179892&d=1240603541

after that, opera should work fine.

and this is still the beta :D

Installed on my VGA Touch Diamond on Internal Storage, works PERFECTLY. Very fast, way better than 9.5, so far bugree. GREAT :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GunnarKarlsson:
I also want to know...:confused:

the bookmarks probably are in application data\opera 9.5\ folder somewhere but no luck...

the bookmarks are in the opera6.adr file. copy it into "\program files\opera mobile\profile" from "application data\opera 9.5\"

worked for me!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Northernmost:
Opera 9.7 and MS3

Tried it on my HD. Very nice and few noticeable problems so far:)

The one thing that bugged me was SPB Mobile Shell 3 (MS3) would insist on loading the 9.5 version from the Windows folder when I tapped on a bookmark in the MS3 favourites menu. I couldn't see any way of fixing this for MS3 in the registry.

However, copying operal.exe and opera9-ml.exe from the Opera 9.7 program files folder into the Windows folder "cured" this. I had to overwrite operal.exe which is cooked into my ROM so I had to use Resco Explorer to do that - Totalcommander will do the job too.

After doing that it all looks to work pretty well. Any attempt to browse the net uses whichever opera9-ml.exe is sitting in memory. So, depending on how Opera is started, you don't end up with the one from Windows and one from program files folders both chewing up your RAM. Also, all profile files (history, bookmakrs etc.) look to be updated under the \program files\opera mobile\profile folder regardless of which exe was started.

About the only down side I can see so far is that MS3 insists on pulling the Opera history from the \windows\opera folder. I can live with that!

how to turn off overview? i hate it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] colonel00:
Anyone else have issues with it identifying as a mobile device? It seems that the user agent string may be missing. If so, you can try adding the following line to the User Preferences in the Opera.ini

Custom User-Agent=Opera/9.50 (Windows NT 6.0; u; en) Presto/2.1.1

For those of you that were asking, Downloads, and saving of passwords, cookies does not work in Turbo mode (known issues).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchman71:
Didn't work unfortunately. Turbo mode turned off: cnn.com loads regular page fine but ESPN still loads the mobile page..

Hello,

Opera 9.7 beta 1 is worst ( personal opinion ) :(

* Graphic crashing

* Autokilling when loging into site ( i.e xda dev )

* Sticky

* Hangs the device ( Needs to perform softreboot ) ( Happened all the time ).

* Still testing... :(

Best Regards
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pcboyy:
in Turbo Mode, what does "Preview" mean? is it real Turbo function or just a teaser for next release/build?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pdx77:
It just means that it's not quite ready for prime time, so expect alot of bugs while using Turbo mode, downloads not working, not saving of passwords, etc.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Roflcopterrr:
is it just me or does doing a circular motion on the touch pro's d-pad not zoom pages in.. ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] cparkhorn:
Full Web Pages

I've got ATT Fuze Touch Pro, running the new ROM update that just came out. Installed Opera 9.7 and it works well, very well. No scroll wheel as described, seems very fast compared to the issues I've had with Opera Mobile in the past.

I'm running into an issue I've had in the past as well. I cannot get some Full Web Pages to load, kicks directly to mobile websites. I changed User Agent to 2, then in Prefs changed Custom User Agent to Mozilla/4.0(compatible; MSIE 6.0; NT 6.0; en) and still no joy on full web pages.

I went and hit default in Custom User Agent and it deleted UA, but still only getting mobile sites.

Opera Mobile is strange, some builds I install do full sites, some I make every change I can find and it won't load them.

I looked in the Opera.ini file and the custom ua is listed as is should be.

Anyone have any other suggestions on this? I've tried everything I can find anywhere on xda or on the web in general to no avail.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pdx77:
Is Turbo mode disabled?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kelvar:
Are you using turbo? I suspect the turbo server on Opera's side identifies itself as mobile browser when getting the page hence the mobile sites.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] barty22:
Wiiiiiiiii 9.7 is here! I am using it on windows mobile 6.5, on a Kaiser. It works perfectly, here are my experiences:

-as others have mentioned, saving passwords and downloads do not work in Opera Turbo, other than that Opera Turbo works nicely for general browsing

-the bookmarks menu is much faster than the slowish cr@p in 9.5 builds

-it is indeed very fast in rendering pages, also zooming in and out is very fast

-Flash works, but no better than it did in 9.5 builds... it's still a little buggy but sometimes it gets the job done. It also pops out of fullscreen when there is flash on the page

-the animation when it goes to fullscreen is super nice! The bottom menu and the address bar slide away :)

-the zoom slider button, which used to be in the bottom left cornor in most 9.5 builds is gone. The zoom slider option is now in the 'right click' menu

-the qvga skin that is installed has a few tiny cosmetical errors in it

-if you want to disable the redirection to the mobile version of a webpage, go to User Agent -> Spoof User Agent ID -> and set to 2. Disable mobile view in the normal settings menu.

Is this uninstallable?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sinoo:
Opera itself is working fine...

But I can't use my Touch-Pad... EzInput 1.5 is not working, non of the 3 choosable modes... So I switched to EzInput 2, but that is working neither!? :confused::(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tassadar898:
is there a way to make it so the text isnt all formatted before zooming. Do they not have TextReflow to rewrap the text when you zoom? I hate how ugly pages look with all the text shoved to the left of the screen.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aznmasterpiece:
yeah flash does work. i'm using flash 3.1. doesn't work too great tho. still lags when viewing youtube vids. can't wait for the final version.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LordDeath:
I uninstalled it because of two reason:

1. It did not use any disk cache on my device.

2. The text reflowing was very bad:

- zoomed out the text was still squeezed together like in the zoomed in view.

- in the landscape mode, the text reflowing remains the same as it was in the portrait mode. Instead of increasing the width of a text row it just zoomed into the text a bit more.

I did not find any way to prevent this, so I uninstalled it. :(

It's a shame that cookies aren't working in Turbo mode...

Can any developer give it a go in tweaking that problem?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MRFERRARI23:
thanx....I knew about opera:config lol just forgot about it...

well upon doing what you said with changing the value from 1 to 2 an having mobile view unchecked....im still getting mobile pages which sux!!!

I changed the value hit save an nothing oh well...:(

your saying that worked for you???
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] scholbert:
Hi!

Downloaded directly from opera's ftp server and installed it right away :D

No problems so far on my HTC Hermes!

I am using one of Josh's WM6.1 ROMs.

Rotating also is doing well.

So everything worked out nicely!

I will do some more tests in the next days....

Unbelievable... another person who refuses to test something so simple on their own. Would you like some cheese with that whine? There's a reason why nobody is posting pics, it's because we're ALL testing it!

Rather than wait so long for someone to upload images, why don't you just download it and try it out. It doesn't overwrite opera 9.5, so you could always just uninstall. If you're that paranoid that it might not be for you, ask someone nicely to upload images instead of 8itching.

Yes it is fast in loading but not very stable. At times the browser will lock up the wm6.5 and soft reset is impossible. You need to remove battery to do reset.

but skyfire is still good cant hate on it an mach5 one to is bad ass to!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lotherius:
Yes - I had the same problems as everyone else. Turns out it has NOTHING to do with an OpenGL driver as far as I can tell, that was a red herring.

The issue seems to be with NFSFan's ROM and perhaps some others. I rolled my own 6.5 ROM using BuildOS and it installs/runs perfectly now.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] redbandana:
Probably the best version of Opera I have seen. I usually do not install roms with opera because I used to hate it. I used 9.7b all day and the only issues I have noticed are the ones mentioned on the first post and sometimes when I click a link the browser highlights too many links at once so you aren't actually sure if you clicked the correct link or not.

Example: xda-developers.com>click forum>Homepage, donate, forum, wiki, all highlighted. (not a big deal though but it could be frustrating for other sites you are not familiar with.

How about landscape by editing registry?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] owziee:
Opera 9.7 beta is very nice but I've noticed it makes tf3d slow as hell until I soft reset again.

Every time I've completely closed Opera 9.7 tf3d starts to lag, if I press a tab it takes around 1.5 seconds before it reacts, after a soft reset the problem is gone.

This happens everytime I've used 9.7.

Wonder if it has something to do with the opengl renderer, is TF3D using it aswell?

Thanks man!! Works on my Sprint Touch(Vogue) with WM6.5
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] J.Tichi:
> Any others manage to get this working on there vogue's?

Opera 9.7 freezes the Bell Touch often for a few minutes when

it fetches a page from the net and at the same time

I press the menu up-arrow (lower right corner),

or long-press the screen anywhere for the context menu,

(like in those moments when the rest of the screen is supposed to turn darker)...

I did not have this with Opera 9.5 so I suppose it is a bug.

Overall 9.7 is an excellent browser and I'd keep it, but the bug

I just described is very annoying.

I wonder if anyone else experiences this problem, and if there any cures for now?

P.S. I'm using latest stock Bell ROM

Video Clip of Opera v9.7 Beta in action

I have made this video clip using Activesync and Everywan Remote, so the lag you see is from this connection. It is much faster on the device. Much faster.

I couldn't get Activesync to connect to the internet, so you can't see web pages.

I'll try sort this out and make another clip browsing web sites.
