Hey I just download Opera Mini 5 beta ... and it seems to be best browser of all even opera native or Iris or Picsel or Webby or IE (mobile) or Skyfire and other browser I have tried and forgotten names.

Here is my comparison on HTC 3300 on an EDGE n/w in India

Browser Stability Speed Tabs Finger touch

Opera 7.1 beta BAD LOW BAD VERY BAD

PICSEL OK Medium N/A GOOD

Webby GOOD LOW BAD N/A

IE GOOD Medium N/A n/A

Skyfire WORSE LOW Hmm.. WORSE

OPERA Mini GOOD GREAT GREAT GREAT

In my opinion Opera MINI does much better than any commercial product today...

[General Topics] [deXter]:
Adding their own onscreen keyboard to solve the issue of OS-independent input: GENIUS, I mean really, I never thought they'd solve it this way! Plus this allows for inline search, text input and copy-paste. Pure genius!

Only thing is, I personally dislike their design of the On Screen Keyboard. It's a ripoff of other popular OSKs out there, like the iPhone one, or HTC/FingerKeyboard/PCMKeyboard/TouchPal/VITO etc. Specifically, I don't like the fact that it occupies so much space on the screen and that each time you press a key a balloon pops up. SERIOUSLY, I don't get the balloon at all! Why do every so-called finger friendly OSKs have the balloon? It doesn't make any sense! Can someone please care to explain how its of help in ANY WAY? I think its just an hindrance and it adds unnecessary lag.. I mean, it's not like you can't see what you're typing; would you rather look at the input field to make corrections, or keep an eye out for the balloon to see what you've pressed? I think it makes more sense to look at the input field and hence the balloon is useless.

Just my 2 cents.
[General Topics] style1:
when you have big fingers like i do...its very easy to press the wrong button because of the size of the screen (don't have that problem as much with my Touch HD) having the balloon works very well. And the onscreen keyboard is amazing...yes its a ripoff of popular keyboards but I think that was the point...it was always annoying in the past to set keyboards for Opera and then it would popup with another keyboard...LAG...then change to the proper keyboard. Its an amazing keyboard its an amazing browser. No complaints
[General Topics] DarkHorse:
Very nice browser...

I've just a complain... when I copy a text from a webpage I'm not able to paste it outside the app...for exemple in a note or sms... It's possible to paste it just in operamini... :(

Anyway it's a very good piece of software!!

I need a cab-File for my windows mobile 6 device...

at the opera-site "http://www.opera.com/mini/next/" my browser (xda herald) said: device not found - so I cannot download it ....
[General Topics] deedee:
My trinity was also a "device not found" but it let me install the generic WM version. It rocks.

Yes i know its an early beta but for me it's one feature missing from the previous version, synch'd favourites with the desktop client.

Also it would be nice for someone to CAB it up to provide a link on the start menu same as was done with 4.1, oh and remove the security/connection warnings.

Not asking much am i? :):):)
[General Topics] deedee:
OK, i've managed to get a shortcut created now to remove the security/warning issues. For those that ask, all i did was copy the existing Opera Mini shortcut and edit it to point to s1 instead of s0. Ok, just looked properly and it's wrecked the nice icon, now showing the default JBed one.

As for the pop up on the keyboard, great idea for those fields where you can't see what you are really typing, password ones in particular.
[General Topics] deedee:
Ok, solved the permissions issue, it seems that by default i downloaded the unsigned version from Opera, searching their forums gave the extra i needed;

on your phone go to m.opera.com/next and then scroll down to "Other download options" -> "Select signing certificate". pick a certificate and you will be returned to the download page, now download and let it install.

all that's left now is to fix the icon in the start menu and wait for them to add bookmark synch back in. This has been left outof the beta at this point.
[General Topics] segadc:

Liking it. But hangs on save page :-(.

Also how to create direct shortcut. I created one "Opera Mini 5.lnk" with "28#"\Windows\jbed.exe" -run s1_" but it says Suite S1 not found. It is installed as s1. Old operamini is installed as 's0' and link works fine.
[General Topics] [deXter]:
Well atleast they should provide an option for getting rid of the balloon for those who prefer to use a stylus and/or have small fingers. All the other finger-friendly SIPs do.

Working wonderfully

I've installed in on my phone and it is just the best browser all around.

I've tested it on allot of website that due to the coding don't work with opera/IE/skyfire/operamini4.

[General Topics] jdta09:
When I go to my igoogle page it comes up in a Scandinavian language. What's that about? It won't display my google apps homepage at all, it takes me to another Scandinavian google page.

Also here in the Uk you can't use www.bbc.co.uk properly as it won't believe you're in the UK.

I get the strange search where seems foreign pages come before UK but access BBC fine, did you install via .cab or use the opera page if so try again with the instruction @ top of last page on how to get signed ;)
[General Topics] [deXter]:
As far as Google is concerned, you need to go to the Preferences page and set it to always display in English.

I'm sure there must be a similar setting for BBC, if not, you could use any of the billions of web-proxies around :)

How do I create a direct shortcut to it? Using resco, I created a shortcut to Jbed.exe. I changed the 'Target' to

(I have only 1 app, Opera mini 5, installed)

But clicking on this opens Jbed in which I have an option to click on Opera Mini. Is it possible to open Opera right after clicking on the shortcut?
[General Topics] stylez:
Read back one page and i linked a shortcut and .dll ;)

The shortcut opens Java then executes Opens Mini all in one swoop :)

The Opera Mini servers are probably in Scandinavia, so Google assumes that that's where you are.

is it posible to disable that "tap to zoom" or what's it called....and I can't download anything with it? do I need signed version? how to get one for SE Xperia?...
[General Topics] [deXter]:
By default its signed.. by Opera Software ASA. Although afaik the Verisign and Thwate certificates aren't out yet. You can't download because they've intentionally disabled downloads.
[General Topics] netnerd:
WTF is the enter/return key?

it only got backspace key!

Oh, it's a "Search" key from the Google box.

Problems

I like it mostly, but it does have some problems with Touch Pro 2

1. It's not quick. plain and simple. It lags quite a bit doing anything.

2. The on screen keyboard is annoying, and while nice for other phones, their should be an option to disable it.

3. When using my hardware keyboard, sometimes it will 'double type' key-presses.

4. The program icon doesn't show up under the Program list, I have to go under JavaFX program to run it, and their doesnt seem to be an option to copy the program shortcut on to the main start menu.
[General Topics] 8525Smart:
As far as I see, the zoom option is chosen within the options menu. Did Opera Mini ever have this option? I've been using Opera Mini 4 for a long time and I never even knew about this.

Anyway, to get on topic, I just started using Opera Mini 5 beta yesterday, and it is simply magnificent. OM4 was already the best browser as far as I was concerned, but OM5 just completely blows it out of the water. It looks sleek, stylish, usability is highly improved, and the performance remains intact.

If the beta is this good, I can't wait until the final product is out.
[General Topics] stylez:
2. Disable Inline Editing in Settings\Advanced...

4. If you look back a couple of pages for the .lnk & .ico i linked open up the .lnk with notepad and change the location to wherever JavaFX is... :)
[General Topics] XavierGr:
Every time I try to download something it fires up Internet Explorer. Anyway to make it download files with it's native interface?

This browser is so good that I am annoyed with the full Opera Mobile browser. If they can make such a good browser for the java platform why can't they do this natively in Windows Mobile? Turbo mode in Opera Mobile 9.7 is in no case so good as Opera Mini 5.

Please Opera, I want native support for this diamond (I want copy-paste, d-pad scrolling, etc)...
[General Topics] EyeAmRubber:
Weird, a lot of people are reporting that it's faster than v4. Maybe your phone just isn't fast enough.

Blame Java.
[General Topics] jez83uk:
Been trying it out and comments so far:

Pros:

1) Easy to download the signed version so no connection confirmations required every time.

2) Runs incredibly smoothly. I am amazed that my Hermes can make anything look this slick.

3) In-Line editing is an improvement on OM4.

4) Password manager works very well.

Cons:

1) The keyboard doesn't have predictive text, so it is necessary to type out the whole word.

2) No Carriage Return on the keyboard, and the hardware one is ignored.

3) If I turn off in-line editing, although I can type text out, I can't select done or cancel, so have to quit OM5 and start again.

4) Can't create custom searches like in OM4.

5) Can't directly add a bookmark to the 9 shortcuts.

6) The exit confirmation box is annoying.

7) Sometimes goes to a white screen and freezes when I open the hardware keyboard and to phone switches to landscape mode.

8) No d-pad (or scroll-wheel) controlled mouse like on OM4.

Overview

Very impressed with this beta, and am already using it as my primary method of browsing on my phone, replacing OM4.2.

Assuming my few gripes are addressed in the final release, I can see no reason not to call it the best browser available.
[General Topics] EyeAmRubber:
Blame Java. It doesn't have access to the phone's T9 dictionary. You need to disable inline editing to use the phone's editor, and then you will get T9.

Read the known issues. It didn't make it into the beta.
[General Topics] cumanzor:
Hey everyone. Been trying this beta for a few days now. Having a rather old device (Treo 750) it can be very difficult to find a good browser. Opera Mini 5 beats them all. I'm just having a small issue. I cannot find an enter key in the inline editor, and I've I disable it I cannot get out of the system editor unless I kill the program irself. A ny ideas??
[General Topics] timetraveler:
were is link to find the opera mini 5 beta ???
[General Topics] bfarkin:
I've now been testing this for a couple of days...

... together with half a dozen other browsers, and I think it has great promise! Looking forward to the release with working download manager, etc.

BTW, one of the browsers against which I've been testing it is the UCWEB 7.0 beta, and I must say I'm pretty amazed (negatively as well as positively). First negatively because a lot of it looks, ahem, familiar. A lot of the graphics seem, well, inspired by OM5. But OTOH it's a lot more mature than OM5 running directly under WM, everything works (if you don't mind seeing Chinese text now and then), scrolls nicely, uses finger gestures for forwards and backwards, has a nice night viewing skin and an excellent download manager. But I do feel a bit guilty about using it, the latest version uses a Chinese server which blocks some sites and a lot of it is such a blatant ripoff. OK, now I've said it ;-)

Check out www.ucweb.com and their forum for the latest English PPC version.

Back to OM5: has anyone managed to get offline typing with other keyboards to work? With my TouchPal it crashes every time....
[General Topics] lennyjaxn:
From what i can tell, Opera Mini 5 is really great. It's slick, fast, and looks sharp. Best of all, it's not IE. However, I'm holding off on really testing it until they get Opera Link straightened out. This was a curious feature for them to disable. I have too many bookmarks, and have been flashing too much lately, to want to set it all up over and over again.

Stil don't work

! SOLVED !

Hi

Have copied dll to windows folder, but stille same result using this shortcut. Jbed is activated showing the msg "Can't find MIDlet suite s1_shortcut".

Then after closing msg I have the usual option to chose OperaMini 4 or OperaMini 5 (just same as executing jbed.exe).

Anybody any idea ow to make this shortcut work?

Found a second jbed.exe in folder "\programs\Opera Mini\" and I have to use "s3_" instead of "s1_"
[General Topics] addicus:
1. My download manager works. If I download & save the jad/jar files through IEmobile or the PC Mini 5 is unsigned. If I get it through Mini 4 I cannot save the file but it will install the signed version which allows the signing.

2. SPB full keyboard works for me without making it crash.

3. I am so pissed Opera Link is deactivated. This in particular is limiting my current usage.

Try editing the link file to show

or if you want with Opera Icon (preferable)

Speed Dial Buttons custom images?

Hi

OperaMini 5 have nine Speed Dial Buttons.

When assigning a link OperaMini generates a small image (thumb).

This small screen often is ugly or even misleading :(

Information about Speed Dial Buttons is stored in a DB file.

In my case in a file called s3_d4.db.

Format is JFIF (JPG) 195x195 pixels.

Using a HEX editor I can locate the start and end of a thumb.

For example: bitmap generated for link www.easypoi.dk start with "ÿØÿà..JFIF" and ends with "ÿÙ".

Its even possible to read image number (in this example "IMG0").

................ beginning of file is cut .......................

45 61 73 79 50 4F 49 00 16 68 74 74 70 3A 2F 2F ; EasyPOI..http://

77 77 77 2E 65 61 73 79 70 6F 69 2E 64 6B 2F 00 ; www.easypoi.dk/.

02 27 30 00 04 01 7F 10 00 00 00 0C 00 00 4C B8 ; .'0..........L¸

00 00 23 30 00 00 23 1B FF D8 FF E0 00 10 4A 46 ; ..#0..#.ÿØÿà..JF

49 46 00 01 ; IF..

................ (some 5-6 kb JFIF image data cut out here) .......................

9A D7 A2 8A 00 28 A2 8A 00 28 A2 8A 00 28 A2 8A ; š×¢Š.(¢Š.(¢Š.(¢Š

00 28 A2 8A 00 FF D9 00 05 27 49 4D 47 30 ; .(¢Š.ÿÙ..'IMG0

................ end of file is cut .......................

I can copy this bitmap, save it as a JFIF file and open it in a image editor .... but I still haven't had any succes replacing it with a custom made image. :confused:

I really hope that the final OperaMini 5, supports custom images/icon but until that ... a small "Speed Dial Buttons Editor" would be nice.

So anybody with skills and time to spend ... PLS make a small tool :rolleyes:

It's still way too pre-beta. Beta should be feature complete by definition, this is not feature complete.

Sync bookmarks and old feeds lists are missing completely.

If you have all your bookmarks in MyOpera, you can't *easily* get to them and use them.

Going back to v4 myself.
[General Topics] PowerupMobile:
Can someone tell me what the difference between Opera Mini and Opera Mobile are? They both seem to be mobile web browsers but are at different versions. Also if you try and download from the list of supported devices the list is seriously out of date. Can you just choose a similar device, I need a Windows Mobile 6 version.

Download Manager and Hardware Keyboard

The download manager isn't working on the signed version either. That is my mistake. Also it doesn't recognize my hardware keyboard on my Hermes unless I'm typing. The cut/paste feature does work.
[General Topics] EyeAmRubber:
Nah, these days "beta" simply means "public testing needed". Technically you are correct, but the rest of the world has moved on. Look at Google's perpetual beta status for some services.
[General Topics] lennyjaxn:
Yeah, I misspoke. I didn't mean "disabled" as in "this version will never have it", just that it's inconvenient for me to fully test-drive it without it. But yeah, Opera says they haven't finished smoothing out that part of the implementation. When they do I'll hop back on board, because the little exposure that I had to it was awesome. I just can't believe how fast and smoothly it runs while at the same time looking all bright and shiny. Good, clean coding I guess. Pay attention, MicroSoft.
[General Topics] [deXter]:
Opera Mobile is a native browser, native as in compiled with a specific platform in mind (eg: Windows Mobile, Symbian, etc). It's core engine is based on the same codebase as that of the desktop version of Opera.

Opera Mini on the other hand is a platform-independent browser, so the same file can run on many platforms (as long as it supports Java). This browser was written completely from scratch and shares very little code with the desktop version (if any).

Pro's and Cons:

--------------

Opera Mobile

-------------

Pros:

- Full support for dynamic web technologies, like JavaScript, AJAX, DHTML, Flash, Google Gears, and other plugins.

- Takes advantage of and (generally) works well with device specific features like scroll wheel, hardware keypad, accelerometer

- Supports variable/custom zoom levels

- Download manager supports concurrent downloads

Cons:

- Can be slow and heavy, depending on the hardware

- No support for graphical speed dial

- No support for Opera Link and Feeds

- No support for server-side compression (Except in v9.7 but its quite unstable)

- No support for server-side page-reformatting (can be solved by using mlvb, skweezer, GWT etc)

Opera Mini:

----------

Pros:

- Fast and light, on most hardware

- Graphical speed dial and tab-previews

- Supports Opera Link and Feeds (Not in OM5 beta)

- Server-side compression and page-reformatting

Cons:

- Server-side compression can't be avoided (might cause some issues with some sites, eg, appearing in Scandinavian languages)

- Partial support for JavaScript/DHTML, but no support for Flash, AJAX, Gears, etc.

- No Device-specific features, like auto-rotating screen based on orientation

- Only two zoom levels

- Download manager supports only one download at a time (Not sure about OM5)

---------------

I'm sure this can be expanded more, but this is just a rough overview. I personally use both Opera Mobile and Opera Mini based on the sites I want to surf. Generally though I prefer Mini since it saves me data costs.
[General Topics] PowerupMobile:
Thanks Dexter. Another pro for Opera Mini by the looks of things is it is free where as Opera Mobile you need to pay for.

I just downloaded the very small Java files and it ran no problem. Unfortunetaly I can't get a connection right now but will give it a go later and post what I think.
[General Topics] [deXter]:
Opera Mobile is free now; I'm not sure about the exact license terms, but atleast v9.7 is free to use. As for 9.5 it's usually bundled with most devices (HTC for instance).
