Pandora isn't a playlist application in that it usually can't be targeted to play a specific track. Because if you ask for a certain track, it will just consider it a seed and build a new station around it.

Setting a track to thumbs down should make it so you never hear it again. Odd that you would. Unless the free version is acting strangely.

Along with thumbs down, you can also choose the "don't play this track again for a month" in the song menu. Then you definitely won't hear it again, at least for a few weeks.

Sounds like you'd be better off with Slacker or Finetune so you can build a specific playlist.

Wow, I love this board...! :)

Opera mobile 10.1 beta works like a charm on my Galaxy S Doc Froyo XWJPO v7.6.2. It even downloads flash-videos (e.g. tagesschau.de) and opens them with the internal video player. Only live stream is not working.

Thanks a lot. Is Opera going to publish this version or will Opera Mobile 10 for Android only be pre-installed on selected devices? (I read something like that on areamobile.de --> uu.uu.uu.areamobile.de/news/13631-opera-mobile-10-jetzt-auch-fuer-android)
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] emmarbee:
Isn't the final version going to be released today?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Meister_Li:
Works amazingly fast and smooth on my galaxy s. I love it! It doesn't play all our even most flash content so it can't yet replace the stock browser, but once plugin support is there, I'll only use this one for sure!
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] sci05:
Will the mobile version compress data like mini did?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Masterface7:
I has an option to use compression or not.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Idan73:
What I like the most is reflow on pinch to zoom same way as on my nexus modded aosp stock used to be. Very familiar as symbian user as well.

No flash yet. Hope it comes.

Available on market now!!!

Also for those not familiar with the opera you can change opera user agent by opera:config menu (many other settings as well like cache, ram management etc.). User agent 2 will give you desktop and will auto launch youtube app so it's still better quality than what you get by default on mobile site as a consultation for not having full flash.

How do you get to the advanced settings? I cant seem to find it on this beta release
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Maddmatt:
Gave it a quick try. Very good but still not perfect.

When zooming in the images and text are blurry for a second and it only updates after you stop zooming, unlike the stack browsers where it's instant.

It is very smooth when scrolling though.

Also in landscape mode, I can't zoom out fully. This is weird, why do they do this? It's not as bad as Opera Mini was in landscape but it still prevents this from being as nice to use as Dolphin HD. I want full control of zoom all the time, not just in portrait mode.

Also can't import bookmarks from the stock browser. Hope they add this ability.

Needs an exit button for when you don't want to leave it in the background, like Dolphin HD. Sometimes you want to close it so it doesn't return to it's previous state and rather starts 'fresh'.

Will keep it to see future updates and maybe if I want to preserve bandwidth when using mobile data. But Dolphin HD will stay as my default for now.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Idan73:

Imports bookmarks and speed dial from desktop version. And unlike chrome to phone it actually works.

Agree with you for the rest except this is my browser of choice now. Waiting on beta 2

Sent from my i9000M
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Maddmatt:
Depends on the site.

As a test go to myadsl.co.za.

In Dolphin HD (and I assume default browser too) when I hold the phone in landscape I can see the whole width of the site.

But on Opera I cannot, it refuses to zoom out that far.

It also seems to take longer to load the page (using Wi-fi), regardless of the Opera Turbo setting. This might just be someone else in the house using the connection at the same time as me though.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] blackstoneuser5:
I'll give it a go later and maybe post back my findings. Opera Mobile on Symbian and Windows mobile were very good and i'd tried Opera Mini on some dumbphones as well and it worked well. I hadn't tried Opera Mini for Android as I didn't like the idea of only being restricted to using Opera's proxies (I assume that was the only option).

Opera Mobile 10.1 Beta for Android direct link from Opera or pick a version yourself over here.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bennettg:
I really was interested in having the youtube app playback youtube videos instead of the stock player. i changed the user agent to 2 as you describe above and it didnt work. i tried clearing cache, cookies, etc and restarting my phone. i have a htc droid eris running 2.1. can you provide more details on how you were able to get the youtube app to launch automatically from opera mobile?

thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Idan73:
Sorry seems web ignores uset agent string right now but if you go to bottom of youtube page and select full site next time you launch opera it will remember it and launch app respectively.

[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bennettg:
Thanks for trying, but it didnt work for me. it must have somethign to do with the url on youtube. It tried to launch the youtube player as you indicated but i got an error that it couldnt connect to the server.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] Toss3:
Set it to whichever string you want from "User Prefs" -> "Custom User Agent" :)

Opera Mobile is the first browser to actually challenge the stock one for mobile browsing supremacy.
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] bennettg:
I tired string 2 as discussed above but it didnt work. i am a bit of a noob, so can you go through the exact settings when i do about:config? is there an index of what user agents the numbers correspond to? for example, when i use skyfire, the videos launch just fine in the youtube app. however, i agree with you abotu opera mobile and this is the only thing i need to be all set.

thanks in advance

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nerz:
I was reading about someone using a phone such as wm fuze as a bluetooth gps receiver. After doing some search I found some apps for both fuze and captivate. Gps2blue for fuze and bluetooth gps provider for android. The fuze app is supposed to send gps info from the fuze to the captivate which uses its program to receive. However I can't seem to get them to link via bluetooth. Has anyone tried this or got it to work? My gps isn't completely broken but here soon, I am found to need reliable gps.so this would work great.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buddy17:
wow...i actually have a brand new Fuze sitting around under my bed not being used. This would be pretty sweet. Look forward to see what comes out of this.

I also have an iphone 3g with broken wifi....if the wifi worked, i was just going to keep that in my truck and use Mobile AP and connect the 3g to wifi and use google maps on the 3g. Could you not do the same for the Fuze??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nerz:
probably, but with only a 200 mb plan, I'm trying to use copilot on my phone and limit data usage. Of course with captivate alone. Gps is hit or miss. Mainly miss :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nerz:
Ok, so I found a way using gpsgate on a wm phone. Works on both my fuze and my tilt. Must say I really love how accurate my tracks are now using a phone from more than 2 years ago. Kinda sux having to resort to 2 phones for accurate tracks, but I love google maps saying my accuracy is 1~4 meters accurate. Even works flawlessly with copilot.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buddy17:
how about some setup instructions for someone who has not used windows mobile for more than 5 minutes?? haha i have had the fuze forever, but never used it. tips like installing the app, setting it up, etc etc

or since i have an unlimited data plan, what about just using the fuze as a gps anyway? How would that work?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nerz:
I used my fuze all the time, but I only used garmin on it. Im going to try and find some information on setting up and I'll edit here. I found a similar post and after googling how to do it, I remem hearing the program used to do out was posted in that. Gpsgate is like a 2week trail, but I think its 15 bucks. So hopefully froyo will fix come and I'll know if I'm buying full version.

How to:

Fuze setup:

on the fuze internet explorer, go to www.franson.com where u can download the cab (same as apk for android, but for wm). Install the file. During the first run you should go through a setup wizard. On the first screen it has some search options, I only clicked wired and built in gps. It should find on com 4, whatever it finds i don't think out matters, as long as it finds it. Next is the share setup. I used option 2 and 3, share with nmea and share over bluetooth, I know bluetooth is needed, not sure about the other. Next hit finish. Of course make sure bluetooth is on and set to discoverable. Also so that phone doesn't shut off while navigating, go to power settings and make sure the phone doesn't turn because I'm petty sure if it does it will stop sending gps information (do by going to power settings) That's it for fuze.

For android:

I think under developer settings, allow mock positions need to be enabled. Download bluetooth gps provider off market. On it go to preferences and search for gps provider. Find it device, select it and then back to main screen and hit start, if it fist gps has locked it should work. Should show how many data locked and what not here.

Apps like gps test won't show locked stats but will put accuracy up. Way its done, not sure of how accurate that value is. Seems pretty well.

finally =D

this could probably be the point why i change to android now.

the opera mobile browser was always the best i found, not only fast in browsing, its even fast to handle, i mean, tab switching is so easy and fast, so much faster than on standard android browser, and i dont need pinch to zoom, cause opera mobile on winmo got so awsome one tap, double tab zoom...

i hope the android version will be like that too :)))

gonna use it today..

[Android Apps and Games] android53:
Its a good start, java needs bugfixing and the rendering isn't quite right, especially the blur after zooming.

The pinch to zoom is amazingly fast and smooth though
[Android Apps and Games] Phrack:
This is a full browser for android, just like Xscope or stock browser.

Opera Mini is not a browser but a web client, like Skyfire, UCWEB or Bolt - they connect to remote servers that render internet pages then send them to your device. They seem fast because they don't use your phone's CPU. If their server is inaccesible (as has happened to me with Skyfire & Opera Mini) you can't connect to ANY websites at all. I believe Skyfire is blocked in certain countries.

Opera Mobile, Xscope, Dolphin/stock browser use your device's CPU to render and display web pages, just like your PC. This is why some pages take longer than others due to scripts/CSS processing rendered in realtime.

Opera Mobile has a 'Turbo' feature which in fact toggles 'Opera Mini-mode' - it uses Opera's servers to retreive and render web pages. This is a nice feature since it is obviously faster using their servers. In the event their servers are overloaded and can't connect you can surf the normal, slower way.

I realize this is only beta but they definitely need to cut the install size down a bit and improve the rendering speed - About the same speed as Xscope 6. Not a bad effort though. Can't handle scrollbars but neither can Xscope, Dolphin or stock browser. Haven't tried Fennec.

I hope this clears up the confusion between Web Browsers and Web Clients.

[Android Apps and Games] thedicemaster:
turbo works differently from mini.

for opera mini websites are completely repacked into a small lightweight package, and then sent to the phone.

turbo however is a proxy server that compresses what it can compress, but doesn't repackage it into a different format.

mini has problems with some interactive content because it's rendered serverside, and then sent as a snapshot to you.

in turbo mode interactive content is still handled on your phone.

so opera mini is still faster than mobile with turbo, but mobile with turbo will have less problems with sites.

About time and passes the Acid3 test 100/100

I have been waiting for this for some time. I am so glad it is here. Just tried out a few sites and it is very fast. Pinch zooming is very fast on my Incredible. I've never been a fan of pinch zoom and can't seem to get the tap zoom to work all the time. As always, IMHO, Operas rendering for screen reading if far superior to any other browser I have used. I am also getting around 90 MB memory usage with one tab open. A few issues with getting into text boxes and their placement on the screen at times, not near as bad as Fennec Beta. Add in flash support and I can finally get rid of all these other browsers.

Acid3: Opera Mobile 10.1 Beta passes the Acid3 test 100/100 :) where stock Browser, Dolphin, xScope 6 & Skyfire all score 93/100. Opera Mini 5 scores a 97/100. Fennec and UC Browser fail completely.

Scrolling pages is so much smoother than dolphin/xscope/stock, images look clean and sharp, displays animated gifs.

Using it on a Sony Ericsson X10, so no pinch zoom but it's still very functional, using 120% zoom and size 18 font.

Is this the only browser on Android that actually supports animated GIFS? :confused:

Is this version using hardware acceleration btw? I thought the opera devs said that the beta would not be using it but pages scroll so smooth that it makes me believe that it does have hardware acceleration.

[Android Apps and Games] ravi84m:
not exactly true... android uses its own webkit based browser. making chrome or any other application that runs on a (x86 instruction set)-like work on a RISC-like based platform like android will require a lot of work if not starting a completely new project.
