Am I the only one that LOVES the double tap feature on the Storm?

Aha! Finally figured out the Bolt install problem for my Verizon 8330 Curve…Woot! I had too many apps/themes installed at one time. I had thought that Aerize Card Loader alleviated that concern…but apparently, it did not. Once I removed about 8 of my themes & about 10-12 other apps that I didn’t really find myself using after I installed them or just found them frivolous or duplicative…Bolt finally installed fine.

It’s a shame that the error messages I had received from the Bolt installer were totally misleading. The only reason I explored uninstalling apps/themes is because the install of a different app gave me a memory error.

Whew…now to check out this browser…FINALLY!

I can’t open any of the links. Support said to just sign up again. After 8 attempts..I’m stopping.

I don’t know what the deal is, but I’ve never been able to get this to install properly on my Verizon 8330 curve. I’ve tried literally 40+ times since the original announcement. I get to the point of downloading the install and I get an error: “907 Invalid JAR
The page you requested could not be loaded; it is too large for the device.”

Just about every app I have installed on my curve is installed on my 4GB media card (Aerize Cardloader rocks!), so I know I’ve got plenty of space. I’ve tried battery pulls. I’ve tried installing it to internal memory as well as on my media card. I’ve tried every version of the download, but the instructions explicitly say to download the unsigned build…

…How are people getting this to load on their BBC’s?

Every email I’ve sent to the author just says “download it again” despite providing error information and error log details.

I’m about ready to give up here…but I’d love to see what this browser is like.

are there any known incompatibilities with other programs out there?

This version is much better than the last one 0.73 on my Bold. Here are the list of issues as far as I’m concerned that got fixed:
Scroll issues: Gone, maybe a bit slow but better than toooooooo fast.
Password sign in: finally works.
Streaming video: it works off of the original Youtube link but you have to save the file first. m.nbc.com didn’t work as the rest of the browsers.
Back button: works now.
Speed: don’t get me wrong, but a super fast web browser…just got faster.

This is the real deal if you ask me….I am not regretting this download of 163 KB on my phone…ever

I actually think the browser itself is much improved. Still has major memory issues. It hogs the device from time to time. And the horizontal scroll is not fixed, vertical is though. Zooming is still too hard. Mobile view should convert the page to a mobile column view, but it doesn’t.

Not sure though why the developer(s) are too stupid to design an icon that looks halfway decent on the Bold. The resolution is what I am referring to…. its all 2004ish with its jaggies and low-rezzishness. Not that hard to act like your product came out recently. Look the part morons.

Oh, and the back button. Not sure how that was overlooked on the initial beta, but hey, I’m not perfect either.

I think it’s improved, especially the scrolling problem (although it still scrolls too slowly horizontally on my 8330). And nice to see they took care of the reconnect issue. It beats Opera Mini hands down (although it’s been a while since I used that one), at least at page rendering.

Funny, just this morning I was about to delete it because it was terrible on my 8830. I will let you know how it progresses though….

Still lags way too much when I try to scroll. Was hoping this version would fix it. Guess my 8830 can’t handle it.

I think I signed up previously, but I just signed up just now again, got the e-mail from them right away with the download link, but now get “ERROR: Some issue in query: URL Expired”
