Great browser for everybody except those who don’t want to buy a really expensive phone. It is extremely slow on my phone. I thought that was the whole point of Opera Mini. Accessibility.

Sucks on my flip top phone. It slows and doesn’t look very good at all on my screen. Only good for all those iPhone rips. I’m going back to the old version.

Same thing here on my Storm 9500.. highly annoying! They should at least ASK before making themselves the default!

You can’t yet (Luis also confirmed that). The strange thing is that when hitting links it invokes it automatically…

Does anyone here use TwiXtreme? I installed Opera and TwiXtreme disappeared from my Home screen. I hated Opera, uninstalled it and had to reboot so it wouldn’t be the default browser anymore. Then TwiXtreme reappeared, but it isn’t working anymore. It launches, the bird chirps for a few seconds then TwiXtreme crashes. No error messages, it just shuts down abruptly. I installed it again, over the same installation, and the problem remained. I unsintalled it, rebooted, installed it back and the problem remains. I think that Opera ruined my TwiXtreme.

If you’re reading this, don’t install Opera. It sucks. It’s slow, the interface looks good but feels awful, obvious choices of form over function, many sites didn’t open. A mess.

All you have to do is put your cursor on the address bar and push and hold your trackball then the options for cut, copy and paste are right there.

I noticed the same thing on my Tour (OS v4.7.1.40). I uninstalled it as it is a pain to launch OTA installers!

New version is as crappy and slow as the old. Still does not allow pasting a url in address bar (in the old version at least I had a workaround – using insert symbol – which is now gone.

Btw, 1-key speed dial existed in the old version too.

That’s because it’s a Beta, the final 5 will overwrite 4.

I am noticing the same thing. When I click on a link in ubertwitter it takes me to Opera. This may be nice for some users but I am on a BES and if I need to use MDS services I am hosed. I like the ability but give us the option for the replacement.

FWIW, I changed the font size from small to medium and that seemed to help.

The mouse movement is annoying. It skips based on a grid. I had a checkbox I needed to check but couldn’t hit because the mouse kept skipping over it because the pointer would never land on it.

I don’t get an images to load. Not from the Opera page or BBC. Am I missing something? I checked the settings and images should be loading, yet they are not

While it cant be set as the default browser in the configuration settings, anytime you click a link in email or any app it brings up a menu with “open in opera mini” as the only option for the browser.

Best feature by far!

Where the hell is the RSS feature? That’s a dealbreaker for me, because I rarely visit sites unless I know they’ve been updated. What’s weird is that it has the “Add RSS” link option, but no way to actually read them. I’m assuming this will be added on in the final release.
