Opera Mini or Opera Mobile --- Help?

Hi all,
I love surfing on my N series (N82) nokia, but the native browser is horrible. i am not a fan of apple products at all but I must admit the safari browser is very cool. I have heard Opera ia a better choice for a browser on my N series. Great. I'm just not sure to download Opera Mini or Opera Mobile for the N82. Or what is the difference? should I buy the mobile version or use free mini version.
anyone got any quick advice or suggestions...
Thanks alot

Solved!

Mini is a simpler version of Mobile.
You have to pay for Opera Mobile, so it comes with more features.
I'm not sure if it offers a huge increase in performance or experience over Mini.
I have an N82 and use Mini. It's fantastic!
I had a friend recently comment "wow, your's is the first mobile that actually made me feel like i was online, and not using a phone."

Wi-fi won't work with either Opera Mini 5 or Mobil...

This has been driving me nuts. My phone connects to wi-fi networks just fine, and wi-fi works fine with the Nokia browser. But I cannot get either Opera Mini 5.1 or Opera Mobile 10 to do it. I set my access points to "always ask", and then select the wi-fi network when the browser asks.
Opera does however work fine going through the cell phone network.
I have tried reinstalling, and also searched through all the phone settings. Same problem regardless of what I try.
The error message is:
"Connection Failed
Content blocked by operator"
What does that mean "operator". Just exactly WHO is the Operator??? It can't be the wireless network, because no wireless network works with Opera--period. Could it be the cell phone company? If so, why would they allow me to use Opera on the cell network but not allow it on wi-fi?
So I called my provider (a small company recently bought by AT&T, but still operating separately). They told me they are not blocking wi-fi on third-party browsers, and it's probably a issue with the Opera software.
I hope someone here can shed some light on this.
Symbian S60 5th ed., Nokia 5530XM, firmware up-to-date

Well I can get it to work by doing this sequence:
1. Use the wi-fi tool to connect to the network
2. Open the Nokia browser, select the wi-fi network, and browse to a web page.
3. Close the Nokia browser.
4. Open Opera and select the wi-fi network.
5. Browse ...
This method has worked over the past day. I discovered it by accident.
Isn't there someone who can explain why I have to go through this process to use Opera with wi-fi on my 5530XM ?

Muse/business catalyst: opera mini / opera mobile gets stuck in desktop view

After visiting a muse site and switching to desktop view, Opera Mini continues to serve it up even when reverting the original URL:
1. Create a site site.com with a mobile and desktop view.
2. Provide link to get from mobile to desktop.
3. Open site with opera mini. The mobile view loads.
4. Click the link to get to the desktop view. Muse redirects to something like site.com/phone/index.html?devicelock=phone
5. Put in the URL for the original site, eg. site.com.
6. Now, when you go to site.com, the URL resolves to the desktop site. Incorrectly.
7. Try clearing the history and cache in opera mini -> same result.
8. Go to explicit link to phone site. Then go back to base URL site.com. Still resolves incorrectly to desktop site.
It appears Muse is not supporting opera mini / mobile responsively, please advise.

That's not quite correct. Please see step #8 above. Even if I follow a "go to phone site" link with a "devicelock=phone" parameter, it may take me to the phone site, but default navigation remains stuck on desktop, when I put in the site URL. If your understanding of the design is what you described, then the actual behavior is not in alignment. I would appreciate you passing that on to the engineers.
Even with the design you describe, there is a problem considering the following use case:
1. User views phone site on their flip phone.
2. User attempts to load desktop site. Site loads, but is not viewable on mobile device.
3. User wants to revert to phone site and does not have ability to click a link, so they go back to the referring page or e-mail which contains ... the original site URL.
After the user clicks desktop link, the site is lost to them, unless they can figure out how to (and agree to) kill all their cookies.

Opera Mini problem with E72

Hi all..
This is my first post here.
I can't use Opera mini web browser at all! It loads and finally throws up the following error:
"Failed to connect to the Internet."
It's frustrating coz I was (am) able to use Opera mini without any glitch on N73..
Thanks,
Cheers!

hi every one,
I have the same issue too, both with opera mini and opera 10. Not able to connect using wifi connects.
I have already updated the nokia software to 051.18
what I think the main issue is related with JAVA. As I am also not able to connect / use other JAVA related applications as well on my set. Like ebuddy, nokia chat and mobi cast (cricinfo mobile application ).
The error msg when I try to connect with ebuddy: "Your internet settings must be activated for JAVA APPLICATION or try again later". This is the default error msg which comes again n again every time.
I did chk the java setting ---> Menu --> Internet ----> Web ---> Options ---> Settings ----> General ---->
Is there a solution for this? Can some one help me to sort out this issue? Please.
all the best,
junaid

5800 XM - Opera Mini vs Mobile

I used both Opera Mobile 10 beta and Opera Mini 5 beta in 5800 XM.
Opera Mobile crashed very frequently requiring restart of the phone!
Opera Mini is much better. I also see apparently no difference between Mini & Mobile version!
So, I am now settled with Opera Mini.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I had the same crashing issue with the beta of Opera Mobile. i was getting a message saying my phone memory was full even though i had over 70MB of RAM free.
I read elsewhere on this forum to load Opera Mobile, go to the address bar and enter
opera:config
You can then go in and change the default memory from 4096 to 2048. Since I did this, it's worked great and I've now uninstalled Opera mini.
If my post has helped you in anyway, please press the 'kudos' button.
Thanks

Torch 9800 - Mobile Data and BIS not activated - Mail & Browse fail, Opera Mini is slow and MSN and Yahoo go in timeout

I have a BB Torch 9800 with OS 6.0 Bundle 2534
I had a contract with the Mobile Operator including the Data Package and everything was working fine, I have access to the mail through BIS, MSN Messenger and Yahoo Messenger was working Ok, as far as Whatsup. Also the Browser was working Ok.
When I was on roaming I have settled “Roaming Off” in “Mobile Network Options” to just use Internet over Wi-Fi when I was under the Wi-Fi coverage.
Then I’ve decided to migrate the contract to “Recharchable” and also decided to dismiss the Data Packet because of cost limitations. Now I have BIS in “not connected” state.
Problem now is that I cannot get the apps working when connected to any Wi-Fi AP.
Mail is not working. MSN & Yahoo returns the message “Unable to find the requested server” when attempting to login. The Browse is also not working and only Opera Mini seems to work but it takes several minutes to build a page.
I’ve also tried to ping the AP and it rarely succeed, sometimes all attempts are failing, sometimes one attempt succeed.
It seems to my eyes that there is a terribly big delay and some applications (except mail and browse that shows not to work) go in timeout with the message previously described.
I’m not sure whether BIS access or no access is influencing the BB behavior with a Wi-Fi connection and making dramatically slower.
The BB connects at Layer 1 with the AP because I can see the BB MAC address at the AP’s menu. I’ve tried also with DHCP Client and Manual IP configuration, no way.
I’ve found at http://forums.crackberry.com/general-blackberry-discussion-f2/unable-find-requested-server-bb-9330-a... that it could be a bug in the 6.0.
I’ve searched tons of forum postings and it seems no one has the clue of this problem. Unfortunately the Torch 9800 cannot be upgraded to the 7.x. this is really bad as it seems I have purchased a “dead” mobile phone.
Of course I’ve tried with lots a different Aps. I’m a technician and I think I’ve done a proper troubleshooting before to come to this conclusion.
Anyone has an update about this problem or, I have no other chance than throwing away this phone and purchase a nice Samsung Note II hopping not be blocked with another unexpected showstopper.
Thanks in advance.

The only two options available to you are adding BIS to your plan or continue using Opera which works outside of BIS (the BlackBerry browser does not).
Cheers.

Opera Mini Browser Help?

Does anyone use Opera Mini for their browser and if so is it better than stock one that comes with phone.

Browsers are such a matter of personal preference. With that being said, I didn't find Opera Mini to be as good as the default browser, and ended up deleting it from my phone.

Nokia 208 problems with Opera Mini

I have a Nokia 208 (Single SIM) and I can not install Opera Mini on him. The application is downloaded but not installed. When I want to install the application, it shows me: "Installing ..." and remains locked so. And after some time it says: "Unable to connect to the internet. Please chech your settings". I tried several versions of Opera Mini and same problem. I downloaded from Nokia Store and m.opera.com site, etc., and the same problem. Other applications on the phone I saw that it works. And I can surf the internet, the problem is only with Opera Mini. Internet provider is Vodafone Romania. So how can I solve this problem? Or Nokia 208 (Single SIM) is not compatible with Opera Mini? Thanks!

We have several reports of this issue. In one case, it was solved by creating the configuration settings manually which made sure both the Access Point and the Web account are configured correctly. Your description only tells us, the Web configuration is OK.
To solve this issue finally, I would like to go this path again first:
Nokia » Menu » Settings » Configuration » Personal » New » Access Point » Access Point settings » Bearer settings » Mobile data access point (APN) » internet.vodafone.ro
Nokia » Menu » Settings » Configuration » Activate » Access Point » My access point
Did that help?

Nokia X2-00's inbuilt Opera Mini 4.2 won't use cus...

Hi everyone!
I'm from India. I have a Nokia X2-00 (Firmware version 4.90) that I use with an AirTel subscription. I want the phone's inbuilt browser (Opera Mini 4.2) to use the 'Mobile Office' or 'Airtel Internet' access points instead of 'AirTel Live!'.
Here's a list of everything that I've tried doing on the phone to get Opera to work:
[o] Settings -> Configuration -> Default config. sett. -> Airtel
[o] Settings -> Configuration -> Default in all apps.
[o] Settings -> Configuration -> Preferred access pt. -> Mobile Office
And since that didn't work, I created a new access point:
[o] Settings -> Connectivity -> Packet data -> Packet data settings -> Active access point -> Airtel[o] Settings -> Connectivity -> Packet data -> Packet data settings -> Edit active access pt. -> Packet data access pt. -> airtelgprs.com
and...
[o] Settings -> Configuration -> Personal settings -> MY-APN-NAME -> Bearer settings -> Packet data acc. pt -> airtelgprs.com
Still I've had no luck. The inbuilt Opera Mini 4.2 still uses the 'Airtel Live!' access point despite all this.Please suggest some way to get it to use another access point.

@thecybershot- How do you know that the inbuilt opera 4.2 browser uses 'Airtel Live!'?

Nokia 5530: video with opera mini

Hello, I want to make you some questions:
1- How can I watch online videos (like google videos) with opera mini browser?
2- It's possible to set Opera Mini as the defaut browser, instead of Nokia's browser, when you open links?
Thank you

Sorry , but NO and NO. You can use Opera mobile as default browser, but it only opens attachments and links in mail, everything else reverts to native browser. Best way to watch Youtube is to download the YouTube app from Google mobile.
http://www.google.com/mobile/nokia-s60/
Unfortunately Opera does not support Flash. You can use Skyfire to view video, but as a browser it's very laggy !

Opera Mini [Unsolved Problem] - It's getting on ne...

I have a problem installing Opera mini 4.2, Opera mini 5.1 and Opera mini 5.2 on N97 and I have no idea what's the reason. I am able to access all other web pages through "WLan" and "Service provide internet data pakage" but I have no idea about the problem with Opera mini.
Worthy to mention, I am able to run Opera mobile 10 on my mobile. But what exactly is the reason for Opera mini's to remain unconnected ?
"Rresource download failed" is the message I get every time I try to run Opera mini. I have successfully installed Firmware 2.1 and hard reset my phone, bu this problem is still persisting.
Any solution ?

Hi try going into settings-applications-instlalled applications-select Opera mini-options-suite settings-Access point-select what you want to use, Sorted (I hope)
Good Luck
And if my post helped, a tick on the green star would be appreciated
