Opera beta installation over old one, how? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Does anyone know how to install the beta opera browser over the old one? I want to be able to access it from the 3D menu, and have the accelerrometer, and the touch wheel interact with it in the same way it does with the old opera.
Thanks.

opera

on diamond is installed opera we know and in tf3dthe default browser is opera.
now i've downloaded opera 9.51beta. it works well but in tf3d the old browser still remain. is there a possibility to substitute or delete old opera v.1184 with the new one?
sorry for my question in "orrible english".
Actually i've been wondering the same thing, will Opera on diamond ever get an update because i know some rendering problems exist in 9.5 op diamond, that are fixed in the new beta.
Same goes for google maps, will it ever get updated?
sorry no way?
there's no way to do that possible? make new opera beta default in tf3d?

The problem lies in the fact that the default opera is installed in the windows folder, and thenew one from the opera site in program files.
what you need to do is copy all the files from the folder "opera 9.5" in program files to the windows folder, overwrite the old files and you,,re ready.

Logmein with opera browser?

Hi, does anybody with ROM 1.93 has the same problem? Whenever I try to take over my desktop PC with my Diamond, I get the message to install a .cab first. Then I install it, after that I keep getting the message that I need to install it! Whenever I try in IE, it works fine. But I really want to use my Opera browser...
Does anyone know how (or if) I can fix this?
Thanks!!
i have the same problem, its why i still have PIE installed.
I get problems too if i use any keyboard other than the WM default keyboard (you know the one with the tiny buttons)
Oh well...I guess the new Opera version is where the problem lies.
I'll have to use IE then. Lets hope the next Opera version solves the problem...

skyfire on diamond

today i read a news about a new upcoming browser named skyfire.
and what i am asking me: when the open beta comes to my country and i install it on my diamond... can i change the default browser für touchflo3d?
here is a version i tried using. only half the screen is skyfire and the other half is today screen. check it out. maybe it works for you.
Skyfire is a pretty good web browser for mobile phones. It was apparently found to be the fastest - mostly because it renders the pages from a central server.
I believe you have to register with them to fully use the software (you need a Skyfire account).
Also, there is a new release, but it still does not support VGA devices yet.

yes but can i change the default browser in touch flo 3d?
maybe in some time no one wants to use opera and all want to use skyfire.
seemts that its just a simple shortcut to change.
Skyfire is not compatible to VGA right now.
I tried out Skyfire on my diamond and there is a workaround the half screen problem. Other than the fact that flash works, i don't think it is better than Opera 9.5 at least not until a VGA version comes out.
I uninstalled Skyfire and now I have the problem where PIE is now my default browser instead of Opera. Whenever I tap on a link on my rss reader or email, it goes to PIE by default. Is there a way to change my default browser back to opera?
Just Re-run the WM_6_HTC_PPC_Opera9.cab in your windows directory, and it will re-install Opera and fix the link issues. Your bookmarks, history and other browsing data will not be harmed.
Skyfire 0.85 is out, with VGA support. Just tried it and it works like a dream on my Diamond, even able to watch top gear on iPlayer with it.
Hi,
Installed on my MDA Compact and it works well. However, it won't connect using wifi.
Any solutions?
Regards

I just downloaded it too and mananged to get a video playing from the iPlayer but I don't get any sound. Did you have any issues with sound at all?
(I'm on Dutty's V3.2 ROM)
To answer another question the latest version works on VGA but allegedly not on WVGA so Touch HD users may be disappointed. You can download it here http://get.skyfire.com/ and yes, Skyfire asks you if you want to make it the default browser.

Maybe... but uninstalling it even when it's not default resets your default browser to PIE. Which sucks.
i cannot download it,has anybody have vga cab?
Just open http://get.skyfire.com/ in your mobile browser, you'll get to download the cab directly from the phone!
i have opened it 100 times but i cant download,it always get me back to getskyfire.com.
i am not in usa,i am in europe,can somebody please post/upload cab???
Yes, here u go....

This is because unlike PIE/Opera Mobile, skyfire downloads the webpage on a regular pc, then sends you "an image" of the website, in a low quality.
So it's not actually that fast, zooming and panning are weak on it.

or can i get flash in opera?
You can get flash in opera mobile
Check the developments and hacking forum on XDA, it's near the top.
Look for Adobe Flash Lite 3.1 and a compatible Opera build =]

Change the Launch Browser link

Hello all, I have installed the latest beta of Opera 9.7 but I also removed the standard installed version too (following a how to on these forums) as I was annoyed that the old version of the browser would launch when I hit the Manila Internet button.
This Launch Browser button no longer works. I know it points to /Windows/Opera9-ml.exe but I cannot find where this is set........
I tried using the Manila re-mapper but with not much success
I also tried to move the software using SKTools but it will only allow a move into a folder...
any suggestions please

Opera Mini Questions

I really like the new Opera Mini, its a Java Application so I am not real familiar with how it works. I was wondering:
1. Can I set it up as my default browser?
2. When I flip the screen to landscape, the bottom menu buttons from WM show up and they won't go away until I shut the program down...It also is very buggy. Is there a good version available for the Raphael?
Wish it had Flash, but so far Skyfire is the only option right? Skyfire has such poor resolution...
