Re
Do you've got flash lite or flash 7 installed. Its a big difference. You should install flash 7 for example. I've got it hosted on mij site for a direct download:
http://www.htcdriver.com/ in tools, under the download section....
beware that the flast 7 is very hungry, it will draw plenty of processing power.
I have Opera Mobile 8.65 isnatlled with the Adobe Flash PLayer 7 Plug-in installed. When i go to websites with embeded flash, it says i must get the adobe flash player.
Is there something i am missing?
Thanks in advance for any and all help.
Hey,
On this diamonds version of opera mobile, does anyone have any idea how to install (configure?) flash for pocket pc?
I've installed the adobe cab, but opera doesn't pick it up.
cheers,

At some point, I lost the ability to download files on PIE. If I click on a link, it just opens up a page of the same size as the download that contains text that I do not undertsand.
There is no download option in the menu, or if I "right click". This problem was present when I was running the o2 official WM6 ROM, and has persisted when I installed the official o2 WM 6.1 ROM. I know that I had the ability to download before. Any ideas?
Oh, I also want a bit of freeware that will allow me to password protect Word files. I don't need encryption or SD encryption, just password. Any suggestions would be welcome.
I am using stock rom that has Flash lite 2.1 and Opera 9.5 1660. I wonder if install the new Opera 9.5 1938 will over write the one from the stock rom.
also do the scroll wheel works on the new Opera?
Scroll wheel works here with 1938. But flash just doesn't do it for me, my whole device starts acting real slow when trying to watch a youtube video. The youtube player is good enough for me.
works here, but the processor get tired quick.
I can see on the data reception bar of the video that I'm in advance in terms of receiving datas, but the phone takes a lot of time to read and display the video...
It's laggy, but sometimes it's still bearable. Can play on google video and youtube. Works better on google.
thank you both, does it means I only need to install opera 9.5 1938 and flash lite 3.1 on top of the original ones? (the original one can't be uninstall)
I'm afraid this is the only way you can do if flash light 2.1 was already included in your ROM.
I just reflashed my device with a WWE version (previously I was using a French official one, without flashlight 2.1) and I noticed that flashlight is already in the WWE ROMS...
I just did the same, but I haven't tested out to see whether or not it still works this way.
I have a stock rom, with Opera 9.5 in the rom. I downloaded the new Opera 9.5 1938 cab,

http://www.4shared.com/file/59303458...ified=6e3eb675
but it won't install DIRECTLY. A message dialog said the old version needed to be uninstalled first, should I click "OK"?
or should I download another cab,

I want to upgrade my opera buils too, do I need to overwrite the files I already have?
I downloaded the 1938 upgrade... but it's not a .cab ... just 3 files.
does anyone know? can't seem to find it anywhere.
I am absolutely shocked that there are no clear instructions on this matter. Sure we have a dozen user guides on how to get flash lite 3 working on the likes of Kaiser etc, but what about the HTC Diamond?
I have Opera vers. 1780 and alphazero ROM v2 and Flash 3.1 works Ok on my Diamond, it download and play the video without bugs, its delay something until the play starts, but the same can happens in some old PC browsers...!!!
My problems are:
- It does not recognize and play .swf files
- the scroll problem occur only when i touch the video area, otherwise it works
- the keyboard appears always by touching the video area, it's annoying

If you have already Opera on your phone, you just need to overwrite the Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe and the third file opera.ini, but the last is not important at all.

thanks for the quick response, but when I try to paste the files in the windows directory it asks if I want to replace the old files... I choose yes... and then it says the files are write protected or in use...
what am I missing? opera isn't running.

Sorry i forgot to tell you that you may use total commander or Resco Explorer 7 or higher to overwrite the ROM original files.
I overwrite the Opera file under \Windows and it works great. Thank you all.
UPDATE: Opera works great but NOT flash lite 3.1. On Youtube page, it only shows a white area at where the video box suppose to be. Anybody know why? :<
sorry to keep bugging you but I installed total commander and even that says: "cannot copy or move file!"
is there a setting somewhere inside total commander that I'm not seeing which will allow me to overwrite romfile's?
just rename the original files (e.g. Opera9.exe -> Opera9_original.exe) and then move the 1938 files to the windows directory. after that restart...
I got the rename and overwrite part ok for Opera 9.5 1938 but youtube still won't show video control after install Flashlite 3.1 on top of 2.1 (the one from stock rom)
1) Use a process manager to shut down anything Opera related. Usually two files.
2) Copy over the new opera files to the Windows directory. You may need to rename the old ones with .OLD
3) Install Flash Lite 3.1 cab, it has to be installed in the same place as Opera.
4) Restart the phone.
5) Delete your .OLD files
6) Start Opera - all should work on YouTube if that's where you go but it is patchy at best and a lot slower than using the YouTube client for example. It doesn't work on the BBC site for example.

worksssss...... thanks!
It's not great though, I only use it for links on site's to youtube clips and then don't zoom in (because the keyboard will pop up) and hold my finger on the clip to select fullscreen. that works with the least hickups and other annoyances.
It does landscape and normal view in fullscreen btw (both with progress bar)
PS. I have the original dutch 1.93 ROM With Opera 9.5 1938 build.
Hello! I appreciate very much what this comunity does for all of the pocket pc owners out there. That being said, could someone please post a how-to on upgradin Opera 9.5 without upgrading the firmware, please? I've searched the forum but people seem not to want to answer to this question. Maybe it's an idiotic question.. When i try to upgrade mine it says that it cannot remive the previous version, and when i press yes on wanting to continue at the end it says installation not successful! Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Hmm... Doesn't anyone know this? 75 people read this and no one? I find this very strange. I hoped that other people were having this question. Thank you!
If you just want to upgrade, uninstall the old version if you are able and install the latest cab or find an upgrade version. If you can't uninstall, just install the new version overtop of the old. If you install over top make sure you are launching the proper executable. You can check your version by going to help, about Opera, and look for your build version at the top.That's it!
Next time try doing a little more reading, the answer is out there!!!!!
To Upgrade the Stock Version of Opera on a Diamond
Hi. It's unusual that somebody hasn't posted these complete steps before. So here we go:
To upgrade the stock version of Opera on a Diamond without flashing a new ROM
1. Go to the Opera thread here. Don't bother trying to install the official (non-Diamond) beta of Opera as it's more trouble than it's worth. Use the official Diamond Opera betas in the link here. You also should not try to uninstall the Opera version you already have on your Diamond
2. Download the Diamond Opera version that you would like. Choose the Upgrade zip package, not the Full Install package
3. Open the downloaded zip file and extract the three files (Opera9.exe, OperaL.exe, OperaPreL.exe)
4. Transfer these to a folder on your Diamond. eg "New Build"
5. Make a backup of the original Opera9.exe, OperaL.exe and OperaPreL.exe that is in the Windows folder of your Diamond. This is in the event that the new Opera build doesn't work as expected and you want to go back to the previous version
6. Use Resco File Explorer or similar to copy and paste the three files from the "New Build" folder to the Windows folder on your device. This will overwrite the old Opera files with the new ones. You can't use the standard WM6 File Explorer to do this as it won't let you overwrite the old files
7. Reset
8. The new build of Opera is now installed. Before you do anything else, return to the Windows folder on your Diamond and locate the "ghost images" of the older Opera build that are left behind (these have filenames along the lines of Opera9.exe.$7 and OperaL.exe.$22 or similar; make sure you don't try to delete the newer Opera9.exe and OperaL.exe files!) Deleting these unnecessary "ghost images" will free up lots of space.
For the record, I'm currently using build 1938 of Opera (extracted from a newer Diamond ROM). I don't recommend using the newest 2128 build as it comes with lots of issues such as excessive boot time, problems loading TouchFlo 3D favourites, etc. I think this new build is only designed to work alongside a newer version of TouchFlo 3d. The 1938 build works great for me though. Very quick, no issues. Still waiting for them to improve the Favourites list in Opera itself; it's a shambles.
Hope that helps
Dave
thank you
Now this is what a call a very good walktrough! Thank you for your help! I installed the version you sugested and it works perfectly! I guess it's quite easy when you know what to do.
+1 Thank you for this clear explanation.
Ciao
Fred
Thanks for the brilliant guide, I tried a cab upgrade earlier and killed opera completely (had to restore my sprite backup from the morning).
I'll give this a go
THANK you for the VERY clear and well written set of instructions on this, I just got my Diamond (US Unlocked Version) today, and you saved me a lot of headaches!
i upgraded to opera 9.5.2745
just run the .cab and it was done without any problems...
but the icons turn out really small after the install.. other than that, everything works great?
got my opera from this link (not sure if external links are allowed, pls remove if its not!)

You might have a QVGA version. This thread has links to both VGA and QVGA versions, but there is apparently a problem with the VGA version posted:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442252
See post #115 of the thread, someone has helpfully posted instruction on how to get the QVGA version working in VGA. Simply replace the skin file and the loading image (png file) and edit your opera.ini file with new zoom settings.
