I just installed Opera Mobile 9.7 beta. When I start Opera, it brings a small white square on square then it freezes. I need to take out battery to reboot my phone.
I have uninstalled and installed again two time, but same result. Any idea what can I do ? I googled around, didn't find any solution, in fact not many people had same problem.
Any way to debug, what's happening in my phone. Other s/w runs fine without any problem.
Use a different version.
Try install it online, i.e., connect to the innternet first before install it & the first time launch it.
I had the same issue. I just had to use Opera 9.5
I guess, I will just wait for next beta ore release.
You need to install openGL drivers in order for it to work. Here is the link.
Thanks. That un-froze opera and is running now. Thanks

I like Iris because of the status bar. It tells, when host is resolved, request is sent, received reply etc ... You know what's wrong. I use Wifi alot (I do not have unlimited data plan) and have to switch between proxy wifi and non-proxy wifi. Other browser do not give any indication.
I like opera-mini for speed.
I do not use skyfire as I am not able to make it work on work n/w via proxy.
Haven't tried UCweb.

Try Iris also. It's free.
tried everything in this thread (used v3 of OpenGL), but nothing works. I'm still getting freezes when I start Opera Mobile 9.7. The first time I start after switching my phone (HTC TD) on it works fine. If I then close it down and then restart later on, it freezes. Soft Resest... and it works again...
any ideas?

What have your experiences been using facebook on the diamond/Opera9? For me (on a T Mobile connection) it kind of works but kind of doesnt.
It renders the pages fine, but I find I have to log in multiple times and I cannot accept friend requests or view larger pictures from thumbnails.
Theres no excuse in the world as to why Facebook should work better with an iPhone. Especially considering how Facebook was one of the pre installed favourites on the stock Diamond ROM.
iPhones use iphone.facebook.com which is like a compromise between m.facebook.com (the really cut down mobile version) and the full site.
But yes, I would like the normal facebook page to work properly.

well after a soft reset i have an issue when i log into facebook using my orange (HSDPA) connection, it loads it all wrong in a very very basic form bit like mobile version, but if i go to facebook via wi-fi it loads fine, AND also then loads fine via HSDPA until i do a soft reset again... i was assuming this was an issue with my Orange provider TBH which seems to be fixed after i load the full page once via wi-fi....

Ok so I guess I didn't test it enough
Anyway, it is a shame that all major websites seem to have their iphone version but couldn't care less about the rest of us.
Would it be so hard to have "advanced mobile" versions that everyone could use?

This is what I dont understand - as the Diamond as a higher quality, higher resolution screen to the iphone. Its as if no one makes an effort with windows mobile anymore, yet will go out of their way to accomodate the iphone

Try and go into a picture and view it full screen. Do you get a clear full screen picture?
Also try and send messages via facebook or make/respond to friend requests. Does this work?
I am aware Opera renders the page perfectly, but Facebook doesnt seem to function well at all.
This is a UK question. As iplayer might not work in other countries.

Has anyone got the bbc iplayer to play the video? All I get is a green box, the audio plays ok.
I have tried a hard reset but its still the same. I'm using Flash 10.1 from the Android market.

This is most strange. Can we have a poll on who has iPlayer working on their Nexus S and what updates you have done Eg. 2.3.0 installed flash then updated to 2.3.1
My phone was updated to 2.3.1 the moment I first turned it on
me too! green screen,sound ok running 2.3.1 Flash installed.

I take it you have done the 2.3.1 update? I am trying to work out if it's the update which the Flash Player doesn't like.
Same issue as well. Nothing but a green screen on iplayer and even a few YouTube videos.
Android 2.3.1 and Flash player 10.1 installed from market.

There is a fix for the iplayer Thanks to ryude, sporran and others for this:
Go to google.com and in the URL bar, type; about:debug then hit go.
Not much happens but press menu button/more scroll to bottom, hit settings and scroll to bottom, you should have some extra settings, tick the box at Normal Rendering and click on UAString ,choose Desktop. Exit and that's it. BBC Iplayer will now play without a green screen.

thanks it plays but with unacceptable quality - too many pauses (resolution too high?) and not fitting the screen well.
while with the android UAString, the screen loooked nicely formatted
I guess we'll need to wait for a fix

The fix has arrived - today's flash player update solves the issue.
it works great!! super fast
download: www.opera.com/mobile/download/versions/
choose Opera Mobile 11 -- android 1.6+
It is fast and damn smooth on sites like xda. Couldn't find how to turn flash on though. Like the "quick dial" bookmarks. Thanks for the heads up on this.
Flash is working for me on cnn.com

flash is working on me sites like teamcoco.com CNN.com etc! 10.2 version

I tried this one last night and couldn't keep it because I just couldn't scroll with it, even after a calibration fix (on tnt lite 4.2.5) so I'm back to using dolphin.
I tried firefox as well and I liked it at first, but I started missing little things from dolphin like the new long press feature, so I went back again.

Dolphin HD and mini feel choppy compared to Opera. HD can't paste in text boxes, and is quite ugly. Mini can't select text. HD has best text selection.
Never tried firefox cause I can't see it in the market.
Opera has some slight rendering issues on some web sites, but not enough to break them. It looks very good too.
So far, I like Opera best.
Hi,
I'm running the latest CM7 with my Optimus 2X, and is using the stock browser. I am having problem with dropdown menus in the browser, especially with my airliners site, www.sas.se. As you see in the image below, all dropdown menus look really funny. I have also tried Dolphin browser, Firefox and I think one more, but they all look the same. Is it the website that is badly coded, or is it a general Android issue? As it is right now, it is impossible to choose anything in any dropdown menus because they don't respond to clicks.
Can anyone check if they have the same problem? Anyone who has a solution?
Thank you in advance,
I am able to select items from the drop down menus on that site with no problems.
Stock rom with Dolphin browser. Can't help you with a fix though. Sorry.

Good find! Dropdowns work with Firefox!
But...... Nothing else on that specific site... It won't autocomplete the cities when writing, and it won't (sometimes) show the calendar so it is impossible to change days, which means the ordering system fails...
Thank you for the inputs, everyone!

Hi,
I already tried Opera, but with the same issues.
I'm struggling to get FarmVille2 working on the new Nexus 7 i bought for my good lady
Am i right in thinking that FB is detecting the device type as 'Tablet' and this is why it is forcing load of the FarmVille Express version, rather than the full game ?
If so, is there an easy way to change the device type to 'PC' or whatever to make it work ?
I remember that in order to get BBC iPlayer working on the HD2, it was a similar scenario, but involved an easy reg change, but guess this is different
Any help please ?
Many thanks

In browser, I presume?
In Chrome, you can click menu, then 'request desktop site'
In Firefox, you can download an addon 'Phoney' (I think this is what it's called), and set it to desktop.
I really don't know about other browsers.

I guess it will have to be FF Beta then ?
OK, update;
Can't get this working with FF Beta, Dolphin 8.5.1 nor Opera (Using Flash 11.1)
The closest i get is the game starts loading (with sound playing) but gets stuck at about half way. This is using FireFox Beta
Does anyone know of a definite way to get FV2 working on the N7, or have any other suggestion ? Perhaps a different browser/version of Flash ?
Many thanks

HTML STANDARDS cross platform compatility ISSUE
I think this is a similar issue as with Pogo games... My Better half would Love to play her Pogo games on her Android tablet.. I have tried nearly everything.. Even went thru talking to them on the pogo forums.. The bottom line is They do NOT SUPPORT the Android Flash/JAVA run time players.. Check some other flash game sites made for windows machines. You will see the same issue. This is one of the reasons there needs to be a HTML Standard for VIDEO/Animation on the net..
I would say your best best at this point is to go to Facebook support and see if there is any documentation about this.There could be a solution now.Its been many months since i tried doing exactly what you want.There was no solution at that time and no work being done to make it happen in sight..
My thoughts are until there is a True HTML Standard that all browsers and browser content MUST Comply with . We will have this type of issues. HTML 5 And then now 6 is supposed to be the issue.. People keep holding on to what they are using now. They do this to save dev. dollars. Until all back word compatibility in browsers are broken there will be NO True standard for cross platform games in a browser environment.
If you do find a solution Please let us all know..
Good Luck
Erica Renee ..
