Opera mobile weird fonts - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've got this weird thing lately while using opera mobile. Not all the characters on the webpages I visit are displaying correctly ...
It's like every first character of a paragraph or title is displayed with a smaller sized font..
Anyone had this?
I'm on stunner 5.0 ICS.

Here too.
Numbers are too big,uppercase characters slim and small. Starts this week.

Had it too, first time last year but also recently. The fix posted was to change the system font to something like helvetica which worked for me.

Should I understand,that it has something to do with system font? I'll try to change it.
Edit: problem solved. I have changed the system font from Default to Helvetica. Thanks lot.

Opera "Black-Hole" problem?

Am I the only one with this? I tried searching for a solution but no luck so far...
When I am browsing websites with the Opera browser (_every_ version I tested so far) after some time the page doesn't get displayed entirely anymore and the missing parts simply remain black. This ends up in the entire website view becoming black.
To me this looks a lot like a memory issue. Anyone else having this kind of problem?
Cheers,
Alex
You're not alone. I have the same Issue but I mentioned it at only one site. Maybe Opera has some problems with some plugins on that sites.
Having the same problem here, but so far it happened only on the accuweather site... not that i'm browsing very often but that site is the only one that caused the same problem... no idea why though

Yes, I have the same problem with the Accuweather site. I haven't seen it on any other sites, yet.
i had the same problem today on the bbc website.
I think it might be an issue with frames. There are scrollbars on the bottom of the visible part of the website but only for a second or so while the site renders. They disappear after opera is finished rendering the site. A site that does this is www.studivz.de (very popular social networking site in germany) but only when logged in. Another problem I have is that some sites (php) I can only scroll the site halfway after I zoomed in. After zooming out, the problem is still there however.
I second that with StudiVZ...
As for PHP I don't believe that's the relevant factor - since that only determines the HTML generation - not the resulting HTML code sent to the browser afterwards. So what I am saying is that you most likely could reproduce the same problem with _any_ language by simply sending the same HTML...

Didn't know that, thanks!
Good news everyone...
I just tried out Build 1938 of Opera 9.5 and did not encounter the "black holes" anymore.
I used the "upgrade" version from the thread below. Rename the files in /windows/ otherwise they can't be overwritten. Then copy the files from the downloaded .zip file:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2321466&postcount=1
Only tried studivz.net hope this fixes other sites, too.
Unfortunately this build doesn`t change any think in black hole ... if you want to see just go to www.onet.pl
Unfortunately it doesn`t change anything in "Black Hole" :/ Try www.onet.pl still a lot of black holes on my device :/

I hate to disappoint you but I tried the website, zoomed, panned etc. around a couple of times and encountered no black holes. I am using dutty's 1.6 ROM. Are you sure, you installed the upgrade correctly? In Opera look under help->about opera->(scroll up) if it displays Build 1938. Also remember to soft reset the phone after the upgrade.
regards.
I can confirm that build 1938 solved all my black hole problems, too.
i`m using oryginal 1.93 ROM not cooked maybe this is problem ? Did you upgraded or instal again ?
Updated: Hmmm strange now it works ;D But i have a question to U ... Do you know how to delete these old files ? that i`ve changed the name ... because windows says you cannot delete these files but one of them is 6 Mb so you know that is a lot of free space

Hi. I deleted the files using file explorer running on the diamond itself, not with pc through usb. If this does not work, try using a different file explorer like total commander (free) or resco explorer (trial and buy but much better).

Opera dying
Hi guys,
I flashed my Diamond with Swiftblade's latest which had the new version of Opera on it. But whenever I visit any site such as ebay, natwest or paypal and click on a button, opera dies. It worked fine on IE before I upgraded.
Just wondered if anyone has had a similar problem or knows a fix?!
Can't use the browser at all for now and I don't want to go back to the original ugly T-mobile ROM
Cheers guys!

[Q] SMS only 70 characters?

When im typing sms it splits messages at 70 characters. I use only english letters, so no special characters. There is no option for changing encoding... does anyone have solution for this?
it seems that capital letters are responible for that...
Using the graphical smileys often seems to be the root cause for that problem. What keyboard language are you using? Perhaps that keyboard layout uses letters that are rendered similar to the ASCII ones but they actually are different unicode characters (e.g. kyrillic).

US keyboard, and no smileys... i'v wrote 2 same messages, one with all small letters (everything ok, 160 char.) and one normal (this is when it splits messages at 70 char.).
"In this case it splits messages at 70 char. And im going crazy!"
"in this case everything is just fine. all 160 char can be used for sms."
Is there any solution how to fix this problem to use all standard characters and have 160 characters?

Check with your network provider- in some cases your provider will restrict the lenght of SMS/text msgs.

provider is not problem here. i have just call them. its the phone... :/
I noticed too that the number of character was small and I think that it's because of capital letter being rendered by using some special ascii-like character which takes way more than one character. But since we all have unlimited texts in my country, I don't really give a ef about it. But I just wanted to let you know that you're definately not alone.
Using the French and the English (US) keyboard.
Sounds like something is causing the phone to want to switch the encoding to Unicode. What are your regional settings?
Also, do you have the Nokia-specific Network+ setting? What is the SMS charset set to?

Question about the keyboard

I have tried other keyboards and the stock keyboard it seems it varies on rom i use. Every word i type in text shows up underlined in red like its a typo but its obviously not seeing as i know how to spell words like fun and goodbye etc. Any advice from anyone how to fix this ?
Just wondering.... Can you check if your phone's defaults language "English"

Text entry issue with 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 update.

Has anyone noticed that since HTC removed and replaced the phone pad and XT9 when you go to choose one single letter when typing then go to choose another single letter, it automatically adds a space in between the letters now?
Example: e y
I can't find a setting for auto spacing anywhere either. Do you think it's an error in the way they took it out then replaced it? I've never had this issue before the update.
I'm including an annotated screenshot of this page to help explain a little better what I mean.

Hey man, I am having the exact same issue as you... It's fine for people who use QWERTY keyboard as you select each individual letter yourself... Where as when you use the phone keypad you have to select them with the prediction, of course it then thinks you've entered a word and adds the space... If anyone knows a fix for this that'd be great!! I am even willing to try and edit the HTC_IME if someone can tell me where this setting might be stored.
I am also running into HTCs famous dictionary losing words like "am" "go" "in" etc... Yes it took me a hell of a long time to type this message on my phone...

[Q] 'Fi' changes to "u" in B609

I've noticed a freaky behaviour in the B609: all occurrences of seqence of letters "fi" are changed to a bolded 'u' (in facebook/chrome/other apps). I'm assuming it's suppossed to represend greek letter phi, but I have no idea why would anyone want that functionality all over their phone. Has anyone else noticed it and found a way to fix it?
No problem here. Maybe it's your keyboard?

Doubt it - it's not altering just the things I write: if a friend posts a comment on facebook, say "finally" it looks like this: "unally"...
