Wow, I just reinstalled and got the same thing (checking to make sure no Opera process was running first).

Which carrier's HTC Touch Pro do you have?

Did you install to the device or storage card? I know when I installed to the device, I had some issues with the 2 versions conflicting (opening up the ROM version when clicking the new icon, I think).

Edit, even if I install to device, it still opens the new Opera.

Also, can you confirm that the new Opera doesn't change to landscape when you rotate the device (like the ROM Opera does)?

Have you tried to use this

Gyrator 2 – Allows all programs to rotate orientation just by turning the device (similar to the opera default) The cab is below, but check gyrator.brins0.net for the latest version.
[To get rid of the pesky auto-lock feature: Open Gyrator, select Menu, select Events, tap and hold Stylus In (Lock), select Edit Event, under the Stylus tab uncheck all options, under the Actions tab uncheck all options.]

Okay, I got it to work...

First install Gyrator 2, that will fix the auto landscape rotating orientation with the new opera.

Second, download this and use it to replace the TF3D operal.exe with the new path location of the one you install.

I just test it and it worked!!!

I will try that shortly.

I tried Gyrator 2 earlier. It didn't seem to do anything with the default options. Do I have to set anything or should it just work right out of the box?



EDIT: I just uninstalled Gyrator 2 and reinstalled it and it's still not rotating Opera. Is there something I need to set up? Is it supposed to rotate every program? I must be missing something simple here, no?

EDIT 2: Also no luck with the manilla patch program. What exactly did you enter into that patch screen?

I think gyrator 2 has Opera disabled in its settings because it suppose to already rotate so you can go to the options and delete Opere (disabled)

Yes, that was it. I figured it out just before I came back here. Everyone had said just use the default settings. I didn't realize I had to disable the Opera disable.

Now, what if there's a program that's not in the list. How do I disable Gyrator for that program?

Also, still no luck with the manilla patcher. If someone can tell me exactly what they entered to patch to the new Opera, I'd appreciate it.

[lexluthor]

Ok. Got the manilla patcher working. I wasn't clicking save.

I put
/program files/opera 9.5 beta/operal.exe for the file
and
/program files/opera 9.5 beta/ for the working directory.

What about the favorites on the browser tabs? Those are still old opera settings. Nitpicking now I guess

No your not nit picking. I would like an answer to that also.
