That's strange because my Opera is barely functional?? I can't zoom in or out at all using the scroll around the D-pad, clicking browser doesn't take me to my homepage it just takes me to blank, and the bookmarks don't show up in TF3D and they have to be double clicked in Opera to work. Is nobody else having this problem?

Maybe this will be helpful -- here's my approach. First of all, I don't use the "internet" tab, I use "programs" instead, and have Opera set up as one of the nine boxes. In this version of Opera, the zoom is along the right side of the screen, and it works very well. Since the program is very finger friendly, I just use my finger to scroll and zoom. Never touch the d-pad on the phone. My bookmarks are stored under the star, and they work great. Give it a try....

I think I read somewhere that the reason the favs do not show up on the widget is because Opera is not in \Windows\Opera9. I am going to test this today, I've already modified the OEM. I think that may be the cause of the blank page issue too.


OMJ....this version of Opera has started to lock up over the past few days. The only thing to bring it back, is to delete the cache quite often. Per usual, I think there's a newer version out. I've been using your newest rom with the task bar icons, and really like the stability....just like I came to expect from your Touch roms. I was thinking about asking for a "lite" version, but find myself using most of the programs, except the games. Great job, and thanks for the effort.

I didnt get a chance to post last night, but I modified the Opera OEM to install to Windows, cooked, flashed, tested. The favs now show on the Internet widget but I could not get Opera to launch....tried a few things, flashed a few times, but no go.

I noticted Calc had a version 9.5.15202, so I've been testing that....seems to be faster and I'm not having the performance issues I did b4. I'll also check out the 15316 version.

I'll get a updated rom out soon w/ a different version of opera.

yes

With this new ROM will Opera run from the internet tab? I really like your ROM but I really need Opera to work correctly. That's the main reason I bought this phone

in addition to the opera thing, the music player doesn't seem to function correctly on the sprint with icons rom. I reflashed my diamond, but it didn't fix it. It won't let me scroll through the music if you understand what I am saying, just goes to the next song.

Great ROM. I love all the icons, games, & programs installed on here. Only problem I have is that the internet sharing / tether feature will not work. It says check USB cable connection. Any help would be appreciated.

I ok, I tested Opera 9.5 15316 version (thx Calcu)....I'm really liking this version, Internet tab works 100% along w/ the favs, the home page loads not the blank page, links from start/favorites work, and the video sites link from the programs/multimedia folder now work. the only strange thing I found is w/ the zoom....double tap to zoom in, but i cant find a zoom bar....to manually zoom in/out, you have to use the d-pad....which is fine w/ me.

I recooked all 3 roms, i did not change the version #, just rebuilt & uploaded.

I just tested, I play a sing, then hit the up or down arrow & it play the next or previous song.

well it should say check USB cable until you plug in the USB cabel, lol.....I just tested it, worked fine....what OS are u running on your pc?

[OMJ]

I forgot to mention I also changed to a newer version Total Commander....and I also created an FTP connection to the PPCGeeks FTP, if you want to surf the ftp ....if it asks for a password, just press ok, as it does not require a password.

[dgreen1]

I tried to get this to work but it keeps telling me to check USB connection. I am running XP and have not had this problem before. Any Ideas?

OMJ -

Great ROM.

You probably know this, but Microsoft released an updated version of Live Search a few days ago. I didn't know if you plan to include the update in the update in a future ROM?

Thanks.
