Using Opera Mini on Mogul - Page 2

rijc99 · #11 (**permalink**) 07-28-2007, 01:17 AM

1. Open Pocket Internet Explorer from your phone.

2. Go to www.operamini.com

3. Scroll to the bottom

4. Click on Try the new Opera Mini 4 beta

5. Click on Download high memory version

6. Click Yes

7. Click Yes

8. Look at the link I posted above and follow it to install a short cut on your start menu or anywhere else you see fit. (I put it as a quick link on my SPB Mobile Shell)

NO PC IS INVOLVED IN ANY OF THE STEPS... Well, maybe possibly step 8. But still not absolutely necessary since the Mogul comes with a good zip extractor.

Scrolled through Opera's list of phones that are available for the download, and 6800, HTC, Mogul names are not listed. So how/where are y'all seeing the software download for the 6800 on Opera's website? Thanks.

It seemed to me that we can only dL Opera mini from our phone.

Go to the website www.operamini.com on your Mougl; and then click on "Download high memory version."

I was able to download Mini beta to my Mogul, and it works beautifully! Finally....I can see webpages on my cell phone just like being on a PC. Love touching the screen to enlarge the screen view, and also to scroll through enlarged webpage. Thanks to all of you for your help. I greatly appreciated it.

I believe there is an option for your font size: small, medium, large, on the mini opera screen

Once the webpage comes up, I just tap it to enlarge the screen and use my finger to move the page around. The font size is pretty decent when enlarged.

Does anyone know how to make Mini the default browser when I click on a link in my Outlook message? When I click on the link in Outlook, it automatically goes to IE and I hate that.

Also, if Mini can't be dafaulted, is there a way to copy and paste the weblink into Mini ? Thanks.

I have the mini installed but I have not been able to tap the screen and have it zoom and enlarge. Does that only work on certain sites? or are there settings that have to be changed? Pls advise.
