9.5 is in ROM. It can't be replaced, except as the selected default browser.

no its not replacing the old opera, also Remember its a beta, auto rotation and zoom bar probably havent been implemented yet........

Awesome browser but for me it hesitates too much sometimes before going to the page......

i'm on turbo mode and its faster than 9.5 for me. i actually like it alot better than 9.5 besides the lack of zoom bar and auto-rotation currently. its resource release seems way better than 9.5 as well.

i havent been able to use zoom bar, but it seems to have a new way of zooming ... also for some reason, landscape and auto-rotation is not working on my phone ... it only switches to landscape when i pull-out the qwerty ... anyone else having this problem?

in the video on pocketnow.com the guy says that it doesnt support the g-sensor yet so landscape only works with the keyboard

Is there a way to import Favorites from 9.5/9.7? I looked for an Opera6.adr file and could not find one.

i found my 9.7 favorites under IE favorites in 10b. i think theres a way in 9.5 and 9.7 to save your bookmarks under IE favorites, then u can open them easily in 10b

Re: opera mobile 10 BETA!

Nice find... I just beat the hell out of your THANX.

Re: opera mobile 10 BETA!

Every time I hit the Launch Browser button in TF3D it tries to load up file://localhost/home in the address bar. It then gives me an error "Could not open file". :scratch:

When I uninstalled opera 10. TF3D loads up iexplorer when pressing the Launch Browser...

Did anyone have this problem?
How do I get it back to load opera 9.5

Thanks in advance

Re: opera mobile 10 BETA!

Good find thanks.

I like it.

It has the same new Home Page as Opera Mini which I'm not too keen about. Too many sites have something obscure in the upper left corner and some sites have nothing. I like how the Droid does it, it takes a thumbnail of a good part of the page, it looks very good and easy to recognize.

My biggest gripe is flick scrolling through a page. Only iPhone and Opera Mini "Stay Snapped" to a column of Text. Why can't other browsers do this? As you scroll you zig zag down the screen and have to keep recentering it. Drives me insane.

Other than that it's working quite good and is very fast.

I wish the gyro would auto rotate the darn thing.

Turbo mode actually seemed a tad slower to me. But I have not tested it that long.

I'm kinda glad the hardware zoom control is ignored I swear it messed up zooming permanently in my 9.5 install. Zooming is totally whacko in 9.5 once I used that zoom control. It's almost perfect in 10.0 beta now. How ever it will size up the width based on the text you click on but then is dumb and doesn't center on it. Again iPhone safari does this perfect. It is beta and is the best Mobile Browse for WM yet. I think it may bump opera mini.

I can hear the chatter of ROM Cookers HDD's building new roms with Opera 10.0 Beta right now :)

Re: opera mobile 10 BETA!

Pretty nice. Good speed and the scrolling is soooo much smoother and precise. Couple gripe points though:

1) tap to zoom in, but can't tap to zoom out. Granted, I just have to tap the unzoom button in the bottom left.
2) can't bring up the status bar to see connection strength and notices.
3) rotation on keyboard slide is slooooooooooooow.
4) seems to be a little more sensitive to link selections. Had quite a few times where I was scrolling or zooming and it thought I clicked a link and started loading a page.
