Re: Bolt web browser updated
 

I installed bolt and used it the first time after it installed. Where do you run it from the second time. It didn't create any icons or anything. How do i start java applications I guess is my basic question.

I think everyone will have this issue. I actually contacted Bolt tech support and they responded back to me but never answered the question. They gave me instructions on how to enter text instead....so I replied back today and asked them again. Told them the problem is isn't adding passwords, it's retaining the password information like you can do with opera mini. Hopefully they come up with a fix. Thanks

find the big E icon in your programs. or go to the programs tab and look for esmertec java. You need to open your java vm first and select Bolt. good luck.

I appreciate you taking the time and making inquiries about this issue. I dont recall, was this also an issue with the first release? My memory is shot :)

I think so but I really didn't give the first one much of a workout. Honestly, if they would add the ability to save passwords, I would use this daily. I actually renders several pages better than mini-which I love and is just as quick. Oh well, we'll see what they say. Also, keep your eyes out for Opera 9.7 which should come out in May. It's going to be the best browser ever, hybrid between mini speed and mobile rendering. Awesome stuff.

Here is the response from Bolt today:

Hello,

Yes this is very important to us, I will send this to our senior engineer
group.

Thank you for helping us to make BOLT better by sharing your feedback.


Thanks,

my question to them:

Thanks but this is not the answer to my question. I know how to enter
logins, the problem is Bolt doesn't retain the passwords like opera mini.
So if close the session, and go back to your bookmarks, the passwords are
not saved so you need to re-enter them. Just something you guys should
look into because this prohibits me from using this browser over mini. I
can be up and running much quicker with them due to the passwords being
saved but your Browser renders better so you would probably pick up alot
more users with this feature. Thanks.

Re: Bolt web browser updated
 

Here you guys.. I just edited my opera mini shortcut to open bolt instead....

I installed opera mini then bolt...if it's not working for you. Open the shortcut with note pad and edit S__ to what ever the bolt is. Mine was Opera MINI s0 and bolt was s1



28#"\Windows\jbed.exe" -run s1_?\

Re: Bolt web browser updated
 

tonight I was on bolt's site and noticed there's another version up. Beta2 was out in april 09, Beta3 is out now but not sure how long it's been up. works very well for general browsing but still doesn't save passwords. oh well, seems a little snappier though. check it out here:
