Re: Bolt web browser updated
 

Download it from your phones browser. Or you may not have Java installed on your device (although unlikely)

Re: Bolt web browser updated
 

actually Bolt very much improved. Kind of reminds me of Teashark which seems to be out of action. Thanks for the update:headbang:

im running 6.5 and tried downloading from opera. not sure if java's installed

Re: Bolt web browser updated
 

do you have jbed installed? If not, you can install one of the jbed cabs out there. Then you can use bolt, or opera mini. If you need a jbed let me know. Also check your programs for a Java coffee icon or a big E and that should be it.

Re: Bolt web browser updated
 

thanks ill give that a try

anyone have any luck saving passwords in Bolt. Tried to do this but they never stick like mini. Other than that, this browser is very good.

Holy **** this thing is fast.

I mean seriously, they must be rendering most of the stuff on their servers (a la Opera 9.7) and then uploading the page to us as an image file or something.

For example, the time it takes to FULLY load a couple of the websites is as follows:

Nytimes.com:
Iris Browser (1.1.6) = 1 min 20 secs
Opera Mobile (9.5) = 1 min 13 secs
Bolt = 9 secs

Just for kicks: Desktop (Opera 10.00 1) = 2 secs

9 seconds!

Engadget.com:
Iris Browser (1.1.6) = 1 min 45 secs
Opera Mobile (9.5) = 1 min 30 secs
Bolt = 9 secs

Just for kicks: Desktop (Opera 10.00 1) = 2 secs

9 seconds, again.

Seriously, this thing is almost as fast as my laptop/desktop =D>

Plus, scrolling throughout a page/site is silky smooth.
No choppiness whatsoever, and also no more checkerboard backgrounds.

They need to tweak the UI to make it more finger-friendly, and allow you to run flash-based videos directly within the browser instead of saving it then playing it with your media player, but aside from that, this is my new browser of choice.

Amazingly fast and renders impeccably well.
