Yea, actually Yahoo.com is only loading the mobile view for me also. Making that change works for most sites... I'll keep investigating this. If anyone else discovers a user agent that works on all sites please post.

what site can i test to see if i put the user pref info in correctly? basically what site shows up as mobile in default, but as desktop with the previously posted user agent? like i said, i usually test using yahoo.com, but since that's not working i need something else to test with...

Kinda dumn if ya ask me. but I still like it cause its fast, guess ill just have to keep a link of ppcgeeks open at all times so i dont have to sign in again and again. ohhh and no downloading while turbo on either.

As Opera has stated, and stated many times in this thread already, Turbo mode is just beta so not everything is going to work, like saving passwords, downloading, etc...

They could of waited until Turbo mode was more complete before they threw it in this beta, but then alot of us would still be complaining that turbo mode isn't included.

It's not the full version of Opera Turbo yet (yes, that's a Beta feature in a Beta release), but we couldn't wait to show you this cool feature.

People tend to forget that this is only a beta version so not all of the features are going to work, nor is anything really guaranteed to work.

Has anyone found a way to make 9.7 the default browser in TF3D?

When using the Phone Keypad Keyboard or the Compact Qwerty Keyboard, I cannot input any letters in abc mode. I can only input alpha characters in T9 mode. [HTML]
Does anyone else have this issue?
I am using the stock ROM on my Sprint Diamond.
Otherwise, I enjoy the speed of this version and I also like the fact that as I type, the text scrolls upward so I can see what I am typing.
With the 9.5 version, the text would not scroll upward so I could not see what I was typing or correcting and I would have to hide the keyboard to see what I typed.
This is a big deal for me as I never knew what the answer was as to why the screen would not scroll upward before.

I am not seeing that slick rotation animation! Does it happen when switching to landscape mode? On my wm6.5 tytn2 (qvga) it just flips to landscape like normally.
Could someone perhaps post a video of this cool effect that I am missing? Better yet, does anyone have an idea why?

Barely messd with new Opera 9.7, however I can confirm the rotation is fast and cool looking, that is G sensor related.....if u just flip TP, it rotates...Mogul has no sensor..not sure how it reacts if you slide the kb...
