Re: Opera Mini Update coming.
 

Totally agree. I have noticed Opera Mobile has been crashing alot lately no matter what version I use, settings, etc. Mini is still reliable. only thing that bothers me about it, is there seems to be cutoff to images so if you are on a site with say 100 images it may only get 3/4 down and the rest will never load. never could figure this out.

Well, they are down to 4 puzzle pieces! should be by tomorrow at this point.

Re: Opera Mini Update coming.
 

Looking good but Ill stick with 4.2 until they fix some of the bugs. Main one being that I cant use the arrow keys to scroll up and down.

Re: Opera Mini 5 beta Released!
 

testing it out now. though it has some slight rendering issues when it comes to how pages look in desktop form. ITS JUST AS FAST as 4.2 with REAL TABBED browsing. The browsing works flawlessly. whats weird is that it has its own SIP but I use a touch pro and the hardware keyboard works fine. Tabs switch easily and has better memory management then opera mobile. honestly looks like opera mini is the way to go for speed when it comes to browsing.

im done with 9.5 :p i miss opera mini and i never used 4.2 so this is very refreshing.
although the "allow untrusted, blah blah data" warning keeps popping up.
we need a titanium opera mini plugin

love it!!!!!!!!!

Re: Opera Mini Update coming.
 

Same.
The potential is most definitely there for it to be the best mobile browser, but they need to iron out some of the bugs.

Trying to save a page froze Opera Mini for me.

Trying to pull out my keyboard on my Touch Pro and force it into landscape mode resulted in the screen turning white, thus effectively crashing it.

When having just a few tabs open, then trying to go back to another tab, I usually discover that Opera Mini disabled the content on that page forcing me to refresh it because it tells me that its trying to save me memory...my Touch Pro has more than enough memory to handle multiple tabs (compressed tabs/sites at that), so this shouldn't be happening as frequently as it does or with so few tabs as it does.

There should be a quick way to get to your homescreen (speeddial) without having to open a new tab. This one is just a preference of mine rather than a bug.

Also, it shouldn't ask me every single time if I want to give it permission to access the net or if I trust the app itself, twice each time I launch Opera Mini and try to go to a web site. That annoyed me immensely about 4.2, but the XDA-devs took care of that by removing those permissions. I would have hoped this annoyance would have been removed altogether from 5.0, yet it's still there.

Scroll (somewhat kinetic it would seem) is nice, but I find that it requires me to be a lot more steady than before, as OM 5.0 tends to move left/right a lot when scrolling up and down in pages. OM 4.2 snapped to text more tightly, but I suppose that has to do with the new scrolling engine that's implemented.

Also, something I could never quite figure out (maybe its limited to Touch Pro's) is why does landscape mode slow down browsing? Browsing becomes noticably less smooth and choppier in landscape mode. Oddly enough, in 4.2, when I pulled out the keyboard however, OM 4.2 would automatically switch to landscape mode, but then it would be a lot smoother than if I were to not have the keyboard pulled out and selected landscape mode from the menu itself.
Weird...

Re: Opera Mini Update coming.
 

so far so good. I have several jbeds that I'm trying now to see if I can find the best mix. I am sure within a few days people will have advice on configuration. I like it so far.
