i downloaded opera mini and it was on my phone. I was running the setup and was on the last step and it would say that something is wrong with the internet. Could not connect or something... But I am connected because I can use the bb browser.

Do you all really like Opera Mini? I use the regular Opera on my PC - but I've tried Opera Mini on a couple of PDA's and on my Pearl. Nothing but grief and problems.

Or you could just type in Bump in the other one and that would solve the problem..

De Gustibus Non Est Disputandum.

please, bear in mind that BBerry is being used all over the world not only in USA. when i made these list i had this in my mind.

thank you for your understanding.

As NJBlackBerry says, "step away from the New Thread button".

Not at all. Any form of criticism has its own positive side.
The idea was of having a new one that unites all previous posts. And as I can see it is working.

This applies to davidariz too:


Opera is a great tool unfortunately cannot configure the wep settings for you.
And I must say that it is normal to be this way as there are thousands of telephony providers with ten of thousand different settings.

I had the same problems with my opera installation. Well installed but I couldn't surf at all while the default browser was working fine.
The reason?
99.9% missing wep settings.

GO TO:
OPTIONS
ADVANCED OPTIONS
TCP

Here we've got the following fields ready to be filled in:
APN:
Username for APN:
Password for APN:

I’m in United Kingdom and my provider is O2.

So, the correct settings in my case are:

APN: mobile.o2.co.uk
Username for APN: mobileweb
Password for APN: password

Save, restart and now surf with opera.

so i have a question about the opra mini, its free, but will your service provider still cahrge you money to acess the internet through opora mini if you dont have the internet in your plan?

[laurentio]

"if you dont have the internet in your plan?..."
i am afraid that you won't be able to access the internet at all with or without opera.

[Gmsup788]

oh, thats ok, i dont think the internet is worth an extra $30 a month when i have a computer and laptop to acess it.

Well, it is disputable.
For a domestic user might not be worth it in those circumstances…
To me is very important. I do spend £10 extra each month as I can't afford loosing an e-mail worth £250 while I am driving or having my tea....

PocketMac doesn't seem to be as flexable with installs as the desktop version. I've installed 2 applications via PocketMac. Both times, I got the same error. The .alx file is a text file in XML format. Down towards the bottom, you'll find a section that reads:

			<files>
				midpsshe2.cod midpsshe2_1.cod
			</files>

Delete the "_1" file from the list, and it installs fine. YMMV.

Thanks, I got it installed, but NOW when goes through the network setup, at stage 11 I get "Failed to connect to Internet". So now I have to call TMo and ask about the settings. I went to the Opera Mini page and this is what they say to set the phone to, but I don't know where the hell to put all this info in (after wandering aimlessly through the options settings):

T-Mobile (Internet): Manual Setup*

Address
internet2.voicestream.com
DNS
216.155.175.105
DNS
216.155.175.106
Proxy

Address
216.155.175.188
Port
8080

Then I tried laurentino's way: using mobile.tmo.co.us, etc, but that didn't work (I don't know if the TMobile and the us for United States is correct.



But I might add, that Beyond 411 app is the bomb!

Here's a great resource for finding your APN settings.

allright even with the list I just provided I can't get my operamini to work either. Anyone?

[TeddyKGB]

Damn, sorry for the multiple posts. For those of us T-mobile users in the US, use the settings in the above link for T-Mobile w/o contract (wap.voicestream.com, guest, guest)
