Hi Guys, thanks for all the comments. I downloaded Opera Mini to my unlocked 9530. I get all the pages working but it only allows me to input the web address, i can not see the full screen or tap, is like frozen. Nothing works when i tap the sreen and when i click on menu botton to hide the keypad. please help me(for the records, i have service with SImple Mobile)
Thank you

Mini Opera is not good for Storm…if you must interact with the web site (select radio buttons, press buttons,…)

Opera Mini is great on the storm as long as you don’t ever need to tick a check box!

Jaymi, I had the exact same problem. I had to download the right version to my pc then use Desktop Manager -> Application Loader to put it on my Storm. I had to really search the site for the version for the Storm. i didn’t want to use the generic version. You can try http://www.getjar.com/products/3334/OperaMiniWebbrowser

The link to OperaMiniWeb Browser is there for 9530. Good Luck. I do like Opera Mini Browser a lot better than the BB Browser. I like that it turns the BB into a touchscreen instead of click screen.

Finally, got it working. The keyboard is screwed in Opera. When I bring up the numbers to type an ip address in the URL bar, it still types in lower case letter

Ok, I downloaded Operamini from my Storm and installed it, now where do I find it to use it? The only place I know to switch from browser to browser is under ‘options’ with a browser open…all I see is still BB, FireFox, and IE.

I’ve been using Opera mini on my 8830 since last summer and prefer it for most sites. Just got a storm and have found the opera mini is very glitchy. I’m bummed, as the BB browser goes thru the corporate BES server which is firewalled and you cannot access sites like facebook, myspace, etc. Opera bypasses the BES and firewall.

As of now, I cannot seem to get logged into facebook on Opera Mini on the storm. I just can’t get the hover to work properly to select the “login” icon on the page. Very frustrating.

i just downloaded it and am pretty happy with it, the only problem is everytime i try to download a new application it sends me to the default bb browser and i get an error 503 message something about the host … basically downloading apps is a pain on this phone… also, it keeps prompting me for every little think, like it asks if it is ok to access the network, etc…
