Opera Mini 4 Beta 2 doesn't work with Chinese regional setting

[wongcz]

Hi, I got my ATT Tilt couple days ago and installed a Chinese Character decoder program CESTAR 2.8R (for reading chinese books and newspaper). The program changed regional setting from English (United States) to Chinese (Hong Kong S.A.R). Everything was working fine until I try running Opera Mini 4 Beta 2 browser in Java. I guess the opera brower is not compatible with the Chinese regional setting and would not start up. As a matter of fact, none of the Java apps start up anymore. I am wondering if anyone has a solution to this? (can obviously switch back to English (United States) for regional setting but that will disable the chinese character viewer program) Appreciate any help on this.


Thanks,

I have the same problem with Opera Mini 4 Final.

I have:

- Asukal's Let's Japan No. 6
- Asukal's IME cab
- (these two changed regional settings to Japanese)
- Jbed (by far the best recommended Java midlet manager)
- Opera Mini 4

Opera Mini 4 can never launch.

The reason is probably as described in that Jbed does not work with most non-English regional settings, as explained in the wonderful wiki guide here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Opera%20Mini%204%3A%20A%20new%2 0star%20is%20born%20-%20the%20FREE%28%21%29%20Web%20browser%20you%20MUS T%20give%20a%20try%20to

Unfortunately, the wiki does not recommend what to do for Japanese or Chinese locale. Given how non-Jbed Midlet managers are said to be much much worse, I don't know if I even want to search for such a solution.

For now, I'm going to try Opera Mobile instead of Opera Mini; if that also doesn't support Japanese, then I'll have to look for another browser (since Internet Explorer doesn't seem to work either).

Thanks,

ALWAYS follow my articles and posts posted to the General forum if you don't search the Wiki. It was a few days ago that I've explained there's a new Jbed version, which already supports non-Western localizations.
