Opera Mini 4 Power Scrolling with the Sprint HTC Touch / Vogue

---

Greetings all,

Opera Mini 4 is one of the best browsers out there for any phone (regular phone or smartphone). Before getting the Touch, I had been using Opera Mini to surf the web on my regular phone.

One of the most convenient features in Opera Mini was the ability to use "Power Scrolling Shortcuts". Where you can scroll around on the web pages quickly by using the phone's number keys. Press 2 to go up, 4 to go left, 6 to go right and 8 to go down. Hitting 5 zooms you in and out.

The Touch isn't able to take advantage of the "power scrolling" because of its lack of of a keypad. Is there a way I can customize or map my D-pad to power scroll?

I've searched far and wide but with no solution in sight. I've also tried VITO ButtonMapper with no luck.

Thanks in advance for your inputs!

I'm surprised you can get OperaMini to run on the Touch! Every time I load it and run it, I get a Java runtime error. But I loved it on my last phone.

Yeah, I also had the same issue until I downloaded Cloudyfa's Jbed Midlet Manager. You can find it here:

This Jbed midlet manager seems to run faster and more stable than the one installed with Sprint's Touch. Additionally, it makes more efficient use of your screen by allowing Opera Mini to run in full screen mode.

umm... for me it's already set up like this. i just use the d-pad to scroll around the page.

is that what you mean? though the only way to zoom out is to hit the on-screen button.
