Opera just died on me

---

X7510 running stock ROM, WM 6.1.

When I go to start Opera, or click on a link in an email, the flash screen starts up, the graphic works on the flash screen, then nothing, the app itself refuses to launch. Yes I have tried a soft reset.

As a workaround, how could I make something else the default browser, like Netfront Access, so that it would automatically start when I click on a web link?

thanks

try setting

try setting,personal then buttons from there you can change it to any browser you have installed,so when you hold on to home button it should open up the browser that you set.

thanks, that works, but the problem is that if I click on a link in an email, it automatically tries to open Opera, and of course fails. I would like it to open the beta of Netfront Access, or even a different beta of Opera, but at least to open some working browser that goes to the link!!

Is there some way of setting the default browser in the registry?

thanks

I don't think you can- and it frustrates the hell out of me as well

I want to use Netfront for all browser activity and I have it set as the default browser, but any web links within emails still open Opera. I've tried going right through the registry changing all the references to Opera to point to Netfront but it still happens so there must be a hard coded instruction somewhere!

thanks - I tried the latest beta of Opera, but it too failed saying that it couldn't initiate DirectDraw, whavever that may mean.

I have re-loaded now, see what happens.

thanks - and I agree with the frustration over app associations!
