Was able to get the superior opera 88 working.
All I had to do was sync everything up and then download an APK file of the latest version of opera 88 and install it with a third party installer. I used APKPure but there may be others.
The older 88 version runs so much better and it doesn't have those stupid groups of tabs and everything being rounded smaller totally useless...
Make sure you disable updates through the Google Play Store
Also still using the superior opera 99 on the desktop but had to manually block all the access to the update server otherwise I got that garbage opera one lag fest bubble trash browser
