@johnbrook You can just enable DNS Over TCP (DOT) on Android settings.

@miyukiwork Hello, I just tested it in Opera Android app. It is working. I suggest that in addition to Cloudflare and Google Public DNS servers, you add OpenDNS 208.67.222.222 and Quad9 9.9.9.9 by default as they are the 4 most popular. Also, I ask you to release the DoH feature for Opera Mini (android) as well. Thank you.

"DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN is a common error message that occurs in Google Chrome when the browser fails to resolve a domain name. This error indicates that the DNS (Domain Name System) lookup for the requested website has failed, resulting in an ""NXDOMAIN"" response, which means the domain does not exist.

To resolve the DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN error, you can follow a few troubleshooting steps. First, check your internet connection to ensure it's stable and working correctly. If the issue persists, you can try the following solutions:

Clear DNS Cache: Start by clearing your browser's DNS cache. You can do this by typing ""chrome://net-internals/#dns"" in the address bar, pressing Enter, and then clicking on ""Clear host cache.""

Flush DNS: Open the command prompt as an administrator and type the command ""ipconfig /flushdns"" to flush the DNS resolver cache on your computer.

Change DNS Server: Consider changing your DNS server to a more reliable and fast one. The article at https://appuals.com/how-to-fix-dns_probe_finished_nxdomain-on-google-chrome/ provides step-by-step instructions on changing your DNS server settings.

Disable Proxy Settings: If you are using a proxy server, disable it temporarily and check if the error still occurs.

Disable VPN: If you are using a VPN service, try disabling it and see if the problem persists.

If none of these solutions resolve the issue, you may want to contact your internet service provider (ISP) for further assistance or consider using an alternative browser. Remember to always keep your browser and operating system updated to ensure optimal performance and security."
