Crashing on some Samsung devices.

I don't have DT Ignite either, nor ever heard about it.
However, I searched about it and found this:
https://cellularnews.com/mobile-apps/what-is-dt-ignite-why-you-should-delete-it/TL;DR: It's either called "DT Ignite" or "Mobile Services Manager", and actually, "Mobile Services Manager" was installed in my phone. Once I disabled it (can't uninstall), Opera is working!
How to find and disable "Mobile Services Manager":
- go to "settings"
- go to "apps"
- enable listing system apps by clicking on the sorting icon next to "Your apps", and turning on the slider "Show system apps" (I'm translating from my phone language, might differ a little in your particular case)
- search for "Mobile Services Manager", select it, and disable it at the bottom of the app settings.
And voilà! Opera works again!
However, as that links states: "With DT Ignite, you only have to deal with one app and have it disabled as soon as the initial phone setup is done. After that, you can forget about it until the next system update provided by the manufacturer or data carrier comes in, or when the time you decide to reset the phone.". So it would be great if Opera would work even if DT Ignite/Mobile Services Manager is running.

Very interesting.
I confirm that I also found "Mobile Services Manager" on my phone. Only later will I be able to do some tests by reinstalling the Secure Folder to see if Opera still works even with the active one.
I agree that I'm hoping for a fix from Opera so I don't have to keep a system app disabled (even if it doesn't seem to have any use for the user). -

@miyukiwork I don't have either DT ignite or Mobile Services Manager, and in my S21 the issue started around November when I was still on Android 12. I only upgrade to Android 13 last week. I have always had Secure Folder enabled as well a work profile (knox).
I also use opera on a Samsung S6 lite tablet (with secure folder and work profile) and I have had no issues there. The tablet is already on Android 13.
I have been using vivaldi since the issue on the S21

Just to double check: have you checked within systems apps, not just the lists of apps in your phone?
Explained in step 3 here:

As announced for my phone, on which Opera only worked if Secure Folder was disabled, I proceeded to test the solution proposed by miyukiwork/efolch:
- reactivated Secure Folder;
- tested Opera, which started crashing again;
- deactivated the "Mobile Services Manager" system app;
- re-tested Opera which worked flawlessly.
I therefore confirm the effectiveness of the solution.
Thanks to all for the contributions. -

@miyukiwork Hello,
I have re-enabled mobile services manager and normal opera has once again stopped working although after installing the latest version of opera beta it seems to have no issues whatsoever! Would be happy if you let us know when it is patched on the normal version.

We have released OfA 73 now and it include the fix. This is currently rolling out gradually, so the availability might not be immediate.
If you still have the problem, please let me know and send in a log file.

Since we've got some inquiries about the solution. Here it is.
We have filed a bug to AppsFlyer* and they have fixed the issue.
So the solution is to update the SDK version to the latest. They fixed the issue in 6.10.1 https://support.appsflyer.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001256006-AppsFlyer-Android-SDK-release-notes*It was an AppsFlyer bug
