<![CDATA[Opera Mini 8 beta 4 for Android]]>Hi all,

We are proud to update Opera Mini for Android beta today. We’ve been busy adding some nice, new features, such as:

  • An easy way to reload by swiping down from the top of page.
  • The option to postpone big downloads until you are on a Wi-Fi.
  • A nice loading bar showing the progress of receiving a page.
  • The good old feeds feature, which can be enabled in the settings menu.

If you’re running the most recent version of the Opera Mini for Android alongside this beta, you will be asked if you want to import some data on startup.

We also translated Opera Mini beta into twice as many languages. That said, please bear with us as we haven’t been able to translate the newly added features, yet.

Again, thank you for being a part of our beta testing. Please leave your feedback in the comments.

You can get Opera Mini for Android beta here: http://opr.as/mn

Enjoy!

The beta is looking good....

But is there a way to view my data usage for the current session like in the old mini? It was a neat feature.

And where is the page title? It was useful.

Thanks.

Besides, TCP SYN packet signature has syn/max_segment as 10/1 ratio with 0 scale via socket and that feels stupid. Checking whoer.net and noc.to.

but one question: how could I disable the "swipe down to reload"?
because I think it useless considering when we scroll up the adress bar show up along with the reload button.
we even don't have to reach the top of the page.

You can't disable it, but we will tweak it in an upcoming update. However, you should only get it when you reach the top of the page. Please file a bug through Settings - "Report a problem" if that's not the case.

feeds is back baby!

as far as I can tell this function brought by android lollipop is pretty much garbage on every application that isn't a social media, so implement it in opera mini only equal annoyance.

and please give option to disable the autohide on address/tabs bar. that's the thing I really want you to do all this time guys.

We have some known issues with the Speed Dial right now. One thing is that you can get back Speed Dial entries that you've already deleted. Another thing is that the special items (Bookmarks, Saved Pages, Feeds) can move around and behave unpredictable.

This was because of a major change that landed right before the last beta, but we're working on fixing them. Thank you for your patience. 🙂

Opera does not load any website. Even the saved pages imported from Opera Mini Stable.
Sorry for my english

Could you add some information about your device? We haven't been able to reproduce this issue here.

mini 8 android wants email for bookmark sync. but i have mini 7 and i can login and sync via my opera forum username. how to sync mini 8 with opera forum user name so we can get opera mini 7 online saved bookmarks??? can anyone help?
mods seems too busy and they dont reply to their users

The old system called "Opera Link" is not compatible with the new syncing feature, but you can use the same login credentials if you like. You can access your old data on link.opera.com

Fix it. Also, the font size is slightly larger even when it's set to small.

Are they going to keep track of every possible internet connection? It seems a great idea, but also non-trivial...

  1. Night Mode: Because many people often use Opera Mini when they are in dark (bedtime, lights out....). So it help us to protect our eyes.
  2. Auto image quality changing: If enabled, Image Quality auto changes when we use data (off) or wifi (high or low or whatever users choose).
    I don't remember how many times and how long i wrote this suggestions and email for opera But nothing changes. I hope you won't let me down again.
