Opera Mini 8 beta for Windows Phone

Firstly, thanks for another update, slowly starting to work somehow.
My test for stability and the overall quality of the browser in WinPhone is Battlelog (http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/, normal version, not mobile).
If it loads at all, allow me to log in and withstand not crashing more than a few seconds is good. Opera page does not load BL at all.
Rendering engine is still ancient and bad, pages look awful.
Despite my best intentions, as a user of Opera on the PC for more than 10 years still have to use these pseuo-crashing-every-few-minutes-browsers like Surfy, UC Browser etc.

well after downloading new updated beta version i feel major problems are not solved that very sad

the 2g network does not work hindi website does not open the page gets freeze and major website dont open smoothly

well I feel the first beta was much bettter why the first beta is not upgraded properly and why is that opera mini for windows is still lagging in performance and stability

i feel u need to give us full working browser to update u fully bugs I feel pl enable all features and then it will be better to find deep bugs for opera mini for windows

it is reallly not happy moment that each update is not making brpwser towards perfection I feel we need to work for bettter browser very seriously

it is almost 10 months and we need to put our hard efforts to bring bettter browser for windows and put a goood browser for working part

the bugs are

2g network does not work website freezess

3G NETWORK opens website slowly
anywebsite serached in google does not open website
the browser gets closed when working on website
font gets zoom too big fit to page is missing

A download with opera mini 8.0.1.7 does not save a file with data on the phone. But it is a file with 0 kb that can not be used. I can transfer it to another directory but in the ms 'files' app it stays without data. A jpg with 0 kb can not be seen, An mp3 without content can not be heard.
I'm using a Lumia Icon 929

Could you share an example url to a file where it happens?

example :
http://www.radio1.be/programmas/de-ochtend/vliegtuigcrash-je-kan-nooit-alle-risicos-uitsluiten-de-samenleving

On this page the url to the sound file saves a file with no data.
When I click on the corresponding picture. I can save it. When I try to display it using the ms 'files' app it is not possible because it says 0 KB.

Answering to bass305:

No back/forward button
No opera link
No option for disable remember passwords on all sites
No option for change quality images
Power supply for download files
Can't browse because only appear yellow box on link 
Tab switch is annoying, Add option for change like old style or on list view

Never used back/forward button, return function from the phone is enough. Never used opera link. Passwords are remembered normally by web pages. Quality image is fine as soon it's maximum quality. Need of Power supply for download files could be an issue. Very few web pages are'nt accessible. I'm delighted with new design.

Answering to vigneshlin:

Browser is a bit more buggy than previous one
Much slower in browsing
Font is too small even on large setting
Image quality doesn't change
Tamil fonts not display properly.
about:config not opening.

Browser is more stable, but sometimes app closes suddenly. IT IS TRUE, IT IS SLOWER, but I expect that's going to be fixed in the future. For fonts, large text size setting is perfect. Image quality is OK as soon as it's the maximum quality. I don't use tamil fonts, just regular english-spanish keyboard. Config is not so extended as before, to me it's OK, best setting is Single Column View.

Could you give a couple of examples of places (or use cases) that you see it is slower than the previous version?

PLEASE, give me back previous version of Opera Mini for WP!

All of my open tabs are lost, my history is lost. I had like 10 open tabs, thank god I decided to upgrade after vacation. This single issue could make me upset, but I still can handle it.
Toolbar takes up a lot of precious space on small phone display. If you want to get rid of menu button in bottom right corner, add some offscreen swipe gesture instead.
I don't care about correct html rendering, give me back previous page layout algorithm, so I can zoom in and read text without problems. If there's any problem with particular page, I can still open it in IE and I practice it this way.
Double tap to intelligent zoom in doesn't work any more. Maybe this is the single most important feature lost. Why do you think there are still smaller phones operable with one hand only?

So, Why the hell should I use Opera Mini anymore? Do you even have any idea, why we are using this instead of IE on the phone?

Thank you very much.

And last but not least. Please don't forget older version was able to hold rendered content in memory even after restart. So I wasn't usually reloading open tabs after restart. Very helpful feature when on trip and multitasking between browser and map application. This one lost feature makes me hesitate if I should stay with WP or switch to another OS. Thanks for understanding.

the new ui is really very impressive in wp 8.1 but it's quite slower. it crashes sometimes in lumia 730. is there any possibility to upgrade it to Windows mobile 10 in future?. best of luck for next development.

I've been trying to update Opera on my WP for more than a week now, but I always get an error. The link that goes with the error leads to a non-existent Microsoft help page. Error code is 80073cf6. What shall I do?

Hi,

As the "saved pages" is disabled on the version 8.0.1.7 - are my saved pages disappeared too? So, as soon as the "saved pages" feature will be again available can I see my old pages again ?
