Sorry to say, but it is the same situation with the new Opera 29 released the other day!
It's still messing up my speed dial folders.I have to keep Opera sync turned off to avoid it.

stefanb222 I'm sorry to hear that. We're hard at work with speed dial sync and hope to have it ready really soon. If we can manage to reproduce your issue before then we will adress it.

If it's any help, here's some more details about the fault.
Phones are both Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy s6 edge (same problem on both). Both running Android Lollipop.
I have around total 25 speed dials organised in 6 folders.
To reproduce it's just to log in to Opera sync and then normal use of Opera. Starting, browsing and then closing on both phones. With normal use, within a day or two, suddenly the speed dial folders are all messed up like I described earlier. It's pretty consistent. It's just a matter of time when it happens.
Hope it helps

Thanks for the info. I've passed it along to the right people. Let's hope they can manage to reproduce it.

Are the folders themselves messed up or is it only the content of the folders? Or the other way around? or both?
Is any other device connected like, the Opera for desktop or iOS?
We're grateful for any feedback

Hi,the amount of speed dial folders stay constant. It's the content of them that gets messed up. It moves bookmarks between folders and also duplicating them into several folders. It seems completely random how they are moved or duplicated.
And I'm logged in to several Android devices, but no desktop or iOS.
Cheers

i can tell you for sure it only happens when you are log in to Opera account on more device.
i dont beleve that is randomly
it doesn't duplicate or mix the single off folder dials just the ones that are in some folder
example in folder 1 gmail g+ folder 2 youtube Facebook twitter.. after OFF ON both folders are with all five dials
imagen the chaos if you have 5 folder with 4 dials after Off On
5 x 4 = 5 folder with same 20 dialsi hope you understand now im not trolling

im sure that device is not important
but i dont know how the synchronisation is working when you have opera and opera beta on one device like me now.. wich of them is priority to syncronise with other device ..the first folder stays the same with the same number of dials .. the other ones are mixing and reorder i watch folder two go right and folder 3 go left.. and both now are with more duplicate dilas from other folders
is good that i can remove whole folder because now all folders are duplicate with many dials just the number one folder is same

@stefanb222 and @mele1986 thank for the feedback, with your help I actually managed to recreate the issue, weird thing is that the speeddials issue should not reproduce, since we are not syncing speed dials (yet), but the data on device becomes corrupted/mixed up during sync operation nevertheless. Now we have repro steps and we will be able to resolve this soon.
End result (what i've seen so far) seems like second and last folders get SDs copied over to each other and that the folders swicth place, really weird and unforeseen. I tried 4 folders and will continue testing with larger test data (i.e. more folders)
However, I did not manage to get any corruption in my bookmarks folders. How did you manage that, any specific steps?

Great that you managed to reproduce it.
.Åt least for me I never got any corruption in the bookmarks folder. Only inside the speed dial folders. Sorry if it sounded like that.
Looking forward to the correction so I can finally enable sync.
Keep up the good work.

Hi, I have the same problem is really annoying, actually I have opera 29, there is a solution?, second time that use sync and tabs&bookmarks sync works fantastic but all my folders in speed dial where untidy. I use speed dial more than bookmarks.

it was my pleasure to help and this is one very big bug so i was concern.. luckily this only happens with singed account so many users dont have this problem
i dont know do you have people for testing .. much of the bugs was discovered and reported from me for free
lol
but i love Opera and im using it many many years on all devices so think on me when you want to hire people for testing and consulting
