Sorry for the double text. I couldn't modify it because there is no option for that.

How come the problem with tabs always reloading when I get back to them is not yet fixed? This is there since version 15. I am using Galaxy S2.

This is really annoying when on Facebook or 9Gag. These pages get Content every few seconds and once I switch the tab and get back the browser will reload the page automatically after half a second and the I lose my current reading position and have to scrool and search where I was earlier.

This bug doesnt only happen once a while, it is 100% every time I get back to a tab which I had opened earler.

Opera Beta has the same issue as well.

Another thing I am missing is that the text I input into a text field is wrapped like it used to be in version 12. In version 12 I never had to scroll sidewards while posting into a forum. The text was neatly wrapped in a way I just relaxed and scrolled up and down when was rereading or correcting it. Now I have to scroll like on and old type writer down, up, right, left and up again etc.. This feature is one of my great loses since version 12.

I am having issues with a display bug for embedded elements :

The YouTube video is far out of margin.

Issue occurs in all other versions of Opera browser too.

And it takes them a year to fix it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WTF Opera!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I downgraded to version 15 due to this. No tabs crashing and reloading without my permission there.

The no pan bug has disappeared after me rebooting the browser. Ghis was on focus.de, ard.de and zeit.de and some blogspot anf thumblr sites. All the pages had in common that they had html5 video embedded.

Currently can't reproduce it too.

About discovery. This is good to know. I travel a lot and use roaming, each kb starts to count. All apps are usually behind droidwall apart from my browser.. But if the traffic is minimal that is fine. I d appreciate if there would be an option to deactivate though ;).

Currently downgraded my Opera Browser to version 15. The reloading tabs isn't present there on my device. Ghe current version is definetly faster, but the usability matters more.

I heard current Beta supports flash? Tried a site but only got the message plugin not active or so.

@ bpydzinski

Thx for your reply.

This means when my background tabs are reloading every 30-60 sec when I just move to another tab, these tabs crashed ? This is sad because for me that means the tabs always crash when I am not having them in the foreground..

I thought it was a new feature. I d be glad to have this fixed, because apart from the fact that I can't disable discovery, this browser has good potential.

By the way, I noticed that on the latest beta, if you zoom on a page and you are on the left corner, you cannot pan to the right -> some content is not accessable because it is past the screen. This works fine in the stable though.

- Fixed crash when scrolling while selecting text in Off-Road mode
- Fixed issues with translations

Update is now available on Google Play, all users are recommended to update.

How ignorant. Can't remember anyone complaining about all that. What about complains that are beieng discussed over and over again here ? Do you even read the comments ?

Currently using One Browser because of following reasons.

1. Opera M is bloated with features that cannot be optionally chosen :
a ) descovery. I hate it that the browser always loads stuff I dont care about. This is surely a way of spaming. But though there have been complains, Opera ignores this.
b) the browser reloads background tabs automatically every few seconds or minutes. Can someone tell me what good this is ? I only know that when I am on 9gag.com and I switch to another tab, I usually lose the position I was before and have to scroll afresh. When I am typing on a board, I end up losing my text on some sites.
And last but not least this creates unnecessary traffic. I don't care if I am on wifi or not ! At my university everyone has a limited amount of traffic allowed through wifi.
2. No flash support. On ICS and co Opera was the leading browser in this. Opera doesn't care.
3. Bookmarks. I cannot manage bookmarks like on Version 12. If I set a bookmark, I first have to set it as speed dial, then I have to go to speed dial before I can asign it to a folder ? ? ? ??

Well most of what has gone wrong with Opera, is beieng worked on on One Browser. I even wrote this text with it. Very promising.

So guys, it is sad, but I think Opera is not a future browser on the mobile market because they are focusing too much on new stuff rather than catching up with what was awesome about them.
