It looks like things are better now, but here's what I've discovered (and I'm new on the forums here since MyOpera was closed): The installation is workable, but the Opera Link feature, according to reading more in that section, is all but over with. Hard to believe, since I just used it for a new phone a few months ago. But I went ahead on my current device and, using my account at link.opera.com, recreated 21 new Speed Dials manually. If the OM update had initially worked I wouldn't have had to do anything to replace them, but I ended up uninstalling OM then downloading and reinstalling it, which trashed all that had been saved on this device. So it looks like I'll be very cautious updating OM from here on out with my other Android phones. What a hassle!

RE: Opera Link is not workingSynchronization
I use Opera Mini for Android. Had a difficult update to the program today, but even though that appears to finally be settled, Opera Link will not complete its usual task. I can log into and connect, then syncing appears to start, but it just spins and spins, and eventually freezes the app.

RE: Opera Mini 7.6.3 on AndroidOpera Mini
Sorry, 7.6.4 is what Opera reports as version when you look (from navigation area at bottom) at "Help>About Opera". Android Settings>Applications shows 7.6.3xxx.
I tried a fresh install from the Google Play Store a few minutes ago. I got it installed (I didn't try turning off Home Page), but had continuing trouble with Opera Link. I could log in and connect and it would appear to start synchronizing, but it never really progressed, and eventually froze the app. I could hit the phone's Home key and get back to the Home Screen, but starting the app from that point just brought me back to the same stuck/frozen point.
Do I need to start posting in the Opera Link section? I never had trouble with the version immediately previous to this one.

RE: Opera Mini 7.6.3 on AndroidOpera Mini
For the time being I've given up on 7.6.4, and obtained and installed 7.6.2. Problem now is Opera Link seems to not be working. I can't get my Speed Dials and Bookmarks moved over to the device. Maybe it's my company's internet connection; I'll try further this evening when at home.

Tried a fresh install from the Play Store a few minutes ago. No improvement so far. I may be left with going back to v7.6.3.

RE: Opera Mini 7.6.3 on AndroidOpera Mini
The sync never completes, and you're left with backing out using the "Back" key of the device. No Opera Mini screen functions work. You can close the app and reopen but there is no Mini start screen or navigation keys (status bar, etc.). I'm in the U.S.

RE: Opera Mini 7.6.3 on AndroidOpera Mini
I've tried the described fix and can now manually enter URLs and see the results correctly, but I'm trying to sync via Opera Link and it's behaving strangely, taking a long time, and when the device display times out and I wake it up it's really unrecognizable as to what's going on. I've never seen it look like this, and I don't have that many Speed Dials to refresh.

RE: Opera Mini 7.6.2 on AndroidOpera Mini
Just responded to update message on my Motorola Droid X2 (Android 2.3.5), to go from Mini 7.6.35xxx to 7.6.4xxx. Totally messed up! Display content on sites will not render. Tried uninstalling then complete reinstall from Play Store - no improvement. C'mon guys; gotta do better than this.
