OM on SGH-i620 (non-touchscreen) shows touchscreen interface
As proposed by user dmarks here I am starting a new thread to let the opera mini development team know about a problem with opera mini 5 java on the Samsung SGH-i620: I seem to get the touchscreen interface instead of the non-touchscreen interface - at least I can't press the accept button without using a VNC client on the phone, and when entering the address line I get a virtual keyboard (but the phone has a hardware QWERTY keyboard).UA with Internet Explorer Mobile is: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows CE; IEMobile 6.12) SEC-SGHI620/1.0
I suspect that the JVM on your device was designed for touchscreen devices and therefore reports to Opera Mini that it supports pointer events.
Please try installing our MKey debug MIDlet from http://m.opera.com/mkey and report back the output it gives when first started.

...as you expected. Strange thing is that OM 4 worked fine. Well, seems like I'll have to get another MIDlet manager that's made for the smartphone...
It's not so strange that Opera Mini 4 works, actually. That browser was designed for non-touchscreen devices and is always operable with a keypad. Opera Mini 5, however, distinguishes between touchscreen and non-touchscreen interfaces with the former not being operable without a touchscreen.
I concur with the previous comment that you should try Opera Mini 5 beta for Windows Mobile. It's a native application that most likely will work much better in this respect on your device.

I would like to, but as you correctly point out here on Samsung phones the keyboard is not correctly supported. Still hoping and waiting for the final of OM5-WM to solve that problem.
Until then it looks like it's back OM4 for me. Thanks anyway!
