Does the text input fix also include S60 3rd Edition ?
Any idea when feed detection will be back ?

What do you mean by "silent update"?
How we can get it?
It it going to show in Itunes as an update or do we need to download the app again?

A silent release is one which caters for small bug fixes and does not incorporate any major changes. I am not sure about iPhone availability though.

Can anybody confirm if this is 5.0.19693 ? I need to download it seperately and then rename in order to keep Mini 4.2 to save my feeds.

The one on my iphone is 5.0.0198!

Is it 5.0.18635 for SymbianS60v5 (lang. - RU) ?
I got this update some days ago.
Main disadvantage is google search by default, and can't switch back to Yandex (as it was in prev.).
Also speeddial for myopera and facebook added. What's the reason for it? is it bug fix
Pls, chk & correct this

Its 5,0,19693 int eng. i just updated from 5,0,18*** its preserved all my data up to saved password, history nice

Please reinstate "* + 0" (<start + zero>) shortcut for feeds, as in Opera Mini 4, or a link to feeds on the speeddial. It is awkward to always access it via "# + 5" and <enter>.

@marianh When will feed detection be back ? Is this intentionally disabled ?

@marianh Should I update manually to 5,0,19693 RU
or wait for silent autoupdate, as it was 2 times before (1st time I silently;) got "MTS version", second - this with google search)

than you very much opera now finally i have updated from beta to 5 final after you fixed rtl bug i am really happy .every thing works 100/100 .continue to impress us and good luck

Thanks opera mini team,just updated to the silent release,everythings working great on my lg ks360,opera mini 5 is super cool,the only bug i'm experiencing is inline edit isn't working,thanks:))

Still doesn't fix the bug on my Storm 2: After I submit text and the virtual keyboard hides, the screen space the keyboard took up doesn't get reclaimed until I rotate my BB. After a rotation (or more usually a rotation and back), everything is fine.

Not a deal breaker, but still annoying.

(Blackberry Storm 2 v5.0.0.607 on VZW, running OM v5.0.19692 from this latest download)

Thanks for the update.
This finally fix my initial bugs with Opera Mini 5.
- I can now activate Opera Link.
- Manually entering addresses work
- Search engines synchronization in working correctly.

thanks mini team

I have one small complaint. In the final version of Opera mini 5.0, while using installed search engines it is not possible to use full page edit along with scroll function to select the search engine. Most of the keywords one searches for are common english words that can be easily typed using T9 dictionary mode.

So, currently I have to change the settings to turn off full screen edit to select the search engine, then again manually select "full screen edit". This is much more cumbersome than the arrangement in 5.0 beta 2 version.

Apart from this minor inconvenience, Opera mini 5.0 is excellent to use, and for that I congratulate & thank the Opera team.

As with all the other builds of 5.0 I can't input text either way, it disappears when I submit.

Support for marathi!! yay! good going opera.

@marianh It's been fixed, thanks. However, I notice a bit sluggishness ( more than previous level ) when checking the address of a loaded page ( N95, S60 3rd Edition ).
Is there any way feed synchronization could be brought between 4.2 and 5 ? I guess this is not impossible given that synchronization happens as usual between two 4.2 versions ?

Thanks OM team!
But I have problem downloading this version on my n82,when click on download it says invalid jar file!
Please help

RTL i cant belive

Yeah, i know some wld suggest we replace a speed dial, but i wish u knew the pain it causes my opera 10 desktop browser. Endless relooping when synced with opera.

Download the yandex campaign version then.

If you keep your current client, you should be switched back to Yandex as default with our next server update.

I presume that is fixed now. Related with Google classic, search term is not in the middle of the box now beside some layout issues.

Download manager isn't improved yet

Um... For some reason the Opera Mini Blog is throwing out "Internal Server Error" when I try viewing it in Mini 5. It happens always no matter if Mobile view is on or not. Is it just me? I'm using Sony Ericsson w580i (AT&T branded).

Are you ever going to bring back the ability to view my desktop bookmarks with Opera Link?

Gee, Mart... That works for me. Of course, I can't post in 5.0, either.

Time out for me via feeds, mobile and desktop view.

Still can't input text on most forums , still reloads blanks . Given up on 5 now using 4.2 on a SE W705 .

@Dennis : well, PC bookmarks in Mini 4 can be accessed by the More Bookmarks link on the bookmarks page. Mini 5 doesn't - even though I'm permanently logged in to Opera Link via the menu, it still makes me login again when I go to link.opera.com to get at the rest of the bookmarks. I miss Mini 4's way
Of course, the issue whereby with Full-Screen Edit enabled I can't select another search engine is still a deal-breaker for me. The Opera Link issue, and the lack of the old 'feeds' and 'zoom to end of page' shortcuts - I put up with that.

When using mobile view on the latest update it is impossible to view the bottom of pages with lists of options/data.

To view them you need to switch to full screen mode and that makes it hard to copy and paste information

I can't launch it on my Samsung Jet S80000B. It was working fine until the update.

Samsung Jet s8000 can't even load this version. +1

Works again since My Opera release (Kahlua).

Glad of the update but there's a bug with folding lists of items into [+] in mobile view: e.g. viewing my tags on delicious.com clicking [+] unpacks only the first 4 items - there are many more I can only see by switching to desktop view...

Type config: into the url box. From there you can turn off the folding lists. I turned them off--you can see all the links in Mobile View.

@Ngamer01 thanks- it's being looked in to now.

For those with text input problems, I'll poke around to get a better answer for you. I posted this using mini 5 (assuming this post actually shows up ).

I see this most often with vBulletin forum software. Also, in form fields that perform some JavaScript validation, the page reloads without the previously input text.

scottb - thanks for the 'config:' tip - it never ocurred to me to try that despite the desktop version of Opera working that way! Problem solved...

Still wrong bitmap support for Myanmar/Burmese unicode. Page sample: http://www.xenotypetech.com/samplepdfs/MM_Sample.html . No floral speech for this language

Any news on when the scrolling problems for the blsckberry bold 9700 will be fixed ? Scrolling with the trackpad makes it pretty much impossible to click any link.

Is this even a known problem ? :-)

i think this common and very old bugs that need to fix immediately: Still can't input text on most
forums , still reloads blanks.

There are 2 bugs that make this unusable.

1) text input on vBulletin sites or in text fields that seem to employ some java scripting. Several posters commented on this. It started for me sometime after 5 went official. Maybe with a silent update because I didn't think my version changed and it started happening all of a sudden.

2) screen not resizing when virtual keyboard drops on the storm. Once you enter text and the v keyboard goes away the screen stays crunched up as if the key board was still there. You have to change the device orientation to get it back.

If you could resolve these 2 I would love Opera again. The text input is the biggest issue.

Thanks!

An ergonomic irritation: using my Sony Ericsson - on web pages 'back' is the phone's [back/undo] button. When I'm in the Opera top bar/menu getting 'back to the web page' is not the [back/undo] button (which does nothing) but the right hand hardware button. This is non-intuitive and I keep stabbing at the intuitive [back/undo] button feeling frustrated!

i cant open my prev saved pages nor save new

i updated from 5.0.18741 to 19693 all my data were all preserved history, bookmark, password and saved pages but this 19693 wount open my previous saved pages nor save new one, as it says faild to save page or the page. The igbo version do same thing and its not displaying time.

Operamini still the best in my opinion compared to other browsers, including Opera Mobile. I really hope the availability of 'copy link address' feature on the next release.

Can't you copy the link address with 'click-and-hold'?

Click & hold just copy text, not copy text contained link address bro.i hope u understand what i mean.
Opmin 5.0.19693 could reload saved pages automatically in my 5320i but still has bug, occasionally submitted text disappeared after reloading page .

Press #8 and turn off vittual effect

My opera mini 5 sometimes closes on its own when I load large webpages or when I operates it at a east rate as I does with opera mini 4, guys what is the way out?

Khmer language can not support in Nokia N81.
