Opera Mini currently comes in Ver. 3 flavor for all Blackberry Devices, except the 8300 Model (CURVE). However fear not my friends, Curve users can download the brand new Beta 2 version of the Mobile Browsing software. I have been testing Beta 2 for the past week and simply put… IT ROCKS THE KAZBAH!


Instructions: How to Download

Point your phone browser to mini.opera.com/beta

Click "Download Opera Mini"

Follow the simple setup steps on your phone

Optionally, you may download the Opera Mini 4 beta for Palm or Blackberry devices for a manual installation.

If you do not follow these instructions, launching Opera Mini will simply end in an error screen. To activate Opera Mini as a Browser you must change your Blackberry’s TCP settings. Here’s how.

  1. Go to Options > Advanced Settings > TCP
  2. The screen will look like this
    APN
    Username for APN

    APN wap.voicestream.com
    Username for APN
    Password for APN
  4. Leave Username & Password blank
  5. Click Menu > Save
  6. Relaunch Opera Mini.
  7. Surf to your hearts content.

Note: These are the settings if you are a T-Mobile customer with a Data Plan. Check for your Service Provider’s settings using the opera.com Settings Help Page
