Opera Mini : General, Installation & Settings

October 9, 2008

General

Opera Mini is a fast and compact Web browser that allows you to access the Internet on your phone. By downloading the free Opera Mini, you can use your cell phone to access Web sites and content, including your mail, community sites, news, blogs and more.

You must have a phone with an Internet connection that is also capable of running Java mobile applications — most phones made after 2001 fulfill these requirements. In addition, the Opera Mini download process will tell you if your phone is known to work.

Installation

There are three download methods available to install Opera Mini on your phone: SMS (via phone text message), WAP (downloading using your existing mobile Web browser) and PC (computer) download.

Settings

To be able to connect Opera Mini to the Internet, your phone needs proper settings. In general, there are two different settings:

  • GPRS/WAP
  • Internet

Opera Mini usually needs the Internet setting, and to use the Internet APN.

How do Enter APN Internet setting on my Nokia Series 40 phone ?
Starting from the point where you have already downloaded and installed Opera Mini, but you are unable to load pages:

  • Go into Settings Menu.
  • Go into Configuration.
  • Go into Personal Configuration Settings.
  • Now, press Add New (visible if you don’t have a previous Personal Setting created) or press the Options button. When you have pressed the Options button, choose Add new.
  • When you have pressed Add New, you will get a new menu, which will give several options to choose from.
  • Now, scroll down and choose the Access Point and press Select. (Please note that this option is not available on the Nokia 3220 model and maybe on some more models, you can instead use the Services option instead of the Access Point option on the Nokia 3220.) Do not choose the Web option, since this will not work with Opera mini.
  • Now go into Access Point Settings.
  • Go into Bearer Settings.
  • Go into Packet Data Access Point.
  • Now, enter you APN address corresponding to your provider. Then press OK.
  • Go back to the Personal Configurations Settings menu, where you now should be able to see an Access Point selected.
  • Now press the Options button, and then choose to activate this Access Point.
  • Now you should be able to start Opera Mini, and try to load a link on your phone.

If you are still having problems with your Nokia S40 2.0 model of phone, please make sure that you have entered all the required information into the APN setting concerning proxy, user name, password, port etc.
