    Well, sir i was able to use my moms computer to do the steps, but when i go to download the file from my dropbox account, my phone tells my "forbidden", and then exits. I also tryed to use mini commander but it asks me like a million times " Untrused Midlet, This app accesses data on your phone, continue?", and thats it, dosnt let me in. My phone is the LG 840G from tracefone, Please help.
    Thanks
    • Here are a few things to try:

      1. Be sure that the jad file is in your Dropbox Public folder.
      2. If that doesn't fix it try copying the .jad and .jar files to the phone's memory card and than use the phone's file manager (called "My Folders" or something similar) to go to the Memory Card. Tap the .jad file and it should install

      If you are still having problems paste the link to your .jad file on Dropbox into a comment here and I'll take a look at it.

    I was able to successfully install Opera Mini7.1. Thanks!
  6. Burt says:
    I modified the mini44.jad file as you described, uploaded to Dropbox, but am having trouble installing the new file. Do I first delete the opera-mini jar file that currently shows in file manager? As I tried to install it, I got the error message "forbidden". Wondering what the next step is after I have the jad file on my phone? I have an LG840G phone and am trying to install Opera Mini 4.4
    Thanks!
  7. David Howard says:
    Will it work on other games because i tried and it was in asian characters when I opened the file. I'm not sure if that is the reason it didn't work but if you know anything reply please

  9. John Berninger says:
    This worked for my LG 840 G. Thank you very much!
  10. Fezile says:
    Samsung users
    If your phone says 'java error' or 'unable to launch java game' ,use this code:
    *#52828378#
    *#javatest#

    Try increasing the memory
  11. Larry Phillips says:
    Thanks for the modified operamini. I downloaded the min71.jad but I get an "invalid descriptor" on my LG840g when I attempt to install it. Any ideas what is happening?
    • I don't have that phone but several other people have said it works on their LG 840G phones.

      Is your phone activated? I'm not sure about the LG 840G, but on some Tracfone's downloading apps using WiFi doesn't work on un-activated phones.
    • Larry Phillips says:
      It's activated. Everything works on wifi or 3G. Even operamini 7.1 works. Just don't like the big virtual keypad.
    • Strange that it works for others with the same phone but not for you. Everyone else seems to be installing by typing http://is.gd/mini71 into the phone's built in browser. Is that what you are doing?

      Your mention of mini71.jad and "downloading" and then installing makes me think you are doing something else.

      Also, if you already have Opera Mini installed, try removing it first before you try to install this one.
    • Larry Phillips says:
      I ensured that the previous veriosn of operamini was deleted before installing the .jad. I installed by downloading the .jad file from the site you mention, and then copying it to the phone's external memory. That resulted in having the virtual keypad. However, I just deleted operamini again and tried the procedure you describe below. Success! Thanks for your help and the .jad!
  12. bayu says:
    yes TTPOD 1.70 work on my phone, here i post the file, i was forget where i got it
    after i modified the jad, i tried install, but now it say "java error,value too large"

    https://dl.dropbox.com/s/vtchacnt5xkfrnd/ttpod-j2me-v1-70.jar?dl=1
    https://dl.dropbox.com/s/jtgd74lsnhefttc/ttpod-j2me-v1-70.jad?dl=1
    • I think the problem is that your jad has extra newlines and spaces in a couple of the lines.

      MIDlet-Permissions-Opt: javax.microedition.io.Connector.http,javax.mic
      roedition.io.PushRegistry,javax.microedition.io.Connector.sms,javax.w
      ireless.messaging.sms.send
      MIDlet-Permissions: javax.microedition.io.Connector.file.write,javax.m
      icroedition.io.Connector.file.read

      I joined the lines together and it seems to work. My fixed .jad is here: http://is.gd/ttpodOK
  13. bayu says:
    i has sucsesto install opera mini with file you posted..sorry if my question out from the topic,different case, i tried to remove virtual keypad in TTPOD 1.7, and it say error illegal argument..hope you can help me
    • Does the unmodified TTPOD 1.7 work on your phone? If it does than the modified one will tooo provided you made the modifications correctly. Double check your work be sure you didn't make any mistakes.

      Also search the .jad file for a line that starts with "MIDlet-Jar-URL: " It should be followed by the full URL to the TTPOD jar file online starting with http:// or https:// If there isn't a full path you need to upload the jar to your Dropbox public folder and put the Dropbox public url there. i.e., MIDlet-Jar-URL: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/??????/TTPOD.jar
  14. bayu says:
    my phone is samsung c3312, it has 240x320 screen resolution, what should i do?
    • The Samsung GT-C3312 Champ Deluxe is supported by Opera. You should be able to download it directly from http://m.opera.com Download it using the phone's built in browser so that the phone model is recognized and Opera sends you a version modified to remove the virtual keyboard.
  15. bayu says:
    it say
    'java error, illegal argument'
  16. VIKRANT BHATT says:
    sir recently i have used ur method to remove virtual keypad in opera mini 7.1 and glad to say that it works nice .I heartly thankful to you.
  17. bayu says:
    hello dennis, can you help me to hide virtual keypad on TTpod, i using samsung c3312. i tried to edit, but it failed to install.thanks
  18. arup says:
    plz add opera mini 3.2 version with touch for samsung phone.
    • Opera Mini is no longer supported by Opera. There are lots of server side bugs (cookie problems, most login forms are brokenetc.). Any touchscrren phone should be modern enough and powerful enough to run Opera Mini 4.4. I'm not wasting my time to modify Opera Mini 3.2 for you. If you really want it the instructions are in the post.
  19. arup says:
    but denis i want install many opera mini with various in my phone. So what i do now. Plz help me.
  20. arup says:

  23. moha says:
    in samsung phone when i updated any app with newer version then the app data of previous version does not remain in newer version. Nokia's phones can do it. IS there any solution?
  24. mohan says:
    plz give only thwate or verisign certificate signed version of opera mini 6.5 plz sir help me.
    • I'm sorry but I don't have the time to do every possible version Opera Mini with every certificate type. The Opera Mini 6.5 and 7.0 on this page have both Verisign and Thwate certificates. Oprea Mini 4.4 on this page is Verisign only. If those don't work for you there are instructions here showing you how to create your own .

  33. mani says:
    Thank you for your response.I forgot to say that I was using opera mini 4.4 because it was not working without touch in opera mini 7.Opera mini 7 does not allow me to use it without touch.Inline editing does not work without onscreen keyboard,which is too small on a 2.4 inch touchscreen.I want to use opera mini 7 without touch version.It just forces me to use touch version.I want opera mini 7 to look like it is on Nokia c3 or Nokia x2-01.
    • There's a setting for the Opera keyboard in Opera Mini 7's Settings > Advanced menu. Set to "Never" and you should be able to use the phone's hardware keyboard everywhere.

      With the hardware keyboard active inline editing isn't possible as Opera uses the device's input method. That's not something the user can change.

      It's also not possible to force Opera Mini 7 to use its non-touch UI on touch devices.

      To get rid of the bottom navigation bar in Opera Mini 7 select "Full screen" in the settings menu.
  34. mani says:
    Sorry,But my problem is little bit different.I have an alcatel ot 813d touch and type.It has a navigation d-pad,so I don't need to touch the screen for navigation.But opera itself configures mini for touch.So I am unable to use it without touch.I want to remove that navigation bar of opera(yes that of opera)My phone does not show its own bar,as shown in left picture,as it is not full touch.I want to tell opera mini that this is not a touch phone.I want it to look like it looks on nokia c3 or x2-01.Please,help me on that thing.I am using opera mini 4.4 now.
    • Opera Mini 4.4 doesn't have a navigation bar of its own, just narrow black bars at the top showing the page title and at the bottom showing the soft key labels. If you are seeing a bottom bar with left and right arrows it's coming from the phone. If the modified jad file on this page doesn't remove it perhaps Alcatel phones require a different .jad file attribute to remove the navigation or don't support removing it.
  35. sanal says:
    Sir, that fix you suggested was for a previous version of champ, mind is C3330, the code to start my phones java test is different which I dunno.
    can you please somehow solve the issue am facing:-(
  36. sanal says:
    mine is samsung champ GT-C3330
  37. sanal says:
    and my phone supports opera 7 as well which is already installed!
  38. sanal says:
    i even tried with 4.4, still it shows the same error. Am able to instal UC browser though!
  39. sanal says:
    sir, it shows java error. content size too large, i could well instal UC BROWSER to my phone but opera doesn seem to work? i tried modifying myself but again it gives the same error!!!!
  40. Thayion says:
    Awesome Dennis! Thank you! It works very well, exactly what I was looking for. Can you plz mod a UC8.x also (no Nav + Land)? Ill post this good stuff on a few forums I know of for the Xpression. Thanks a ton!
  41. Thayion says:
    Directed my LG Xpression C395 at the pre-modded Mini7.jad dropbox link and did indeed Download it with no problem from the link. However, the navigation bar remains? Looks the same as what i had by default. Works the same too. Seems the mod just did not do anything to the app.

    Any way i can remove the virtual nav bar from my LG Xperssion while useing Mini7?
    • Thayion says:
      Also a Landscape Mod for UCBrowser would be awsome for my phone (LG Xpression)! If these work would it b ok to share the links/info on some other forums/sites?

      the Xpression is very new and i know it would help many people. Thanks!
    • I don't have an LG phone to test with but I added a couple of LG specific commands to the jad file:
      LGE-MIDlet-Width: 240
      LGE-MIDlet-Height: 400

      I also added commands that are supposed to enable landscape and auto rotation:
      MIDlet-ScreenMode: ROTATE
      MIDlet-Landscape-Support: true

      The modified jad is at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4637247/mini7lg.jad shortlink: http://is.gd/mini7lg

      Let me know if it works and if it does I'll do the same for the UC Browser
  42. Rajat Gupta says:
    I m using samsung champ deluxe please modify any opera mini for this phone
    • As far a sI know the ones I posted should work on any phone that can run Opera Mini 6.5 or 7.0. If you phone can't what versions of Opera Mini does it run?
  43. Kuldeep says:
    But I was able to download UC Browser 8.3 from your blog. Then what's the problem?
    • Possible reasons why the modified Opera Mini doesn't work include:

      1. You already have a unsigned version of Opera Mini, or one signed by a different signing authority installed and your phone's platform security is blocking the installation.
      Fix this by uninstalling the old version before installing the new.

      2. You phone doesn't support the all certificates version of Opera Mini which I used to create the modified version.
      Solution: Try all 4 versions of Opera Mini 7 (All Certificates, Thawte, Verisign, No Certificate) from http://m.opera.com and tell me which one works and I'll create a modified one for you.

      3. Your operator blocks jar down loads from dropbox.com.
      Possible solution: download one of the jad files and corresponding jar (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4637247/mini65.jar) or http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4637247/mini7.jar)
      to a PC. Copy the jad and jar to your phone's memory card and click on the jad using the phone's file manager)

      4. Your phone doesn't support any version of Opera Mini 7 or 6.5.
      There's no solution to this.
  44. Kuldeep says:
    I was unable to download both opera mini 6.5 and 7.0 touch screen versions from your site. Because it says that Java error. Can you please fix it? My phone model is Samsung GT-3330. Because of the smaller screen I am unable to see the big pages. Please fix it as early as possible.
    • Sorry it doesn't work for you. If you have Opera Mini already installed try uninstalling it first before installing these versions. If that doesn't work it's likely that your phone doesn't support the signatures that Opera uses.

      This solution only works on phones that support Opera's signatures. If you search with Google there are lot's of modified jar files on other sites that remove the virtual keyboard. They are unsigned and should work on your phone.
  45. Fireman_bob says:
    Thank you very much! I've been looking for this fix since I got my phone (Samsung T528G). I'm going to post a link to this page on my forum question about his issue.

  48. jessie says:
    hello there,im wondering if opera for touch screen phone can also be used for keypad phone?i've wanted those navigation bar on the lower part of the screen,im using keypad phöne.
    • There's only one version of Opera Mini which uses a different user interface on touch screen and non-touchscreen phones. There's no way to force the touch UI to be server on non-touch devices. It wouldn't work anyway as most of the touch buttons can't be trigger by a key press.
