Which browser does the S740 have?
If it is Opera or IE6 - has anyone ported it?
Best regards

Rose have IE.
I installed Opera, too, and working without any problem.
Hi _vlada_ ..
Which Opera did you install ?
I used to have a Touch Diamond, but just switched back to my i200 instead, because i prefer a keyboard, but i need a better browser..

Well, latest from Opera website : ) 8.65
hello, i was using opera the latest version from the website. the only problem, i don't like this peace of software. Now i'm using SKYFIRE and it's working perfect, and faster. so my opinion, use Skyfire, search one Google, on you're phone and you will find it.
I'm using Opera Mini v4.2 and it works just fine
Faster than IE, and navigation is easier aswell!
Another one - "Torch Mobile’s Iris browser" - most standards-compliant mobile browser. Well at least so they say. I haven't tried it myself.

Skyfire
I can also recommend to try SkyFire, because this browser support flash and Silverlight. I was testing it at www.dartfish.tv - first animation is flash, click at some videos - they are using Silverlight
Try this one: Opera Mobile 10 Keypad

works like a charm
cheers
Best Browser
Opera Mini is probably the easiest to use that i have tried out. Does anyone know if i signed up for Skyfire for my shadow, will i have to sign up again and wait again since i use a touch dual?
I use opera 9.51beta1 and I think is awesome.
Almost everything works great, pages looks EXACTLY like on PC, even with very complicated AJAX interface.
Bank accounts works very good too - I can make money transfers that must be confirmed with sms-code
and the most powerful tool - downloads from rapidshare with no problems
Opera 9.5 here and I will never go back.
Ever.
Without a doubt: Opera mobile 9.5 beta1. Opera mini is good, but only for device who can't handle Opera mobile9.5 beta 1.
just a little question... how do you get opera mini working on port 80/443 only data plan? i can´t get it to connect
opera mini is now my favourite browser best app ever handles pages so fast!!
I have the phang manilla rom and it rocks, i just think IE browser blows since it has no touch capabilities with scrolling.
What is the best free browser that allows thumb movement and zoom
THANKS!!!!

Opera 9.5 Build 1938 works like a charm on my hermes.
Haven't tried the latest build yet.....

Noobs.... So many seem to have a pathological fear of using the search function.
Skyfire is also an excellent browser, especially when it comes to proper Flash support.
Just saw it from opera. Administrator pls delete if someone already post it. (i searched and it is no)

the link above doesn't work.
I'm very disapointed... Check out how it formats the pages, looks like crap compared to 9.5... I've tried many sites and they all look so much better in 9.5. I was really hoping they would have fixed this since the 9.7 beta...
The UI feels nothing new since I've been using Opera Mini 5 since it was released... This looks very much the same...
still no flash support.
support QVGA?

I think we have to wait for adobe to release the full flash 10.1 for mobiles...
works well in elfin thanks
Doesn´t work on my Touch HD. It starts, but then it stopps saying on the top bar Opera Mobile 10 beta and i can´t press any button and no page is coming up. Thought it would make some autoconfiguration for the first time, but even after 5 minutes nothing happens. Ok it´s stil beta, but shouldn´t it at least start?
It's work fine on my hd!
At the first time you must start it from start menu, so it complete the setup process with the aknowledgement, after you can use from internet tab!
Someone use landscape mode, i didn't find it...
Bookmarks ?
Hello,
how can i import older Bookmark in Opera 10 ?
Rename the opera6.adr in anyone else or something?

Sorry for my bad english...
Damn no flash support still up till now
Oh I thought they have flash support this time. but otherwise they have done a good job.
Am I the only one who thinks the official 9.7 beta was better???
It used the accelerometer on my Diamond and had really cool animation effects when tilting the device into landscape and other stuff....
Is there a way to enable accelerometer in Opera 10???
Also is this version not opengl accelerated like 9.7 was, besides the new "improved" UI I think this version is a step back from 9.7.
I don`t know some peoples already say about the new Opera 10 its nothing more than all other versions but i don`t think so.
1st when i install on my HD this beta i saw its much more faster than the 9.7 or 9.5 Also the view of the pages is much more better and clear and all the menus of the opera are just fast and awsome.
On the same time i just test for how long will load a page.
For example i choice a random page and i use Opera 9.5 then use Opera 10 for the same page in the same internet connection and i can say that this 10 BETA is minimum 3 times faster than the old Opera.
The Only bad things is that still not have a full Flash support but soon this will be fixed and then we will have a awsome fast beauty Browser for our devices
Maybe depends from ROM`s or....
If this matter im with NRG ROM from the signature.
I really don't like the single touch zooming, how annoying is that everytime I click a link it zoomes in and I have to zoom out again...
don't know if this is a good development, it is defenately quick, but it lacks in quite a few things.

Compare it to Opera mobile 9.5 and you will see that 9.5 shows the pages exactly as they look on the PC in overview mode... Opera 10 makes the sites look bad since it wraps the columns in overview before you've zoomed in. I can't stand using this browser until they've fixed this issue.
The turbo mode on 10 is a lot slower than the turbo mode in opera mini 5 beta. Very disappointed, as most times I don't care for perfect rendering...just want to be able to read what I want to read quickly.
I'll continue to use mini as my main browser, as it also uses a lot less memory. 10 is nice if I need to do some "real" web browsing though.
Is anyone else missing Opera link, it was great for Mini, but still not on 9.5-9.7-10, saw somewhere that it was not included on 9.7 as it was a beta, but if all they release is beta's then its never gonna happen (
...
Any way, how to set Zoom more then 200%? Google reader text quite small on my Diamond.
Hi, Where does opera 10 install itself. I would really like to try it out but i do not want it to touch any of my opera 9.5 files in any way.
Hi guys is there any alternative to IE for the Rose ?
I used opera for my old HTC TyTN II and the touch interface was fantastic is there a version of opera available for free for the Rose ? Or is there a better browser ?
Best?
Hard to define that. For most intents and purposes, Opera Mini 5 Beta works and is my most used browser. However, if you want to load any site which contains any amount of heavy lifting via Javascript you'd be best to look elsewhere.
My secondary browser is usually IE for mobile optimised (but not designed for iPhone) sites.
And thirdly, the next third party browser I have installed and don't really mind too much (however is no discontinued) is Torch Mobile Iris Browser (v.1.1.9). If you look around hard enough, you may still be able to find a copy of it hosted somewhere.
Skyfire works great, and can also use flash-sites like youtube

And redtube and youporn
What I do is use the default browser for looking up info quickly, like football scores etc and then use SkyFire if you want something that does a bit more.

The best browser HTC S740 are:
1-SkyFire (<--this is rhe best for replace IE)
2-Opera Mini (java)
3-Opera Mobile (only buy)
bye bye
Sometimes I feel like its just as bad as the stock web. But I do like the copy and paste in Dolphin HD.
The opera browser is smoother than the stock browser.
yeah dolphin sucks! i'm thinking of trying the firefox browser
yeah firefox is a good browser u should also take a look at skyfire great browser
Is there a google chrome one out yet?
I liked skyfire, but I dont like all those random buttons at the bottom of the screen. I wish there was a google chrome one
Have you tried dolphin mini?
Miren browser is the best one I've found.
Sent from my rough sketch of a Vibrant on a brick.
Xscope is pretty good too. Seems to be nice and smooth for me.
Miren keeps opening up new tabs every time I open my web browser. I noticed I had like 12 tabs of the same screen :/

It helps if you mention which ROM you are using to recommend a good browser, I will report experiences running Froyo.uvka6.
I use 4 different browsers on my phone, each for specific purposes.
For most sites I use either Miren or Dolphin HD 2.3.0 (it's an old version but it's not laggy like 3.x & 4.x). Miren has copy paste too. When I want to view Flash-based sites I use Dolphin (standard, not HD):
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mgeek.android.DolphinBrowser.Browser&feature=search_result
It's not as feature packed as HD or Mini but Flash videos play super smooth on this browser, probably due to low overhead.
Opera Mobile is kinda quirky, some sites still won't dislay properly (just like the desktop version) and flash support is limited to ads. There is one feature in that Opera Mobile surpasses all android browsers: The ability to download from file hosting sites such as filesonic, fileserve, mediafire, etc. that simply won't work with other android browsers. It's why I keep it on my phone, when I need to download Opera Mobile is the man!
I'm not a big fan of proxy-based browsers such as Skyfire or Opera Mini. My biggest beef with Skyfire is on certain sites like ESPN.COM you can't choose which video to play, it will only play the first video on that site!! Grrrrrrr!!!!!! I don't like the GUI either. Skyfire is worthless if you are running Android 2.2 or higher since flash is built-in. If you are running Android 2.1 or lower and want flash then your only choice is Skyfire.
Firefox is currently RC but sloowww and no flash support but so far the only android browser to support scrollbars.
There are a few others out there (xScope, Maxthon, UCWEB, Infinity, Boat). I'm going to give the same advice I always give. Try them all and decide which one you like best. All browsers have their pros and cons but it all comes down to personal preference.

That never happened to me but I did experience a few force closes with the latest builds so I went back to 6.0.5. It takes longer to load but is more stable than new builds.
I really love the opera mobile browser, its pretty smooth and faster than stock.
Lifehacker did a comparison of some mobile browsers recently:

(Can't post outside links yet, just remove the spaces)
I like Miren Browser.
