On my LG u8120 Operamini4 does not work. I’ve tried using this ‘workaround’ but it doesn’t help. Every now and then, the program freezes and I’m forced to exit using the red ‘drop phone’ button. Naturally, this causes the app to re-install.
Often it fails to re-install and I’m forced to download it again. Even if it does re-install, the check marks in the settings menu and on websites are not visible so you can only guess what they’ve been set to.
All in all, this make Operamini4 un-useable on my phone so I use only Operamini3.

Rogue, try loading at least one webpage before closing Opera Mini. I used to use that trick until I downloaded a new build of Opera Mini.

Actually, that’s the only way I ever close OM, and yet it still allmost allways re-installs. And I don’t think it’s an RMS isse since the history, cookies, etc. are still there just like I left them.
