Guest Pudgy Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 (edited) Does anyone know how to get opera mobile 8 to automatically connect? Everytime i start the program for the first time and try to access a website it first asks me "Connect to the Internet?" I'd like to be able to just load the program and access the 'net without it asking me if i want to. I know it's a little bit of nitpicking, but thats what this forum is for. I mean PIE will start and access whatever page I want without asking me if i want to connect to it. (even though PIE absolutely sucks!) So why can't Opera Mobile 8 do it too??? I've looked at the opera.ini file and have tried to make some changes but no dice. The only thing that i've been able to accomplish by tweaking the opera.ini file is to get scrollbars on the side. Any help would be great!! Edited November 29, 2006 by Pudgy

Any help would be great!! Change Connect GPRS=1 to Connect GPRS=0 in the Opera.ini file. Opera will no longer ask to connect to the internet when starting up.

Guest Pudgy Posted January 10, 2007 Report Posted January 10, 2007 (edited) Hmmmm. i changed the GPRS setting to "0" and i don't get the prompt, but now after i get the "g" indicating that the grps is on, once i type in a web address or select a bookmark to go to, i get a network problem error. any suggestions??? Also i noticed that if i already have a GPRS connection established,,such as opening PIE first, then going to opera, i dont get the error. So it seems as though by changing the GPRS setting to "0", it doesnt open a GPRS connection. which is why i think it is getting a network problem error. But if another program has already opened up a GPRS connection, Opera understands that there is already a connection established and connects fine. So i guess, back to the drawing board BTW....if anyone would like to know that version of opera i'm running. It's opera 8.0 build 1557, and i'm running it on a T-mobile SDA (USA) using an i-mate sp5m rom Edited January 10, 2007 by Pudgy
