Opera mini hack with Google search

Posted by mobile phone:

Since I quit freelancing and got job my free time decreased exponentially. I am no time management expert but nature teached me. Lately I don't even power on my computer when I get back from work but instead I started to use me E61 to it's full potential - daily tasks, unix/linux administration.. I'm even writing this post while getting back from work (in the tube).

As I spend a litle more than an hour on my way to and back from work I found Opera mini to be a life saver. Actually, I'm not using the official Opera mini but a hack of 2.0 version which still has Google search.
When Opera switched to Yahoo! search I tried to get used to it for a week and then didn't use Mini for web searching anymore.
This hack I'm using has a lot of features injected in it like copy/paste support, file manager, offline webpage save/load - this is especially usefull to me while in the tube, screen rotation, direct download, advanced alternative cache which can be saved on disk rather than phone memory, multi-page browsing (tan like), find in page and many other killer features. Also, it highly tweakable with an impressive number of parameters that you can play with. On top of this a litle hack in the .jar will let you have both Opera Mini 3 and the hack installed (and even running) in the same time.

In short this is a must have for any moblogger (did I told you I started a moblog? I'm really enjoying it?)

I attached some screenshots to tease you even more.

Go get it at http://opera-mini.ru/index.php ! Use Babelfish or Google Translate to figure out your way thru the site. There is somewhere an english version. If you experience any problems get back here and ask for help.


LATER UPDATE:
For Opera Mini mod 1.25 check-out this links (try the .jad on your phone):
http://opera-mini.ru/maker/dnld/opera1180640772.jar
http://opera-mini.ru/maker/dnld/opera1180640772.jad

For Opera Mini 2.00 mod you'll have to wait a litle to get it out of my phone and upload it somewhere - as usual, I'm posting from mobile and it's a litle difficult to upload it right now.

I just can't wait for the english translation of the latest mod.

Which one is english? None of them is clearly marked. And one more thing: do they work on SE P990?

Daniel said...

Yes, it works on P990i. I just gave it a try on one.
The site where Opera Mini is located seems to have changed since my last visit. The current version on there it's newer but it seems to lack for the moment the english language version.
I'll post the jar here if anyone it's interested.

Yes, I am interested. I can't understand a damn thing with the last version :)

Hello,

Just like these Russians I want to customize an Opera installation file (although in a less sophisticated way).

This are some of the changes I would really like to have in the installation file:

- Other bookmarks in speed-dial
- Mobile view is activated
- Opera Mini is default browser

Does someone know how to create such an installation file?

Would be really thankful for help!
