Opera Mini 3.1
Some users prefer this older version of Opera Mini on iDEN phones. Compared with Opera Mini 4.2, it loads faster, the UI is a little snappier and it has an iDEN compatible photo upload feature that 4.2 lacks. This is the “high memory” version with Speed Dial shortcuts and HTTPS support.
Type: Freeware
Vendor: Opera Software – Product Page,Online Help, Forum
Data Connection Required: Yes
Supported iDEN phones: All Falcon Series with Java (i776, i465, i290, etc). Not for the i9 and i856 (Zeus Series), use this version instead.
Downloading uses paid data. Downloads are for Java ME phones only.

I have an i856 which opera mini should will work best
I think say 4.2 is the best for any Boost IDEN phone. 5.0 has some nice features but lots of issues on the i856.
does this work for i570? Keep getting error on flash download
Yes Opera 3.1 (and 4.2) should work on an i570. If you get an error during the install while it’s “allocating flash” or “writing flash” it means that you don’t have enough space on the phone to install. Uninstall one or more other apps and it should work.
Forgot that I set up opera as a permanet app using *159# when I was trying to uninstall. Removed that option from that java menu and tried again before uninstalling and it worked. Thanks for all your help, sir.
When I click on “change skin” under settings, I get the error. Im on a i335.
Try powering off your phone and removing the battery for 30 seconds.
Also check your free data space under Java Apps > Java System. If its under 500k that could be the problem, delete another app to free up space.
If neither of those helps, uninstalling and reinstalling might fix it but you would loose your bookmarks which might not be worth it just for those rather pointless skins.
Just tried again to change my skin to no avail. You think it might be because I upgraded from 3.0 to keep my bookmarks?
When you go to Menu > Settings >Change Skin: Do you see four skins; Classic, Snow, Dark and Pink?
If you do what happens when you choose a different different skin and press the left soft key labeled “Save”. Do you get an error or no error but the skin doesn’t change?
Which phone are you using?
