Opera Mini 3.1 With Fix for i9 and i856

Opera Mini 3.1

This is  Opera Mini 3.1 patched to fix an issue which causes the Zeus  serries phones (currently the i9 and i856) to reboot while browsing. Details here. This version of Opera Mini 3.1 is only recommended for i9 and i856 users.  The generic version is faster on other models and does not exhibit the rebooting bug on them.

If you already have Opera Mini 3.1 on your phone, Download Apps will not automatically prompt you to install the new version after downloading it. You need to go to Java Apps, highlight Opera Mini, press the menu key and choose "Update". Say yes to the prompt "Keep existing application data" so you don't lose your bookmarks.

Data Connection Required: Yes

Supported iDEN phones: All Zeus Series (i9, i856)  only

      If you are asking for help you should post you comment on the help page not on this Opera Mini page!

      I don't know anything about text to speech on the i9, but there are easier ways to retrieve your contacts from your dead phone:
      1. Contacts are on the sim so if you put you sim in another iDEN phone you can see them.
      2. If the external screen still works you can press the "Smart button" (it's on the right side of the phone and has a square icon) to display contacts. Use the volume rocker to scroll through the contacts and press the speaker phone key to make a call.
      3. You can copy your contacts to a Windows PC with the free iDEN Phonebook Manager from Motorola See: Edit and Backup your Contacts on Your PC
