BB Storm2 9550/9520 :: Which Is Fastest Browser New Bolt / Opera
May 28, 2010I'd like some opinions specifically from storm2 owners as to
1) which browser is the fastest?
2) which browser do you like the best?
I've read on the forums that the new bolt browser is the fastest but personally I'm not sure. I'd like to know from s2 owners so that all other different factors between different models of BB phones are held constant.

Jan 7, 2010I have a UK vodafone storm 2 9520. I'd quite like to have opera 5 mini beta on it .... I've read that it is very good.I tried to download it from the Opera site and it sent a link to my phone which took me to mini.opera.com said my phone model couldnt be detected and something about going to the opera site and using a desktop pc to download the file. I did this and ended up with a .alx and a .cod file. I've not been able to find a way to install them on my phone. I've copied them across and tried to run them and i've emailed the files to me to an email on the phone and it says file type not recognised.

May 15, 2010So I know that you can touch the red bar to scroll all the way up in the Opera Mini browser, but is there any way to scroll down besides swiping the screen?I've searched as best as I can and couldn't find anything that's relevant to the Storm's touchscreen. All the instructions are for physical keyboard use, not the touchscreen.Is it possible to scroll down in the Opera Mini browser with the Storm's touchscreen?

Apr 8, 2010I wonder why RIM doesn't just release devices with Opera Mini preinstalled. IMO, Opera blows every other mobile browsing experience out of the water, regardless of device or brand. What are your thoughts and if you choose to stick with the RIM browser despite admitting its limitations, then why?

Apr 1, 2010Whether it was my recent os upgrade to 517 or the new BIS 3.0, but something amazing has happened to my native browser. It went from being frustratingly slow and almost unusable to lightning fast! Its so different I have been thinking of it as a whole new app.I used to use Opera Mini exclusively, and had even gone as far as to "hide" the icon for the bb browser, but that has all changed. I haven't even booted up OM in a couple of days. Has any one else noticed this incredible change? Is it the new BIS or was my it 517 upgrade? Most pages now load in less than 3 seconds!

View 14 Replies View RelatedBB Storm2 9550/9520 :: Need To Manually Change From Hotspot Browser?
Mar 8, 2010I recently installed Tank's Act 2 .497 Hybrid (which is awesome) on my 9550. Previously, I had only been running the stock OS 5.0.0.320 on my device. I actually searched quite a bit, but found no problems that were quite the same as what I'm experiencing. I had posted this same issue on page 17 of Tank's thread, but decided to start a new thread just to be able to reach more of the masses, as I'm not sure if this issue is specific to Tank's hybrid or not.
Everything works great, with one lone exception--I have my default browser set to "hotspot" as I always have, and previously (using .320) if I was in an area with no WIFI signal, the browser would just automatically switch over to the Internet browser and load my pages just fine. Now, however, if I have no WIFI signal, I get a "This is a WIFI service. Please ensure your device has an active WIFI connection and try again." message, forcing me to go into the browser settings and manually change the browser from "hotspot" to "Internet".Is this normal (for any OS version)? Is there some setting somewhere I'm missing? Seems to be a bit of a pain, just to take advantage of WIFI, to have to set this manually all the time.
*Also, as much as I appreciate the help, I'm not looking for "Use Opera Mini! It PWNS the BB Browser!!!1!". Yeah, I know there are other browsers out there, some with great features (and speeds), but I'm just trying to figure out this issue with the BB Browser.
BB Storm2 9550/9520 :: Increased Startup And Browser Speed
Jun 17, 2010Yesterday, I went into view folder to clean out phone logs. I don't know why, but I had 9 sets of duplicate folders. I hooked up to Desktop Manager and went into Advanced under Backup and Restore. Once there, I cleared the file database- file problem solved. I happened to see a file in the same list called Browser cache that was several megs big. That was strange because I always clear my cache. I cleared that file as well. On startup this morning the phone was under 30 seconds to come up. Browser speed is also at least 2x faster than it was and holding strong at that increase. Not sure what those files had to do with anything other than the obvious but I am very impressed with the results.

Jan 23, 2010I just got this phone a couple days ago. My provider is O2de, and I have an unlimited data plan (that I verified was working when I couldn't get my browser to work) and I even pay €5 a month just because my phone is a BB. But when I try to get on the internet it says " your device does not currently have any Browser Configuration Service Book Entries. Please contact your service provider to enable the browser on your device".
I went and asked the next day, but they said everything is good on their end, and its a problem with my phone. Anyone have any idea of how to fix this? I cant send MMS because I don't have an email account registered because i cant do it without internet. Its really limiting what i can do with my phone.
BB Storm2 9550/9520 :: 9550 Or 9520 / Which Is Better Suited To Canadian Phone Companies
Mar 19, 2010I have scrolled through the forums reading about both these phones and i have a few questions
1.What i am still unsure of is which phone is better suited to Canadian phone companies neither will get 3g coverage but will one work better than the other like will they both get 2.5g coverage?
2. Also i have read that possibly the 9520 will be comin to rogers but i havnt heard anything recent on it does anyone have news on a release date or anything?
3. Right now i am thinkin of buyin the storm 9550 from telus and either goin with fido or terminate my contract with them and stay with telus or move to rogers. Is there a company that is better suited to the storm 2 or will either giv me 2.5g?

View 14 Replies View RelatedBB Storm2 9550/9520 :: Browser & GPS Not Working - Everything Else Working Fine
Jan 26, 2010BB S2 on VZW
OS .320
Operating on a BES
For the past couple of days, I've been unable to use my BB's Browser or GPS functions. Whenever I try to connect to the BB Browser, I get a timeout error. None of my bookmarks are able to connect either. I've tried switching between the different settings in browser configuration settings (BIS, hotspot, wifi, IE, Firefox, etc) to no avail. I also have a wifi set up at home and even though it was working flawlessly a couple of days ago, it will no longer connect to any wifi. In addition, the GPS function is not working on any of the apps that use GPS (Both BB and Google maps, weatherbug, poynt).
Here's the kicker: Everything else is working great. I'm getting all of my emails from all of the emails I have configured with the device (my work email through the BES, forwarded from a comcast address, and from my *@vzw.blackberry.net address) and all of my apps seem to be working fine. I've got facebook, ubertwitter, ebay, weatherbug, poynt, and a couple of others and they're all able to update wirelessly.
I've tried going through a new enterprise activation, I've updated everything through the desktop manager, and I've re-registered the device on the network. I'm iffy on whether I've actually pushed all of the service books to the device again because I can't login here: https://bis.na.blackberry.com/html?brand=vzw. Whenever I try to, it tells me I have use my device's BIS. Well, that's my problem. I can't use my device's BIS. Also, I have one WiFi host routing table and about a hundred Verizon host routing tables. I'm not sure which ones I should delete, as I've read, in order to get it download a new one.
The only thing I've really noted that appears to be a problem is that when I go to Options -> Status, the device's IP Address is 0.0.0.0. I'm not sure if that is supposed to be like that or not. I know from regular internet usage on a desktop, if you don't have an ip address on the network, you can't get on the internet. Does that ring true for the BB as well?
