OM4 Samsung Scrolling issue (E200, E250, D900)

Hi,

I have a Samsung E200 and I try to use OM4 but after entering to a page and pressing any arrow keys, keys seems to be keep pressed. Even in the menu, I cant make it stop scrolling. I dont have such a problem with other programs.

Any solution for this?

Welcome to Opera Mini forum Tanrikut

Give us examples of those other programs. Do you mean inbuilt programs only, or all other JAVA applications as well? Have you used Opera Mini 3?

I noticed that Samsung E200 is not officially supported by Opera Mini: http://www.operamini.com/download/pc/samsung/
Are there any other problems on that model?

Thanks for your warm welcome and fast reply

I mean other java apps and built in browser. OM4 seems to work in E200. I dont have the problem in the welcome menu when I first open the OM4. I can enter the URL and connect. After the page opens, when I use the arrow keys, they go mad

I didnt tried with OM3. But I will try it soon.

It's a problem with both E200 and E250. There's not much we can do about it. It's the phone...

I have the exact same problem on my Samsung D900. I find It occurs when mobile view is NOT selected and only after changing screen orientation.
When I press any of the direction keys, the screen keeps scrolling till it reaches the end of the page. The same happens when I enter the Opera mini 4.0 menu after changing to landscape mode. Scrolling up and down in landscape mode=problem. Scrolling left to right in portrait mode = problem. Any other Samsung users experiencing this issue?

I tested Opera 3.1.2 with no luck. Same problem there.

What could be wrong with the phone that only Opera Mini has this problem whereas other Java apps doesnt?

What you do is after it asks for http connection and opens the first link you hit #1 to open the text box, them hit cancel. The crazy scrolling will stop until you start it again.

I have Samsung D600i. (At least, I think so

)

What I do, each time, is go to the menu, enter url, type in "a", cancel, and then the scrolling works as intended throughout the session.

having the exact samese problem with my sprint touch. I can't find a lot of people on the htc forums that have this problem but it seems it is happening to some of you. I just can't figure it out. I have had two phones and they both do it.

With my e250 i have this prob using flurry also. but with opera mini, i can disable the scrolling madness by entering a text box then cancelling. when u get back to the page your cursor wont keep scrolling.

I noticed that on Samsung D900, you can stop the scrolling issue by pressing the phone hangup button to exit opera mini. choose NOT to end the program when prompted and everything works again.

It seems there are other people and phones with this problem, so I wonder Opera people consider this as a bug and will try to fix it or is this real phone's problem that cant be solved? Actually as we somehow has a workaround for this, I think this can be solved.

Probably not since it happens on other programs and not just opera mini. Basically any java program that opens a data connection after the d-pad has been touched will have this problem.

Other programs that had this problem were google maps and tibia. It went away in the latest version of google maps since now they start the data right away.

Another fix I found is to put the phone in silent mode before starting the program.

Definitely a problem in the java and not opera.
