Is there a way to make the default browser not the Nokia browser? Every time I click on a link in Twitter for example the Nokia one pops up.

I'd like to make Opera(or a different browser some of you may recommend) the default browser.

Thanks, everyone!

Just install Opera Mobile and go to the apps settings and choose it as Standard Browser.

Thanks Mauricio. That was my first thought but I didn't see that option inside Opera's settings.

I click on the O in the bottom corner > click settings > and then I don't see it.

I'm running Opera Mobile version 11.50.1947

I also checked in Advanced Settings and didn't see it. Is it hidden somewhere else maybe?

I think what Mauricio is talking about is : menu-button > settings > application-settings > default-applications > browsing-internet ; and probably change that from "Web" to "Opera".
