I'm using gravity and opera mobile 10.

If I go to my nokia settings in

  Settings -> Application settings -> Default applications

and change the default browser to opera, it seems to have no effect.

Clicking on links in gravity launches the native browser.

There is a problem with the Opera Mobile available at the Ovi Store that causes this bug.

You should go to http://m.opera.com and download it again and it will work.

After using for some time, I noticed that there are some apps that apparently will always use the Nokia Browser.

The only one that will always use the Opera is the Email app.

I think this is one of the Bugs nokia will adress at the next firmware....

You still sound further ahead than me, because I like/use Opera Mini instead of Mobile.  Even after installing the signed version (to stop Opera asking to connect on every launch), it still doesn't even appear as an option for my N8's choice of default browser.

It is the same for me, I have both Mini and Mobile installed and I can choose only Opera Mobile, I think Mini is the J2ME version of Mobile, right?

Maybe only Symbian apps will appear as an option.

You could also try Bolt or Skyfire (if you are lucky to in a Country still supported in Skyfire).

Bolt I really never used, but Skyfire has a much better Flash integration than the Nokia Browser and runs as fast or faster as Opera Mobile or Mini.

If my theory about J2ME is right, Bolt will not appear as an option, but maybe Skyfire will.

Best regards,

Mauricio
