Has anyone from Canada (Bell Mobility carrier) managed to install and use Opera Mini web browser on the instinct?

I go to mini.opera.com and try to download 4.1 I get an error "This issue has been reported. Please try again later. 905 Attribute mismatch"
Then i try 3.1.2 and get a choice between high memory and low memory versions. If I try the high memory I get the same error as above. The low memory installs fine.

When I try to launch opera mini 3.1.2 (low memory version) on the instinct I get the following message:
"Different ways of connecting to the Internet will now be attempted. Press OK to start the setup."
However, there is no OK button. I feel sort of silly asking this, but what is the solution?

----
I also heard that keyboard does not work well with the Opera mini but apparently there are workarounds until a patch is released.

not that the keyboard doesnt work well... its that the keyboard doesnt work at all! do a search and you will find the way to do a workaroud. You can find a site that has a keyboard on it to go to a website then bookmark it. but you wont be able to log into any accounts whatsoever as you are limited to what you can click on. the ok should be on the screen with opera mini 3 its in red at the bottom left of the screen. We are all waiting for a update that allows a pop up keyboard in third party apps

Thanks, I did find the workaround for the keyboard. My problem is with installing opera in the first place. There is no OK button at all on the screen. Perhaps it works differently for you since you have a different version of the phone in the US. I'll post a screenshot to show you what I mean in a bit.

Does anyone else in Canada (Bell) have this problem?

There is no OK button anywhere on the screen. There is no option to scroll either, the above image is the entire contents of the screen.

Greetings to our Northern Brethren. There is a main "Opera" thread in the "3rd party apps" section. I reccomend you check there for any further info. It's called "A Night at the  Opera" . It's got tons of info.

Thanks but (un)fortunately no one else has reported this problem in the US. It is either particular to the Canadian make or to my device. This is why I'm asking if anyone else from Canada (Bell) encountered this problem.

Could someone from Canada please try to install Opera Mini on their instinct? I'd like to see if my problem is reproducible.

I read in one of the other 3rd party threads an American had the same problem.  I think he said he just pressed his finger all over the screen and it eventually clicked.  Maybe it was hidden?

Just tried methodically pressing on every square millimeter of the screen. Nothing worked.

I'm guessing no third party apps are going to work on the Bell Instinct.  Mother ...........

I think that may be the case. Every 3rd party app i've tried to install has returned a "905 Attribute mismatch" error. A bit of googling suggested that the 905 error means that an app is not allowed to be installed by the service provider (Bell).

Yes, the problem is global. Its not a bell problem or a sprint problem, its a samsung problem. But the makers of opera are supposedly working for a solution.
