This might explain why i can't open received image on Wazapp/open image using Filebox...i'll give this a shot.

EDIT : Yes, I confirmed that Opera is giving this problem

Is it just me or Opera is either on par or better than the stock browser lately, I find myself using more & more of it lately, I like the tool bar, everything is just there, deleting history and all is so cool. Plus it view Full Version of Facebook flawlessly. I love the Keyboard too, it's more Precise, Accurate & Responsive than the stock one for me, I click less of the "Back Space" button than on Stock one. Only problem still trailing behind is the touch responsiveness in the sites, EG, the stock App responds better clicking smaller buttons, like when on this Forum and U wanna view next page by clicking page number, the stock one manages to respond to these numbers more accurately, with Opera U need to zoom way in to make them respond, other than that if this gets fixed I'm gonna make Opera Default.

Firefox, I simply hate this Mobile Browser.

@Muzimak

Changelog for 12.00.8:

1. Fixed suspend when in background.
2. Fixed MIME types preventing images from opening in the gallery.
3. Enabled custom user agent setting in opera:config.
4. Fixed user agent to correctly identify as a mobile device.
As you can see in point 4 - user agent is fixed to correctly identify as mobile browser. So you are redirected to FB mobile site. But as you can see in point 3 - you can set up custom user agent.

While I thank the two devs for their work on Opera 12 for our "dead" platform, am I the only one here who prefers the stock browser's no-frills approach...

I mean as much as I like Opera syncing all my speed dials and ability to open tabs, the better text-wrapping of the stock browser (e.g. opening this page on the stock browser and double-clicking it will give you a zoomed in view of the whole dialog box while Opera will zoom the text but you have to scroll to view the whole dialog box of every reply), speed, visibility of the status bar, default keyboard, ability to hack it to iOS/Android UA (which i think can now be added using 12.0.8 of Opera) and more precise selection make it my daily driver...

I would like to hear from some other people on why Opera is their preferred choice compared to the stock browser...

Compared to stock browser
+ bookmarks
+ downloading, stock browser doesnt let choose folder and seems to randomly choose between .tmp and Downloads, clearing Transfers with stuffs in .tmp will also remove them from memory.
+ clearing history,cookies, user/pass can be done separately
+ save page for offline reading, I use this alot
+ speed dials
+ tapping multiple links results in zoomin with links highlight.
- keyboard, tapping Shift = Caps Lock and no tacticle feedbacks
- rotation in every direction, wish I could disable it or having opera to follow orientation lock like glol.
- audio, video

Eventhough I like Opera but right now my main browser is still stock due to keyboard and audio/video support.
