This browser is running really slow on my BlackBerry 8320!!!

Yes the scroll speed is a bit up setting, I felt like I was scrolling for ever just to get to the bottom of the screen, there’s room for improvement plus it’s a Beta so I know the deal.....

Seems to work pretty good on my Storm. I'm going to have to decide between the Blackberry Browser, Opera Mini, and Bolt now. I would be interested to see a chart comparing the three. Maybe I can dig something up in the forums.

good stuff, i liked the older version...guess im gonna realy like this one

It is still nice but still slow on the scroll. Maybe in the future it will get better.

I'm still trying to get the install to work. It all appeared good until I couldn't locate the icon in my menu. I emailed support already. I'm using a Telus 8330.

Just when I was about to toss this browser this drops.

Infinitely better than the previous iteration. Cursor no longer lags.
T=Top, B=Bottom, the space bar works for scrolling. I am so
loving this, cant wait to see what is next.

Does anyone else have this? I can use the Dual-Signed Version, but not the BB one.

i just downloaded bolt this morning. WOW! this browswer rocks compared to my storm's standard browser or even opera mini.

Bolt is yet another browser that doens't have a good user interface. I just downloaded and tried .83 today and it is still quite clunky and hard to use. Not quite as bad as Opera Mini, but not much better either.

The only thing going for these 3rd party browsers is the additional speed in page loads. But its like getting a race car and not know how to drive it: its worthless unless you can control the thing properly.

I am sticking with the built in browser even though it's dog slow.

So fast. Love the BB specific enhancements. I think adding the "." with the spacebar is new. Scrolling around in a page is a bit slow. I wish they would add a feature where if you held the alt or shift while scrolling it did page scrolling so we could work a bit faster. You can use the space to go down a bit and shift space to go up a bit but they should increase that. Still a bit too little.

Sites look soooooo much better. Now surfing around on it.

LOVE the fact that it doesnt reload anymore when you change between landscape/portrait with the storm.

what's the deal with "wi-fi" in the options menu???

First time Bolt User so not much to compare it to. I'm a Storm user 9530... Interesting web browser. Don't like that I have to enable suretype every time....is there a setting i can make this the default? Also my storm became a touch screen using this browser rather than a click screen. Meaning I can just touch the screen to direct it rather than fully clicking it.... Interesting I've only played it with it for like 10 minutes so....

This browser is super fast even faster on wifi. After being a windows mobile user and using skyfire this is the closest browser I have seen yet that comes close to bringing a full web browsing experience to blackberrys. Although it cannot play a lot of the media content that skyfire could it does support youtube which is a plus. Cnn or some of the other sites of its kind would be great to to be able to get media content but other then that its super easy to navigate and the learning curve is fast. Hope to be able to get it when I get my 8900 next week!

I agree, love the way it doesnt reload when changing direction, as far as being harder to use, the only problem i am having is placing the curser in the right spot or it will download a wrong page, guess my fingers are to big...Ha!

Anybody else with this issue?

Installation was fast and the first-time loading was quicker than I tought it would be. Pretty decent, especially for a Beta version. Looking forward taking it "around the track" after work.
Pearl Flip 8220
OS 4.6.0.180
T-Mobile

Download the version that says For Blackberry Users

Very Very quick, I don't think it has any adjustments from the trackball. But before some pages wouldn't load or would get a network error. Perfect! Can't wait for the official release

I still can't get this to work on my 8120 without WiFi. I still get the "internet not available" message. I'm T-Mobile. Anyone else with simmilar issues?

I was busy when I got the option to upgrade, so I clicked cancel. Now I'm ready for it but the option doesn't pop up any more. Any ideas on how to get it back?

I would resend for the original beta. That's what they say you should do if you accidentally download the wrong upgrade.

Keep getting an error saying download failed. It says I am not authorized to download. I even re-submitted to private beta testing, got the email and still got same error.

I Just tried on my BB Flip and this is what happens with the WiFi on the bolt browser, so correct me if im wrong anybody. The WiFi option I believe connects The browser to your phones WiFi. Reasoning for this is that I have tried having my phones WiFi enabled and the Bolt WiFi enabled and it works fine. Pulls up the pages really quick.. I have also had the WiFi on my phone enabled and not on the Browser and its still pretty fast. But when I have the WiFi on the Browser enalbed and no WiFi on my phone it doesnt do anything. On the previous version it would give me a "cannot connect to the server" error. I found this out because I had WiFi connected on my phone and the browser which was connected to my home router and then when I left the house and was out of range it reverted back to edge speeds and I tried to connect and it wouldnt let me pull it up until I disabled the WiFi on Bolt. Hope this helps.

One annoying thing is every time you open the browser and go to a site, you get the "Would you allow.." access question. Wish that was a one time question and the answer was stored somewhere...or not asked at all.

Other than that...definite improvements from original beta. Keep improving!

I think that you will be save if you download the unsigned version.. at least when I upgraded when it gave me the option when I loaded the new version of the browser it had one for blackberry specifically, was the first link, although it was still and unsigned version when it downloaded.. So i guess take it as you will.. Unsigned just means that its unverified but it still comes from bolt, but I believe its for the blackberries that have certificates for security purposes because of blackberry BES. make sense?

i upgraded and lost all my favourites. Did that happen to everyone?

For all the speed in the world the program still isn't right for the storm. It doesn't allow you to highlight before selecting through a screen push so essentially treating it like a iphone touch screen and moving the cursor isn't an option. Also the going to menu to magnify gets rid of another option to select the right icon. So in summation great product for non-storm blackberry's.

lost all my favorites also but i love the bolt on my storm

got in on the beta! hope it's worthwhile.

thanks for the tip!

Using the trackball is still painful. Once they get it working like the built in browser or opera I will be happy.

With this update it's still really bad for the Curve 8330. Maybe it's just because I'm not driving a Bold/Storm/8900, but it's really jumpy/jerky, and hard to control. The trackball is about as sensitive as a chafed cl!t. Ouch.

Is it just me? Or have others with a regular old curve experienced the same thing?

When I first downloaded the browser it worked great but now when enter a web address, it acts like its going to load and than does nothing. Does anyone know how to fix this?
