How to delete the history and cache in Opera Mobile (10.1)
- by Mathias Lin
I run Opera Mobile 10.1 on Android. My device is rooted. How can I clear the history and cache of the browser via shell?
As su, removing
/data/data/com.opera.browser/opera/profiles/smartphone/cookies4.dat
/data/data/com.opera.browser/opera/profiles/smartphone/cache
/data/data/com.opera.browser/opera/profiles/smartphone/cacheO
and a
/system/xbin/busybox killall -9
com.opera.browser
afterwards doesn't seem to do the job. Afterwards, bookmarks etc. are still there.
In Opera Mini I found it easy to just delete
/data/data/com.opera.mini.android/cache/webviewCache
/data/data/com.opera.mini.android/databases
but unfortunately, Opera Mini in it's current version has a bug and doesn't work on most devices.
