How to install different versions of java OPERA Mini in the same mobile

The Problem:-

If you have Opera Mini preinstalled in your mobile phone then it is not possible to upgrade.

Well, then how do we do it ?

1. To be on the safer side make sure that the .jad and .jar file names are same.
Let the names be same as you downloaded.
2. If your phone uses the .jad file it will look out for the .jar file mentioned inside the .jad file. so leave the names as it is and you are safe.
