The Bolt Browser was a very popular Java web browser that many considered better than Opera Mini or the UC Browser. Bolt was discontinued in Dec, 2011 and the servers were shut down and Bolt stopped working. Until now when Boostapps vistor Asit Paul found this working version and shared it with us all. Apparently it connects to a previously unknown Bolt server that is still working.
Although this version works it's been modified with an annoying "Handler menu" that pops up when the app starts. The Handler menu lets you enter "tricks" or hacks that let you browse for free on certain mobile operators.
To stop the Handler Menu from appearing at start up, uncheck the "Show at Start" box and click "Save changes and exit". Unfortunately there are some key mapping issues with the Handler Menu. On a Motorola Rambler I had to lock the keyboard in number mode and use the 5 key as the OK button to click "Save changes and exit".
I don't know how idea how long this version will continue working, enjoy it while it lasts. Update 1-June-2013 This version has stopped working.
