In My Opinion Aout Of The 4 I've Now Tested, This Is The Easiest To Use And Has The Best Features. But Thats Just My Opinion.

I like it.
two observations; can't browse except using Wifi
and doesn't execute properly as default browser. I run Black 2.0 on a Jasjam.

That is sweet browser. It works for me both Wifi and Cellular network.

I have been using for about a week. I had sporadic problems using Edge with LVWS Rom and now with the Cingular 2.0 Black Rom I have no problems.......so far

Thanks for posting this, works great. Have to say it makes reading the forum easier from my phone. Using it to post this reply.

yeah, must agree, except that it does not work on some sites, this browser is head and shoulders above the rest. Great for reading.

Great
This is a great browser - nice and slick.
Plus it seems to be better for viewing PDF's than any other viewer i've tried

Not just SEEMS to be better at viewing PDF's, it is faster and slicker than any other PDF software and everyone should install it for the PDF capabilities alone - it is a bonus that it is a great web browser and views files of many different types

I've tried to install/re-install the program in main memory and Storage card. But tried to launch the Picsel Browser - keep getting "Initialisation Failure". Can anyone help ????

Might make a good pdf viewer, but its a piece of sh*t for a browser...works, but too much funky zoom/pan bs.

I absolutely love this application.

has anyone tried to login to myspace with this browser? It seems that this browser cuts part of the webpage, the part where I would login !

Could be a corupt file.
Try downloading it again.
It should work.

It may not be perfect, but its refreshingly different! I like it... thanks for the CAB

Thanks for the advice. But I have tried many time to reinstall/redownload ( also from other sites) but still encountered the "Initialisation Failure " error. I've also cleaned the direcory/registry/notification queue too but still not working. It's a pity - I would like to try out this program.

Yup, I have the same issue. Its a nice browser, fast and all but has some problems with rendering full page.

yeah, I definitely like the concept Of this browser. If the rendering problem could be fixed, I would dump opera mini and netfront in a heartbeat!

i like this app too, really nice.
someone has tried to browse a youtube video? i think this are flash movies, so i have installed flashplayer 7 (adobe(macromedia)), but the site alwayr return: Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Flash Player.
anyone knows how to solve this problem?
regards, chief

sweet!
Thanks guys, brings me back to the Sony UX50 days, a very capable browser.

I found out that the browser can only reach internet by using WIFI. when i tried to use cellular line, it did not work.
any idea to solve this? the software is very very good....

Anyone who can get this site to work on our WM6 Hermes?

Hi all,
First off, check out this site I was turned on to
(Go to it on a PC though to see how it works...)
www.tv-links.co.uk
It's a TON of tv shows/movies that you can stream for free.
Click on a show... any show, and see how it opens a new IE window and streams. This is where I'm a little hazy on what's happening. I'm not sure what's going on "Html-code-wise" to know why it won't work on my Tytn.
I've tried PIE and Opera, and set them both to be recognized as a desktop, but nothing will stream the content. It does open a new window, but then nothing happens. I'm doing this over HSDPA so I don't think speed is the issue at all.
This would be a great site to be able to get to our Tytn's. Can anyone figure out how to do it, or at least tell me what is happening that is not yet supported by mobile browsers?
the flash player in WM6 is not the full fledged desktop application to my knowledge. this website utilizes some Flash 9 components that just aren't in the mobile version. (again, to my knowledge).

And this is truly a shame. I had tried months ago to view ComedyCentral's Jon Stewart clips, to no avail...for the same reason.
I wonder how long it's going to take for Adobe to give us something for WM devices that works with the new security features they've built into the newer desktop versions.

Hmmm ... Flash Player Mobile, eh? I DL'd the trial, and I'll check it out with Jon Stewart tomorrow.
Thank you VERY MUCH! I hope this works, Diem! If it does, I owe you a beer or two.

[UPDATE] OK, I installed the Flash Player Mobile app this morning, and have tried to view the ComedyCentral videos. FWIW, I still cannot view them. The site still comes up only with links to upgrade my Flash Player wherever a link to a video should be. There does not seem to be any way to DL the flash files to play them locally.
Maybe I'll browse through that second URL left by Diem, and see if I can find anything there that works.
FWIW, I left a Q with Comedy Central, explaining the issue and asking if they would/could do anything to support us users with WM devices ... maybe provide an alternative media format that will work with our devices. I'll post back to this thread if/when I hear back from them.
Also FWIW, I did NOT try to view the URL provided by the OP ... so maybe he's finding success with this app.
Sorry Diem ... no beers for you yet [/UPDATE]
so I am to understand that the flash player that comes with WM6 now is the Macromedia (Adobe) Flash ActiveX 7.0 for Pocket PC, and this mobile version does not rely on ActiveX?
Dont ask me nothing I'm just waiting for a sweet cold Heiniken

Ahhhh, but THAT deal was only good if I got to view Jon on my Hermes. As it didn't work, you'll have to be happy with H2O
So if you want a glass, come on over, I've got a whole tapful
Seriously, I wish Adobe would catch us up with their desktop offerings, or some of these video sites would post in a format we could use.
Oh well ... it is what it is. I've already got plenty of other stuff that works fine, and keeps me using my device for more hours in the day than is good for me.
-pvs
I don't think the videos shown on the tv links site that I posted have anything to do with Flash. Dapzmob was probably the closest by calling Divx. Hope you guys figure out your Jon Stewart stuff nonetheless.
In anyone knows of a player that can play Divx AND integrates with PIE through a plugin, please let me know!

Skyfire Browser Questions/Issues

does anyone use the beta version of SKYFIRE browser? i heard its the best browser out there yet
and also you can edit the joggr to scroll up and down on websites right?
Hmm
Interesting!!!
Yet still a skeptic when it comes to giving out my phone #. Also, it goes with the remote server which is a no no for password sites. It would be fun to try it but also limit you.
well yeah but there has been reviews of the browser as well as interviews with the creator of the skyfire browser on youtube
people are waiting for it to release the official version
from the videos, i can tell that its easily the easiest browser to surf the web with on a windows mobile phone
That's just it...many will wait for a final release if they keep their word and won't charge for it. They are hoping big wig mobile companies will pick it up. Keep the middle men happy and still make it a successful browser.
i signed up for the beta last night. cant wait to try it. looks like it could be cool.
I wonder how easy it will be to use without the touch screen or stylus (IE, with the Dash/Excalibur).

I tried to join their beta 1 before. After giving their my phone #, they sent me a SMS messenger saying they have enough beta tester already.
I joined up with them some 5-6 months ago, and yet i havent been invited to either beta....so perhaps someone with a copy could post it?
Good afternoon.Could anyone upload SKYFIRE?
there is no cracked version available because all internet data is transmitted through skyfire where they authenticate the user and deliver the optimized mobile content.

to be honest i dont think a lot of people here have it. if you got it working over wifi post some screens of it or a review or something, let us in on it
i just use this internet3.voicestream.com and name it T-Mobile Web And its good for whatever and i figure that out by myself ... so give it a try and oh yea tha connection is the internet ,,no auto detect ..... and its also good for all operas..

Can you elaborate on these settings? Do you have skyfire and it works with these changes? Are they different or additions to the standard tzone proxy?
My review as i just tried it a bit at home yesterday was that it is much better than opera and IE. I recently tried Opera and i still find myself using the 6.1 IE instead because the fonts and the screen is just much better.
Now if i had skyfire working, i would use that all the time. it is so nice to see the complete web page available. I think it definitely competes with the IPHONE's browser, if not surpasses it. I have no problems with my information showing up on their proxy servers, because how much information are you going to be passing through them, its not like im going to do online banking on my phone. load times were fairly fast, but i was on wifi, don't know what edge will be like.
As far as streaming video, it does work. i went to mlb.com and saw the video play which is cool, however, it does studder a bit when playing, not as smooth as through a pc. but overall, it definitely is an advance in the right direction.
Al Right I'll Explain ......
First : Delete Alll Proxies.....( No Need For Proxies )
Second : Go to Connections.. Create A New Connection Under GPRS..---> Name It ..T-Mobile Web. As It Is.. Access point Is ..internet3.voicestream.com.. no username no password .....matter of fact . just put that in and done!!!.
Third & Final : Go to what ever browser your using (try internet explorer first) go to menu >tools>optoins>Connections.... uncheck box ... Network>>>The Internet.. Now You should Your Page And Now You Can Breathe Now...LOL Your Welcome

YouTube app?

Is there an app with integrated browsing and playing of YouTube videos for the Excalibur? Something like the one that comes with the iPhone and T-Mobile G1?
I did have something set up before with TCPMP and some kind of IE plugin, but it just really isn't ideal and was prone to errors. I know I've seen integrated browser/players for touch screen WinMo phones, but I've never seen anything for WinMo Standard.

Reboot fixed it, I'm surprised I hadn't already tried that. This program is brilliant, it is not only a fantastic integrated YouTube browser, but also the best local media player that I've seen for this phone so far. This is awesome.

I tried skybook and mobilizer. neither worked very well. the basics were there but they both have a long way to go. the skybook app always failed to close properly and mobilizer never seemed to open properly.
This is not really an app, but some have suggested using the facebook page for iphone. I believe it is something like iphone.facebook.com or so.
EDIT: Na, I take it back. This certainly won't help you. I just tested the iphone facebook and did not like it. It seems that it uses resolutions for the iphone and everything looks big and blurry on the HD. Besides, that was no really what you were looking for anyway.
Here you go: http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=16698519604
If you are going to use Facebook on a PDA, just use "m.facebook.com"... It is a web page obviously, but is formatted better for smaller screens...
Theres one being developed by this very site!

Is it possible to download from File Sharing sites

I don't own the Evo but I got a chance to play with one. I noticed the screen froze up every time I tried to download from Megaupload. I tried it again and the same thing happened. Was this just a fluke?
Trust me, Im loading mine up with "good" software and most of it is either torrents of file sharing sites like you describe and I have had no issues on either.
However, getting a good torrent app is a bit of a challenge. I ended up using andTorrent as aBTC kept force crashing.

I can't download from sharing sites because of their countdown timer, doesn't work right, so i just grabbed skyfire for those sites.
The countdowns are java based. As long as you have java script enabled in your browser it should work. I just grabbed a file last night off of 4shared with the stock browser with no problems.

I have found the timers will sometimes lock up is you zoom in or out on the screen. As loon as I leave the screen also (can switch windows though) it is ok.
