Please disregard, I just read the thread about the legal issues.
I first wish to thank you all for maintaining this site and freely sharing your updates, experience, and knowledge. This site is a God-Send.
I amposting since I have one question, and not sure where the issue lies, Has anyone else experienced problems downloading form the Rapidshare sites? I get an error about exceeding the allowed downloads but I have'nt downloaded yet. I am thinking maybe something in my IE 7 or another security setting?
Any ideas woudl be helpful since I cannot wait to get to WM6.
Thanks,,,,

Well maybe your connected to the internet using a proxy. and as free user u only can download one file every hour. if you are using a proxy, everybody, who's using this proxy too, blocks you. but its just a suggestion from me.
alternate you can restart your router and try again. this is also a trick to download more than one file in an hour, because you get a new ip.
I had the same issues with rapidshare.
But since the FTP was stripped and most new roms are released through it I have paid for a premium subscription.
It works 100%
And if you know where to look there are loads of other cool software available on rapidshare.

I searched this thread for anything that dealt with this site being a mobile site, but it came up with nothing. Is there one? I like to get on the net with my phone, and this site is very informing. Even with Opera on my phone its kinda slow loading on 3G. But my question is, is there one? or one in the works? was there an idea of one? thanks.

Perhaps there is no mobile site because a lot of users like me can chek this normal site on their devices and no need for a mobile special one.
I can check it very nice in opera 9.5 (Of course my big screen allow me to)
Even with GPRS and no 3G
Cheers mate,
There is indeed a Mobile XDA. You can find it here.
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.
skyfire browser over 5.99 proxy
I just got my skyfire invite today. works well over wifi, but has anyone got it to successfully work over edge using the 5.99 proxy???

Ditto...........
i wish someone knew the answer...
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

Heads up!!
I just opened xda dev in opera mini and I am logged in as a user called dredd?????
not in the same country as this user!!?
I will log in on a desktop browser (firefox) now so i can see if this post is here!
Ive edited his sig just so i can verify that it is fully logged in as another user,
a severe security lapse by opera, or a known bug????
anybody come accross this before?
how bizarre!..
most odd!
i just logged out and closed opera mini and im still logged in as dredd when i reopened it?
cookies deleted and before i initially opened opera i had just hard reset?

If you are not dredd, what is your username suppose to be???
If you are able to access his account, why are you did you edit his sig and now you are posting from this other person's account? Wouldn't that be against the forum rules as far as gaining access to someone else's account, even if it was just an accident I sure wouldn't be going around posting under his account.

I was posting under his to verifyi actually had access.
dont come all high and mighty an go mentioning rules to me.
I was just warning ppl not abusing this fellows account.
this definately has nothing to do with opera unless you would have downloaded opera or a cooked rom from this forum that may have somehow contained his/her log in information.
the only other way this could have happened is an error with the forum servers
Opera Mini works via proxy servers, so its possible that their servers sent fex dredd's login state. Just another reason why proxy server browsers suck ass.

Consdering millions of people use Opera Mini, the chances of something like this is quite slim, it's possible I'm sure, but rare. Can a mod verifiy to see if he did indeed post via Opera Mini by verifying the IP address?
Hi
I am the REAL .dredd.
I also experienced the false login using opera mini so it happened not to only one member.
In the past few days I have been logged in accidentally under 3-4 members... today I was wondering seeing Ababrekar's notification for me...
fex:
It would have been nicer to give this warning to the forum under your account instead of mine.
still logs me in as dredd if i use opera mini
I've reported this post to the Site admin to have a look at.

Mostly the ip addresses you guys use are the same, if you're using a proxy that could be the problem. If at all possible could you try to eliminate the proxy?

Hi Flar!
The REAL .dredd. is here ))
As I mentioned I also experienced the problem but... in 3 different times I was logged in into 3 different accounts... pls do not ask which ones because I did not care... I only checked the new topics and new devs as always... as if I would have been logged with my own account.
Nevertheless the symptom is strange and should be solved.
I did not touch any settings in my connections and nor in opera mini settings... to tell the truth I do not know how to eliminate proxy in operamini... today morning I logged in without problems with operamini.
The only thing I am angry at is that other user made a forum entry (even a new topic) in the name of mine... abarekar gave me a notification due to this.
Thx
.dredd.
Problem solved:
I KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS: You packaged an already synced mini!
The issue happened when I made an update to my rom. I cabbed up the all of the _s0 files after already setting up my mini. syncing it and everything.
It saved my settings.
HOW TO SOLVE:
delete all of the _s0 files and start from scratch. redownload opera mini (signed) and install. fix all of the security things. Take just the newest files ( you can use the explorer on your pc to arange as modified.) copy those for your package.
This version of opera mini has more files. including various skins.
Now the only problem is that you need to get rid of all the versions that have already been uploaded

Cant see why your angry mate I did nothing but inform the mods and site users of the issue.
I could have messed with your account or posted **** under your name which wouldve been fair reason for your anger.

I can see both sides. I also agree that it would tick me off if someone did it to my account. but at the same time i understand if i was on someones account i would do the same thing.
Hey Fex, at this point I do belive the words should enter your stream right now, "I DO understand why you are upset and I never meant to violate your account or sense of community. I understand that my attempt to exemplify the problem and not invalidate your security is at cause. Please understand that my intent was good and that in the future I will notify the community, devs and users from my own account."
Now since the solution has been found and fault can be handed out, the matter of violation of privacy is clearly in the hands of the developer who released the rom with his credentials inside of it.
Your internal fight now Fex is, "Was it ethical to knowingly log in to an account I knew was not mine." Thats all you dude, how would you teach a class full of children to handle the same scenario?
Good find on the problem, great find on the fix, awesome education given to all ROM devs and those who share images and data that touch our own personal data.
a quick fix to this, without deleting or reinstalling your Opera, would be clearing cookies. and for the account "dredd" to be suspended. at least till this thing clears off. This way, all users will not be able to use the "dredd" account, and be forced to relogin again, therefore eliminating the cookies.
my two cents. what you think?
Have noticed this for the last few days using IE6 at work.
When reading the forums the page jumps to the Google Ad at the bottom, which means I have to scroll back up to the where I was.
Anyone else noticing this with IE6 or other browsers?

I am using Opera 9.63, this did not happen for me. Sure its not something else doing the trick ?

Nope only happens on this site. Think it's linked to the new type of Google ad which www.Swoopo.co.uk are running.
I can confirm this too, IE 7 Windows XP SP2, thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396922

Funny, just to check, just tried IE 7.0.5730.11, did not happen for me!
Very funny! Tried Dave's Link, did not happen for me this time also, I don't know could be because of slow internet connection, Prehistoric PC (P4 2.0 Gig )! No idea! But funny all the same, and thank GOD!

Pretty sure it the one ad which is doing it, I've tried to contact Google to see if they can sort it out. The other option is for the Google Ad Admin of the site to block ads from www.Swoopo.co.uk
Guessing for those outside of the UK won't have the issue as Google change the ads depending on which country you are in.

That must be the reason! Both you guys are from UK. And actually we have ads on top of the page (big bum me !) unlike yours (bottom of page)
all ok here
im having no problems here in birmingham @ home and work is fine
Firefox 3.0.5 and IE 6/7/8 beta are all working OK here is the US.
Add'l Info:
Tested on Vista Utimate x64 SP1 and XP SP2.
This is driving me mad, clicking on the link for the newest post just doesn't work with these ads as it moves the page.
Can anyone who has the Google Adsense admin add www.Swoopo.co.uk to the blacklist.
