Supported is a long way from native - it looks awful compared to Opera, blocky, gritty images, impossible to read anything without zooming...
The PC equivalent would be playing Quake in 640x480 on a 1920x1200 monitor...

how do you get it to change resolution?

yes okay it looks not as good as opera. but i think this is a really fast browser. i tink i will use this if i have only gprs connection and opera mini gave up

or you can use wvgafix3 to change the resolution =)

Meh stretched VGA =(. Good browser but that's the only bad thing about it, hope they'll change it one day.

shame its not full res on the touch hd.

Have they got sound working on video streams yet ???

this is nothing. still waiting on opera 9.7

Mach5 browser has same speed as skyfire but opera's clearity/resolution. Also, plays videos without any problems.

Here are the changes:
Skyfire 1.0 has a huge number of enhancements over the longstanding 0.9 beta:
* Thumbnail interaction. Now you can click on links immediately after the page loads without having to zoom in. This enhancement is especially helpful for high resolution phones, and for familiar sites where you know right away where you want to click. It makes getting to the content you want on the page simpler, quicker and more efficient.
* Improved Zoom. Double-tap or double-click to zoom over any element, including links, images or videos. The zoom interaction is smoother and more responsive as well. Best of all: when you zoom in you will get readable text instantly (beforehand, text was blurry and took a while to become sharp).
* Enhanced Navigation. When you navigate back or forward, you return to the last viewport (e.g. zoom level and portion of the page). Thus eliminating the need to pan and zoom into the section you were viewing on the previous page. Skyfire remembers even the viewport when you select a page from your history.
* Improved page handling. Enhancements have been made especially for AJAX-intensive sites such as Facebook and Gmail. If larger parts of the page get updated then the client will more quickly and accurately reflect this.
* iFrame handling. There's a solution for full-width iFrames in Skyfire
* Fast start. The developers changed both the sequence and behavior of the Skyfire launch so you get started as quickly as possible. You can type a search or URL in the Superbar while Skyfire is connecting in the background. You can put Skyfire to work before the start page is even loaded.
* Reconnect to last state. When you leave Skyfire in the background, Skyfire will disconnect to preserve battery life. Once you come back to it (after minutes, hours, days) it will reload the same page to the same zoom level and focus. Thus you can continue right where you left off. When you exit and start again, you will always land on the start page.
* Connection helper. There's a new mechanism in place to detect when connections cannot be established to Skyfire servers. If this is due to a network configuration (common in GSM land), then suggestions are provided to help out. This is especially useful if you are with a carrier/data plan that places restrictions on certain APN configurations, which interferes with Skyfire.
* Enhanced search results. Google results now include video, news articles, local results all blended on a single results page and ordered by relevance. Vertical search categories are still available.
* Improved RSS feed search. Find your favorite custom RSS feeds through the improved Add-Feed feature, found under the Customize menu on the start page. Search by site domain, feed URL, or even topical keywords.
* Easier sharing of RSS items from start page. Skyfire has exposed a simple “Share this article” link below each RSS story displayed on your start page to make it easier to share interesting items to Twitter and Facebook
* Remember last connection (Symbian only). Skyfire can now remember the last connection for you, so you will not have to choose a connection every single time. In addition, if you want to change the connection type while you are in Skyfire then you can do so.

sound is included. hm strange if i change the resolution to vga (wvgafix3) the texts and pictures are still noisy -.- dont understand that but i think a higher resolution will be not good for the skyfire servers.
waiting for 9.7
but i think 9.7 will be released end of the year. fennec also....

much better than the Beta's... I actually quite like this.

[Q] S-Note Sketching On-screen Recording Path for Note-2?

Hi
I did a screen-recording while sketching in S-Note. A recording functions that's built-in. I was able to play them back within the S-note app.
But, I could not find the recorded video / smb files - however I did find static image sketches' smb files.
Any pointers would be great help.
Thanks in advance

YES i found out this too.
Now the question is Where are those videos saved!

Are you sure it saves as a video file ?, could the static images you found actually be animated gif image

No, they don't appear like an animated gif, If I open it using VLC, it only shows a thumbnailimage.jpg - where as the file is over 3MB.
Also - was not able to extract .smb file neatly. Any clue on that?

try changing the file extension to .gif and open it with any programme that you know is capable of playing animated gif images correctly. It may well be a video file of some type proprietary to samsung, which only samsung app will play - I can think of other video files that cannot be played by any other software other than the app that they are designed for.

I thought the on screen recording doesn't work yet.
Oh snap! I don't have a witty tapatalk signature!

It's available in snote only and not available as advertised. .

Possible to use a gif as a lockscreen?

I saw several apps but none allow you to add the one you wanna use.

If the gif could be converted into a file like a live wallpaper im pretty sure its possible. Google how to make live wallpapers for android, use a program to extract the frames from a gif and that should be the right direction. After u make the file, ud probably have to inject the file into the system, dont know the location where live wallpapers are saved but it shouldn't be too hard to find.
Lemme know how it goes, seems like a cool idea which can be done fairly quickly.
Google dvd media soft, they have a program that i use to do general media stuff with, extracted frames from YouTube videos with it, possibly can do it with gifs aswell, not sure

Highlights and Htc share

So I like highlights and all but it's a bit confusing to navigate through all the required options.....for now I'm wondering what is the purpose of the highlight button? All it seems to do is add it to a new album folder called highlights but it does not actually make a video highlight.....
And when installing NOS Rom I think I removed something important for HTC share because I can't login or use HTC share at all. Any idea what apk id have to reflash ? Thanks .

Highlights is a highlight of photos from an event or such grouped into a small video... It works just fine for me... You have to save it after editing or viewing the highlight.

No those are the 30 second "highlight videos", which also work well for me. I'm tallking about when you go into your camera shots, view a photo, tap for more details, there's option to share delete and also "highlight" and star it. When I do this it does not make a highlight reel but only makes an album in my gallery for highlighted shots almost like starred or favorites (not the 30 second highlight video)

Looks like it just creates another folder with anything you highlight. May just be that...a way to look through all of your photos and pick which ones you like. Then they get organized so you can easily see just them
Actually a good idea. I use the HTC device to quickly shows stuff on the tv screen at work. I take a lot of picts for meetings and this would allow me to quickly pick ones I just want to show then. Not have to flick through them all during the meeting.
** By the way...the Media Link HD is something they did very well. By far the most reliable, quickest and easiest device to quickly show videos, pictures, Music, your screen (quickly show web pages live etc) that anyone has made. We also have Apple TV and Samsung media devices at work. This one just dominates them. And it is sooo portable. I bring it on the road so watch movies in the rooms.

Makes sense I suppose. Also very cool with media link...
Question: when you save/export the auto generated 30 second video highlights it is saved as a video file. Why on earth can you not upload this to HTC share? It says video is not supported .....

where can I get the full res version of this picture?

I'm looking for a full resolution version of this artwork. Its LG's default album cover when none is specified, and its also the lockscreen when you're playing music. Its awesome, and I want it in full resolution to use as a legit wallpaper. Thanks!

Have you tried copy paste the image on Google?
Just a suggestion.

!!! thanks, but can you upload it on flickr? Oftentimes, attaching pics on this site shrinks/degrades the pix enough pixels to make a big difference in image quality.
also, i just tried looking in the system dump. If you can't put the full thing on flickr, can you tell me the file path? Thanks

I don't have a flicker account so I uploaded it to
http://www3.zippyshare.com/v/lPaJkuZr/file.html
As for path, in system/priv-app/lgmusic/lgmusic.apk
I choose to view instead of install using root explorer and go to
Res/drawable-xxxhdpi-v4/ and extract albumart_mp_unknown.png
