Opera Mobile

Hi all
I have a couple of problems with Opera Mobile and I was wondering whether anybody knows a solution. Firstly I can't seem to enable Opera to open more than two tabs at a time, which I find annoying. Secondly, does anybody know how to enable flash from websites within Opera? I did notice that this question had been asked before but that there wasn't an answer. I've installed the Flash 3.1 which was taken from a 207XX build of WM6.1. Should I install the official Flash Lite 3.1 Distributable instead? I understood that this was a stand alone player.
Despite my signature I'm using the HTC TP2 with a stock WWE ROM from HTC Europe.
Cheers

Opera Mobile 9.7 open beta should be out tomorrow (Monday).
If you can, please install it and let us know how tabs & flash work?

I think that's just a rumour. No official confirmation.

To change the number of tabs
From within opera go to
opera:config
select User Prefs
Maximum Tabs - choose your preference
Then scroll down to "Save"
Hope that helps.

to watch flash vids with opera(embedded videos) you need to add text string to axobjects.ini(axobjects). i have done it and it works. you need to go to app data,opera9 and use a text editor and enter this string of text:
go here in file explorer - \Application Data\Opera\axobjects.ini to support flash
CODE:
[Shockwave Flash]
Allow=Url|Embed|Object|Scripts

Hi jmak
Thanks for that. Unfortunately it keeps reverting to 2 tabs max on restart of the application.

hmmmmmmmmm very strange as it works with all versions of opera. what text editor did you use. you need to go to app data-opera9 and edit file axobjects with a text editor. enter the text string for shockwave player as is. i usually put it in the middle of all the text. also have you installed dvhaflashlite 3.1 as that one works best

Yes, I found this; it would keep ignoring the setting, or reset it. Eventually my TP2 decided that it would use more tabs, after a few restarts and device resets where I doggedly kept changing the tabs up to 5. Very odd, but persist with it. I had to do this twice (once after a hard reset), it was a struggle each time, and I still have no idea why it eventually fell in line.

Hi ianjd
I found that the answer was to manually edit the opera.ini file in:
\Windows\Opera9\
Find the bit with Max Allowed Tabs.

Ah, thanks; that'll be useful the next time disaster strikes!

[UPDATED] Miri ROM update watcher.

Hi everyone.
I'm a BIG fan of Miri's ROMs, and because of this I was always eager to know when he's released a new version. I could obviously keep checking the thread where his ROMs are posted & discussed, but I wanted something to let me know as soon as he posted something, without me having to manually check.
With that in mind, I came up with the "MiriROMWatcher" application. Simply download the file linked below and follow these instructions to install it...
Miri ROM Watcher - download
1. Unzip the rar file and place the exe file somewhere on your harddrive that you're happy with
2. Create a shortcut to the exe file (right-click and drag the file, let go and select "Create shortcut(s) here").
3. Move that shortcut file into your windows startup folder (so it starts every time you run windows.)
4. Double click the shortcut, or exe, to run the program.
Once it's running, it sits in your system tray and checks Miri's page every 10 minutes to see if the page title has changed. If it has, the icon flashes until you double-click it. (Double-clicking opens the thread in your default browser, whether flashing or not.) Since Miri changes the thread title to reflect the version number, it's a pretty simple way of looking for a new version of the ROM.
This is not a flashy, user-friendly program - it's a simple app that does a simple thing. With that in mind, there'll be no config files or front end, and it will probably never be updated in any way. If it doesn't work for you, send me a private message and I'll see if I can help, but I'm not promising anything. It's such a simple app that it should just work anyway.
Hope it helps some people out. If there's enough interest I'll look at doing a mobile version, so you know of updates even when you're out and about!
Thanks all.
Edit:
I've modified the application to ignore page titles "Error Message" and "502 Bad Gateway". Whenever the XDA forum went down (for whatever reason), the app was seeing the error or gateway message as a new page title, and showing an update. It now simply ignores the page if it sees one of those titles. If you need to update the app, simply replace the existing exe file with the new one (make sure that the app is not running when you do this, or it won't work.)

MOD EDIT
As this is an application I've moved it to Themes, Applications and Software forum. I suggest you also post a link in Miri's threads

Cheers Spartan.

cool, he really deserves that attention. Great artist.

great thanks ...

Thanks my friend, I added a link to the first post of the ROM thread.

QuickGPS
Might be a silly question but is Quick GPS included in this ROM? if not is there anywhere i can download it from?
Thanks

wtf? wrong thread my friend!

what a cool idea!! cheers

hej!
nice idea about the ROM watcher! I usually use twitter to follow Miri, or

Now Miri has moved to HTCpedia, guess the app needs an update

[APP][UTIL]wmDownloader

wmDownloader v0.2​
This application allows you to easily download files from One-Click-Hosters like rapidshare. It can be used to download your files overnight without use of PC, but remember to plug your PocketPC to charger.
I recomend turning of not cheap GPRS data connection in case of WiFi lost connection.
Application using michyprima's manila SDK.
User guide:
After first start go to "Config" tab, select destination folder for your files and click "Save". Now you can add files in "Files" tab or by editing file "files.txt" and then reloading it using "Menu->Reload files.txt".
When you added some files you can start download process. Files will be removed automaticly from list after download.
Known bugs:
- not all rapidshare error messages are parsed
- directory browser can't create new directory
- some minor UI bugs like formatting timer
Change log:
v0.2
- code prepared for multiple upload websites
- added config for download folder
- new UI
- .NET CF 3.5 used
v0.1
- initial write

First
Nice idea, will test it.
edit: Works, but the problem with my device is , that i haven´t got a Storage Card, it called "Interner Speicher" on my german Diamond. So the files will download only to device storage -.-
Another problem is, that the device turn off, when I am downloading, so it would be nice if you can put in a function, that disable this,during the app is running.
And of course if possible more hoster support, for example netload, upload..

Thanks and this is another link

Rapidshare downloader.rar

Many thanks, elektro255, it simply WORKS!
There is a file, that for the past weeks I never got a chance from crapidshare to downlead it,I was thinking that the site will never give a slot for this file. But last night your lite tool did it. After about 20 times trying by itself, it downloaded the file while I was sleeping.
Here's some minor issues and suggestions:
Like others found, in my Chinese ROM, it created a folder and downloaded the file to main memory.
On my QVGA device, the font size for displaying details is too small.
Is that possible in future release to make it work with other sites like mediafire etc. I don't really have demand for this myself, but maybe others have better suggested site.
Last thing is that your app does not have an icon and the shortcut looks not good in start menu. If you want to keep the tiny size of it and does not want to include another file into it, you may just use one of the system icons that comes with shellres etc.
Anyway it already did what is expected to do.

Premiumaccount and "Speicherkarte" support - would be nice

Hi,
I made simple app to download rapidshare.com files over night.
1. App is just pre pre alpha version but works for now
2. I'm not planning to continue work on this app as long as it works fine for me [but if you have good idea what can be included in next version you can write on this topic]
3. For this app is required \Storage Card\ folder.
App written in C# .NET 2.0, tested on HTC Topaz
Downloaded files are stored in \Storage Card\Downloads\
Rapidshare links are stored in \Storage Card\Downloads\files.txt (after edit via external editor, app have to be restarted)
I advise to disable GPRS connection (to avoid big bill in case of wifi disconnected) and to conect charger

very good job done there pawel, open up your donation box mate ! you deserve a cherry

This software doesn't support Premium Account?

Software is working fine on qvga...but fonts are pretty small...if possible make it user freindly...thanks

Thank you for the excellent program. I apologize for my English. Not bad, it would be in the input line to copy-paste, and a great author, please do similar programs on letitbit.net and depositfiles.com. Many thanks in advance.

Thanks for the good job! Could you make it possible to choose the directory path to save the file?

Nice work Bro

Small little app but works like a champ!! Works just like rapidshare auto downloader (for those who don't know, just google it coz this is a really convenient software for those who use rapidshare often) but in windows phone version.
Nice job

I decided to continue work on this application. So v0.2 you can download in first post.
Currently I'm working to support other One-Click-Hosters like hotfile, so check this thread time-to-time.

This seems like a really neat program, will be using now!
Thanks a lot!

Search
Hey great idea, but yea writing the web address is a pain, copy n paste would be good, but how about incorporating search!!!
Maybe hook up to a few search sites, use their code, and then be able to click on it, which inputs the address into what you already have!
Just a thought lol
Poodz

The lack of copy and paste is the one thing that annoys me about an otherwise great application!

You probably know this already and it won't help you much neither because it is java but anyway... http://svn.jdownloader.org/projects/show/jd

Awesome! I really got impressed when I saw that somebody actually make a downloader for WM. I have a question though, does this work on non-touch devices? [i600, HTC S620/Excalibur]

Thanks for your time and help. I don+t have web page jet, i just planing how to do.

Hello again!
I still looking solution for my idea, because i don't wanna learning to programming.
This is my idea:
1. I build webpage (in Dreamveawer or Frontpage or WYSIWYG,...)
2. Export or compress or i don't know what to format, wich can i install to windows mobile or Symbian or Andorid phone. I know that this phones have diferent formats for installing. I create web page in diferenr resolutions.
Please don+t say, that my idea is Mission Imposible.
Thank you for your time and help.

I might be misunderstanding your question here, but it sounds to me like you just want the HTML file copied to the phone (and obviously any assoicated images). HTML files will run in the default browser when executed.

Thanks. I know that. Maybe can i make just one file from webpage, copy to phone and run, not 1000 files?

You mean like a .mht archive file?
They open fine in Opera, but not IE. I think that's the closest you'll get.

You can make .mht files in IE on your PC. Just go to file, save as and select "Web archive, single file (*.mht)" (it's actually the default file type for me.) It downloads all images and associated files and packages them into an archive file.
Good luck mate. If you don't have any luck, bite the bullet, get VS and learn C#. It's not a world away from JavaScript

Devdb archives?

Hello, since the removal of devdb, were there any efforts made to archive devdb content before it was deleted? Its such a shame that alot of hidden gems became lost media such as zit flasher got erased.

Technically nothing was deleted, the DevDB files just were not migrated to the new servers.

They are to be available again according to this post.
Any updates to this may be posted in Post #1 or Post #2

Finally had some time to set this up!
DevDB downloads are available here: https://devdb.xda-developers.com/

https://devdb.xda-developers.com/
Tip:
Search for a filename or a unique part of the file name.
After you find one file copy the link and paste it somewhere like a search bar.
you will get a link like this.
https://devdb.xda-developers.com/3/1/8/0/otterx-u-boot_v2.01.zip
Remove the file name and this is the link to the folder with all files from that project.
https://devdb.xda-developers.com/3/1/8/0/
Or you can navigate to folders 3/1/8/0 for example.

Server seems to be a bit unstable at the moment.
When using the search function after tapping 2 or 3 characters the website freezes (tested on Firefox Beta and Chrome stable,both mobile). See attached screenshots.
Nevertheless nice to have it and I'm sure that are just some starting difficulties.

same here, if you wait a bit it usually allows you to continue typing, or try pasting text.

Actually it is just not really meant for scale. The search is slow and likely involves a lot of Javascript so it's freezing the browser.
There are just a lot of files that are only important for a handful of people that I can tell, I wanted to keep them accessible. If anyone wants to mirror them, please let me know and I will rsync them to your server. It's about 2.7TB
