Super fast, stable...
Yeah, I have been using this. Much faster than the previous version I was using. It even plays BBC IPlayer, a little jerky but amazing non the less. Shame they screwed up the logging in for Megaupload but all in all a good upgrade and by far the best browser on WM.

Make sure nothing else is running (use something like wtask to close programs). You're low on memory, you could uninstall some stuff, get a lighter ROM?
Looks like its not that..
I got Errors when trying to use GPRS connection.
Over WiFi / AS it works like a charm..

ps
My ROM is CRC 13.00 only with HTC Home
Make sure you dont have a proxy server set.. Skyfire uses its own, and my prevent it from connecting.
I never use any proxy... where shall I look for these settings...

Crashing
Keeps crashing on mine. have tried gizmodo.com only but that should be enough...
I've been using it for a little while now and find it quite fast and capable. It hasn't crashed on me once.
I did have to fix the proxy server setting, but other than that, I like it a lot.
The only thing I noticed is that it seems to use a lot of battery. I need to do some quantitative testing, I usually use Opera and it seems to use the battery much quicker than even the latest Opera, but I think my battery's on it's way out anyway, so it's hard to tell. Like I said, I'll have to try them with the same sites and conditions. I'll report back if I find anything helpful or conclusive.
Anyways, so far this seems to be a great browser. I've been a very staunch/die-hard Opera user/supporter for years and this is the first time I've found another browser I would even consider replacing it with. Good show. Thanks.
edit:
BTW it's an 8525, a HERM100 currently running CRC's latest stable rom 13.1 pre 6 or something. Anyway, great app. Thanks again.

Don't u think skyfire "EAT" Power too much, my x01ht only last 1.5 hrs if using it.
"To do, or not to do" That´s the question!
I´m using skyfire to see flashstreams. For all the other, i use opera mini!
Opera mini is very fast and this handling is easy.
In skyfire you must zooming the links, ...
Always and always the same procedures.
This is exhausting!
After installing the newest version or a server update by skyfire i have a new problem. in 1 minute reconnected my browser 32x. i have since 6 Month an account. everytime i don't have problems. if i use an older version, the the same problems.
are you have the same problems?
Thats the newest skyfire 8184

Hey your most very welcome
Skyfire troubles!
NO sound....
Anybody??????
ya, i have no sound either.
worked few days ago tho
no issues with sound and skyfire, just listened to a song on youtube
if opera goes to a site it doesn't like, it will just crash. I check the running processes and it isn't running. I go to the start menu and try and run it again and it doesn't do anything! It isn't in the background...It's annoying having to reset the phone just to run opera again.. anyone have a fix or this happened to you before?
Yeah I had the same problem, gone back to using the old version mainly now, 9.5 seems to have stopped crashing since I disabled Opera Turbo in advanced settings though. If you've got it enabled try disabling it.
Edit: Just realised I'm talking about 9.7 beta, not sure if that feature's in 9.5 so you should probably ignore me
Opera Crashes
Hi.
I have the same problem. I thought that the problem was due to have Microsoft Net CF 3.5 intalled in the memory card but it still crashes after intall it on my HD...It's the Opera 9.5. Already tried the 9.7 beta but I have the same problem...
So if someone has the solution, you're wellcome!
I got this exact same, MAJOR problem.... A site which has flash / complex stuff like activex, or whatever, sometimes just sites with popups or somthing. BAM, opera 9.5 crashes.
It doesn't load anymore (sometimes) when started again. Any solutions?
Just the same problem on my HD. But I've found problems only with banks' websites.
had the same problem, after removing ati 3d driver the problem was gone
Don't have that driver, i guess. Any other clues?
What is the site which makes opera crash ? I'll check on mine if the same behavior happens
Also, what connection are you using ? 3G or Wifi ?
Flash plugin sometimes does that so try disabling Plugins from opera:config.
hi,
i got a similar problem, but it crash when I close Opera, blocking the phone.
I've noted that i can't close if java is active, but now it has started to crash all the time, without a reason.
it's quite anoying.
I have tried installing the flash 7 (now unistalled), and I have the Ati driver installed.
I could this be related? I'm planning to use the flash fix from other post and i'll revert of it work
Flashed NSFFAN's 6.5 v12, and works great for a day or two, then it freezes and losses all settings and deletes everythign! Soft reset or hard reset will get it to work teporarliy but it will only freeze again. Runing verizon radio 3.37.78. Any suggestions? Does anyone have v10 still? Might flash back to that. Thanks for your help.
Flash again... you should flash 2-3x when going to a new ROM to make sure it works right.
i have been running v12 for 2 days now and havent had any issues at all still smooth and very responsive
I'm having the same problem...I flashed twice and hard reset and still won't work properly after a few days. Is it because I'm installing games and apps that freeze up the rom??...I get frustrated when I have to restore all the apps and phone numbers from scratch repetitively...Is there anyway I could modify the autoconfig to change the settings to how I like them and have it install apps and games and restore my contacts using PIM Backup???....help pleeeeez!
NFSFAN roms support user customizations. Take a look at SdConfigGen; once you have it set up any time you flash it will install all your programs and xml provisioning files as part of the rom customization.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=411988
I installed v12 on 2 phones, with no issues. Both phones run flawlessly, and fast as hell.
Here's what else I have installed, mostly to the SD card.
Sprint MMS, Sprint DCD Carrier Cab, Pocket Earth 3.5 (slow) Skype, Team One's Reader 3, Fennec (it blows / VGA version I think), Sprint TV, Facebook, FIM, Cash Org 8, Opera 9, Efficasoft GPS Utils, Mobile Netflix, TT Nav 7 +USA/Canada, Warfare Inc, Tower Mogul, Guitar Hero IV, Arvale, Cops & Robbers, SPB Air Islands, Peggle, 5 more JAVA Games, etc. etc.
This ROM has been working absolutely great-
Here's some things I did that might work for other people -
Don't backup your old TXTs, Emails, Tasks, Appts or Contacts, and Don't restore them. Sync to google, MSN or an exchange server. I have my contacts, calender and appts. synced to Gmail and to my work's exchange server, it restores them all when you first sync. On my V-11 install I restored all of that from PIM Backup and it bogged my phone like mad / froze whenever I went into my texts from Titanium. On my V-12 install, I just backed them up but never restored- no more Text issues.
Pull out your SD Card prior to flashing-
Flash W/O SD Card installed.
Fully FORMAT your SD Card, install after all customizations run.
I know, the SD should not affect performance at all, but for some reason I had all kinds of crap on mine. When I formated and installed it like new on this last install, all my problems went away.
Been working awesome ever since.
Double Post- oops.

but how do I make modifications to the file?...is there a tutorial that has screen shots??... or even better a video??
Same problem here. I had very few apps installed.
I flashed 2 Sprint HTC Touch. 1 with problems and 1 without problems.
The one without the problem went from WM6.1 to WM6.5 V12 without any problems. I tried to troubleshoot by pinpointing software but it seems like it's a ROM problem.
The one with problems has been consistantly updated with WM 6.5 V10, V11, then V12....once at V12 it would freeze and HARD RESETS!!! FREQUENTLY! I reflashed it 4x and hard reset after each time....all with the same result...random HARD RESETS. I don't konw why...had to downgrade from 6.5 to 6.1 v1.12 spint
No real issues to speak of with the following:
I have
Resco Radio
WunderRadio
EZinput V2.388 keyboard
CAnalogClock, CFacebook facebook&FIM home plug in and apps
Memory status (Titanium system) plug in
Ccomm manager plug in
iContact
Core Player
Skyfire
Music ID
Activesync set up with my google account
Advanced Task manager
Rhodium HTC Calculator
I'm at around 45-48 mem usage on average when idle. i was using vista battery gauge, but I found it slowing the system and using battery for soem wierd reason.
PS: I know the plug ins show WiFi even though the vogue doesn't have it, but they are super useful none the less.
I have notice some flaws with the VZW 6.5
Contacts:
If I select a person that I want to call & if there are multiple numbers is where I notice the problem. I think the mobile number is the first option by default. If I use the D-pad to select say the work number the screen reverts back to the top of the contacts list.
Call History:
I can’t use the D-pad to simply scroll through call history. When I get passed the fourth number all the numbers are highlighted blue & the names become illegible.
eWallet:
If I need to look at a password key I should only have to tap the selection once but I have to tap twice. Then it brings me to the screen to edit the fields which isn’t correct.
These issues may seem to be relatively minor but I didn’t have these issue with the VZw 6.1 ROM
massive reboot
i've flashed my Telus CDMA with the WM6.5 V12 ROM and my phone reboot and reboot and reboot... i've flashed 3 times now and it still reboot again and again but only when i disconnect the usb cable, when it's plugged to the phone, it goes well but always when i disconnect the cable.. phone restart. What can cause that failure ?
One little thng I noticed is the icons on the left side of the call history screen is missing.
Got it to work
To fix the problem, I did the following:
-Went to HTC's website and downloaded the latest Sprint ROM.
-Reinstalled V12.
A couple of notes:
-I was using radio 3.42.50. After downloading the official rom, I have 3.42.30.
-I had to repeat the process twice because the first time I did it, I had no data. The second time through I verified I had data with the official ROM before upgrading to V12.

That would be the correct thing to have done in the first place. Flashing your own carriers radio and letting customizations rrun helps ensure your phone is properly provisioned. The difference between the .30 and .50 radio is virtually none. Back when the 6.1 updates first came out (including the 3.xx radios with rev.a and gps) people were updating other carriers radio's to get gps, rev a etc. Now that most carriers have had official 6.1 updates since last August or so that is not required.
The only possible exception might be the verizon slaves with the gps problems.
Both browsers on my Tilt2 (IE and Opera) seem to have some serious problems where the screen is at times unresponsive or extremely slow. This seems to happen in 3G and Wifi.
Actually, I saw these types of problems in a review at: http://www.infosyncworld.com/reviews/cell-phones/htc-tilt-2/10602.html which said: "Nowhere did the HTC Tilt 2 give us more trouble than in the browsers. Both the standard Internet Explorer browser and the Opera Mobile browser gave us serious trouble, with an unresponsive screen that always took numerous taps to register a click on a Web link. It was a very strange issue, as finger scrolling was much more responsive. But when we wanted to click on a link, or when we wanted to tap the address bar to change our URL, the phone would require multiple taps, which was a seriously annoying issue."
Have others experienced this? Is the phone a complete lemon? Is anyone aware of a what could be wrong and/or a fix?
Experiencing the exact same thing.
At stock, don't expect the TP2 to run flawlessly, and this device is certainly not a lemon. Flashing a custom rom to this device improves its usability, and even functionality in some areas, But of course, it depends on the rom that is installed. It would help to scour these forums as there are numerous fixes and enhancements for the WM platform that'll make you enjoy it
I am not expecting it to run flawlessly. I assume, as you are with T Mobile, that you do not have the Tilt2. My experience with the Tilt2 is that both browsers are just non-functional given the complete lack of responsiveness. I understand that there are many things that can be done to it, but it seems like it should simply not be operating like this out of the gate. I would be pleased to do what I can to increase performance, but purchasing a new product that is not functional with the goal of enhancing performance should not be acceptable. Please understand, that out of the box when I click on a link many times it simply does not work and when it does, it often takes minutes to connect (in some cases worse than a throw back to dial-up connection speeds). If this is what Windows Mobile has come to, as a consumer device it really will continue to become obsolete with a very small user base. I am hopeful that it is not WinMo as I have had Pocket PCs since they came out and hope to remain faithfull.
That said, I have done a considerable amount of searching in the forum. If there is something you would recommend for this specific browser issue, I would very much appreciate the reference. Thanks.
While I wouldn't say that Opera is "unusable", it's definitely slow. I've read on the forums that Opera Mobile 9.7, which is currently in beta, seems to be significantly faster. Though, it lacks Flash if you care about that sort of thing.
I haven't tried it yet but it seems like a worthwhile shot.

Do any of guys use skyfire(this by far the best option), also check the proxy setup, Third just heads up, when I was selecting diferent option packages from ATT they initially screwed up my data connect and I was getting block out of there proxy, once this was corrected all is well but Skyfire is still the best released product.
Skyfire works, but its not very clear unless you zoom in. I have Opera beta but you can't use the zoom slider and its only marginally better.
Iris (God rest its soul) is okay but its not fast either. I wonders why none of them are cutting the mustard.

I prefer not to use Skyfire because it's completely insecure. I went to my fantasy football website and found some other user's session logged in. Had I wanted to be a jerk, I could have dropped all of his good players and replaced them with players from the Detroit Lions.
Seriously, though...if you use Skyfire be very careful what sites you visit as all of the data is rendered remotely and will be seen by others.
CAVEAT before I begin: I had pretty good connection with Opera (on 3G) out of the box.
As others have said on this thread, first thing is to disable the AT&T proxy (Start\Tools\Proxy Manager\Disable Proxy -- then soft reset), unless you want to use AT&T's Media Mall and other bloatware that requires an Internet connection.
In Opera the proxy still sticks unless you manually edit the opera.ini file. See this post here for instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4771442#post4771442
I had to do this, or Opera would not connect at all under Wi-Fi. Speed also seems to be improved.
It sounds, though, that you're speaking more about screen sensitivity. It seems that you have to zoom in more (than on a Fuze, at least) to get a link to actually respond when touched. This may sound simplistic, but note that when the Tilt2 boots up for the first time (or after hard reset), it does not run through the screen-alignment process as the fuze and other phones do. Go to Start\Settings\System\Screen and do the alignment -- it helped a bit on my phone. And every little bit counts...
SLLLLLLLLOW Browsing
I've very disappointed with the AT&T Tilt 2. I've tried several ROMs but the MS IE is slow in all of them. In some of them the Opera gets download speeds of over 1000 kbps. However, the MS IE is usually down around 300 kbps.
This is unacceptable. I used the same sim in my original AT&T Tilt 1 and I get 1200 kbps. What gives??

That's been my experience, too. Even with an excellent 3G connection (a megabit usually, or close to it, and sometimes better than that), and with the AT&T proxy disabled, both Opera and IE are utterly unusable on my Tilt 2 with WM 6.5.
And I can't blame Touch-flo. I don't even use it.
As a result, I run Skyfire as my default browser unless I'm in a place where I can't get a strong 3G signal. Then I switch to Opera Mini. Both are fast enough to keep me very happy.
I've wasted too much time trying to get Opera to do anything other than annoy me. Try some cooked ROMs, or switch. Otherwise, you're wasting your time.
i agree
I dont even bother to tap the links anymore, i navigate through them using the arrow keys and then press enter. I find them completely unresponsive to taps.
concur that the browsers suck
Too bad that there isn't a safari port....

just bought mine yesterday and it is un-usable taking 20-30 min. to access and sign into my ebay account is pretty much un-usable. My 8925 wasn't the fastest but I coud access the web w/o taking 2-5 min per page. I took my iphone back thinking this would be atleast as good as or better than my 8925,boy was i wrong.And now they tell me I only get one return(iphone) so I am stuck with this beautiful p.o.s.

i also experience problem with it. My experience seem to be that if I have both IE and opera running together, it will cause the unit not responsive. So far, I kind of stuck with IE as it seem to work better than opear.
Try the Opera 10 Beta, it is masses better than Opera 9 as far as interface experience and speed. never liked IE mobile and skyfire has potential but still feels unfinished.
Opera 10 has a really nice tabbed browsing system and is finger friendly. haven't seen any responsiveness issues. The other thing to consider is what else you are running in background, is Opera 9 still running in background? it could be slowing everything else down.
BRETT
I have T-mobile TP2 with 6.5 stock rom. I just add data plan to my phone recently. I notice that my opera mobile will not work any more if connect via wifi but it works with 3g connection. Skyfire, skype and all other programs work with both wifi and 3g connection.
I have opera mobile 9.7 and just install opera mobile 10. Both of them cannot load any page with wifi connection. I also uncheck everything under proxy setting in config menu.
Any suggestions to fix this problem?
Thank you
I have the same problem. If I find out something, I will post it here.
Make that three of us
Please post if you find anything.
Thanks
Yes, Please. Just discovered this today. IE isn't working either. Yes, I disabled the proxy. Other internet apps working fine, just not my browsers.
Use Skyfire It's Better Than PIE & Opera IMO!!!
One can only assume if none of the other browsers are working that skyfire would't work either haha
Worth a shot. Also.. I dont know if you've tried but back up all your info (contacts and whatever else) and do a hard reset. Then test and see if that fixes it.. I would say with 100% certainty that it will.
Then just load back on all your ap's.
Drastic but beats sitting around waiting for someone to happen stumble across the thread that has a fix.
Going to hard reset in the morning. Got some other broke stuff from trying out too many cabs, so might as well. Been getting a lot of error reports the past 2 days, too. Will report back.
Well Skyfire & PIE Work Perfectly Over Wifi For Me Opera On The Other Hand Works When It Wants 2 Over Wifi
OK, I hard reset and this is still not working. No Opera or PIE over Wifi. Any clues? I really don't want to install another browser if I don't have to. Alos, can't find the cab to make Opera exit on X instead of running in the background.

Man Trust Me Just Use Skyfire You'll Never Turn Back To Another Browser Ever Again!!!
I had Skyfire on my Incite and didn't like it. Why do I need to login to an account to use a browser? The stuff that came on the phone that is taking up space on the ROM should be able to work with both Wifi and MediaNet. No reason for it not to.
Have you guys tried using any other builds of Opera 9.7? There are a lot of different builds available here on XDA. Just search up "Opera Thread" and you'll end up with a thread containing links to download most, if not all, releases of Opera 9.5, 9.7, and 10.
If it were just an Opera problem, I might try that. But it is a problem with PIE, as well. That leads me to believe it is a Tilt 2 issue.

I have done the changes, tested IE, Opera, Google, Bing on AT&T 3G network (H with the .cab) and wi-fi, and everything works great! My speeds have jumped over 1.5mpbs consistently with the outlined changes, and all internet data apps are extremely responsive now. Youtube downloads load in less than 10 seconds, and no jumpiness. MobileTV is the same now, before, kept buffering or got distorted every 15-20 seconds.

Here's what I learned while getting the HTC YouTube application included in the OEM AT&T ROM to work perfectly.
The value in the registry needs to be modified:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\YouTube
ProxyName = wireless.cingular.com:80 (default value) needs to be replaced with [BLANK].
This value is intermittently restored, so it is nececssary to change a few others to prevent that.
The value at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\SUN\JVM\PRELOADAPP
proxy = wireless.cingular.com:80 (default value) needs to be replaced with [BLANK].
The value at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{EF097F4 C-DC4B-4c98-8FF6-AEF805DC0E8E}\HTTP-{436EF144-B4FB-4863-A041-8F905A62C572}
Proxy = wireless.cingular.com:80 (default value) needs to be replaced with [BLANK].
The value at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Apps\Esmertec Java\Properties
com.sun.midp.io.http.proxy = wireless.cingular.com:80 (default value) needs to be replaced with [BLANK].
Changing these three values will prevent the YouTube proxy from being restored. However, this will prevent the Opera Browser from connecting when the phone is connected via Wi-Fi. In order to fix this, the value at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Defaults
ByPassProxyForNonGPRS = 1 (default value) needs to be changed to 0
