PIE "save picture as" saves very small pixilated picture

Hey all,
I've really been trying to find a solution to this and searched a lot. I think it has something to do with the USER AGENT thing, and changing the registry, but I can't get it to work.
So PIE loads all pictures on the phone, automatically squishing it or formatting it for the hermes screen resolution. That's fine, but when I save the image, it ONLY saves it at that small, pixilated crappy resolution. I can't zoom the picture.
I think this is somehow linked to the whole "can't post on myspace" thing, because I can't post on myspace either haha.
I'm using the Black 2.5 right now, but tried Custel's 1.2 and had the same issue. When I used Black 1.2 or 2.0 it was NOT an issue.
This happens whether or not I use PIE Plus.
I know where the information is on the WIKI showing the reg edit to change the user agent so the web thinks you're using a regular desktop browser, and PIE Plus has this option to change in it's options as well, but it's not doing it.
Is there some other registry key or whatever that i'm missing that tells the internet how to format its information?
Again, I searched and looked and tried and hacked and regged haha, but did not find a definitive answer to this. MUST POST TO MYSPACE ON MY PHONE!!!!
Thanks.

anyone? i'm willing to donate some moolah... i need to figure this out before i hack back down to 1.2

check your pm's

thanks. i don't like opera though. the scroll bar on the right doesn't work at all and i don't like the interface.
the only reason i'm persistent here is because it actually WORKED at one time with no problems! all i did was change the user agent in the reg and it worked after i set it to make the net think it was windows xp.
but on these latest roms, it doesn't work.
i know there has to be a solution here.
thanks though!

scroll bar doesn't work? which version were you using? Also have you tried minimo? Not a fan of it personally but might work for your needs?

minislo is too mo... I mean... yeah.
I bumped back down to black 2.0 and PIE is perfect! man I may have to stay here
there's gotta be a reason it works here and not higher...

sorry to up my own thread,
but with black 3.5 now, the myspace posting works, and gifs work...
but jpegs still display as formatted to the screen size, and when saving the images, they are much smaller in file size and resolution.
for example, a normally 111kb file is only 25k when saved.
there has to be a definitive answer to this!! and i can't be the only one trying to look at po... uh, pictures and they don't display well.

I've noticed this behavior when I have the Cingular proxy enabled. My understanding is the proxy compresses images in order to speed up load times. Once disabled, images appear, and can be saved, as they should be.
Perhaps you have a carrier proxy enabled?

ugh... n00b question of the millenium
how do i disable the cingular proxy from black dymond?

Artemis Touch 4.01 Not keeping time & other bugs

Hi, any one know why my clock constantly slows down and I need to set the time again ? It is not an active sych issue... it just slows down.. looses time..
Everything seems to be working other than that on my arte110....
But.. the touch cube/ flow stuff... would be nice if there was some instructionst on that because I dont see any of that happening on my phone even though I got it set to default in the touch flow settings....
No animated cubes or other stuff inn navigation.... Not sure what it is exactly supposed to look like...
the only animated feature is the contact list and the opera mini , as a page loade it slides in... cool,
But other than that opera mini sucks...
it can hardly search this forum.....
and no tabbed browsing or selecting, copying text...
it is however very fast.
And isnt there some sort of function holding down the buttons to the phone vibrates? Would be nice to know about how that works....
Zoom on the camera doesnt work at 2 mp setting...
media player part of the home screen seems non functional...
And what is this hibernation feature?
BTW, it seems that when my screen is dark the phone stops keeping time...
I hope I am not missing any calls durring this time....

The TouchFlo configuration utility clearly lists what you have to do to make it work, the best setting for me is the top to bottom option, never fails

considering it's a beta, it's a million times better at browsing the web that Pocket IE. Can't expect everything and surely not from a beta at that.

Frees up extra ram, that is all
You just need to take the time to explore the features this ROM has, there are a lot of applications included, some may not be to your taste, and others you'll think are fantastic(like hbutton), if there is a specific application you need to find more about, try searching through the forums or on google, there is a lot of information out there regarding most of the applications, unfortunately we can't expect Meschle to produce a lengthy instruction manual detailing each and every single aspect of his ROM, part of that is the expectation that the people using custom ROM's should be able to figure out the nitty gritty details.
Of course the forums are here to answer questions, but it is also a repository of answers to the questions already asked. The TouchFlo one has come up many times.

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.

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!!!.

Email and flash?

Hello all,
I'm a noob in winmo and smart phones. Didn't want a smart phone until the start of the year where my business started to get busy. I needed to respond to clients sooner even when I'm on the road. I did not want to get an iphone as I did not want to be just another guy who has it. lol.
I almost bought a palm pre but did not like the keyboard I looked at nokia smart phones but didn't like it either. I then saw the TP2's keyboard and fell inlove with it.
Not knowing what winmo is but I was set to get this phone. I am so glad I waited for this phone because it passed my expectations and the fact that I found this website (checking it everyday now), this phone will do what I need it to do and entertain me (tweaks) for quite some time.
Anyway, that is my intro. I have questions regarding email and flash using IE.
I have 2 email accounts setup on my phone. My first account (gmail) doesn't have an email at all. I received couple of emails 2 days ago and I'm surprised to see that its not there anymore. My wife's iphone can see all the messages in the gmail server even the sent mails. Is there a way to have that same setup on our phones?
And lastly, my understanding is that IE has flash support, however when I was looking at a website that has a flash video, all I see is the flash icon with "9". Can someone steer me to the right direction?
I know this is quite long but thank you very much for your time. I am really enjoying my first ever smart phone, winmo and this awesome website. I hope I can contribute to this site in the near future

Thank you very much for the email settings and thank you for the link.. That's really what I wanted, something to read and understand it on my own.
Have a good one.

WillardZ:
Thanks again for the link.. I realized that I've already read the page page that you linked, so did you mean that I need to flash my stock rom and use another install another rom to have the ability to view flash websites?
I am actually trying to wait for this guy to make a bloatware remover on Tilt2 before messing with other ROMs (as much as I want my phone to be very fast)
Thanks
niM

Have you tried using Opera Mobile instead of IE on the site? I find that that Opera usually plays flash videos better than IE, even though they use the same flash plugin. For example, YouTube plays fine on Opera, but shows the 9 in place of a video on IE.
As for the page previously linked to by WillardZ, I think he thought you were talking about flashing ROMs. There is no requirement I am aware of to flash a new ROM for browser flash support, unless there is no flash at all included in your ROM (not the case here), in which case you could flash to one that does. I hope that clarifies it for you.

DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
Thank you very much for clarifying that.. I tried using opera mobile on www.videosbyccp.com The main page has flash video and I can't even see the flash icon, its completely blank..
I'm going to try to download skyfire and I hope that works..
Thank you once again..
niM

Dave or anyone,
You said you can view youtube videos no problem using opera. However, mine says ..
"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Download flash player"
I checked my opera setting and javascript is checked the whole time. So obviously some of my settings are different from yours and I hope you or anyone would like to help me.
I installed skyfire, although my wife can play farmville (very laggy), I'm hating the crappy display..
Thank you very much.

xda forum pages reloading when interacted with in chrome?

So this is a pretty weird problem here.... I've noticed that whenever I'm browsing these forums on my Note 3 (it also seemed to happen sometimes on the sgs3 as well) I will run into this problem. What happens is when I go to a page that lists threads or forums, so a device's main page, the main forum page, or a forum itself, the page loads fine but when I actually try to interact, be it zoom in so that I can see things easier, or scroll down, or even click a search box, the whole page will begin to reload. Then once reloaded, half the time I can use the page without it happening again (all though hardly ever on the sgs3) and the other half of the time it would just happen again. The only way to keep it from happening that I found is to simply load the page, then when I go to interact with it I just do so near the top of the page so that if the thing starts to reload then I can quickly tap on the x button to stop it. If I do this then it won't bother me again like that on that page. I can scroll or type or whatever. But as soon as I go to another forum, device page, or even the next page of the same forum, the same thing , will happen.
Does anyone know why this is happening and any way to correct it? Is it an issue with chrome itself, as this only seems to happen on chrome, but my issue there is that I like chrome abd o especially like the way my bookmarks settings and passwords are shares across my own personal devices. So any ideas to fix this? It's driving me nuts! Oh and yes I know I could use the app but I'm just not that fond of it. I've even bought the premium one to support the forum a little but I'd just rather use the browser. Thanks for any help....I'm sure some others are experiencing this issue.

Using stock browser on my Note 10.1 it does this every time I try to use the XDA search. Havent tried it on my N3 though.
Anyone know how come the N3 stock browser acts like Chrome when you zoom? I cant figure out how to have the text format to the page either.

I shut off Java on the mobile chrome browser and this issue stopped.

I like having java though that's such a limiting way to deal with the problem
Where is this button Tony it's talking about? I don't remember seeing any buttons hardly in chrome.....
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Yep happens to me too. I can't stand it. I find Firefox works best. It never refreshes like that.

Yea every other browser works fine except chrome it Is stupid as all get out.... what can be done to fix it I don't want to stop using Chrome because I use the bookmarks all the time etc.... it's just much easier for me to use Chrome for like 99 percent of the stuff that I do.... so any ideas? What is this auto reload feature that one guy was talking about? I've never heard of or seen it anywhere in chrome...has anyone else?

Thanks....at least that fixes it.... though you lose a couple features I guess it is what it is until they fix it that is.....

Thanks for the workaround. I also bought the premium app and i feel ripped off because it is really, really bad.
They should not activate a default setting that is bugged on a browser most users browse these forums with!
