I searched but I can't find anything on this. I have a few games that I can't run because they open up an internet explorer page that says I need embedded visual basic. I thought I have heard before that embedded VB is not compatible with WM5. Is this correct? Is there any workaround to enable these programs to run?
For example a fun game I used to play on my Toshiba e300 a couple years ago, Icy Maze, gives me this error.

You haven't searched my articles, have you ( http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/in...e_on_the_application_you&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 )
Here it is: http://msdn.microsoft.com/mobility/windowsmobile/downloads/evb.aspx
Here you go..
I modified the CAB file to allow installation on WM5. I tested it and it does let you install, I can't say if it will work with your programs though.
you can try this too : http://www.omnisoft.com/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=543&PN=1
Awesome, thanks guys! I tried Kyphur's version of the cab and it works beautifully! I now can play Icy Maze and other great games that have not been updated.
Note: Must install this to main memory. If you install to storage card it will complete and say successful, but it won't work when you go to run the applicable program.

Are any of these great games freebies that you can share with us?
(Note that I am not asking for Warez or Cracks but Free/Shareware).
kyphur, I guess the link I posted doesn't work because you must have to be registered. It works for me but I am registered. Sorry I mislead you

No need to apologize but I would recommend that if you post links that require you be a regisered user then please mention that.
I try to limit the number of site I am registered on.
A good site to help you limit wasteful site registrations, if you don't already know, is BugMeNot ...

The default (latest) version will also work with WM5 - it's just that you can't install it on storage cards.

There're a lot of eVB games (see www.CeBeans.com for a LOT of them). I, however, would look for Death Drive first, as far as really decent free titles are concerned See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=282115 for more info.
Game Recomendation?

There were a lot of games on that site, among other things. The only problem is they all look the same or are very similar in gameplay.
Looking at your blog, it seems that you keep up with PPC gaming pretty well. I'll be downloading Death Drive tonight. What other freeware games do you recommend for the Wizard, in general? I'm not interested in trials, crippledware, etc.

Hello kyphur,
Do you know if it is possible to do the same thing for WM6 smartphones version?
Thanks!
i can not find the cab. an i can not figure out where to look plees put the cab up for download here. i have a Mio A501 if it helps
I have a MDA Mail and cant use your VB Runtime because my windows mobile version 5 is with a Featurepack for messeging ans securyty.
Can anybody help me?
I have tried to install the .cab to MainMem but the install terminates almost at the end after showing the error: Failed to load resource DLL MSDAERNO.DLL
Does anyone have any ideas??
Alright, Picsel didn't sound as Taboo on this forum as it does on every other forum so I figured I'd share these. If it is Taboo please just delete the files and I am very sorry.
Below is a rar containing the files from Picsel Browser 1.0.5 (The new one from the i760) with MUCH MUCH MUCH better CSS support. These work fine on my mogul when Picsel 1.0.0 is installed, but don't seem to work at all when Picsel 1.0.0 is not installed first. Maybe I am missing some registry values? I grabbed these files off a i760 demo I got to play with today. If anyone can make a complete everything you will need cab for this that would be awesome.
-Anthony
EDIT: CAB by FAMAN:
Admin edit: File and link removed due to legal complaints from picsel.
Still stops flowing after going into the settings screen
is it me or i cant find the cab and the exe in the folder doesnt work? how are you suppose to install this
Inside \Windows\picselbrowser.exe
But I believe this is a retail product, you might get into trouble for posting this from Site Admin.

Yes, the registry values are missing. Someone care to make a cab out of it? I'll do it when I have the time (if no one has done it yet before I get myself some time).

doesnt workon my 8125 and i even have picsel 1.0
works on wizard, crashes on google.
it installed fine on my wizard, and ive been running the original picsel 1.0 for a while, and had little problems with it. Installed this version, havent noticed any significant improvements. One major issue is that it appears to crash as soon as i direct the browser to google.com or any varient e.g google.com/pda etc. i think i might switch back to v1.
thanks for all your effort tho!

It's not a retail product but an OEM; that is, even if you wanted, you can't purchase it. Therefore, it's tolerated and no removed.
Adin edit: we've received legal complaints from picsel stating they do not want us to host or link to their product since it infringes their I.P.

U just need the cab file from the first post, just tried it on my elf (touch) and works like a charme
@Cobra2: Thanks! I have now tried it myself and it seems to work much the same as version 1.0.0. For some reason, the darn thing just doesn't want to flow.
@Everyone: Anyone got this to flow so that the text is the right width for the screen?
@chriskaragainnis: However, Google is not crashing on me. I wonder if chriskaragiannis isn't being redirected to the google personalized homepage with all the ajax code on it. Did you set it to announce as ie7?
[email protected]: Nevermind. Guess I'm just an idiot. It is flowing now that I know which button to push.
It crashes when I try to load xda.....
it crashes in 90% of the times in my elf, it even displays "memory full" error...

Skyfire 1.0 Released Today:
What’s new in Skyfire 1.0
Improvements specific to the Skyfire 1.0 release include enhanced navigation,
zooming and interaction as well as faster launch, power optimization, and new search functionality. Having previously delivered rich media and text readability on a small screen, the focus of this latest release was helping users get to the
content they want more quickly.
As the new version starts-up, users can type a search or URL in the Superbar
even while Skyfire is connecting in the network. After a web page loads, smooth scrolling and zooming – similar to an iPhone – helps users navigate the page more quickly. Likewise, now users can click on links on the first page load
without having to zoom first.

I'm going to install this myself and I will report back shortly on whether or not they've made the jump to true VGA.
UPDATE: Skyfire has NOT gone true VGA, it is still a QVGA image stretched to VGA... Quite disappointing... The load time however does seem to be greatly reduced...
NOTE: See page 2 (post 12) for solution to

Had the same problem as well. Found a solution on the Skyfire forum.
Go into:
applications data/skyfire and rename the file "pref" to "_pref"
now restart Skyfire and it should work fine.
There seems to be a problem with the autorouting code which should detect which country the phone is currently in.
Hope this helps.

Skyfire uses Firefox on their servers to render things, or at least the Gecko engine.
As for the browser, though, I'm more and more disappointed. While it was my only real option on my old Q9H, on the VGA Fuze, everything in 1.0 looks blurrier than it did in the previous release and 0.9 wasn't exactly sharp either.

That's because the app is rendered in QVGA resolution then stretched to VGA, what you're looking at is 4 VGA pixels for every 1 QVGA pixel it would normally display. It IS still the best solution to the "How do I use flash sites on my PPC?" question...
The Good:
It's fast
Plays Flash
The Bad:
QVGA resolution only.
No tabbed browsing.
Bookmarks apparently need to be manually typed in.
Menu size is small (in general not finger friendly)
Zoom is clunky (default zoom is too small, max zoom is too small, zoom works by button presses instead of slider)
I'll stick with opera and my dedicated YouTube app for now.
Good looking out for this, wasn't able to get the 1.0 cab from get.skyfire.com
https://marketplace.windowsphone.co...64c-d514-4d91-85df-a512bc37c1cd&wa=wsignin1.0
But the stupid marketplace isn't working for all regions so it doesn't show up on my phone marketplace.
Any kind soul willing to extract the cab and put it up for us?
It is discussed for some time in thread which by coincidence appears at the moment right under your thread. It even has the same subject !
Also CAB is on opera homepage, no need to host it anywhere.
Someone please close this.

Is it only me who has the feeling that nothing is changed and have excel not working? When I open xml file, I get error and then excel crashes.
Yea, i have feeling that nothing changed too. About excel: it works, but on wm6.5 preinstalled office it gave me error on opening random xls files which worked without problems on PC. I havent tested with 2010 yet.
It looks like it's only on WM6.5. I'm not brave enough to flash and cook yet.

Why don't you try different browsers, you say you already tried IE, what about Opera Mobile 9.7, Opera Mobile 10 beta 2, Skyfire 1.5, ...?
Toyjeep,
You probably have not heard from anyone because no one can help you.
Have you asked someone else with a different phone to see if they can get onto the website? If they can I would suggest you do a hard rest of your phone (after backing up your data first) then loading up net cf 3.7 and see where you go.
Another thought; what version rom are you on at the moment? Version 1.61 is out, albeit not officially released yet. It is said that it solves a whole host of problems. You might find it helpful to go down that route.
Can't suggest anything else I'm afraid. Sorry.
