what do i need to install on to my xv6800 to see videos on website..i'll try and go on a certain website and it says you don't have the latest flash player installed..but i can't find what to install..i have all the youtube crap to watch those video..but is there something i can download to see flash on websites??
You gotta use the stickies = search Xda using google
Dude... you gotta use the search function for this website, or you could have just google'd that sh!t. It's been an issue for years.
You cannot watch embedded flash videos in Internet Explorer Mobile (IEM 6). Maybe we can hold out hope for Windows Mobile 7/Windows CE 6. (but I doubt it).
You could wait for the Opera Mobile 9.5beta to show flash or you can sign up for the beta testing of Skyfire.
So far skyfire is the only successful browser I've used that does it well.
I've moved this thread to Titan as it does not belong in Titan Upgrading. In the future, please read the announcements/stickies prior to creating threads/posting.
Skyfire works great but the zooming feature sucks it's a little slow.

There are a lot of threads about this subject but somehow non of them where able to help me to get embedded Flash in websites.
I've installed the Flash 7 ActiveX plugin, installed Flash Lite. Together and separately. Reboots, instructions from this forum and instructions from Adobe.. nothing seems to help. I use the latest PIE and Opera Mobile 8.65.
When I visit www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/ in PIE I get a message that Flash version 7,0,70,0 is installed but without the embedded Flash element you would expect that says "Adobe Flash Player is installed.", like on a PC. When I visit the same page in Opera I don't get any messages about successful installations.
Is there something I'm doing wrong? If you need more details about somethings; let me know...
First post here... please be kind...
Actually, I've been looking for such a solution myself. Very easy to test my own website (www.LauraBraniganOnline.com) since I have Flash snippets on the top of each page that I purposely coded to read down to Flash 5...
Had an Axim x51v, Flash seemed to work OK... now got rid of that when I got my new AT&T/Cingular Tilt (HTC Kaiser), their latest ROM but hard-resetted and soft-resetted so I don't get AT&T's extra crap... btw doing this works fine for me.
But have Flash Lite 2.1 developer installed, had the Flash 6 installed, now have Flash 7 ActiveX installed, nothing works on any other browser but PIE (believe it or not, have Opera Mobile 8.65, MiniMo, and NetFront all installed).
Being from Philly originally, love to listen to KYW-AM news radio over the Internet, works fine on my laptop, dies on my new Kaiser... assuming that CBS coded their latest player at a Flash level higher than 7.
ANYWAY... what with all that background (are you all still awake... ), I'm wondering if there are any other back-end, side-end or otherwise workarounds to get OTHER browsers than PIE to read at least Flash applets coded for 7 or below... at least until the behemoth that is Adobe decides to actually give the incredibly exploding numbers of Mobile platform users a Flash player that actually works with WM6 and its growing number of non IE browsers. Heck, you'd think if they were so eager to push the Flash technology on everyone on the planet after buying out the much-loved Macromedia (I still use my good-ol' copy of Macromedia Dreamweaver!), that they'd have a mobile solution that actually works for those of us who still think that Microsoft is doing their own mobile users an injustice with a PIE that hasn't changed nearly at all from the old Pocket PC 2002 days...
Sorry for the rant -- spent about 5 days searching for a solution... and either I'm missing it, or it's really hidden... or it just isn't there yet... maybe we haven't bribed Adobe & Microsoft with enough $$$ to actually have them work on this...

HOW do I watch YouTube vids on my Mogul by HTC? I tried downloading the flash player. Didn't work. PLEASE HELP!
Search The Threads!!!!
You are looking for TCPMP player and flash video bundle.
HTC's Streaming Media is good too. It uses YouTube Mobile quality, (a good amount more compressed,) but it streams great. I prefer TCPMP.
I followed the article written at Treo Central and it works great on my XV6800.
http://discussion.treocentral.com/showthread.php?t=148801
Attached is FlashVideoBundle 1.4.4 and TCPMP 0.72RC1 for PocketPC. I used these CAB on my phone.
Are these the latest versions, or do they work the best??? And thanks for posting them.....
How to make PIE appear as IE...
have these files installed without problem...but my pocket IE always goes to the mobile versions of websites not the "real" full site...i have been searching but have been unable to find the appropriate work-around...any suggestions?
Download Vtap to your phone. Works great and loads very quickly. Video quality is fair.

Yes, as of now these are the newest versions. In terms of performance I have not tried any other versions.
I used Opera Mobile before my trial ran out (after the rom upgrade I can use it for another 30 days, then might pay the $24). There's an option to identify your device to websites as a desktop computer, so you don't automatically get forced into a "mobile" version of a site such as YouTube. Opera Mobile also supposedly has a flash player built in, but I haven't tried it.

If you go to youtube mobile and scroll down the page, there is an option to view the normal site. from then on your browser will take you to the regular youtube site.
Try typing this into your browser www.youtube.com/?nomobile
all of these are good...

Help with tcpmp.pocketpc.0.72RC1.cab Install
Hey everyone I,m needing some help, just started tweaking my Tilt moble, and when i unzip the TCPMP.pocketpc and put it on my phone theirs no RUN SETUP_ file.
What am i missing how do i run the .cab file
I tried to find an answer in the forum, but either it is an obvious question or i did not understand it (i am new to the WM world).
I simply do not see the whole page content, and i can not "click" on some of the visible content, probably because it is flash.
I checked at macro-media site and found there is an application but according to their info it supports only WM5.
Can someone help?
I am using many applications designed for WM 2002 which work just fine. I suggest you to try that one.
Can name few?
Ok. I installed the marcomedia flash support for IE, and works. Yet IE is by far slower than Opera. Is there a solution for Opera?
there is flash lite 3.1 in the development and hacking section of the forums, but i'm not sure if it works for diamond yet. :/
you can try though.
I am having this problem too, for example on Facebook if someone has posted a video that is not hosted on Youtube i cannot veiw it as my browser doesnt support flash. I have had this problem on a lot of web pages that have anysort of video on them even tho i have installed the latest flash.cab on my device is there a work around or is it just something we will have to make do with untill a newer version of opera is released?
Install this cab :

The guys of skyfire has released it. You dont have to register for the free beta.
Skyfire v0.85 The best internet browser
Description:
Skyfire brings the PC internet experience to your mobile. Watch videos on YouTube or Hulu, connect with your friends on Myspace or Facebook, shop on Amazon, or listen to music. If you can experience it on your computer, you now can do it with Skyfire on the go. Skyfire is fast, easy to use and available for free for many smart phone models.
What is Skyfire?
Skyfire is a free, downloadable mobile web browser that allows you to experience the internet on your phone exactly like on your PC. Now, you can use the full web from your mobile phone with unprecedented speed and simplicity – without the typical restrictions and limitations that current ‘mobile web’ efforts offer. It’s “The Web”, not some mobile web.
A brand new browsing experience.
Mobile browsing exactly like your PC.
With Skyfire on your phone you can for the first time ever shop, watch web video, listen to web music and stay connected on your social network -- just as you would on your PC. We're talking about full-featured PC versions of your favorite websites. Skyfire gives you speedy page loads, full audio, images and video. From Myspace, Facebook, YouTube to Hulu - it's the full web experienced on your phone.
The real web, served-up right.
Unlike other mobile browsers, Skyfire supports the desktop version of Adobe Flash applications so sites, including those that serve-up video and music, are rendered exactly as you would expect - just like your PC. You will instantly recognize the content, be familiar with the page layout -- which is not true for most mobile browsing experiences. We support all that's good about today's web - not just Flash, but also Silverlight, Ajax, QuickTime and more. And even better: Skyfire evolves with the newest capabilities without you having to do anything.
Go anywhere, see anything.
Not only do we deliver video and audio, we also deliver everything else you routinely do on the web. Get maps, check sport scores, view weather forecasts, read the news, check flights, and stay active on your favorite social networks. From the Top 10 of websites all the way down to the obscurest of pages - you'll do it all from your mobile phone just like you do on your PC.
Blazing fast.
Skyfire is faster than any mobile web browser you've ever used. You'll load web pages as fast as your PC and eliminate the long delays and error messages you get with other mobile browsers. Don't take our word for it, check out this bake-off by Laptop Magazine and see how we handily outclassed the iPhone 3G.
Easy to use.
It's easy to experience the PC web on your phone with Skyfire's clickable content and intuitive navigation. We know it's a small screen and that's why we made navigating intuitive with full screen, thumbnails and adaptable zooming modes. You simply and quickly get to exactly where you want to be on a page - navigating at speeds that make the experience enjoyable.
Quick content and simple search.
All the places you routinely visit are a click away. We have handy links to popular websites on the start page. Your bookmarks and your browsing history is just a click away. Better yet, you can even bookmark your specific view (zoom level, position) of content on a web page to get exactly to the right place in one click.
We made search simple. Use our nifty SuperBar to perform a search or enter a URL from a single field. We even suggest the most commonly used search keywords as you type. Plus the search results are from Google and Yahoo and are presented in easy to read tabs for each category: web, images, and videos, and maps. Simple and it's all a click away.
Plenty of handy features.
We're always adding new features as we roll out our beta releases. Recently, we made it easy to share and easy to find mobile sites.
Discover something on the web that you want to share? Now you can send it to your friends from Skyfire via a text message. We even shorten the URL to easily fit into a single SMS text message with room to spare for your own words.
Don't like the big web page on your small screen? Want to go to the mobile site instead? If we find a mobile version of the same site, Skyfire lets you know - then you decide if you want the mobile or full website. Simply look for a 'Mobile Version' link at the top left of a page. Skyfire even renders iPhone specific web sites nicely.
On the phone you own - and free!
You can load Skyfire on your existing Windows Mobile (version 5 or 6) or newer Symbian Series 60 phones in a few steps. In a matter of minutes, you can install it either over the air or via your PC. It's free - what more can we say. No need to buy an expensive new phone and get locked into a new contract just because you want a better mobile internet experience.
DOWNLOAD IT http://rapidshare.com/files/167088634/Skyfire_7927-PPC50.CAB
Come on now! This is NOT development & hacking material. Not to mention, of course it's free!

Many have been aware of it since the development started. I'm not saying you can't post it, just do these types of post in the General forum.
Also, I suggest removing your download link.

you are right champ but here is so many software that should not been here and a first "free" skyfire beta is really interesting.
I installed the cab but skyfire finds no connection ? It starts searching and runnes hsdpa on my polaris but i only see "connecting..." but nothing happens. Is this still limited for US citizens ? or only for wwe ROMs ?

Shouldn't be limited to the US, Skyfire's page gives the option for users outside the US and doesn't require the login anymore.
EDIT: Looks like they only have US, Canada, & UK listed for avail countries. Not bad though, ESPN loaded in under 5 sec, video playback is decent, but I still hate the UI.
0.8.5 does not work for me, in France... go back to v0.8.0.
Phone : Trinity
i begin to hate this skyfire idiots. why does a application ony run in three countries !

It's likely to do with regions. I tried accessing www.hulu.com from it, knowing that it won't work on a desktop browser as I'm in the UK, and guess what? Doesn't work as it knows I'm in the UK.. As all pages are pre-rendered on the Skyfire servers, that means that I'm being served by a Skyfire server in the UK. If I were being served by a US server, Hulu would have worked.
:bah
no wvga support
Skyfire works great here in Canada!
Got to get used to the browser but, overall, it's decent.
Well, it's a good FREE alternative to PIE.... no tough to beat
Im from Mexico and Skyfire works very well on wifi
I have a Blueangel
Skyfire is good. I have tried the previous version which didn't support surfing via-proxy setting. Has this version fix that?
correct me if I'm wrong..but this has been out for at least a month hasn't it? I've been using it for at least a month
last version doesn't work!
ok it installs loads then dont work just ses locating and nothing happens this is over wifi and it works as im posting this via opera any ideas?

No, because some of the Opera builds have been redeveloped by users here, not to mention the work it takes to obtain the builds. Skyfire is a free app for anyone to download. Big difference, pay attention before you decide to argue with my point.
Thanks daniel2020,
Now I can use Skyfire in my country, as I can't download it in the official website!!!!
It is working here, but there are a few considerations: it is not real VGA, Opera is, opera is more zoom friendly.
I'm trying to watch my favorite TV-show at this address: http://ingurapresei.antena1.ro/ but my HD2 won't play in any browser I tried (IE, Opera, Skyfire). What am I doing wrong?
I don't think Flash Player works on the HTC HD2 ie Browser yet, but i could be wrong.

You are wrong matey - it does
It needs a later version of flash than the one that is installed on your device. Unfortunately, it's the latest version for windows mobile. Until a newer version comes out, there will always be some flash objects that simply won't play.
Sorry.
I'm surpised you say SkyFire doesn't work though. I never use it personally, but everyone else seems to rave about it as a flash player.
reinstall skyfire...it will work....
I reinstalled Skyfire and now it won't connect to internet although Opera does. I tried downloading Skyfire from PC and from device and then installing but no luck in any cases. It still does not connect and keeps on poking me with an error message that daoesn't let me close skyfire from menu and forces me to End Task it.
Ok. I got it working but it still doesn't play the videos. Please go to that site and tell me if it works on your device.
post link to flash player
post link to flash player that works please. TIA
