I tried this application on my Touch Cruise, but Opera is getting too slow to work with, infact, it will crash and have to soft reset.

LooL.... Be carfull of PornTube.... I have heard its a trojan site that requires you to download a file and run it, in order to play its nookie movies !
Nogs
BTW does the Touch HD come with flash lite 2.x?
If so, do you have to remove that first before installing flash lite 3.1?
Nothing to remove... Just install flash 3.1 on your device and it goes!
Put it on and took it straight back off again.
Works on Youtube - just about - but not on iPlayer or anything much else I tried for that matter. On Youtube it's choppy and imapcts the interface. I also had my SIP pop up everytime I tried to zoom or pan the page. I may have seen a fix for that somewhere in the Forums but frankly can't be bothered as it's not that much worth having as it stands.
I appreciate this is close to cutting edge stuff but it's taking an age to get this sorted for Opera.

tried it, its not compatible with the screen resolution, I was using this on my Kaiser and its by far the best browser I've tried. It does indeed play embedded flash content
My only disappointment of the HD so far, lets hope its updated soon.

i shall from now on,bombard those skyfire developers on their website with requests to make it compatible with the touch hd ha ha..yeah hopefully there will be an update soon
The thing is that this flashlite version is just a leaked version of the original adobe one, which is still not released yet. we will have to waot a bit until they release the real verion which should then work without a prob
Sorry but to get this straight, are you saying that if I install this on a touch HD, its Opera will no only be able to support flash, but in terms of hitting a you tube video link, it will play in the stand alone you tube client a'la safari and iphone?

it means that youtube and other java based things will work like on your pc. so the youtube videos would run in the youtubepage without the need of opening the youtube application, even java games and more should work. but ofcourse, you can always watch youtube videos with the applicatiuon if you like.

Did you relly opened "get.skyfire.com" in PocketIE?
Opened with IE 6, gettin the "Locating.."
I installed the latest version on my Diamond but to be honest I am not too impressed by the resolution.
Is there a setting that enables vga mode? All the fonts and images look stretched as if it were QVGA, anyone else got this problem?
I think I might give this a try. Just wondering if anyone had any opinions when comparing it to Opera???
Here's the cab for you. If it will violate against the rights of the owner please feel free to delete that post (to mods) or tell me and I'll remove the cab.

Opera is FAR better as an everyday browser in my opinion.
I can see Skyfire being useful though, especially if browsing websites that have a lot of streaming media and flash. It's also quite good if you use sites like digg/reddit.
Facebook sucked and the homepage didn't render as it would on a PC so that was dissapointing, but I visit facebook using the iphone.facebook.com URL via Opera and that's quite good.
The application is supported by VGA devices like the Diamond, however, it certainly isn't optimised for VGA, as you will notice when you install and run it. The buttons look stretched, fonts don't look right and when zoomed out it looks quite pixelly
It's a good concept, however I feel that Skyfire has a way to go before it can compete with more stable browsers like Opera which is far more practical.
hello xda community,
iam a big fan of crunchyroll.com and mysoju.com
but i cant watch videos from both site on my hd.
i have Dvha79 AdobeFlash3.1 plugin installed.
but still both sites saying "You eihter have javascript turned off or an old version of adopeb´s flash player"
is there any flash plugin which allows me to watch videos from both sites?
hi,
you won't be able to get a flash plug in to get those flash streaming sites work , it has to be special mobile site , like the you tube on the htc touch hd or the bbc iplayer which works fine with the opera , only if you live in UK , you can also get Live streaming from iplayer BBC NEWS 24 , click on your htc touch hd , should also work with other windows mobile phones like touch diamond / htc touch pro / vario 4 , site is : www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer , when you choose a video to play , a video player pops up and plays it in there.
Good Lux
try the wvga fix3(thread on here with the cab for it, just use the search) and skyfire browser.

does skyfire support flash for those video sites?
is there no other browser which u can directly watch videos from video sites like crunchyroll.com etc?
to download skyfire, use your phone navigator and this address :
get.skyfire.com

Thats simply not true. You have to use the right Flash and Opera version. Personally I'm using build 2392 with the flash mentioned above and it works just fine.
I really hope Skyfire comes out with a wvga version. I really like that browser. You can hit most flash sites with no problems.

Yes, I fully agree with you. The flash streaming is the best so far. But, just don't understand why it only available at north america. It should be release the beta to all the countries.
instead of dling skyfire from their site and using the wvga fix, search the xda forums for alpha skyfire (it's fullscreen and looks great)

You got Flash running together with Opera? How?
hi all is their any way to get sites like youtube and facebook working with flash,
Try the Skyfire browser, runs on my Kaiser a treat. If my HD2 ever arrives i'll be using that. I'm pretty sure there is an Opera Flash Fix though on this site.
I do not own a leo as yet but definitely intend to.
What happens if you install the Flashlite 3.1.cab floating around the web.
I have tried this on my HTC HD and flash works. I can open youtube right within the browser. For those who own the HD2, does this not work there.
Thanks
Guys,
You do realize that the HD2 comes with the You Tube ap pre-installed.
All you do is from the Start menu scroll down to the You Tube icon, click on it and it then loads a selection of videos.
From here you can do all manner of things including a search & most viewed today.

did you check this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544770
this should work.
I think flash movies runs on IE6. If you are just after flash movies, then just use IE6 to view those sites. I don't own a HD2 yet but I will do when it comes out in Hong Kong in time for Xmas.
that fix doesn`t work for me, because hd2 is not supported device yet...
Flash Lite is there, and Opera certainly supports flash, it's just a matter of enabling it. It's been the case with most devices (Flash works in beta ROMs and doesn't work in release ROMs, probably due to some licensing restrictions).
fixOperaFlash doesn't work because Opera settings on the Leo are stored in the registry, and FOF patches opera.ini, which is missing. Somebody just needs to read what it does and apply the steps intended for opera.ini to the registry.
At worst, you can replace Opera executables with a previous build, although enabling it properly is definitely better.
hi all tested skyfire and it isnt fully working as it seems it runs in 400x240 or less and stretches the picture and icon e.c.t.
everything looks zoomed in and horible

I saw a video on PocketNow.com. The guy says it works like wonder. Take a look at their videos on the HD2.

That's what Skyfire does, I'm afraid. So it's working as well as it can.
BTW, there's a FAQ in the fixOperaFlash thread that explains how to add support for HD2, you just need to update fixOperaFlash.ini and rerun the program. After that you should have flash support in Opera.

Should add that to the sticky, seeing as so many people want to know how to add flash to Opera
So did it work for you? I don't have an HD2 yet, so can't test myself.
I have just posted a message on that thread, stating that it kind of works.
Ah, OK. I think this is as far as it will go, current mobile Flash implementation isn't complete and doesn't support ActionScript or something like that required to pass the full Flash 9 test. It will work in most cases though until Adobe updates mobile Flash player.
ok so to get this fixOperaFlash working on the hd2 i need to install the latest version fixOperaFlash v1.5.3.0, and then add this to the ini file
[Touch-HD2]
Custom User-Agent=HTC_Touch_HD2_T8585 Opera/<version> (Windows NT 5.1; U; <language>)
UAProf URL=http://www.htcmms.com.tw/gen/HTC_HD2_T8585-1.0.xml

is it this simple?, as skyfire is stretched on the wvga screen
You'll need real values instead of <version>, but otherwise yes, it should be that simple.
confirmed, it works... just download fixoperaflash.ini fili and copy it into your windows directory... then run the tool, and soft reset device...

I doesnt work with flash apps that have input fields, and they dont know if they will ever support it.
Just wait for Flash Player 10.1
I hope that will resolve all the flash issue on mobile devices forever.

Hi Nick,
I'm guessing you are using the bundled Opera 9.7 to browse these sites?
If so, the Flash 3.1 for Opera (I got it from the X1 forum) seems to work for a lot of the sites on my HD2, but there again, I use Skyfire now anyway.

hi nick, flash support for hd 2 has been dropped. it was going to be upgraded, there was even a vid done by the official guys showing the soon to be released version working on our phone playing internet videos and playing flash games but its all been dropped in favour of the new windows 7 phones. sorry to be the one to give you the bad news bud.
