i try to go to youtube.com and it keeps going to m.youtube.com.. can ne 1 please help me?? I have the isp.cingular connection i'm using too.
Been getting the same thing, and trying to figure out why. I would love to know what the deal is. I was hoping to see how the plugin works with the wifi and all that.
As usual
Hello
I'm not an expert, but I can tell you that most of the important web sites, look for the users browser to render the site for them in the best way possible. When you go to google, maybe cnet, hotmail, en others, they recognize you as a mobile surfer, so they know they can't give you a 1024*768 website version. Instead, they give you acces to their "mobile version web site" with less width, graphics and texts.
Youtube has his services for mobile users in m.youtube.com, the videos are not flash videos like the full web site and you dont have full access to ALL the videos. They stream you videos instead.
By the way, it seems that My ATT8525 doesn't have the codecs because I couldn't watch any videos in youtube.
It's a registry key that determines whether or not you go to the wap versions of websites, connecting through wap.cingular.com or isp.cingular.com doesn't make a difference.
I found the key after a lot of searching, but I don't remember now which key it ultimately was. Also, I don't recommend changing it. Pocket IE was downright broken when trying to view the full versions of these websites after the key was changed.
Instead, I recommend hunting around for Picsel Browser, which is a far better solution for viewing fullsized webpages on a small screen. I'm pretty sure it was posted here somewhere so you can brush up on your searching skills and find it.
An even better browser for these things would be Thunderhawk. Thunderhawk is not free, but there is no question that it is the best.

Whats weird is now that I can go to the website, I can't use the FlashVideo Plugin for TCPMP to play videos off youtube. I had it working and now neither my treo or my 8525 work. Its so odd, anyone else have this?
it stinks... I also get the mobile versions for like espn and cnn.com

how good is the gps on the vogue compared to a standalone gps unit - both running either delorme or tomtom?
would you need a holux bluetooth gps receiver to be effective? thank you!
I'd like to know if you have any problems with Astronavigator on Touch HD.
I have installed it and as soon as go in the menu for changing location, the application freezes
I'd also like to know if there's any similar program, which uses gps to define current location...
Tnx
Andrej
Same for me: app freezes
yep
fine till you change location - then freezzzzz
here the same...no sulotion in the pas half year?
here the same...no solution in the past half year?
I've tried running Atronavigator on both HTC shift and Touch HD, the stuff just freezes.
But... if you de-select all the stuff on the map, once in a while, you can get to the location part, I was even able to get a fix one time and see the soft. as it should be.
On the shift, it's even harder to get it working, one must reboot, kill activesync,kill all the other stuff like GSM/Radio, kill the stars, planets and the rest and..
you might get lucky once in a while...
possibly it's due to the origins of my file...
Same here; just freezes when trying to locate position or even when wanting to input position manually on Touch HD
Hi,
It's Working with WGAFIX.
WGAfix ?
I guess you mean WVGA Fix(.cab) to switch to VGA, I first was confused into downloading WGA fix for XP :-(
This looks like the place to get it.
Incidentally, the freeze happens with the version legitimately downloaded from vitotechnology.com. I sent a request to their support 3 weeks ago, and then by email, haven't heard from them.
The previous version (astronavigatorII 1.2) works fine though...

Not sure if this is the WVGA fix your talking about
yeah, that's the one. I find that I need to do a soft reset to switch back from VGA to WVGA with that program, but that's fine.
The good news is, once you've set the astroNavigatorII location in VGA mode, you can return to WVGA as everything else works, and it 'cookies' your location. So, as long as you don't move to a distant location, you'll be able to enjoy the app.
Wow, I've been looking for a suitable app that can rival the iPhone's Starmap. Doesn't look like Vitotechnology are too reliable though... No fix for the problem in however many months, and no replies to tech support requests?
More annoying though, I go to their website and find they have an iPhone app themselves called Star Walk 3.0 which has all sorts of goodies like GPS/Digital compass etc, whilst the Astronavigator app for Windows Mobile phones seems to be stuck in a development freeze with a location feature that doesn't even work properly on our phone!
iPhone virtual machine?
from what I can judge, Astronavigator is nowhere as impressive as Starmap, still more expensive, no editing, scant documentation. The navigation / screen gestures are also quite confusing. Haven't used Starmap though.
I guess what we need is an iPhone emulator running under WM6
Okay, im just curious about this. I've read all over the net (and this forum also) that your X1 is bound to crash one way or another. Sometimes i read that people can have 2 or more crash everyday, which i think is quite strange.
My X1 fortunately never crash up on me. I surf the net, use wifi, listen to music, use the GPS via Garmin, chat on yahoo messenger and even watch a full length movie on it. Fortunately it just never crash on me. Not on a normal use anyway...
Speaking of which, i've tested my X1 also, to see until which point it might actually crash. I surf the net + Activate garmin + chat on yahoo + listen to music + occassional sms in between, and the phone is still doing fine.
It does get pretty laggy at times, but the point is it's still very usable.
here is all the apps that i've installed on my X1 (as in remove program thing):
Astraware bejeweled 2
Astraware Sudoku
Xperia Tweak
Garmin Mobile XT
Google Maps
HTC enlarge start menu
J.S Advanced config
Slick
.Net CF3.5
All the panels
the only bug that i have in my phone is the one where i cant add the speed dial. But this doesnt concern me because i just dont use speed dial anyway.
So im just curious, how does your X1 (if ever) crash up on you?
Oh and one more thing, im still using the R1A original ROM.
mine crashes whenever it sneaks out in the middle of the night and steals a car.
doesn't seem to have got the hang of cornering yet...
I have not updated to the latest ROM.
My X1 crashes when I leave it untouched for a period of time. The battery will be hot and no matter what button I press the screen just won't light up.
I'm trying to update to the latest official ROM now but I have no idea how to use the SEUS thing. -_-'
My R1A crashed about once to twice a day.
What I had installed is pretty much what you had plus TF3D HD as panel from itje, PlumSIP (Chinese input), SKTOOLS, SPB Shell.
It got a bit better when I switched to Daran's TF3D but that had problem of itself. And I started using SKtool's memory reclaim in the back.
Now I'm on R2A and its virtually crash free. I've yet to try TF3D as I'm waiting for a solid TF3D 2 solution as cab.
So al fingers are pointing to TF3D at the moment. Shame because besides being the best eye candy, I've also found it to be the most useful including SPB Shell
im on r2a. mine doesnt crash but hangs occasionally.
ironically its everytime when im showing it off to my frens. sometimes the screen just hangs.
wanted to show a video to my fren today when out of nowhere the video and all other videos cant be played. had to soft reset..

the million dolar question is, do you have TF3D installed on ur phone?
TBH, i'd love to get TF3D installed on my phone, but for some reason i just bound to know that it's gonna cause me problem anyway
Can we safely say that the crash free ROM is actually the official ROM now?
Or maybe someone else use cooked up ROM but still actually run the X1 crash free? leave your experience here...
hey, i wanted to know is there any app available to play the facebook texas hold'em poker??
Yes there is - it is called Opera
I can never get facebook poker to work with opera on my diamond.
I have flash lite installed, but it still says you need a newer version of flash to run it.

I have RealDice Multichampionship Poker and love it, and I believe there are Facebook users on there too, they share the same backend. Check it out at realdice.com.

have you tested it or you are just posting something???
i looked for it for a long long time...sorry...didnt find anything...
why only iphone users have it?!
btw the only solution i found is using LogMeIn to play on the phone from my pc..
I use sky fire its works good its not perfect but it does the job
yeah, skyfire is good.
Just a heads up - signed up to tvcatchup.com (free) and thought i'd try it in the skyfire browser and it works. not perfectly but not bad and well watchable.
more than 40 uk channels
Dude how did u log in with skyfire?... Whenever I try and use iPhone.tvcatchup.com on my Leo, It only shows the username box?.....
Did u use the desktop site, if so, how do u view full screen. Cheers dude.
I used the skyfire mobile browser (version 1.5.XXX) - and could log in to www.tvcatchup.com no problems. (wasn't using iphone.tvcatchup url just the standard site www.etc)
I'd already set up an account for tvcatchup on my pc before i'd tried logging in on my phone, don't know if that helps.
was watching some of the villa game on bbc last night with it!
The only difficulty i had with skyfire was it wasn't recognising me as being in the uk... so iplayer would'nt work....fixed it by deleting the prefs file that's in the install file/folder of skyfire and it now works pretty good.
Ive tried using the iphone site before, it just gives you a stream link but its .m3u8 which our phones cannot play even coreplayer ive searched everywhere for it.
just have to use desktop site on skyfire a bit jutery but watchable

TVCatchUp on HTC HD2 with Skyfire
TVCatchUp on HTC HD2 with Skyfire:
install skyfire whith the RADIO TURNED OFF, if the radio is on, skyfire then defaults the connection to 3g instead of wifi, re-install skyfire when connected to wifi and it will then work, in landscape as well with BSB Tweak, i have now had it working on 3g and wifi, and it actually runs better on 3g/h than it does on my home wifi.

Works for me, although the experience is not quite as polished as the desktop version. Still find myself reaching for the laptop to watch streaming TV atm...
Using WebTV much much better. it has 1000s channels from around the world.

oh just a touchpro 2 user, searching to see if there was a better option than using skyfire? Still looks like a no

I've just downloaded the myPlayer app which is just what I was looking for. It has all of the live channels if you are within the UK (BBC, ITV, Channel 4, and more). You will need CorePlayer though.

Landscape appears after soft reset of HD2 and is automatically invoked when turned on its side
I have myplayer installed on my hd2 works great but not as big a channel selection as tvcatchup.
But tv catchup now has some sort of bug through skyfire as it keeps saying none uk as the skyfire servers now direct you through us servers.
Can anyone sort this.
Sorry for caps didn't realise until i finished typing. Not going back & writing it all out again.
Cheers nedster
