Flash for HD2 - HD2 General

Hi all,
I just saw this video http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/mobile_demos_fp10.1/popup10.html of Google nexus and I am quite surprised that we can play all the games of miniclip in this phone.
Is there any way we can install flash or something to play these games in HD2

thanks for the info. from where can I get these two software

just google skyfire
it'll be the first link there

HD2: Skyplayer, Skyfire & Silverlight
From what I've seen for the HD2 Skyplayer does not work on the Skyfire browser, something to do with the silverlight installation not exchanging id information.
Also the full Silverlight installation won't work on Windows Mobile 6.5. It is only for Windows Phone 7.
Inessence there would appear to be no way to watch Skyplayer on the HD2. If anyone has a solution to this please can they post a reply?

found adobe/macromedia flash player 7

Sorry if this is old news but I've been looking for something to play flash on my XDA for a while but I couldn't find a mention in any forums, so I tracked this down on the adobe site
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer_pocketpc/downloads/player.html
again sorry if it's old news but you never know someone else may have been looking for the same thing
Edit reason - realised people may skip this if they thought I was looking for a copy rather than I'd found one, also attached the file just in case it disappears from the adobe site
won't play
i've downloaded the flash player and installed it..but i still can't watch videos from youtube??? any suggestions on how i might fix this???

You're right! I was looking for this. Many thanks.
Actually for watching youtube videos flashplayer 7 is not enough, because, if I am right, the video streaming feature (which is used by every video site) has been introduced only in flashplayer 9.
Hi,

BBC iPlayer?

Hi,
I have searched the internet and as far as I'm aware, there isn't a Windows Mobile app that plays the BBC iPlayer.
I have notice that the new Nokia N96 has this functionality.
Is their already a windows mobile application for the iPlayer?
If not would it be feasible to have an application similar to the youTube one?
Thanks

Iplayer Not Possible On Any Phone..
BBC IPLAYER ACCESS ON DIAMOND/ANY PHONE NOT POSSIBLE...
THE ONLY MOBILE BROWSER CAPABLE OF DISPLAYING THE LATEST FLASH ETC IS SKYFIRE,BUT SKYFIRE USES AN AMERICAN PROXY SERVER WHICH CAUSES "MUST BE IN UK TO WATCH " ERROR
THEREFORE BBCIPLAYER IS NOT POSSIBLE AND WONT BE UNTIL SKYFIRE CREATE A UK PROXY SERVER (NOT FOR A LONG LONG LONG TIME)
I have had a go at this (unsuccessfully). I even tried spoofing opera's user-agent to an iphones user-agent but although I got the iphone version of the iplayer website, the streams would not play. (there was some text visible about requiring a plug-in)
The BBC rather too accurately detect the flash version. I've just a similar problem with my Ubuntu 8.10 install until I rolled flash back to version 9.

iPlayer to synchronise shows on PCs and phones
The BBC's iPlayer service will synchronise downloaded TV shows across all your PCs and mobiles, as part of a forthcoming integration with Windows Live Mesh, writes Barry Collins in Los Angeles.
a valid point merrica
although,this mobile integration of live mesh and bbc iplayer
http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/233295/iplayer-to-synchronise-shows-on-pcs-and-phones.html# is good ,its still not what we need as it is limitied to what you have on your home pc,its exactly the same as using orb or any other mobile-streaming app....the point is real-time bbciplayer access wont be possible for a while
(i mean going to bbc iplayer and randomly choosing a show.i.e. tonights eastenders..this wont be possible until skyfire has a uk proxy option)
You do know that you can
download programme content from the iplayer website an then upload it to your phone and watch through WM player. It does need to download the DRM to your phone.

I think the majority of people here would like to stream directly from their devices.

I tried doing this for the first time yesterday, but when I put the file onto my diamond it would'nt play the file due to DRM. you put that it needs to download the DRM to your phone.... so how does it do that?
It'd be nice to be able to stream it straight to the phone, but i'd be happy to download the shows that I want for now, but don't know where to start with DRM??
open in wm player and should auto download opening both ie and opera for some reason. both pages will be blank. please note this takes ages sometimes
I have managed to get the N96 / Samsung I900 streams to work fine on my X1.
http://blog.artesea.co.uk/2008/11/b...-the-x1-or-even-the-diamond-or-touch-pro.html
Can you test with your Diamonds?
it seems to work but the iplayer service keeps going down,so i will try again later and hopefully get to see a stream.
I've heard that iPlayer seems to work fine on the latest beta of Skyfire, which also plays youtube flawlessly. Here is the review of skyfire (http://gadgetmix.com/index/?p=1476)
Iplayer on wm6 with ease
Skyfire Beta is now available to anyone in the uk. I downloaded it the other day and can now view any website including Youtube, BBC iPlayer, Joox, gamesloth and so on. It runs the webpage from thier systems and you view it on your handset. give it a blast. its free.
ive been using skyfire for a while,i would just like to see other browsers having this capability,
Maybe in opera it might sit the picture on the screen a bit better without having to rotate the screen and stuff.
Is anyone getting sound from the bbc iPlayer on Skyfire?

I got sound on my X1 when using SkyFire. There is an option in SkyFire to disable/enable audio, also double check the iPlayer has the volume set.

Flash Player

Just got a htc Touch 2.
Installed opera mobile v10b2, works great. Having problem getting a flash player for it. Can't play video or flash games.
Tried adobe site. v7 doesnt work on our wm6.5
It installs but still dont play video on iplayer etc
Any advice...?
You should try skyfire. It works pretty well on my mega. There are a lot of videos on youtube about it. Hope it helps.
Thanks for the reply htctouch2PT
I tried Skyfire... and my response was.. "eewww"
Compared to Opera10, its really a mess. It reminds me of Yahoo homepage from back in the days.
Anyone else got any suggestions on where I can get flash player fro opera mobile10?
...or if Adobe are going to release a new version of flash player for ppc

You need Opera 9.5 / 9.7 and this: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544770. I've personaly installed it on my Mega and works flawlessly with YouTube.

Watch flash videos on news.bbc.co.uk?

Hi
Can anyone tell me if I should be able to watch flash videos from the BBC news website? I am using stock opera 9.7 and I can't view them. I know that the device is not flash 10 compatable (gggrrr) but am unsure if I should be able to view the videos embedded on the bbc news site. Can anyone else??

It used to be possible to play them in Internet Explorer, but I've a feeling the BBC may have changed the format recently. I don't think they'll play in Opera Mobile 10, either, even though that does have some flash support. Your best bet is probably to use Skyfire.
They work in IE just fine for me, even the watch live streams for bbc2 ,3 etc work the only videos that dont work for me on the BBC site are the Live bbc 1 stream and iPlayer which show green and garbled stuff
Opera has never worked on the bbc videos for me at least, always moans about no javascript enabled or wrong version of flash
just tried to use IE and when I click a video IE crashes and closes. very anoying.....
Try, http://get.skyfire.com/.
thanks, i have used skyfire and it works ok but seems v slow compared to opera. I was trying to see if its possible just to have one browser that does everything! I guess not. It's very annoying and the only thing that really niggles me about the HD2. You'd think browsing would be the thing they'd really want to sort but no..... we still have to use 2 or 3 browsers depending on what we want to do. A bit of a joke really......
I hope some clever bod here can somehow get flash 10 to work on the HD2 seeing as it now seems that Adobe aren't!! I wonder if I could sue adobe? You spend £300+ on a handset as they say the HD2 will be the first WM device to support flash10 then a few weeks after I splash out they announce that they are no longer doing so!!! ggggrrrrrr

Good luck!!! untill WP7 and then the adobe flash release for it your going to struggle. Did i say struggle?! i meant suffer.
But at least it's better than what the iPhone has, which is no flash at all. There is a reason for it but i'm on the beer tonight and i can;t remeber the exact details but it has something to do with most sites running flash 10.1 and WM can't thanks to MS missing out a couple of API's in WM 6.5 that were planned to be there.
With IE mobile you can play flash. Only if it is on youtube.
Surf with IE mobile to www.pocketnow.com or wmpoweruser.com and click on one of the vids (linked to youtube). And volia it plays in HTC player.
I have not had any issues with flash sites in skyfire, what sites in particular where you having trouble with? the youtube app is best too browser youtube with but i havent found any site that dont work which require flash when viewed in skyfire :S
Hi,
I've just installed uZard web browser and it's played everything I've thrown at it - it even plays flash games, not just videos.
Cheers,
Inclement

Oh dear, looks as though the spin doctors at Adobe have got to you. Have seen flash 10.1 running on the hd2 and it looks great (have a look around the devs section on adobe website for video). Adobe binned it because there was no point in spending any more time, effort and money in releasing it for "a dead os", and came up with that excuse which, rightly so, points the finger at M$.
