hd2, skyfire browser, tv catchup error - urgent - HD2 General

hi there,
last week i was admitted to hospital, there is no tv here, after slight improvement in health thought id use my hd2 to watch tvcatchup..
tv catchup keeps giving me "none uk" error msg for each uk channel, i live in london, uk btw
i noticed even on the advert there is no sound, there is hissing noise..
prior to updating ROM it worked perfectly, even once or twice after flashing ROM
the ROM i have is energy rom
radio version is 2.07.50.27.2
skyfire server is 10.102.120.111
i have made sure my location is UK, uninstalled n reinstalled skyfire, ensured im not using a proxy..
my internet however works perfectly
pls help im desperate n going out of my mind, i have access to the net via hd2 only but really wanted to tv, please, please, please, help me
thanks in advance

what about using myplayer.

lemme try thanks will report back shortly

You'd probably be better of using http://m.tvcatchup.com/ rather than through skyfire, direct rather than through a server, could be the problem or your Rom, I used to have the same issue, could be the locale or something in the rom as I used to always get .de as the standard end to typing an address into internet explorer rather than .uk, hope this helps and you make a swift recovery

thanks for the tip, which browser do u use? its jumping too much in opera, better then nothing i knw but still hard to watch in low quality..
better then myplayer service which didnt even work
before changing stock rom tv catchup worked a treat in skyfire gawd kns wat they did, shame when u need these smartphones to work they dnt so wats the point in having them!!!
any further ideas wud be appreciated - cheers

I just use internet explorer, log in through link I posted previous, select my channel and quality then loads up in streaming player.
Just a word of warning, be careful of your data plan, that site got me way over my fair usage policy (about a week into the billing, damn world cup!) which resulted in my connection being severely capped during peak times, hope this helps.

Tcpmp Youtube Help

Can you guys help me out? Im haveing a problom, I have owned a Q, a Htc touch, and now i made a switch over to the Mogul.
On all these phone i installed Tcpmp and its flash bundle and got them to work on the first try. But for some reason i cant seem to get it to work on my Mogul. Could somebody please upload the correct files? I might be using the wrong ones. Good lookin out, This forum is Ill as F$%K and you guys get super props
Youtube for the Mogul
Dude, try a google search for the RvBCrS_HTC_Streaming_Media.cab. I have the mogul and tried all of the other options found in the forums to no avail. I finally came across the HTC player and I have had no problems watching videos from youtube mobile. I actually have the cab but got a problem trying to upload here pm me if you want it from me.
Or if you want a better solution, you could just download the program called vtap. It is working great on my Mogul, and its easier to use than TCPMP and Flash plugin (which i used to use). just search vtap on google.
The files you're using are correct, I use the same ones (TCPMP and FlashVideoBundle). What do you mean by not working? Perhaps some specific details would give us more clue on what the problem could be.
when I click on a video it takes me to its comment page. my bundle issent working cause it usually installs a e explorer page with othe compatable sites but that doesent show up.
Here is the ones I have, you can try it out and see how it works, it works great for me but I do have the htc 6800 from alltel not sprint. Just remember to change the file associations in the settings to include mms and http protocol.
Just try to do it all over. Uninstall everything. Install TCMP..then the plugins...then restart ur phone and try it again.
ALOT of people are using the old flash bundle. It wont take much searching but on ppcgeeks there is a newer version. It worked out alot of the kinks and I get flawless youtube and google vid. Make sure you are using the .17 rom as well. The original Sprint rom sucks hudge balls and has tons of problems with video playback.
Here you go. This website updates every time youtube changes its files.
Maybe this will fix you right up.

Skyfire on the X1?

It looks as though the new Skyfire beta supports 640 resolution. Is there any workaround to get it to run on the X1? Even if it isn't full screen?
Tried the WVGA Fix, however it's still not working. Loads and lets me login, however it's only using a fifth of the screen on the left.
It works!! Go to get.skyfire.com with your IE browser and you will get a htc cab.. download and install it.. run wvga fix and it works...!!
I downloaded it form the Netherlands.. They say there is already a UK datacenter...
Doesn't work. I changed the resolution but when I wanna start Skyfire it keeps "connecting" without starting. When I cancel the whole thing the whole phone gets stuck...
I got it to work, but frankly I'll stick with PIE and opera. Sure the flash support is nice and all but I didn't like the UI. It felt low-res. I'm gonna wait for the next opera/PIE release.

How then? What did I do wrong?
I read on some news site like msmobiles.com or so that the browser does NOT work in all countrys right now !
I live in germany and it DOES work here ! (With WVGA Fix 2 of course)
The low-res look is caused because Skyfire "emulates" VGA right now, so it only "dublicates" the pixel (from QVGA) instead of using the VGA display to get a smoother image.
I guess future version will improve this. This is the first version to support VGA and it is still BETA
My two cents : Use Skyfire when you HAVE to open a FLASH site which does not work with Opera/Flash Lite.
Just installed the latest Skyfire beta. Yep; worked for me with the WVGA fix program.
Yeah it's a double-pixel resolution but things look good if you zoom in. In any case, its rendering of CSS and everything is flawless; just like IE does it.
No link to download a cab file to PC? Gotta access the URL through the phone?
sorry for the obvious question...but where do I get the WVGA fix program?
thank you!
found it. Sorry, I didn't realise it was a seperate app (I assumed it was a fix specifically for skyfire)
WVGAFix 2 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442426
I manage to get skyfire working, Iplayer works but sound goes after a minute
then comes back on unexpectedly then goes again what could be the problem?
btw I am impressed pity about the sound
`
What can be so annoying about some member that post on this topic lol they say go to website download and there you go.
I manage to get skyfire working sounds ok too,
for xperia the file is for touch version and my version that works has a file size of 584,909 bytes. Install to device, The version I have running for that cab says is version : 0.85.0.7927 remember to run wvga fix first and set to vga mode, Then start Skyfire
Also if you have a problem with it saying authenticate and checking data go to your phone connection settings and untick your proxy for your internet connection (effectively bypassing it)
p.s dont worry t-mobile users since your using the same acess point your data cost wont be affected depending if your on web,n walk (uk)
enjoy next time any member posting please explain fully its anoying when they generalised to a point and expect everyone to get it straight away we all are not genius phewww.. i feel better now

here u go, enjoy
I use Fring, which has AIM/YM/MSN/VOIP, etc etc etc included in 1.
Also allows for file transfers, which I use quite a bit.
i use IM+ but there are other apps out there as well
I use palringo. I find that AIM's client is slow and it crashes after using it for a while.
never had any crashes with aim, it works well with me everyday, no custom rom just the latest SEUS update
i tried AIM's official program before... horribly laggy. But that was with R1A. Maybe the R2A firmware performs better with it?

loading screen for about 3 minutes. then a error pop up
saying "AIM server error: 12007" do you know waht that is?
thanks alot
not sure what that is dude, check ur connection settings and restart the app. good luck
I use beejive for aim ... the interface is nice and lte
I use palringo for the rest.

hmm i soft reset my phone and ran the application with wifi and it worked nicely!!
but now im trying to logg on using edge and its still connection...
if i may ask...wat data connection are u using??
and again, Thanks alot for sharing this!
my location is barbados, i am using digicel as my carrier with an unlimited high-speed data plan, it only takes a few seconds for me to connect, i guess its the speed u are connecting with, maybe your edge is slow, i had the same probs with our edge connection as well before i made the switch. when i connect via active sync, the speeds are practically the same as my unlimited data plan which is nearly 1mbps.
Mobile AIM is terrible. I tried to use it, but it is way to laggy. Use BeeJive, it is by far the best I've tried. Very slick, very clean, and very fast interface...plus its free! In terms of its fluid interface, you could be using the iPhone.
http://www.beejive.com/download/winmo/
hmm i see, guess my connection sucks.. thanks for the info.
imma try the beejive version and see...
i dont know why i am the only person who experienced no problems with the mobile aim, the only prob i have with mobile aim is that it wont allow you to change your display pic

iPlayer on HD2.

I can't getr iplayer to work. When i go to the bbc mobile version of iplayer via Opera, I get an error saying my phone is not compatible. Do i need to change anything in the registry or opera:config file to pretend its a nother device?

Change custom user-agent in opera:config to sgh-i900 & save. Exit Opera then go back to BBC iplayer & it should now work.
Actually found out HTC_Touch_HD_T8282 works better
TBOy, tried that but no luck. Do you have to clear out all the other gubbins in there first?
I changed HD2 to Hd and 8585 to 8282 but left the rest alone....
thanks
no clear EVERYTHING and put the above.
sorry to ask what is probably a very basic question but where is opera:config? I'm a bit new to all this so an idiots guide would be much appreciated
I second that, total noob to winmo, haven't a clue either how to do this
i think you type it into the adress bar, same with firefox core settings
The current Opera 9.7 version on the HD2 is not detected by the BBC iplayer website. Here is a modifcation to Opera preferences you can do to get it to work.
Launch Opera and type: opera:config in the url bar. No http:// prefix.
Find the User Prefs at the bottom of the list and then scroll down to Custom User-Agent.
Delete all text in the field and enter only HTC_Touch_HD_T8282 into the box and make sure you press Save (all the way down at the bottom of User Prefs).
Exit Opera and restart it.
Now go to http://bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer. Videos are opened in your Streaming App on your phone.
Many thanks, and cheers for being patient with the noobs.
+1 on the patience.
Incidentally, I found editing the line doesn't work; you have to do as stated ie delete ALL of it and then re-enter from scratch.
Thanks Again...
Hi Tboy, thank you for the reply- I think it's working, can't try yet as I don't have a wireless connection, which leads me to another issue...
The iPlayer claims that you can only stream over 3G on the Vodafone and 3 networks (UK), and that I should stream over wifi. I'm actually with Vodafone so does anyone know why I'm getting this message and can't stream over 3G? Is it anything to do with HSDPA being enabled?
Thanks in advance!
I was about to ask this exact same question. Got Iplayer to work great over wifi, so thanks again for the advice, but when trying over Vodafone 3g data connection it is saying I need to be on Vodafone 3G, kinda weird as I am. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as this would be a god send for long night shifts.

+1 It would be nice to get this working
Thanks very much too, I am a total noob to this, and iplayer is great.
Also does anyone know how you can get the rest of the copilot UK/Ireland and Euro maps from the DVD onto my HTC Leo? I have managed to get the UK and Ireland maps from the Disc but am struggling to get the euro ones off.
Thanks in advance

have you installed copilot central onto your PC ?
I'm on 3 UK and it works beautifully!
If you're having trouble with iPlayer you could try using the myplayer application. It works best with CorePlayer installed, but you can stream stuff using the Streaming Media Player and play iPlayer downloads using TCPMP.

Co Pilot Live 8
Hi There, Thanks for getting back to me.
I have put the Copilot Central 2.0 on the laptop and even tried loading each map (trance, BeNeLux etc.) individually via DVD on Laptop through usb to HD2. Not really sure what to try next.
