Skyfire For Htc Touch Hd

Hello,
I just wanted to know if skyfire will work on the htc touch hd. Has anyone managed to get it working on their Touch HD. I installed it but get the usual windows error message, i.e it doesn't work on mine. Does it work on yours?
If you do manage to get it working, can you please check if bbc iplayer works on it fully with sound. i read somewhere on this forum that they got it working on their Mobile device but bbc iplayers sound did not work. this will be the best browser to go on bbc iplayer and watch other videos.
Please someone reply.
p.s I got so happy that this will work on the HD, but it doesn't. apparently there isn't a skin that supports the HD's screen. here's the website: http://get.skyfire.com/

Windows Mobile phones: Skyfire runs on Microsoft Windows 5, 6, and 6.1. We support VGA and QVGA screen resolutions. Skyfire runs on many popular Windows Mobile phones including the HTC Tilt, HTC Touch Diamond, HTC Fuze, Motorola Q and Q9, Palm Pro, Palm 800W and Samsung Blackjack II. To check if your phone is compatible with our OS and resolution requirements, please refer to the Microsoft website.
Skyfire will not run on Windows Mobile PDAs. Skyfire runs on phones only.
Skyfire will not run on WVGA Windows Mobile phones.
Skyfire will run on Wi-Fi, however a data plan is recommended.
Cut & Paste from their site

We must wait a fixed version ;-)

huh, when did they add vga compatibility?? I checked over a month ago and it ran like crap on my Diamond... now I sold the Diamond and got the HD, effectively pushing my self back in the waiting line

Use W VGA Fix 2
->> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442426

i've tried too but resolution of the the hd is bigger ...skyf for smaller rezs...

Current releases are not working with the HD... we have to wait, just that!
p.s: anyway this browser looks promising so much!

Many thanks! Works with W VGA FIX 2...
Although to switch back to regular resolution I found you have to use task manager to close the app and restart.

Doesn't work for me.
How did you get SkyFire to work on HD. Ive installed fix2 and the certificate that came with it. When I try to run SkyFire i just get..
'Skyfire only supports screen size widths/heights of 240,320,480 or 640.
Desperate to get iplayer, if not this solution then the other 'new' thread looks hopeful
Thanks you guys, I'm out of my depth but following your lead!

ashleyp,
install wvga fix 2 cab. That puts a new program in your program list. Find the program called VModeSwitch, run it and change screen res to 640x480. Then run skyfire.

Works many thanks
Now need to try iplayer when at home on my wifi network.

Confirmed that this works 100% perfectly using VModeSwitch.
However, VModeSwitch rotates the screen, you may not want this. I use AEButtonPlus and assigned a long press key to rotate the screen clockwise, in which case VModeSwitch becomes responsive again and I do not have to kill it in the task manager.
The problem is VModeSwitch does nothing until you switch out of it. If you don't want to use AEButton, simply press the home hardkey on your HD after switching resolution, because then the screen goes back to Manila which instantly forces the screen back into portrait mode (but still VGA res). After this, VModeSwitch will work again when you get it from the tasks window and your screen is portrait VGA after which skyfire works 100% perfect.

VGA resolution?
Does the latest Skyfire (with VGA support) actually run at full 640x480 resolution or is it just stretch the pixels for the HD, as though the HD were running at 320x240?

opera
tried it, i think i will just stick with Opera until they fix the vga problem.

Very wise.
I cant understand why people go to such trouble to get a browser to work.

some of us need to monitor pages which display info using fash, I think Skyfire is the only option, right?

Never heard of Flash Lite? Works with Opera and IMO Opera is the best browsing solution anyway. On the other hand Netfront 3.5 Concept works like a charm on the HD for pages that don't display correctly with Opera. Give it a shot, it's free

Okay, I've installed the adobe version for my HD... tell me why we need this horrible looking SkyFire then? I've uninstalled it and the other bits and peices I needed to make it work.

What have you installed?
Adobe version of what?
Can you please explain?
Thanks

Sorry, I went looking for Flash Lite and found a thread with 2 versions, Flash Lite (didn't work for me) and an adobe version of flash lite (I think) which worked. I can now see the flash content on my fantasy football page
I thought SkyFire was a horrible looking browser and just wondered why everyone wants it if Opera can show flash content?

Movie Collection Library

Hello Everyone!!! Was reading the forum for long time, the best forum out there, so well done all.
This is my first thread
I would like to know if there is an app where I can put my movies (DVD) library on my phone (the Great HTC TOUCH HD). Something like Delicious Library or mediaman (with a borrowed option)
That will be nice with a touch screen interface and download the movies data from imdb or amazon.
if not is there anyone interested in writing one???

The only movie database i know for PPC is "Leonard Maltin Movie Guide" where you can mark movies as borrowed. But as far as I know you can`t update the database as it is built in.
I am looking for a database myself a very long time.
In the meantime I have entered my DVD´s in List Pro (Hard work for about 1500 DVD`s)

dvdprofiler have all the functions you are looking for
http://www.invelos.com/dvdpro/Info.aspx
http://www.invelos.com/dvdpromobile/Info.aspx

my preferred is:
http://www.invelos.com/

Thanks guys, I will try the Leonard Maltin Movie Guide and the DVDProfiler and let you know ....

Leonard Maltin Movie Guide doesn't work at all on the HTC Touch HD, whereas the DVDProfiler Works fine, but it doesn't display properly, the bottom of the screen is empty...
Anyone have an alternative??? or a solution to fix this issue??

Mmm, Movieguide works fine with WVGA, on my HD at least. Version 85 of 2008. Full screen! So?

Yeah. It would be nice to run flash files outside a browser. for example as a screensaver.

I found this aq couple of days ago.

No WVGA but it is the only app I could find to play flash, maybe it will in the future.
it does work on my HD and I have WM 6.1 professional.

Flash Lite 2.1 is a standalone flash player that plays your flash files.
It even plays many games.

I don't know, but when I went to Youtube.com it actually played the videos, even if it is flash... But Opera should not support flash
How can that be?

Can i get the link to the Prince of Persia HD manufacturer homepage? If you mean Gameloft Prince of Persia HD, its only for HD resolution, hence the HD at the end of the name, thus not for HD MINI as it obviously doesnt have HD resolution.
Supported HTC Phones: 8900/8925 / Dash / Dash 3G / Leo / HD 2 / P3450 / P3600 / P3650 / P4500 / P4550 / P5500 / P6500 / Touch 2 / Mega / Touch Diamond2 / Pure / Touch HD / Touch Pro2 / Tilt 2

I don't remenber where i've got it, probably in a french forum, but you can find it on the market place.
For the HD resolution I don't know but it work fine on my mini.

Theres no Prince of Persia nor Prince of Persia HD on my HD MINI Market Place ... there is one on my HD2 Windows Marketplace though and that one does not work on HD Mini

I've had the same problem with Tetris, even Need for Speed ​​and The Sims 3 did not want to work (gets stuck during loading ...) then I changed ROM and install the game again and everything works great

Probably a problem with the amount of free memory...
