Webbrowser control can't load googleapp/map link - Windows Mobile Software Development

I developed an google app that basically pull out a map from googlemap using google map api. All works well when I access the app from PC's browser, and Winmo's IE & Opera. However, when I try to access it from the webbrowser control within my winmo app, it doesn't work.
Anybody knows if there's a limitation in the web browser control in .net (I'm using 3.5 with the July hotfix release) The app, given that's using google map api, is ajax based.
I tried other similiar google app (like this http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/draggable-markers/draggable-markers.html) it doesn't work as well.
any help is appreciated. Or do I've to create my own web browser control?

xGPS - Offline navigation using GoogleMaps for WM6.1

Is there an application like xGPS for WM6.1?
"xGPS is a free project aiming to bring a powerful and easy to use navigation software for the Apple iPhone© and iPod Touch©. It has powerful features like turn-by-turn directions, vocal instructions, offline maps support and even more. An utility called xGPS Manager is also offered to allow users to downlad maps on their computer and wirelessly upload them to their devices in a user-fashioned way. xGPS currently use Google Maps for the maps and the routing data. It means that it will work wherever there is Google Maps support."

Terracrosser uses offline google maps, but it has no navigation functionality. If you only want to see where you are and browse a map then its all you need.

(REQ) Download or read multimedia URL ?

I dream of an app that that could one of two - or both.
A) Be able to download a multimedia streams (like GetASFStream) where any multimedia URL will be downloaded. I could really use that to be able to download TV programs.
B) Be able to see/copy the URL of any multimedia streams (like URL SNOOPER 2), so I can bypass any FLASH VIEWER and just watch the stream in a player.
I am quite sure that none of this exists on WM (google), but any hints are welcome.
Recently I thought such an app was close... My dreams of something of a kind died with Fennec... I hoped that when Fennec was mature enough someone would release a modified version of the FlashGot plugin that passed urls to an external media player...
Don't know if such a thing being done by an Opera Mobile Widget is even feasable.
I dont know about Opera - think their widget thing has silently died ..
But I simply dont understand that this has no more attention on Windows Mobile with its known lack of Flash support - or streaming capability through the browsers...
I mean - could we rip the URL as on normal Windows OS, we would download tons of entertainment. Like my own national broadcast company - lots of programs that can be streamed, but either the connex is to slow or the browser wont show the file.
Just give me that URL so I can see the program when downloaded...
Bump...
I am up for a 50$ donation to make this work...
Might think more on essentials and poste here if any could take up the challenge..
BTW dont care if any makes a paid for app to be able to do this - just make it happen

Windows/NTLM Authentication

Hi,
I need to use Intranet sites through VPN that use Integrated Windows Security.
None of the browsers (Internet, Dolphin) support this feature on the Evo.
They are supposed to automatically present a login screen. I get an error instead.
Safari on the IPhone works OK.
Any idea when this capability will be added to Evo browsers?
2nd question: I couldn't find any players that can stream .asf (Windows Media) files. Are there any available yet?
Thanks,
Agapito.

Nice list, thanks for taking the time to put it together. Quite a few new ones for me in here.
I've used Astro, but I prefer ES File Explorer for browsing over the network. I could never get Astro to work over the network. ES can scan for Windows/SMB shares and add them. It's been a while, but at the time Astro couldn't scan, you had to add manually by IP, etc., and I could never get it to work. ES made it easy, so I switched. But for normal file management I use Root Explorer. It's simple, fast, and just works.
For network snooping check out Network Discovery.
For a notes app check out ColorNote.
Live dmesg in market. Pretty cool boot animation. Its uber geek
Love the Overclocked "nonsense" CM7
You definitely need to add Springpad! Amazing note taking and task tracking app.

Flash Player working via Dolphin Browser! (info provided)

Confirmed working on Shield TV 2.1 upgrade. Here is how to get the browser...
Edit: Mistake in thread title,you need the Kitkat Modded Flash Player plugin apk as well,sorry.
1. Copy the comname from playstore,which is... mobi.mgeek.TunnyBrowser
2. Go to Wandoujia (other places get apk files with parsing errrors) and search for any app and visit its page.
3. Replace that app's comname with the name in step 1 and visit the page.
4. Click or right click and "save as" on the apk word under the QR code,or if on a browser on Android,long press the word and save/download to get the apk file.
5. On your Shield TV,enable installing apps from unknown sources if not done already.
6. Transfer the file to your shield with any USB storage or Micro SD and install the apk from within ES File Explorer via longpress and hitting install.
7.Install it as you would any other directly sideloaded app when the prompt appears.
Notes: If you try to use the apk downloaders or a few other sites,the resulting apk will have a parsing error,Wandoujia is the one site where that does not occur with the apk.
If you have Opera browser sideloaded to Shield TV,it will be very easy to use for directly getting the apk from Wandoujia using the long press on the apk word under the QR code,as it has a far superior downloads engine where you can choose the name and location for the file being downloaded,just like a computer lets you do!
And don't worry,the installed app will not be in chinese for those of you with English and other languages.
First,the instructions... Go into the browser's settings and simply enable the "flash mode" feature and it works PERFECTLY.
If you download swf files,you can play them locally on Dolphin Browser using ES File Explorer and long pressing the swf file then "open as" other and selecting Dolphin Browser to play it.
Also,a Logitech K400r keyboard works flawlessly on Shield TV.
Enjoy!
Edit 2: A link to the Kitkat Flash Player mod.

NEW! Edit: I got the latest update 11.5.4 as a download from apk20 and it actually installs!!!
It fixes Dolphin Jetpack rendering glitches for me and also improves flash player performance along with fixing parts of it.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A few details.
It only works when Jetpack is enabled,and also,the flash game mode fixes interactions with dragging stuff and fixes the doubled clicks bug,but it appears to be causing visual glitches on the browser itself.
I think Dolphin Browser needs a special optimized version for Shield TV.
It works but it's far from perfect, tried watching some video and crunchyroll and it was pretty bad, screen no video and almost impossible to navigate.
Yeah,I noticed some touch point issues when in a different zoom size,clicking on a link doesn't work right in other zoom sizes because it thinks I am clicking at a different spot than I am actually clicking at.
Jetpack is the problem,it is really buggy unfortunately.
If only flash could work without Jetpack enabled and on all other capable browsers like FireFox,lousy changes from Kitkat and Lollipop.
Flashplayer on android
Have you tried puffin browser from the playstore for flash support?
That one has crappy frame drops and I feel a bit skeptic about using it from the cloud based flash service.
Besides,the controls on a keyboard like K400r are idiotically broken in Puffin if you have tried playing Happy Wheels.
try opera for tablets, make sure user agent is set to desktop
didn't work for me I don''t know why ??
Updated with a link to a fixed build on apk20 installing successfully!
Enjoy!
Dolphin Video works great for playing swf files offline without tricks unlike their browser!
Besides needing a keyboard/mouse,the only issue I see is only that the UI favors Portrait mode annoyingly (mouse glitches around,but still usable and videos go to landscape),but using a forced screen orientation app can alleviate that annoyance,apart from bad thumbnail sizes of online videos.
At least it doesn't need a special copy from a certain site,simply using one of those apk downloaders is all you need to do.
All I did was type in "Dolphin Video" in one's search box and got it that way.
One thing to note,apk-dl is broken and endlessly redirects to itself instead of actually downloading it,so a place like apkpure is great for getting it easily.
