iPhone Style Web browser for WM

Since M$ is taking their sweet @$$ time releasing Deepfish I started looking for a Web Browser that acted like the iPhone. My search resulted with this video . Like what you see? then use this file to make it a reality.
Just a quick note, this program doesn't do an auto connect to your data connection if it's not currently active. You'll have to activate it manually form the Connections Tab under "Settings."

I think it's called Picsel Browser...

Bad news. Picsel browser has been licensed only for use with Samsung devices... :-(

Well don't tell my Wing that, because it thinks it's a Samsung!

And it's illegal to share that file since it's considered in "Warez" category.
(Like i care, i've every kind of "warez" installed, hehe)

Is it really? What's the difference between this file (which isn't available as a stand alone product for sale) and all the other things that gets posted on here? I'm not arguing with you, I just want to know for sure what constitutes as warez and what doesn't.

can't wait to try this. They should sell this it looks pretty nice. Sad they are only into licensing to specific companies.

I installed it and Im getting an error message that says Unable to connect to the server. Anybody else have any issues?

Works perfectly on my p4350 with TouchFlo 1.1 on it.

Official Wing testing will be conducted t-minus 45 minutes

Allright. Works perfect on my wing.
Running Touchflo 1.1.
AWEEEESOMMEEEEE

Well, correct me if i'm wrong but as much as i know, distribution of this program is not legal since it's a products specially coded for/by Samsung. Picsel Browser is not being distributed freely, is it? So, sharing this program is illegal which puts this program in to "warez" status. It's not that a software is warez only when you share a crack or serial along with the release.
As the definition says:
Warez is a derivative for the plural form of the word "software" meaning copyrighted material traded in violation of its copyright license. The term generally refers to releases by organized groups, as opposed to peer-to-peer file sharing between friends or large groups of people with similar interest using a Darknet. It normally does not refer to commercial for-profit piracy.

Therefore, sharing this software makes it "warez" since we're violating it's copyright rules.
This is my humble opinion about the matter.

this is a nice program but since development of this program has not been extended to cover windows mobile there are many problems with this browser. My biggest issue with this application when I initially tried it a while back was that it had trouble with forms and authenticating web pages, made it quite difficult to log into some sites. Used as a pdf reader, picture viewer, browsing blogs, and viewing various files it is quite a remarkable program considering how long ago it came out. Would definately sign a petition to get this up and running again...

Definitely a neat program! It works fast and convenient. It's true that a lot of html gets screwed up, forms and frames and scripts won't always run as they're supposed to but.. I don't think microsofts standard mobile solution in wm6 is much better on that front. This thing makes webbrowsing fun on mobile phones, I can't say that for Pocket IE.
I do however get this cube thing all the time while playing with sites and images.. strangest thing ever

Yeah, the problem there is that this web browser doesn't do an auto connect to your data service. You'll have to launch it manually (Start Menu-Settings-Connections Tab-Connections-Manage Connections-then highlight your data connection and select connect). Hope this helps

Memory Hog
Running it on an 8125 (Wizard) WM5. App over all works great but man is it a ram memory hog. I can start with 15 or 17 mb and after a few minutes of searching the web I am getting messages say to free up some memory so it can proceed. I check it in settings and I am down to 1 or 2%. WOW!! No other programs running in the task manager. Great program just wish it didn't suck the resources dry.....

I wish I had a memory card, Im totally out of memory.

I'm running it on My Herald. I get "our of memory" too. It would be great if there was a way to set the cache to the storage card,
btw. great way for panning and scanning pictures, just wish file browser had thumbnails.

Tyler, you don't have a mem card, these microSD cards is DIRT cheap!! If you can afford the phone and not the card, then maybe someone should donate you one since you're doing such good work for all of us with the ROMS...

Financial manager software reccomendations.

First off, I must say I love this site....
It took me some time (tons of coffee & reading) to learn about unlocking the powers of this phone. As it stands now, I'm only 1/2 retarded
The good news is I have just about every program that I think I need with the exception of a "good" financial manager. The problem is, most of the "good" ones are paid softwares. That fine, I don't mind paying, but I'd like to ask the pros/vets of xda before purchasing one. Some come with a 30 day trial, others do not. I didn't find any thread here on financial manager or financial software, but I did see the wiki but, it only included SBP's software & a link to http://www.pocketgear.com/en_US/html/all_titles_list.jsp?categoryId=cat4500055
but forgive me if I don't trust their "highest rated" system...
I came across http://doitech.com/ & it looks promising, but for some reason I can't get it to install.
I also tried splashmoney (was recommended in a pocket PCmag, that shall remain nameless....) & I found it a bit clunky & un-polished, not to mention, my banking institution wasn't in their list, even though its one of the larger banks.
So XDA peeps, what software do you recommend?
Thanks in advance..

I've owned SBP Finance for about 2 years... and haven't thought once about changing it. I like it alot.
It's fast, logical, powerful. I track all my accounts on it... keep my register... etc. The interface is easy to use.
I like the reports and the ability to export and import quicken files.
It takes care of all my needs.

Yeah, I just installed it now that I noticed they do have a trial period.
Once I purchase it, will I be able to maintain my crazzzy ROM flashing lifestyle of changing my rom 10 times a week??
Thanks in advance rickC

Make sure you use the autobackup feature if you become a ROM junky like me

I still haven't found one I like.... SBP is ok... but it doesn't reach out and scream to me... eerrr I mean it doesn't meet all my needs..

I personally like SPB Finance, but you can also try Innesoft Cash Organizer Premium at US$29.95. There is a free trial on their site:

Logging program for beer ???

I am a beer lover, and like to sample lots of different beers. I am looking for a program that will allow me to log the beers i have had, and take a few notes. Preferable id like the log to be able to list the beers.
Any ideas?

Sounds like the task for a spreadsheet so you could just use Excel Mobile

I'm not sure about a program, but you should definitely check out http://ratebeer.com/. If you sign up for a free account you can rate and review all of your beers, and it keeps all of your records and you can sort by rating or style. It's a great resource to find good beers and keep track of the one's you like or dislike. I actually haven't tried it from my mobile, but I'm sure the site would come up fine in Skyfire or Opera.
......and if you haven't tried Stone's Arrogant Bastard Ale or Ommegang's Ommegang Abbey Ale.....you owe yourself a taste.

I do a similar thing, makng a note of all of the books I read.
I use Phatnotes, which is a 3rd party alternative to the built-in Notes app and vastly superior

How about setting up a blogspot blog and hitting it when you try a new brew? I blog using ping.fm sms service. Works great!
You should try Shiner Beer's new 100 years of Beer Commemorater. Just had my first taste of it last night. Will have to try a few more tonight.......

Now this is my kinda thread.

Handy shopper is good for making lists of stuff.
look that up
Edit: Freeware

Me <3 beer

1800PocketPC.com -- What do you guys think ?

Hi fellas
I have a windows mobile site 1800PocketPC.com, its just over a year old. I was wondering if you guys have heard of it ?
We usually post about freewares and the latest hardware news about windows mobile. We dont have a forum for people to hang out coz we think as long as xda-devs and ppcgeeks are there why would anyone need a forum for windows mobile. I was hoping to get some constructive criticism about the site and ways we can improve the site.
You can also subscribe to our RSS ot Twitter

I know your site for some time and it´s very good, I like the format (exept for a narrower line of adds on the right)
Congrats!

I go all the time

I really like the site,
only thing is you could be be a little bit more "selective" or "picky"
At least what I think this could be "Pearls and beauty" of xda-developers.com for the average guy.
- I really like the category style!
- The Wallpaper stuff: Naaaahh I think you will catch some fishes with this but is it really needed? I think it makes the site look a bit cheap.
- RSS and twitter is great: every Headline was a hit so far (well some exeptions but I think beauty is in the eye of the beholder).
- Customisable rss and twitter by categorys and user would be the ultimate I think (but this would almost need the power of a socialnetwork)
- You are already on the top scores of google! (at least when I search for something)
- You can discover the real beauty of google translator when visiting your site Microfi Nitrogen -> Microfi Stickstoff (Germans get the joke)
but besides of the jokes it can be really usefull.
- I can´t test right now but have you checked "freedom from barriers"? The new "touchscreen generation" of phones might be great for handicapped persons. Would also be great to have a rating system for them as well.
So far really great
THX for this site

thanks for the kind words fellas.
@ moesfeld : Customisable rss and twitter by categorys is a great idea, I will look in to getting it done in the near future.
I am in the dark about "freedom from barriers" , do you have any links from where I can read more regarding this ?

Hi sajio,
You have really done a great job with the site, i actually am now quite addicted to your site to catch on the software which i miss on XDA. So keep up the good work and i hope with all the frequent updates and personal attention, you have made it full of valuable resources. What i think is keep your site fresh alway like you do now, and you would not need anything additional.
Regards
Sharif Ansari

Well it pretty much depends on what cms you use. Many have the "accessability for disabled" already inbuild.
I found the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
Also I found the Web Accessibility Toolbar that lets you check if you meet the guidelines.

I know your site a while ago, and I like very much.
Keep it up

I go there @ll the time nice job!

thanks guys

i love it and subscribe to rss for it. thanks for you hard work.

you are welcome

Local bible app?

Hey guys -
I was wondering is there a bible app that does not use the internet. It is a WIFI only Xoom and my church does not have an open WIFI.
All the ones I have tried from the market are not formatted for the tablet, and also use an internet connection.
Thanks.

I use Bible by Youversion.
While you're on WiFi, just download the version you use to your XOOM so you can use it anywhere.

You could also use www.acrobible.com

I use the NIV Bible from Tecarta. It works well on the tablet and has good navigation, but it crashes occasionally. The Bible from YouVersion is also good, as mentioned above, but the navigation is not as user friendly.

I use tecarta nasb. Works perfectly for me but it does cost money

I have NewVersion I just need to download it directly for offline access. I never knew that.
I cannot log in though, for some reason it does not allow me to input any information for log in. It's just blank. Can some one confirm they are able to log into the software?

Olivetree has a program called Biblereader that is the Cadillac of Bible programs on mobile platforms. The program itself is free, but the various versions cost money. The versions are portable to other mobile platforms, and there are tons of additional resources that are supported in program. The current android version is one major revision behind iOS, but they are working on releasing a new one soon.
All in all, it is one of the best study tools out there on any platform. Check it out.

Will do, I am running into issues with YouVersion.

I use the Barnes & Noble Nook app, and you can get any version of the bible, (N.I.V., King James. Etc...) for about a buck. Has chapters, works off-line, can highlight, annotate, bookmark, lookup words) even does the little page flip like on the iPad, love it.

A little off topic
I've been trying to get the people at globible.com to add the android tablet platform. Very cool Bible app and the more people requesting it the more likely they will push development.

I am not a huge Olive Tree fan but it if probably the best offline Bible. I read that they recently updated the reader so I should give it another try. I have in my Kindle app, too, but find the YouVersion app has the best search feature.

I love youVersions bible. Tons of translations. I bounce around KJV and NIV during study, sometimes KJV is a little over my head.
If you go into the list of translations there is a green button on the right to download to the device locally.
I attend a pretty old fashioned baptist church, and get some pretty interesting looks from the older folks when I break out the tab
Glad to see so many other Christians on here as well, it's exciting.
Edit:
I got a little excited and didn't read the whole thread. But I saw one or two people say something about youVersion and logging in.
Even though it doesn't show your email or passwords in the field, they are in fact being input. Just be careful and you should be able to login without issue. It took me 2 or 3 tries to get the UN and PW right.

Yeah after playing around I finally got un and pw to work correctly.. :-D

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I'm working on a Honeycomb optimized bible and note taking app and I could use testers and people to bounce ideas off of.
I love youversion on my phone, but I can't stand it on my tablet. So I figured this would be a cool way to learn a bit about Fragments and just expand my knowledge in general.
Thread is here. I'd love any feedback.

I checked it out!
Thanks!

"ESV Bible" (free) and "LiveBible" (also free) support offline viewing. While offline is the default for ESV, you will need to download the texts for LiveBible first.
