Hey all!
I love my Vario III,...just wondering if any of you were using Picsel browser?
It's awesome,...the only problem is that it doesn't interpret javascript
Anyone know of a similair browser that supports javascript?
Regards
Where did you obtain the picsel browser from? I always wanted to test the functionality but could never find a download. Looks like an OEM only product.
My Vario III arrives tomorrow
i absolutly love picsel, (other than the lack of java and sketchy flash support) its the easiest browser to use IMO... too bad they never released it comercially... they could make some serious money off it
To Steady Man
Give me your email I'll send you the cab file
piscal browser
hi my friend please email cab to
[email protected]
The version that i have installed is not working on my TyTN II
I'm getting the error:
Initialisation failur....in think this is German.
the version i have installed is simply entitled "Picsel Browser.cab" and was found on torrent tracker that canadians can't use.
it isn't very useful to me, but it is a novel idea of a browser.
quite a browser indeed, reminds me of the Safari browser on the iPhone. 320x240 doesn't quite cut it though for browsing, must look better on a VGA device.
Odd that you can't go full screen, or I missed a setting ?
deepfish from Microsoft is alos very nice (very similar to Picsel browser).

got a link ?
Thunderhawk is in the same vein as picsel browser, and works a little better. Basically, it renders the page on their servers, and then sends the page to your device. It is very fast and looks by far the most like pages rendered on a PC.
However, it is quite expensive, requiring a monthly fee to use the software. But there is a free trial to see if you like it.

would you mind sending it to me as well? The only one I found was ripped from the samsung blackjack which makes the screen for browsing the blackjack.

Does anybody got a deepfish cab? " At this time we are no longer accepting registrations for the current technology preview."
deepfish
that would be great, i've been wanting to try out deepfish for a while now. that zoom feature would come in real handy for qvga screens.

Along with the cab, you will need the (per person issued (iirc)) beta activation code to make it work. Given that it is using a server to house the data and format it for you ... you would need that code or the server would deny you access.

Here's the installation file for picsel browser. This one needs to be installed to the device main memory. I have the file that can be installed to the storage card, but for some reason the upload keeps failing.
First, I really have done extensive searching and can't seem to find the answer:
I have ATT Tilt with new ROM (1.62). Is there any Java update/midlet that will allow the Gmail app to be downloaded and work on my device? As it stands now, it won't even download from the Gmail site.
Thanks in advance.
Java
I would recomend esmertec java.
You can find it out there, it is not free ware, but since your phone probably came with it like my tilt from att, so licenseing shouldn't be an issue.
Threre are wonderful people out there that have taken apart roms and have all applications that came on the stock rom.
look here and good hunting.

I think I have read every thread in this forum having to do with trying to get the Gmail Java app to work. There are folks that say "Gmail works for me", but do not give any details as to their device, version, or other particulars. I have yet to run across a thread that succinctly explains how to get the Kaiser/Tilt to properly use the Gmail Java app. This is surprising to me because I am utterly impressed by many of the people on this forum and what they do. Much of it is beyond me, but I do enjoy the forum very much and have learned quite a bit from it.
Gmail being as popular as it is, I would have believed that one of our "geniuses" would have sorted it out by now.
Maybe soon???

Last time I checked, GMail is not working on WinMo phones at this time, Google even has it as a known issue and has not been able to fix it

Why don't you just check your GMAIL through the Mail application included in the ROM? Or am I missing something?

Please, which Java are you using? Do you have a link?
How about including some links to the app to make this post? Please update the first post with the download link and findings to make this post more usable to all.
Thanks!
I just use the regular mail application... but I assume he is talking about this GMail Application go to the link with your phone.
Im about to check it out and see if its any better....
Going to http://gmail.com/app installs fine if you have Esmertec Java 20070802 installed. If you don't have this, you can search for CloudyFa esmertec jbed to download the cab.
*Edit* spoke too soon. Gives me an error message about this program requiring a data connection when trying to refresh or download mail. I'll play with it some more...
me too
mine was doing that yesterday... uninstalled then went back to www.gmail.com/app (on my phone) reinstalled and now everything seems to be copacetic

IBM
hello guys, i looked into this thread earlier and tried to get it to work on my device. esmertic java didn't work for me, so i got the IBM Java Virtual Machine, i installed that first then went to http:\\gmail.com\app and downloaded the app and now it works perfectly and the app is really great. you can dowload the IBM jvm from here.
I think there's something wrong with the .jad file that we get from gmail.com/app. But you can get the actual jar file at http://www.gmail.com/app/v1.0.0/en/gmail-g.jar
Download it, transfer to sdcard and run it (install), make sure you have java installed... i'm using cloudyfa_esmertec_jbed... it work great...
i have v1.5 jar link, but eventually lost it... still searching through google.. or perhaps somebody could help...

gmail mobile
HELP.
Att Tilt. I am too newbie to put all the threads together. If someone could walk me thru all the steps I need to take to get the gmail mobile app to work and also after its downloaded is there a way to shortcut it to the home/today screen. I've got the HTC homescreen and the other one. I found this link on the gmail help site:

This may seem like a weird request but I am looking for a way to share folders on my Kaiser. The reason for this is that my wife has a Wizard and I have set up a WiFi network between the two to play games together. I download software and games at work and then need to tranfer the the files to the Wizard.
Now I know that you can transfer it via bluetooth but that sometimes take quite long and since we have a wifi network thought that why not look for a way of utilizing it for the file transferring as well.
I have tried to Google the subject extensively but only got ways of sharing folders between my pc and the ppc's, nothing on ppc to ppc.
Any input regarding this would be appreciated.
I'm also interested in such a feature (so I don't think is weird )! My search on the subject has concluded that even though M$ has SMB server in Windows CE (after all, SMB is a Microsoft protocol!), only the client side is included in WindowsMobile
The closest thing I have managed to achieve is to use an FTP server on the kaiser, and Novell's Netdrive on the PC (http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/qna/999.html)
hope it helps...
hypest
due to limitations in the windows mobile network stack, network shares are not possible from windows mobile.
you can access and create remote mapped drives with resco explorer, vm net browser, and z2 pocketlan... among others.
ftp may be the only option other than a raw activesync connection or bluetooth/irda
jd
Where there is a will their has to be a way.
Thanks for the responce guys, really do appreciate it.
Surely there must be a way to achieve something like this, if there is one thing I have learned from these forums it has to be that just about anything is possible. I'm sure there as to be something we can do. I will not stop digging till I find a way.

I'm not to sure what you mean by the ftp server on the Kaiser. Do I create a folder on the Kaiser that acts as a ftp folder and then connect to that or is it still a ftp folder on a server somewhere else and then need internet connection to connect to it. Please could you tell me more about this.
Thanks in advance.

Yeap, here it is:
You can run an FTP server on the kaiser (like the free Mocha FTP server) which will let incoming network users to access a directory you specify... I have specified the whole root dir "\". Then, you can use any ftp client software on a desktop PC (or another kaiser of course) to access the FTP server that is running on your kaiser. Of course, you have to know the IP address of the server. Once you have verified that the kaiser is accessible and the files downloadable, you can use the Novell's Netdrive (free also) to create a virtual disk on the client PC that will actually use FTP! That way, any program on the PC can access the kaiser's files, just as normal filesystem files. Apart from the delays and latencies, the scenario works great. As a matter of fact, I use it within my development cycle, where I have a post-build action that copies my program's compiled executable directly to the kaiser.
I hope these made it more clear

Thanks a lot for the info, I'm definitely gonna play around with this. Will post back here with my results when I'm done.
Thanks again!!!
I have checked out Mocha FTP server and downloaded it. Will test it tonight, it looks like it will do the trick though. If I run Mocha FTP server on both ppc I should be able to copy files from one to the other without a problem.

of course in that case, you will need an FTP client on each device... but I guess that is the easy part...
I know at least one FTP client that is a file manager at the same time (TotalCommander... the one I use )
Perhaps there is a similar way to NetDrive, to map an FTP site onto a local path on the ppc so to be "visible" from any application, but I haven't used/tried any.
hypest
Definitely Worth Trying ..

Thanks you, it works like a dream. Tested it last night and at first didn't use my head. Every time I went into the FTP folder there was nothing, little red cross over the FTP connection at the top. I then created another ftp and still all I got was the little red cross( My wife then interrupted me for dinner, thanks. Cleared my head a bit) After dinner when back to it and deleted the one ftp and it was then when I saw you have to click "Connect", while clicked it and there was the folder that I shared on my ppc. Copied a couple of files and it works 100%. I use Resco Explorer 2007, works like a dream and its got a couple of other extra uses.
I'm not to pressed to have the client on both because I normally have all the stuff on mine and then copy it to my wife's. Won't do any harm to have it on both though. This is probably a little longer route than normal file sharing but it works perfect. Still going to try what you suggested above, will keep you posted.
Thanks again hypest.

Glad you're quite satisfied with this "solution"
I really hope though that someday a SMB server will come forth (free hopefully)!
Great irony: SMB server software does exist for Symbian!!! Symbian users can export a local dir, while WindowsMobile users CANNOT!!! And this (kaiser) is supposed to be a 800euro (in Greece) BUSSINESS phone! Shame...
In South Africa the Kaiser is about R8000,00 if you were to buy it cash.
I've got it on a MTN contract costing me R419,00 per month for 2 years. For that I only get the phone and 120 anytime minutes. (BIG RIP-OFF)
Anyway I will keep playing with this and will let you know if I get a breakthrough.
Thanks again for your input.
hi all,
i was wondering...
i am looking for a proper Webserver and SSH server (daemon) for my Kaiser.
first.
i want to connect to my phone via SSH (like putty). Does any body know a good piece of software (or cab file) ??
second.
my friends wants connection to my phone webpage. Does any body know a good piece of software (or cab file) ??
many thanks in advance for all the replies !!
How about PocketPutty, http://www.pocketputty.net/. Very much like Putty.
Did you search, man? See my sig.
Not Looking For Client
thanks...but...
i am NOT looking for the client app. but for the server (or daemon) application

If you like PHP..
There's also another PPC webserver called PocketHPH which will let you run PHP scripts on the phone: http://mobileleap.net/hph
Pretty neet, free for personal use. I've messed with it before, but haven't reinstalled it since reflashing.. Looking at the site, they've apparently updated it with fopen() support, which kicks ass. Now I can write webapps for my phone which interact with my website (also PHP)
w00t!

Be nice if this was useful with the cheap data plans from ex-Cingular, but alas, natted.. I kept thinking "It'd be nice to be able to pop a quick connection to my phone and look at some status" but just won't work.
Tried Hamachi?
There's a PPC Hamachi client which is free.. Then you get VPN capabilities, no more NAT, poof.. Access to your mobile from a computer! The only downside is that Hamachi has to be installed on the computer you're accessing from..
HTH,

EDIT: http://www.hamachi.cc is the address.

I found this: OpenSSH ported to Windows CE!
http://www.codeplex.com/wiki/view.aspx?projectname=CESSH
It's alpha, at v0.0.1..
Download link is a weird AJAXy popupish thing, so I can't grab the URL without some legwork, and I'm feelin' kinda mellow (read: lazy) right now.. but no registration required, just click the "Download Now" button on the right..
About to d/l and try it out.. Hope it works!

Hmm, VPN. Yeah, that could work. I wouldn't use whatever solution the above is, most likely, but a general VPN could do the trick as long as it reconnects on its own and such. Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi everyone,
i went to a 3store today to get a TYTN 2 on 3 network UK. I thought we could use the free skype minutes they offer on other handsets, but they said no, use the wifi!!!
I was wondering if anyone knows a way to connect to their skype service. Thanks
PS: Please include links to any software or recent methods you might know.
Hi, I'd also like to know if this possible. Have a 3 PAYG sim and get 30 days free skype when I pay for the internet add-on but cannot work out how to use the 3G network for my calls. Cheers
I think fring will do what you want.
The website says you can make skype calls.
www.fring.com "fring is based on a unique thin-client technology that for the first time enables true VoIP over 3G, GPRS and WiFi networks"
I installed it on my stock rom AT&T Tilt (Kaiser) but have not tested.
I hope that helps.

any java skype client in the uk?

Thanks but i think for that you should have access to the internet. I can easily use the skype program instead. The problem is that skype is not the type of skype 3 network is using ( they use a java based program).
I read an article and someone had used the skype from a LG phones with 3 and Esmertec Jbed, but that was an Australian version. does anyone have a UK version?
This would rock if it is possible! Anyone know where to download a UK version?
I think we need to find someone with a non nokia phone from 3 UK, so he can give us the jar file. preferably LG
What do you think?
anyone from uk? or anyone knows a professional UK website? please
Anyone found this?
Can anyone with a TyTn II from the 3 network confirm if it comes with Planet 3 and Skype software installed?
I use Three...
Ah, you forgot to read the ultra-small fine print that states that the offer for *all* phones has expired and it's now only on *selected* handsets that seem to exclude the TyTN 2, also you can't get the sim-only and install the Three free Skype or Live Messenger on a non-Three phone+rom without some custom ROM hacking.
To make matters worse, if you get the £5 Unlimited Internet Access, the small print is that Three block Skype and Live Messenger so they can't be used (thought I think you can buy the £10 option that allows them?) - even if you want to pay for them outside the unlimited bundle. You can use IM+ BeejiveIM etc, to access Live Messenger though, and as far as I'm aware it seems to be included in the Unlimited access...
Oh, and if you want to access Planet3/My3 on your phone you can do so, but first you need to go into Advanced Config and change your "User Agent Custom Base" to "HTC_TyTN_II Mozilla/4.0" and then use the URL "http://mobile.three.co.uk/837_sc/index.do"
The Planet3/My3 will only work when accessing the page though the 3 connection and not WiFI or ActiveSync, but is acuttaly pritty nifty at checking you accound balance, tops ups, addons and such like.

Thanks a lot for the information you provided. Damn it, I made a big mistake as i could've got the Nokia N95 with Skype and Live Msg + unlimited internet for £5 cheaper every month...!
Hi guys,
This is a solution for the Skype on Three network issue. I had placed it on another forum (http://www.3g.co.uk/3GForum/showthread.php?p=385677) and one guy has reported it working, but apparently, it might not work with WM5, only with WM6. Please give it a whirl and let me know if it works for you.
Feedback is great for both me as well as others
**********************************************************
Annuntio vobis gaudium magnum
(I have great and joyous news)
I believe that I have succeeded in getting the native Iskoot WM6 client for Skype to connect to the Three/3 service. I am still testing it and would appreciate your feedback.
Steps
a) Download and install the Iskoot client for Windows Mobile 6 . Try the direct link here (http://www.iskoot.com/pc_download/Wi...1.54_WMpro.CAB)
b) After installation, start the application, but DO NOT sign in. Instead exit it. The reason for doing this is to create the default registry entries for Iskoot.
c) Now start your favourite registry editor (I personally use Resco Registry Editor, but you should be able to use any. Please do not ask me how to use the registry editor. This is not the appropraite forum.)
d) Head for the following location in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ISKOOT\SKYPE\DEVICE
e) Update all the following entries to the same value "http://mobile.three.co.uk/948" (do not include the "double quotes")
BackupHost
CallUrl
DefaultSkHost
Pushhost
f) Exit the registry editor of choice and start and log into Iskoot. This might take some time. It took me about five minutes.
It should now be configured to connect to the 3 Skype service. To cross-verify, check that the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ISKOOT\SKYPE\DEVICE\Cal lNumber has the value +447838333894 (the 3 Skype dial-out number). It should be automatically added by the software.
As I have mentioned earlier, I am still testing this. However, with this implementation, it should not use your included minutes, but the free Skype allocation. Please test the same and let us all know if that is the case or you have noticed that your inclusive minutes have been used up.
I do not know how to modify cabs. But if somebody can rebuild the original Iskoot cab with these settings built-in, that would be great.
I have noticed that the sound quality on this is considerably better as compared to the Skype Java client.

Thanks for the information. I tried it on my Hermes and it worked great.
Unfortunately, when I tried the same thing on my Kaiser, all I ever get is "Currently unable to connect".
I can't see why there would be any difference between the two phones, but the Hermes never fails and the Kaiser never succeeds!
Any suggestions?
Thankshttp://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Hi guys,
This is a solution for the Skype on Three network issue. I had placed it on another forum (http://www.3g.co.uk/3GForum/showthread.php?p=385677) and one guy has reported it working, but apparently, it might not work with WM5, only with WM6. Please give it a whirl and let me know if it works for you.
Feedback is great for both me as well as others

Annuntio vobis gaudium magnum
(I have great and joyous news)
I believe that I have succeeded in getting the native Iskoot WM6 client for Skype to connect to the Three/3 service. I am still testing it and would appreciate your feedback.
Steps
a) Download and install the Iskoot client for Windows Mobile 6 . Try the direct link here (http://www.iskoot.com/pc_download/Wi...1.54_WMpro.CAB)
b) After installation, start the application, but DO NOT sign in. Instead exit it. The reason for doing this is to create the default registry entries for Iskoot.
c) Now start your favourite registry editor (I personally use Resco Registry Editor, but you should be able to use any. Please do not ask me how to use the registry editor. This is not the appropraite forum.)
d) Head for the following location in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ISKOOT\SKYPE\DEVICE
e) Update all the following entries to the same value "http://mobile.three.co.uk/948" (do not include the "double quotes")
BackupHost
CallUrl
DefaultSkHost
Pushhost
f) Exit the registry editor of choice and start and log into Iskoot. This might take some time. It took me about five minutes.
It should now be configured to connect to the 3 Skype service. To cross-verify, check that the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ISKOOT\SKYPE\DEVICE\Cal lNumber has the value +447838333894 (the 3 Skype dial-out number). It should be automatically added by the software.

The iskoot link is http://www.iskoot.com/pc_download/WindowsMobile/iSkootForSkype1.1.54_WMpro.CAB
How do you get the address http://mobile.three.co.uk/948? I am looking for the same thing for three italy, so I cannot use that url. I have Kaiser and a three skypephone, wich include 10 hours per day of free skype call, so I will love to use the iskoot software on Kaiser and lunch outside the windows the Amoi!
Thanks

For Windows Mobile 6.1, MS .net Framework 3.5 is required, otherwise, "Currently unable to connect" error might appear
SkypeOut is officially supported (if not, very soon) by 3UK,
http://www.skype.com/intl/en-gb/allfeatures/3skypephone/overseascalling/
with some restrictions (read the small print!)
I failed to get Skypein to work, however.
And Skypeout is a bit unstable at the moment, might be 3UK is upgrading their servers...

I think what some people did is to download a java version of the iskoot (for other non-WM phone) and decompiled the java class/jad file and find the URL string. I guess if you can somehow intercept the outgoing network traffic from a 3 customized iskoot client running on another phone (perhaps on a Symbian phone trying to communicate to the server via wifi, which wouldn't connect successfully I believe, but still let you), parse the network packet to find out its intended destination will do the trick too.

Thanks for the tip, but the problem is that the only phone with skype is the amoi 8512 (http://www.3skypephone.com/english/index.html have you ever seen it?) I do not have x-series with skype, but a specific offer wich works only with this phone. This phone does not have wifi, so I cannot sniff packet through network, and the iskoot client is not java, but specifically made for it (when I run it, the Java log does not apper), so I do not know how I could extract the url. The only thing I have done is to get its user agent to replace it on the Tytn II, the Amoi 8512 user agent is " [FONT="]Amoi 8512/R22.0 NF-Browser/3.3[/FONT]" without double quote, of course.

I was in your situation until a week ago when I found the 3 UK setting. It is so frustrating that I knew all it requires is a correct URL address yet I didn't know what it is!
What you may want to try is to first identify which X-series phone that 3 Italy support apart from the skypephone. And then change your Tytn II 's broswer agent string to one of those phone that use a JAVA iskoot client instead of a native client like Symbian client. Then use your phone browser to 3 ITA portal and try to download the iskoot (Skype) software. 3 ITA server should now think that you have a compatible phone so it will present you with the Java client. Once you go the .jar file, you can proceed to extract the URL from there...
I think people used SEW910I to get the 3 Australia client.
Try this for the Browser agent string:
SonyEricssonW910i/R1CA Browser/NetFront/3.4 Profile/MIDP-2.1 Configuration/CLDC-1.1
I tried the above suggestion myself to try to get the URL from 3 UK's client, but I can't remember why I stopped, and then later I found that the URL is already know on some other forums on the Internet...
Good luck!

You are right, it is frustriating knowing I cannot use my Kaiser just because I do not know a simple url!!
I will have a look at this right now. Thanks for your help
