Thanks for the info, mate....
Have you tried?
Cheers.
Hmm.. no downloader for Tilt or any HTC models... maybe we'll have to try a different Windows Mobile phone? I will try 8525
EDIT: What the hell? Does this thing work off of Java? Like the midlet manager? Why isn't there just a cab or an exe? I'm confused...
How much different is it from the Beta?

Just connect from Kaiser PIE, and download it... it is java Midlet based browser... so no CAB nor EXE to install....
Cheers.
They don't have the kaiser listed yet but the one we want is the "advanced version", which is the one that all the other WM devices use. You don't want the "basic" one. It still prompts you for the stupid "trusted application" every time, I'll just have to hack the reg once again.
The best part: It displays the FULL web page in the browse. Not some hacked up, trimmed down page, but the full page. You then click on the area of the page you want to browse and it zooms in. You can then scroll around using your fingers (think touchFlo) or hit the magnifying glass to zoom out. Yes, it is kinda like the iphone, but it does work very nice.

Well im using it now as i type and so far so good. But main test is with the cookies handeling, becuz with the last beta i noticed that while browsing profiles in myspace, opera mini would log me off after awhile. Still testing, ill report after im finished
About time!
Very Nice... As soon as the cab version comes out it will be even better!
Opera 9!!
anyone know the release date?!
It prompts for net access even with the high memory version.
How do you uninstall the beta? My shortcut is still taking me to that.

Open up JBed, click menu, and hit "uninstall all".
This is my very first time using opera mini, and I must say I like it. Its working really well so far. One handed browsing is simple. Web pages look alot better, and work out better. One setting I changed was to make images medium quality instead of low. Otherwise, I like it. It is kinda like an Iphone.

opera mini 4 advanced .jar download save then install
http://mini.opera.com/global/opera-mini-4.0.9751-advanced-int.jar
opera mini 4 .jad download and install
http://mini.opera.com/global/opera-mini-4.0.9751-advanced-int.jad
the .jad you need to download with your mobile, the .jar is a pc download
Ok, one problem I see thus far. I can't save images. (I like to be able to download images)
Am I missing something?
everthing is perfect..except i cant watch youtube videos, download images, and wish if somehow they make the address entry more user friendly also the enter button. Another thing that is bothering me is the net access dialog, its is very annoying. And how can i make it into an program straight forward insted of going through java midlet.

was that in the terms and conditions? if so its just a warning that data charges can occur while using it if your network applies charges for data. if your on a data plan then dont worry it wont cost anything extra.
It's a java app, so, it won't be avail as a cab file. Opera Mobile is, Opera Mini is not. This is Opera Mini (which I love).
When i visit ebay.com.au, the pages never completely display.
I dont recall having this problem with the P3600i i had a couple months back.
Can you please check yours and report back here.
Thanks
Loads fine on my Tilt. Loaded via HSDPA in about 4-6 seconds.
Are you saving your temp Internet files to your storeage card?
thanks for the reply,
I will elaborate more and post a url for you to try.
ok, on my Kaiser, whe i go to ebay.com.au and search an item, you will see the title and image and sellers details.
Then when you scroll down you see in the Listing and Payemtn Details 'HIDE SHOW' and nothing below that. You can click either hide or show, but nothing changes for me.
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/MEDIUM-CAR-storm-hail-cover-AUTOTECHNICA-PICK-UP-ONLY_W0QQitemZ140198687959
or just search storm hail cover.
thanks, awaiting your feedback
I wasn't sure where your screen stopped, so I shot a video. Here is the file:
http://rapidshare.com/files/84510288/ebay.zip.html
thanks ,
downloading now.
will be back in a min
yep, you got it all, but are you using pocket IE, or an enhanced browser?
Yes, Pocket IE with the Pocket IE PLUS
not sure why mine stops just after the first pic and the auction end time, and before all the details. I havent modded my PIE at all.
Are you storing your IE files on your memory card?
no, i didnt think there was an option to store your cache on your flash card.
ps. i tried refreshing the page using both my 3G and home wifi connection. Same on both accounts.
strangley enough it corrected itslef, then did the same things.
This is odd.
Can you log into ebay using your Kaiser.
I can see the whole page if i am not logged in as an ebay member but once i log into ebay as a member, the bottom part of the ebay.com.au page doesnt display.
Why would this only happen when i am logged in as an Ebay member?
...it went all downhill. I got the text notification last night around 2am. Boy was I excited! I got up at around 9 and went instantly tapping on the url provided in the text msg... 30 seconds go by and my default browser, Opera 8.65 crank up to bring me to a shocker that I didn't at all expect: Below is the exact message that my eyes saw:
"Beta Request Completed
Thank you for verifying your beta registration. Your mobile phone is not currently supported by Skyfire. We will notify you when Skyfire is available for your mobile device."
wtf wtf WTF!!! My phone isn't compatible. What kinda crap is that. They are advertising all over their site with screenshots of the browser on a freakin' Kaiser itself. So, I don't get it that why is it recognizing my phone as NOT COMPATIBLE.
It felt like my Tilt was robbed of its dream date with Paris Hilton when she's coming right off a wet T-shirt contest and is on her way to Girls Gone Wild hottest chicks reunion shoot.... well, I got a little excited there so let me come back to reality! So, you get the point how I felt at that time.
Can someone tell me wtf am I doing wrong? I could only think of one thing that is that my Opera 8.65 is set to portray as a "handheld browser" and not a desktop one in its setting menu. Could that be the culprit.
To rub salt on my wounds, the freakin text message instantly went poof.. self-destructed upon tapping that link. I did went back to the browser and copied the url with my unique code at its end and ran it in PIE... same result.
HELP HELP HELP!!

It worked fine with my STOCK ROM ATT TILT.
Wow, that sucks...what PPC are you using? What ROM?

I never thought of that... what does a ROM have to do about it not recognizing my device??!!
NEways.. I'm using Dutty's Rom 6 Full version for my Tilt. Should I've upgraded to the 6.1s floating around first? I wanted to wait for the official one to come out first.
It might be using the ROMs device ID to determine compatibility...you might need a stock ROM. Has anyone used Skyfire on a cooked ROM?
Can someone upload this app, or can I download it somewhere?
It says "beta program is currently at full capacity"
I wonder if it isn't the Opera browser reporting your device as something other than what it is (maybe the "act like a desktop PC" option is on?). When you go to the web site your identity string which will include info about your browser, OS and sometimes device will be sent along too. Just a thought.
I am using Dutty V4, got the sms last night, went to the link in PIE, downloaded and installed like a champ. It is working pretty good, haven't had a chance to test it in 3G. But so far its pretty good.
waiting for cab any one has it?

This is not going to work for anybody but invited Beta testers. Since everything is server based with Skyfire it won't run unless you have an account set up with them. Only way you can get an account set up is if you received your invite code. It matches your phone number to it's servers, so if it doesn't reconize that you've been selected as one of the beta testers it simply won't work. There's really nothing anyone can do as it's all server based.
Anyways I would recommend to everyone not waste your time and install this, people from other sites are also saying the same thing as I am.
Its because your loading it in opera... try loading it in PIE. My banking site gives me the same error, but only on loading it in opera.

I've checked that already. Its set as a handheld device in Opera. I even went to the link via PIE and got the same message. Infact I even went there via Netfront 3.5 and no luck there as well....
What really sucks is that no one has posted this same problem besides me which is making my Tilt feel very lonely.. come one people.. stick ur neck outta yr shells..
..oh well!.. Its a big blessing though that Netfront 3.5 came out of nowhere and its basically been running literally FLAWLESS. I've been able to surf sites with such ease that its not even funny.
Damn haven't gotten mine yet.

humm well.. i cant solve your problem with the download thing.. but i uploaded one that i found on wizard forum =) take it and be happy ... blabla..
I'm registered and didn't receive any notice to download the beta....

It says registration failed...that sucks. I got excited there for a minute.
I signed up a couple of days ago. I put my device as HTC Kaiser not AT&T Tilt. I got a link to the download. When I click on it, it took me to www.skyfire.com/mobile/download/beta-at-capacity
netfront is with out a doubt better.

Does Netfront 3.5 support embedded flash like Skyfire? I know that 3.4 did not...
I signed up for the Skyfire beta on 1/28/08 and have not received any notification yet, so I e-mailed Skyfire and received the following response:
Thank you for your interest in Skyfire. On February 8th, we began to release the Skyfire beta 0.5. It’s a big milestone for us and one of many ahead as we march to 1.0. We are happy to report that the initial response to Skyfire beta 0.5 has been terrific.
The number of sign ups for the beta program continues to be off the charts – more than we can accommodate today. Rest assured, we will get to everyone signed up, but initially we have to pace ourselves and roll out the beta in a measured approach. We are inviting beta signs up to download on a first signed-up, first invited basis.
We will notify you by email and by SMS as soon as there is room for you in the beta program. Please be sure that when you signed up for the beta you entered the mobile phone number you want to download Skyfire on. We need that mobile phone number to notify when it’s your turn to download. If you used a different number, please sign up again with your mobile number so we can be sure to notify.
As reminder, first we are supporting Windows Mobile phones in the U.S. After Windows Mobile, we will support the Symbian platform in the U.S. – starting with Nokia N-Series and E-series phones. This could take a couple of months as we continue development and testing. We also hear all the Blackberry, Palm and Linux users who want Skyfire, but the wait will be longer. For our friends in Europe, Asia and around the world, we are working as hard as we can to roll out the service internationally.
To stay up to date about what’s happening here, you can read our blog. You can also refer to our FAQ. Please tell your friends about Skyfire.
Thanks,
The Skyfire Team

Initially accidently posted this in the Diamond forum...
Happy Holidays.
After reading a post here or in another forum I stumbled across a program called BARCORAMA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368798
Its a program that lets you scan UPC barcodes with your camera and then goes out to the internet to let you find the lowest price online for that item...already saved me quite a bit...and made shopping feel sortof fun for once...fealt like a spy..LOL
Works Awesome on my touch Pro...strangely seems to work better when I zoom to 2x and take the picture than when im in close

looks sweet will try it out in 30 mins @ lunch time!!!

I got the app working great on a touch pro.
Except I changed the default to pop open skyfire for the browser, and also piped it into Google shopping search engine, rather than just google. B/c in shopping it already shows the prices and places to buy.
Neat app! Thanks. Minor suggestion, offer the ability to put a path for the images and / or a way to name it when you shoot the UPC.

open the app, go into settings and hit the right arrow until you see the google address. then replace the word "search" with "products"
EDIT: works well. i zapped every item on my desk at work and it found them all.

LOL...no, sorry for the misunder standing. I was trying to add credability to the other guys post of pointing it to google shop instead of just google. I wanted to just put +1 as in I am also wanting this, but you have to have 10 characters to make a post.
mine is not working everything i scan says no barcode i have the pro and question what is it suppose 2 say for program 2 run
does anybody have an idea of why its not working
Zoom in to 2.0 on the camera and try again.
still not working do i have 2 upgrade the rom 2 use this program
is there a cab file for this? or how do install this to my phone? just use sync and drag and drop it into my program files??
yeah I found Standing further away from the barcode and doing a 2.0 Zoom really helped...I make the barcode fill the screen and make sure its sharply focused before taking the picture...
...In terms of how to install...i created a folder called Shopping in my Windows/Start Menu/Programs folder and dropped the EXE file in there...You will then see the folder in your Windows/Programs area....i put it in its own folder because it saves each barcode where the program is installed and i didnt want them in my programs menu.
Yeahh....I found a new way to kill time and kill my battery...lol
I've run out of things to scan around the house.
I now know the best prices of everything in my work place...lol
I even depressed a few when I showed them better prices......
Walmart thinks I'm a spy...lol....had to turn of the sounds while taking pictures of barcodes....Security was confused too.....
This really is an achievement! Thanks to the creator of Barcorama.....
To change to shopping in google
The above poster is right, just change search, in the http string to product and that's it. Then it shows you a listing of prices and locations, pretty slick.
As for the person not getting it to work, it won't work if you're megapixels is set to 3MP, I dropped mine down to 1MP and that did it for me.
James
More things to scan
Hey noellenchris, don't forget all your cd's and coffee table books, or IT books....
I even scanned a can of Progresso soup and it found it. Crazy.

Keep your phone upright when you take the picture. I found if I turned the phone sideways and took the picture, it would not find the barcode. Keep the phone straight up and down when you take the pic.
I changed my camera to take a picture on Touch instead of Touch and Press. Right after it autofocuses, it'll take the picture. Getting much better results this way since when I would use Touch and Press, when I would press to take the picture, my hand would move.
Hello, I'm wondering if there is a software that converts the TP (or other WM phone with touchscreen) into a signatura pad. So you could sign a document in your laptop on the screen of your phone.
Thx.
That would be cool, I would like to see something like this
I remember a topic like this maybe a year or two ago. I forgot what came of it, but my idea was to Remote Deskotop, Open in Paint and write away xD
try this
I dont write software apps, but i wanted to be able to do the same thing you said... i used the notepad to sign my name, then saved it as an image file and saved that to my desktop... now if i want to sign something on my computer, i just drag the signature file over and its signed....
not technical... but it works for me
yeah.. the basic problem is its gotta interface with programs.. its probably easy to make it a signature pad.. its kinda similar to using notepad draw mode.. issue is what program(s) are you interfacing this with? If you thing about it, there are tons of programs and none of them have a specified signature field.. take word or pdf files for example. There is no specific field for one to specify a signature. Its up to one to decide where to sign on.. with that, we are better off pasting a signed jpg on the portion required..
Pocket Tablet
I have not tried this one out myself, but it looks like a probable solution:

When noritsu comes to drop off parts they use a WM6 phone as a signiture pad for the dilivery

Thats because it 'interfaces' with their own pocket pc program.. get it? If you were to have your own company program written you could also integrate a sig pad to it.. for now its just kinda a very generic request..

Thank you khals. I installed it, but was not able to get work correctly. Each click the evaluation mode screen appeared, so I could not test it. The few times it worked it was not so good.
