does anyone know of a patch for the tilt that can make your web browser a full blob browser with java support and flash support and supposedly from what I heard that you can put full desktop browser like mozilla onto the device let me know

what's a blob?
No there is no "patch" that does that. The only application that can be considered a "desktop browser" on your PDA is Skyfire. google it.
and who doesn't live in US, how can we try it ?
Thanks in advance.
Skyfire, Skyfire....
The closest commercially available thing right now is Opera Mobile (not mini)8.65 with the plugins.
I second the Opera Mobile with plugins answer. Opera is as close to desktop as you are goign to get on a WM device today. I'll believe Skyfire is when it actually comes out to the public.
There is something about me that doesn't like using Internet Explorer. On my phone (Sony Ericsson K850i) I use the Opera Mini 4 Beta browser and love the way that it renders sites and you can zoom in and out etc...
I installed Opera Mobile on my HTC hoping that it would be exactly the same as mini but I was very disappointed Not only does it not have the text for the soft keys but it doesn't accept touch screen inputs for pressing links and text boxes. Also you don't have the zoom in/out function so you have to see a fully rendered screen or and "everything on one column" rendering that cripples the content.
Is there a decent browser for Windows Mobile? What I am looking for is something that works exactly like Opera Mini but with more compatibility with flash etc...
Any ideas?
At the least I would like to be able to install Opera mini but it comes as a .jad file (Java Midlet?). Is there any way of installing these as my Kaiser doesn't know what to do with the file atm.
Thanks for any help
Oliver
There must be someone out there who uses a browser that they're happy with?
Is there a version of Opera that works with the touch screen?
Thanks
You don't have Java on your phone? Opera mini is free and it is a Java Midlet so you could try and see how you like it without spending any money. There is another free browser that I have called Minimo.

It isint the perfect browser either but it does alot of what Opera does and lets you set it with preferences too. Give it a shot and see what you think. Don't like it just remove. I will look on my phone to see if I can extract the Java .exe for you.
I use netfront 3.3 its got better functions than PIE and its back and forward functions using your D-pad is very usefull. as for opera if you want it to scroll like opera mini just enable touch and grab on opera v8.65. it will select links as opera mini does it just wont zoom in like opera mini
Ceck out the articles at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Web Browsing, browsers
picsel browseris my fav. look around enough and you'll find it
Thanks for the replies!
I'll definitely have a look round for the browsers you mentioned.
I would much appreciate it if you could provide a Java app to enable Java on my phone too
BTW, I'm using Schap's latest ROM if that helps.
Im a bit confused here about the op. Am I the only person that has a copy of Opera Mobile that does everything that the op said it doesn,t do? Which version of Opera mobile did you try? I use O.M on my kaiser and everything you said it doesnt do, mine does.. Ive got touchscreen interactivity aswell as touch scrolling, i can zoom in and out, 3 can resize the screen format to desk top,just fit and one column. Im runing Opera mobile 8.65 for Windows Mobile Pocket PC. By anychance did you accidentily download the smartphone version?
As above - op must have downloaded opera instead of opera-mini...
I'm posting using o-m and must say it's one of the best if not best browser for the wm platform
WOW!
Just installed Picsel and I love it.
The GUI is a bit dodgy but that's cos it's designed for the clie but I love everything else.
Thanks
(Bit of an effort to find a download though)
Ah, I downloaded the Smartphone version. That's prob why I don't have the touch screen thingy.
BTW Subliminal, there is a difference between Opera Mini and Opera Mobile. Opera Mini is what I have on my Sony Ericsson k850i and I would have thought that Opera Mobile worked similarly. It does all the same things but not as smoothly as Opera Mini.
Opera Mini is for Java based phone apps. Opera Mobile is for WM platform.
Opera Mobile has more functions (I think?)
but one main difference is that Opera Mini is free whereas opera mobile isn't.
A direct shortcut can be created to launch opera mini without the need to load the java midlet first. A quick hex edit can skip the connection permissions and another quick tinker can allow direct links from emails to open in opera mini. Sounds more work than it is.
Ive just been checking out the Netfront v3.4 technical preview
https://www.access.co.jp/english/nfppc/agree_34.html
its alot better than v3.3 and has some very nice features. its got a similar zoom feature to opera mini4 its a scroll and zoom. plus the visual bookmark is nice also. I cant wait for it to go to retail I will be getting it. opera9 will be ready soon also but ive not seen a preview of it yet. from what ive read though its also going to be alot better than v8.65 and incorperate feature of mini opera4 like the page zooming
I've just downloaded opera mini 4 and have installed it onto my phone.
I have one querey.......
when I was instaling it and when I first used it, it say
this program is connecting to .......port 1080...... requires airtime..... you maybe chaged.....
does this mean my phone isn't using the wifi connection when im running opera mini 4?

It must be something to do with your settings, Ive just tried it with usb and wifi and both connect fine. Infact it connects quicker with usb than it did with v3.3.

Mmmm... don't reach the solution ;-( , even after modifying the browser settings. Always the same message...
"Cannot load page. Check that you are properly connected to the network. Type : TCP connect"
dolbe, can you give me your settings for this great browser ?
MS DeepFish is the best browser I've seen yet. It's in Beta for now though and has limitations. It's similar to Iphone's Safari - which is great.
Opera Mobile 9 will support zooming, just like Opera Mini. I asked Opera for a release date, but they won't say anything. It's supposed to be released "soon".
Hi, I saw the other day on the internet, the WM6.1 have a very cool internet explorer, that you can zoom out and things like that.
Is it posible to install a internet explorer like that on a ATT TILT wm6 ???
I can do that with Opera Mini it is free just got to www.opera.com on your phone and it will download it. It is a java app so you will have to run java everytime you want to get online but it loads quickly on my tilt so it doesn't bother me. Loads a lot better than IE

thanks it works
My opinion
Personally I never use Internet Explorer unless checking MLB/NFL scores quick.
I use Opera Mini ( http://www.operamini.com/beta/ ) <---- Download here
This is one of the best free browsers out there...again in my opinion. I also like Opera 9.5 (here is the link to the leaked beta version that I use and I love it!!) ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378876&page=10 )
Hope these help. Have a great day

I have been using Opera mini for a while now and have loved using it. I was just wondering if there is a way of stopping that annoying message
"Untrusted application Opera Mini wants to send or receive information from...."
and just make it say yes automatically all the time as i'm on an unlimited GPRS package and find it annoying
thank you for your time and help
I searched and found the answer in no time. Did you have a problem finding it there?
i have a question on how to find the java/flash plugin for opera mini so i can watch youtube vids?
any help would be greatly apperciated
what version are you using if its 4 then you cant if 4.1 then you can you go to java then edit the security settings of the application so it always allows
and you cant watch youtube with opera mini but later this year it might be possible with opera mobile
and next time try to visit the opera site help page before asking here

Hi everyone! I was wondering something the last few days, I flashed the 2.1 original firmware, (I believe is the most stable one) but when I go to "twitter.com" or"mobile.twitter.com" in the browser it opens the wap page, not the one that was made for touch cellphones, the other one (I hate the wap page) and I can't get into the touch page! But in 2.3 I can!Can someone tells me what I'm doing wrong? Does someone has the answer? Thanks
PS: I already have the Twitter app, but I want to now why that happens, and fix it!
Go to browser settings, select user agent and then Android.

(I believe is the most stable one) U got to be kidding me. First of all it`s ugly and second it supports very little number of apps.
AND IT IS SO DEM SLOW...
Use Dolphin Browser HD/Mini.
Once downloaded just select your user agent.
