Help with SKYFIRE - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

If you don't know what Skyfire is please chek this:
http://www.skyfire.com/product
I have this skyfire beta but i don't live in the US and i'm not registered in their database so i can't try this amazing wannabe browser.
So i ask you if anyone could hack this beta and make it free to use for everyone.
Thank you guys, you are the best!
download skyfire beta here

Nope. Skyfire is server-side based.
Also, there are a lot of developers on here. Ask them how they'd like it if a CLOSED beta of theirs got cracked in such a manner. Just wait your turn and it'll come to you when they have a more polished product.

the point of this forum is to develop independant software to improve the platform. not wreak the chances of a company trying to do the same. the software is free to use. i'm waiting as well and looking forward to getting my chance, do it the right way mate

How about you sign up and wait for it like everybody else. Relax, just use Opera Mini, it's better.

But it doesn't do YouTube
I don't live in the US but I did sign up for the beta
just entered a dummy mobile number and when the email was send they provided a download link which I was able to use..
Believe me it's worth the wait (this kicks opera mini in the nuts

Picsel Browser
You might want to look up Picsel browser, it's the best I've used so far.

picselbrowser iphone browser

this is great internet browser, there are many ppl looking for it, so grab it while you can, it is very smooth, it is the perfect browser if you like panning with yo finger, only there are some pages that do not load, and on ie do load, but yeah it is better than safari on that iphone
cheerz
What is the different compare to the one already in the Forum?
I cannot find the thread. You may need to search.
No! Deepfish is better... officially unreleased so far though.

that the download has been removed
have you ever thought WHY the download has been removed?
technically, picsel is only licensed for use on samsung windows mobile devices.
i dont care hehe
eh, thats you right. but what do samsung and the makers of picsel think? Samsung paid picsel for the right to use it in their phones, you know.
you are completely right, but they dont think of us willing to try this on other phones when they made this browser, not that they should
cheerz
Well, I don't think it's the best browser, but let's not fight over it
I've made a series of VERY serious comparisons and the alternates (Opera Mobile, Mino, NetFront, IEM + PIEPlus / MultiIE) have, in general, turned out to be better.

well, youre right, i think its pretty slow, and there are many pages that dont load, sometimes, it closes the program automatally, so basicly its crap, haha, but the experience you get of a page is the best ive tried, but i will try one of the ones you recommended

Yup, for the time being, DeepFish really sucks.
im surprsed that this file is still being hosted, ppl better get it while they can, a lot of ppl have been asking where they can find it
as far as browsers go, i love opera mini, it just works so good right now, the earlier editions pretty much suked, but this one (beta 2) is amazing
picsel needs major work to fit on the ppc, to many memory errors and unloading pages
deepfish is a waste of time imo, opera makes that beta version look like crap

I support that, Picsel Browser is a fancy UI with a mediocre browser engine. No more no less.

Well, however much Adobe's Flash plug-in, speed-wise, is a piece of crap, other solutions (for example, NetFront's own Flash engine) are even worse.
And let's not forget at least we can run SOME real Flash apps, unlike Symbian or iPhone users, who need to stick with the far worse and far less common Flash Lite.

Finally the browser that we've all been waiting for.

Well not out yet but beta version should be available soon. Opera Mobile 9.5 browser. Everything you need from a browser on your phone. However still missing flash capabilities. See the video below.

lol what i meant was it has the functionality of opera mini and more. But its a proper ppc app not a java application.
Just seen the opera press release http://www.opera.com/pressreleases/en/2008/02/05/
If you look under the section that says fully loaded:
Web 2.0-enabled, Widget-ready and Flash support turn Opera Mobile 9.5 into a fully loaded browser allowing users to access all their favorite Web sites such as Facebook, MySpace and more. With Opera Mobile 9.5, OEMs and operators will have the capability to include Flash Lite 3, empowering their smartphone users with access to the full Web including the ability to watch videos on YouTube effortlessly.​ So i was wrong first time it does have flash.

This made me crack up! Funniest post in a long time.
I'm glad the OP took it well.
I'd be very surprised if they'd release a beta to us regular customers before 2009/2010... I've completely lost my hope in Opera.
Over a year ago they told us Opera Mobile 9.0 was going to be released SOON
sounds good, does anyone know when it is supposed to be released?
Well, the situation with wm browsers is exactly like the pre-Firefox IE6 era. Please Opera, make a decent browser, release it NOW that its time has come and you will definetly be the Firefox of the WM platform!
Well, it looks it's intended for manufactures and carriers, and not for final user sales...
What has really surprised me is this:
Opera Mobile 9.5 will be available on all major platforms including Symbian, Windows Mobile and Linux, as both a standalone browser and as a SDK.

check out skyfire, (still in private beta tho) http://www.skyfire.com/
Wow... it's looks great. And I thought PIE 6.1 is gonna take over as the main browser.
i presume its not going to be free though... shame.

PIE (even 6.1) is rubbish. It doesnt render the page in desktop mode at all. The formatting is always wrong. The Zoom feature of 6.1 is next to useless.
at the moment the only browser that comes close to the desktop experience is Opera Mini. OM9.5 looks like the right way forward.

Skyfire hasn't started their public private beta testing yet. I signed up for it but to know that they'll be seeing what sites I surf to due to server side rendering, I think I'd take Opera 9.5 over it.
Like it's been said before in this post, Opera 9 was promised how long ago? Hopefully 9.5 comes out before WM6.1 is obsolete.

Huh!? Are you completely sure about that? I thought Opera Mobile 9.5 would be a FULL browser just like Nokias browser and Opera 8.65... Why server side rendering when Opera Mini 4 already does that!
msmobiles is reporting that it is local rendering.

Unlike Opera Mini and unlike Skyfire, Opera Moible 9.5 is a genuine stand-alone Internet browser, that doesn't require any proxy servers.

Yup, that's the desktop version (which is old since Opera 10 desktop beta is now out).
Interesting thing is Opera.com is down right now (including their FTP and IRC servers).
Yeah, I was trying to get to the site, but it was all down. I pinged them, and their response times for a single packet are very large compared to most sites. Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this.

Opera 9.7 Mobile is not out yet, wait until tomorrow, new features include:

Also, some of the major issues with the 9.51 Beta is fixed.
Installation on storage card is now possible, and the Beta happily coexists with preinstalled versions of Opera Mobile.
Better IME support.
Better performance and feedback when clicking links.
All Opera mobile 9.5 and up versions thread

Doubtful, keep in mind that Opera is located in Norway, so if anything they aren't going to be releasing a product at 6 or 7am there time, Opera typically releases products around 8 or 9am eastern time.

Safari opera

I am so used to iphone Safari browser that i simply hate both the internet explorer and the opera installed in my hd2.What other options to buy or download do i have?
What big thing is Opera Mobile lacking that you're used to in iPhone Safari?
I've used iPhone Safari, and I own an HD2 and use Opera Mobile, and as far as I can discern you're just fanboying.

Android Froyo will support Flash...and it will be 10.1 so, so far...best browsing exeprience imo.
I wonder why in the world flash 10.1 is not supported on wm???
Why Doesn't Adobe Support WM for Flash 10.1
The program has been tested (in Android form) and as Steve Jobs said, 10.1 really slows down the performance of the OS. The only alternative is still Skyfire or a miracle programmer somewhere out there.
