I read a user on here comment some time ago "I will never use a server based browser" in reference to Skyfire. And now I see why. They can decide to drop support whenever they want, and you are completely screwed, and don't even know what is going on.

Interesting, Skyfire became the No. 3 best selling paid app within 5 hours on the Apple app store, before it had to be pulled due to the Skyfire servers being overloaded.

http://www.pcworld.com/article/209765/apple_iphone_users_overwhelm_flashfriendly_app_skyfire.html

Sad to see so many people flocking to what seems to me a developer that does not support it product. I understand WM (at least versions before WP7) is a sinking ship, and a similar thing will likely never happen to the iPhoney. But it seems pretty crappy for a developer to suddenly drop its software apparently without warning or any kind of announcement/communication.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SpinalRemains:
Oh it's completely personal. They rendered 3 quicklinks on my Home Page useless. It doesn't get any more personal. Messing with someone's mobile device is like messing with their woman, or their car. It's just wrong. Send me a dam Email or somethin. Is that too hard?

Wow that's terrible. I've been using OperaMini for some time now since it came out of beta. But I guess some people want flash to work in their browser.

The Uzard browser might be a good replacement:

(i also attached a cab)

i think it might have to be installed on the storage card to work.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
Skyfire hasn't even bothered to post an announcement on their website. In fact, WM is still listed on their site as being supported, and Skyfire is still on the MS Marketplace. This is terrible communication. I hope they screw iPhone users just like WM users. Unlikely, but if iPhone users are dumb enough to buy into this, then they deserve what's coming to them.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] StrangeShadow:
Does this allow the flash player to work, like with skyfire?

I was wondering what happened, since I am getting the servers filled message for the past few days.

So many websites now days require the flash players to work properly, Opera just isn't cutting it anymore.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
I tried uZard, and yes, it transcodes Flash content same way that Skyfire did. but it was painfully slow. Even when rendering non-Flash webpages.

SKyfire News Update

For anyone interested, Skyfire announced that they were ending support for WM and Symbian devices at the end of this year. There is talk of offering it again, but for a price this time. It would be a welcome cost, for me, as their 1.x version is more feature rich than the new 2.x version available currently for iPhone users and soon for Blackberry 6, Meego, and WP7. Legacy support will end in about six weeks. Uzard is pretty much the only other option, albeit a crappy one so far. It's still in beta, but hopefully the final product is better than the current version.

R.I.P. Skyfire

You will be missed.

It works really well, doesn't seam to keep cookies, etc, so no trouble having to delete it after use too. Doesn't seam to offer a copy paste feature or selection tool though, if you want to copy some text from a web page.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] porkenhimer:
I assume that we will be left without a flash browser in the next few months. Skyfire left us hangin on for a year without an update before finally tellin WM users they were done with us and if u research u'll find that UZARD has not given us an update in almost a year. The UZARD WEB S & UZARD WEB H they have been showin on their site for 8 month that were gonna be the socalled next updates for WM were never released. My guess is they are takin a page from Skyfires book and was waitin on WP7. I personally do not wanna have to install XDANDROID just to run android apps on WM. I think our best bet is to find someone to port the android version of SKYFIRE if we want to continue using a flash equiped browser on WM or get someone to port FLASH10.1 from android. Maybe someone should start a bounty thread for these android ports.

I allways installed it but never used it. Opera mini is way better
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cajunflavoredbob:
Skyfire is working for me currently. I'm enjoying it while it's available. I would certainly pay for it if they decided to charge for continuing support.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jsaid:
can You still use Skyfire ? in my phone it can't connect to the derver.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cajunflavoredbob:
Nope. It stopped working earlier this week for me. They were shutting it off region by region. Everything is expected to go dark for legacy support by 31 December this year.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] SpinalRemains:
Hi guys/gals

Hope everyone had a nice X Mas.

I'm still looking for a replacement browser or something so that I can run Flash on my TP2 like I did with Skyfire. Anyone have any solutions besides that Uzard one? That one was just too clunky and slow. I really do not want to upgrade my device because I have come to love the archaic TP2, but not having flash is really a downer.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] adanedhel728:
I didn't notice that they pulled support until some time later. Honestly, I got very frustrated with how slow the "fastest" browser was. It used to be good, but after awhile it just became frustrating. Once I discovered Opera Mobile 10, I almost never used it anymore. (Call me crazy, but Opera Mobile 10 is my favorite mobile browser, I just love the interface and it may not be super-fast but it's not too bad in that respect.) (I never really cared for Opera Mini on anything other than dumbphones-- having to deal with java apps, I think, is kind of a pain. But, that's just a matter of personal taste.)

I briefly used a Nexus S, and I never even bothered to install the Android version of Skyfire on it. It's just my personal opinion that there are better browsers out there. I guess I don't use flash that often, and, honestly, Skyfire didn't do a great job of it anyway. Sometimes it was useful, but usually it was clumsy and difficult.

It had a time that it was a great browser, but it seemed like they reached a point where they stopped listening to what their users wanted. Like the whole giant text thing that never worked consistently. A lot of people on their forum said that they hated it, but they never gave us the option to disable at (at least while I was using it).

That being said... Yeah, they're jackasses for just leaving us high and dry when we were the ones that got them started. I guess they think they're appealing to a wider audience, but when the non-technical users realize that server-side browsing has problems, they'll stop using it, and when those of us that are using WinMo 6.x are finally forced to use Android or WP7... well, I don't know about anybody else, but I sure won't be using their crappy browser, knowing that they're going to turn tail and run at the first sign that they might make a buck elsewhere.

I'm not an enormously technical person, but this is just the way it seems to be to me. In a way it kind of reminds me of how RIM bought Torch and we lost Iris. Not that I would expect RIM to continue to develop a browser for a competitor, but as a user it just sucked when that happened because we lost a pretty good browser. But in that case, at least, we can still download the old cab files and use it, we just won't get updates.

Im a CM6 user I use a HAVS kernel now I read in the Cyanogen thread not to use ABD reboot bcuz it will mess up the kernel function. Now for months Ive been powering off my phone turning on, recovery choose reboot. Its really starting to get at me so what I was wondering is say an Apk like QuickBoot or any other that gives you the option to reboot or recovery, ect. Does that go thru ADB reboot can I safely reboot like that without effecting kernel? Also PLZ someone with the right knowledge answer this. Thanks in advance
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
What you are asking is not making sense to me? I'm guessing you're asking about the app Quickboot and whether it will mess up your phone. If you hold the power button down on CM6 and click on power off you can choose the option for recovery thus eliminating the need to install Quickboot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dozenboy0012:
See what Im saying is in the CM6 kernel thread it say not to use use ADB Reboot with a HAVS kernel, what Im wondering is can I use an app like quick boot to reboot bcuz the whole power off thing is getting old to me does an App like quick boot go thru ADB to reboot?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkdude36:
cm6 has a native 'quickboot'-like function. hold down power like you are turning off your phone, but instead of hitting power off, hit reboot. you can select normal, recovery, or bootloader from here. if it were huring anything, it would not be naitive.

hope this helps

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
How is it getting old? It takes 4 seconds. You still have to open quickboot, get root permissions, and click on reboot.

You're not supposed to use adb to reboot if you are using a havs kernel? Why is that, if you are rebooting how could it affect the kernels functioning?

So I just installed the latest Kies, hooked up my SGS, ran a backup of the internal memory, removed the card, then reconnected to Kies and started the Froyo update I got offered. Kies downloaded the patch, the phone went into Download mode and patching started - now the progress bar in the Kies firmware update window is at maybe 5%, possibly less, and not moving. The screen on my phone went from download mode to fullscreen pale green. What is supposed to happen?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DamianGto:
If nothing has happened in 10 minutes then you can assume it has gone wrong.

You can only try to restart the phone. I guess it would go longer then the start screen.

But kies use to tell you how to fix that.

Try restart the phone and go to download mode. Don't unplugged.

If that not work try it with unplugged usb kabel

Nothing happened after about half an hour. Switched it off (by taking out the battery - nothing else gave any reaction) and back on -> phone/PC disconnect logo.

Switched to Download Mode after that (Vol Down + Start + Power), got Download mode. Plugged USB back in, Kies offered restoring firmware. Progress bar got to about 15% this time, then the screen on my phone went orange, nothing since. Been like that for 5 minutes now.

Help?

Hi guys,

i am brand new to android, and love it. i used win mob before.

but i have a question. i tried to set my ip adress manually to a specific adress so i can connect to a wireless router, which has no dhcp activated.

i can find the wireless network and can connect, but the dhd always says "optaining ip adress from server" but it cant because i set it manually?

does that mean i can connect to this router?

any ideas or thoughts?

btw: i edit my ip setting in the wirleless-settings -> advanced or is there any other way where i have to do it too? is there another connection method for non dhcp routers?

Sounds like he didn't and that's why he sold it so cheap. Go to this thread and get the tools you will be needing http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=818439. Install the drivers then download the .zip and extract the files, download the pda.tar. Run Odin as administrator put the pda.tar in the pda slot and the pit file in the pit slot.

Next power off the phone and remove the SIM, your external sd card and battery. Plug the usb cable into the computer only then press and hold the volume up and down buttons at the same time, don't touch power, put the battery in and plug the usb into the phone. You should be in download mode, Odin should see your phone push start and let Odin run. This will take you to a working phone, just like it was when it came from AT&T.

Good luck and let us know if it works.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparker366:
First of can you should never have paid him for the phone if it wasn't fully working when you got it.

Second can you get into download mode? If so then get the one click odin and flash back to stock and you will have a working phone. If you can't get into download mode then demand your money back from him and drop him as a friend.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhiannon224:
I linked him to c3poLOL's Odin package instead that way if he has a borked three button combo this will fix that too. I agree, not a good friend, sounds like he soft bricked it before selling it. Should be fixable and then it's a steal, if it was off contract.

Try using a different usb port on your pc, one in the back where the motherboard is, perhaps you need more power, I've seen this happen. Are you familiar with adb? Are you able to get into download or recovery mode using the three button combo. ADB will work from the recovery screen.

I had the same issue today someones rom screwed up my phone and it would boot up with sound, but be stuck at the att screen. Wasnt able to activate download mode with buttons or adb, because permissions werent granted. So my advice for anyone else that has this problem get superoneclick to root your device and get permissions ( I used Z4 root which i will never do again) and run cmd.exe type in the path you have for example mine was C:\Users\PEGLEG\android-sdk-windows\tools\adb shell (modify it for where you have yours, then type in reboot download, and you should get into the download screen where odin will fix your device.

I have used the latest licensed copy of CDMA workshop to change the SPC to 000000 on this Evo and set the NAM1 and EVDO settings EXACTLY identical to an Alltel flashed and branded HTC Hero, of course the usernames have been changed to my cell number... Has exact same PRL, everything.

I have rooted and it's running stock latest 2.2 sense rom.

It's up and working correctly on alltel's network, 5 Bars of 3G service but it says I am roaming, the Alltel branded Hero I have here is NOT roaming and is activated on a different cell number on the same alltel account in the family plan.

I re-read and re-wrote all the values in cdma workshop and re-compared everything to the hero, it's still roaming, tried *228'ing and updating PRL, updates correctly but... alltel pushes the same exact PRL 31005 that I originally programmed to it. This is the same PRL running on the stock alltel hero, evo still says it is roaming.

When I force the phone to CDMA only, I get nothing but "data call failure" messages and 1X will not work, 1X logo doesn't even show up on the status bar, when I have it in automatic mode (1x/3G) and I leave a 3G zone, where I know 1X works, the EVO will not connect to 1x, just keeps throwing "data call failure" messages at me. When it's connected to 3G it doesn't give me a problem at all, 3G works flawlessly in all apps until I try using wifi tether I get data call failure again, pdanet works perfectly with 3G though when tethered. 3G does not drop either, works perfectly. In ##DEBUG EVDO it shows Authenticated, I'd like 1X to work because not everywhere I go has 3G coverage and these data call failure errors are every 10 seconds when im not in a 3G zone.

What's the deal here? My last htc android phone (eris) that I flashed to alltel worked perfect, 1x and 3g switched when needed without issues. I have gotten rid of ALL sprint apk's in the system/app. Is there any other apps that are forcing the phone to try to 1x connect to sprint's network? Profile 0 and profile 1 on my programming are all set to alltel's data values.

Thanks for any help.

Ok Steve I guess I will illustrate this time what I have done so maybe this can help. I don't know what your area is like in regards to VZW or Sprint coverage, but I have found that the Evo does not like the Alltel PRL. I understand you used the identical prl when doing the Eris with no issues and I did the same with the HTC DInc but it's not the same game this time. The phone will say it is roaming even if you have your home SID set properly for your "correct" Alltel PRL. So here goes:
