Guest nghumphrey Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 (edited) it's the *only* winmo browser out there, which properly supports Flash...try to open heavy flash sites like fox.com or nba.com in opera and then do the same with skyfire and you'll see what i mean. UI may not be the best, but it does what no other browser can.... +1 I also use skyfire any time I need to goto a flash intensive site. Skyfire just loads everything how it should be like a "real" web brower. I also agree though that the UI could use some work in the finger friendly department. So right now it's two browsers for me. Skyfire for heavy flash and Opera for everything else. If Opera could render everything just like Skyfire does then we would have the perfect browser. Note: As I was typing up this comment I remembered that skyfire has version 1.0 out and went and checked it out. You can download a .cab straight from their site to your phone. Seems to load things alot faster. No major UI changes though. Note 2: I tried to hop onto hulu with the new skyfire 1.0 and although I can navigate the site and start a clip to the point where it says it is loading, it eventually returns an error suggesting that I check my internet connection. I thought maybe it was the 3g being too slow to buffer so then I jumped on a wifi connection and still got the same message. Anyone else try this?

Guest nghumphrey Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Hey WoZZeR, v5 is solid! I have converted from stock to m2d and really like it alot. One thing I miss is the transcriber. It's fine that you leave it out as I know its not for everyone but I can't find a .cab to replace it with. Shokka9's kitchen doesn't have one and the only thing I found in my searches is one that I think comes from a HTC and is alot slower than the Omnia one. Could you make a cab available for the transcriber? Pretty please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Draconius Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Hey Wozz. I flashed to v5 M2D and it seems to be a little laggy when loading texts, typing, or moving across the screen. Any ideas? And PLEASE do not put in skyfire. That browser is not very friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MadTripper Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 I updated to v5 this morning and it appears the google maps section in TouchFlo is not working.

Guest WoZZeR999 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 I forgot I changed the path. It'll be fixed in V.06.

Guest talkshowhost Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 - a couple of things... Charging via USB you will always get a trickle charge - don't expect it to charge as quick (or as full) as the AC adapter; therefore, you should see a charging benefit when connected for at least an hour. Also, when connected and charging via USB, you'll never get a full charge no matter how long - it'll just be real close. Another thing to be aware of, not all USB ports may be able to charge your device; when connected to my Redfly, it can only maintain my charge, but when I connect to a PC (desktop or notebook) I do get a charge. Are you plugging into a hub or front outputs of a desktop PC or monitor? Try plugging directly into the back of the PC for awhile (1+ hours) and see if you get better results. Thanks for the reply. I am charging with the same outlet on my work PC that charged my HTC 6900 perfectly every day for over a year. To give you a specific example, my omnia was at 65% and i went in a LOOOOONG meeting at work and left my omnia "charging " for over 3 hours. The omnia had a popup saying it was fully charged. I disconnected the omnia, had a 10 minute phone call, and checked the battery again and it was at 60%. The only thing I can think of is that the phone was never charging to begin with. the usb connection was maintaining the 65% charge, but not actively charging the phone. The only difference i notice between my omnia and the touch as far as charging goes is the screen would never turn off on my touch when charging via usb. with the omnia, the screen goes black. maybe charging stops when the screen turns off for some reason?

Guest Apo11on Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 I'm running v5 Lite - for some reason I cannot install TCPMP Omnia Phenom Edition 2 with Finger Menu cab neither on the Device or My Storage - it starts the installation and then it produces this error: "Installation was unsuccessful. The the program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions." The exact same cab previously installed fine on v4 M2D. Has anyone experienced the same problem? Any idea how to fix this? any solution for installing phenom's TCPMP? anyone? btw - TCPMP v3 installation fails with the same error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheDrizzle Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Just went from v.3 -> v.5 last night, and things look ok so far. One thing I wanted to report that I noticed with v.3 and this version: it seems like even when you have the default (Samsung) dialer enabled, when receiving calls it's still showing the default "black" incall screen, not the Samsung screen. It appears this happens when the call comes in when the device is locked (using the new "Ignore" , "Answer" sliders). I just tested this out and was able to re-create it. Has anyone else noticed this problem? If so, I'll log a bug in the tracker. Thanks again WoZZer for all your work, it's like getting a new phone each week with these new ROMs!!!
