DeepFish! (New microsoft browser for WM5+ devices!)

Has anyone tried it yet?
http://labs.live.com/Deepfish/whatis.aspx

I saw this posted elsewhere and tried to sign up, but they have already stopped new applications
Would love to try it on my Wizard though. Opera is fine for me on the Universal, but anything less than VGA would benefit from something like this.

My activation ID is different so I wonder if they're tracking these?
Oh, and doesn't posting this break the rules????

@Griffy wiffy Thanks for posting the cab-file and the code
So far Deepfish works smnooth and offers a nice idea on browsing the internet on a ppc but in its early development stage it's not useful for daily purpose, but shouldn't take long until we have a good alternative for surfing the web

I guess that the posted cab is for pocket PC? Any chance anyone is willing to post the smartphone version?

"As a technology preview, Deepfish is early in its development cycle (still a few releases from beta quality). As a result some features are not implemented or are only partially implemented. Currently, the technology preview does not support ActiveX controls, AJAX, cookies, Javascript, and HTTP POST."
PUKE... I don't get how its worth browsing with???? no cookies??? no java??? I think i'll wait till final release

this is very nice idea, it is useful right now, it looks a lot like I already saw on some Nokia phones, E series. I'm wandering why is not freely available for download, is money the only thing that drives M$ !?

Does anyone know if this works on WM6. I've tried installing this and it says its successful but there is no new program installed nor any shortcut icons>
Any ideas

seem the activation code was blocked

Here is the DeepFish for SmartPhone Version

Guess it doesn't work for WM2003SE?

It won't and I don't think WM2003(SE) support will ever be released. The platform is being ntirely phased out; for exmaple, NetFront 3.4 and Minimo 0.2 don't support it either.

Looking For Free IM App For WM6/SmartPhone, and free SSH app

Hi. I'm running a T-Mobile Dash with Windows Mobile 6, and I'm looking for a free IM client that can connect to AIM, at least. I know Windows Live gives me Pocket MSNIM, but only a tiny minority of my friends use that. The on-board Oz Instant Messenger refuses to work with AT&T, and I just get error messages, so I'm kind of at a stand-still right now.
The other thing I'm looking for is a lower priority, I'm trying to find an SSH client for my SmartPhone too. PocketPuTTY, I've heard of, but I can't seem to find it. Again, I'm cheap, so I'm hoping for something free.
There's one catch to all this: I'm running a Mac, so EXE installers are no-go. CABs and SFX (Self-Extracting ZIPs) are usable, but anything more complex isn't going to work.
Thanks for all the help!

Welcome to XDA-Dev
Rule of thumb: follow my articles - I've published full Bibles and roundups on almost all aspects of handheld computing. Your question is answered in the Smartphone General forum, at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323654
Let me know if you need help in extracing the CAB file of any EXE installers - I'll upload it for you.

Oohh, useful!
Well, thank you. Your article was thorough, and (in the end) informative. I was aware of Mundu, IM+ and Imov messengers, and I was hoping someone had an alternative to them that was free. Your article eventually lead me to the Basic version of Imov, but the problem is that it's one of those set-up EXEs that I can't seem to crack. I've managed to find a download of Imov Basic 1.22, and I'd be willing to provide it for you.
Thank you for the offer, and all the help.

is there any cracked verson available for mundu

i downloaded the trial from the verizon get apps feature on my i760 and it gave me the full version i think. registration says Valid till forever. probably easier to just say registered but it really does say till forever LOL

IM App
Have you tried Palringo yet?

Fring is a free IM app too(Just released a new version today that supports AIM). Palringo is pretty good too.

Since I don't see it mentioned, you may be able to use PocketPuTTY,
http://www.pocketputty.net/ ,
for a SSH application. It works for me. The file that you download while named PocketPuTTY.exe is a Windows Mobile binary. Just copy it to your phone and run it. Hope it works for you.

So regarding IM clients Do they all use webgateways provided by the Makers. Are there any that directly connect to the AIM, Yahoo!, and MSN Servers?
Not that I walk around wearing a tinfoil hat. but I just like to know where my data is being sent.
Octro Chat uses one. But I can't find any info as to if mundu uses one. If they all use it I will get over it but I was just curious is anyone knew.

pocket putty doesnt run on smartphones just ppc. i am also looking for a free shh client for smartphone (wm standard)

if your looking for just aim..this is about as good as your gonna get lol

First of all, if you are talking about Opera Mobile, then it is a commercial software so no ROM release will have it.
Now, the second part. There aren't very many ROMs released for Kaiser yet so go through each release and check yourself to see what software are included with the release.

thanks for that
ive never used opera but i was advised by a colleague to get it
whats you r views on it ,,is it worth getting (i presume being commercial itll cost to obtain)
is it worth actually installing ???
thanks

Certain sites seem to work best on different browsers. I have both Opera Mobile and PIE installed (and use both regularly). There is a 30 day trial of Opera...check it out before you buy. Also try Opera Mini - also a very good browser which I've used at times. Hopefully, someone will soon integrate all the best features of each.

OPERA MINI is free dude and its the best browser for windows mobile device to date.
and also there are TONS of roms released for the kaiser..
I'm guess sherpa has an attitude and posts just to get his post count up.. cuz obviously his post was rather pointless.

Opera Mini is free (java based) and Opera Mobile (executable) is commercial software that is currently 24usd to purchase.

I think my post was very straightforward. Opera Mobile will not be included with any release; to see if Opera Mini is included, just go through the ROM release threads. It's that simple.
Plus, if I really wanted to post just to get my post counts up then I would have thousands of posts by now since 2004.

I believe that one of Duttys roms had OPERA in it. I guess it was the V1 version of his fantastic rom - but the Forum has agreed not to use commercial software.....
But Companero. Use Operamini instead - its greeeeaat. By far the fastest browser you can get - and you can sync your links with MyOpera so you wont miss anything if you flash a new rom.

I do know that Jack's current FULL version has Opera Mobile in it. I believe it's out there if you look hard enough.

Yes. There is a post in the Device Upgrading area (top part of the forums) that has the how to do this.
OperaMini works well in most cases, but remember that whatever you are doing is rendered on a remote server. Don't use it for anything that should be secure (ie: don't do purchases or passwords across OperaMini IMO).

whats the big f**ing deal about sherpas post? he said as simple as needed: opera mobile is commercial. except for very few cooks, noone creates ROMs which include commercial version of different software for obvious reasons. if u want it, go buy it!
on the other hand, opera mini is free and you can install it in less than 5 minutes on every ROM, provided it has the right java applet installed. If not, one can also install Indent Java Midi applet which works perfect with Opera Mini.
i really hate all this smart ass talking and this show off from some of the users around here. it is a lot quicker and more useful to give a simple answer, even if it had been posted thousand times rather than telling to go read the wiki, search with google etc.
bleah!

Live mesh mobile client available

If you have been using the live mesh technical preview, the mobile client for wm6 is now available. Just sign in as normal and then add device.

I'm still seeing "Coming soon for mobile" The limited Mac tech preview shows up, though.

I signed in and out of live mesh and it appeared.

Must not have replicated to the servers I hit yet. I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for the heads-up!

I really like live mesh, (for me at least), it just works out of the box.

Hi !
Is there someone that can post the cab ?
Thanks !
Whatever !
I found it :
http://m.mesh.com/install/wm6/LiveMesh.cab
But it doesn't connect to the mesh : "only available to a limited number of users"

Arrgh this is annoying, Ive been using Mesh for a while and now its comming up with for U.S only wtf?

It says US and UK on the Live Mesh blog. I am however having trouble at the point where it's trying to add the device, possibly because I'm on GPRS at the moment and it might be timing out, I guess.

SQL CE error
When I try to install I get this error message....
"Live Mesh was unable to find a suitable version of SQL CE on this device. Unable to install Live Mesh."
I've tried to install SQL, i downloaded it from microsoft directly, and its listed as "SQLServerCompact 3.5 Core" under Remove Programs....
Any ideas??? I really want to use this....

Yes, it's only for US and UK
I installed the mesh cab, and using an "US" account (a french one, but with my country changed to US ) it WORKS ! And works well. I have now a "cabstore" synced with my own server, live mesh and my TyTN II.
Great service !

Got it last night, works great with my XV6800.

I've got this exact same problem. I posted over on the Microsoft Mesh forum and am waiting for a conclusive answer. It's been passed over to the Mobile Dev team apparently.
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en/LiveMesh/thread/8e80d590-9c88-4522-bdab-3d23bea718c0
I wonder if it's got anything to do with cooked roms? I'm running CRC WM 6.1 v13.0 on my Hermes.
--Update--
Apparently there is an issue with cooked ROMs as they don't all include SQL. Installing SQL seperately will not help unless you use a version lower the 3.5 but even that has not been proven yet.
I'm going to try and find an older version of SQL and give it a bash.
Further information here:
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMeshMobile/thread/b8a6da09-c53a-4168-91bf-f476d2a1876f

Firstly I am in the UK Ive downloaded the updated cab and now everytime I run it it gets past verifying user and then gets stuck on Getting mobile phone identifier and then fails

SQL CE Issue has been identified and resolved
The client needs SQL CE 3.1 installed, and does not work with SQL CE 3.5 installed.
Read and follow information in forum:
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMeshMobile/thread/b8a6da09-c53a-4168-91bf-f476d2a1876f/

All working well after applying Jef K's fix over on the Mesh Forum.
Problem now is that the MEsh Client can't acquire my device ID to register the phone onto my mesh.
Issue being delt with over at http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/LiveMeshMobile/thread/c7ce844c-a4e3-4be4-838d-1ebdca5986e7

I downloaded the cab but says that I cannot do it because only a limited number of users can right now. How sad...

Limited Users, anyone else got the same problem?
cheeers Tom

I use mesh for a back up right now and it works great for my home computers. Some things that bugged me are:
No remote desktop.
It will only sync your remote directories to the main memory. I tried to sync my work folder and it didn't place it in the storage card.
It launches external applications to view the mesh folders (Pocket IE) and the file explorer to view local folders.
All in all, a nice first attempt. Build in remote desktop and I would PAY for a service like this!

@Networkguy: it's still the first beta... keep waiting
Unfortunately i can't find a today plugin. This is sad. Anyone has an idea?

[APP]Skype 3.0

I have been searching for ages but unable to find skype for my HTC HD2... well my troubles came to an end last night! some time after midnight.
I am sure this may have been posted here before but i couldnt find it, possibly because i suck at searching, but anywhos, for anybody who cannot find skype for their HTC HD2 or for that matter any WinMo Handset here it is.
Source: CNET
Download It From Here
Extracted from donwloaded exe file
SkypeSP.cab
SkypePPC.cab
i have the PPC version installed on my HTC and the only issue is on the create account screen, and you will need to download a patch that fixes the sound coming out of the wrong speaker
i think this is the correct one i am at work atm and havent had a chance to test it can somebody confirm this is the right patch?

Why can’t I download Skype Lite or Skype for Windows® phones?
Unfortunately, Skype Lite – a version of Skype for your mobile phone – and Skype for Windows phones are no longer available for download from our site.
We’ve chosen to withdraw Skype Lite and Skype for Windows phones because we want to offer our new customers an improved mobile experience – much like the version that has proved so popular on the iPhone, and which is now available on Symbian phones. Our focus is on providing a rich user experience that allows you to enjoy free Skype-to-Skype and low cost calls as easily on the move as you do at your desktop.
We felt that Skype Lite and Skype for Windows phones were not offering the best possible Skype experience.

What is skype. I've heard about it for these past 2 years but never bother to check it out.
I just went to the official website and the only thing I got from it was People paying for a skype credit to use skype services such as "free calling" and not using mobile minutes.
Can someone tell me what use do you use skype on their HD2 for? It seems like its great but I am not convinced enough to try it out.

I can upload to u a skype cab. but I suggest to use fring, since it allows to speak with earclip. voice experience provided by skype.cab is very bizzarre...the only loadspeaker will work!

I have Skype 3.0 for Windows Mobile which must be executed from your PC and an Active Sync connection and I have it installed on my Rhodium and it works great via Wi-Fi and wherever I have 3G. As just mentioned there is a CAB version available as well. I don't get this decision to make it unavailable to Windows Mobile users given that Verizon Wireless has Windows Mobile devices in their stable and if you get your hands on 3.0 for WM devices why no love for these devices?

What a shame... they cant develop good interface for winmo and they blame it easily on the OS itself
There is nothing the HD2 cant do what an iPhone does but there are a million things the HD2 can do but the iPhone can not

The Second link i quoted in my original post, has an app that you run as well as Skype that reroutes sound to the earpeice, or louspeaker.
