Thanks in advance. I've got the latest Vegan installed.
1) how to use Nokia e71 GPS with gTablet?
2) multi-user for vegan?
3) dolphin HD browser, how to hide bookmark sidebar in landscape view?
4) best file manager? I'm using Dual File Manager
5) which is more user friendly, faster, stable vegan or tnt lite, or others?
6) any suggestions for armor case? my 6 year old might drop it while using it
Thank you!
1. I have not used, search the forum.
2. currently no rom for g-tab has this feature.
3. slide your finger to left, to open slide right.
4. stable : tnt lite, vegan. for noob stick with those two for a while.
5. start with screen protector and skin, and a malata like case, again search forum.
Thanks! I'll try searching some more. Somehow I can't seem to hide bookmark sidebar on dolphin.

I am sure, the number 1 question would be:
"Can I view the non-mobile YOUTUBE.com (Flash video) website?"
1. I don't care if it will because vtap does that just fine.
2. I like opera mini, if iopera 9.5 is 4 mb again like prior versions it stays off my phone
why do people keep starting Opera 9.5 threads?? this is the third one i've seen today! - also 11th Feb is the Demo at some show, not the Testing date.
Here you can download Opera_9_331.cab and for QVGA standard_skin.zip. It is cool and very very fast!!!
I get an error about it not being able to find the proxy.

Have a look in \Application Data\Opera9 There is a folder called skin. copy the zip file there (don't unzip it)

this xv6700 of mine has to be doing something right
I have installed it on my storage card 3 times the program won't show up under add/remove programs either so I hard reset and installed it on my main memory gah it takes a lot and the skin works now
wow! Really cool ! Works fine with QVGA skin on 8525 (Hermes)
I think it's cool. I deleted Netfront 3.5, because it is slower than Opera. It is very comfortable to browse Web with Opera 9.
This is a great browswer. It's much faster and has many other cool features over the IE and other browsers. By far the best I have tried.
How do you uninstall this? Not listed in remove programs...
why uninstall this one will stay on my phone
Yeah, it'd be nice to have an uninstaller. Anyone?

there is a video with a speed comparison test and the ui in action. enjoy.
So far pretty impressed. SPB keyboard doesn't work well though. Ignores the spaces which would make typing on the Touch a chore. Its real fast though. Desktop rendering rready to go in like 5-12 secs.

Nice user name, you should have taken out that turbo revving young punk Hot Rod.
Anyway, yeah an uninstaller would be great. Its a great browser though...but any idea on how to not make this the default browser? I can't access the flash bundle pack because of Opera, heh.
Looks lovely. The only thing I'm not liking at the moment is that you can either use the nice zoom/pan navigation method or the fit to screen text flowing, but not both. I'd like to see an option on the touch-and-hold context menu to switch the current page into Fit To Screen, or have the Zoom In/Out option automatically flow the text. It's a pain to keep scrolling left and right to read most pages, and it's even more of a pain to have to go to the settings to select Fit To Screen once you get to a page you actually want to read!
I've had my Orbit 2 for one day and find internet explorer unusable, so much that I'm considering sending it back and staying with my hermes/tytn/Orange M3100. The touch scroll/flow is very very sticky and slow.
On my hermes I have SPB Pocket Plus installed with the 'Smart Scrolling' feature on. With this, Internet Explorer finger-scrolling down web pages is super-smooth and fast.
I installed SPB Pocket Plus on my Orbit 2 thinking this would sort the problem out but when installed on the Orbit 2 the Smart Scrolling feature is missing (!?)
I really don't want to send the phone back, so any help with resolving this issue would be very much appreciated.
Please.... This has already been posted so often! Why don't you simply use the search function?
I'll give you one hint, however: ie_slow_scroll_fix.cab
sorry, I did search but didn't find that cab. thanks for the pointer!
I've installed it and scrolling is much improved, but still nowhere near as good as om my hermes with SPB Pocket plus installed with the Smart Scrolling feature.
Does anyone know why the Smart Scrolling feature of SPB Pocket plus isn't available when installed on the polaris (Orbit 2)?
try disabling htc's touchflo 1st?
It appears SBP PP's Smart Scrolling is not compatible with any TouchFlo device. I suppose thats a good enough reason for a little donation to support the chefs with their cooking of a TouchFlo + SPB Smart Scrolling compatible rom.
also u can try PIE for windows 6.1
Why not install the new Netfront Browser 3.5? It's got a really smooth scrooling function combined with tabbed browsing and the zoom-out function (like Opera mini). And it's free until May 31, so you won't have to worry anymore for the next three months.
The IE_slow_scroll_fix.cab, however, made scrolling perfectly smooth on my device. I don't think it could be much better. So perhaps you try to do a hard reset and then install it first or uninstall SPB and then install the cab? It should work almost perfectly...
Think TouchFlo + SPB Smart Scrolling compatible is impossible. You'd have to choose one. That's why I'd rather use SPB which at least comes with updates for bugs.
I agree with maati:
Install Netfront. Maybe till end of May HTC has released a new rom where the bug is fixed.
This worked for me
try this one also.. PIE for WM6.1

Guys, thanks for the suggestions!
I already have Netfont Browser 3.5 installed, and it has a very nice 'action'. Is there any way to get it to scale down the web page to a column like Internet Explorer does?
I've just tried Pocket Internet Explorer for WM6.1 (Thanks for the link alipi2007) and running this along with the IE_Slow_Scroll_Fix cab seems to do a better job.
However, let me give you an example to decribe the issue I still have:
When using the Polaris to view the index of this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php), I flick my thumb from the bottom of the Polaris screen to the top three times in quick succession - the screen scrolls and halts at the picture of the Wallaby handset.
Now, when I do the same on my Hermes running SPB Pocket Plus with Smart Scrolling, this three flicks of my thumb up the screen takes me down to the picture of the Vogue.
Quite some difference, don't you agree?
It's this speed of navigation and fluidity that I need on my Polaris.
Here is a link to the original Posting that I downloaded this from.

From Opera
http://www.opera.com/mobile/download/
I will get screen shots and a review up ASAP!!! I just installed and am messing around with it. There is also a widgets app which comes pre-loaded with a twitter widget, geoquizz, bubbles (game), status widget (ping.fm?), and google translator. You can click to add more and are taken to Widgets.Opera.com. where there is a selection to choose from. Seems Cool.
The scrolling seems to be quicker and smoother. Very nice. From the original post it seems that Turbo is off by default so I am now going in to Opera:Config to turn it on and see if there is a difference in loading.
Note:
June 12
I had been testing HSPL this week and havn't had a chance to play in Opera7 much anymore....... I just reinstalled on my newly flashed rom from udk..... So screenshots and such will be coming in the next few days. I'm very busy.

Overall experiance is good. Besides no zoombar. XDA loads faster.
I have experienced several freezes and crashes. It Is BETA though. So that is expected.
I have been able to get the zoombar working in some way. Not to zoom but I can use it to scroll down the page and through items. If intrested I can post the registry tweak for it.
There is a little animation noticed when rotating.
I am able to play video off of Youtube.com but not hulu.com
Screen rotation does not work at the moment. Using G-config as recommended below Works. Will see what registry edits were done using it.
I seems that in the original build Opera Config has more settings under adaptive zoom including one that says "zoom slider maximum" So this may be more tha a registry tweek. IDK
JUNE 7
It seems the zoombar is non-responsive. Could just be a registry tweak.... IDK though. Will try my best with waht little skill I have to look into it.
There is History when you start to type a URL
After a soft reset the Original Opera loads from the Browser Tab now.
Opera will not launch from Browser Tab after install and Bookmarks are not transfered. The original Opera Browser is still there and is not over writen though.
Just installed it and works great. Pages loads much faster and more smooth, turning the turbo mode didn't notice anything spectacular. Confirmed the ZOOM scroll bar does not work with the beta version. Hope its just a registry tweak or something.
Cheers,
Hi!
Hopefully HTC will release either a ROM upgrade or cab package that integrates opera 9.7 into TouchFlo. A cab package is maybe more likely at this beta stage.
Regards,
PK
Anybody manage to get the screen rotation working?
Screen roatation doesn't work as well...
Other than screen rotation, i am also having problem with suspending the device with opera 9.7 running.
I'm interested to see if someone can solve these issues too... other than that, it's faster and generally better.
cant read a page w/o to zoom in, but for the rest it is faster and sleeker
have tryed 9.7b1.
The page rendering is pretty fast,
but some pages are shown not correct.
to add rotation use G-Config
I, have tryed to enabling zooming with Advanced Config,
but the result was that the zoombar now scrolls thru the links.
Silly question guys... If I install the new opera, what will happen with the built in version? Will it be replaced or installed as a separate app?

No the original build stays in tact.
Some new notes on first post. Help is needed to enable zoombar if anyone knows. I got the zoombar working to scroll the page in opera.
I have installed beta 9.7 but it became the default browser. I was not happy about it so I uninstalled it. now links from mail are opened in IE instead of the pre-installed Opera. Is it supposed to do that or is there a way to get Opera back as default?

It installed as default for me as well. i don't know the specific registry edit but if you search the forums you can find it. Search for something like "setting Opera as default browser"
Sorry. It is beta so expect it to be buggy

Neither of them show the video sorry.... According to Opera No flash plugin is included with this Beta. So mebe later on it will but at the moment no...
From their site:
* Opera Turbo in Opera Mobile is still a preview-feature;
o Downloads don't work while Opera Turbo is enabled.
o Some settings (such as toggle on/off images) do not apply when Opera Turbo is enabled.
* On older WM 5.0 Devices with 480x800 resolution, switching between portrait and landscape may cause display errors. This is due to lack of support for this resolution in early versions of Microsoft's driver.
* Some input method editors are known not to work well with Opera because they do not comply with Microsoft's SIP and/or IME standard. When such an editor is detected by Opera, Opera will use a known (default) input method instead. An exception is EzInput v1.5, where the phone keypad and compact QUERTY, ABC mode doesn't work, but the rest of the modes work fine. We recommend upgrading to EzInput v2.0 to avoid this.
* Only support for FlashLite 3.x. No Flash plugin included.

Zoombar
nice that you figured out how to scroll now with the zoombar. Can you please share your knowledge?
And does anybody knows how to get this zoombar working again?
After installation the zoombar is not working anymore at the 9.5 and the 9.7beta version.
The 9.5 version is still on the phone as it comes with the rom.
Does anybody knows hot to change the Manila"Internet" tab from 9.5 to 9.7 beta
Thanks for you help,

I have had a search but can't find anything. Can the cicle be used to zoom as it is in the version of Opera that comes as standard? I like the look and feel of Opera Mobile, but can't use it without the circle zoom.
Yes, it can. Which version of Opera are you using, and on what ROM?
Opera is Mobile Beta 9.7 Build 35166
ROM is stock with the recent HTC update
Thanks
Opera 9.7 has not been adapted to the Raphael yet, and as such isn't able to zoom using the wheel. I'd recommend using a recent Opera 9.5 build such as 16983.
i wouldnt downgrade so quick. you can add the zoom wheel to by adding a registry key to htcs smart touch (thats what its called iirc, you can add zoom/scroll wheel settings to anything with some registry settings). there is a guide in the diamond forums. i followed it exactly and you loose dpad functionality but i question some of the steps and that may be avoidable. just do some searching, if i find the thread again ill share. but it is possible.
i also got rotation on opera 9.7 which was pretty easy with gconfig and htcs gsensor from the topaz. what i would really love is how to get rid of the automatic keyboard popup that 16983 has. theres gotta be a way. im not downgrading to get that though, id rather the speed of 9.7 than such a small annoyance taken care of.
pls dont flame me if this was posted before. i just find another cool way (maybe not) on how to quickly do end task and kill application instantlly on wm 6.5...actually this is not so new but a rediscovered trick! hope that others will find this tip helpfull.
im using atom life, and im eager to look for a way on how to maximize its limited memory and im an avid user of quickmenu... first of all, its free! although its not visually appealing to the new 6.5 interface...it is very usefull.
with the releases of the latest 6.5 rom, i just thought that quickmenu "x button"-to close and kill running application is useless in new 6.5 roms because the x button is now located at the lower screen... but its not! it is still there and still functional but invisible!!
You can use its setting to kill running programs by pressing the upper right corner of the screen where the old X button is located. although X is not there....program will be closed instantly from running!!
you can also set it up to put an old style start menu ( W/ or w/out icon) or To launch other QuickMenu's useful tools like hibernate (free mem), end task, Turnoff screen, reboot in the upper-left corner of the screen where the old start icon was or place it anywhere on the top with an icon.
here is the link in QuickMenu discussion
sorry, cant explain too much. but ive attached some screenshots:
hey2..may i know where did u get ur WM6.5.1?
