Re: Problems with Skyfire

Yes, it runs fine in protrait, that's not the issue. Try running it in Landscape . . .

yeah i dunno... everyone has been complaining that it doesnt work at all cause it shows in half screen on vga devices cause it's for qvga. now you guys wanna claim it works. i just tried it and it's the same in portrait and landscape. Existentialism your ppc info says titan, so maybe you haven't tried it on a pro..

edit: nvmd i got it working after either a soft reset or switching my keyboard from full to compact qwerty then back again... not sure which, but hey it's working.

Re: Problems with Skyfire

I have a Touch Pro and it works. When you first install it, it comes on with half the screen and you need to put your email and password in. After you do that close skyfire then run it again with the keyboard open. It should run good but it doesnt look as good as it did on my mogul, its not as clear.

yeah runs in landscape as long as you start with the keyboard open and leave it open... also runs in portrait mode as long as you leave it in portrait.. hope they come out with an official vga version soon. They lock any posts regarding this on their forum, kinda strange.

Re: Problems with Skyfire

Working here as well, but its quite slow compared to opera when scrolling/zooming; it is loading pages fine and quick though, I agree the images and visuals dont look very sharp because they are being blown up to VGA. However, it can display full pages all the time and is still quite beneficial to have.

Re: Problems with Skyfire

That "fix" doesnt really work. well i mean the app does what its supposed to do but it doesnt help skyfire. it basically makes stuff like text and start menu different sizes. 96dpi makes the start menu small as !@#$ lol

Deffinitly gives your phone more screen real estate if you are willing to use a stylus a lot

Re: Problems with Skyfire

There is still an active thread over at Skyfire. Its about this work around they have...but the promising thing is that halfway down the thread Skyfire's people are claiming that they are close to a full VGA supported version of Skyfire.

Re: Skyfire mobile?

Extremely well-known issue. Doesn't support VGA phones yet. Period.
