Torch Mobile releases Iris Browser v1.1.7

[Torx]

once skyfire properly supports vga, which should be soon right? there will be an awesome browser war going on.
unfortunately i havent recieved an email from the torch blog website confirming my signup so i cant comment about it. wtf. i would like to help as best as i can but their signup thing is broken


TO INSTALL FLASH
install juggalo flash cab (dunno if this is required but i installed it to device first)
drop NPFL3ppc.dll into program files/iris broswer/plugins

restart iris, and flash will be replaced with a black box and play button. press the play button!

edit: youtube vids dont seem to be playing but other embedded flash like on the main page works

That works like a charm Torx.

Thanks for posting that. Like ya said, i now get the black box which looks like it'll play, but... nothing happens. That's alright though, it's a step in the right direction. I appreciate the effort. Thanks,

You need to long press the play button black box and then wait. It will come up eventually depending on how much data needs to be loaded.

yea, you know iris requires a long press for just about everything.

im wondering if the latest official adobe flash cab will make anything better.
or a latest .dll file

I just noticed that there's new version out already, 1.1.2. I have no idea what they've changed, their blog doesn't have an update about it.

Is this flash for Opera as well?

If you call blurry, unreadable text support then I guess skyfire supports VGA. Personally, I think its horrible.
