I can't believe the quickness in browsing. I am running this on my Wizard and Hermes. No problems and is very fast. Just copy a cab file onto your phone and install it. Lot's better then IE

very cool find! Hey, I just have a question, what settings are you using? Like, how much Zoom and font size? This is a very fast browser, but I miss the page sizing by IE.
Can't use it when im on wlan but when i use 3G i works.
Any tip for that would be great!
I can use opera and ie with wlan.
not too bad ...now i can download all that good porn ive been missing

I used WLAN on my Wizard. Just tried it on my Hermes, just went into connections/ advanced/ Changed it from MY ISP to MY Work Network, which is blank.

In Menu/View, it has all that. Tap the screen twice and it zooms also. You can set it back to default but it has so many settings that you just have to play with it.Swift Navi.
Animated zoom, PageMap, Column Rendering, It tells you all about it on that link

Hi
Thank's for the tip, but it didn't help me.
Opera, IE works in wlan and 3G but Netfront only works in 3G for me.
I installed netfront at my SD card, could that be the problem?
Seems to work on Wifi for me....however....
after putting this browser through multiple speed tests, it continuously produced slow results...especially in comparison with IE
when connected to wifi, i tested multiple times, and heres about the averages i would get with the browsers
IE-1.5 mbps
Opera-800 kbps
Picsel-1.0 mbps
NetFront- 300 kbps
the only reason i wanted to speed test was because netfront felt slow, and according to those tests, it was alot slower than my other browsers...
i LOVE the browser, the wordwrapping to fit on screen works great, i like the scrolling, tabbed browsing, and everything.....featurewise, its better than opera, speedwise its terrible...
I have my hermes running this browser and I can say it is just as fast via cnet bandwidth test as IE but it loads pages much faster....
I have it working on 3g aND WIFI
I found it was terribly slow on all roms I used as well. Oh, and it hogs memory like you wouldn't believe! I found it to be unusable in the end, especially if you minimise it and try and do anything else. Even opening the address book while running this programme was a painfully slow eperience. A pity really--because the concept is great. If they could only improve on memory usage and speed for the next version.

Installed to memory or storage card? Installing it on your storage card would slow it down.
i have not experienced any instability issues or problems with memory usage, over IE memory usage.
I dont like that the mobil sites, like google or espn dont load like they should.
overall i really like the bookmark selector, cool looking.

hey all, check out this video of mine - full windows vista on my htc touch pro!
really it is just windows mobile remote desktop but there is absolutely zero lag except for when i play games or 1080p videos... simply amazing what tech can do now a days.
click here for the video
let me just say, that this, my friends, is the future of mobile computing.
1) handheld device with a Rx rate that is > 10Mbit/sec
2) desktop computer with a Tx rate that is > 10Mbit/sec
3) software (or even hardware acceleration) that is capable of rendering the complete desktop experience and Tx via internet
although, just a simple HD video stream of the server-side and an ultra fast Tx/Rx of input commands from the client to the server would work just as well and probably be easier to do. remote desktop mobile is great, but it can be so much simpler to provide the robust experience of the desktop computing environment.
why try and shrink everything to fit in such small devices? worry about thermal issues, ie no active cooling in a pda phone? just make it good enough to send and recieve data fast enough that there is no noticable lag (a human can't react to something that fast - check it http://biae.clemson.edu/bpc/bp/Lab/110/reaction.html)... so really, all you need is a connection between the two devices with a ping anywhere between 0ms and 190ms and there will be no noticable difference to the user (visually no lag @ 190ms, audiologists say our reaction time to sound is about 160ms).
i am just floored with this notion. if this doesn't become the standard in the years to come, i will seriously be surprised. the only thing limiting us right now is bandwidth, as my own testing of this has shown that any lag is not even close to noticable (esp since the ping to my comp via EVDO was less than 20ms) on the connections we already have. just a bit more throughput and this technology will be perfect.
the beauty of this type of computing is that the mobile device is not bound by the processor or video card or anything else, save the uplink and downlink speed for the internet (and driving the units display too); and, of course, the program on the "server"/desktop that renders and Tx the data...
anyone else ready for the future?
some might say "oh, well that's too small for me... i'll take my lappy or desktop over that any day..." screens are small now - but what about when flexable LCD/OLED screens become mainstream? you could fold up a device in your pocket and unravel it to a 22" monitor... or how about this, google picoprojector - cabable of displaying 1080p images, decent lumen output (not that bright, but the thing is the size of a zippo lighter), nice contrast ratio, DLP... that could be incorporated into the device - some new business phones in japan already have a pico-dlp projector built in.
i can't tell you how many times ive just wanted to use my gaming rig, work on photoshop, or do some 3D editing but ive been stuck somewhere without my monster rig - or on a long flight but my lappy is no powerhouse (7150m gfx just doesn't cut it)...
and what about that, what if the connection speeds (and also rendering speed of the stream too) was fast enough were i could just throw it on a "dummy" laptop (kinda like the redfly?) that has nothing more than a high-res display, CDMA 4G (which is just as fast as gigabit lan), keyboard, and wifi - this machine would act EXACTLY as your desktop, except you can take it with you anywhere there is a cell phone signal or wifi signal...
man, when 4G hits the USA, things are going to really open up... literally, the flood gates will be pulled back then - can you imagine? gigabit networking over a cell network??!! downloading a full DVD-5 in just under 5 minutes!!?

Looks good....are you using a static IP at home?
Nice OP.
I've been doing that a lot on the run, especially when one of the servers or the nodes gone haywire.
I have to say, a VGA screen is better than the QVGA.
Now, time to pull some prank that I can run OS X on this thing
no static IP, unfortunately verizon fios does not hand them out to residential users; alas, it is dynamic... however, fios only renews the IP every so often - not sure if it is every hour, day, or week - but for the solid 3 or 4 hours i played around with my desktop via my touch pro today, the IP stayed the same.
really, all i wanted to do was wake on my PVR via the magical buzz from the lan - which causes my comp to either boot into mythbuntu or vista configed to load up sagetv, siggraph, and a firewirestb controller automatically. sagetv works beautifully like this - not only can i placeshift and watch the tube (i have sling too, but it doesn't allow for pvr) but i can have my pvr(computer) turned off and be like "oh crap, i forgot to turn on the pvr to record the penn state game... no problem, i'll just log in remotely, which will wake on lan, and then go right into sagetv and start recording...
i mean, the possibilities are endless with this - i love it. at work and need to pull a large file off your computer? no problem, you have your desktop in the palm of your hand. the other cool part about wm6.1 rdp is that it can map your phone as a drive, making file transfers flawless and as fast as your storage card can take them, essentially.

haha, i had some of my friends going that this phone had vista on it - in all honesty, noone but the tech savvy would be able to know that a pda couldn't run it.
although, windows 7 has a stripped kernal that only needs 512Mb of ram - our pda phones are ALMOST able to keep up with that... and just wait for the Via Nano, Intel Atom, Nvidia Tegra, or AMD's offering to show up in a phone.... even better, a pda phone with a UMD drive on it (psp + desktop pc power + small form factor = total convergence device).
man do i love technology

For dynamic IPs you should try DynDNS. Its a free service that allows you to point a url at your IP, comes with a nifty little service to update the url IP mapping automatically. Works great, but I had to setup port forwarding fro RDP since my compy is behind a wifi router. I am able to access my compy remotely with great ease. and looks beautiful on the 640x480 screen!
Are you using WM6RDP.cab? If you are, have you figured out a way to zoom in to areas of the desktop?
good look on that program, will make things much easier for me! esp if verizon decies to switch the ip on me when i can't be near the comp to figure it out...
this is the wm6.1 rom, i think the zoom function was stripped from it - at least that is what i read. although, i believe that the 6.0 version still has zoom enabled, but i am not 100 percent positive about that... honestly, the vga screen makes it really nice to look at and i didn't have too much of a problem reading anything - but zoom would be a welcome feature.
give the 6.0 version out and if it does have zoom enabled and the speed is up there with this version let me know, cause i would like to have as many features for this as possible... doesn't make much sense to remove a zooming option to me :/
I just installed zaDesktop and it's perfect! I can choose what size I want the session to be, then it will have scroll bars. I can also zoom in and out while in the session and exit full screen mode easily.

i meant the one in the video, is that zadesktop or microsoft remote desktop?
Im a complete noob to this remote desktop thing. How do you set it up?
is there anything u need to setup on the computer before it will connect? i have my computer (vista 64bit ultimate) accepting all remote desktop connections... but when i try to connect using zdesktop thru my ip (and even when i use my DNS IP redirect!) i get an error message saying "An error message cannot be displayed because an optional resource assembly containing it cannot be found" any ideas?
Another option is LogMeIn:
https://secure.logmein.com/home.asp
I have been using this on my HTC Mogul, my laptop (Vista Home Premium), and my desktop (Vista Home Premium). It's especially handy when I need to restart Orb on my home desktop PC while at work
By the way - I seem to remember MS Remote Desktop not working on certain versions of Vista.
does logmein cost money? all i saw was a 1 month trial and u have to pay a subscription for each computer... =/
zaDesktop works, but the seperate mouse control is extremely annoying. There has to be someone who can hack the standard remote desktop client and extend the screen size to 1024x768 or better. One of our developers here did a similar thing to the desktop version when it didn't support resolutions above 1600x1200. They just hacked the binary directly searching for that resolution in binary and substituting a higher resolution. Worked like a charm.
yeah the one in my video is the wm6.1 rdp...
when i get the chance i will explain how to set this up - and if anyone beats me to the chance of explaining it on rdp then that's fine too lol busy busy
Hello all!
I just bought a Vibrant, and unlocked to use the phone on AT&T network.
The phone works great although I have an issue with the stock web browser.
With my AT&T SIM card inserted, I get good phone signal and 3G icon in the taskbar. The phone function works great, 3G works great with most application except web browsers-stock one, Dolphin, DolphinHD, Skyfire But Opera Mini actually works on 3G. Weird.
In the web browsers, I type an URL, and 3G icon seems working, but a second later, the page displays "Access Forbidden" in all web browsers. (Yes, I tried these browsers on WiFi, they work great on WiFi)
I tried to search the forum, but couldn't find an answer for this.
Does anybody know about this issue? and workaround/resolution for this?
Thx!!!

I deleted Proxy settings in APN settings, and it works right away.
I'm getting crappy download, upload, and 3G connectivity speeds on my Virgin Mobile LG Optimus V. I'm rooted, running CyanogenMod-7.2.0-BACKside-IHO-KANG, Build ID: eng.jerry.20111122.082819, Build Number: GRJ90 (11222011/VM670), and Kernal Version: 2.6.32.9-v3.3 [email protected] #1, and Android Version: 2.3.7.
I've read that flashing Franco Kernal may help a little bit with network speeds, but that was for the Optimus S. The Optimus S & V are pretty much the same, so would it be safe to flash Franco's Kernel with the ROM that I'm using now?
I've also read that dialing ##3282#, and editing the HTTP PD Port to value 0 and Address to 0.0.0.0 would then increase download speeds by 0.20-0.60 MBPS, but that was for the HTC Evo. I tried dialing to service code ##3282# on my dialer, and nothing happened.
Finally, I also read that doing a PRL Update manually and inserting/replacing Virgin Mobiles PRL file with a new and updated PRL file will significantly increase signal and speeds, but its risky, and requires depth to do so. Also, it allows to connect to Verizon's towers, therefore it would then not allow any data connectivity for browser, market, etc.
So, folks, my question is, is there ANYTHING or ANY WAY I can improve my download/browser speeds? Would downloading a proxy app from the Market work and apply faster speeds for downloading on my phone?
Thanks for any and all help, as it will be greatly appreciated!

It is super difficult. And really it'd be like putting a supercharger on a pinto. Sounds great when you tell your friends, but you're not going to win any races. The real problem is sprints network, and the fact that we buy the cheapest service available from people who lease a very small percentage of their bandwidth. I get 50- 125 kbps consistently. Not allot to do besides try another carrier.

Yeah for real! That's no joke lol I might try doing a PRL update tonight, but that's a big maybe. I used to get 200kbps download when I first got with Virgin Mobile with the LG Optimus V, now it seems my speeds are slowly deteriorating. And it doesn't help that Virgin Mobile is gonna bring a data cap on their 3G in 2012 to only 2.5GB, after that, they are gonna put a maximum set download speed cap after the customer uses up the 2.5GB in the month. Which sucks for me bc I'm always on Facebook, Linkdin, Twitter, browsing the market, web, downloading, etc. :/
Well social media doesn't take up very much data at all, it's the downloads that might get you if you use them a lot.

ok thanks. i may try it. still a little skeptical as a few of the comments mentioned that it broke their wifi and that the developer didn't respond to their emails.
franco's kernel is for the msm7227 chipset (unless he built one for the OS I'm unaware of,) the OV/OS have msm7627.
they are NOT compatible.
I got nasty side effects back when I flashed a msm7227 kernel on my OV for experimental purposes. it took a couple of days before it would boot consistently again even though I put a compatible kernel back on it immediately after it locked up ugly from the wrong chipset compiled kernel. It would freeze on boot until the battery was pulled for a minute or two.
I can get much better download speeds in a debian chroot on the OV with multiple download threads, using axel, but I don't know of any way to multithread downloads in Android.
As an example, my average DL speed ranges from 1-30K/sec. With axel, I can pull down over 100K/sec, with no other variables obviously changed. the Android browser very rarely goes over 100K/sec on my OV. (I am in a lousy service area.)
SetDNS (or other similar apps) "speed up the connection" by taking some of the guess work out of trying to find the resource on the web.
Most of the slowness in wireless comes from the fact that a wireless network is like a hub (in that it's a shared medium) so if two or more people transmit at the same time there is a network collision (two or more signals interfear with each other keeping the tower from understanding the request) per TCP/IP protocal all devices involved in the collision must back off for a random amount of time (to ensure they don't all retransmit at the same time again) and try again. This effect grows as the size of the wireless network grows and the more people who are on it. It effects cellular much more than wifi as you can have many more people on a cell tower as it covers much more ground.
***Intermission***
Now when your phone makes a DNS request (usually the browser, but some apps as well) there are actually many steps involved in trying to turn a url into an ip address, there are mutliple ways other than dns to turn a url into an address (most of which are legacy but it still tries anyway) trying all of these ways in addition to trying to find a DNS server means multiple request on the network which increases the likelyhood of collisions thus increasing the latency and causing timeouts (this is why sometimes your browser will start to load a page and then just hang there for awhile.)
***Almost there, Hang on just a little longer***
Now back to setDNS, this app allows you to specify a dns IP address (instead of it trying to find one) thus forcing it to use that address before trying anyother method, so your phone browser (or app) doesn't waste time looking for a dns or trying legacy methods. Thus reducing the request and collision/timeouts on a network, overall making your phone load stuff much quicker.
Works well enough that I use the web version of gmail and google reader instead of native apps (though native apps are generally quicker as they don't have to load the ui everytime you open it and sometimes the app will use an ip instead of a url, though some apps use url's in the code because the resources at needs have dynamically allocated (and thus always changing) ip addresses.)
Does anyone know if the Turbo/Supercharger scripts actually work? I assume any difference seen is minimal and also it may wear down your battery even faster. Battery life on these phones is already precious.
I have tried to search the forum but I still can't find what I'm looking for.
It seems there're some problems with my downloading speed. My download speed always reach max speed when download gameloft data (1gb takes only ~20 minutes), but aside from that, it's slow. Wifi or 3G, even a 10mb file downloading from a file hosting service like mediafire takes ~30 minutes to complete, if it doesn't stuck.
I'm using Hyperdroid with Siyah kernel. But really, I've got this problem since stock and it won't disappear no matter which rom I tried.
Can someone at least tell me what is wrong? It's frustrated to have to connect to PC everytimes I want to grab something from the internet.

And no idea how the heck the connection got interrupted, I think most of the time it does (otherwise it would continued to download), and only on my phone. When it doesn't, the speed is really slow. Trying another browser doesn't solve it as I tried some of them and the results are the same.
what does speed test on wifi give u?
More information the better
try a speedtest..
sometimes download data depend on server too..
some server give you highspeed, and some server slower..
it should be normal if you normally download on same server with the average speed..
i download data via gaming also fast than download via mediahosting
Just tried some. It gave me 5.12Mps on download speed and 0.57 on upload speed. And the server is in my country, chose another server will give me a connection error. Maybe that explains something, I get max download speed with gameloft data downloading because there's gameloft server in my country. But then comes the question, why downloading speed from server outside my country is so slow (and usually stucks) on my phone? While using the same connection on my PC gives me usual speed (and by "usual" I mean it's really fast).
So the 5.12Mbps your getting.... what connection is that from??
I have a 50Mbps line and get 10Mbps - 24Mbps depending on where i connect to and signal strength etc... over WiFi
I wouldn't say that's bad if its from a 10Mbps line for example ... what were you expecting / how much worse is it than your PC?
On my PC it's about 10-15. The slowest is about 5-6 I think. And it's about the fastest my phone can get.
Sorry for bumping the thread, But I have the same problem
Very low wifi-speeds. Perhaps not rom related
On my computer I get around 16mb/sec, And I used to get that also on my phone. But now the speed is around 2mb/sec. Please somebody know what the problem can be??
regards
I opened a thread with a bunch of pictures and it took about 5 seconds on wifi (~11 Mbit.) I opened the same thread using LTE and it loaded most of the page then hung, with most of the images not loaded. It slowly loaded the images, but took nearly a minute. I got frustrated with waiting, fired up the speedtest app, and got 25 Mbit down and 11 Mbit up... while it was still working on the web page!
It does this a lot. Why is my LTE connection, which tests more than twice as fast as my wifi, so crappy in use?

try different browser and see if u have same issue
I figured it out. It was only happening with opera mobile (the only browser I use because it's so awesome!) So I went through the settings and noticed the setting for opera turbo was set to "off when on wifi" and apparently on for cellular data. I set it so opera turbo is always off and the problem is gone. Apparently opera's turbo servers are having problems or something. Opera turbo is where it routs traffic through their servers first and compresses before sending to your phone, btw.
I guess LTE is faster than Opera Turbo. Thanks for sharing.
