Skyfire 2.0 on Xperia

Overall I'm impressed. Opera seems to work a bit faster, but this loads the page perfectly (unlike opera) Also, Opera tends to have issues with some links, not so on this. So perhaps this'll be my main browser.

For the video I've been seeing an issue where it'd load a video but midway the loading bar will still be there when the video plays in the background...

So- I'd have the video playing with the loading bar still in the way ^^;;

Anyone else having that issue?
I'm in Japan on wifi~

Here's a video of what I'm talking about ^^;

Yep.. same problem here.. tried watching a video from the BBC website and it got to 71% before it started playing in the back... then stopped down loading and wouldn't let me control the playback.. all I could do was let it run.. or press back to exit the video player.

How did you install skyfire? I tried to download it from get.skyfire.com and i can't install it.

just search for it on the android app market, it installed fine for me from there

Partial flash support > no flash support :) i'm sure it'll get much better

connect your phone to the pc - place the file you downloaded from the skyfire.com site into it. Use an application that lets you see inside your SD card (try astro something or other program )

run it and install . (heading to bed at the moment if you still can't figure it out by the time i wake up, I'll go into more detail )

let's not forget that this app is still in beta so isn't going to work perfect all the time!

even in beta it works quite well! i like the flash support even though it has its problems atm

Hm, when comparing with Skyfire flash support on WM, there is still some long way to go. But great to see Skyfire on Android

Uninstalled it for now. It was causing random reboots on my device which were not present before the installation. Most of them from actually using the app. Probably just my device so no biggy. Hopefully the bugs are ironed out cause I actually like this better than the default
