Have you seen that Romaxa already committed patches for QT5?

Sorry for the broken URL, but my posts never get approved by moderators.....

Could that mean that:

- Harmattan is getting QT5 soon?
- Meltemi comes with QT5?

:eek:

So once flash is released for N9, will Romaxa's Beta, Aurora, and Nightly(Central) builds have flash included in them? Right now I'm using the most recent Aurora, I hope I won't have to revert to the previous version to get flash.

much appreciated. the performance doesn't seem out of this world, hell the N900 even plays youtube flash smoother but I doubt that's the finished product, and am guessing flash on fennec will probably give mozilla a wakeup call that people actually use there browser and they should do some work on it.

I'm bumping this thread because it's so so so important.

Just a small update from me, I am now not working on this - but we did get Firefox out to the store and Flash 10.1 should come out soon. As I am not involved in it actively, I cannot say what happens next, but there are people working on it and trying to get improvements.

Sorry for sounding like a pest, but when you say Flash should be 'soon', is that like, days, or are we talking maybe June/July?

Thanks :)

Why is everyone so eager to have Flash on this already slow and sluggish browser?

I couldn't care less about it right now. I've browsed the Web without Flash content for months and cannot see the real use of it. Everything, well, at least almost everything, works without Flash anyway nowadays.

I've spoken to Oleg, there will be future builds in the Store that use FP10.1.
This is Fennec 10.02, there are the nightly, aurora, & beta builds still coming through.
Still getting clarification on what the plans are for the Gecko + Qt/SwipeUX builds.*
And whether they will also be eligible for FP10.1, doubtful....

*i.e. truly native & better suited the UX, probably more snappy too.

Good for you...and I browse the web daily with my N9 and the lack of flash makes the online experience limited almost instantly...videos won't play, audio won't play...there's so many flash elements out there (even on major sites). HTML5 is great and expanding, but flash is still very common and will be for a pretty long time.
