I suppose the safe way to tinker with the updated apps is to use the IPK Packager, then install them onto the SDK Emulator using webOS Quick Install

i actually kinda like how my phone has turned from my primary phone to a dev phone in less than a few hours... nobody can get a hold of me

You can refer to this file:

/usr/lib/ipkg/info/com.palm.app.browser.list

Let me know how this goes, I was working all night last night trying to get the browser to recognize the Flash plugin I dropped in.

Hey ToniCipriani!
I just found where the plugin preference gets enabled!!

/var/luna/preferences/systemprefs.db
flashplugins|false <- (or true, depending on what you set on 2.0)

I only copied the libflashplugin.so to the correct place, and "enabled" it per the 2.0 browser preferences card, but I don't get anything.

I don't know how much you did copy from the 2.0 browser, but could you try opening the systemprefsdb and create that entry?

palm-webos-device / # sqlite3 /var/luna/preferences/systemprefs.db
sqlite> insert into Preferences VALUES ("flashplugins","true");
sqlite> .quit

This should enable the plugin the same way it gets enabled on a 2.0 device, or at least enables the setting on the preferences, we still have to see if it works

Looks like some updated preferences in the Clock/Alarm app. It retained my alarms and everything, nice...

OH MY GOSH! Ascending volume for the alarm. My wife wont be so ****ed now when we wake up to something blasting when it starts playing.

well how do you do that? haha

Holy smokes! You go away for a day and BAM! Nice thread.

Connect with novaterm/use terminal on your Pre

type (the letters in bold):
palm-webos-device / # sqlite3 /var/luna/preferences/systemprefs.db
You'll enter sqlite, there you'll type:
sqlite> insert into Preferences VALUES ("flashplugins","true");
sqlite> .quit

there

This won't work with the standard browser, even copying the libflashplayer.so plugin to the correct place. Maybe ToniCipriani who has a developer Pre and was toying around with the browser yesterday can make it work since he has gone farther than us

i keep getting an error that says "Error: unable to open database "./luna/preferences/systemprefs.db": unable to open database file...


any clues?

[rwhitby]

It's likely to be /var/luna/preferences/.... or something like that.

Actually I tried that, grabbed the DB on to my machine and use SQLite manager to add the row, then drop the DB back in. No dice.

Sorry forgot to post back...

thanks! commands went thru fine this time, but the options didn't appear in the browser. did you say you did it on the stock browser and just copied the libflashplugin.so to the correct directory?

Yep, I didn't do anything else. No, the option doesn't appear on the browser as the preferences card on 1.4 doesn't show it, but it should be enabled for the plugin purposes.

But as ToniCiprinani reported, it still doesn't work :S

Maybe the problem is that we're not registering correctly the plugin. If I go to miniclip.com, I try to launch games, but I only get a gray screen (no lego blocks)

I think something is different about the FlashMiniPlugin library (different calls or something) that is causing this, but I don't know.

Could someone run the readelf on /usr/bin/BrowserServer and report the libraries back here? Thanks!

Actually I notice that too. The lego block is gone and now the page outright doesn't recognize Flash, saying it's not installed.

I tried a drop-in replacement of the Flash Mini Adapter Plugin, doesn't work either.
