The more I use Skyfire the more I like it. I keep giving myself reasons to use it. Did you know it was Valentine’s Day? Yeah! So I used it to check movies on Yahoo’s Full Movie site instead of the mobile site. I also showed my brother his company’s website on the browser. And More >

I know you don’t like Pocket Internet Explorer and more than likely you have tried Opera Mini or Opera Mobile, and perhaps you are even waiting for FireFox Mobile to come out.

I was having the no sound issue as well. Install the cab to MAIN MEMORY, not storage card and sound works perfect.

Not sexy but it works… You can set volume level by editing the value in the skyfiresettings.txt file. you’ll find it in the installed dir on your phone. By default, value is set to 0.

What do you have to change the value to in the skyfiresettings volume? I tried 5 and 50 and still no sound. I saved mine to the main memory. Would appreciate feedback. Thanks!
