I have just downloaded photon flash browser on passport.
First impression
Browser is very slow
BBC Iplayer
Does not work says content only available in UK. I am in UK!
Does the photon browser use a proxy?
Comparison:
os 10.3.0 BlackBerry app available which WORKS!
Without app BlackBerry browser with flash enabled in desktop mode DOES WORK also.
Android apps bbc iplayer and media player available both required and seem to work which is a relief as expect likely to work on 10.3.1
ITV player
Does not work thru photon
Comparison:
os 10.3.0 BlackBerry app not available.
Android app available thru snap but does not work - crash after first minute or so and heats phone
Without app BlackBerry browser with flash enabled in desktop mode DOES WORK.
4OD
Does not work thru photon
Comparison:
os 10.3.0 BlackBerry app not available.
Android app downloaded thru snap refuses to install (that's unusual?)
Without app BlackBerry browser with flash enabled DOES WORK.
Desktop mode not required.
Demand 5
Does not work thru photon
Comparison:
os 10.3.0 BlackBerry app not available.
Android app does not work media play won't start
Without app BlackBerry browser with flash enabled DOES WORK.
Desktop mode not required.
Conclusion Photon does not provide flash alternative (for UK customers anyway)!
All not totally lost Tvplayer android app will play all channels at time they are being aired but has no catch up facility.
Photon reinstalled. Might be useful for watching some US TV channels even from UK? - Any ideas?
