SymTorrent Help please

[spiritflare]

Hello!

I installed the latest Symtorrent on my N95. However, when I go to any torrent sites, and click on download torrent, all I see is "Not Supported" error
displayed on the screen.

I tried to run symtorrent at the sametime as my browser to see if it would pick up the .torrent files, but it doesn't.

Any idea how to get it working?

Thanks!

It is intensely annoying isn't it. You can't even "view source" from the browser to get the torrent name.

If I email a torrent I find on my PC to my phone I can save the attachment but then I can't find it on the phone to allow SymTorrent to load it, it just saves it into the Notes application.

Anyone got this to work on an N95?

The only way I have got it to work is by copying the torrent files over usb, by memory card from the PC or using SymSMB 2.0.

I have got the full speed of my connection using Symtorrent, and am happy to recommend it .

Anyone who can figure out how to dl unsupported files or associate torrent files with Symtorrent, pls post here :)

So would downloading, on the fly, say a new album, then unzipping (f required) adding files to music player, and playing them be a reality? or are there just to many problems?

Its a reality, only problem is you need to transfer the torrents from your PC initially

[mariokarter]

theyve gotta figure that out....i might as well just download the stuff to the computer originally.

Well i got it go work today with both my wifi and mobile rogers internet;)
This is what i did

Open Opera Mobile
go to a torrent site (piratesbay is where i went)
Find what you want and click on DOWNLOAD THIS TORRENT
You will get a mesage about Opera cant find app to open file, just hit yes and save file,
(I saved mine to the sd card name)
Exit Opera
Open Symtorrent and add file that you just saved.
(i go to my SD card then other and select the file)
and that its, so far up to 50kB/s

My setting in symtorrent are
Download file to my sd card
Network -> Rogers Internet
Right key -> Exit
Incomming Port 6881
Hash checking -- > Enable

Hope this helps someone

Yep, just use Opera Mobile or Mini to download the .torrent, then save it and open with Symtorrent. Works great.
You could use the Coreplayer trick and then Ytasks to associate .torrent with Symtorrent. To make this work with email attached torrents you have to give Symtorrent Allfiles capabilities with MoreCaps, requiring hacked phone and pretty complicated.
