Wow... just... wow. That's like saying "I have a list of URL's to download MP3's from illegally but I don't use them." There would be no reason for your homebrewed Marketplace to show you paid apps if you didn't intend on using them. What's your 'download' button for?
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
Is that the world-wide figure? If so there doesn't seem to be very many non-US apps at the moment.

There are a few out there already, as well as a few websites. I know what you mean though, and I generally browse the marketplace thru my own app rather than Zune.

In all fairness he did say he accidentally came across the 7418 number. Could be he was updating his app and accidentally changed cost=free to cost=any :) In any case I don't see what all the hoopla is about - it definitely wasn't what the thread was about.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
"Woops, I accidentally typed 'any' when I meant to type 'free'." I understand that this is not on topic... but he immediately got all butt hurt and defensive when somebody called him on it. That's my point. The guilty always act guilty.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
My point is that he shouldn't have been called on it in the first place - it was completely off topic. Had he not included the screenshot he did no-one would have been bothered about the possible "piracy" implications.

Also, like I said above, I too have my own marketplace browser. It will let me browse paid and free apps as well as carrier and OEM specific apps. You know what? That browser also has a download button. Not because I pirate the apps (because really, you wouldn't want to - the convenience of purchasing on-device and getting updates without faffing on is well worth the buck or five any app costs you) but because, at the time of developing the app I could.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
Actually I don't know, just all apps listed on zest store for some languages (check the source code)

P.S. BTW, where is the "Block moron" button on xda?! :D This lamo is really lame...
[Windows Phone 7 General] nicksti:
I am asking this for my knowledge, not for use:

You can defeat the marketplace by writing a 3rd party app to browse and download paid apps?

It just seems a little fragile to me then if this is the case. Do the other app places suffer from this kind of vulnerability?
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
Sorry, I didn't mean you personally (but I've received a few pm's asking me for app).

Yes, it's a complete MS app delivery schema weakness. But the bug in the MS XAP protection is much more worse ;)

I've heard about HUGE bug on the Android market but can't explain more detailed. BTW, where is NO 100% secure scheme if you are using internet, it's an axiom ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
In short, yes. However you still need to unsign the .xap's and have an unlocked phone to side-load them onto. Might not seem like a huge issue, and TBH it's probably not - but I just don't see piracy in the mobile sector as a problem. The apps are so cheap that the convenience of on-device purchase and install along with in-place app updates far outweigh the monetary savings you will make by not paying for that $1.49 app or $3.99 game.

And yes, I'm saying this as a commercial developer.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
Contributing to the off topic chatter, this is why I am so against homebrew, even if you personally aren't abusing it... And why I have such an issue with OEM apps like LGs being pirated to work on all devices... Its like XDAs moral code is an on demand scheme and doesn't exist as long as its the OEMs getting screwed and not other users...

[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
So, does that means there are 7000+ paid apps, and 5000+ free only apps? Interesting... Seems the Marketplace is maturing rather rapidly.

I don't think XDA wouldn't exist if there wasn't a sort of elastic line defining developer "morallity"
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
I do think the line is rather skewed when developers for WinMo ROMs were forced to remove Swype & such from their ROMs, but other developers are freely releasing LG's text to speech app... An app that requires you buy an LG device in order to get... Only because it's "cool" and so many users find it "useful"... Don't get me wrong, I would love to have the app, but I'm only going to get it if a) I can pay for it (unless it becomes available for free in the MP) or b) HTC/Microsoft/Another Developer releases their own version

I've gained a lot of respect for how hard people, even large corporations, work at producing these products, and throughout the years I've moved heavily away from pirating products... Even music & movies now, I have Zune & Netflix...

Can you link me to this LG app please. I'd dig for it myself but I'm at work. I want to check the ins and outs of this one.... if it needs to come down, it will.

Sent from my fingers to your face...
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
I don't have the link to hand, but I think you are sort of missing the point he was making which is; almost all of the OEM specific WP7 apps (HTC, LG and Samsung apps at least) have had their signatures and device dependencies removed and then posted on xda. Most of them are available in a thread (or several) in the Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking forum.

All of these require you to own the respective handset to get the apps as they are not available in the general marketplace. The same goes for some carrier apps.

LG was especially hit earlier as their OEM apps are some of the best available. Not to mention the fact they give away a lot of generic marketplace apps for free also - all of which has at one point or another been available for free here on the forums. Most of the generic and carrier apps have been removed though, so perhaps a clarification on what actually is permissable would be needed.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
That is true. Pirating is pirating, whether it's an OEM or an individual developer.
[Windows Phone 7 General] conantroutman:
Ok, so if in future you see something like this, don't hesitate to hit the report button. This will allow a member of the moderation team to assess the situation and take the appropriate course of action.

Distributing these apps as xaps is a bit of a grey area but if for instance an LG OEM app was cooked into a rom flashable to HTC devices or vice versa then that would not be allowed.

Sent from my fingers to your face...
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
It's funny that he can't find the link, because if you search for "lg app xap" you'll find the thread posted by emigrating that shows how to rip the navigon map files from an iPhone and put them into a device specific wp7 navigon app that isn't generally available or intended to have maps outside of a very specific region. I'm just saying it's all very murky waters. But more to the point, the OP didn't discuss, imply, or suggest any piracy whatsoever, start another thread about xda morality
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
I made a pretty big deal in the thread and I was basically told universally to stfu and quit complaining... I just think issues like that create a dangerous precedent... This isn't Android we are talking about... I actually think the original HD2 Android release was handled perfectly, requiring source & excluding paid software... WP7 wasn't due to users not caring because "LG already makes enough money"

Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
I agree completely. Not addressing piracy issues when they present themselves is like ignoring the fact that they are a problem at all. You can't just come here, show people that you're pirating (whether you admit it or not), and expect to stay on the topic you're asking about. While having a separate xda thread about piracy morality would not be a bad idea, not calling people out on the table when they show that they are pirating apps would be ignoring a very big problem. We're here to develop, not steal.
[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
Didn't quite get a handle on your post, but you're right. I did posted about that exact thing. I didn't include any links to any of the software or maps though, both of which I own thru the Omnia7 and iPhone I own.

The thing is, any and all Windows Mobile or Phone ROMs are already illegal due to the licensing cost of the OS contained in them. Sure, we can tell ourselves it's okay because we already bought a phone with WM6 or WP7, but it's really not - especially not in the case of the HD2. But Microsoft obviously knows about this site and are turning a blind eye. Heck, they know about the HD2 activation key debacle and have pretty much turned a blind eye to that also.

What I'm getting at is that much of the confusion (if we can call it that) probably comes from this. Microsoft don't seem to have a problem with us distributing their software so why should LG, HTC or T-Mobile have a problem with us distributing their software shipped with said Windows phones.

It's a very fine line indeed, but I stand by my opinion that piracy in the mobile sector just isn't worth if. Or even a huge problem - looking at the iPhone there are plenty of pirated apps floating around on the net but most people do actually purchase their apps.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PieOfJustice:
I didn't realize the mortality police where on such high force today. I'll be sure not to step on any ants on my way out the door. We should all now know that creating and application that can query the amount of apps in th wp7 marketplace, and starting a thread on it will have every chump on this forum screaming piracy. Get a grip lads. It was a simple question.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
^ You're a fool

Problem is that WinMo was flashed to another WinMo device, these apps are being manipulated to be installed on devices they weren't intended for... And I agree with the HD2 WP7... I'm not a fan of it, at all...

I just think if these OEM apps are allowed, then swype should've never been pulled...

Thanks for the reply.

I already had a look at Eried's tool and its great.

However, it seems that has harcoded max 100 results.

I am wondering how "WP7 Marketplace 1.2" is able to return all the list and use "*" as search query...
[Windows Phone 7 General] sensboston:
MS marketplace query return resulting XML by 100 apps per request; to get all info you should re-request until you get 'em all (no link to the next query).

Wildcard "*" is used just to simplify search all app.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modano:
hi,

I just installed streakdroid 1.9 and now i have no data connectivity, only cellular.

on 1.9 i get this error when trying to connect no wifi "process.com.android.settings has stopped unexpectedly"

on 1.7 i manage to get rid of that error, but when trying to connect, it just disconnects right away. and still no 3g.

i was on android 2.2 from o2, with baseband GAUSB1A131921-EU, which has stayed the same.

running "fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn" and "fastboot -i 0x413c reboot" does nothing. baseband stays the same.

please, anyone know what to do? perhaps its not even a baseband issue?

thanks in advance

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] DeathLamp:
Today I want to present my new app, I'm currently working on: Remote.

What it does:

Remote allows you to access and control your computer from anywhere.

It comes with a server-application for your PC.

You can scroll through all your files, start them and you are also able to close/maximize and start applications on your computer from your phone.

Depending on which application is in foreground, user-defined key-combinations,commands and folders are displayed.

So for example, when vlc is active, your media-folder and key-combinations to Pause/Play and Fullscreen are displayed.

Later versions will feature a option to transfer files to your phone.

Remote isn't finished yet, I'm currently working on the performance and key-combinations.

The design also isn't finished yet, but the app is intended to feel like an official app.

When finished, Remote will be available for free!

Please give some input and critics or ideas for features :)

04.04.2011: Added Fileextensions (see "fileex.png") and DirectoryContentCounter (see "files.png")

09.04.2011: Added Favorites and also fixed the performance problem caused by contextmenues (see "favorites.png")

Sincerly

DeathLamp

UPDATE: The App has been published! (Long time ago but it seems that newswriters only read the first post :D)

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] DeathLamp:

They are stored in the clockwork folder on the root of your internal sd. I think.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] creepyncrawly:
You don't have to. They become somewhat redundant after a while and begin taking up space if you create them often. Only the most recent one is really relevant, as long as your rom is working correctly. In one sense, they're kind of like restore points in windows.

I had SpeedMod kernel installed for a while, and if I remember correctly, they go into the sdcard/clockworkmod/backup directory, same as regular nandroid backups.
