Custom Ringtones are coming with Mango (shown at MIX11 by Joe Belfiore).

Turn by Turn GPS is coming (with voice guidance). Not sure all the countries though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sdnsilva:
Thanks for the reply ... Please excuse my bad English ... but is that Brazil will be one of them had maps and voice? I got my HD7 hoping to have a device that would meet me even though he was not officially sold here in my country ...

One thing I also miss is the lack of convenience in installing programs, as I understand it will also change, correct?:confused:
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
Yah there are a bunch of new countries getting access to market in Mango, and if Bing turn by turn doesn't cover you, Nokias Ovi Maps probably will. All OEM's are getting access to Nokias OVI map data (and Bing Maps online as well).

Marketplace Adding with Mango:

Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Greece, Hungary, India, Japan, Korea (South), Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Russia, South Africa, Sweden, Taiwan

Did i miss something or there isn´t anything mentioned about VOIP comming with mango?

VOIP would be nice
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
There will be an official Skype client, but it won't be integrated just yet unfortunately.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dazza9075:
aye, WP is a very very good smartphone but its not a pocketPC, WM is still king of the hill when it comes to this, i would trully love for there to be a way of booting WM on a WP7 device, in a similar way Android works via somelike like magldr, or even better if MS would release a professional version. I expect MS is just targeting the easiest user base, ie, smartphone users, but i doubt very much that they have forgotten that WM is still used by a huge portion of the businesses out there, they probably feel that at least for the time being, WM is more than capable of dealing with business needs but i hope they do something sooner rather than later to update this

My thoughts on Mango previews

Hi all

As a WP7 user I am really excited by the new features/changes included in Mango. As a personal user, rather than a professional user, I think the features will be exactly what I am looking for. I would like developer APIs for things like "Share to Facebook" for any selected text, like the copy paste button that appeared in Nodo.

I have thought for a while that Microsoft should offer two types of mobile device. The first should be along the lines of WP7/Mango. The second should be along the lines of a thin client that logs into some sort of server based software, like Office 365, that is hosted on a secure corporate network and does much of the work for the device.

Most consumers want to be able to post a photo to Facebook and watch Youtube videos, but most companies issuing mobile devices to their employees will only be interested in how those devices enhance those employees work productivity.

That said, Blackberry devices were designed solely with business users in mind but have actually found a significant market with consumers.

Just my thoughts.

Cheers

Two great news today, IOS 5 overhaul, and now this.
[Windows Phone 7 General] HamerPlyr:
That would be HUGE for me. Not being able to quickly sync tasks with Exchange or to dial from within a task is a major irritation for me every business day. There are work-arounds, but frankly, they suck.

Thanks for reporting the find!

Volume Control Display

Hi all

In addition to moonshines' list above, I noticed on the Mango demo video that there are better volume control graphics whereby the volume is displayed as a fractions and the numbers are much bigger and more legible than on WP7.

Cheers

[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
I suppose you could put this in the rumor category, but during the video that showed the new "upload to Facebook" for videos, if you look at the app bar menu that pops up on the phone, it also showed a "share..." option that isn't there today. That implies that MMS support for videos is going to be included in Mango.
[Windows Phone 7 General] moonshines:
yes it can be an mms feature. this is a cool feature to have. thanks for this nice find. thanks also to andrew in working for audio controls info.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ja007a:
Am I the only one that wants the ability to have black tiles?
[Windows Phone 7 General] moonshines:
in fact, im looking forward to getting additional color themes in mango. but looking at the options provided in the settings of the developer tools in mango,developers are not seeing any additional color schemes
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
That may be true, but we don't know if the build of Mango included in the SDK is feature complete. I'm sure there have been numerous builds since the SDK was packaged. Even in some of the videos, the Microsoft reps have mentioned that they have to be careful which phone they use for a demo, since some have newer builds, and they don't want people to see the features added for those builds until they are ready.

Microsoft reveals battery saver mode for Windows Phone Mango

Winload reports that Battery Saver, activated from the settings menu, will allow Mango users to save device battery once the phone reaches a low amount of battery. Windows Phone Mango will disable push email, background applications and wi-fi networks automatically. Users can still check for email manually and use the text messages and phone features. Mango will automatically enable the features again once the device has been charged. The feature will come in handy for power users who regularly use devices features and run weak on battery.

[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Loved that!

Can't wait the release!
[Windows Phone 7 General] sethk:
I'm going to apologize if this has already been answered or if I should be posting this elsewhere, but does the mango come with a new set of reference hardware requirements?

I realize that the update will work on existing hardware, however, I'm wondering if the update will include support for newer hardware than the single core, ~1 ghz Qualcomm SoCs that are required for current WP7? If not, when will Microsoft announce next gen hardware for WP7? With the speed at which the mobile hardware market is moving, I'm wondering if Microsoft is moving fast enough on the hardware front.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Thunder_47:
Does it look like there will be custom ringtones, As in music from the zune player as ringtones, and the same thing for text message alerts etc...?

I am still learning WP7 on my DVP, so far it hasnt disappointed me except for the lack of custom ringtones.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
Custom ringtones will be in Mango, but we aren't sure exactly how the implementation is done yet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thekiller99:
Far!!! i wish they would release it earlier
[Windows Phone 7 General] weijoon:
HTML 5 is the future, but flash is optional for me. If WP7 have it, I treat it as a bonus, if WP7 dun have it, it doesn't bother me much. What I really wish is at least please, MS, make your YT apps more functional, at least let it catch the embedded video link in the website, so when we click on it, it will open the video player, rather then getting a update to a recent version of Adobe flash error....
[Windows Phone 7 General] rko-freaK:
Some of the features should been inlcuded on release of the device. It´s just impossible. We have to wait till autumn. They should really release the Mango update earlier! I can´t wait ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] moonshines:
just a quick question. does ios4 and android 2.3(gingerbread) have this built in feature?i guess both has it with the use of a third party app.
[Windows Phone 7 General] hamzie:
I think with android its with an app

and for iphone.. theres only a battery reserve system

so itll turn off with 5% remaning.. and if you want to turn it on to use the 5% you can
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
profiles

profiles allow for changing cpu clock cycles, data use, and scheduling for more battery life on cyanogenmod (android). my nexus lasted 20 days with an aftermarket battery 2400mah vs stock 1400mah.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tone_:
No they dont, it might be in ios5?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Purple11:
It would look awesome on Omnia.. :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
it doesn't look as good as you'd think...
[Windows Phone 7 General] ja007a:
Hmmm, sounds like you have seen this...any pics showing it?
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
I actually tried black on black, and it looked pretty bad. I was expecting greatness.

*edit* check out munkeyphyst's post below for the black on black.

The black on white doesn't look too bad though. Here's a picture:
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
home screen looks cool, maybe, but there are other problems...

you can see here that the black makes a new message text disapear

look ma, no text bubbles

edit:ok, i got the images to post

link to full size images: http://postimage.org/gallery/1etrko6tk/
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
ok, nevermind, profiles and scheduling don't exist ;-)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tone_:
Can you post up a picture of the built in setting you use to disable push email, background applications and wi-fi networks when the battery is low?
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
it's a mango feature. It's not in the wild just yet.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
I thought all phones did this? :shrugs shoulders:
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
nope. Not yet
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
You can manually turn off WiFi, turn off data, set email to not sync, etc. But it is not automated when battery gets low...

windowsphone blog detailed today changes in music+video hub in mango

Better playback controls: The playback controls are bigger and are now aligned with the mini-playback control—so your thumbs always know where to go.

Podcasts now included :You can already listen to podcasts on your Windows Phone. The catch is you need your computer and the Zune software to actually browse and download them. In Mango, you can now do all this right on your phone (U.S. customers only).

Better artist images: We found that the background artist images were sometimes too bright, which made some controls hard to see. Our design team worked hard to find the right opacity for the images. The end result you’ll see in Mango has a great layered look and never interferes with the controls.

More playback info: We’ve added the artist name to the music player queue so that when you’re jamming to your new Smart DJ mix, you know exactly what’s up next.

More playback options: Tap the Repeat button a couple of times and you’ll see the addition of a Repeat Once mode for those songs you just can’t get enough of.

New playlist option: Yep, that’s right—you can finally create playlists on your device. Add a mix of whatever you want

to your queue or start a Smart DJ mix and save it as a playlist.

Better data management: In Mango, Zune Pass subscribers now see an icon on the phone when they’re listening to streamed music—so you always know when you’re consuming data.

More video options: Last but not least, for videos, we’ve added a full-screen toggle and video scrubbing (where supported) so you have quick access to the parts of your videos you love most—features we heard you ask for!

A DJ in your pocket We all have those moments when we want to listen to some music. But not just

anything. We want tunes that fit the mood. A new feature coming in Mango called Smart DJ is designed to provide just the right mix. Smart DJ takes “seeds”—an artist, album, or song— and creates a music mix that’s similar using whatever songs it finds on your phone. If you have a monthly Zune Pass music subscription, Smart DJ selects from the millions of tracks available in the Zune catalog.

Find stuff in Marketplace easier : Now when you start typing in the Marketplace search box, you’ll see search

terms appear. Search results are also now organized by content type (apps or games, music, or podcasts). We make it even simpler to find what you want by indicating exactly what each search result is—artist, album, song, or playlist, for example. Marketplace search is also context sensitive. Start a search from the podcast Marketplace and you’ll land right into the podcast results pivot. Same goes for music.

[Windows Phone 7 General] imaginarynumber:
I really don't understand why people get flamed for wanting Mango/WP7 to deliver more?!?!?

I appreciate that there are those that just want to diss WP, but I for one am still (naively) hoping that it will evolve into a WM that actually works without excessive tweaking- that said I still want the freedom to tweak in an element of customisation

With regard to the discussion about flash: WM6.5 had flash support via 3rd party browsers. I used to watch HULU in the UK on my TP1 over 3g on the bus years ago. Animations such as Family Guy were as stutter free as my pc.

Sure WP7 is new and hopefully many of the the features that existed on phones 4+ years ago will be added in forth coming updates.

Frankly some of the missing features are no brainers, eg Ms saying that people wanted to cut and paste but not copy and paste, err... so they decided to introduce neither of them at launch is bizarre.

At best- Mango is delivering some of the basics that WP7 should have had from the outset.

For me- tethering is the deal breaker- I want to know that I can do it without hacking my phone one day and then discovering that I am shafted via a later update without any warning.

PLEASE don't be puerile and tell me to go and buy iOS or Android- I have been out of contract for over a year and am still waiting for something that will deliver the freedom that WM/CE gave me. I DON'T want Android or iOS.

As a happy WM user I honestly thought that WP7 would be a positive out of the box WM7. I was wrong and TBH initially felt as though MS were more interested in pouching iMuppets from iOS than trying to please those of us that had supported WM/CE.

I guess that following the poor unit sales they now appreciate that people that can tie up their own shoe laces want more than the X-box experience.

I want to join the good ship WP, but I still cant see who they actually want on-board...

Slag me off if you will but TBH that is becoming par for the course on XDA these days- I for one am glad that there are members here that have the savvy to read posts constructively and find solutions (independently of the large firms) and improve the lot of all of us.
[Windows Phone 7 General] purian23:
Good Post.. I am 100% in favor of where Microsoft is going myself. Yes definately lagging some features at the moment, but Mango will resolve most of those. I'm not entirely sure the exact audience they're looking for, but I use mine heavy for business., but love the play too!! I've had the HTC Arrive since Sprints release and absolutely love it!! I was coming from a HTC Pro, Pro2, Epic, Evo.. then Arrive..!! Never goin back!

Give the phone a week to grow on you, especially the sweet HD7 the T-Mobile offers' .. You won't regret your descion :)

Good Luck
[Windows Phone 7 General] kronkykay:
Any hope for a File Explorer on this bloody mango release?

Can i attach a video to an email?

Can the Bluetooth pair with another device which aint running WP7 and transfer files?

Any hope on Themes? Not just changing colours!!....Annoying!!

I hope they fix all these lil' things in the release, because, right now, My Omnia 7 is so dieing for attention from as it has been stolen by my Dell Streak 5.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Zahurtex:
Simple Call Blocker and Profiler.

I have been trying out / using wp7 since no NODO then after NODO but I am surprised to see none include a simple call blocking software and a profile manager software like phoneweaver neither included in phn software nor in the market place.

Now mango is also without these much needed basic apps. :confused:
[Windows Phone 7 General] ruyzalim:
Is mango bringing us Flash?
[Windows Phone 7 General] hamzie:
No.

Mango does not bring flash
[Windows Phone 7 General] Avandor:
Brings us HTML 5 :cool:
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
Which is still not Flash, and does no good on the tens of thousands of current sites that use Flash extensively (and for many things besides just "watching videos").
[Windows Phone 7 General] ruyzalim:
Is Microsoft sleeping or what ! Flash is imperative i will create a website were we all could claim for flash in next realease mango!
[Windows Phone 7 General] OndraSter:
Flash sucks. Won just because of marketing (and that it was the 1st one here).

It doesn't depend on MS, it depends mostly on Adobe, to provide us flash plugin to IE.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Purple11:
Flash is not just about vedios.. their are so many Financial websites and Web Based trading that are completely dependent on flash..

[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:

BS. Microsoft has to allow it first. Adobe is more than willing to develop. MS stance is security reasons.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fouros:
what i still want to know is "will tethering be available" in either USB or wifi , otherwise its Android for me :( been using WM phones since the Hermes
[Windows Phone 7 General] Avandor:
On Kaspersky's top 10 computer software vulnerabilties list, Adobe holds the top 3 spots.
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
That's all well and good, but not giving users the option only makes things worse. They could include Flash, but have it disabled by default, forcing users to consciously choose to activate it. They could even make it such that the user has to acknowledge it the first time Flash is required in each browsing session.
