I have now submitted version 1.3 to Microsoft for testing and I will update the first post as soon as it is released.

After that I will look into Mango features and while users of Windows Phone 7.0 will still be able to download version 1.3, there will be only be new features for 7.1 users.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] slimshady322:
I have now updated the first post with information regarding the current release.

Like I said this will the final release for pre-Mango users.

I plan on including a Live Tile in Mango which will allow you to pin a gamertag to the start screen. It would show your player model and some stats (probably your overall Matchmaking K/D) on the new back site of the Mango Live Tile.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] slimshady322:
I have changed my mind a little on how to continue with development.

The next release will be available to all Windows Phone Users and will not feature Mango specific features.

Creating and updating a live tile in the background is not that easy so I will have to do some testing on that as soon as I am able to run Mango on my phone.

The emulator is not so useful because I can't really test how the live tile works or does not work in the long term and I cannot try out different connections (Wifi vs 3G).

Therefore there will be an update before for Mango Users that features simple thinks like fast app switiching.

This is the current plan for the future:

-1.4: Integration of Halo: Reach Challenge Initiative

-1.5: Mango Update (fast app switiching)

-1.6: Live Tile

As you can see from version 1.5 onward new features will only be available to Mango Users.

New feature requests are of course always welcome and if you would like to be a beta tester contact me via private message.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] slimshady322:
I have again changed my plans.

I want to get out an update for Windows Phone 7.5 as soon as possible. One reason is that with Windows Phone 7.5 this app will be able to play all rendered videos in 360p (and 720p if you have rendered the video in HD).

However, the HRCI API is not yet complete. Therefore I will probably disable HRCI and remove HRCI integration from the next release (version 1.4)

This is now the new schedule:

1.4:

- Mango-only update (support for Mango features such as fast-app switching)

- playback option for all rendered videos

1.5 (still Mango only because the rollout seems to be pretty smooth):

- HRCI Integration

The live tile requires a lot of testing and might either come in 1.5 but if the HRCI API is complete shortly after the release of 1.4, the live tile will come in a later update in 1.6

Anyway, for the new features (including the live tile) I would welcome beta testers, especially if you are running Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango).

If you would like to participate, you can either let me know through this forum or sign up on this website:

Windows Phone Beta
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] slimshady322:
OK 1.4 is now almost complete.

I have released a beta that features HRCI Integration on WindowsPhoneBeta.com. There are still open slots so if you are intersted please join.

This is still a 7.0 app so there is no fast app switching, but if you have 7.5 you can look forward to support for all rendered videos.

I will probably release this within a week and then, again about a week later I will update it to Mango.

However, HRCI will be removed from the final release because it is not yet done. HRCI will be added later when the guy who runs the site says it is ok.

Thus, this is the (final!) plan:

1.4 (7.0, ~week of Novemeber 7th):

- Video playback for 7.5 users

- other minor improvements

1.5 (7.5, ~week of November 14th):

- Mango specific features

Later:

- HRCI

- Live Tile
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] maxus08:
very good app
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] slimshady322:
After many delays I am finally able to release version 1.4 on the Windows Phone Marketplace.

This version has a slightly different icon because I was not allowed to continue using the Halo Logo in the app.

I have also updated the first post to reflect the current version.

The most important new feature is the option to play all rendered videos on Windows Phone 7.5 ("Mango").

You will be able to play videos in 360p SD an/or 720p HD, depending on the resolution you selected while rendering the video. Although 720p HD streaming does work, it requires a fast connection and even then it will stutter.

Therefore I recommend to always play videos in 360p.

Among some UI changes I have also added an option to save an image of the player model (spartan) to the pictures hub and I have made several efforts to speed up the app.

One of those efforts it the new setting "Connection". Until now, the app always used "Fast" and I suggest that you keep on using this setting.

The setting "Slow" will transmit less data, but the phone will need to parse this data. This will help if your connection is very slow (slower than 3G) and the download itself takes very long.

There is also a History which stores that last 50 gamertags you used. The most recently used gamertags will always be on top. Because of that history, you will not have to save the gamertag anymore. Instead, the gamertag will be saved automatically as soon as you navigate away from the settings page.

Please note that gamertags will only be added to the history when you download stats for them from either the main page ("reload") or the settings page ("Test Gamertag").

As always, feature requests are welcome, but since the time I have for this app is very limited, I cannot guarantee anything.

EDIT: Also it might take some time for the update to roll out to all users. If you download (or already have) version 1.3 you should see that an update is available on the Marketplace Live Tile within the next 24 hours.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] slimshady322:
If you want to beta test the upcoming Mango version, you can register your interest on Windows Phone Beta

This version has mostly only adjustments to make it work better on Windows Phone 7.5.

Most notably, 1.5 features Fast-App-Switching Support.

Furthermore, you can now pin gamertags to the start screen. These Tiles are not yet Live Tiles (meaning they won't update in the background), but if I get enough data from testers I might be able to implement Live Tiles in a future version.

However, most likely Live Tiles will only work for users with fast data connections (like 3G+, "4G" on the Radar or LTE in the future). I will allow users on all devices to enable Live Tiles, but for users with slower connections they will most likely not work as expected.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] slimshady322:
Hello,

as some of you might now, after March 31st, Bungie will no longer have access to new stats from Halo: Reach. New stats will only be available on Halo Waypoint (by 343 Industries) and some features will not be continued.

Unfortunatly, one of those scrapped features is the API I use to get all the data for the app.

That means that after March 31st, 2012, the data the app can access will not be updated anymore.

While the API will remain functional for some time and you will be able to continue to use the app, it will be way less useful without recent stats.

Furthermore, my time is limited and I worked on this as a hobby and to improve my programming skills.

I have contiuend development of this app a little bit and I still have a couple of unreleased but more or less working features:

- Mango support

- Pinning a gamertag to the start screen

I will probably release this along with some information about the API shutdown before March 31st as a final update.

While there are of course ways to adapt the app to those changes and to access the data on Halo Waypoint, it would take too much time for me and as such I have no other choice but to discontinue this app.

TL;DR summary:

On March 31st, everything the app can download will become static (no new data).

It will continue to work for some time after March 31st, but without live or recent data.

I will release one final update with a couple of new features but mostly to inform users about this.

I would also like to thank all Beta testers and the 4,000+ users of my app.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] slimshady322:
Version 1.5 has now been released and will be available to download within a couple of hours.

This update does not fix the issue where the stats do not update anymore. The last update of the stats was March 31st 2012 and there is nothing I can do to change that (read the previous post).

However, this update does bring some new features:

- option to pin gamertags to the homescreen for quick access

- Fast-App-Switching Support

- option to share files on your social networks.

And finally there is also a notice to inform users that this app does not update anymore that it will stop working completely at some point.

Challenges do not seem to be affected (so these are still the current challenges), but the player's progress is not available anymore.

Anyway, thanks to more than 4000 users and over 100 reviews.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dbdynsty25:
Not sure anyone has posted this yet, but a quick search returned no results.

The USB Adapter is now available from Samsung for $20. A little expensive, but likely necessary.

**It won't let me link to the actual product because of my "newness" but if you click on over to phandroid dot com they've got the link directly to Samsung**

I'll update once I break 8 posts, lol.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] anilkuj:
where do u see i went to the samsung site and still says out of stock for me
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] songmeesay:
It's been up along with other accessories for almost a week now but when you go to actually order the status is "back order".

I believe they posted this in the 10.1 accessories forum.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dbdynsty25:
Fair enough...accessory link fail on my part. I'll go back into the shadows again. :(
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] tigerminx:
I wonder if this will be compatible with the 10.1v when we finally get the 3.1 update? No reason why it shouldn't?
[HTC ChaCha] raikesy:
Hi All,

As I've previously mentioned in the first impressions thread we have a persistent issue with our ChaCha that has been present on the two devices we have had and has not been fixed by the 1.18 update.

After pressing the SYM key to bring up the symbols\smilies whatever symbol that is highlighted blue persists on the screen after selected. This can usually be cleared away by tapping around the screen or exiting the SMS\Talk app but occasionally it persists, needing a reboot to clear.

Has anyone else seen this? I initially thought it was an issue with the first device alone, but now it is happening with the second device, and after the update, surely others must be seeing this also?
[HTC ChaCha] raikesy:
No one?
[HTC ChaCha] iDAREK:
in my chacha everything work normal, no issue.
[HTC ChaCha] inny2:
My chacha takes me to the very first SMS of a contact frequently while typing a reply.

Very frustrating if you have to go all the way down among 300+ SMS in a conversation. But going to home screen and then back to the SMS is ok since the message its saved as draft either way.

This happens almost every time i want to reply to someone.
[HTC ChaCha] raikesy:
Gave up in the end. Issue kept occurring, also had a problem with the camera not starting and needing a reboot. Carphone warehouse were really good about it so swapped for a desire s.

Hope no-one else has issues as its a great phone without the bugs!
[HTC ChaCha] webvictim:
I've had the symbol box stick on screen once so far (had the phone 3 days) but it went away pretty quickly afterwards. Certainly doesn't seem to be anything I'd be too worried about.
[HTC ChaCha] raikesy:
The trouble we had was that every once in a while it wouldn't disappear, reboot would be needed.this started happening more frequently. This, along with the

Camera force closing and then not working until a reboot, made it feel like a flawed device. Shame as we loved the design, look and feel of the phone.
[HTC ChaCha] trinityb4:
no problem with my set so far.

sw #: 1.21.707.2
[HTC ChaCha] cocaice2009:
I believe it's a bug, no issues after changing to use Handcent SMS...
[HTC ChaCha] knowsnophones:
Is this issue present in all or common in Chaha phones?
[HTC ChaCha] knowsnophones:
So I'm guessing this SMS jumping to the top problem is isolated or rare by the lack of replies.. Right? That's a good news! Right?:confused::D
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AkaZero:
Signed up for XDA because I got problems, and you guys seems to know everything when I need to use my googl-fu to solve a problem.

Have lurked for hours trying to figure this out. Nothing solves it.

Phone specs: Phone is babied, never dropped etc. Evo 4g on sprint, rooted unrevoked3 method, was running CM7 nightly95.

Have been running this for several days no issue, (since nightly95 came out.)

Was running a CM7 stable build before this. No issues.

And then the problem: Was just using my phone like normal at work it decided it wanted to reboot on me, once, restarts fine, and about an hour later reboots into a boot loop. It was on a charge cable to wall outlet, not pc when this happened, if that matters.

From the boot loop, just starts, vibrates, shows the htc evo screen maybe 10 seconds and reboots.

I can get into Hboot, (power + vol down) but can not get into recovery. if it's selected the boot looping starts again.

I have tried clearing storage, and flashing a couple PC36IMG.ZIP Since it seems to fix other peoples. Since the most I can figure out is putting the SD card into the computer and try loading files from Hboot.

Last one being this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=791019

Still boot looping, no recovery.

Any help is appreciated. But I am noob when it comes to command line adb stuff. Just so you know.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emcp422:
what PC36IMG are you trying to flash exactly?

try this one, its amon ra 2.3, its the one i have as a backup in case mine foks up, just take amonra out of the name so its only

PC36IMG.zip, then put in the root of your sd card, turn on phone while pressing volume down, to go into bootloader let the phone recognize it and select yes when asked to update, if thats gets your recovery up try wiping and restoring a backup
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
If all else fails, try the attached doc.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dougjamal:
First, boot into the bootloader, look at the top of the screen and see if it still displays "S-OFF". If it does not, you need to re-root your device. If it displays "S-ON" then If you have a card reader, connect it to your PC or Mac and copy the contents of the SD card to your computer. Afterwards, re-format the card. Now copy a freshly downloaded rom and a freshly downloaded copy of the PC36IMG.zip file for amon-RA recovery version 2.3 to the root of your SD card (not in any folder). Re-insert the card in your EVO and boot to the bootloader. The PC36IMG.zip file *should* be automatically detected and you *should* be prompted to install it. Follow the prompts to install. Installation will take approximately 10 seconds. Afterwards, boot into your new recovery. Go to the wipe menu and wipe EVERYTHING in it EXCEPT the SD card. After that, flash the rom. Be patient during the initial boot process. You *should* be good to go afterwards.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AkaZero:
Tried this a bit ago.

Now it doesn't loop. But it's not any better.

It just boots, htc evo for a few seconds, and then vibrates approx 5 times and screen goes black and the top led flashes green.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Anybody else think this sounds like the bootloop of death? If so, there's no known fix. You can run the PC36IMG, but if that's what it is, you'll never get recovery or any rom to boot up.

I hope I'm wrong, though.

(from... Evo/MIUI/Tapatalk)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ar4senal:
this sounds just like what happened to my phone. After spending hours on the forums and PM'ing back with a few people, I diagnosed it as the bootloop of death. Which sounds like exactly your going through....

no fix unfortunately...if your s on you can go back to sprint and get a brand new one. If not (like me) smash it pay the $100 deductible and get a refurb. Sucks I know.

For a more in depth thread search "boot loop + no recovery".
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
If I understand correctly, it's a problem with a partition size and was common with a certain Hardware version (0002?)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
The good ole bootloop of death, that I fear so deeply. I hope this never happens to me. I'm sorry for your luck, but it sounds like plainjane is right. I agree, you got the bootloop of death, and most likely won't recover from it. Do you you have insurance ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
My fear, too. Every time I boot up in the morning, I hold my breath a little til the Evo screen goes off and the boot.ani starts...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AkaZero:
Well, After HipKat first suggestion I can get to s-on. I may try it again with a different RUU but I think it's dead too.

So, since it will be S-on, hopefully there is a new phone in my future, without any money out of pocket.

Thanks for the help guys. I'll let you know if anything fixes it, or what sprint says.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottspa74:
From what I remember reading about a month ago, when this seemed to be happening a lot, was that it was random.

Didn't start when you were trying to boot up, just suddenly, randomly, terrifyingly, and like death in the night....power off, and never to fully boot again. Just typing about it now kinda scares me like a hex. I hope to finish typing this sentance.

@ OP, really sorry about your luck, man. We all feel you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fergie716:
Thats crazy, the same exact thing happened to my brother running CM7 lke a month a go.. is this limited to just AOSP ROMs? I know there's always the potential of bricking your phone flashing, but from what I've been reading it seems its happening to lots of people on AOSP ROMs
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HipKat:
No, it's not limited to AOSP ROMs, but it does seem that most of the cases were people running CM7 and/or Clockwork Mod. I know there was an argument that it's just that there are so many people running CM that it just seems like CM was the culprit, but it was odd to me, anyhow, how overwhelmingly I saw that it was happening to people running that mod
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fergie716:
Yea I was reading this happened a few days ago to a guy who was on Decks 2.3.4.. IDK I told my brother to just flash a radio and pull the battery while flashing to try and get a replacement.. But the whole thing freaked me out lol.. Feel bad cuz it could happen to anyone I suppose
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ar4senal:
Your lucky to get S-ON, I only read about one other person able to get S ON after bootlooping.....take it to the Sprint Store, they should give you a new one on the spot if they have stock, if not they order one overnight. Could have been way worse...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AkaZero:
Right now it says s-off again. But acts likes it's on, can't erase anything through fastboot/adb.

Going to try to repeat the RUU install a few times to see if I can get it back to s-on then take it in.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thanamesjames:
I was one of the first 3 or so people to report about this on the forum - it happened to me over 4 months ago. Anyways, if you flash a PC36IMG-eng and pull the battery at exactly the right time, while the radio is updating your phone will completely brick - it won't even turn on. Then you can take your phone in and just tell sprint it wont turn on. Note, it took me over 20 battery pulls before it finally wouldn't turn on, but its your best option if you can't get S-ON.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spencer88:

Has anyone upgraded via Wirefly and used the "Keep My Plan" option?

I'm thinking of using it but I'm wondering if this actually does keep your plan, since I'm on a grandfathered myFaves T-Mobile G1 plan with a AAA 15% discount, neither of which are offered anymore.

It says "keep my plan" but I'm skeptical because you HAVE to choose a new data plan and a new texting plan.

​

And here's the checkout screen which says you keep all plan details... So... What the heck??

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Wondering if anyone else got a successful stream on the Thunderbolt.

It's been an incredibly frustrating experience the last two hours with my Thunderbolt.

Thought I'd watch the live stream of the lunar eclipse on the phone. Pulled out my Droid Charge, went to the Huffington Post, clicked their YouTube link, hit full screen and started getting a gorgeous SAMOLED+ view of the event in real time.

Then I thought I'd compare the visual quality of the stream on the Charge against the Thunderbolt. Followed the same steps as I had with the Charge. Stream wouldn't load... just kept getting the spinning gear indicating buffering. Tried with both stock browser (BAMF) and Dolphin HD. Tried different user agents. Downloaded update to flash player. Same thing. Tried different websites, different streams; same thing.

Went to YouTube, live stream not available to mobile devices. Aaaarrggghhh.

Thought maybe the steam was overloaded, so pulled out my Nexus S to see if it could connect. Stock browser got the live stream right away.

Spent an hour screwing around with the Thunderbolt trying to get it to work. Never could. Very frustrating.

This is why I carry multiple devices. :rolleyes:

In the end I turned on mobile hotspot on the Thunderbolt and tethered my MacBook to it and have it on the 15" screen. Better looking than the phone anyways.

Hotspot has been very flakey fire me on the Thunderbolt lately, so it's a pleasant surprise to have had it be stable today. It's been no interruption for an hour now; much different than the disconnects every 10 seconds or so I posted about the other day.

I'm going to have to figure out why of three phones, the TB is the only one that wasn't up to the task.

Any ideas?
