In my professional field many websites are flash based. I can't access them at all on WP7. So you mean it's good I can't see them, right? Maybe you think I should be happy of it?

Those two OSes died because they could't cope with UI and the attractiveness of iPhone, not because they were open. How xda member can post such silly thing. WP7 is locked because of the strategy they have right now. Not because it's ultimately better.

This 3 things are sync with WP7. The only problem (until mango, always mango :) ) is you can sync only the default calendar of your account. What type of account is it ? (Exchange, Google Mail, other... ??)

My apologies Dom,

I didnt mean for you to take offence at what i said, was just trying to be friendly. possible difference in culture/sense of humour, anyway I'm not looking to argue with you, your far too hungry for me lol

Like i said in my first post, the OP should try them both for an extended period if poss. Seems like everyone has an opinion on which is better (specially some, wink) so making ones own would be the best bet. (c'mon now thats friendly isnt it)

My Kindest Regards,

dude, he clearly just doesn't like WP7 and that's the end of it.

doministry, tell this guy!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OperaHawk:
I appreciate everything that has been said:

- wp7 is lacking in many areas now, but Mango will bring it to a more fluid experience that should surpass Android and compete strongly with iOS.

- Android is more customize-friendly (similar to WM6.5) but tends to be buggy.

It's a matter of opinion, I get that.

In MY opinion, I will put away my 2 Tilts (both with custom ROMS) and go for WP7.

But my question is: do I do it now, or wait for new phones to come out? As an AT&T user (yeah, I know...) the Focus is the best wp7 phone they have, and I like it. A lot. But I'm wondering if some of what's been rumored to hit the stores (especially the HTC 'Eternity' with the 5" screen... drool...) will be worth the wait?

Then add on to that I can get the Focus for FREE with the 2-year activation.

Decisions, decisions...

Now that makes sense. A good point and definitely something to keep in mind.

Like using linux helped sony :p
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jason1175:
That is a tough one. The mobile market is moving so quickly it seems that you will always be playing catch-up. As i see it now, my phone(HTC Trophy) runs the OS very well and will be getting the Mango update so, technically, it shouldn't be much different than anything arriving this year. Where I see the current phones lacking as far as performance is in the camera. It's average at best.

With the new API's coming out there may eventually be a need for dual core procs and greater memory capacity but I don't know enough to say.

My advice would be don't jump into something that you will regret. If a large screen and great camera are something that you really want then wait. A couple of months is nothing compared to 2 years ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OperaHawk:
For me, a larger screen would be very helpful - being a teacher, it would be easier to pull out my phone, get on YouTube and show students people singing their songs/arias, getting translations, etc., rather than having to have to lug my 17" laptop with me or spending money on a netbook which I don't really need OR buying a tablet (again, why get something that's basically a netbook) - all my opinion, your mileage may vary... ;p Now if someone found a way to tether a current wp7 phone to a larger screen like an Atrix, I'd be all over that. But I don't see that coming down the pike...

Thanks for the advice!

No offence here.

Yes the OP should just try it, and especially if he's just 14 (!)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doministry:
Lol man are you here, hello!!

If you have 4 accounts - POP3 and one Imap - NO, THEY DON'T SYNC everything with WP7. Pop3 accounts don't map sent items, calendars etc.

Sent items stay on Outlook and ONLY there unless it's Hotmail account. Only Outlook works OFFLINE. And Hotmail Calendar is a separate calendar in Outlook, it doesn't integrate with Outlook one.

So the most convinient thing is - while syncing in the cloud anyway - to have Outlook for backup and to store all the data I want WHICH syncs with the phone no matter which account I refersh.

..before coming to the HTC Mozart, I had a HTC HD2....
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robstunner:
happy with the switch? im excited to try out Wp7 again. I love the bragging rights with the SGS2 but in real world use, i tend to use... non of the "braggable" features other than the screen.... to date ive made one 1080p video, which is nice but unneeded. Photos arent that much better than the SGS1's 5mp, and i still feel they lag behind iPhone 4's

Here it is plain and simple, I've been in this game for 17 years now, remember the first mobile phones. Been using them from day one and this is where I have ended up and am very happy with my phone. I love to tweak and have even made my own windows mobile roms.

HTC HD2 with the choice of 5 operating systems including dual boot, I choose Windows Phone 7.

It just works and it surprises me how well sometimes :-D

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryude:
But it's not free, and the marketplace currently is almost impossible to find any apps even using the search.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wyn6:
Not sure if I'm reading you correctly. But, I can find apps just fine in the market. Helps if you know what you're searching for. But, generic terms like GPS work also.

However, I'll concede that the market could do with some categorization.

Have you tried WP7 app list? There's a website as well as an app in the marketplace. Pretty handy.

I'd link the app, but don't know how and gave up trying after 20 or seconds. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtboos:
Better search is coming with Mango. For now, searching once inside, say, the apps section of the marketplace works to at least keep you in that section.

[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
I am running rooted stock EE4.

I have seen problems with Bluetooth connections on the SamChg:

I pair my SamChg with my car's HFL system. The HFL works "mostly OK", although it seems like a lot more connections/pairings are being dropped than I have seen with other phones.

I then pair my SamChg with my Jawbone Icon HFL headset. It pairs and connects OK.

I then go back to my car's HFL. The SamChg reports that it is still connected to my Jawbone headset (even though the Jawbone headset is turned off and left at home).

The SamChg doesn't see or connect to my car's HFL.

Never saw a mess like this with other mobile phones.

Huh.

Hi!

Like a few others I've been experiencing sudden reboots during calls. It's been driving me mad. I'm running on CM7_RC0.

The good news is that I think I've pinpointed why/when the reboots occur. Whenever I have wifi or bluetooth running the phone restarts about a minute into the call. When these are shut off- no reboots. I'll be testing this more thoroughly during the day.

Maybe this helps someone with similar issues...

Hello,

Yesterday, my phone got hung (while installing firefox 5...). I reboot it, but got stuck at HTC logo...

I rebooted into CW recovery, did i a wipe data and then reboot.

And nothing: now the phone do not display anything (black screen), refuse to boot. There is not even any led lighting when I plug the phone.

I suspect the bootloaded got erased....

When I plug the phone in my computer, Windows detects QHSUSB_DLOAD device, but cannot install the driver. Won't it be a kind of JTAG device ?

Is there any chance to unbrick my phone ? What should I try ?

send it back to HTC, they'll repair it no worries (probably with the "bad" chip btw), then see how long it lasts! (mine lasted a day before it failed AGAIN, and i had to send it back in for repair, got it back today, lets see how long this one lasts!)

Backup (I don't need this, i use titanium backup, and it's always running in the bg)

Bluetooth stuff (almost never use, but will when I get the headset)

Gallery (always running in the background and you can view your pics right on the camera while this is frozen, so ... ).

Live Wallpaper Picker (get the f off my phone)

Magic Smoke Wallpapers (get off my phone)

Market (alright, you have a point...)

Market updater (doesn't this just update the apps?, the general consensus is that problems come with updates on APPs, although clearly, one can argue au contraire...)

Music (alright, touché)

Music Visualization wallpapers (No... I don´t need this..)

My Account, Settings, Settings Storage, spare parts (i don't go in there anymore after I got the phone all geared up)

Smartshare- what even is this?

SSH Tunnel- half of you probable don't know what this is...

SpareParts- ummmm... don't really ever go in this i forget what it is?

Titanium backup- it's backed up! why give it the chance to run in the background..?

Super Manager (I only use for when I look up root **** which is almost never anymore since I got everything where I want it. )

Talk (I don't want this, I use Skype...)

Video Player (fine, touché)

Voice Dialer (it doesn't ever match the numbers correctly, so clearly I can freeze)

VPN Services (What is this??)

I don´t base my life around this crap, I just want to make my phone as good as it can be with the longest battery life and the stock kernel and rom obviously can´t do it...
