Sorry for the trouble you're having in the UK. In the US, it is AMAZING. Point it at a book or DVD cover, and within 3 seconds it gives you a link to find the product. Same with bar codes.

Simply go to settings -> region and language -> scroll all the way down to "Browser and search language" (don't know if it's really called that way, I'm just translating it from German). Change it to "English (USA)" and you're all set for Local Scout and full Bing Vision. ;)

All this chatter about Mango being release today. My HD2 has Yuki’s back to the future rom with mango. Do I still need to update my hd2 when the mango rollout notifies my zune?

What is the difference between the build being release today vs the leaked RTM 7720 and yuki’s back to the future rom?

Will I gain anything new that I don’t already have?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dxdy:
today version is final official version of Mango, all other before this is test, beta or releases for manufactures...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] whistler-nl:
He knows that his current version is the RTM, which is by the way something totally different from a test or beta version!

The question asked is what the DIFFERENCE between the official and RTM version is.

As far as i understand the difference is in the drivers that are present in the version released today by MS. But then again it is just what i have read somewhere.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Wanchope2k:
When I connected my phone to Zune it said the update would "clean up any beta/ivs provisioning to ensure your phone can recieve future updates"..

Quite a few people in the "back to the future" thread seem to have installed the update without problems.

I assume that if you update from the Yuk/HD2Oi "beta" to "official" Mango you wont gain anything functional, it will just change some versions/comments from "beta" to "official" so it shows as an offical release rather than a beta release.

For info, I've just installed this update (took less than a minute) and all is working fine still.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] RD274:
Waiting for more feedback and then only I'll switch.

If theres no real difference then I won't switch at all. Its too much of a mess to setup up my tiles and get my apps up and running again.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] lemonspeakers:
I agree. I'll wait on it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Amoah:
just completed the update process from "back to future" rom to the official mango. i see no difference between the two other than perhaps removing elements of beta according to the update. there was no change in my tile presentation and i had no app installed as i was experience huge battery drain for no reason.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] manmute98:
I have the HD2 and also received the update message requesting for update would would "clean up any beta/ivs version.

So for any of you who installed can you give us up dates with your hd2,

Q1, if previous side loaded apps are still on the phone & usable?

Q2, Is it still unlocked? &

Q3, can we use Tom Xap installer?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Amoah:
yes it's still unlocked.

Yes, you can sideload apps using your tomxap installer, I just installed fruit ninja.

As to previous sideloaded apps I can't answer cos i did the upgrade without any installed up.

I just upgrade my phone to mango.

I checked and it did not affect my apps or tiles.

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] JonnieLasVegas:
Yeah, I installed it too. Just like installing it as a native WP. It won't mess up any apps, pix, or saved documents. Took less than 5 minutes & actually made my very smooth phone, smoother!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] backlashsid:
how exactly smoother ??
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] smuppy:
From what I've read so far it seems safe to install this update. We dont have any "official" statement from Yuki or DF or anyone actually involved in the ROM here do we?

And also, will I need to reconfigure the phone after applying this update? If so, then this update is not gonna happen for me.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Amoah:
Smuppy,

I don't think you'll configure anything. After the upgrade my tiles,ringtone and wifi address were still in order.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] smuppy:
Okie, thanks, will try the update :)

[Edit]

Hmm, it wont install. Errorcode 800B010A. Checking the ROM-thread for a solution.

[Edit 2]

Ok, it installed after a few tries. Rebooted computer and phone as well, but dont think that has anything to do with it.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] manmute98:
Thanks now i think i can go ahead and do the update and hope it doesn't affect mu dual boot setup either.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] radiance26:
Yes, with this update you will have latest drivers, so a better battery consumption than 7720 leaked before.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] jhsiao36:
For me, the biggest improvement using the latest, official Mango update is battery life.

Unplugged at 10 AM, now 11 hours later (with light IE and phone use, and 3 gmail, 1 MS live, and 1 twitter accounts all pushing data, but no BT or Wifi), i have 60% battery (approx. 8 hours) left.

Before, i was lucky to get 10 hours use total.

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] enigma1nz:
I just checked. I got the same numbers for the one I did in one shot install from here. I assumed we are talking about the official release that is somehow different. If not - why would I bother updating through Zune?

---------- Post added at 01:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 AM ----------

Why go through all that hassle if it's the same thing I already have? The version numbers are the same and I am told I am already updated. My thoughts are that the page you are referencing refers to phones running WP7 natively and their owners not willing to wait for Mango arriving to their location.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Robbie P:
You have a valid point, thus the reason for this thread. There may be some performance benefits, manufacturers' feedback will have been implemented. But if you are happy as is then fine:). We are now running WP7 and will come across the same problems as native phones. The link says zune updates are rolling out over a few days, this means us too, for the impatient amongst us the linked method seems to work.

It may also work for updating from 7004 to 7392 etc, but have not had feedback yet.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mister Locke:
I recently forced the updates to get to Mango using the http://www.wpcentral.com/force-mango-update-early-through-zune-software method. I'm on step 8 of 10 on the Mango installation and it appears to have frozen. The small gray bar appears to be at 100 percent but it still depicts the do not disconnect from computer screen. I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem and what I should do. Thanks.

It's possible it just froze and a restart would work.

EDIT: Well I waited for the little gray status bar to get as far as it will go. ie: let it sit there for an hour or two to make sure everything was set. The Zune software said something about a failed update or whatever so I disconnected it. Anyways took two restarts and bam I have Mango working perfectly fine on my phone. Sat a little while on the new Windows Phone logo page.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oelapoel:
this is just from my experience.

I did have freeze the first time I updated to mango beta few weeks back on part where I had to restarted the phone. I disconnected the usb, and seemed everything was good.

but I connected the phone again, try to look for new update, and zune gave me error. the only way I fixed is by restoring to previous NODO build.

the 2 things I would make sure I have before doing any updates for wp7:

1. battery power is > 50%

2. I would make sure that screen time out is set to NEVER

since then, I never had issue with updates

I hope this helps :)

Hi mates..

Can anyone please tell how t configure Hotspot Shield? My problem is that Market is blocked in my country and the only way to access it is by changing my IP..

I tried adding VPN in the settings/wireless and networks menu but it doesn't work..

I also tried VPN Connections 0.99 app but it FCs when I try to connect..

I think it requires a custom kernel but I hope somone knows how to use it in stock ROM/kernel..

Any help is highly appreciated..

use ssh tunneling!

Hi pal,

Sorry but I know nothing about Hotspot Shield neither would I trust anyone to secure my data on my behalf when I can do it myself, especially if american!

Maybe this could help you, not only Androidwise: you could use it for all your web activities :) (BTW what's your country?)

You can use "SSH Tunnel Beta" from the market.

As you cannot access it I am posting the apk.

Or you could search SSHTunnel(BETA) v1.6.0beta.apk on google and you might find it.

Works like a charm, I use it to encrypt and to change my IP, whatismyip.org correctly reports the IP of the ssh server.

You need an ssh server to act as a proxy obviously.

(alternative is an proxy but firemole is not available on android)

All you need is a linux box in a datacenter.

Provider gives you root and password that you should change to something super secure, adduser name, disable root logins (/etc/ssh/sshd_config) and a few more things to be secure or if you like to risk.. just use the provided root:password on your ssh tunnel app ;)

I hire from www.leaseweb.com which is in NL or DE, you can get a VPS linux from many providers and they cost under 10 euro / month or get superb dedicated servers like I do if you have a use for them ;). Bandwidth is great but depends from the network in you country and also on the backbones used but you hardly care about this ;) others are www.lowendbox.com and www.vps4you.it that offer 30 day trial

Hope this helps and doesn't just confuse you... But if you live in a country where things are banned I guess this would upgrade your web freedom :)

Now lets get back to work :)

G

PS you could also use it on your wireless router (get a www.dd-wrt.com / opnwrt / pfsense capable router) and you're done house/firm-wide :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nabbed:
I just got this as a test.

starting 98%

ending 30%

time on 14 hours

display on 3:43h

Special conditions:

1) two hours of watching youtube with lowest screen brightness (lower energy consumption)

2) two hours with wifi on (but not connected) and very poor signal (higher energy consumption).

I think one should be able to get 5-6 hours of continuous use (unless it's 3d games.)

Wifi is normally on and connected, signal is usually 3-4 bars. Autobrightness on.

[HTC EVO 3D] lchupacabras:
If you haven't already try doing a clean install of whatever ROM you decide to stick with. Then, try running the updates before any titanium backups or anything like that. Also, are you on HBOOT 1.5,4, or 3? Are you using Rev's method of root or HTC's? If HTC make sure you're using the fast boot method when flashing the ROMs as to have a matching kernel along with them. Hope something here helps.
