If you have Windows 7 on 32 bits you can update via Kies.I updated my phone without any problems when I was using stock ROM.I now just use it for backup.

The link will be live in a few hours for us but here is the official announcement

http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_live/b/windowslive/

Gee I wonder what other apps will be going to iOS too? :rolleyes:
[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
I don't know why there's an app since the built in functionality is already really good.
[Windows Phone 7 General] BigBlue007:
After you've read the blog entry you will (or "should") understand. :)

If you don't, then you don't need the app.
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
This app nicely proves my point I made long time ago....

Anyway nice thing and probably very functional.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Yea. I know what my next phone will be. They're making it way too easy to make that choice...
[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
don't know what the big deal about this is either. At least they aren't saying "if u want our services buy our devices " like google is (still no google apps on wp7) and there are many wp7 users who want this, there are also people on android who want easier access to hotmail or windows live messenger and there's nothing wrong with that.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sayonical:
Hopfully you make that decision very soon and post on that forum :)

In order for skydrive to be successful it has to be multi-platform. Dropbox is where it is today becuase of the widespread support and api for it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
the link wasn't viewable when I made that post but I understand it now and will be downloading it. Seems great.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
Ironically the app is already available on iOS but not yet on WP :rolleyes:

[Windows Phone 7 General] jhoff80:
I'm betting that with Skydrive seeming to be a big part of Windows 8, that Microsoft really doesn't care what device you use, as long as they can get your foot in the door with Skydrive.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Will it make you less emo? I hope so :-)

Microsoft is late as always. Dropbox and box.net have already given iOS and android users 5-50 gb of storage which isn't tied to a Windows live id. Their apps were out a long time ago.

Microsoft needs to push its platform. WP7 can and will push their services by proxy. XB360 as well, to a lesser extent.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JVH3:
This is pretty sweet. Being both a user of Windows Phone 7 and the iPhone at the same time, it will make it very easy for me to access the photos I've taken with my Windows Phone 7 from my iPhone.

I doubt Apple will be so open with their iCloud?

This is also great for Windows Phone 7 users to be able to share docs with co workers that are using an iPhone.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
iCloud and SkyDrive are not the same type of product. It was developed as a storage solution primarily for Mac/iOS users and apps, and not necessarily to be general purpose like SkyDrive and Dropbox. Box.net gave 50gb storage to ios users so most probably took that offer and ran with it. I know I did.

I mean you can't really go in there and browse it like the hard drive the way you can those other products.
[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
^^^^This article is about the availability of the SkyDrive app, not about the "superiority" of dropbox and box.net.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Who said they were superior? I was responding to another comment.
[Windows Phone 7 General] contable:
I have tested both versions: WP7 and iOS.

The WP7 version is a bad joke:

- I can´t upload or watch videos (possible on iPhone)

- I can´t open word documents or pdf files (download error and offer to try it in the browser ?)

- Only upload of pictures is possible

Edit:

- not even my in the office hub created notes I can open

What I like is that I can delete files or folders and that I can see all shared folders of my friends on one page.

I hope the app will be updated soon...

I don´t understand either why MS allows better skydrive support for iOS than for WP.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
Hm.. Not true.

1) I can open and stream videos and music. Pay attention that the codecs you used are supported by WP7.

2) I can open PDF, Excel, Word... No issues here.

The only thing I currently don't know about is the possibility of uploading videos. I just haven't tried it yet. But I believe it's possible as long as they are still in the appropriate section of the pictures hub rather than in the Zune hub.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
You were responding to a comment that you baited with your initial post.

Anyway, great to see this app.
[Windows Phone 7 General] contable:
That´s strange. Some files I can open other I can´t.

Make a video with the camera of your device, upload the video to skydrive and try to stream it through the app...
[Windows Phone 7 General] leftspeaker2000:
I could not seem to open a office or one note document either, it simply said "can't open" and asked if i would like to open it with my web browser. Pictures on the other hand opened fine.

Although WP7 is integrated relatively well with Skydrive a dedicated app such as this gives a less hassle free way of managing Skydrive files as opposed to logging into the mobile site. As for Microsoft making the app available for other platforms i think it is a great idea as it creates awareness of Microsoft products and services which can potential lead to a transition to WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] opti7:
Same here :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Ok.....

How do I sort files on the phone. All of my stuff shows up in the personal unfiled section.

Why must it open IE before opening the document?
[Windows Phone 7 General] contable:
I fixed the problem by re-uploading the files which I couldn´t open.

Another solution is to save documents strictly in the skydrive documents folder.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ROCOAFZ:
The only thing i can't figure out is why the hell there is no move file to folder option? i have to go the website to do this. What good is creating folders if you can't move the files? Can the IOS version do this?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tiven:
about time :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] jmerrey:
The opening of IE before it opens a document is awful, and quite sloppy considering it's a MS app, not a third party app.
[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
Its better anyway to open office files,pictures and videos directly from their respective hubs. Doesn't really make sense to complain about the app not being able to do it since it was just created to organize and share the files with others.
[Windows Phone 7 General] voluptuary:
yeah, unless you are on iOS you really just need to learn how to use your phone before moaning about something that is a result of user ignorance.
[Windows Phone 7 General] XxAndrexX:
when I tap on the + symbol, to add something, nothing happens... i wanted to add some music or something like that, but no way. and since we can't add, I don't really see some difference from the integrated app... ok it seems that now we can move or delete files, but nothing more...
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
When you click the + symbol it should launch the photo chooser and allow you to upload images. You can't do much else because... there isn't really a file system that we have access to.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
I think that's a bigger issue than what the app allows, personally.

Wonder if they'll make an Android version.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Dinchy87:
yeah but, if you can access the pictures and not your videos, that's is not good... what is the difference between access to pictures and videos on our WP7? none!

Some of us paid so much for a wp7 phone to get really good apps that function, and if its true that you can post videos from iOS, and not from wp7. that is not good for the reputation of windows phone...
[Windows Phone 7 General] sayonical:
If you want to upload your video to SkyDrive just use the built in option. It will upload to your mobile folder on SkyDrive though.

[Windows Phone 7 General] wp7thoze:
But there isn't an option to upload my videos to SkyDrive...

I only have the options to pin the video to my start page or to delete it
[Windows Phone 7 General] vasileios13:
Good app..................:D
[Windows Phone 7 General] dragonide:
Won't happen :B
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
Fact of the matter is, the API doesn't support it. There is no "video" chooser but there is a "picture" chooser.
[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
I've uploaded several videos to SkyDrive ever since the mango beta. U go to the camera then to the video u want to upload, hit share and select SkyDrive. Make sure the video is recorded in 480p tho because for some reason the 720p videos do not yet show up in SkyDrive on the phone (probably to reduce data use)
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
You cannot send video off a WP7 device that way. You never could. It's been something many people have been asking for since day 1. You cannot even send video in an MMS.
[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
its amazing how some people always find a reason to downplay WP7. First it was no copy/paste then for no tethering,now it's for no video MMS. Wonder what the next one will be? This thread isn't even about that.

U can goto the video in SkyDrive and get a link to it and then send that. Most people are all getting smartphones so they should be able to see it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] N8ter:
Umm guy. Are you new here? The lack of ways to send video off the device outside of uploading o social networks is an OLD issue.

Can o introduce you to search?

[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
Haven't you already recognized him? It's eric. Mr. Annoyance himself.

Honestly, even though I never sent any video mms, it's definitely crap having to have a recorded video in the pictures hub (instead of the zune hub), upload it to skydrive from there, then start the skydrive app and send a link to the according file. That's just plain and utter bull****.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
WTF....seriously are those the steps I must take to send a simple video to someone?

[Windows Phone 7 General] prohibido_por_la_ley:
I know about it, and I also know that people like to nitpick things about wp7. Anywho tango is just about a month and a half away at the most.

they show up in the Zune hub too but u can only play them.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Mango will be here next year, it'll solve all this. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Tango, you mean?

And why is everybody wowed by this app? It would be great if they release an app for Windows so we could use it like Dropbox. Or better. I can't imagine who use 25GB storage with documents.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
Take a look at this. I highly recommend the advanced version, even though you have to pay for it. Been using it for a couple of weeks now and I don't wanna miss it anymore.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sayonical:
Or you could just map skydrive as a network drive in windows 7 and use it like another (albeit slower) harddrive

http://www.groovypost.com/howto/mic...etwork-drive-live-skydrive-using-office-2010/
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
I tried that, but for some reason only my documents folder can be mapped. Using the tool I linked to integrates every single folder.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ohgood:
Mango, tango, durango, whatever. I believe it was a jab at the old promise of "update durango is only 6 months away and will fix everything" - but then it doesn't.

Since microsoft likes ending their mobile os names with long O sounds, why not make the next one "TomorrOOOOOO" ?
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
I have tried this once. Think it's too slow..

Dropbox is smooth. Love it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] dkp1977:
Yeah, it's slow. A buddy told me to go and try Gladinet Desktop Cloud, which I did a few minutes ago. And I gotta say: even the free edition rocks. It's really great and worth a try.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mikeeam:
Wow.. really liked this one! Trying it. Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Dragon Queen:
Try resetting the office hub, I had the same problem couldn't open anything from skydrive on my phone. Afterwards everything is open sesame, not a problem since.
[Windows Phone 7 General] sayonical:
remove the ^Documents from the mapping adress and it will map the from root of skydrive instead.
[Windows Phone 7 General] RoboDad:
I've been using Gladinet for almost a year, and it as practically flawless. It's the best PC solution available IMO.

so can any body help me on doing a hard restore as ive tried holding the left and right buttons whilst pressing the power button but no luck...

i need to get in to the phone so i can use it as mine is now broken,

can

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Felimenta97:
Why you can't ask him? At least ask him to put the password and then you deactivate the security lock.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Tubby-mummy:
If you re read my original post you will see that i had said he has passed away..

So asking him is a impossible thing to do :(
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Felimenta97:
Oh, really sorry. Really, really sorry, I didn't get at first. Sometimes my english is awful. Do you know if he had recovery installed? Try to reboot in recovery and do a backup in case you want to keep any app or it's configs.. Then enter factory reset, reboot phone. Everything right, install App Extractor and recover the apps you want from the recovery.

In case he hadn't any recovery, I think the only option is reinstall Android, using SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service).

Again, sorry for the thing I said in my earlier post.

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Tubby-mummy:
I dont know what he had on the phone, ive got his sd card with all his pics etc so not worried about losing anything,

ive connected the phone via usb to my notepad but when i click on the usb via my computer it says to insert a disk to disk drive??

i honestly have no idea what to do, ive tried to download the sony ericsson pc suite but where i use a internet dongle it dont download...

i dont want to pay for the phone to b reset when i know i can do it myself some how and places round here have said they'd charge £50-£60 just to do it!!!!

Unfortunately that won't get photos, and other media off the internal sdcard.

Just format your system and flash a stock rom, this ensure nothing is left on it ;). Than format your sd card if youre going to be including that when you sell it.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mchu6am4:
Hi,

Sorry if its a rather simple question but can someone please either explain or point me in the right direction on the different terms used on Android phones especially when it comes to custom roms, kernels, firmware etc

What do these terms mean, what do they do and what can be updated individually or what comes part of other software/firmware/ROM etc..

Also which terms are used interchangeably but mean the same...

Apologies for asking this simple question and thanks in advance as I'm confused to what exactly i can update, in what order etc! BTW I'm using an old miui build and i thought i was running an old siya kernel? I still want to stick with miui ROM....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
basical the following is:

baseband = modem is the radio that allows you to make calls.

kernal = firmware which contains the apps and other controls.

build = Rom is firmware, modem, bootloader all under one file.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Kernel the very base of the OS communicates between cpu etc and OS .Same as Linux or Windows kernel

Firmware usually a full package includes apps kernel modem OS and csc .

Modems are interchangeable for most country's

Kernels are interchangeable .

[Motorola Droid RAZR] pswin09:
Fastboot can flash the fastboot file through rsdlite. That mean you can recover from boot loop or can flash if you want other locales moto roms(like en.EU rom in development forum).

For factory resetting, you can do two way(from recovery or from phone setting/privacy/factory reset).

To go to stock recovery, power-off your phone..then press power button+ volume up+ volume down at the same time. You will see recovery with other menu.Scroll down to recovery by using volume down button. Use power button for selecting. Good luck....

ok ... now i understand the fastboot and recovery

but where i can get the rsdlite

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwong96:
