[Nokia Lumia 900] OkNewMedia:
So far, I'm very disappointed in the Lumia 900, and WP7 as a whole.

Mango is definitely an improvement over 7.0, but it still doesn't hold a candle to Android for customization and development. I would take it over iPhone, just because it does offer quite a few improvements in user interface, and useability, IMHO.

I am going to continue working to learn the WP7, and figure out what benefits it actually has over Android.

Also, don't believe the hyp on the Smoked by Windows Phone. It's all a matter of how you have the phone set up. If you have the particular app on your Homescreen, then yes, it's faster than an Android that doesn't have it. However, as has already been proven in the incident in Santa Clara, CA. If you have your Android setup with Homescreen Widgets to do these tasks, then it can be just as fast, if not faster, than WP7. So, basically, the whole Smoked by Windows Phone, is nothing but a gimmick, that is set up to "game" the competition. The true test, would be a comparison of doing things with the phones straight out of the box, rather than having them already preset, and pretending like you can't do that with an Android.
[Nokia Lumia 900] twisticles:
You need to go away and research both WP and the Smoked campaign. If you really want the challenge out of the box, Android is gonna get SMOKED.

You draw attention to one of the challenges, in which both parties had made mods to the homescreen.

But lets take an Android and WP, straight out of the box and ask them to post to Facebook and Twitter simultaneously...I promise you, WP is gonna smoke the Android phone because that functionality is part of the core OS on a WP.

Or howabout, straight out of the box, we post a photo to facebook? AH yes, Android is going to get smoked there too, because that too is part of the core functionality. You see, with WP, there is no need to even download a facebook or twitter app to achieve either of these tasks. You'd still be searching Google Play for the app when the WP phone has already finished.

Same with the Bing search...there are no widgets or apps involved...you can just do it, straight out of the box.

Makes me wish that MS didn't use the Weather Live Tiles (although Live Tiles are native, not a downloaded widget).

But the guy still had to disable his lock screen (not exactly "out of the box" eh?) to win the competition :p

But for all those 900 owners...

How is the battery life?
[Nokia Lumia 900] EShy:
I thought that was a mistake by the salesperson. The weather task is good when competing with the iphone, which still has a static icon. I remember when I switched from an iphone to android it was one of the major differences.

posting a status to twitter is the same. posting a picture to facebook gives windows phone a big advantage on ios/android.

you can't compare out of the box performance on these tasks, my phone will only be in that state for a short time, if I do something all the time, I will optimize my phone for that.

So yes, windows phone makes some of the tasks in that challenge a lot easier but that's not what I show people who want to see my windows phone.

I usually show them the people hub and group tiles and how I can see all the facebook and twitter updates right there without opening different apps.

It seems that many people wanted to lose so they can get a new windows phone, and combined with this incident, it led to MS scrapping the in store challenges in favor of a recycle offer for old phones

btw, Android's widgets are very similar to the live tiles, but my Android's battery would die if I had too many 'live' widgets (that get data from the network) and the phone would slow down after a few hours. I had to reboot the phone almost every day. My Lumia 800 rarely gets restarted

Restore problems!

First of all this is a great game.

Unfortunately I have a big problem with it...

I could not restore the game saved in any way. I have tried many ways from manual backup through different backup apps, even extracting from Nandroid as well. Some other gamers noticed the same issue as well.

I someone could help, I would much appreciate it.

Witch's Workshop v1.0

Requirements:

Android 2.2+

Overview:

Exciting match-3 and time management game play!

It's a mystical land of fairies and dragons, witches and wizards, indentured servants and old ladies who need dentures. Yes, that's right. Even in this enchanted place, the peasant folk have their troubles and are looking for a cure!

Luckily for them, there's the Witch's Workshop - a one stop shop for cure-all potions of all shapes and sizes. Annie's Aunt Gwendolyn had been running this shop for years until she mysteriously vanished while working on a potion to cure spontaneous invisibility.

The townsfolk are lost without Gwendolyn and need their potions, so it's up to Annie to take up her Aunt's broom, learn the ancient art of potion making and get the Witch's Workshop back up and running.

With the help of her Aunt's trusty pet, Dragonfire, some eye of newt, and a little luck, Annie will be casting a spell over EverGlenn in no time.

Installed ZIPS Creamed Glacier V3.11 on MT4G.

Almost everything is working, so happy with ROM and recent enhancements. Thank you.

While connecting the phone to Windows 7 machine via USB, phone shows “USB Connected as an Installer”. It further provides choice of MTP/PTP. Phone SD card does NOT show as drive on Windows machine.

What do I need to do in order to access SD Card from Windows 7? I wanted to copy the nandroid backups from SD card and copy new ROMs on the SD card.

Is there a way to go back to USB mass storage option?

Thanks

This is a known bug in 3.11. I think the fix is in here But if you wait a couple of days then the new release of Zips Creamed Glacier should fix this issue along with other issues.

what i did to transfer files onto sd card is use the android sdk

connected phone via USB opened the cmd prompt for sdk

and used adb push method

so when i wanted to install the low mic fix i;

copied the file to the platform tools folder then

adb push lowmicfix.zip sdcard/lowmicfix.zip

thats pretty much how im transferring files onto the sd card

zips said all these issues will be addressed in the next version

oh and if you wanted to copy something from your sd card to your computer look at the file from your file manager app to see the name then

use adb pull method

Hey there ;)

I've read this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Mini:_Full_Update_Guide

This means that it's possible to install ROM Manager in stock rom without risk?? is now compatible??

As I've read, ROM Manager isn't compatible with our device, and it can brick the device. But I'm kinda noob and can't tell you more details (:

1) Flash another ROM. Still broken?

a) No?: It was your ROM

b) Yes?: Go to #2

2) Restore to stock. Still broken?

3) Return the phone / warranty claim.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] PoNGxB:
updated my vivid to ics today, everything was fine untill i tried adding a new phone number to my sim card.

After hitting save i get "unable to save contact. sim card error"

i still had access to my other phone numbers and calls/internet

i figured maybe the card wasnt sitting right in its socket, took it out put it back, and then i get "No SIM card"

Took it out a couple more times and it still said "no sim card"

put it back a final time everything was back to normal until i tried adding a new phone number

"unable to save contact. sim card error" again.

Not sure if this is a ICS problem or a hardware problem, but any help would be appreciated
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Wild Child:
its neither saving contacts to sim cards is no longer supported feature
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] PoNGxB:
seriously? where did you find that out from...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] PoNGxB:
also, not sure if this matters but the last two phone numbers i added before ics were erased as well, all other contacts are fine
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Wild Child:
Hasnt been supported in awhile...contacts sync to google,obsolete function
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] PoNGxB:
ive been using the sim card for ALL my contacts since i got this phone 4-6 months ago, never had a problem.

like i said before unless ICS changed something then i should still be able to use the sim for contacts

and if sim cards are obsolete like you say they are then why are service providers still using them.

its hard to believe that they would just discontinue the use of sim cards for contacts for no apparent reason
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Wild Child:
Can use them sure, itll read them...adding contacts is another story,the added contacts on 3.0 were not saved to sim ill bet they were saved to phone and seen in your contacts for sure...it is not a supported feature@saving to sim any longer...no sense arguing or debating about it....on 3.0,3.5 and now 3.6 that feature has never worked@saving to sim...you can save to csv,back up from sdcard sync with google...thats about it....sony software allows this but not htc's..and to address why they would not allow it...well you can only store up to 250 contacts on a sim....google is unliminted...sim cards are used for more than backing up contacts too...lol...thats how your able to get service
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] PoNGxB:
im telling you that i was able to save contacts to the sim, how else would they be on there in the first place. and there is a point in arguing about it because your saying that sense 3.0 is unable to save to sim, and i know for a fact that it can
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Wild Child:
ok you know better than me....ask away then...enjoy your night boss ...:o)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] PoNGxB:
and if there is no such function anymore why is it that when i add a contact, under contact type there is SIM, phone, and google. if like you said the function is no longer in use why would they even put it in the drop down menu
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] PoNGxB:
and you said the contacts saved on 3.0 were saved on the phone, then why is it that when i change phones MY NUMBERS ARE ON THE NEW PHONE.

i never said i knew better than you, i was asking for help and you came on your high horse and said a bunch of stuff that makes absolutely no sense.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Wild Child:
Not on a high horse....lol...just have asked att about it have tested myself since getting the device....doesnt work...if your contacts were there then they transferred them at the store@sim....and also they sync with google automatically as soon as you set up market@them being there. If you think im on a high horse and took the statements in that manner then thats on you....my apologies....spoke from what research and dev i have done and do with this and other devices....
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] PoNGxB:
all im saying is i dont use google sync, i dont sync anything with my phone. and ive added contacts to my sim before and i know theyre on the sim. i can edit delete old contacts but not save them i find it strange that they would just discontinue the use of sim cards
