How many apps do you think were available for the Iphone when it had just been released ?? Probably not much either. So, how can you expect that there's thousands of apps in the Windows store, when it's only just 'open for business'?

As already stated before, there's lot's of places where Windows Mobile Apps are available, many for free!

So stop complaining about the amount of apps in the Windows Store, and try searching the Web.....I hear Google is pretty good doing that for you.

[HD2 General] djngal:
i dont know about u but personally i LMAO everytime i see an iphone ad which is actually advertising the tons of apps that 3rd party devs have actually made for them rather than advertising their product.... :p

i even had an app for everything in my old Symbian S60 phone :p

[HD2 General] timiano:
Hi

Thanks for the reply. I don't use the marketplace as my main source of apps, and I've had an on off relationship with WinMo for quite some time and have used handango extensively in the past.

One of my biggest gripes over the App Store from Apple was its monopoly over what could be or not be in there. MSFT's model appears a little different as they appear to be more concerned about compliance rather than commercial conflicts - which is good.

But honestly, if you want WinMo to compete in the iPhone and Droid space, which I'm sure MSFT want, then their needs to be a marketplace for micro applications that cost reasonable amounts. And the apps need to be slick looking and not your usual .Net CF form bores.

I believe it will come, but it'll take some time.
[HD2 General] timiano:
That is an awesome idea. I'm surprised Handango don't have an installable marketplace app. I'd bet money on them having one in the near future though.
[HD2 General] the-uki:
I give you credit that there is lots out there. Thanks for the links too.

However:

Everything that is out there today for WM is pretty much outdated. Most developers now focus on the iPHone platform because there's more money to be earned - as easy as that. In France, iPhone now accounts for 60% of all smartphone sales and the trend is rising...

Look at the apps coming out for iPHone, and nothing for WM65. There are some very good medical, financial, GPS, astronomy, ... coming out. You name it. My paytv operator Canal+ just brought out a TV app enabling me to see all my subscription TV channels on the iPhone at zero extra cost - but nothing planned for WM !

The statement that iPhone is a closed platfrom is an outdated myth. You can do everything you do with a WM phone on the iPHone. It is jailbreaked, and you have additional app stores that host apps that Apple rejected. Best of all, all of these app stores have an automatic update facility built in, that automatically notify you of a new version of software coming out and offering automatic upgrade. You don't get that on WM.

I am myself an Eten and HTC fanatic historically, but I am observing that the "new generation" apps and games you get on the iPhone are just not coming to the WM platform - this is my biggest concern and worry about the future of my device.
[HD2 General] timiano:
To an extent, I'm unaware of a usenet/NZB client for iPhone and there are some other things that you just can't do on iPhone. The level of system customisation is one - although you could argue the native one is very very good anyway.

I do agree with much of your sentiment and it's frustrating. The reason I want a real market place with tons of exposure is to start bringing down the prices. SPB have been having a laugh on us for the last 10 years, but it's only because they can and there isn't much alternative.

I think once WinMo gets a XAML based design environment with Silverlight or WPF support, things will sky rocket as well as prices come down, as development costs for slick looking apps will come tumbling down.

For now WinMo almost remains the cool quirky development platform like Linux/Ubuntu where you need to do quite a bit to get it to how you want. That's not a problem but it just won't reach the masses until we get a mainstream rocking release of WinMo - 7 I believe will be it.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] -DR.V-:
Hi all,

I have a question about the "blackclock" for manilla I downloaded a while ago and has originally been created for the Diamond ,but it also worked for the HD. I'm now using the NLD Stock rom with the "blackclock" and I want to step over to the Mikenificent rom this skin ,because it's the only thing that prevents me from stepping over because I'm used to it having the "blackclock". So my main question is: Does the same clock exist for Windows Mobile 6.5 manilla 2.1 or 2.5?

blackclock downloadlink: http://www.easy-share.com/1908833612/blackclock[2]

[HD2 General] CaFFeiNe666:
hi, i'm very very very confused about my next phone...

my choices would be

htc hd2

acer liqui

differences

PRICE:

liquid:340€

hd2:620€ (almost double)

SO:

android vs windows mobile... windows mobile in 6.5 version is ****... it has a 2003 kernel, and an old "way of making things" in many situations... htc modifying makes things better... but don't know how much...

so it is importanto for me to know IF HD2 WILL SURELY BE UPDATED TO WM7...

camera

similar, but hd2 has flash

screen:

bigger, with all pros and cons... i prefer better screens, i don't mind about "too big" or those problems... both capacitives...

software

android has a lots of softwares... but windows mobile has also "particular softwares" to make a stupid examples, on windows mobile you have also games like "palm diablo" "palm heroes" and a lot of windows applications ported....

and you have a lot of "deep programmed software", for example you can configure hardware keys etc...

communities help etc

android has a big community, fragmented on various phones, that for now have different specs (we have old phones like g1 and new ones like acer a1)....yes very active but for htc there's xda, and there's nothing more to say, probably the most "powerful" community any device would ever have...

the biggest problem is

acer a1 liquid 340€ and has a modern OS

htc costs the double

my fear is that if leo can't be updated to wm7 would get older much faster than acer liquid...

cause yes, it has capacitive, it WOULD have multitouch... but we are talking of htc work-arounds and not of native kernel support... and if windows mobile7 will come in 2010, and htc leo won't get updated... i think software houses won't spend money developing for windows mobile 6.5 longer

the difference is that android is opensource, and usually updated on all devices... so has much more possibilities to be updated and get everyday more modern...

i'm very very very confused...
[HD2 General] Aqrab:
acer is eten

DOES NOT HAVE xda-developers SUPPORT

low quality

700mhz cpu

video recording qvga

no FM Radio

Android OS, v1.6

HTC HD2

high quality

1GH CPU

VGA video recording (can be 480p in the future)

WM6.5 --> WM7 (maybe)

its your choice if you dont like WM OS go for the Android
[HD2 General] CaFFeiNe666:
ah i forgot to say i already have a samsung omnia hd as primary smartphone (video at 720p and 8mpixel photos)...

yes your pros and cons are almost the same i have in my mind...

but for example, 770mhz cpu vs 1000mhz, yes, but also a much more optimized OS, so it almost compensate different frequency... usually at same frequency android is faster...

what do you think, hd2 is worth 300€ more than acer?

try to imagine, you already have money for liquid... you are a student without a work, and you have to "cut" some of your "money exits" to buy hd2, what would you do?
[HD2 General] Aqrab:
ok then go for the acer my friend :)
[HD2 General] suren21:
Hi,

What is the cost likely to be for both in Dubai and any idea where to get it ?

[HD2 General] gwelwhir:
The IMEI number shown on device does not match the IMEI sent to the GSM network?!

I have to register my HD2 with the local authorities in order to be able to use it in Turkey.

While in the process of doing so, I came across something peculiar:

The IMEI number I get with *#06# (which, also is the number written on the unit's box) differs from the IMEI sent to the GSM network by one digit.

IMEI on device and box: 35XX XXXX XXXX 051

IMEI as seen by the gsm operator: 35XX XXXX XXXX 050

Apart from being unable to decide which IMEI to register --I think I'll go with the one "visible" to gsm operators-- This could be a serious bug.

Has anyone else experienced similar behaviour?

Regards,

Gwelwhir

Edit: ROM: 1.48.405.2 (71294) WWE -- I'll revert to the original NLD ROM and see if the issue is the same.
[HD2 General] gwelwhir:
To try a different approach, I set up a BlueTooth partnership, and connected with PuTTY / Serial over BT to that port.

AT commands all returned "OK", but no information.

including AT+CGSN. The IMEI was not displayed.
[HD2 General] cmonex:
try:

AT@IMEI?

(with the question mark)

but I think this isn't very interesting. you probably meant the IMEI on the box is 2 chars shorter than the one displayed by software (usually a "01" is the extra 2 digits). that's perfectly normal
[HD2 General] gwelwhir:
Thanks Cmonex, I will try "AT@IMEI?" as soon as I can.

Other than that, I did not mean the IMEI on the box is 2 chars shorter, I am already aware of that. To clarify:

IMEI @ box: 35XX XXXX XXXX 051

IMEI @ dev: 35XX XXXX XXXX 05101 (+2 digits np here)

IMEI @ gsm: 35XX XXXX XXXX 050

I'll post as soon as I test the "AT@IMEI?".
[HD2 General] gwelwhir:
The situation is resolved:

As far as the GSM CDR is concerned, even if they receive the IMEI "wrong", they process only the first 14 digits of the IMEI; the 15th digit (and the 2 more after that where applicable) being inconsequential.

(So, I was able to register my device.)

As for the "AT@IMEI?" query, it does display the IMEI, thanks.

Read the stickies, find out the CID and Model ID ("ELF0100" does not mean anything), then find the appropriate shipped ROM for it.

If you cannot find it, follow the Gold Card method and flash a ROM with similar Model ID.

Try using Seven (beta). It's a currently free push email solution which works well with Yahoo mail. No need to check every five minutes as your mail will be pushed to and from your phone as and when they are received/sent and you can specify how many days you want on your phone.

There is a link to the download page in the software sticky on the Rhodium software forum.

oh dang thanks for the post lockbot is amazing i love it
[G1 Apps and Games] MetalMessiah78:
Thank you so much for posting twistedumbrella. I love this app!!
[G1 Apps and Games] evilkorn:
luma alock is that the one?

What makes it so different from the last one mentioned?
[G1 Apps and Games] NguyenHuu:
lockbot is sweet, it actually spins. spin one way to unlock and spin the ohter way to silent/vibrate, just like eclair lockscreen. i like it. plus a lot of customizable options you can do like rearrange stuff, change out icons, etc all within the app itself. much better than lock2.0.
[G1 Apps and Games] MetalMessiah78:
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but popups from Handcent and SMS Popup no longer work while Lockbot is enabled.

It is pretty customizable. I did the lockscreen in my sig with it..
[G1 Apps and Games] NguyenHuu:
i have handcent and popups still works fine for me with lockbot enabled.
[G1 Apps and Games] MetalMessiah78:
I guess it didn't work for me, because I have the popups set to be restricted. Once I put it on always allow, it works again. I actually went back to the Stericson Locksceen though and created a Metamorph to change the background whenever I want. Less problems and I don't have to have popups set to always allow (kind of annoying when I'm working on something).

If your device is listed here on the Wiki:

Just follow the proper link to your device.

If not listed means that is not build by HTC and probably you won´t get too much attention here as we dedicate mainly to HTC build devices.

However perhaps a member with similar device can give you more help.

I wondered if anyone was running Co-pilot on Modaco 3.0? This was working great on my previous stock rom but since updating it freezes after around 30 minutes use. If left the device gets quite warm as well. Anyone else had this problem and, more importantly, found a fix?

My problem is that I updated to 3.0, and 1.91 kernel and updated my radio at the same time. Does anyone have any idea which is likely to be causing the problem?

Cheers for any advice,
