[HD2 General] MalekoUK:
This is a strnage one, hopefully someone can help me out here.

My misses has a 8520 blackberry. We were trying out inviting attendees to events.

I sent an invitation from my device, first off its annoying how it defaults to send via outlook email and i have to sync with outlook to send that invitation.

She received it on her BB but it said its an invalid format and cannot be opened.

However, she sent me an invitation to my device from the BB and it worked fine, was able to accept and everything...

Confused...

I tried looking at the BB forums, but all I coudl find was stuff about the BES and enterprise servers...not helpful.
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
My wife and my brother both had blackberrys until they got their HD2s recently. We had the same problems but worse. the only way we got it to work wad when my HD2 was syncing to a proper exchange or enterprise server, didn't work through google. Also when people with berries email me items my HD2 can't open them unless you save them to the memory with the correct file extension. Now we all have HD2s all is good.

Solution: get her to bin the RiM and buy a HD2. :)

does anybody think that opera made opera mini & 10 final because they are starting to develop a browser for wp7? or is this all just a big coincidence that they did the day after MIX or maybe they have giving up on windows phones & are just gonna focus on android??

thoughts?
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
No native code equals no alternative browsers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] havox22:
im not so sure i believe that there wont be other browsers, why else would they say that they have no problems with other browsers on the platform just to not allow it or to force them to use the IE engine (wouldnt they need native code or special access to even do that?)

is it possible to get flash working without native code? cuz if not then that shows that they are willing to let it be used i think there will be opera on wp7 & im not talking about that mini crap
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Why wouldn't they say they have no problems with alternative browsers? Sure they are nice unlike Apple, you can make any application you want... as long as it's done in SL/XNA.

And of course they do their own stuff in C++, they're not crazy.

As regards Flash, yes, that will be done in C++ as well, no doubt about it. But that adds value to their IE, while Opera is another matter. We'll see. So far they said specifically that SL/XNA is "the whole developer story".
[Windows Phone 7 General] Toss3:
Opera is going to be an option on WP7, but it can never be the default browser.
[Windows Phone 7 General] havox22:
at the same time options with different browsers add value to wp7 & unless that new IE is better & faster then safari then they will need it
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
No because alternative browsers may easily have Google as default search engine.
[Windows Phone 7 General] havox22:
IE on the pc can have google as the default search engine & even if the bowsers have it also you still wont be able to set google as the search button so people will still be using bing at the end of the day anyway
[Windows Phone 7 General] Shasarak:
Opera Mini doesn't run natively.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Yeah, but it's also not a browser really.
[Windows Phone 7 General] krjcook:
Microsoft never said that they wouldn't allow apps that competed with app that come with the platform. They said that It just can't be the default app. If you open a link in a outlook mail or you text message it will automatically go to the IE browser. But your allowed to use alternative browsers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nilzor:
Uhm.. so what are you saying it is? .NET?
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nilzor:
It's not that simple. Opera's income from the mobile market segment does not come directly from the end users (it's free, remember?). They deal with manufacturers and network operators to get their browsers integrated with their software. Microsoft have announced that OEM partners will be allowed to run native code so this COULD mean that Opera could be bundled with some phones if Microsoft sees it fitting. I doubt it though.
[Windows Phone 7 General] asadk:
The opera mini I use seems to be a java app.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Well that's the point anyway, isn't it? :)

It's latest WM version is native, there's nothing that prevents it from being made in C# or whatever - it's not a browser anyway, as it doesn't include a rendering engine, just a UI client for a cloud service.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Shasarak:
Opera Mobile is a native app; Opera Mini is Java.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Mithent:
Previously, yes. However, there is now is a native Opera Mini for WM. Of course, it's still using pre-rendering on Opera's servers.
[Windows Phone 7 General] chiks19018:
Since iphone has such a huge market share, wont the anti-trust laws apply to Apple for not allowing any other browser other than safari??????
[Windows Phone 7 General] LJKelley:
There will be Opera for WP7S. Microsoft has already said they will allow 3rd party browsers.

Flash has to be native code, and Microsoft has already siginaled there will be exceptions to allow native code. It is just they prefer you to do it with Silverlight or XNA if you can, and probably won't allow you unless contact them first with a reason.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
By the way, I don't see why this restriction of making alternative default applications is often dismissed as minor. How are you going to use Opera really if it can't be launched from other apps by clicking links, without copy/paste, no access to filesystem and without the ability to access IE bookmarks even? It'll pretty much be limited to entering URLs manually or using whatever built-in bookmarks/cloud storage they ship with. While technically and legally this is indeed "allowing third party browsers", realistically it's very close to "you can't use anything but IE on WP7". :)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] celsius0010:
Sign the WP7S boycott.. Unless you like Microsofts interpretation of an iPhone.. Lets reiterate all that M$ cut out..

- No flash support.

- No multitasking.

- No copy paste.

- No removable storage media.

- No other default apps.

- No USB mass storage.

- No sideloading apps (Non App Store).

- No customized UI.

M$ is saying F their current user base, its like they are saying you dummies should have got an iPhone.. I cant get any work done on this, 3D games and slick graphics are cool but not if I have to carry a laptop around with me. Sign this petition if you feel the same way.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] SonicFlare:
Hold your ground!

We're not given up yeat ))

WinCE is WinCE.. ))) you can patch it a little bit ))

And there WILL BE copy-paste, but it's not implemented in current build.

I would bet, that most of the stuff will be available in some "jailbreak" roms. It's just will be different experience.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] havox22:
yeah i hope you guys boycott so that MS will change alot of that stuff & add it to my new phone:D i hope you succeed
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] wandel:
I was waiting this reaction to Microsoft 'innovation'.

It is the general approach: if more than 50% employer crazy - product fit to it.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] HerrVorragend:
man... hold you breath...

1. nothing is official released, so all the pros & cons are speculations - nothing else. OK MS has shown somthing on MIX etc. but no one outside of MS realy now how near the presented system is to the final version!

2. WM7 should be an iphone-killer and an iphone is a device for endcustomers, not for it-pros! thats the reason why there will be a 6.x-version parallel to WM7.

So stay cool and wait for the final version, and when it arrives, you will know if you can live with an end-user-iphone-killer-device or if you will need a pro-user-device - than you have to wait for WM8 which will be a real new implmented OS.

WM7 is a quick reaction to the iphone - nothing else. microsoft has millions of business-customers which are using devices with windows mobile on. and thats the market MS makes money and that are th customers MS has to care about! Don't hype WM7 to much
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] constructorx:
It is the direction of the so called OS that is bad.

Lock it down! Lock it down!

I want my phone to empower me and give me more. I do not want some company telling me how to do things. I am not a Micro$haft drone.

Wherever you see WP7S you will see the iPhone. iPhone killer etc... It is iPhone younger brother or little sister...

Windows users are not iPhone users.

Microsoft is forcing the user to obay.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ramdroid77:
Regarding this topic a quick search gave me following result:

This doesn't sound a lot better and is nothing but the next logical step from WP7. Though the news or rumours are from 2008 so noone knows about their reliability...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] havox22:
2008 was around the time they hit the reset button so this is prolly true, i mite just skip wp7 & get a zune HD that & my tp2 should be enough for the next couple of years
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] trinest:
I like how people are *****ing about so many things which they see "wrong" with WM7 with out realising they have been replaced with alternatives- weather they are a better solution is remained to be seen, but you guys are way to quick to jump the gun.

It looks good, and half the stuff your complainning about is as locked down on the iphone and Android isn't the ants pants either (while its open soruce as you devs call it- from a consumer point off view no-one should really care, meaning there is no room for Android)
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] dracnom:
Interview: Windows Phone 7 battery life, copy/paste, multitasking, and more

Some good reading material whilst we await for the last day of MIX10. And this is a very interesting sentence from the site, the Copy and Paste section.

So if we raise our voice loud enough, they will listen, still quite some time before it comes onto the market, a lot can change. It would be amazing if Microsoft can strike a chord for both mass consumers and tech-savvy people with WP7S.

At the end of the day, I'm more likely than not going to get a WP7S phone, Xperia X1 failing me right now... Will look towards Android alternatives, not much of an Apple guy.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] havox22:
no ive been a supporter of wp7 since i saw it, but what really makes me mad is how they took copy & paste away just because they can with absolulty no upside to removing it i dont even use copy & paste but still, i dont like how they just said no we dont want u to have it because we dont think you need it, all the other stuff i understand why they mite take it away but copy & paste?? wth & i could care less about iphone or andriod

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] TroubleMaker411:
Hey all,

I was really hioping someone could give me a hand.

I am due a delivery of a hero at somepoint today. Now from what i have read and researched, the hero is a little behind with the Android version and we are awaiting a new update from HTC. ( i don't want to go the custom ROM route, not just yet)

Now, if the HTC rep i spoke to is to be believed, we wont get the update until Mid-April earliest. that's a month of my contacts, settings etc etc that will be lost with a ROM update.

My question is this, Can anyone recommend a decent back-up utility for the Hero?

I don't mind paying for it, but i would prefere if it can save my mail settings (maybe the 3 internet settings too as they are a pain)

I have seen a few apps around to do it, but you never know unless you try.

i would rather not go the trial and error route on my contacts!

(i have also heard that the Hero comes with a pretty decent PC Sync utility to install to my PC that will take backups etc, any thruth to this?)

Thanks for your help guys,

TM411
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Lennyuk:
"My Backup Pro" is a very good app (costs £4 ish i think) in the market. probably the best non rooted app you will find to back everything up.

If you were to root your phone you could use an app called "titanium backup" personally I haven not got on with it but a lot of people on this site love it (maybe I should give it a second chance?)

Google phones sync contacts with google by default (access via a pc @ www.google.com/contacts) so once your happy they are all on that website you never need to worry about backing them up on your phone ever again :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] TroubleMaker411:
Excellent,

thanks mate.

Quick question though, what is "rooting"

am i missing something simple?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Lennyuk:
Rooting is the process that gives you more access to things that you normally can't do.

Once this is done it allows apps to control parts of the phone that normally cannot be touched which is why titanium backup is probably the most complete backup app there is.

It also allows you to install custom roms etc
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] TroubleMaker411:
Cool, thanks.

One last question then, sorry to be a pain.

Would you recommend going the custom ROM/rooted path?

If so, is there an Android 2.1/new HTC UI ROM around that you would recommend i have a butchers at?

Thanks again mate
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Lennyuk:
Installing a custom recovery image does no harm to your phone and will give you the option to backup and flash a custom ROM if you wish.

I would defiantly recommend doing it.

you can always restore to default anyway to remove it for some reason you wished to do so.

there are guides on this site and good videos on www.theunlockr.com to teach you how to do it. It is not hard and just gives you that choice of how to use your phone :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] TroubleMaker411:
Thank you

You have been extremely helpful.

It's much appreciated

Hi I just saw your post, it seems that e2fsck can't scan your sdcard, format it on your desktop maybe it should correct this

btw did u try another sdcard maybe this one is screwed up

EDIT:

now I'm sure that your sdcard id partionned, you should backup your data and use a software to remove partitions and create one partition on fat 32 to use it correcctly

hope this will help

Hi all, despite searching and trying lots of things out I have stuffed up my settings a bit, and now have a permanent 'sending mms' message - but anyway.

I am trying to set up my vodafone UK MMS settings. I believe I have the correct settings under MMS options (It did work briefly) but the bit I am struggling with is how to setup the parts under conenctions. When I got MMS working it broke Opera's net access over 3G. Truing to fox that with many cabs etc has left me very confused and now back to having everything workinge xcept MMS.

If I set the network conenction setup manager it creates Contract Internet and My Work Network (but the latetr seems to have no settings).

I have gone round in circles for a few days and so would be grateful for any advice or cab that sets this up properly - I had my own for O2 but am struggling here.

Cheers for any help.
[Networking] Buff99:
Did you even try Vodafone's website?

this page:

http://help.vodafone.co.uk/system/s...&PARENT_TOPIC_TYPE=0&SOURCE_FORM=BROWSE_TOPIC

at top right has links to pdf's for tp2 detailing mail, internet, wap and MMS.

Go methodically through all 4 and you should be sorted.
[Networking] crazyC:
Thank you - yes I did try that exact page on my travels before posting.

Part of the issue may be that I am using a 6.5.x Rom and the layout is not quite the same as that envisaged in the instructions I think.

I am trying again but as I said - I have tried this way already.

EDIT - still struggling - could someone with this working on a 6.5.x ROM walk me through their conenctions setup under settings (I have the MMS Options part I am sure).
[Networking] Buff99:
aha... so it's normal connection settings you need

I have an Xperia on Vodafone on which i'm running a 6.5 Energy Rom . I manually tweak my settings as below... dunno if this will be of any help to you...

settings>connections>connections>advanced tab>select networks>select "contract internet" in top drop down>edit

> you should have a "contract internet" modem with number "internet" listed under modem; if not add it from your internet setting pdf.

>ADD wap settings as a new modem under the "CONTRACT INTERNET" settings (should be in your WAP setup pdf) (make sure no proxy set)(so you now have Auto Pick selected)> OK

on network management page for BOTH connections select "Contract Internet">ok>ok

go into std windows messaging client>on account selector screen select sms/mms>menu>mms options>servers>select whatever is there (Contract MMS in my case)>change "connect via" to "contract internet">OK

and I THINK that's all i do..

for anywhere you can select the connection use the "Contract Internet" option we've previously setup to auto switch between 3g and wap as needed.

hope that is of help...

Buff
[Networking] crazyC:
Trying this now - but that looks like exactly what I was looking for (in terms of what to put in where) so if this does not work then I am stumped!

Cheers for the help.

EDIT: Still no joy - it just sits there telling me it is sending the message but never going past 0%

Will try this after a clean flash when TPC puts up his next rom - or might quickly flash the 17/3 energy rom.
[Networking] crazyC:
Update:

I have sent a message - hurrah.

This seems to be related to the fact I enabled 3g. I usually turn off 3g to save battery, and live on Edge. Do you ned 3G for MMS to work on vodafone? Or was this a coincidence?
[Networking] Buff99:
Just saw last post as i was typing more suggestions- woohoo!

I always leave 3g enabled BUT for me I travel an hour and a half to work on train and the reception is very variable, so leave all possible connections enabled, sometimes one drops when the other doesn't.

I'm not that bothered by battery life; energy roms get me easily a couple of days which means i never really consider power an issue.

but i don't think mms SHOULD be 3g related (unless it's something to do with the implementation of MMS on your sense 2.5 rom... hmmm)
[Networking] crazyC:
I do believe that, thanks to your help, I now have this sorted!

It was all about which way to have things et up under the network management tab really - I was putting the wap conenction as a different heading rather than a modem under the normal one.

Anyway, following the latest EnergROM flash last night I have got it working again!

Thanks a lot for the help.

I am going to try and make a provisioning cab that will sort it all and will post it if I finish it. Its setting the default connections on the network management tab that might stump me but we will see - there are plenty of examples around - its just a question of time. the MMS settings are just a reg export as well.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] samsanchez88:
If you're looking for raw speed, try out some of the roms that are based on wm 6.1 + sense 2.1.

There are several out there, most popular beinh Topix or Parks Basic..... all of them are really fast, free loads of ram to run several apps at the same time and are also better on battery. If you're not bothered by wm 6.1, give them a try!!

NRG PHOENIX 2 Build 21892 from 4th Feb is a WM 6.5 ROM with Manila 2.1 SENSE

And i can say that is WITHOUT ANY BUGS .. SPEED SMOOTH and free of Bugs.

Now im using PHOENIX Build 21893 from 16 Feb is the same like 4 feb release the diference is in the PagePool and this release have only one BUG the add new contact from the dialer not work but i don`t care im using this because i like the new Dialer much.

If you are looking for a serious FAST and Bug free ROM then just download PHOENIX 2 build 21892 from 4th February also download the PagePool CHanger here from XDA

And you can change the PagePool from 22 to 18MB witch i think is good combination

Then Flash and will see for what im talking about...
