[HD7 General] pistol44:
Same with me. My biggest complaint so far is the search feature. I typed in "KFC" as in Kentuck Fried Chicken and it said "No Results" lol. Really??

And tried a local store and in showed me results in another part of the country.

I can be patient for the update but still prefer google maps.
[HD7 General] Kamu:
Got the same issue and no clue about how solve it. If you find one could you msg me?

Btw I tried to reset the phone and NOK :(
[HD7 General] pistol44:
Oh and I forgot how much I hate how when typing a location it doesn't start auto-suggesting like Google Maps does. Instead it forces you to type what your searching for letter by letter 100% correctly. And you better hope you do otherwise you're like me I spelled the street name "Britiania Rd" with 2 t's like "Brittania Rd" and ended up 150 miles away from what I was actually looking for. And it didn't even give me the choice to choose between the two!!!
[HD7 General] Sean D.:
Not sure how everybody else feels... I don't see a need to cry about everything, but I'm ASSUMING that since MS put out such a cool version of Bing Maps for the iTurd that they will do the same if not better for their own OS.

But at the same time I'm hoping for a Google hook-up too. I'd like to see a Google Hub where you can add the G-services you use... Maps, Gmail, Calendar, voice, Picasa, etc. Being able to access my "places" on GMaps would be kinda handy... but then again I have it saved on Bing too, so yeah... c'mon MS.

:D
[HD7 General] Tunisiano32:
I totally I agree. They have a lots of work to do fixing the map and navigation. My GPS position is off too. I wish Google bring their Maps application to HD7.
[HD7 General] paullu:
how to keep the srceen one when using bing map??
[HD7 General] evolutionqy7:
well im not too bothered about maps. But at this stage im pissed of that we have useless maps app. Coming from Google maps its a huge downfall. GPS that does naviagate and if i search an address i end up gettin results to US?

On top of no support for Bing, Zune, Maps just make it worse
[HD7 General] unit_three:
In TX and the maps work very fast both in Dallas and Austin. Much faster than previous Android phones I owned.
[HD7 General] tfouto:
in portugal where i live bing coverage is better than google.
[HD7 General] Strike_Eagle:
Living+ walking around Ritzville and Lind, WA. Have no trouble with Windows Phone 7 Default Map apps. It saved my life once when i got lost in Moses Lake.
[HD7 General] AceofSpades25:
Has anyone heard whether they will be enabling "Birds eye view" for Bing maps on WP7? Birds eye view is awesome... I just can't understand why there is no option to enable that layer in the maps app. The satellite imagery for Bing maps in the South of England is atrocious :rolleyes:
[HD7 General] TechJunkiesCA:
Maps is pretty bad. I am constantly on the road in Los Angeles and problems vary from the gps finding me miles away or guiding me to dead ends etc. Bing maps for 6.5 was way better as a nav solution
[HD7 General] Idhor Naergon:
Bing Maps on HD2

Bing Maps on HD2 has much better accurate than on HD7, and much faster. Besides this, I'm happy with my new HD7 ;)

1. Search dude. This is one of the most obvious questions I've ever seen asked here.

2. Read around the forums before posting, that goes hand-in-hand with searching...

3. Post in the right friggin' section. You have a [Q] in your tread title which means it's a question, which is fine, but its not a "Captivate Android Development" question! It belongs in the Question and Answer section. (which is amazingly obvious, it's not like they hide it from you around here)

4. The answer to your question is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989 which you didn't even need to search to find, its on the first page of the Development section which I know you looked in because you posted here.

*sigh*
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silverslotcar:
The kid has two posts total. He is obviously new to the forums. So stop just repeating what everyone says. He doesn't need four people to tell him its a question and should be in the Q&A section. Don't act like its outrageous for a beginner to do something like ask a question in the development section, LIKE OMFG JESUS!! Sick of the clutter from all the questions yea, but also sick of reading all the bash posts towards people that are fresh to the forums. You were once a noob too!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sebring5:
I have to agree with this 100%. When I first started I didn't even realize I could search the forums or threads. Instead of someone pointing out to me there was search and explain how it works I was unbelievably verbally beaten to a bloody pulp about what an idiot I was. Even today I was taken to task for a post that cites a measure of rom's performance instead of the accepted evaluations we see day in and day out-fantastic, great, best, unbelievably fast. To me the true evaluation of a rom has to be functionality and some measure. If you do not think Quadrant scores, net speed tests and Lin pack scores measure performance tell me what does. I understand e mail works, videos play, I can make phone calls etc. That tells me how the rom functions. How do you measure a rom's performance other than to say fantastic, great, good etc.? Tell me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anneoneamouse:
All the "this is in the wrong forum, dude" posts are not about development either, so you're all off topic.

Spend less time bashing, and more time helping the new forum members.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DemonWav:
So just because someone is new to the forums we give them some leeway because they can't READ? Seriously guys it doesn't matter how new you are, if you have a question, put it in the Question and Answers thread. Almost every website has a search function, they aren't hard to find, so that excuse of "I didn't know" is pretty bogus.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
when you are reading these forums every day trying to see whats going on in the dev world, all you see on the front page are [Q] threads, posted in the wrong section. then we have to filter out all the BS and try to find useful info, when it should be right there, easily accessible, which is the point of breaking up the sections of the forums....

it's clutter

and the mods do a good job of moving them, but the n00bs come in here and post the BS so fast, its impossible to keep up.

[Desire General] TheGhost1233:
Redownload the iso or what ever file you need. Make sure you deleat the old file and clear cash just to be sure, also do check md5 again
[Desire General] EddyOS:
Exactly that, that shows the download you've done is corrupt
[Desire General] ThePanama:
This is not a case of S-OFF only supporting anything.

This is to do with the intergity of the file you have downloaded.

If your downloaded file does not EXACTLY match the MD5 checksum on the website - DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT try and flash it, you will more than likely brick your phone.
[Desire General] mercianary:
Burn the CD at the lowest speed possible to avoid errors. Might be a bad CD, not a bad download.
[Desire General] EddyOS:
The MD5 checksum is on the download not the actual CD - if the download doesn't match then don't burn the CD

Here you go. You don't need the odex file, just rename this to email.apk (remove org). Before you copy this to /system/apps first clear all data and force stop email from settings>applications>manage applications> tab all (find email). And next time you want to change something do a backup of original first! ;)

But it was not only my fault, here is my story...

I made 2 Backups but both did not work. first backup was made by "android mate" during copy, the other one was created by titanium backup. The android mate backup messed up while I tried to move back into system/app. But the files was not written into the folder but was deleted afterwards. :-( Ok was my mistake should have taken copy instead of moving. who cares, I have the titanium backup- yeahh. But I tried 3 times restoring the email.apk from there without success. rebooted, email.apk was still missing and was also not avaiable at titanium anymore. at this moment I was lost ;)

[7 Mozart General] msalmank:
I spent $20 on these Jabra headphones that had great reviews... it is actually quite good but the max audio is kinda low than i expected! (With SRS or Dolby or one of the equalizers...)

Surprisingly the Rs. 200 headphones (approx. $2.5) that i bought here have a much higher output! But obviously i hate the build of that one...

Which headphone would y'all recommend that you've used and have gotten loud sound out of 'em - like enough to cancel out any external noise...

Speaking of... I also got the Jawbone Icon bluetooth but am really disappointed by the low audio playback on it... it is extremely low - totally not worth listening to music on unless you're in a quiet room! I tried a reset of the bluetooth device and more as suggested on forums but still poor performance... Anyone here using that bluetooth?
[7 Mozart General] heisven:
If you want it loud and still be able to get

some

noise from the outside (what you need if you ride a bike while listening to music):

http://www.amazon.com/Koss-PortaPro...P4ZH/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1290772270&sr=8-1

They look oldschool and the sound virtually boosts you away

or the Sennheiser PX 100 - 2

http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-10...4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1290772336&sr=1-4

or for really closed (you wont hear anything from the outside) you might try:

http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-PX...2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1290772438&sr=1-2

It's a matter of taste. Best thing is to go into a store and try all of them!
[7 Mozart General] cpatto1:
My Sennheiser PX 200 sound awesome with my mozart and has pretty high sound volume... I highly recommend them indeed!
[7 Mozart General] AngryNil:
There are rumours of two major updates early next year, supposedly for CES in January and MWC in February.

WP7 does seem to have an awkwardly low max volume, I can see this being easily fixed in one of those updates (since I believe OTA updates haven't been sorted out yet). Don't blame it purely on the headphones.

Personally, I would go for the in-ear earphones for noise isolation. I picked up the Logitech Ultimate Ears 100 earphones at a local **** Smith in Australia for $30, they function rather well (just that complex sounds are often muddy).

Has anyone a good and working live tv app?

I would love to try tv.com but since I live in Germany I can't get it over the market...

Can anyone confirm that?

You can try downloading it using My Market.

I completely despise the fact that Froyo builds include text messages and even voicemail messages in the Phone app logs.

Is it just me, or does the search function on Desire Z seems very slow - sometimes it takes up to 4 seconds from i hit the button to I can type in...

Anyone else experience this?
[G2 and Desire Z General] steviewevie:
You mean the capacitive button on bottom right ? I don't use that much, just tried it a couple of times now and it comes up instantly and I can type straight away.
[G2 and Desire Z General] vgergo:
Fix

I noticed that too! Sometimes it even took longer, like 5-6 seconds...

I had a lot of areas marked to be searched (Menu/Settings/Select areas to search). I turned off the ones I don't need, and now it comes in instanteniously. Actually it could be just one of them causing the delay, but I didn't bother experimenting.

I would guess it's one of the HTC items (Facebook for sense or the HTC likes). Too bad these HTC made extensions are so poorly coded. But again, I didn't try them separatelly.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Janik_dk:
hmm i also tried to un-check some of the web-based areas - but sometimes it is still slow..

Hi everybody,

I have a question,

Is it possible to run Iphone games on Windows Mobile?

I saw some videos on youtube which shows that it is possible.

Like this: ( this Sims 3 is for Iphone, how is it working on HD 2 )

[YOUTUBE]RGVZibkhVqQ&feature=related[/YOUTUBE]

Another one is Need For Speed Shift. As I know this is an Iphone game too.

I would really love to play games like these on my HTC Touch Pro . The Shift worked but i couldn't steer. Where could I find The Sims 3 ?

And the Sims 3 Windows Mobile :

store.handmark.com/images/products/124753/product124753-s1.jpg
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] darkkoushirou:
Simple answer? No. It's a complete different system. You can't play your SNES games on your Sega MegaDrive either.

This two games (and EA's Monopoly and Tetris, too) were AFAIK portet to WM to promote the HD2. Also AFAIK it was released by HTC Dubai some time ago, but isn't available anymore (Correct me if I'm wrong).

For now, you can't get these games on legal ways.

Good Luck... They were designed for the HD2, so it should not run pretty well on slower devices.

Nice you got it running, but this problem was mentioned a hundret times around here. Use the search function and you should find the answer.

Very nice, I tried it on JPO/JPP and it almost work perfectly. But there are some Text errors in English:

1.The notification area shows the carrier name correctly but the next line of text under that is just some symbols and the Clear button also just shows symbols (%%/?)

2.On the lock screen where it usually says "Sweep" it says "Sending..."

But looks great, very nice with Voodoo's Screen fix!
