Don't use that bull*hit hopeless SE default alarm. I was late to work a few times because of it. I have been using Alarm Clock plus for 3 weeks now and so far so good
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ppirate:
As the previous poster, I use an other Alarm app. I've been using AlarmDroid. Great alarm, with option to shake to disable and flip to snooze :D

Now alarm clock process running as foreground process in android 2.1 sony ericsson (bug)

if you are killing all the running process using task killer then alarm clock will stop working.

Solution: add alarm clock process to ignore list in task killer.

Hi,

Does anyone know a good battery app that doesn't drain the battery of the streak( I am on froyo).

Thanks, :cool:
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] cameronmfjay:
I've just recently downloaded battery status donate (donate for the skins) and its been really nice. My favourite so far.

I use BattStatt myself.

Free in the market.
[Streak 5 Themes and Apps] leozolt:
Battery snap draws nice stats over time so you can graphically see heavy usage of battery. It does also count load cicles and display longest offline time beside other info

[G2 and Desire Z General] charlieton:
When I was looking up info for the G2 I always read about battery life in percentages and comparisons against other phones/batteries. I wanted specifics of how the battery was used. I wanted to know if it was worth upgrading the battery. I knew that the G1 has horrible battery life. It was so bad for me, I even went out and bought the seidio big battery, the one that has its own custom battery cover. That thing made it look like a brick and everyone commented how huge and heavy it was. It wasn't all bad, as they loved the keyboard =)

I looked down at my G2 just now and it had the empty battery blinking with the redslash. Because of my experiences with the G1, I was ready for the G2. I have 3 seperate charging/usb cables: at home, in my car, and my workplace. Is that paranoid? I just knew that with my G1, it sucked being without a phone in the late afternoon. Just now I realized I hadn't charged my G2 all day. I looked up the battery info since last unplugged today.

14:55:38 hh:mm:ss

I couldn't believe it. I use my phone pretty well throughout the day.

Here are the details of my phone usage with the stock battery. I've had the phone awhile now, so I dont abuse it nearly as much as I used too.

Stock ROM

Ota Update

Temproot via Visionary

Overclocked to 1017Mhz

Tasker: 1 task for gps using all apps that need it (maps, sky map, etc)(I should probably use this more)

Email/Texting about 10/hr throughout the day

Brightness on auto till 4:00pm, after that it was set to 20%

Wireless on for 4 hours

Bluetooth on all day

4 games of sudoku (about 10 mins each)

2 full levels of defensoid

4 hours listening to music/listen streaming application (on the road into and out of work, yea really long commute, 2nd shift)

2 hours of talk time

Tesla Led for about 10 mins

Maps looking up an alternate route in traffic

AndroidAlarm task running all day

Christmas shopping for about an hour in browser.

Surfing reddit for fun for about an hour

Reading through the black ops app guide again (trying to figure out the perfect load out) =)

A couple of other apps, but not more then a few mins each.

I'm in a HSPA+ zone 95% of the day.
[G2 and Desire Z General] convolution:
profile for SetCPU plz?

and btw that's insane
[G2 and Desire Z General] charlieton:
I dont use a profile with setcpu. I just start it after root and then move the 1st slider all the way up. I used to have a problem with keeping the OC at whatever I was OCing too at the time. I used a profile back then. But then after switching out my sim card and the OTA, I don't have an issue with keeping the OC at 1017MHz. I would constantly use linpack to make sure the OC was working, only because it was faster then running a full quadrant.

I did notice my battery get substantial hotter after the OTA using val=(anything above 62), so thats why I just stayed at 1017Mhz.
[G2 and Desire Z General] G2 man:
I got my chichitec red batteries and love em so far right now i have my g2 since unplugged im at 1 d 1 hr 54 min and its still at 60 percent modertae web searching and phone calls throughout the day oced to 1497 mhz with set cpu profiles
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] buffalosolja42:
Not with all the live stuff (would be nice though) but when I flip something up it goes into trash or closes it (think it is nice interaction) also with only pages/programs open shows up in screen slides with this interaction. Could possibly make winmo perform a little better. Sorry for bad wording and such but pressed for time at work :) Hope someone takes interest in this .
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] irdawood:
A really good simple app idea for Windows Phone 7

Its funny how one always has a great app idea after the event (read; http://www.windowsphone7.com/ineedt...2526pmodex253D1x2526gridviewx253D0#pbbh21054p),

An app I thought that would be really cool is a supermarket price comparison. The 'story' is that you visit you local store with your shopping list on your phone; the phone checks off the items on the list when you scan their respective barcodes, also as you scan the barcode it brings up the price for the product and the price from the competitor supermarket chains. I think this app would really sell well, and people will buy it because they know they will make their money back in their first shop :)

What do you guys think?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] blackmeto:
i would definitely use it
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] warenbe:
+1 !

but the problem is: who will update the price and the product list?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] irdawood:
I believe there already is an API available (for the web -UK supermarkets) which does this for you...all a coder/dev needs to do is build the app.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] warenbe:
an API for worldwide would be perfect... i think google provide such api for US/europe?

otherwise, maybe somebody can find an agreement with online stores to provide prices and models ...

really the idea is interesting and someone should start coding it :) (personnaly i don't currently have enough time :()
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] buffalosolja42:
I remember hearing of the Iphone porting of apps a while back

I was just wandering is anyone actually doing this? I know there is an windows equivalent every now and then but sometimes the apple app works better. I know I am a 6'4 guy that 270, and I love the Lose it App (my fiance has) and I know about vita one (no were near the build in database). And other things that help communicate with others and such. I am not going to apple been there 2x and always perferred windows mobile for the last 6+ years just wanted to ask this. If someone took it up to port apps I am pretty sure there would be hundreds or thousands of people willing to donate/pay for your hard work. Just a thought.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Windcape:
Problem with porting certain apps, is it requires you to actually have a iPhone :p

If you got some links to apps you would like ported, with screenshots and so on, I'd love to check it out, as porting apps is a good challenge to get familiar with the development environment.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] buffalosolja42:
Thanks I meant to put this in the development and hacking section in general not just windows 7 ;), here is a link to one of them I thought about creating a bounty or reward system for people to request apps and pay developers here to port them? Here is the link for one http://www.loseit.com/

really nice app because the database is constantly updated with nutrition facts from most of places we eat. I will have more later when I repo my girls phone for a while.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Omega Ra:
I would totally use this. I have the Shopaid app and it is okay, but doesn't update the price and such
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Windcape:
The thing is with applications like that, is it depends more on the data that's available. Duplicating the interface into a Metro styled hub for weight-loss and exercise could be done in a day or two, but getting the actual data setup is a completely other story.

Beyond that, you can be totally sure people will duplicate that type of app.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] darkmurder:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_A4TdEV3Sk

Looks like someones already getting the ball rolling.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] CarlosMobile:
Someone is already developing that app actually, just go to Youtube and type "windows phone price check app" and you'll see. I can't post the link because I'm new here! The app looks amazing so far.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] jmacentee:
My company, with decades of experience with Windows development, is looking to break into mobile development in a big way with the launch of WP7. We have a couple of original ideas we are working on, but we would also like to officially port a successful iPhone app or game for some additional credibility.

I've approached a couple of different iPhone app developers with this proposal:

>>Let us port your app at our expense and we split the proceeds 50/50.

>>You retain all ownership and have quality assurance approval before launch.

I have tried every phrasing I can think of to convince them I am legitimate and that I want to create an arrangement where I take on 100% of the risk, but we share equally in the reward.

So far, not even a reply.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Jason

ebook readers

I curently have an HD2 and will probable end up with a WP7 device at some point when they come out. However I'm a big ebook fan and at the moment i'm tempted to get an android phone so that I can use he Kindle app. I'm waiting to see what developers come up with for WP7.

Do you think there's a good chance of a kinde app or something like it being made for WP7?

Cheers

Steve
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] pittaman:
I think so. I think the amount of sales will be suprising, and that there will be more hardware with WP7 on it than critics give it credit for. There are alot of peopl ethat HAVE an iPhone that want out. My father just got the AT&T Galaxy S (Captivate) and loves it, diching his iPhone 3G.

I think they would be silly not to. I'd prefer a Nook app on WP7 myself, but something to start would be nice!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] bugsykoosh:
Brandon Watson said they were worknig with developers who already had WM apps - that means B&N for sure. MS also has an eboo reader but it's unclear if they are going to bundle it with the phone (not likely). Based on the ease of writing WP7 apps I'd suspect all of the large developers to write a WP7 app and they are permitted to have their ebook stores.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] steevwatson:
Let's hope that you guys are right and there is a strong enough uptake to make all the big players developer readers for WP7. competition is a good thing after all!

Cheers

Steve
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] rim:
I relay like your idea…

After all because I had nearly the same :-)

But I would give it more features…

X Online Service for the markets where they can register the products with barcode and price

-„POI“ Database with geodata of the markets

-Markets can enter special offers

X Online „Community“ section

-Users can Post reviews and vote for products

-Users can vote for markets / stores

-Users can enter alternate products

X Private section for Users

-You can make your grocery list an search for alternate products

-You can enter an amount of saving and a distance you would go for

So the system could give you a shopping tour

Now to the Phone App

X The App can download your grocery

X You can make a Live price comparison with the barcode

-The app could give you a market / store, it would consider your amount of saving and a distance you would go for

X You can do a live vote for Products and Stores

X You can enter a grocery list

X You can search for alternate products

X The app would use the geodata and GPS

SHOP NAV!

I thought of an app years ago called shop nav.

You type in your shopping list and your phone guides you around the store in the correct route.If your in your local then you know where everything is.but how many times have you shopped in a different store one only to find everything is in a different place:mad:.You spend most of your time doubling back on your self and walking up the same flaming isle 3 times!:confused:.Supermakets are getting bigger and if an app like this was possible it would save everyone time and ease shop congestion.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] aznwannabe358:
I was wondering if anything has changed on this subject matter? I was hoping for something similar to titanium that is on android
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] lapingultah:
ScummvM people here are saying it's not likely to happen. Shame, would've been awesome :/
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] lapingultah:
I don't think this has been done yet, so I'm throwing the idea here. This would require some functionality that's associated to custom ringtones etc, so I doubt this app would find its way to Marketplace, but would be greatly appreciated through other distribution ways. I'm thinking about a simple Profile app, which would function like a shortcut to change multiple ringtone and sound settings through one view.

What I have in mind is a selection like this (the entire app would only use a single list like below):

General - Ringer: On, Vibrate: On, user's default ringtone and notification sounds

Silent - Ringer: Off, Vibrate: Off, all notification sounds disabled

Pager - Ringer: On, Vibrate: On, ringtone and sms/e-mail notification sound set as a single "beep" (Nokia-like single beep sound)

Beep - Ringer: On, Vibrate: Off, ringtone and sms/e-mail same as above

Offline - Airplane mode

What do you think of this?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] wheresmybeaver:
Yup. This is another situation where a popular app cannot move to WP7 because MS does not allow native access (ie C++).

There is a chance this could change however as MS are keen to have some bigger players move their apps across, and have said that they may allow native access for certain developers. Still, ScummVM could not be a marketplace app because it is an emulator, so it would have to be a sideloaded hobby app. We'll just to have to wait and see.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Bummerten:
Something i REALLY REALLY miss on WP7 is a decent bridgebuilder. Im on the verge to learn developing and make one my self.

Damn i hate my friends for there Android and HTC X Construction.

We only got stupid worthless Xbridge, which is overpriced and carelessly build.

DVR by remote

Hi mine is a request for a specific app able to see dvr and cameras on each wp7 device. An app like QQEYE for win mobile or like CPLAYER for iphone that permitts to see remote cameras or dvr through DNS account. I think that someone has already thought this project cause it can be a very useful application that doesn't exist for Wp7 platform now. Actually app like IP CAMERA has a few of functions and there is not possibility to see H264 dvr. So champions realize it please!;):)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ShaGGy_UK:
I think some form of app that could TIDY up the apps screen.

I.e creates sub lists

Apps - Money
- Fun
- Sport - Football
- F1

Hope you can see what I mean, as the apps screen just gets bigger and bigger as you install apps some way of making it tidy would be Great.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] sensboston:
Unfortunately it's not possible by official way (using WP7 Silverlight or XNA frameworks). The only solution is a software equalizer but it's required a lot of work (audio should be decoded "on-the-fly" to PCM format) and will affect to handset performance and battery usage ('cause of CPU load). Another way is to use a native libraries (as HTC did for their Surround) but it's not for third-parties...
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] smuppy:
Data Monitor Usage

Like SPB Wireless Monitor?

Have tried to find anything in the SDK which would allow me to do this but cant find anything useful, BUT there are two apps in Marketplace which does exactly this BUT for SPECIFIC apps (not the connection itself).

Oh, and does anyone know if OpenNetCF is/will be useable when coding for WP7?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] tanders04:
You know what games I don't see enough of on any of the platforms? Catapult games. I'm talking about games like Toss the Turtle, Burrito Bison, or Bezerk Ball. Even something like Learn to Fly would fit in.

Shoot something out of a cannon (or launch down a ramp, hit with paddle, whatever) and try and get further by picking up upgrades and hitting bad guys. Even a little tilt control for some basic control.

Thats my $.02. Hope to see one in the market soon!

We need a F1 live timing app

There seems to be a open source .net api for live timing

Surely one can use this to create a live timing app for wp7? I would have a go but it's way over my head.

I think a really useful app for my htc Sprint arrive. Is an app like wifi router for windows phone 7 devices.

I had this on my htc touch pro 2 and it was awesome.

Please make it so. ;-)

[APP/PROJECT] App Idea - DJVU WP7

It would be nice to have a DJVU reader for WP7, there is alot of open source code floating around, and I just don't have the skill to format it for WP7.

This would be a useful app though.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] laymansnerd:
Idea for an app, but unsure about a few things..

For whatever reason, the wireless network at my work doesn't work well with my LG quantum. There is a proxy that needs to be bypassed through the web browser and it works 1/4 of the time. Now on to my point, I am looking to design an app that can turn my wireless off based on my GPS location. That way I don't have to remember to turn it off. Is there a way to directly access the WiFi controls through the application?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] ryan00793:
I emailed Nintendo just for s***s and grins and they were like NO NO NO!!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] skycamefalling:
Just my two cents:

First, developers have no access to WiFi (right now), officially.

Second, this app would need to run in background all the time which won't be possible due to lack of 3rd-party-multitasking.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] jan123456789012:
Would be osum if we had a nes emulator with all games.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] _calum_:
First up: this is the wrong forum. This sort of stuff should be posted here. You really should read the stickies at least....

Secondly, skycamefalling is right - no way to do this in a marketplace app at the moment.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] derausgewanderte:

is that available in the same series?

thanks again
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] crecsky:
I'm new to WP7 so I don't know if these are possible:

-A live tile that displays battery percentage.

-Disabling WiFi sleep (Although I think that someone said there is no access to WiFi).

-Emulators and Roms are always a plus.

-I assume most of the awesome games from Android and Iphone will be ported over eventually (hopefully sooner than later).

-A hide photos application.

Source code for PSX4Droid now available. Anyone want to do a WP7 port?

Anyone wanna take a crack at porting the now open-source PSX4Droid to WP7 homebrew? I'd do it myself, but I'm just in the beginning stages of my Computer Science program so I'm not skilled enough yet.

Source is attached.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Laquox:
Not sure if it has been mentioned yet or if the APIs even exist yet, but I think a good many people would love an SMS app that does auto retry instead of the manual "Can't send click here" thing that WP7 comes stock with. I know there are Android, Iphone, and WM 6.5 apps for this so porting for the right developer shouldn't be that hard. That is IF the APIs are there and we can access them.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] scoutzr:
Some App Ideas/Requests (not sure if these apps can be created or not)

Hulu App - watch the large library of tv shows, and clips from Hulu on your WP7

IM App - an instant messenger that works with aim, yahoo, windows messenger, etc. (all-in-one)

These are just apps that would be really great if they existed. Consider them?
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] lapingultah:
[Q] Caller profile app?

This question seemed to go unnoticed elsewhere, but as this is relatively simple app and I'm certain there are plenty of other people who would have use for this as well, I thought about asking it here.

What I have in mind is a selection like this (the entire app would only use a single list like below):

General - Ringer: On, Vibrate: On, user's default ringtone and notification sounds

Silent - Ringer: Off, Vibrate: Off, all notification sounds disabled

Pager - Ringer: On, Vibrate: On, ringtone and sms/e-mail notification sound set as a single "beep" (Nokia-like single beep sound)

Beep - Ringer: On, Vibrate: Off, ringtone and sms/e-mail same as above

Offline - Airplane mode

What do you think of this? I'm feeling kind of frustrated seeing Microsoft presenting the most complex Qantas livetile flight information applications coming with Mango etc, but something as common and simple as this isn't mentioned anywhere...

The three most crucial things, not including battery life, I look for in a phone are 1) Sports trackers or alternative (Endomondo is great here), 2) Spotify (coming... come faster please?;) and 3) caller profiles (been around for ages) and now I'm only missing one, but that one could be enough for me to ditch the entire platform for now, which in turn I'd hate to do :/
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] emigrating:
I'm fairly certain this is coming with Mango, but it would be considered a consumer feature, and as such would not been announced yet.

I would go one better though and want developer access to this. Using background agents to change profiles based on time and location (you're at work - phone is silent for example) would be great.

Not sure if reg edits should be included here or not...

I would like to be able to reg edit and adjust how long you have to hold down the search or back capacitive touch buttons before they respond. I often accidentally hit those buttons, but if there was a delay required for them to respond, I think that could be avoided.
