[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keverline:
I'm using LP and I love it but there is an issue with the stock dialer. In the recent calls list in the top of the dialer window (where searches come up) if the contact is stored in my phone it no longer shows the phone number. This isn't really an issue for contacts I have pics for but for default image ones I just get a list of call that I can't see the number for. Any ideas?

I also have this issue. I also have problems dialing out from time to time its really annoying.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] c_legaspi:
now that i got a chance to play with wp7 oon the hd2, i find the os boring. i do say thats it is and is not like the old winmo.

not the same because the ui is different.

seems the same because when you open the windows folder, it takes a while to load.

os seems pretty fast but how well does it do with lots of apps being loaded? im not too fond of the tile interface and the straight in line icon/apps. seems that if you have a lot of apps loaded, the single list will just get longer and that just looks dumb.

not looking for fight or argument, just what are your thoughts are with wp7 running on your hd2. i personally wouldnt but a wp7 phone as of now.

i do think the hd2 is awsome because we can run several os's.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] mattfmartin:
Very boring, but that's my opinion
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] TheATHEiST:
Its very basic because its very young.

M$ have said that they are working on allot more user customization. Stuff like the apps page will obviously be changeable at some point, hopefully in next update, if not its plain retarded.

Im currently dual booting WP7 with Android as I cant see me having it as my daily driver any time soon.

PS. This is a WP7 discussion so it should have gone in the WP7 general forum.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] STHNS:
Ya I was not very pleased with M$ for some silly reason picking the horrible tile BS. I mean you want to have something nice looks good hell the whole 6.5.X base 29XXX was stable.

But the biggest thing M$ did was drop the legacy support and dumping CE now they can build it based on their own guideline which they outlined for WM7 spec, kinda like stole the play from Apple.

Would you want something like this?

This is WM7 on HD7, who would you take this?

Sorry M$ you did epic fail on building main screen user env. Maybe HTC should have stepped up and provided SenseUI over the tile BS and not make Sense dock though settings.

At the moment?????? Yes...It's very clean and user friendly but it's very boring... i switched to Android before 1 week until something new will come out!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] gatt088:
only opinions....

for me this is the FIRST wp7 rom on hd2 and is a lot more functional than the android first ones....

the interface can be boring using it for a long time, ok, the same with apple...but i'm sure HTC and XDA can do a better work on the UI, hoping in MS update too..

i'm still of the opinion that is good for daily use. for me the essentials are phonebook, sms, email (very good), internet (android better for now, waiting for opera)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] kurt-willems:
To me the biggest problem is the limitation of the UI.

Okay, maybe it can be funny the first 20 Minutes you used it, but after that????

I'm a big fan of personalization. and ok let be clear to me changing the color from Green to blue or orange isn't a personalization. I'm just missing Sense, (the big force of HTC)

To be honest except the Hardware look what is the different now between Samsung/HTC/LG/... WP7 versions? Yeah right no different.

I know everyone will saying it's new.... Yeah it is but at the other side, Windows don't tolerate that 3th users changed the UI. So, this means no Sense :(:(

Apart the fact it's running fast and stable. Yeah it border you after 20 Min. :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] STHNS:
LOL now that made me laugh, as I been saying long before WM7 even came out M$ sure thinks users are retarded or something as they designed this UI for 5years old? Its like they keep digging the hole bigger and bigger while being in it. I mean WTF they post to compete with AOSP and iOS with BS like that?

"I am WM7 look I have 4-5 tiles that moves, keep looking at it as it will move, oops BSOD" lol

Windows 6.5 was 100 times better in my opinion, and that even sucked. Long live android.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] tfouto:
i have to disagree with everyone i suppose.

I dont think wp7 (not wm7) boring at all. In fact i think Android is very boring and outdated. I mean wm6.5 and Android just feel from ancient history when compared with wp7. I have wp7 more than a week and certainly not's boring. Its way smoother than Android. But i mean WAY WAY... smoother.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] ballekom:
metro

actually it looks awesome on my omnia 7, less so on my hd2 coz of the washed out colours. I think its a great alternative os look. Im looking forward to folders coz the scrolling list of programs is getting to be a pain. love the sharp frill free magazine look which seems very 2011, all those rounded icons and faux shine fade of other ossers remind me of vista. plus its quite a popular look when yours eyes arent as sharp as a 20 something.

I dont bash other os.s. when youre locked into a 2 year contract people get quite attached and defensive of their phones.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] genesis123:
I love the feel of wp7 compared to android. For everyday use of texting and calling I prefer it, but for more app intensive stuff I dual boot android. The UI of wp7 just works.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] abbas:
I think for thinkerers like most people here ANY OS that you can not pull down and build up ten times daily will be borring to us. Our phones have become our major toys. Before I moved over to WP7, I was flashing MDJ's Gingerbread every day, modding the battery icons and such stuffs. I can not do most of that with WP7 and it is a bit annoying.

But I think WP7 as it is now is already much more functional for what really matter in a phone, sms, email, contacts, social networking than IOS and android. The mostly text-based interface is clean, fast and readable. I have used all the rest, I think this is the best.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] bnlf:
i like it. Actually all my phones and roms i used since wm5 and android i always prefered the closest to stock roms. I dont like funny things, collorful icons or "amazing" backgrounds...i want responsiveness, pratical and easy to use UI. No lags or bugs because i ****ed all the UI with random customizations.

And IMHO the problem with ppl saying its boring its because we dont have too many apps yet (or at least really useful apps) that uses tiles at their maximum potencial. So instead of dynamic icons on home screen you end up "watching" big blue squares or whatever is your color profile. Tiles is like widgets but better. One of the things ppl like android is because of the widgets. Afaik you cant do that on iphone (which is a REALLY boring device).

=]
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] DennisCSUF:
Can't really complain much knowing well WP7 came out what 2-3 months ago (officially not the betas). Honestly I love it & this is coming from someone who went from an iPhone 2G/3G/3GS to a HD2. Yeah is missing tons of features that both Android/iOS have (background apps, copy/paste/tethering you get the picture). But so far I love it next phone I buy will most likely have WP7 on it ;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] welki1979:
Found it boring at first but once you actually get involved with some of the non stock apps then it gets interesting.

I much prefer the way the UI works to Android although, as others have said, more customisation would be good.

Am now dual booting WP7 with Android (mainly for Wi-Fi tethering) but am using WP7 as my daily OS.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Cret:
My first thoughts on wp7 were indeed along the lines of it being boring or suchlike, but now I've used it as my main phone for a week or so I'm liking it more and more, and definitely more than I thought I would like it.

On the whole, it works very nicely compared with winmo or android. Admittedly the androind nand installs were TONS better than the SD versions but wp7 just feels clean and uncluttered, and normally I like clutter.

The weirdest thing is that the thing I loved most about winmo (the ability to tinker as much as I wanted) is actually something I'm mostly not missing as this os just does a good job with a few exceptions.

I love that the AD2P or whatever it's called works really well with bluetooth, the wifi doesn't eat the battery alive, and things like that.

What has surprised me most is the fact that while I had zillions of app shortcuts on android & winmo, I currently have 24 tiles. That sounds a lot, but it flicks so easily & smoothly through that it's barely like you have to do anything. That's a mix of apps/contacts/settings/and favourite pages. It's made me realise that most of those countless app shortcuts I used to have just mostly never got used in reality.

BUT, there are things that drive me ****ing nuts with wp7. Maybe they can't be done yet, or maybe they can and I just don't know how...

Font sizes - on emails screen. It's WAY too big. I'm not a dribbling imbecile so I can read a font smaller than 22point or whatever it might be. I want to change it.

Email settings - haven't yet found one for data size/download sizes per message. Sure it must be in there though.

Contacts - you should be able to customise the display of them. The layout is stupid as you get big font for the names but tiny for the numbers. If you're in the car it's impossible to read what the number is against a contact for instance.

Apps - not enough, but we all knew that would be the case.

Tiles - not a big issue but it would kinda be nice if you could vary the size of them and the style a little. I'm not talking full on eye candy but a little extra visual bling wouldn't kill it.

The multitask thing. I want a call recorder and I understand it's impossible because of no multitasking. That's not good enough, and it's annoying to close my music playing while I go do something else.

Sounds a lot but mostly they're minor gripes and it's proving to be way better than I actually remotely thought it would be.

I'm hoping in due course that the uber clever tefal heads and boffins on here will be able to make it look a little prettier and address some minor issues, but it's doing well for such a new player I think. :)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] AndHD2:
I know WP7 is very new and look at Apple with the Iphone, no bluetooth, crappy camera etc when it first came out. WP7 for me has richer and more useful applications. I mean, flicking from page to page for BBC Mobile or ITN app is very pleasing and for me, better than Android.

I think what everyone is looking for is more customization. Not just changing colour of the panel but adding your own patterns, background image throughout and not just boring black or white. For me I would love folder options in applications layout and the ability to choose folder graphics or pictures. End call button being more big and bold, better internet explorer, damn is that just pants. I would also love more usability with press and hold user interface as well. Adding another layout than just panes, swipe right for applications but also swipe again for widgets so you can truly customise.

i think now Android has the edge but in time, if Microsoft listens to what people actually want then WP7 will be the phone to have.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Blacked Out:
I personally love it, but I am a 2 years Xbox live gold member so I am slightly biased in that direction.

Out of all 3 OSes I have used, WP7 has the most consistent UI across all of them, It's minimalistic without being condescending and is very robust out of the box.

Android I needed an alarm clock and alternate music player and Windows Mobile was even worse.

Don't get me wrong though, Gingerbread was awesome and I loved GTX Sense on my WM6.5.

It all comes down to preference really. Windows Mobile for tweakability, Android for updatability and adaptability; and Windows Phone for consistency, gaming and eye candy.

The whole point of the OS is to be minimalistic and uncluttered. I actually like it better. The UI is consistent across apps and I love how clean the OS looks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] staypaidtre:
I made a huge comment about this topic in another thread, but I like Windows Phone 7's interface and it has the potential to be even better than Android. They can keep the tiles, but they need to add widgets.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] staypaidtre:
Agree 100%
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] fusion06:
Well...their motto IS...a phone to save us from...our phone. i think they were going for a very minimalistic u.i. I know it's in it early stages but i'm not sure if it's going to change to much because if it did,it'd be to cluttered and fancy and thus..not save us from our phones because we'd be on it instead of doing other stuff (remember the commercials?). so yeah,it is plain..kinda boring..simple, but i guess if your busy most of the time, that's what you need...get the most information out of just a peek.

The default gallery app is not displaying some of the photos taken with the camera. I can see the photos in the DCIM/Camera folder when I use a file manager app, but they don't show up in the gallery.

Anyone noticed this before? I do not know how yo recreate it.

I've made a video showing the bug happening:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OK8NO-97iOE

I take a photo, preview it without problem but when I load the Gallery app it doesn't appear. However, deleting an image seems to force the Gallery app to re-index the folder and the photos appear.

I'm hoping video proof of the bug may spur on a fix.

If you can sign and dont need your phone always available, id love to have someone whod be able to test new images i make. I have 3 or 4 different versions with variations on status bar icons but i uploaded the version with stock myn icons since i want to do status bar icons last.

I usually use mediafire but it takes forever to upload.... next version i will use mediafire

Im gonna do myn & cm7 first then ill try to hit other roms for the evo. My evo runs myn because my data runs better but i have a g2 so i like to mess with theming aosp roms.... choices choices =D

Isn't the ROM deodexed ? You should get the apps deodexed before pushing them.

You could give a try and push them both, but I think you'll be ending with a FC.

When you are in recovery mode:

1. Go to Mounts and then click on mount system.

2. With ADB while in recovery mode type:
