Where are you seeing these features listed they're not in Zune yet?
[Windows Phone 7 General] mickfarr:
I don't think they would have been sending out Zune updates to test the phone. :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
When you go to settings for the device... Where you set up WiFi sync and such...

When googleing WP7 Update news, I keep getting articles titled "Camera settings not retained in update for WP7‎ ". Like that is some sort of breaking news. No one thought it would be. Hopefully it comes down in some future update, but there has never been even a hit that it may be in this one. Some web pages will post anything to try to generate hits. Works especialy well when the post is in a MS hating tone. Drives me nuts.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mickfarr:
I know where you're talking about and I can see the update option but I don't see a restore option or a backup option anywhere there. If there was is one there you'd be able to backup and restore your phone now, it wouldn't be disabled. This version of Zune (4.7.1404.0) was last updated on the 11 of Oct 2010 so I'd be pretty sure a new version will come out with the new features.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Anthonok:
It's there trust me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] mickfarr:
Thats good to know :p
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tito662:
The February 7 date is nothing but garbage created to generate traffic. If you even bothered to check out the original "source" (the french blog) you would have seen that even the guy behind it claims that he doesn't know anything and that WMPoweruser came up with the Feb 7 date after he tipped them with a link to his crap post which doesn't even mention this date :rolleyes:. I find it amazing that this has made the rounds and not a single blog who re-posted it bothered to check out where it came from. Just goes to show that most of these blogs are in it for the traffic and $$ only.

@Anthonok is right, the backup system is already in the current Zune software and has been in there since the software was invented when the first Zune player came out in 2005 (once again this was posted as news by many blogs even thought it wasn't).

WindowsPhoneThoughts had a lengthy article on it back in October and MobileTechWorld even posted screenshot of it.

Iirc its another standalone setting.... Not in the update screen

If you browse the create.msdn.com forums, you'll see quite a few people having trouble with the new SDK, and Microsoft saying they've discovered some issues internally. It'll be a little while longer before it's released.
[Windows Phone 7 General] FiyaFleye:
That's disappointing...

Anyway regarding the restore settings, I wouldn't doubt if I'm remembering incorrectly... Lol

[Windows Phone 7 General] Peew971:
That thread is still open? So it's today then? :D

To be fair I don't even care about this update. Copy and Paste and improved apps speed when Google and Apple are readying Gingerbread and iOS 4.3, that's going to resonate like a drop in the ocean.

No, really Microsoft need to have that rumoured Mango update within the next 2-3 months if they want to be taken serioulsy. I'd say MWC is almost make or break for WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] captobie:
And if they push something buggy to your phone, what would that do to your opinion of Microsoft?
[Windows Phone 7 General] JamesAllen:
Between a rock and a hard place

Look, MS is in a bad spot here. They need to prove to their markets that they are serious about competing. All of this rubbish about where Android and Apple were at this time in the release of their OS's doesn't mean a thing. MS needs to compete with their competitors where those competitors are NOW in the life of their OS's. These arguments about cutting MS a break since their OS is "new" are rediculous. Having said that, they will lose this race completely if they push out releases with problems. Given their size and resources, they CAN both release problem free code and meet the needs of the market, they merley have to prove that they can do this and the next couple of updates will tell the tale. That is, how often do they update and are those updates meeting customer needs.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
What MS need to do is fire their marketing and PR people. Right this minute. And get someone with brains and enough courage to step up and say something against the current idiotic practices.

You can't launch an OS and then not give anything for media to chew on for four months. This is insane. News is vital for consumer interest. Relying on advertising alone (especially of the glance and go meaningless type) is so wasteful it's not even funny.

And they have such a good topic - updates. Tell the world about the update. Tell the world you figured out something crucial you wanted to add. Tell them how great it will feel. Tell them how it will work for all devices. Tell them something every freaking week. Tell them you're going to add a freaking useless tile color, whatever. It doesn't cost anything, why are they keeping mum like some KGB spies?

Oh, and rename the damned thing!

100% AGREE If they dont save the newborn in time it will just die. Its not about those dumm updates - its about the customer and his satisfactions. Nobody cares about c&p update. Ppl want to see bt transfer, skype, proper gps apps and all those bugs posted in this forum... And why the f*ck is the simplest update not still showing :mad: A month ago when I bought my hd7 i was amazed and laughed with my a** I see nokia was joking with their customers too but this now is just pervert. 4 Months and still waiting... IDK what to say it's just ... unforgivable. Good thing is the chevron jb It's the only thing that stops me from selling this .... phone.

[Windows Phone 7 General] mickfarr:
It makes sense to update Zune before updating WP7, alot has changed since the last time Zune was updated. Even if the backup and restore is there but hidden.

I'm supprised some people didn't think it would be needed. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] alan1467:
From the Microsoft WP7 forum

Over the next few months look for updates for Windows Phone 7 that add new features and optimize your phone’s performance.

Please prepare for this by updating the Zune software. If you experience problems pleaseview our troubleshooting content.

[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Me, I'm not going to update anything until I'm certain there's a reliable unlock method for whatever comes with these updates. Even my PC Zune software will remain untouched so far.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pseudoware:
fyi, the Zune update has not affected my unlocked device, XAP installations, etc. Of course, that won't be the case with the WP7 update.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Thanks for the info, good to know!

Any visible benefits?

I honestly can't tell at this point. All appears the same with what little I've done so far. I'll keep playing with it.

[Windows Phone 7 General] emigrating:
I can't see any difference in Zune - even the build no is exactly the same after the "update". I've seen some people report it starts faster, but I dunno, it's always been pretty much instant here anyway.

I find it weird there is no change in build though, so perhaps it's just a DRM update or something?
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
I've read somewhere that two files are updated - ZuneWmdu.dll and ZuneWmduResources.dll. WMDU should mean something like "windows mobile download update" or some such nonsense.

Just a quick question...what will the update do?? AS is, will i wipe out the data completely or will everything be intact, only the system files will be updated??

The update doesn't do anything, it just prepares for NoDo, read the dedicated thread. Everything is intact when it's over.
[Windows Phone 7 General] failtorespond:
I doubt very highly any update will ever wipe out all of your data. That would just be..bad.
[Windows Phone 7 General] biernes_atrece:
All data is intact. As a matter of fact, even the uninstalled apps on the device installed themselves back. I have to uninstall them again.

It does a backup in the middle of the update process.

I have android wifi tether installed and running, so I know I'm rooted. Although the wireless works great on my laptop...my main pc runs Ubuntu with no way to receive.

I was wondering if there is a way to tether the same connection via USB....just as free, and easy. Thanks.
[Droid 2 Global General] cellzealot:
Yes, if you se the TBH NVRAM method with RadioComm to change the tethered NAI strings you can USB tether in Linux with no problems.

http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/android-hacks/5156-tbh-droid-3g-hotspot-nvram-hack.html

[Droid 2 Global General] Killavbeez:
I did quite a bit of reading but I'm still slightly confused. I've got both the patch and unpatch zip files downloaded. I'm already rooted with gummyjar flashed, so using bootstrap and getting the zip files installed shouldn't be a problem.

What I'm not clear on is after I install the patch and reboot...what am I looking for? An actual app? More configuration? Just plug in to pc? I'm also not sure where this login information comes in. I'm somewhat new to any modding so many thanks.
[Droid 2 Global General] cellzealot:
You can't use the tether patch zip files on D2G. You have to use the RadioComm method I referred to later in the thread.

Please tell me you weren't trying to flash a nandroid backup?

I didn't feel like retyping these instructions so I pulled them from another post I made. I've deleted parts that were irrelevant but not fixed grammer. Sorry. Its 5:40am. Note: these are instructions I wrote to help someone else with an entirely different problem but a different version was available with the download of thr nandroid backups. You really need to read instructions.

And finally download the Stock 2.3.3 NANDroid backup here - http://www.mediafire.com/?weataw4w7v1anl4

Once you're in CWM use the volume buttons to highlight and the power button to select the highlighted option. Now go into mounts and storage and mount USB storage. Unzip the Stock 2.3.3 file to the root of your SDcard (or just move the unzipped folder, all of it exactly as it unzips there). Eject the drive from your computer, and then unmount it on the phone. Now go to backup and restore and choose restore and choose the backup in there. This will replace all of your internal storage with completely bone stock android 2.3.3

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Beany69:
You should really read all the threads on here about WP7. If you did you would know that you need HSPL 2.08 on your device for magldr to run.

The radio you have is fine, but you need to install an older stock ROM to downgrade your SPL first.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] Switchbitch:
Sorry if this has been covered, search aint working just now.

Indoors, I put my Hero next to my girlfriend's X10 mini and opened GPS status on both phones. Within a few seconds, her phone had found and locked on to a satellite. A few seconds later, she had 6 satellites in view and a pretty accurate GPS lock. Several minutes later, my Hero could still see no satellites at all.

Why is my GPS reception so sh*t compared to hers? If I'm outdoors I have no problems at all but it seems pretty lame to have that much of a difference between our 2 devices. I've downloaded and installed GPS fixes to no avail. Does the Hero just have a crappy receiver? Is there a radio you can recommend to fix this?

I've always had issues with the Hero indoors.. even next to windows! I've tried a number of different radios with no luck. I'll just chalk it up to the x10 being a newer device.

Hey everyone-

I've been doing a bunch of searching lately for an easy-to-use and convenient application for streaming videos from my pc to android device (like airplay for the iphone). And I can't seem to find one specific app that makes it simple and easy, they all seem to be a pain in the ass. I know this question has been asked before, but not for a couple months, so what in your opinion is the best application and/or method for streaming content from a pc to an android device? Thanks in advance for any help.

[General Topics] ErOR22:
I use File Expert as a file manager/explorer and I mapped my computer under it's network tab, then when I select a video I use VPlayer to play it in. Works perfectly!

Every other way I tried before this required the video to download before watching, but this way I can stream any video directly.

You will need to setup your video/movies/etc folders on PC to be shared with proper permissions. Easiest to just share the whole external HDD.

[General Topics] PotentChili:
I'd definitely give RockPlayer a go. It has both hardware and software decoding and it works with TVersity!
[General Topics] ErOR22:
Same way, through the file explorer. You just need to share your music on pc and connect to it.

My Desire HD came with DNLA client software and when I go into the music program I can stream in there directly from my WMP library, that's probably the easiest way but that would vary with different phones.

But, the one thing that won't play are ANY of my videos, which are mostly xvid-encoded .avi files, which I'm not sure skifta supports (as it uses the dlna classification). Any suggestions?
[General Topics] aussiechris:
If you have a windows PC you can easily setup windows media player to stream via dlna. Just google "windows media player dlna". If you are on mac or linux, just substitute for OSX or your linux distro and the word dlna for a bunch of options. Once it's up and going you can use the dlna app mentioned earlier or if you are lucky enough to have a SGS like me, you can use Samsung All Share to stream. I have used this since I got my phone and it's working like a charm!
