Hi all,

Does anyone know why WP7 Maps doesn't show Reviews for local POI's (retaurant's, etc)?

It finds them fine and even shows their star rating along with how many people have reviewed it, but when going onto the "reviews" tab, it shows "No reviews for <business>"?

Or is it only me this is happening to? :confused:
[Windows Phone 7 General] Audio:
Can anyone at least confirm it's happening for them too?
[Windows Phone 7 General] webwalk®:
hmm i dont see any POIs on my bing in phone.. no matter where i look
[Windows Phone 7 General] Audio:
well not POI's as such, but when you search for a restuarant for example, you can go to the restaurant's "Profile" within Mas, which gives you it's phone number, opening times, website, etc (provided they have a business profile to view), it's this "Profile" that should show ratings, but even though the front page tells you there are ratings there, the "reviews" page on that profile shows "No reviews for <restaurant>"
[Windows Phone 7 General] doministry:
I would love to help but in my country Bing doesn't even perform search for main streets, so no luxury of this kind for me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Audio:
Bump. Sorry guys but it's really starting to piss me off cos I don't know if it's a prob with me/the phone or everyone in UK.
[Windows Phone 7 General] munkeyphyst:
Don't know why, but it's not just you. I see the same thing on my ATT Focus in the Chicago area.

About page shows:

Rating

***** (13 reviews)

Reviews page shows:

"No reviews for ..."

the same is true for every business I check.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PG2G:
I just checked a couple different places in Los Angeles and I get the same results.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Audio:
Thanks for replying munkeyphyst/PG2G. It's good to know it's not just me finally!
[Windows Phone 7 General] Strike_Eagle:
Same problem here.

I do remember that Bing used to have the "location review"

Like at Ritzville, i searched "movie" and it located the "Ritz Movie Theater" for me (with one review). I clicked on that review and internet explorer opened for me a website that contain info about the theater and review about it (That website is not a part of Bing or a part of Microsoft). I remember i did it before i had no no-do installed on my HD7.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marshall-sky:
hello

I purchased a Samsung Galaxy s i9000 4 months ago

At the first the battery was strong so I was charging it once every two days

I am surprised of topics, which says that the battery is weak

But about a month ago the battery started to weaken and I became charging once a day

but now I have to charge it twice a day

I tried with advanced task killer and setCPU programs but nothing has changed

also I,make lighting as little as possible, and the type of network put it only GSM

I was put lag Fix, so I said maybe its the Reason so I delete lag Fix and did not change anything

what is the solution with the battery?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lenrek:
You can try install JuiceDefender.

The least you use the phone for data connection, the longer the phone battery can last.

Read the battery FAQ posts .

Bump charge the battery .

Turn off unnecessary services .

Set WiFi to sleep when screen turns off.

Buy a spare battery cheap enough .

Turn OFF the phone when not in use you dont leave a car running day and night .

Charging twice a day drain battery wipe battery stats and charge fully .

I just bought the HD2, I am not so much of a audiophile however, I find the HTC's earphone to be of low quality and very uncomfortable because there is no soft part.

Did you guys buy an alternative headphone for this phone? I am thinking about klipsch S4i which has really good score on cnet and apparently can be used used to take calls.

do you think S4i is an good upgrade or are there better options.
[HD2 General] FinancialWar:

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lenn:
This is a Poll.

What a Gen8 Device you have?

I Have a A101 (8GB)

:D
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daveid:
A43 user here, perfect pocket size (I was a little worried about it being too big, but the thinness makes up for the larger size). My other pocket houses a Google Nexus One - I needed a device that wasn't a phone, and that didn't have a camera (covered with a sticker nicely) for work purposes. The A43 fit the bill nicely.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donn123:
A43 - I wanted something Android without a contract. The A43 is what was available. I like it but find the touch screen horrible, especially for typing which makes using it as a pocket computer at work problematic.
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
Well the USB port on my Nexus is dead. Have wiped, reflashed, taken sim and memory out, tried charging from wall, from car, and from computer and nothing. It doesn't mount on the mac.

So I was pretty resigned to losing it. But I need a phone, so took it to Vodafone store, who have sent it off for repair.

Thing is I forgot to flash the stock ROM back onto it, so they are getting a rooted MIUI ROM, with unlocked Bootloader.

I suspect I am going to get a call in the next few days saying they can't do anything with it.

Hohum
[Nexus One General] Hollow.Droid:
Not necessarily. If the engineer investigates the internals of the device and can see the MicroUSB port is dead then it really shouldn't matter what ROM you're running. However having it repaired by Vodafone is a completely different matter than HTC, just wait and see!
[Nexus One General] Dirk:
As a Vodafone customer with an unlocked Bootloader myself, i'm interested in seeing how this turns out!
[Nexus One General] skytcam:
also intrested as a vodafone customer to see if they fix for you . good luck
[Nexus One General] heedlessmunkey:
I wouldn't worry to much, mines been sent to htc twice with no issues. First time I received it back with a locked boot loader and the 2nd time they replaced the hardware leaving the custom rom. Doubt vodafone would even notice
[Nexus One General] andynx1:
Can't you send it directly to HTC? I'm also in the uk, but bought my phone directly from Google. I think I have a 2 year warranty.
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
Well we'll soon see, just got a text to say it's been received.
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
VOdafone just rang, to say that they've diagnosed that the USB port is not working (which is awfully clever, asI had told them that).

They then said they are now sending it on to HTC! So not sure what the point of sending it to them was.

Still, no-one mentioned it was rooted or bootloader unlocked.
[Nexus One General] b0dge:
+1 for interest.

I am too a UK Vodafone customer. :)
[Nexus One General] Dirk:
Lol, i wonder how long it took them to work it out, especially after being told what the problem was. :)

So it seems that Vodafone either don't care about the mods or just don't check in the first place. Either way they are sending returned devices off to HTC for repair and many people say that HTC have honoured warranties regardless of custom ROMs etc. Sounds like you'll get a good result.

EDIT: There is one reason that i can see for sending to Vodafone rather than direct to HTC and that is the postage cost. Vodafone will send a prepaid Special Delivery pouch, or in some cases a courier if it's a device swap. Unless i'm wrong you would have to stump up the postage cost yourself if you are sending to HTC.
[Nexus One General] saffad:
I cracked my Nexus one screen some time ago (I'm on T-Mobile sim only contract), all I did was send it to HTC directly and they fixed it with no problems...I guess next time just send it to HTC directly..

and postage is paid for by HTC, they send you a prepaid UPS label which you print and stick on. Instructions I got in my e-mail
[Nexus One General] Hollow.Droid:
Do you mind saying how much they charged? Just in case something happens down the line :p
[Nexus One General] saffad:
Yeah, so they had to replace the digitizer and wasn't covered under warranty (well because i dropped it lol) cost me a crazy £105 ! oh well, the service and delivery was efficient got it all done within 5 days.
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
I am informed that it will be back at the shop tomorrow so I will soon find out what happened. i can at least assume seeing as they haven't said otherwise, it's been fixed, and free of charge as they wouldn't repair it before informing me of the cost.

I suspect it will come back with a front facing camera Gingerbread, or even Ice-Cream, and some sort of light sabre capabilities.......
[Nexus One General] creativedevil:
Good luck...
[Nexus One General] Dirk:
Result!

I imagine it will come back in a solid gold, diamond encrusted shell with sapphire crystal glass screen and the ability to cook a nice breakfast for you.

Failing that it will be nice if it just works again and you can't beat free for a price :D
[Nexus One General] levithesheep:
I'm itching for an update on this thread =] i really am quite interested in rooting/unlocking my Nexus One but from past experience phone warranties have saved me a lot of money!!
[Nexus One General] Hollow.Droid:
You can root without unlocking it, that's what I did. Should I have any problems I'll just stick a stock ROM and recovery on there and it'll be as stock as the day I got it :)
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
Well I got it back, flashed with 2.2.1 and it's now S-on (is that a locked bootloader?)

Radio is 32.50.00.32U5.12.00.08

Kernel 2.6.32.9-ge8111ea htc-kernel@u18000-Build-149 #1

Now I've got to go and relearn how to unlock/root it!
[Nexus One General] Rusty!:
They're meant to be S-ON, unlocking the bootloader doesn't change that.
[Nexus One General] ianst28:
i've had 2 replaced by vodafone in the last 5 months 1 that dropped all network signal and wouldnt find voda

and 1 with the power button failure ............... both were rooted and had custom rom's on (the signal failure i managed to throw a stock rom on) both have been replaced by voda under warranty with no questions about roms
[Nexus One General] dumb donkey:
How much did they end up charging you?
[Nexus One General] Lumsdoni:
Mine was free.

Massive thanks to XDA site though. What a great feeling to get my phone, use superoneclick, root, nandroid the stock ROM incase, and then restore my old nandroid and back to how I was, only this time rootd, but with a locked bootloader!

Props to all.

Manager: So it's a tablet

Me: No it's a phone

I also had one person that I just couldn't convince that it was a phone until I made a call. Even then they seemed suspicious like it could have just been an elaborate ruse.

Same here. I could never be happy with my Streak. Everytime I whip out the streak everybody around me wants see it and of course ask if I would be interested in trading..

Tried out the new nookie froyo and overrall it runs great. Lower quadrants but not really a big deal.

For some reason when I use a browser and start typing in a field (for instance a password field for my colleges website), it lags incredibly slow. Its almost as if the keyboard is lagging, but this isnt a problem in other fields, such as the URL.

Such a big problem I had to uninstall back to eclair.

Installed with Iomonsters, clockwork from the market, used stock kernel, OC kernel, nothing made a difference. Disabling haptic feedback made a small help, but still unusable.

Anyone else getting this problem?
[Nook Color General] ChrisJ951:
You know, I really have no idea why this happens, but I had a similar experience. The first few hours I was running Froyo 0.6.6 it was kinda slow and laggy. But after a few reboots and couple of hours of running it was extremely fast. So all I can suggest is try putting up with it for a day or so and rebooting it every couple of hours. For me it runs extremely smoothly and much faster than eclair now.
[Nook Color General] tangomonky:
Going to try. Ugh why cant I just leave this thing alone. ;)
[Nook Color General] spamftw:
Just keep using it, it will speed up after a few reboota
[Nook Color General] tangomonky:
I am about 12 hours in and at least 6 reboots now and still the problem is unresolved. Seems to be exasperated on webpages with large images in the background.

All in all I think .59 felt alot more stable then 6.6 and 6.7. Think I will either go back to eclair or try Honeycomb till a better froyo comes out.

edit: if any of you other guys wants to try, goto atlas.valenciacc.edu while viewing a full webpage. Both stock browser, skyfire, and dolphin hd share the problem. I cant easily type in the UN and PW fields.
