Awesome
Glad they kept it free. I really thought Microsoft was going to end up charging for this.
nice update...thnx
Awesome. I un-installed and re-downloaded this yesterday and never noticed it was the non beta. Good deal!
hmm.. Never knew it was out of BETA. Thanks!
I installed the new CAB without having unistalled the beta... now I seem to have both, but for the "live" of me I can;t find the EXE for the beta version. Anyone know where it is?
Guess it depends on if you installed it on the Storage card or Device. Look in the "Program Files" folder under "Windows Live Search" or just "Search" which is how it shows up under the Start Menu / Programs folder.
They added one of the features I was looking for. The ability to add looked-up items to contacts. Great. You can also SMS a look-up. And it seems faster. Better than the beta...
Device "Search" missing after Beta install
I'm not sure but it seems that this app replaces the devices local search app. Have anyone of you experienced this? The local device search was useful at times. Does anyone know how to get this back with Live Search installed?
thx

Hi,
I have two questions regarding my Touch Diamond.
1st) When we look at the program tab we get 2 sections allowing (3x3) 9 shortcuts to a program. I would like to know it this tab can be modified to store more shortcuts
2nd) At HTC.com there is a new ROM update. When I look at my ROM version, it says: 1.37.172.3 NLD (I suppose this is an older version).
I was wondering if installing this update would delete my default programs.
My phone is from Vodafone and has by default certain preinstalled programs installed by Vodafone on it. If I were to lose these programs, I would lose access to certain features that I use
Hope someone can answer this for my.
Cheers!
2) Yeah, unfortunately flashing the ROM will erase all your settings/installed programs.
1) Sorry, I don't know how to answer this one.
2)Yes. With the new ROM, your phone will lose all the installed programs. Contact Vodafone and try to know if they are releasing this update with their programs already instaled.
On the other hand, you can try to save all your programs with an application called "Sashimi" that saves your programs in order to restore them after a ROM upgrade.

1st) yes... you can... but unfortunately I can't remember how. try a search, but I was reading that it's very simple to do...
Thank for you answers all.
Pretty weird that there is a rom update, but that my service provider does not support this. Iow I am forced to keep the current version.
@ Leopardone: That is great, too bad that when searching these forum on 'Program tab' it gives too much results to accurately find something.

Actually, you can't. What you can do, is add more buttons. Unfortunately, you can't put any link in those which makes the whole procedure rather useless.
I thought there was a registry tweak to add a few. I'll check into it.
EDIT: Nope, above poster is right.
There's a registry tweak around here that shortens the distance between icons and fits more icons to Programs panel. Search for it.
I've been waiting awhile for this and its finally here. Just wanted to let everyone know. Working well on my tilt so far.

Sweet.. Was wondering when they were going to release this... Installed but says cant uninstall the other googlemaps install..
Thanks for the update on this...
Finally!
This is the coolest thing to hit my Tilt in weeks! I can't wait to show it to my wife, so she can roll her eyes at me
I found a cab file and got it working. the site seems to have the .jad file
It works fine on my Tilt (and it uninstalled the previous version).
Why doesn't Google Maps Mobile have an auto-update function?
has anyone in the UK managed to get the Street View feature working. Ive tried to get some street views of london but I just get an error message saying "street view not available" :-(
no more cut and paste?
dunno if anyone else noticed but there is no more cut and paste with this release / sans iPhone functionality. I may have been in the minority of folks to actually use this feature, especially with goecaching and being able to just cut and paste the coords into the search bar and go..
Anyone know if its possible to have different versions of the same app installed on the same device? I tried renaming the google directory but that disables the app..
Very very nice. That street view is pretty cool.
I have installed this but cannot seem to be able to get street view... is this not available in the UK?

My installed version appears to be newer.
Select Help > About/Info page ... mine shows version 2.3.2 build (#2375) what version does this display in the same screen ?
mine just says 2.3.09... no build version??
downloaded directly from googles web site
mine just says 2.3.09... no build version??

Links to cab file
The cab files are here:
http://m.google.com/maps/download?dc=gmm
http://m.google.com/gmm/gmm.jad?dc=gmm&ver=v2.3.2
Use PIE to download. If you use Skyfire or a pc you will get the .jad file.
About damn time they released this for WM. I hate playing catchup to the iphone, but since they just beat WM market share...
What is new in the v2.3.2??

2.3.2 means you're reading it wrong, or it's not the same thing. Sure you're not looking at the Java version or something?

I think your right, i downloaded and reinstalled the app again and just got 2.3.09 where as the .jad verson is 2.3.2
I also tested the street view out, nothing seems to work in the uk, just says street view is unavailable, but if i navigate over to the US it brings up images...
Saw some nice pictures of New York
Hi,

new google maps hangs
I don't know whether any of u guys have the same prob that i have.Recently, i download new google maps,turning on my wifi and using the maps.Then i went out (no wifi or hotspot available) open the map and it tries to connect to "something" so i try totap on the gps but it just hang.I rech home and try again by offying the the wifi and it hang.So the conclusion is i believe i need to turn on the wifi in order to use the map.Does anyone solve the prob?
Installing it now.
http://www.pointui.com/
major fail...I just installed it and nothing happens ...i see no shortcut in programs folder nothing in the today setting....and I'm not the only one:
http://community.pointui.com/topic/nothing-happens
*update*
Not cool...I choose my device for the install and it instaleld into my strage card in \Storage Card\Programs\Home2
The app runs fine but I have to say it kinda looks like crap on my tilt...I'll roll with it for the rest of the day to see how funtional its is....but they better fix that install issue

It works fine here. It installed to my phone storage, not my card. Went into the "Today" settings and enabled PointUI. No problems here so far.

I choose my device...and it went to my storage card...I had to run it from the apps program folder as there was no entry in the today settings...even after running the app. I'm going to reinstall and see what happens
needs to be manually started and then works fine...
I reinstalled and it looks like it did what it was supposed to do...installed into my device not storage card and the option to select it in the today setting is there. But this is a definite issue as other people have experience the same thing...check the forum link I posted earlier if you have doubts
I installed it, and uninstalled it 10 min later. It worked the way it was supposed too, but much like everything else I install on the phone, the ease of use is not there so I end up uninstalling it shortly thereafter.

I completely agree and amd close to uninstalling it myself. While it is a much improved app over the 1st version there is much to be desired in the functionality dept.
I decided to give it couple of days... so far the bast combo was m2d + standard today(with today agenda)...
awkay guys.. I am thinking the same thing. while it looks somehow promising with great potential, imho M2D is still better in it's looks/friendliness.
however I'm going to wait with final judgement for pro version, as this whole applet thing may become something big in the future. anyway - it is nicely coded, but qvga gfx needs to be redone.
I agree to all.... M2D is much more user friendly... I used pointui 1.5 up until M2d came out... PointUI 2.0 goes in the backward direction... It doesnt even stay upto par with Winterface... I understand its beta, but I dont like the way it handles stuff... I loved the way you could scroll in 1.5, man i wish entire windows wud scroll that that.. 2.0 scroll is not similar to all other scroll which ruins its originality... Too similar to other GUIs now :-/... It seems to be made more for the corporate user rather than the personal user...
Yea i installed it on my storage card at first, didn't work.
TO INSTALL:
1. Download it, of course.
2. Run the cab, install it to DEVICE
3. Go to your windows mobile settings, go to the Today options, go to the Items tab, and then uncheck all of your other today items and only leave the Pointui 2 item checked.
4. Enjoy, if possible.
i just installed it without problems on my phone storage.
i love the way you can quickly add / remove applets and the configuration via xml files for the wether / location on the world map. i'm running Athine OS 6.5 ME edition.
I was really looking forward to using this. For weeks i have checked the site in quiet anticipation of home2. After being a user of 1.51 and enjoying its features, my hopes were high for 2. However, it has failed to impress. Maybe it is just me, but where can I find battery information with home2? At least, 1.51 had a battery icon. Furthermore, my own battery icon has been removed from my title bar. There is a lack of customization in home2 that would have been nice to see. I am far from impressed by this.
Yeah a bit disappointed here too, will wait and see how it develops. It can't hold a candle to the BellUI that they did for Bell which is a shame. Also, is there any way to configure which apps it uses for mail/sms/contacts/calendar/alarm etc? I really thought they'd make those easily configurable this time.
whats up with the "select city", not all cities are there, and when i tried selecting chicago, it told me that it was in africa! i think you guys should wait a little before downloading this app, it looks great but it needs more work.
Hello. I have been searching the internet, without any luck though of finding the programs i want.
First, i want a program, like ShopSavvy is for the Android, where i can use it on my touch pro to scan barcodes of products and find the best price.
Second, i am wondering if there is a way to have Google Street View on the touch pro. I have already seen KDKobes Google Maps Street View 2.3.1, from our forum. I was wondering though if there is an "official" or "fully working" program, as in KDJobes program unfortunately, location-data support and GPS integration aren’t working with this version of Google Maps.
Third, i want a program, like I-phone has, for Drinks (bartender?), same cool skins and graphics environment maybe?
Fourth, again like I-phone has a program where you record a song on the phone and then it goes through the internet and finds you possible matches.
Please, bare with me, as i a m new and maybe i didn't have enough luck or "easiness" finding these type of programs i want. Yes maybe i saw some "looking like them but weren't afterwards the programs i wanted, cause their functionality wasn't after all what i was searching for and was mislead by their Title Name.
So if you please know any "freeware/ or have to buy" programs that are exaclty as the one's i have described please feel free to post and tell me.
Thank you very much in advance,
Chris
let's see
1. barcode readers:
i-nigma barcode reader
QuickMark 3.3
Aura - but donno if this still works.....
2. Street view is officially supported by the latest Google Maps
http://www.google.com/mobile/default/maps.html
3. didn't heard of such a program for wm
4. i know a program it's called Music ID
hope that helps try to search harder next time
search diamond beer for a drink app that turns your phone into a glass of alcohol , if you mean a bartender then just do more searching also the site Fuzemobility.com is now your best friend go there all the time look at everything there . if you still haven changed ROMS on your phone i suggest you go get NRG's new winmo6.5 build 3.0 ROM . it has alot of improvements over the stock ROM , anymore questions just ask me
Is there an app that uses the GPS to track how much you've cycled and your speed etc? I think such apps exist for the iPhone but I'm looking for something for windows mobile.
gotta love fuzemobility lol

theres an app called track my run floating somewhere between here and fuzemobility.com
Just giving you a heads up don't go looking for everything that the Iphone has for your phone. Most of the time it will not be there. on to you questions
Shop savvy is a great program. Our closest thing is "Barcoroma"
Google street view. I use google maps from NRG'z Rom and I can get street view on it.
Drinks IDK your on you own for this one
Song recognition. Well try out Music ID works great for me.

Where does everyone go to get there the PPC software?
I go to http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php, although its not complete list and new releaase of an application can take a couple of days to make it to thier site. I find the site easy to navigate and search. The catagories and rating system help for filtering.
about the drink mix
i suggest watching this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=496880&highlight=drinks
perhaps something will be done.
Its a program updating program (lol i know that sounds funny) that was built into one of the roms I had installed...It would allow you to download new versions of programs straight from your phone...Ive been looking for the past couple days for it and havent been able to find the cab file for it. If someone could show me where I could find it that would be great!

There are a couple of programs I know of that it could be - search on 'apptodate' and the other is called 'Device Update' it's developed by CRCinAU... might come up on a search.... It's in the ROM I'm using, but I don't know how to extract for you - sorry!
Good luck
