nope, not on the Imagio. There is a thread open in Development & Hacking > Windows Mobile Application and Games.
Seems like its not working for a lot of people yet.
Bing works fine on my Imagio. That said, yesterday Bing had an outage...so you may have experienced that.
There is a known issue on the Bing app where it will only pick the first address if your contact has multiple addresses.
Hope this helps,
CB
So you have the new Bing with the picture background working?

which one did you download, didnt work for me.
the new bing sucks.
No...didn't realize they actually released a new update. And the new update states that "you're phone is not currently supported." Personally, as one of the few new WM6.5 phones, I am stunned that it isn't supported.

Install it to see what it looks like then uninstall it and reinstall the old version. The new version is horrible and looks like a Beta 1 version of the last version. It's so unusable that it's not worth installing.
not installing
I tried to do the udpate and Bing says cannot recognize the phone (or some similiar message) and then launches the browser and lets me download bing.cab. i tried to run bing.cab and it says cannot install in this phone.
Are you on Verizon? Search a bit, it is well known that Verizon's phones are not letting the new Bing install. Not just the Imagio, but ALL Verizon phones.
Verizon and Bing issues
Hey bud, you're right. It appears that others on the Verizon network are having issues with the new Bing upload. That said, it appears that the updates to Bing aren't being regarded very highly. So maybe it's for the best at the moment.
Hey guys,
I just got my T-Mobile Mytouch 3G Fender edition last night and it's been brilliant apart from this one bug mentioned in title.
One of the main reasons I wanted this phone was to use an Android based phone and then to use the integrated Google voice app. However, unfortunately everytime I launch the app it crashes and "Force Quit" option comes up.
Does anybody know of a workaround for this? If so, please let me/other users know. Thanks!
All help is much appreciated.
I would also like that, it seems to happen with a few roms.
Check out this thread http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6503 The fix is to install the Voice 0.2 apk. I tried it and Google Voice is not force closing.
Yea its pretty much a widespread issue with all Fenders and all MT3G v1.2, and currently the only work-around (hardly a 'fix') is to downgrade to 0.2, 0.3 is still broken and has been for several weeks now.
How do I download and use the "[email protected]" app from USAA bank from outside the US? It's free but I need to get a legitimate copy of it for obvious reasons. I emailed USAA and did the obvious Google searches before posting this, but I am getting nowhere. I am making the assumption that they are limiting it to the US market (I'm in the UK). I am running a compatible version of Android, so I should see it, but I don't. Here are my basic questions:
1) If I got the .apk somehow and installed it here in the UK, would it work from here?
2) Would using a wifi connection with it be different than a mobile network?
3) If #2 is yes, could I configure my router to use a US proxy?
I really like the idea of taking a picture of a check with my G1, and depositing it that way. If anyone has figured this out please let me know how it works. Thanks.

These are assumptions, not answers:
Most likely it would work from UK in any form you try to use (WiFi/network). I would assume since USAA will have clients outside of the US for obvious reasons there would probably be no check that you're on a US carrier.
If you're having trouble getting the apk, I could download it from the market and send it to you. Send me a PM and I can email it to you.
Here it is. Hope it works from abroad!
Sweeet!
Thanks, r4d14n7. I appreciate the help. I just tried it over wifi and it worked no problem. Haven't tried it over 3G but I bet that works too. I was using the regular [email protected] before, but this is even better.
** Mods if you can change the title of the post to "[email protected] .apk outside the US?" it would help others searching for this same issue. I'm a noob and I wasn't able to type it out correctly...thanks.

What phone and version are you using, because I DL'd and tried to install, but it keeps giving me "aaplication not installed".
I'm using Sprint HERO, but version 2.1, so I should be good to go, thanks.
forty01 I'm using the latest stable Cyanogen build (4.2.15.1) on a HTC Dream/T-Mobile G1. I downloaded the .apk to my desktop, then transferred it to the memory card on the phone over USB, and disconnected the cable. Then I just navigated to the .apk file in Astro file manager and opened it (touch the .apk file in Astro and then touch "open app manager"). I've got the phone's SD card partitioned with the apps running off that (apps to SD). You probably did the same thing but I'm covering all the basics here to avoid any confusion. Hope you get it working. If I left anything out here just ask for help again.
Yess i have the htc eris and can not find the mobile banking app for regions can any one help??
That was downloaded from the market just before I posted it (10Mar2010). I'm running a G1, but I'm not sure that makes any difference. I'm a little noobish when it comes to apks
I overlooked something obvious here but I'm learning. I just tried the "Market Enabler" and now I see the USAA app from overseas. That's got to be the simplest way to grab it, and keep it updated.
Can I get this to work on Cupcake? I'm running the Aloysius ROM on a CDMA Hero. The software version says 1.56.651.2, and the .apk above won't install.

Not on Cupcake (Android 1.5), it runs on Donut (Android 1.6) or higher.
From the USAA website... "The Android app is free and available now for devices running the Android operating system version 1.6 or later."
You will have to upgrade to a newer version of Android before installing. When you do, grab the USAA app directly from the market. Use the Market Enabler (search for it) to get the app if you are outside the USA. Good luck.
Reviving this thread. I have a GSM Hero (U.K, unlocked, not Orange) running Android 2.1 and still cant find this USAA app in the market. Anyone know why?
** Update August 2011, I removed the attachment, it's a year old. The only correct way to do this from outside the US is to root, use Market Enabler, and get it in the Marketplace.
Here's the newest version of the app, attached below. (Removed)
First thing you need is a file browser to navigate to the .apk, once it's on your phone's memory card. Find a file browser in the market if you don't have one yet. You will have to enable installing third-party sources, your phone will prompt you if you haven't already. The problem with this method is that you can't update the app, and you have to trust my attachment as being safe.
A better way is to root your phone, and install Market Enabler (Google it). Requires root access, but it works perfectly. You can use it over wifi, 3G, whatever. You can use it to browse a lot of different markets. Plus, you can download the USAA app directly from the market, and update it that way, too.
Post a reply or PM me if that doesn't work out for you. Also, email USAA and ask them to make it available outside the US. I did, and they aren't ready to do it yet. Silly, considering who their members are. Just my opinion.

I agree with everything you said. Did you actually talk to USAA about that? Yeah, I went looking for Market Enabler etc, but you need root (as you said). I can't find a reasonable guide for rooting a stock 2.1 GSM Europen Hero (unbranded/unlocked). Is there one?

Yep, I emailed and then mentioned it to the phone rep when I called about something unrelated.

This looks promising. [theunlockr.com] Third line for "unbranded European users"
One thing I didn't think to mention yet is to try something like App Brain. I haven't used it yet but it's pretty popular on this and other android forums. I think you can set up an account on the website, load their app on your rooted or un-rooted phone, and load apps that way. Worth a try.

Thanks so much r4d14n7. I was having problems getting the app from the market as well. I live in Belgium.
But now that I got the app up and working, I tried to use [email protected] and it is telling me it cannot find my location. I have GPS and wifi on and both the maps application and my web browser on my vibrant are working. Any suggestions?
tpmaxwell2 I've never seen it try to get my location. I don't think it needs it. USAA is just limiting the download availability to the US. Once you get the .apk, anyone can use it. I'm using it no problem from the UK and it never switches on my GPS, nor is there any delay launching the app. It just comes right up. I posted an updated version in post #14, scroll up a little to see it. I've got that version running on both my rooted G1 and a stock, unrooted Desire from here in Europe. If you try it and still get location errors or other problems, post here again so we can figure out the problem.

On the version I just downloaded I cant even get into [email protected] without getting this error: "your location is required to use [email protected] please enable location services on your device and retry."
So I enabled wifi location and the app worked! Thanks so much!!
FYI...
I ran across this thread after trading in my iPhone 3gs for a HTC Desire HD. I went into the market to download the USAA app, and it couldn't be found. As suggested above, I installed market enabled, set as a t-mobile phone, then searched again. The USAA app showed up in the search, I installed it, and it works fine. BTW, I'm in the UK as well. Hope this helps for anyone else having the same problem.
hello, i tried searching for this problem but didnt find it.
my phone is working fine except for an issue with google navigation.
the phones supposed to give you voice instructions but theres no sound at all even with it maxed out.
is there supposed to be a voice or is my maps screwed up?
i am running...
superd 1.9.3 w/ wg kernal
death spl
that new radio
latest maps available installed
new info
i put fastest on my g1 for fun while waiting for new superd. i had a chance to test out navigation and to my surprise i got talked to by robot voice lady.
will have to wait for superd before saying this was just a minor glitch.
maybe you said something to upset it?
i think on first load, it asks to download a speech app from the market...don't remember the name, perhaps it is the TTS service (text to speech)?
i have both tts and svox installed from google translate.
that program talks to me with the ladies robot voice just fine.
just can't seem to figure it out for maps.

try this: uninstall google maps and install it agian
don't know if this will work, but reinstalling something usually solves most of my problems
Is there a good talking GPS app for the Eris?
I'm guessing you have 1.5 installed because otherwise I'm guessing you would know about 2.1 having navigate which is very nice, but then I've never had a gps system so I have nothing to compare navigate to.

To be honest I'm not sure if it's 1.5 or 2.1. I'm not tech savvy at all. How do I tell which one it is? I have Google Maps on mine.
If you don't know which one you have then you still have 1.5, the only way to have 2.1 is to install a leaked or rooted version ..... but if you are not up to that VZW does claim that 2.1 for the Eris will be officially out "soon" at which point Google Maps adds Navigation with Voice....

Thank you very much. When the 2.1 comes out will I have to get Verizon to upgrade the software for me?
No your phone will receive an over the air update and simply ask you to go ahead and install it. Then you will have 2.1 and google navigation.
