Request: Google Mobile Apps

I would like to use the Blackberry or iPhone google mobile app in my Fuze. Is it possible, can somebody port it?

you are talking about Google Maps Street View. Just go to google.com/gmm on your mobile phone browser and you can download. It has been available for a couple weeks.

if you just want a nice page with icons as links for the services you could easily make a web page, store it on your phone and and set it as the home page for your web browser.

m.google.com is a simple page with lots of nice links to all google services.
Maybe juanikiki could be a bit more specific on what they need.

OK here is what I'm talknig about.

i don't understand what you mean at all by that. the mobile version of google is made using HTML or more accurately, XHTML mobile profile.

sorry man. this is new to me. when I saved a mobile page using opera, it is saved in xml format. the edotor that Im using can't read it so I changed the .xml for .html and then I'm able to edit it. But when I save the .html file in the phone its not mobile anymore. And changing the .html for .xml doesn't work.
Thanks for any help that you can give me, again sorry if I'm anoying.

[Q] Can I use Skype on 3 in unofficial ROM

Hi, I am in the UK and with 3. My galaxy S came with the Skype on 3 and it can call phone numbers for free. (You still need Skype credits.) I think the way it works is it actually dials a 3's service number and then you get redirect to the phone number you want to call.
My question is:
1) If I flash to other ROM, can still use Skype on 3 for free? I make a lot of international calls by Skype...
2) Can I flash back to 3's official ROM?
Cheers.

there is no skype for android yet
at least not officially
the next best thing like skype + video VoiceIP is Fring

I hate you so much right now
Does it have video call?
I tried fring and even the voice was a disaster...

voiceIP only it seems
also it FORCES YOU TO TURN OFF WIFI so that you can only use GPRS/EDGE/3G to use skype
so that was the deal, so that you can't get away of their data plans
IMO it's useless if you can't use it on WiFi
i'm going back to Fring for Video to Video chats

Is there any trick to use video chat (besides fring) on yahoo/gmail/skype with a PC?

Same for me in South Africa on 3G

it'll only work if you are using the "3 network" from UK
you can install and run it, but it wont let you connect to make a call

I cannot transfer the application to my phone, it says that the file format cannot be transferred, is there any other software I have to upload to my PC before downloading the application? I'm on 3 Ireland and they haven't release skype for this phone here yet. Also Phone is on vodafone but unlocked, therefore I do not have 3 Ireland d=software installed yet
Thanks

you need another browser, like SkyFire for example

Hi guys, I've one question for who is using skype on three..Did you notice delays when someone is texting you? i mean, i get like 30 50 minutes delay on each text...is that normal?

Marketplace Browser and Downloader for Windows Phone 7

Zune is a wonderful application for finding and installing Windows Phone 7 applications on your phone. The other alternative is to use Market Place application in WP7 handset. If have an HTC HD2 which doesn't support WP7 officially, but thanks to XDA Developers and DarkForcesTeam, I am running WP7 on this handset with no issues.
Initially, when I upgraded, I couldn't connect to Windows Market Place and browse or install applications because of Windows Live Services Registration (which I later resolved). So, I wrote an app to resolve my problem.
What this application does is, that it allows to browse for free apps on the marketplace, and download them to your hard disk which you can later use to deploy to your handset manually (developer unlocked phone or ChebronWP7 unlocked phone). The interface is pretty simple and serves the purpose. The only pending thing is automatically deploying the downloaded application to the device, which I will leave for a later date (anyone to help me out with this).

Oooh noooo!! Same here...so sad, happily downloaded lot of promising apps...none of them can be installed.
EDIT: The first app listed in the first post is claiming that the device has to be unlocked. The second app listed in the post above is claiming that the app hasn´t a valid license.

Any ideas?

marketplace
It seems that PPCBOY has something done right on his 7008 rom wp7 my hd2 has the full use of marketplace and zune so you might want to check it out your activation key will still work

[Q] WhatsApp for WP7?

ddoes anyone know if there was/is/will ever be a whatsapp program for WP7? i used to use this a lot when i had android on my WP7 and i do miss it. the website mentions that it is cross-platform, but doesnt mention anything about wp7 (or windows mobile for that matter) i have read a few articles about adress book integration being the issue, but may other things such as whatsapp not having any wp7 developers, and a beta versions with no contact integration, but i dont trust any of the sources
so i am wondering if the good people at XDA can clear things up

According to the developers of WhatsApp there are no plans to support WP7 until various aspects of the OS are changed/updated. It's to do with the way apps are run on the OS.
Because WP7 apps are run in a 'sandbox' style environment WhatsApp cannot access the WP7 built in contacts app etc so the developers are waiting for that level of functionality before creating the app.

that was what i had read elsewhere. there were some suggestions about pulling the contacts direct from windows live via a http request, but not being a developer i dont know how this would work. i guess i will just have to wait and see

The Mango update should sort that all out, so i guess we all just have to wait.

Yeah we waiting Mango and Whatapp both
after that its boost wp7 market share

I just saw on the Whatsapp homepage that they are looking for a C+ progammer/debugger. So that could mean they will soon work on a version for Windows Phone!

Here is to hoping
The missing piece for me on the Window mobile platform is only Whatsapp. Once this is sorted, and I hope that Mango does what it needs to for the developers at WhatsApp, I'll then ditch iOS and Android.
Does anyone have "connections" to any of the developers at WhatsApp? I wish they would communicate their intent.

Yes, Whatsapp should provide some updates on whether a WP7 app is being made.
Also Microsoft should pull their socks up with WP7. It's been utterly disappointing. I've thrown more money to Apple to use the iPhone because of Microsoft's poor execution of the WP platform.

i am also waiting for Whatsapp for wp7 i have seen new cross platform app Pingme its nice its support for wp7 is coming soon
u can check the site www.pingme.net

WhatsApp is definitely coming and sooner than you think!

Whatsapp In Market Place
check this link http://wmpoweruser.com/whatsapp-now-in-marketplace/
i try but its not done yet but its matter of 1-2 days
Whatsapp is hera man

Whatsapp for all
unfortunately The reason many of you wont be able to see this is in marketplace is because your Windows Live ID hasn't been added by the author to the permissions page.
But good news is that it's coming sooon
I am attaching a file if any one interested. Happy Xapping.

works perfect on it i found it in the windows 7 phone section

Works perfect, i installed the .xap! Great to have it, more reasons to stay on WP7!

its working Fine on My HD2 Mango

Works great however it has some issues with push notificiations.
When I get a new message, instead of a contact name showing with the message, I get "Phoenix". Ah well its a BETA, after all

Installed and quite satisfied ... maybe this beta it's at an early status of development, missing many functionalities already present in the other available platforms, but I think that beta 1.0 is surely better of ... nothing, isn't?
BTW, has someone tried to add a sound effect when receiving a message?
Is it possible to change in any way the status message?

whatsapp is out but only for wp7.5 devices and the wp7 devices that will be upgraded to wp7.5.

[App] SciLor's GrooveMobile Alpha 1

SciLor's GrooveMobile Alpha 1 (2011-05-29)
I am currently working on a version of my GrooveMobile for WP7.1, supporting background listening.
Due to I have no phone for testing, is there anyone who likes to test the current state of the application? You will need an "open" phone, because this app may only find its way to the market if it is nearly bugfree.

Just downloaded it; will install and try out later. What info would you like?

Just interested in, how stable it is, especially how fluid the stream is.
It will cache all songs you have played in the Apps Internal Storage.

Same problem here, on my Trophy...
On the emulator it runs completely fine though.
Edit: Is it possible the crash occuring because our phones have OS version 7.0 and not 7.1 ?

I know the problem its for 7.1

Hi Scilor, nice to see you developing for WP7
I am have a HD2 running NoDo and it fails to load also

Its for wp7.1 maybe thats the problem.

i guess its programmed with sdk 7.1 which are the mango beta tools
so actually its for wp7.5
keep up the good work.
but keep in mind, i think musicshark got deleted of marketplace because it didnt had a licence to access the grooveshark libary
the xap was available for quite some time but now it not workin anymore

One thing I noticed when playing around with this in the mango emulator: if you start a song and go back to home (so background music is playing), selecting the program again opens a new instance and the old instance keeps playing the music

Now that Mango's out for devs, we'll be able to test your app
Will try to install it as soon as get Mango

It doesn't seems to work with the last WP7.1 tools.

Doesn't work on my Omnia with Mango. When I tap a song it crasheds
And on the emulator of the beta 2 SDK, keeps loading then crashes :/

I think its due to I have built it with the Beta 1 SDK. I will rebuild it with the Beta 2 SDK soon.

I also suggest to include a Exception Popup, which displays the Exception (and maybe an additional button to send the exception to you via email). I could send you a sample how it's achieved if you want.
greets toolsche

Can't wait for further development as I used your old app. Seems to crash upon trying to play a song. Sign in and such will be nice! Thanks a lot!

Similar experience on my mango phone, crashes when selecting a song. Looking forward to this app!

I asked access to the API on their website. But they said no because they are working on a WP7 app. Can I use their API by other way ?
