Seen this on the microsoft website so thought I'd give it a try on the Diamond
Seems quite slick
www.sportypal.com
thx! I'll give it a try
This app is very nice, my passion is cycling.
It works without any problem on my Diamond.
When i go biking i turn on the app. and just put my phone in the backpack, it's getting the GPS very clean.
Excellent work, i'm very satisfied from Sportypal.
Cheers
New version is available for download
SPORTYPAL 1.0.6
http://sportypal.com/Phones/WinMo
I am going to try this out later, been using RunGPS for recording my running.
This looks great and simple, also you get to view all your results and records on line, which you can either allow others to view or not...brilliant, how did you find this software ?
I'm using the 1.0.7 version now, i can see the pace while running and also some other options added to their web service. Because i'm running on the same track good thing now is that i can compare my runs. Still trying to get good GPS coverage. Sometimes it gives me really correct mapping, but not always, I don't know if is the GPS or I have to change something in the settings?
I use this since it came out.
It has everything, loggs nicely, good social function, includes running and biking and has all the map **** you'd need.
It's pretty much perfect.

From FAQ:
Tracking accuracy of SportPal is dependent on the accuracy of the GPS data that it analyses. GPS accuracy is influenced by many factors, such as: atmosphere, the ionosphere and the position of your mobile phone.
I use Sportypal since it come out also.
It is greater every time I use it. I like new features compare tracks and goals.
Social part of Sportypal is the best, multyplatform and Sportypal friends are right features.
Yes, both of this features are very useful, especially the one for comparing tracks. I'm not that active for the goal feature .
From the social part I like the option to embed with the ride summary data along side the mapped route.

Yes the "goal" feature is interesting, in my case, I have to cycle at least 20 hours prior to 22/10 which I can then trace through the website. So I will see how the results are gonna be next week.

Feel free to ask me any questions on any i love to help....
Taskiller for killing off processes and apps.
Astro - file explorer app.
Agree with Co-pilot above - wouldn't have bought it without proper sat nav program.
Not essential but useful - Toggle Settings and Tone Picker.
Still looking for a decent movie player which seems a long way off. If coreplayer ports over the Hero will be complete!

Second BeebPlayer. Really nice iPlayer implimentation.
My Hero came with the pre-latitude Google Maps - needed an upgrade!
A decent compass app!
London Tube Status app - so I know whether to run or walk out of my office in the evening!
Great thread- thanks for the advise.
However I cant find this beebplayer app... help?
Locale - Awesome app. Lets you customise your phone based on location, time, etc.
Last.fm - until spotify is released
OpenSudoku (Best one by quite a margin)
ShopSavvy - Barcode price comparison that works in the UK and gives you local results as well as web ones
Google Voice Search - Works surprisingly well

what about MSN? i expect my Hero in 3 days, need to prepare also, barcode scanner, is that pre-installed or needs to be downloaded/bought?
Barcode scanner is free from the marketplace, it works really well.
Ive got some - had an android Handset as my main phone for 6 months and I adore it - currently have a Google Ion dev version of magic.
PicSay (and Picsay Pro) - Ive got the pro version - takes pics from camera or gallery and really easily adds speech bubbles, clipart, doodles, colourise, warp, captions etc then allows you to send via mms, mail, to twitter, picassa, facebook.
AK Notepad - very simple, easy to use and very robust. can back up to SD.
Twidroid and Babbler - might be redundant on Hero but great twitter and facebook apps.
Bettercut - allows you to add shortcuts for allsorts of stuff, and to edit any shortcut on your desktop to show your own icons.
UK TVguide - free version has a pop up on start and an add strip at bottom but small and simple to use
Wallpaper Set And Save - lets you use .pngs for crisper images
Jewellust - brilliant bejewelled clone a bit like Jewel Quest...
BookmarkBR - Backup to SD and restore your bookmarks from and to the android browser - great for when you eventually start wiping a lot and loading roms etc...
G-Backup - backs up SMS and MMS and a few other things to folders on gmail server. Auto back up is brilliant again if you wipe and change roms a lot you never lose a message.
Root Explorer - for when hero gets root - lets you go anywhere and options to toggle r/w and r/o in each folder, to copy paste and move stuff - dangerous in the wrong hands obviously...
Beebplayer is great, as is an app called Television, lets you download and run videocasts mostly from US but grand

I've been on Windows mobile for years and have crossed over to android and got a htc hero. I'm very impressed with android and wish I'd crossed over sooner.
One thing I really miss is microsoft voice command on my old wm device.
Do you know if there is a similar app for the android os? There are voice dialers on android market but they dont seem to cut it for me.
Can you help please?

Name: Subnet Calculator
Hi Everyone,
Inspired by a request from Omega Ra, I decided to get my feet wet with WP7 development and build a Subnet Calculator application.
The app itself is pretty simple. You enter an ip address, and it will calculate the Network Id, Broadcast Address, and Min/Max host addresses for the configured subnet. Changing any of the settings will update the values. Here's a bullet point list of features:
Two Modes - switch between a classful and classless calculator by swiping left/right. The application implements Microsoft's Pivot control.
Flexibility - provides a selection of configuration options using the subnet mask, mask bits, subnet bits, hosts available per subnet, maximum available subnets, and the ip address.
Email - send your configuration to yourself quickly and easily.
List all subnets - for the classful calculator, you can view the list of all possible subnets.
ToDo:
Make the IP Address easier to edit/manipulate. I'm thinking of enlarging the TextBox once you click on it, that way you'll be able to select parts of the address easier.
Sexify the overall appearance
I'm open to any feedback/suggestions you all may have.
Credits/Thanks
I borrowed heavily from this online tool
Thanks to Omega Ra for the idea
!!!UPDATE!!!
Application is now available in the marketplace, please get it through there and comment if you want to show some support, but the xap will always remain available and updated on this thread
To install on your phone just rename the file from SubnetCalculator.zip to SubnetCalculator.xap
Please see the WP7 Hacking for Beginners thread for further information on how to sideload an xap.
this is the one im looking for a very long time.. i hope you make one for android
nice, it has it's own thread and thanks for the props Looking great so far!
The only other thing I can think of that might be useful would be a button that will show you the subnet address ranges (in the advanced ip calculator I linked to once you put in the address and click the magnifying glass you will see what I mean.) Other than that this is awesome!

just out of curiosity, how is this coming along? is it going to hit the marketplace soon? So far there are no IP calculators on there, though there is one hexidecimal one.
Any progress??? there is now a subnet calc up on the marketplace...though yours looks better, it looks fairly functional...
I guess development on this has stopped?

Great app! Thanks!
Thanks everyone! My app was rejected from the marketplace for failing to display the app version and technical contact information :'( So I should have an update pretty soon that amends this. I also took the chance to add a couple features and clean things up. The app now recovers state properly and you can send out an email with the configuration settings. I added an app bar that you can use to navigate between the prev/next subnets, so you no longer click on min/max host ips.
I'm working on getting a view of all available subnets in the mix as well, just have to figure out how best to display it
Any chance you can upload the new version as a XAP too to let us play with it while you wait for market approval?
New version is up
awesome. so yours is the one in the market from bitconsortium? As soon as I get the Trophy (once it hits Verizon) I will get it and give it 5 stars

***** Updated June 3, 2011 *****
Thanks again to everyone who helped with the beta testing. Just wanted you to know that I just posted version 1 to the Android Market. It's free and you can get it here:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.greggreno.whattowatch
-Gregg
***** Updated May 5, 2011 *****
Uploaded a new version to the same location. Here are the changes:
- Improved the scrolling position after adding more titles to the bottom, but still not perfect
- Fix bug leaving the Netflix registration window open
- Set maximum title list retrieval to 50 at a time
- Fixed bug with extra Edit Search Criteria icon showing in apps list
- Fixed size and look of loading images
- Added ability to turn off ads by buying an unlocker from the Android market
Netflix still hasn't fixed their problems with TV series and getting the data right in their API
***************************
Hi all. I've been working on a new Honeycomb only app called What To Watch, and I'm looking for some beta testers. Anyone interested in helping out?
I wanted a better way to browse for Netflix movies and also manage my queues. For example, I wanted to do something like "show me all Sci Fi movies available on Instant with a 3 star rating or higher, rated PG-13 or R, sorted by release date". I couldn't find any other web site or app to do this, so I figured I would build it myself.
There are 3 main sections:
1) My Searches - this is where you can create your own searches and save them for later. I create two to start with. Click on one and it will display the list in the panel on the right, 25 at a time. Once you click on one of the My Seaches items, you can edit it by long pressing it or clicking the Edit button at the top. Note that this uses a beta API from Netflix called OData. It's the only API that lets you do sophisticated searches like this, but unfortunately it is subject to change from Netflix and it may not always be current with the main Netflix library.
2) Netflix Queues - what you would expect. For example, what is in your DVD and Instant queues.
3) Top Lists - this comes from the Netflix web site rather than the API. It shows what the top titles are for each category. This method won't show the star ratings until you drill into a particular title.
You can download the apk here (note this is case sensitive):
http://jigawattlabs.com/temp/WhatToWatch.apk
Known issues:
This is the first release. Should probably call it an Alpha!
Authenticating with Netflix isn't quite right yet. You may wind up with the web browser still open after exiting the app, and you may get another instance of the app. But just exit everything and it should be ok
There is a bug with the Netflix API with TV series and specials. This is a problem on their end, so you might get some unexpected results when browsing TV shows
I would appreciate any and all comments in terms of general UI impressions, bugs, performance, usability.
You can reach me directly at [email protected].
Thanks!
-Gregg Reno
I just tried it out, seems to work great. I just wish there was a way to actually watch Netflix on my zoom
Thanks for trying it out. I'd love to be able to watch netflix movies as well, and I think we will see that at some point. Hopefully once Netflix makes that possible, I can integrate that into the app.
I'm also going to implement a friends feature, where you can mark your favorite movies and share it with friends, and see what their favorites are.
Comments from other folks are welcome!
My first impression of the app is that it has some shared elements with amazon's web page, which is great. But the reason I say first impression is that it isn't registering with netflix.
Sent from my Xoom the way it should be, rooted and with SD card.
chbennett - thanks for testing. Can you give me some more info on the problem you had registering? When clicking almost anything it should prompt you to register. If you say ok, it should take you to a Netflix web page. You may have to log in and then it should prompt you to give permission to the What To Watch application. If you approve,it should take you back to the app and you should be able to run any of the searches on the left.
Where did you run into problems?
I installed it on my XOOM. Log in into Netflix without any problems. Searching also good, but could be good to add additional information about movie like Availability (for some of it shows when it will be available in stream).
It's a pity that we still missing Hulu or Netflix apps on our XOOM. Get used to watch it on my iPad(

Great app! Forcecloses when I click on New Instant Choices under Top Lists category
Also when going into the Instant Que list; I click one of the movies and it takes me to the description. I can also click on Similar, Drop from Instant or Add to Disc. If I choose Drop from Instant and click the back arrow it still shows in the Instant Que listing. Can we have the option of clicking the Instant Que button on the top left corner in the movie description to go back to the Instant Que listing and if we do happen to press the back arrow could the Instant Que listing automatically update with the removal of the movie?
Kozdoba - I will be adding additional information like directors and awards, but I'll also look at adding availability. Do you have an example title in mind I can test with?
bishop72 - thanks for finding the problem with the New Instant choices. I'll look at that one, but it may be because that's a really big list and I'm not handling it correctly. Also, good idea about removing titles from the instant titles if you click the remove from instant button. But the problem with that for me is if I remove it from the list, it should probably close that title window because it's no longer in the instant queue. Maybe someone hit the remove button by mistake and they want to re-add it?
Also I notice that there is some type of caching going on with the adding and removing from queues. When you add or remove, it does that action and then sends another request to netflix to get the current status. But it may not register that quickly. So you may hit remove from instant, and then I get back a status from Netflix saying it's still in the instant queue. If you click it again, it shows up ok.
I appreciate the feedback - good or bad!

downloaded the apk to nook but just got a parse error failed to load. I really love my netflix and was looking forward to tablet style look on nc.
The app installed fine, the Netflix login auth worked fine as well. The fit & finish look good as well. Some of the images and searches render a bit slow, but that could be my wifi. I will play with it more through the day and report back.
I believe i heard that Netflix was going to do a live stream with Netflix only productions, so a Top List of Netflix Original or something would be good.
Everyone - thanks for testing and for the comments. I really appreciate it! It's interesting it worked for some but didn't work for dbolton. Not sure why that is.
dbolton - can you post a screen shot of your error, or email it to me at [email protected]? I also took a few screen shots so you can see what it should look like:
http://jigawattlabs.com/w2w/screen1.png
http://jigawattlabs.com/w2w/screen2.png
kiteOregon - once Netflix posts a list of their own content in some type of list, I'll definitely look at adding that. For the Top Lists section, I'm just using the Netflix RSS feeds linked from the bottom of the page. Modified it somewhat to return no more that 50 at a time though since it would load too slow.
Thanks again!

Thus far all is working well. I really like the interface too, great job!
I am going to keep tinkering with it and let you know if I run into any issues or have any suggestions.
Thanks for the great app!

I heard that Netflix was having problems with authorization from 3rd party apps. As a work around the suggest launching your browser and log into Netflix. Leave the browser running, and then launch the app and try to register again. Can you let me know if that works?

Thanks! Working to add more features.
somehow I now have a 'edit search criteria' icon (same as main apps icon) in my app drawer as if it were a separate app.
My initial reaction is very positive, but I have the same issue as garyh2. When I tell it to uninstall, I am informed that it is part of the main application so obviously I left it there. This is a weird bug though...
The only other thing I noticed is that the placeholder icons that appear before titles and images populate are slightly larger than the images and titles that replace them. This doesn't really cause problems but is slightly distracting.
I really like the power search function and the ability to save searches and haven't really seen this functionality elsewhere. Good job!
Thanks garyh2 and vidriera - ill take a look at that. The edit screen is a separate activity rather than a fragment, which is probably its somehow getting its own icon. Just one of the differences with honeycomb I need to figure out.
Also good point about the loading graphic. I'll fix that too.
Hi all,
myMedia WP7 has recently been released on the marketplace. myMedia WP7 is a TVersity client that allows you to stream music and video (and view pictures) from your TVersity server to your WP7 device.
The server handles all the transcoding (if required), so all videos formats are playable on your phone. For Tversity to properly identify your WP7 device you need to update the included profiles file. Instructions and the profile is available from here http://www.gordonhome.info/?p=198
myMedia WP7 has a fully functional trial mode (ad-supported) or is $1.99 US for the non-ad version.
You can get is here (Zune link) http://social.zune.net/redirect?type=phoneApp&id=27cacd23-1e94-e011-986b-78e7d1fa76f8
A video of it in action
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2OB_Om4BWc
Please post app recommendations in WP7 General.
~~Tito~~
Sounds cool. When I have a bit of time to setup Tversity, I think I will give this a go!
I already had TVersity and DynDNS installed (for separate reasons) so I set up myMedia and it works flawlessly both over my home network and from the external address.
Very nice, I can confirm the trial is fully functional & works flawlessly once you have TVersity & DynDNS (Needed if you don't have a static External IP, which most ISP's don't use) setup.
Could you explain setup using dns a little more? Also, should you not need to use a dns ip if you're just trying to use tversity with mymedia wp7 on your home network (connected through wifi)? Thanks.
Ok, got it working on home network. Now just trying to get it set up with port forwarding and using dns server.

Yes, you don't need to use a DNS service on your home network (or if your ISP provides a static IP address). You just put in the IP address of your tversity server.

Hi,

It doesn't appear in the drop down settings (that's not what the profile does), it's automatically detected based on browser strings. The Mango Beta has thrown a spanner in the works by changing the browser string so WP7 is no longer automatically detected.
I've submitted an updated version to the marketplace that lets you force tversity to use a specific profile. By choosing this option and putting in the profile GUID (it defaults to the GUID of the WP7 profile I provide), you can force tversity to use whatever profile you want regardless of the auto detection.
Hi,
unfortunately this update did not resolve the issue.
It seems to recognize it as a Windows Phone 7 now, but Tversity is telling me: Error - Could not strart transcoding for file://.................avi
nevermind that, fixed, all working ! thanks !!!!!!!!!!
I got everything running but when I try to play a movie it gives an error... ''Sorry, can't play this file''... Or something like that...
Any ideas...?

It's not transcoding the file
1. Did you install the profile?
2. If so, is the device being identified as a WP7 device?
3. If you're using Mango, turn the force profile detection on in the settings page.

And ticked Use DirectShow for Windows Media Encoding and choose Windows Media Video 9 in the drop down menu...
Now everything works fine in Mango...

I'm not, I'm a consumer offering feedback. Isn't it why you post here, for feedback? I send feedback to plenty of devs and never had an answer like yours, I'm really unimpressed.

If that's the type of 'constructive' feedback you offer to developers, then I'm sure your feedback is ignored.
'I'd like a new icon for this app' is not constructive and provides no insight into what you feel is wrong with the current icon, or what could be done to improve it. Not only that, the tone of the post is arrogant and rude.
Most developers would ignore comments like those. Fortunately I don't make my living off this type of stuff so I can say what I want, how I want. In general, I'm courteous and will do everything to help out a user and work through any issues they have. On occasion, I'll talk to people in the same manner they chose to address me.
For anyone who wants to suggest genuine features or has requests for changes, I'm happy to listen. In fact, I've made a number of additions and changes based on user feedback.
I've also spent significant time assisting users setup tversity so they get the best experience using the app.
Peew971, in order to avoid feeling disappointed in future, I'd reconsider how you leave 'feedback'.

BellPego,
Glad you got it streaming for you. Just a note though, that if you use those settings and have other devices it'll also affect playback on those devices.
Personally, my settings are
Mediaplayback Device
Automatic
Transcoder
Only when needed
decrease bitrate
Windows Media Encoder
Tick use directshow
Windows Media Video 9
Optimization
Quality
Compression
Average
When you insert the WP7 profile into the TVersity profiles.xml file (this will automatically be included in the next build of TVersity), and in Mango turn on the force profile detection, it will detect that the device is a Windows Phone 7 and transcode accordingly.

Wow, I said "I'd like a new icon for this app", not one more word. What is it I should reconsider, was I disrespectful to you or your work? Alright I just typed a quick sentence from my phone and didn't elaborate but I didn't deserve that sarcastic answer of yours.
I've been praising your app to friends and users here and elsewhere and that's how you address me because I said "I'd like a new icon for this app"?! This takes me back to those bad times with Dinik on the HD2 forums, talented guy but I couldn't force myself to support his work anymore after some odd posts of his.
Just... wow.
