So far I know that Chrome/Firefox to phone work and MobileDefense is working on using the new push mechanism for their software.
Just curious if anyone has heard of any other applications using it (or planning on it). I personally think this is the BIGGEST game changer with the 2.2 update. Things such as MobileDefense will no longer need to use an SMS to turn on the tracking software. It can be done silently.....
I love the ESPN scorecenter app on all my devices, but I can't get it to login on my nook color. Because of this I can not add any teams to follow and the functionality gets limited. I follow alot of teams so would like to find a to troubleshoot or fix
Any ideas where I can start?
Sent from my nook color.
i noticed the same thing, if you attempt to create a new account it looks like it wants your phone number, this is likely related to the issues that occur with apps that require the device to be a phone for some reason.
I ve seen a thread in here about getting apps to work inspite of the missing phone functionality. i will see if i can find it and try some of the suggestions they have. hopefully i can find an answer burried in there somewhere.
thanks

Done and submitted to Market Place, i put to links at the bottom, you can grab the version without ads or if you wanna be awesome, you can grab the version with ads.. up to you, i dont judge!
5-16-2011
This version has ads while i test out the app. when the app is complete, the link will go to the version without ads for XDA users.
So this is an app i am currently working on. In the end it will be ad supported, but for now i will be sharing it here.
Once you are in, feel free to look me up : thefro : and say hi!
This is a work in progress, so obviously not everything is in place yet.
Working:
You and others join channels to chat in.
Settings and avatar (synced with server)
Push Messaging
Find people around you
Live Tile
Kinda Working:
All is well for now...
Upcoming:
cosmetic upgrades
All feedback is welcome!!
If you do try it out and run into issues, please let me know so i can fix it!
Usage Notes:
There will not be a list of channels, you will have to join one(by typing in a name), and tell others to meet you there. This is to keep thing private'ish... so you dont have random people just showing up. Most items will have context menus, so when in doubt, long press.
I can be found in channel : "support" - Push is done, so i will be able to catch your messages even with the app closed!
Nightly builds will always be at this link... i will also try to keep them as stable as possible. - No new builds until i need to make changes..
While there are daily updates, check the link often as i usually upload new versions as features are completed.

Hello Everyone, i found some odd bugs that may not let you log in. ( i never uninstall it, just keep updating so i had no idea they were there )
Those are now fixed as well as a few other improvements.
Check the link for the updated version.
Hello again...
I see lots of views, and some people even went far enough to create an account..
Please leave any feedback...
If something doesnt work, or makes it crash...
tell me its a horrible idea, or that maybe you like it and want more...
Well, sorry for the long delay if anyone was waiting... i was out of the country..
Later!
-Edit....
So, i decided to see why there were no users doing anything even though i see new users in the system and the fact that this has a pile of views. Come to find out, people could not complete the new user signup process... so i fixed it and now users can create accounts and try out the app... If you created an account and had this issue, i had to delete your account since the process was incomplete...
Feel free to try the app again, and hopefully let me know of any other problems that may arise.
Now that it is done, this is the last bump... it goes somewhere or it doesnt.
Will we get official mango update for htc hd 7?
I'm asking because it's ready and has been shipped to carriers for testing.
But news mention just nokia, and fujitsi.
So what about htc hd 7?
Of course we will. Not like Android, which chooses which phones will be updated. Official will be for all Windows phones!
Since its been shipped to carriers for testing have they given an actual date as opposed to the fall season.
The current version is beta, not for resale as it says on the windows screen when the phone starts. Certain things don't work and are not enabled including API's. Official version will be very soon, possibility as it looks is September, but no official word from Microsoft. Running mango myself, it is ready for release, few small glitches here and there lime html5 implementation API not working yet but is there. All the rest is fine. Volume now is loud and speakerphone is useful once again, as well as the volume steps are changed from 10 to 20 now. All the new hubs and custom hubs as email work great. Search, new look and feel market, people, photos, social integration, Facebook chat not yet. It is there but only redirects to Facebook. WiFi,3g, bt all work much better. Visual voice mail not available in this beta build. For anyone installing the test beta, please note that this. version will not upgrade to the official mango. One will have to revert to no-do first. All settings will be lost.
Microsoft has taken the Apple approach here, so almost all windows phones will get the MANGO update.
AS mentioned above its looking to come around september/October, unless you have a carrier branded phone which might push it a couple of months more, as Microsoft lets them test it for their networks.
It rumoured RTM is almost ready to be shipped so hopefully we on target.
Tried the mango beta and looks really promising.
Has anyone heard about WiFi calling?

Visual Voicemail works for me... And I do notice the volume is loader (thank god) but I don't see me being able to go to 20 instead of 10.....
Anybody verify this? Volume was always a big issue, especially plugging in to external speakers and such through the audio jack.

When you say the volume is louder do you mean when a headset or headphones are in? Also are they iphone/ipod loud?
What version of the beta are you running 2 or 1?

Microsoft wants a full blown complete update in one shot. Whether carrier branded or not as of RTM the carriers also have their time to test it so given that mid to late October is about three months from now I do believe everyone will be receiving the update regardless of carrier branding.
Even if Hd7 gets official Mango update, it will be a while before the users start seeing it. I would assume the new devices will get more attention for carriers.
If no new phones come out then its probably safe to say yes. If new phones with the mango update come out then its probably a no.
With the last update there came a new UI for the music player interface. Thats quite nice to see Google is active working month by month on improve Android Auto. But there is still a long way ahead. I think on one hand its also danger to change a interface without guide a user in detail about changes.
Sadly as a developer I didn´t find any announcement of this change and now my music player isnt working anymore. Have no clue why...
Maybe someone got a link with details about changes?
Update: Found out Google updated https://developer.android.com/training/auto/audio/ silently to meet the new design and functionality. Sadly it´s hard to see in detail what changed from last version to the actual. I am still wondering why my app isnt working anymore.
