Hello!
We (3 Microsoft Student Partners) created a free (yes, free!) WP 7.5 application, Good Morning.
Here is the description:
"Good Morning is an alarm clock using your personal musics. Browse your favorite tracks, choose one and let it act as an alarm.
Coming up:
- Enable multiple alarms
- Create a playlist as an alarm clock"
Here is the link: windowsphone.com/en-US/apps/a3144459-4a33-4aab-b81f-ff030ee92281
We currently released the V1 of the app. If you have some ideas for another version, or if you saw some problems with the app, your feedback is welcomed!

Hello Guys!
We have updated the app:
Changelog:
-pictures are not pixelized
-possibility to add a reminder when the alarm is active
-the alarm can be started from any slide of the app.
As usual, your feedbacks are welcomed !
Good app, works perfect on HD2 with the latest build of WP7.5
Thanks! I'm not sure if you all are open to suggestions, but I would kill for an alarm clock that could use a podcast, audio or video, as an alarm clock. For example, I'd love to wake up to the latest edition of the "Wall Street Journal This Morning" podcast!
Great App! I'm testing it & i love the UI (clean & metro).
Hope we'll see next version soon.
EDIT: Could you make this App works in background? Will be better.

Unfortunately, no. There is no way to do that with the current APIs.

Indeed, it could be great. That's not planned right now, but I'll probably think of it for a next major release !

Hello! Our latest update has been accepted, and you'll be able to download it in the next hours.
Here are the modifications:
v1.2 :
- "Shake to snooze": delay the alarm during 5 minutes
- settings page added
- start/pause button deleted (for managing the music)
- pin an alarm on the phone's home page
- icons of the application use the phone's accent color

I know you guys are Student dev's and congrats on your App but I am here to let you know you can actually run your app as a background process. You need to create a separate program in general and add it in to your current project as now your app has 2 projects.
Yes, you could turn the other project in to a control but I don't recommend it as this way you can edit better and no need to re-compile out of project.
With your second project, it runs in the background allowing the other project to be the "brain". If you add a reference to your main app, you can do quite a bit in your bg app, for example... Have it detect the time and than send the function of an alert someone sent...
It's the same idea as if you were going to do TOAST/LIVE Tile updates.
Hope my 2 cents didn't offend you, just trying to help you .
Thanks,
Lance

Hi lseidman,
Thanks for your feedback.
You're right, I can add another project to my solution to implement a background agent.
Unfortunately, afaik :
1/ The player uses the Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Media namespace, which can't be referenced from a Task Agent project.
2/ Tasks are handled by the system. We can't defined the scheduled interval. As mentioned on msdn [I can't post any outside link - sorry] a periodic task can run every 10mn at least.
I don't know every APIs and I may be wrong, but I don't think what you described is a solution. Please let me know if i'm wrong.
Thanks again for helping me make this app better !

1).
Have you tried using using System.Windows.Media and doing something like (in XAML):
<MediaElement x:Name="mediaControl" Source="soundfile.mp3/wma" AutoPlay="False" Width="0" Height="0" Margin="240,60" />
* Note the 0's so it's hidden.
** You can replace source's defined file location (assuming your not copying the file they select to local storage, renaming and defining it as one specific item name) to Source="{Binding filetoplay}".
Obviously when using binding your going to need to have something to bind to it (even if you did a "public string itemname {get; set;}" in a class).
Which you could always use IsolatedStorage like I said above in which you could do:
using (isolatedStorageFileStream)
{
SaveFile(e.Result, isolatedStorageFileStream);
//error is null function, go and do:
media.SetSource(isolatedStorageFileStream);
}
* Just know other steps are needed before you even get to that point but just an example. This is obviously where you previously grabbed the file, "created" it, saved it and set for playback (hence the .SetSource).
Then for playback wherever you needed it, you just throw: mediaControl.Play();.
Again, just an idea to get around XNA. It won't be simple if you're not familiar with IsolatedStorage and other aspects around it but you can get away from XNA.
2). Take a look at these, maybe they'll help you...
ScheduledNotification Class
Alarm Class
Reminder Class
Also check out the other items around the PeriodicTask.
Either way, good luck and best of luck with future development!
Thanks,
Lance

I found this app on the Market for anyone that came from or is coming from Android. It's probably the best Google reader app.
Syncs and everything!
Has anyone downloaded or bought the app? What does the paid version do?
Thanks

You can also check out this article that came out on PocketLint:
http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/43624/best-windows-phone-7-apps
I'm throttled on my HTC Radar (T-Mobile slowed down my Internet) and the app still downloads e articles pretty quick. I love it.
What is the diff between The trail and full version ?
HG! said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
With paid version you get:
Multiple Live Tiles, you can pin any feed/folder to start
Full image caching, with Trial version the caching is limited to images of the newest 25 articles per sync
Option to change font size in article-reading
Hope this helps,
edoardo
PS: I'm the developer of Flux, with your purchase you also receive lots of Flux Love!
Thanks/ I think you can add this on the market place listing.
Second I am not able to make this app work since 4 days now. It is stuck at Syncing Subscription. Any idea ?

I'm using omnia 7 and works fine, I like it Very useful, also in the trial version
I downloaded NextGen, and I guess it's all about tastes.
I found Flux satisfies me more.
@edonistart, under subscriptions- what is *misc?
For me is much better Reader2Go...

Unfortunately we're using the Google ClientLogin Authentication, which doesn't support 2-step verification.
We'd need to adopt OAuth, maybe we'll add in a future release.
Thanks for reporting this problem!

images not working
Hi edonistart.
I have downloaded your app Flux today as it look like a great google reader app. Their is one problem I can't get the images working on the tile view for articles or on my live tiles. How do I set this up in the settings?
Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike, thanks for your support!
Go to settings and check these settings:
caching tab
- Cache images: wi-fi only (or always if you're not on a wi-fi)
- When not cached, download images: always
live tiles tab
Show image of newest unread: Yes
For the images to be shown, the article must have at least one image in the "preview" (the html got by the feed).
Hope this helps,
edoardo
PS: I'll follow up in email too, so to be sure that everything is working as expected.

Sorry it didn't work, I have those settings already set. I have email you the xml file.
Good afternoon. I would like to present the official Radar Beep app.
It was launched today on Google Play.
The way the app works is simple:
- Install the app via Google Play, select the country, and that's it. It warns you of the nearest radars, and you don't need to worry about updating the radars, as it updates automatically to always have the latest database.
- It also warns us when we are going past the radar so we can keep to the desired speed.
The main screen has two buttons:
- Spanner: Preferences
- Green ON button and red OFF button: this changes when we touch it, turning detection on or off.
It can integrate with all GPS navigation apps, as the detection dialog pops up over the navigator. You can hide it with a single touch.
It has a directional map system - in other words, it always shows you the map in the direction you're going, as well as flagging all the radar guns.
We have a Widget for turning detection on without having to open the app, and it can also turn on automatically when you turn on your Bluetooth hands-free system, turning off when you turn off the car.
And finally, we have a Radar Beep NFC sticker which can turn the app on when the phone gets near it.
The app is free and ad-supported. You can pay to get rid of the ads, but if not, the app is fully functional with a little advertising so we can maintain the service.
The app is available in:
Spanish, English, German, French, Chinese, Korean, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Hindi, Italian, Romanian, Polish and Arabic.
There are some screenshots below so you can check it out.
Best regards,
Juan

If you like customization and themes on keyboard you should check some like this

I just downloaded the apk from another source.. its not incompatible!
(easy to find via google)
well that's what i want to... the Xperia Keyboard is perfekt, accurate and does everything i want, but no option to disable auto-capitalization...
wondering why (maybe problems with patents or licence, don't know)
let's hope they will add it soon, it's annoying
SwiftKey is really good, and the new Google Material Keyboard too, but i miss the option to use comma, period etc.

I'm using Google keyboard with no issues, although I am also using Nova Launcher so not sure if that makes a difference. Not quite as many keyboard customization options as on my Nexus 4, but more than the Xperia keyboard (and capitalization control is there).
Hi guys
So, I got one of these 4x global last summer, and I'm very happy with this phone, but I have an issue with the vertical swipe to answer incoming calls
I'm used to the "normal" horizontal swipe from my previous phones (I had some Samsungs, and a couple of Sony's Xperia, still have an old Z1 compact when my 4x runs out of battery), and I just can't get used to this vertical swipe.
I did a search on google play apps for some call screen apps, and installed some 10 or so, but none of them worked well
My phone is running the stock Marshmallow 8.2.18.0 (by the way, it should have been already updated, but the update tool says there's no updates available)
Did any of you had the same issue? How did you solve it?
Regards
Antonio (Portugal)
Olá amigo
You're using MIUI's default phone app? Most of today's phone interface uses vertical swipe to answer calls. There's no setting available to change that from the app itself.
Maybe try to change the phone app, download from play store and see which one is good for you.
