having everything listed as "Windows 8", or "Windows Phone 8" even though a lot of us have moved on to Windows 10 is extremely confusing, and a lot of threads for 10, are in 8 forums. Sure, we know where they are, but its still confusing. Perhaps you should have a Windows 10, and Windows 10 Mobile forum.

Somebody knows new Windows 7 for mobile ?
???
Dude I don't think that is on the horizon yet. Microsoft is still trying to get 6.5 to look good.

WM7 isn't even in closed beta stage yet. And when it IS eventually released, it will NOT run on the Kaiser, ever.
[edit]
I removed my post becasue I do not know what I was talking about
The last I heard was Microsoft released strong minimum specs for Windows Mobile 7 devices to ensure the new mobile OS runs well and gives a good consumer experience.
Here are some informational links:

last thing i heard about it was:
Microsoft has confirmed that the current team of 1,000 developers, working on Windows Mobile 7, are planning to feature social networks as a key element of Windows Mobile 7. In a company job posting, spotted by Mobile Tech World, officials are looking for a senior program manager in the Windows Mobile 7 Communications Group: The Windows Mobile 7 Communications group is building experiences on the phone that present your content - friends, pictures, messages, events - to you in immersive and engaging ways. Our vision is to bring social networks to life by integrating them into the core experience of the phone.

Moved to general as no real substinance for ROM Development MS are still refining 6.5 so really no news except what others posters above.
Leaving open just incase someone come up with a nuget about WM7...
Peace,
stylez.
Newbie help please ! I have just got an unlocked T-Mobile MDA Vario 3 with windows 6.5 professional on it and want to download an android app (ebay) I have the link for it but it says I need the Android market Place app first, where can I get this from, Thank you.....
you have WM so i dont think its possible to run an Android app
haha... Have you heard of an OS? Short for Operating System. Mac is one, Windows is one, Linux is one. Now, you can't run a Windows application on a Mac, right? Well, It's the same for a mobile OS to (Windows Mobile, Android, iOS).
The Android App Store is only available on a phone running Android OS.
However, you can port Android to your WinMo quite easily, thats what the whole "Android Development Forum" is about.

Hi,
I'm sure we all are mighty upset with the creators of Windows 7 Phone.
After loving windows mobile for some years the new variant of the software for my beloved PDA manufacturer just doesn’t cut the mustard.
To all the developers out there is there a way of using this fantastic piece of hardware with an alternative OS, Android or WM6.5.
I have to say I’m so glad this phone comes with the job, as I won’t be sorry to see it go.
Buy an HD2, you'll have an HD7 with windows 6.5
I'm glad mine comes with WP7 though
be patient. give the devs some time. your favorite software will come to wp7 soon.
Please stop with those kind of thread and stop to post them in development section.
Closed and moved.
Sorry if this question seems dumb. I jumped through all the hoops to get a student dev account set up (running WP8) - but now I'm unsure where to find apps made by other developers. Can anyone help? Thanks.
This is windows 8 not windows phone 8. There is no homebrew wp8 homebrew repository that I know of either. If a dev makes a xap available it will probably be uploaded wherever he sees fit.

Any common example of where that might be?

Upto the developer. There is no big site that they all upload to. Each one tends to be on a little community forum, might stick the XAP as an attachment on one of his forum posts. Or perhaps on his blog or his personal github. There is no giant site listing tonnes of homebrew XAP's. Closest you might find is to get out of the windows 8 section of XDA and go find the windows phone 8 developers section, there are a few apps stuck in there. Otherwise, you have probably wasted time getting your student license if homebrew was what your after.
And yeah. This is the windows 8 section of XDA. Windows 8 as in the PC/Laptop operating system, not windows phone 8, the 2 have little in common.

Okkie dokkie. Thanks. (p.s. my thread was moved here from that section, not sure why)
For what it's worth, I post my apps in Dev&Hacking sub-forum under WP8, with the notable ones in my signature. That's not much yet, but I was late getting a WP8 device. The other devs mostly post in the same place, in the Apps&Games sub-forum (lots there, but it's mostly betas of store apps, not homebrew), in the General sub-forum, or on sites like WPCentral.

I don't appreciate the insulting, in case you haven't noticed moderators can move threads. This was originally posted in windows 8, later moved here.
im trying to use an unlocked att huawei w1 in Sweden and an getting the no signal indicator often, after 3 days of perfect reception. i tried the sim card in an old flip phone and would immediately get full signal.
the cell phone shop said huawei phones notoriously have bad reception. is this true?
btw the phone company I'm using, comviq, users the same 900/1800 bands as att.
This is a windows 8 forum, namely the operating system on your desktop PC or your laptop. Nothing to do with phones here.
DISCLAIMER: for the next time someone tries to resort to petty insults when they attempt to point out this thread is in the windows phone 8 section where it belongs, at the time I posted this it was in the regular windows 8 section. Mods can move threads, people have attempted to insult me after the thread has been moved.
