imho, this topic should be treated as spam and advert.
who's interested knows about 10.1 for MONTHS.
Authors and their satellites arent helping popularity of that project with having worst site, worst forum and worst support in whole internet(or maybe it changed since 2nd rel of 0.10..).
Also, where is freeware(no-saves) version for 0.10.1, hm?
This is what i am talking about.
Emulator's good, though, it wipes out every ps1 emus for other portable systems immediately(i do not count Pandora, there's no concurrency there).
Hey guys. I thought of trying to watch a netflix movie on the phone. Used dolphin browser on desktop mode and it got me to the play screen, but then netflix told me I needed silverlight...i clicked to download that and of course I get a .exe file.
I searched and did not see an apk for silverlight...is there anything similar that will trigger playback of media that requires silverlight?
Or maybe better but highly doubtful, is there a release of silverlight for android?
If no to the above, anybody working on a fix for this? Got hulu working, now let's get netflix going!
Swyped from my HTC Evo 4G on the MetroPCS 1X network!
Quite simple, nope. Microsoft claims Silverlight is too big for Android (and given that it's a Microsoft POS... Yeah, I'm inclined to agree).
Netflix has said they're going to be coming out with an Android app "soon," since they released iPad and iPhone apps.
and there is no way to get at the stream directly from outside the silverlight environment with an app similar to the hulu app?
I know netflix hired an android dev recently but I wonder how long the turnaround time will be for the app...
Swyped from my HTC Evo 4G on the MetroPCS 1X network!
Where is this Hulu app?? I cannot find it..
its under themes & apps a page or two in...
what about moonlight? I installed the sdk and saw a demo app that played a silverlight video. how come noone has developed this further?!
Swyped from my HTC Evo 4G on the MetroPCS 1X network!
Unfortunately, no, you can't get it outside of Silverlight. Silverlight is required for the DRM that Netflix uses to prevent you from downloading movies (a la YouTube). The sole exception is the devices which have Netflix support (Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, etc.) which in turn have their own strong DRM, and encrypt the stream.
makes sense.
damn I guess we're stuck until the app gets released...whenever that is!

Where is this app? I looked when it was mentioned but didn't see it. Does it actually work?

I call BS, no one from Microsoft said this. SL is one the main programming languages in Windows Phone 7 (I've been a SL dev since version 1.1 alpha) and runs on pretty comparable Android hardware just fine.
It's a simple decision to not support Linux. SL supports the Mac and Windows platform and pays licenses for every copy downloaded because of some commercial media codecs they're using in the runtime. Linux support has been relegated to Novel who support Silverlight through the Mono/Moonlight project, and they provide their own codec alternatives to get around the licensing issues.
Silverlight is a very fast moving tech, in the last 3 major releases, an average 8 out of 10 top developer requested features were implemented by the Silverlight teams at Microsoft. Right now, the #1 requested feature for the next version, by far, is greater platform support:
http://dotnet.uservoice.com/forums/4325-silverlight-feature-suggestions
In the old Windows Mobile world Skyfire was a way to view full Flash and Silverlight content, but alas their Android version currently doesn't support this.
http://blog.netflix.com/2010/11/netflix-on-android.html
Greg Peters, of Netflix, announced that select android phones will be getting Netflix streaming early next year. It's "select" because the android platform does not have a common DRM solution, and Netflix's content providers require it in order to allow streaming media. The "select" phones have not been announced, and Greg Peters said that they unfortunately have to work with manufacturers on a phone by phone basis in order to get the required DRM.
All I know is, if you have Sprint TV, which you should if you have an Evo (I have an Epic myself), Sprint's very own version of DRM is baked in. If Netflix has been talking to Samsung and Sprint to get instant streaming on the Sprint Android phones, we may already have what we need in order to get it (when it finally comes out, that is).
I'm just mad that WP7 had Netflix at launch. On another note iPhone's get all the love and priority. That's one thing I miss about my iPhone, the apps.
I'm thinking of buying an iPod Touch and using that for Netflix via Wifi Tether. I talk to a lot of Netflix higher ups and never get a chance to ask them about it.

Looks like the Mono/Moonlight team are working on porting Moonlight to Android phones. They had a demo at Mix11 (I'd link you to the blog post I just saw about it, but I guess I need to post more often to be allowed to link to outside sources).
Just Google for "jeffrey stedfast moonlight android" and it should be the first match.
Mono developers were laid off... no more .net for linux for a long while...
Do we have moonlight already on Android?
Nice!!!! Check it out. What does this mean?? Snapdragon 1 as some hope to running some sweet games? Or a fancy demo that will never flourish??

read the article here
Synapse Gaming has ported their Xbox Live gaming Engine, SunBurn to Windows phone 7.
The engine supports all all the features and systems the hardware is capable of supporting, and allows a game to run across all three platforms without any modifications,
On Windows Phone 7 the engine supports:
• Diffuse and emissive mapping
• Volume lighting
• Bloom / post-processing
• Baked-down lighting on static objects (see below)
• Composite lighting on dynamic objects (see below)
• Collisions
• Use the same scenes, light rigs, code, tools, and api on Windows, Xbox, and Windows Phone 7
SunBurn 2.0 also includes in-editor baked-down lighting, which generates light maps that render with none of the overhead of the real-time lighting (rendering nearly for free). This makes highly detailed lighting and shadows possible on Windows Phone 7 (which does not support dynamic lighting and shadows).
Several Windows phone 7 games have already been released using the engine, including Salty Jim’s Putt Putt Island, UpAway and Blast.
To learn more, and see SunBurn WP7 games and demos in action, go to SunBurn for WP7

price is $150
games will come, iphone started with lots of crapware too, on lower hardware.
we have rocking hardware, already running iOS 4 only games (puzzle quest 2)
and major wp7 exclusive titles comming up. give it one year, people need to learn,
wp7 need to advance and improove, open up more..
but we will get all of this, im sure...
I think that golf game is in the market place, its Salty Jims Putt Putt Island
Aw man, I'd love to have those demos on my phone. It looks amazing. Do you guys plan on making the demos available?
Just what the title says, what killer apps have you discovered for WP7? I just got an HTC Surround as an insurance replacement for a dead Tilt 2 yesterday. I'm still discovering things but after spending a couple of hours digging through the marketplace I have to admit that I am somewhat disappointed with some of the app selection. So I figured why not come to the experts.
I'm mostly looking for apps available for retail phones but if there is one that has to be sideloaded that you think is worth it then by all means list it.
So far I've got:
Mango - this goes without saying and obviously will require some hacking for moment but it's worth listing.
Zune Pass - Windows Phone's ace in the hole over iPhone. Unlimited access to millions of tracks for $15/mo. Add in the SmartDJ functionality from Mango and it is a real killer app.
Games geoDefense and Max & The Magic Marker . And many other games too )

My fav apps so far:
Thumba Photo Editor: use it daily
MoBudget: best personal finance app but they never update or try to improvise it seems..
FX Rate Watcher: No1 app for currency traders till now..
Currency Tile: good live tile
New York Subway: best ny subway app
Calendar Calculator: innovative
Cocktail Flow: great app with many frequent free additions..
Notepad Plus: good
NewsLab: best news reader, they improved a lot, very frequent updates with active developer response to your problems and suggestions..
Ontrack!: okay app, no improvisation though ..
The following Apps I paid for and than uninstalled it because they were so pathetic, buggy and some just plain useless:
GPS Speedometer: useless, never works, ugly icon.
eWalletGo: pathetic, seems like they released this app just for the heck of it.
handyscan: pathetic, my direct camera pics are more clear than their scan.
My Budget: useless, just record your meaningless transaction, my bank does it too.. Mobudget is way better than this.
One shipping tracker app which was buggy, they are not listed in MP anymore and another NY subway app which was just an app with PDF files of subway map inside, they had no trial otherwise I would have never bought it..
Install the app called Top Developers. It will show you the apps for the best rated developers.
My fav apps are:
Beeez - for twitter
GoVoice - for Google Voice
CalorieCounter
Groupon
iheartradio
Slacker
TuneIn Radio
WalkMan7 (sideloaded)

Twin Blades (won't work on Mango until they update it though)
CarneyVale
Earthworm Jim
Assassin's Creed
Hydro Thunder Go
Tentacles

The main app to get is the Xda-Developers app. Every other app comes second.

I think MoBudget last update was around end of June and make the version to 2.17?
IMO, MoBudget really a killer apps for me in WP7, use it everyday~
wow - No mention of Wordament?
Best game I've ever played on any mobile platform, addictive as hell and it's free! No doubt will be copied by some unscrupulous iPhone games company very soon, but for now it's exclusive to WP7!
Also I like the game Tentacles, very innovative.
As for regular apps, I most regularly use Supertube (neat youtube app, allows downloading videos) and Bingle Maps (combines google and bing maps).

Yes they did, but most of their updates has been fixes and many minor changes.. very little new features.. i cant wait for their Live Tile feature and Graph charts which they have promised since May.. maybe they will bring it after Mango.. right now the app scene has all came to a halt waiting for MANGO it seems.. they should also make data input feature a bit easier, My Budget app had a smoother inputing transaction method, if mo budget could apply the same way it would be perfect for me..
Here is the list of games I like:
Plant Vs. Zombies: endless, ever changing gameplay.. good.
Assasins creed: endless, ever changing gameplay.. xcellent.
fruit ninja: surprisingly good, i thought it was for girls but loved it after i bought.
need for speed: enjoyed it!
zombies!!!: Thumbs up.
Rocket riot: Thumbs up.
Rise of glory: Thumbs up.
the harvest: good game but no replay value.
the sims: okay game.
I dig it: saving gameplay is a pain.. right now i am repeating whole level 2 again from beginning because i accidentally exited the game in end by hitting the bing search button.
UNO, Monopoly, parachute panic and fable coin golf: short game, regret buying but its okay to have in collection for a change..
The following games I hate and I wish I could get my money back:
ilomilo: very hard puzzles, unplayable for me, dont like it at all, dont enjoy playing it.
OMG: I want my money back, do not buy this stupid game.
Oregon's trail: what you see in Demo is what is repeated for next 4 hours, nothing new, if you played demo, you have played whole game.
Sonic: this game is unplayable, they cheat you by presenting surprisingly easy levels on demo, but once u buy it, u wont get past level 2, u wont even finish level 2, stupid controls, unplayable, do not buy, remove this game from MP for the better of others who might fall into this trap by sonic company.
All other games in Xbox WP7, i dont liked their demo so i didnt buy them, right now i am waiting for new games..

Me, People, and Picture Hub. The killer apps of WP7 (Mango), at least for me.
Apps:
Beezz (Twitter app with working live-tile)
Shopping List (nice and simple checklist-app)
Supertube
Accuweather (not that great but does the job, switching when marketplace goes live here in sweden)
Flight Info
tvmatchen.nu (shows what channels are showing various sports atm here in Sweden)
gMaps (Best Google maps app imo)
Navigation (TBT Navigation)
IMDB
Cocktail Flow
DC Comics
Last.fm will probably become a favourite after Mango is release and they can add last.fm-scrobbling from the native music player.
Games:
Tentacles !!!
geoDefense !!!
Rocket Riot !!
OMG
ByeByeBrain
Corona
Star Ninja
Name My Tune (plays music from your phone and you should guess the name of the song)
Penguin
Squid Squish
Pixelman
For me the "killer apps" - if you really want to call it that - are what is already built int, mostly the mail client and Office with the SharePoint connection. Apart from those I use the Amazon Kindle app and Boxfiles (Dropbox client) a lot.
The apps I would see as killer apps - if they were there - would be Lync client (should come with Mango) and Skype (will we see that, now that MS bought them?).
Hey guys. 7712 Mozart here.
Apps I use:
4th & Mayor
Rowi
Facebook/People's hub
Engadget (somehow 7712 messed it up)
LazyTube
Office
Turn by Turn Navi (can't buy full app yet Marketplace not launched here. on a different region)
Flickr Manager (lite)
gMaps
HTC Notes (comes in handy sometimes and animations are sweett)
HTC Photo Enhancer
Thumba Cam
Vevo
WP Central
Mail
Really hoping Microsoft would open up the Marketplace here. Would help loads. And that partnership with Nokia is gonna boost their rep if their marketing gets better. Can hardly find a decent casing here. Tempted to ship on in but Amazon doesn't ship here so meh :/
I realize this might be a tad touchy: Is there a good torrent app for WM7/7.5?
Many of the other forums have this as a Sticky so that members can post apps they find essential to their phone experience. Why don't we?
We need one thread here, as (i think) most of us came from iphone/android phones...and dont know muuch about WP apps....I would really appreciate if everyone can share their must have apps for our phone

Oh Thanks, Perfect...I didnt even know about half of those apps and I have been searching from a week...I hope others will get benefited from it and will shares theirs too..
I use 7 Pass for passwords because I can use the Desktop KeePass to make up and change the file and transfer to the phone. I get the dropbox integration but I have a REAL problem putting my secret, sensitive info out on storage that could be anywhere in the world including countries with less strict privacy and copyright policies. People have already been blackmailed with their secret info that was stored on cloud storage.
Apps I use:
7 - Pass
Weather channel app with live tile support. What I like most about the live tile integration they use is that it flips to a radar image and the current conditions and its free.
Built in Music Player
Camera App from Nokia: Creative Studio. The Build in panoramic feature is REALLY NICE and seemless.
eBay app
GasBuddy
Netflix
ShopSavy
Tango (The one from marketplace NOT labeled Nokia as it uses LTE not just WiFi)
Board Express
Newegg app (New I just started using it)
I use Windows Phone News about 5 times a day. Doing so I have followed tips to new apps and games that I got for free in their opening trial runs. Many are a couple bucks to buy now, but I got them for free.
Send to WP7 (I use this everyday, allows you to send the webpage/file to you phone from your desktop, Chrome to Phone was its old name or name on android.)
SkyDrive (Connects you to your Skydrive account and the 26GB of storage it gives you)
ScoreMobile (All sports scores live and past)
YouTube Pro (Download/Upload/Store on/from phone HD videos from Youtube)
Lyrics (Great lyrics app)
8Tracks & Mixtapes (Community created music mixes, streaming, select)
TuneIn Radio(If a radio station streams, they probably have it.
WpFandora (Pandora Client, Beautiful design)
Translator (Bing, new update makes for a fun app Voice/Vision/Text input/output methods)
Thumba Photo Editor Best photo editing app I have used for windows phone)
Concerts (Find where your favorite band is playing next)
FastXDA (Read only app for XDA forums, but it is fast, real fast)
Image Map Plus (Shows where your pics were taken on a map.)
ARMED! (Fun game, probably best non Xbox live game, and really it should be.)
SpellShipTactics (Interactive game of chess'ish, don't just move pieces, but controll and upgrade them in space battles.)
Wordament (Boggle type word game, you vs the internet, you could be playing ~1,000 other people in a game that starts every 2.5 minutes, last 2 minutes)
I have gone from an HD7 to the HTC Radar, and now the Lumia 900. Here is what has earned their keep in my Windows Phones:
Communication & Security
Freetalk - is a Google voice client. I couldn't indulge in my multi-phone, multi-carrier, multi-phone number lifestyle without Gogle Voice.
Rowi - a very full-featured Twitter client.
Skype - it's official! Version 1.0 was released on Friday. The Lumia 900 is great for Skype with the front camera.
Skydrive- this should be on every Windows Phone by default. 16 gb memory limit got you down? No problem! Set all your photos to automatically upload to Skydrive. Move downloaded files on to Skydrive.
LastPass - Password manager, (like 7 Pass). THe program is free to use on your Windows and Mac desktop, but you have to subscribe ($25/year) to use the mobile clients (WP7, iPhone, Android). I like it because it will fill out all passwords for me, generate secure new passwords, and store other secure information (credit cards, software licences).
Photo & Entertainment
Creative Studio - another great Nokia freebie that handles basic picture editing tasks (crop, exposure, color, contrast) as well as some artistic filters you can apply.
Picasa Metro - a client for Google Picasa Photos web service. I can upload pics from the phone to my Picasa folders, and use my Picasa pictures for things like backgrounds on the phone.
Fandango - see what's playing in movie theaters near you and buy tickets.
Netflix - a must have if you are a subscriber.
Vevo - primary site for music videos.
BBC Radio Player - listen to live BBC broadcasts. I am a big fan of programs in BBC 1, BBC 2, BBC London, and BBC Scotland. This plugs me in to those progams and all the goings on in the UK.
Reading
Weave - a deluxe RSS newsreader. Even if you don't have feeds that you follow, Weave lets you just point to subjects in which you are interested and it pulls in the top feeds for that topic. For example if you check the topic "Windows Phone" you will get Engadget, WMPoweruser, WPCentral, and others. You can uncheck any specific feeds in which you are not interested. This eliminates the need for individual reader apps (CNN, USA Today, Engadget, etc.) and gives me a single place to read everything. At the other end of the scale, you can import your entire Google Reader subscription list.
XDA-Developers - duh!
XMarks - all my bookmarks from my desktop are here on the phone.
Amazon Kindle - all my books available here.
CNN, ESPN, USA Today, Engadget, WPCentral - these are all well designed news apps with live tile support.
Shopping
eBay - A must-have for e-bay buyers and sellers.
Amazon Mobile - great for impulse buying new gadgets you read about in Weave!
Misc
Nokia Maps and Nokia Drive - Hey fellow Windows Phone owners, we have great turn-by-turn directions for FREE from Nokia, so neener, neener, neener!
Evernote - I couldn't work without this multi-platform note taking / web clipping application. Whenever I find something on the web that I might need later I paste it into Evernote and add subject tags. That way I can pull it up any time in the future. There are versions for WP7, iPhone, Android, Nokia Symbian, Windows desktop and Mac. All information is kept in sync between all your devices.
Timer - it's just a timer, like you have on your stove or microwave. But I use it all the time for cooking and knowing when to take the clothes out of the wash.

have you used the scan app in Bing search? How does that compare for you? I tried both and use the Bing one now.

I have used both scan apps. The thing I worry about with Bing is someone being shown to me because they paid bing to be at the top of the list (like google does).
I have used both and found that bing might be more complete on barcodes.

Not sure how to take that. Super Bowl ads that we see and sometimes love, go to the companies that pay for them. Nothing gets on the airwaves anymore with $$$.
Run Keeper - Been using this for over a year and still feel this is the best Run Tracker on the market. Track run, calories burn, miles ran, weight loss and seamless integration to the website for charts, graphs and facebook sharing
Interval Timer - Create workout, interval / crossfit training, etc.
or
XTREME Tabata - Simple timer to track your tabata workout. Slick interface
WpFandora - 3rd Party Pandora app. Great 3rd party app.
or
Slacker Radio
Wiztiles - although limited due to restrictions, you can create custom tiles and have certian links. You can put a backside pic and text of the type of link
Wikitude - augmented browser
White Noise - Great sound machine for sleep or relaxation. Not as good as Android version, but still nice. Needs some polishing though.
PhotoFunia - Fun app to alter pics, put a face on a hockey player, become an astronaut, billboard, etc. Always a cool app for altering pics.
Pageonce - track all your bills, credit card payments and due dates in one site. Great tool for the money spender and procrastinators
Latitude Auto Update - Background service app that updates your latitude location for people who have accounts and like for friends and family to keep in touch with their location
gMaps - a decent alternative to get google maps. I really just use it for the Latitude function to track my friends and family since everyone still is on Android.
Flixster - Movie app like Fandango
ConnectivityShortcut - simple shortcuts to your Wifi, Bluetooth, Cell Data, and Airplane Mode. Creates tiles for them.
AnTuTu Benchmark - Benchmark testing
Creative Studio by Nokia - simple app for pics. Some filters, crops etc. I just use it for the panoramic feature. Works pretty good.
Flashlight 7 - flashlight
Vimeo - Vimeo video app. How there's not one for YouTube is beyond me I'd like a dedicated app, not an app that links to the mobile site
Everything else has been pretty much mention

Not sure how to take that. Super Bowl ads that we see and sometimes love, go to the companies that pay for them. Nothing gets on the airwaves anymore with $$$.

Once upon a time search engines showed you results based on relevance to your query. Now anyone with enough money can be put up higher on the list than what is relevant.
Thanks to all those who figured out how to make a buck off of my searches =/
A couple that haven't been mentioned yet:
Adobe Reader
Though not essential, if you receive PDF files on your email and want to open them, you will need it.
Baconit
Mentioned before, but deserves way more recognition. Incredible and smooth experience to browse reddit. Highly recommend it.
Diagnostics
Not an app from the Marketplace, but very handy to have. Dial ##634# on your phone keypad and it will automatically download it. This app allows you to run a plethora of diagnostic tools on your phone, including screen color tests, vibration tests, camera flash test (eliminates the use of apps like Flashlight-X), battery status tests, and so on.
Flixster
A good alternative to the IMDB app. Has issues with using GPS though.
Whatsapp
Everyone knows this one. Cross-platform IM app. Uses data. Push notifications work fine, but alerts are not app specific, so if you have vibrate and/or ring enabled, you will receive an alert EVERY time someone messages you (can be a problem when having group chats). Push can be turned off within the app, but it sort of defeats the purpose if you won't know who messaged you until you open the app.
Wikipanda
Best Wikipedia app I've tried. Clean and stable.
InstantReddit
FailBlog
Flashlight XT (no ads)
UC (web browser)
WolframAlpha
Youtube Pro

Edit: Sorry for getting off topic
