the soft is under development, and the skin is enough "rustik", but it should become a must have.
drive and enjoy !

the image is too large so it wasn't upload on the first post

The only needs is to be many users on the road and if your data account is free, you can use everywhere.
Just hope to be enough users in front of you to give information to server but it’s everybody problem

I realize not everyone lives in the US, but not everyone lives in France either...

I always thought XDA was a non-US site to begin with...

Hi guys,
4 months since the last answer on this thread... It's time to "up" this thread once again !
First of all : don't use the zip file provided in the post #2, because it's really really too old now.
Go to www.mobbyway.com to download the latest version (v21 for the moment !)
Many things have changed with this brilliant software...
About 4 to 5 new versions release, a growing and growing amount of users (especially since the beginning of september) and an android version release . And a really reactive forum and team.
Iphone version should be available in November and the amount of informatics dummies that are using "this high technology phone" (hum hum) will, I hope, really increase again the number of users.
I use this software for 3 months and the number of user has amazingly increased !
Nevermore alone on the road ;-)
As said previously, it's a software written in France but also used in Belgium, Netherlands.
If the law allow it (for instance in Germany this kind of software is not allowed), I think you can use it all over the world (it's just GPS coordinates that are transmitted, and I think they will not be stopped at the border ;-)
You should give it a try, because it's really impressive (and free).
Remember that this kind of software is "cooperative" so, even if there are not many users in the beginning, continue to use it and this will reinforce the community.
That's what we call in French a "snow ball effect" (if this snow ball downs a slope)

MS has just launched WP7 in Thailand with the HD7 and it has already sold out.

"Really!"

Depends if its sold out because of lack of stock, like what happened with the Euro launch. Not really worth mentioning unless the number of units sold is known.

actually it still shows demand is higher than expectation, regardless of the figures this is still a good sign. MS is putting in this much work on something they expected to have low initial sales shows they are looking at a longer picture. I still firmly believe that this first batch of devices is just a soft launch and we will soon see the real push once MS has patched the holes that are being used to attack them. I think MS are doing a great job with the software and if they can get the right push then the sales will show reward for there effort. I don't think it will be to long before we see stands in shopping centres demoing phones and pushing the brand but MS will want everything in place first.

I am one of Thai who rushed to buy HD7 on the first day it launched.
It seems like a good news that HD7 has been sold out. Anyway, what I know is that only 500 units are coming into Thailand, just to test the market.
Many people delay their decisions to buy WP7 as there is no Thai (also east Asian language) support. WP7 now cannot display Thai language. Thai can be typed via the third party application that allows posting only to SMS, e-mail, facebook status, and foursquare shout.
Also, we cannot buy any applications from marketplace as it has not yet supported Thailand.
It sounds strange why MS has chosen to launch its product in Thailand without Thai language support. I'm quite sure that East Asian language support is still not yet to come in this coming minor update in February.

Microsoft confirms Tango and Apollo as future updates for Windows Phone 7

While we are waiting for the arrival of Windows Phone Mango, A confirmation comes from Microsoft of the next update for Windows Phone 7 and objectives that will guide the development of Windows Phone.
The news is based on what was said by the speakers at the Microsoft MSDN seminar held in Hong Kong.
According to reports that I heard, it would seem that Tango will not be a major update, but a simple optimization of the mobile medium / low.Tango should also bring substantial improvements in Bing services.
The next major update will then be Apollo, but there is no news yet about it, but certainly the news will be similar to Mango.

I wait for the day that you and these other goonies stop trolling this section. A post that is informative about Windows Phone has to be turned into some crap fest by you... It's like it excites you to be such a douche.

I think you were addressing me as well?
Look man, I always like reading your posts. You're very calm and collected and usually bring great insights.
I'm a huge wp7 fan. I couldn't love it more. However look at the issues with the NoDo update. I can't seriously believe that anyone thinks Mango will be out before Q2 2012. And it doesn't matter when they push to carriers. What matters is on my device.
I'm also getting frustrated at the lack of funcitionality. I have no money invested in this platform. I don't care if it'll come with Apollo. Why can't I watch AVI's now? Or why will this mobile hotspot be carrier-specific (which means us Canadians won't get it). And why is Bing stripped down for Canada? And Zune?
I use hotmail, xbox, and windows 7 at home. WP7 fits my "ecosystem" perfectly. It's just getting more and more frustrating. And seeing some post about updates makes me roll my eyes. Let's see how Mango gets handled first before we jump ahead to all these other ones.
I'm not trolling. This is me using this forum as an outlet.

French carrier Orange already has Mango phones to sell

It seems that a lot of carriers are ready to deploy Mango. French carrier Orange is one of them. Recently, a french owner of a LG Optimus 7 named Lionel used the warranty of his phone to get it replaced with a new one. I can't say how amazed he was when he noticed that his new device was already running WP 7.5 Mango !
Here's a picture he took himself to prove his statement :

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then he declared : everything is smoother and faster. Apps are integreted better. Every day I figure out another small feature that makes WP7 so wonderful. I'm so thrilled !
This great news show us mango is ready to be delivered and installed, yet Microsoft is still keeping it in a secret drawer no one has the key for.
From smartphonefrance.info

It's the same with Dell, I have a feeling that Mango will be released on the 23rd though.

Incorrect: Autumn begins on 1st September
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autumn
Autumn = Fall incase you were unsure
I've seen a few people say that begining of September is not Fall so now you can relay this correction if you see it posted.
Ofc if you're from North America you have diffrent ways of doing every thing compared to the rest of the world so maybe later in September (ie the September equinox) is when you consider Autumn to start, Dam moon lovers

Given that here in Russia they started selling WP7 phones on Sep 16th, the first phone is Mozart, and it runs Mango, it's safe to say that the update is ready, with OEM drivers and all that.
So I guess there may be two reasons for the delay:
1. There are problems with Microsoft's update infrastructure.
2. Microsoft is waiting for AT&T (and probably other important carriers) or Samsung to avoid the PR trouble they ran into last time.
On a side note, a weird thing is that Mozart is marked as "Top seller" on MTS (largest Russian operator) website, and it seems to have sold out in most stores over the weekend.

Actually there are two definitions. Either you seperate the seasons into months and then Fall is September, October and November.
But it is more accurate to take the tropic of cancer/capricorn into account because these acutally have a meaning and are not made up dates, and then September 23rd is the start of fall.
Also Joe Belfiore tweeted a link to a webpage stating september 23rd is the start of fall and that's all that really matters.

Just a random guess on my behalf I didn't say it was the date.

General Reminder if you want to opt-out of arbitration (within 30 days of activation)

At Reddit (be sure to upvote the author's post there) I saw this and thought it would be a good idea to share here:

For those who do not want to be bound to Google's arbitration process to settle disputes nor want to lose their right to any class action lawsuits regarding your new devices, don't forget to opt out. You have 30 days from the date of activation of device.
Here is the information on their arbitration policy. Opt out information is listed in number 9: https://support.google.com/store/answer/9427031?hl=en
Here is the direct opt out link from the above policy(you need your device name and serial number): g.co/devicearbitration/optout

Google sucks... the whole corporation looks like it's going into a flat spin now
The writing's on the wall...
I have zero confidence in Google at this point.
"With Google you're not the customer, you're the product."

Eh, that's nonsense. Arbitration is an opt-IN alternative to litigation, which is only available if both the claimant (you) and the defendant (vendor) agree to use that process.

I doubt it's binding. Next Google will want a nondisclosure agreement to use their products.

Boycott them. I am. I never will buy their devices and now anything running on Android 11 or 12.
Google invariably screws up everything they keep "improving".
Now they want to stick you with their failure$ legally. Hell no.
At this point I think a pre 2021 device/OS is a better choice for reliability and functionality.
2020 was the zenith... so far. Any improvements after that came a high cost of lose of functionality, reliability and battery life.
And do send Google feedback and share the wuv...
