Yes it needs to be "activated"
You need to set Live Account to do use it fully.

I would assume Hard reset
Once you add your Windows Live ID, you cannot remove it (at least not at the moment). You would need to completely reset your phone to use a new Live ID.
i thought as much, thanks for the quick replies
could somebody with an american live id please list the xbox live games listed in the marketplace please?
or at least just check if 'fruit ninja' is there
would be much appreciated

You don't need a Live ID to browse the Zune Marketplace and see what's in there

Testing apps on a phone

Hi all apologies if this doesnt belong here - i dont post much.
But i had a question in relation to testing an app im developing on a real phone as opposed to the emulator on PC.
I'm really hoping u dont have to register as a developer before u can actually test the app ?
I know the phone needs developer unlocking but surely they should allow testing first - who know when i'll need/want to put the app on the marketplace.
Thx

You need to be registered and have your identity verified before you can unlock your phone for development use. Very annoying for students who don't have their identities verified until after they submit an app for certification.

It's very easy to get by this problem... Submit a blank WM 6.5 application. It will get denied and you will get verified.
So there is now way to deploy tools to your own phone without paying 99$ if you are not a student?
that has always existed... you need to have an @edu account registered MS under the DreamSpark program, which only your school/university can do i believe (as it requires verification, which i didn't bother with).
Yeah ok, i´m no student and a dont want to pay to build some apps form my own phone...

They didn't do it to stop that, they did it to slow piracy, that combined with the 10 sideloaded app limit does put a dis-incentive to abusing this method.
Also if an app is good enough for you, perhaps it'd do well as a free or paid app on the marketplace.

New Windows Phone Store site posing problems for some of us.

We all last week saw changes and redesigns made to the Windows Phone Store site and I think this is becoming a problem for some of us. The problem is you really need to verify your phone number when reinstalling an app from the site and what will you do when your country is not listed?? You can never go to the next step if you don't provide a phone number and how can I provide a phone number when my country (Ghana) is not listed? thus making me unable to install my apps...this is not good and would love a solution to this problem. Microsoft really needs to reconsider this step, it's a blockade for non-listed country users with Windows Phones to get our apps.
This ain't good. Just had a reply from Windows Phone support and the whole story now is you really have to forget about Windows Phone now if your country or region isn't listed because you can never purchase or download any app, since they've now introduced phone number verification..... just Great Microsoft, thanks for your new site changes and redesign :'(

Strange - no verification in NZ store, and I love the changes overall.

i managed it with my phone number +387 for my country, and my number after it, but in the prefix i selected some country there, i think it must not be your country and now i can install apps from web marketplace like before the update, directly to my phone

it is legal i think Microsoft wants our numbers that they can send us ads, and we pay for it... i read on the faqs site that the received sms we pay. and that the sms are only if we dont have internet on our wp7, so that you receive a link to the app to install it later. but with email it was good like it was... now it is a mess

Weird location related issues with Google play apps

Hello. I have a weird problem. Nowadays I live in Poland and wanted to install some apps, like zalando or olx.pl from Google play market. Sadly, I couldn't do this, coz it said, that it's not allowed in my country. I don't really know, why I get such a message? It's rom fault or maybe something else? Plz help, if there is a fix for it (yes, I know I can install it from anywhere else, but I want it from Google play). ROM Freedom OS, OP3 3003.
Those apps are not available in your country nothing you can do really :crying:

But they are for Poland and I live in Poland, WTF? All my friends have those apps.
Maybe it has something to do with your google account - when you have register for it - what country you were in? I remember somebody was having similar problem.

as far as I know you have to call google support for that, but cannot remember if they were actually able to do this change or not.

i need vpn urgent !!

hey all
please i need a working free vpn to make a phone call via social application
any help ?!!
Use the free one built into the wifi app?
wireguard
Amazing that someone hasn't heard of Google Play where there is an untold number of free VPN's. I'll even bet that a quick Google will find a few. Either is going to be faster than posting on a forum and having to wait for aomeone to answer your plea. But then, some people just have to be led.
Makes me wonder how people who post this sort of moronic question have managed to sign up for the forum in the first place, or indeed found it at all. Or are we being trolled?

Thank you, and it's still pathetic that someone doesn't know how to search. And BTW, learn how to post questions that fully explain your problem. A quick search found this
https://www.guidingtech.com/58822/free-vpn-android-apps-bypass-country/
https://www.hongkiat.com/blog/free-android-vpn-apps/
I have to say that we don't know the position of @amjadRR
So his question is legit.
If you have never been to a country like China for example you won't understand @Tel864
But in short: Google is blocked in China and that means also Google services don't work there. Therefore you can't just google or download something in the Playstore, since the playstore is also blocked. So it's not that easy to get a VPN if you're in China.
I've been there for a year. Luckily I knew that before I went there, so I downloaded some VPN's before.
You can't just assume that everyone is living in a developed country or assume anything at all...
Anyway, if you need a download link for a VPN app let me know @amjadRR.
Thank you for your reply
Yes i wish to have a free vpn working in countries like uae prohibit vpn

I downloaded all these vpn and not working and so.e of them work and after few days it stop work :crying:
@amjadRR the reason for these VPNs not working is very simple. They are in the store, so of course the government is gonna block them.
But as I said earlier in this forum, get wireguard.
This one might work and it is for free.
You just need to download the VPN profiles and open them with the wireguard app.

Nothing assumed and I have been there. What I assume is someone knowing how to post a question on forums so they can get the information they need. These forums are packed full of lazy people that would rather ask for something rather than search. BTW, there is a way to search in China and find those things. A free VPN is most likely not going to work. VYPRVPNI will make itself invisible and is what I used.
