Man I couldn't read the whole thing He makes it sound like you can set up the phone to almost hd quality video watching.
well my brain hurts again...
Exactly.... So glad I don't have to read that everyday in this forum anymore.
Geez... I didn't realize this thread was a parody of his posts at first. I got all frustrated for a few seconds there. But that was classic!
what did he actually do to get banned? i mean he did spam, but all those apps work didnt they?
y'know...I definitely dont miss him but it sure is quiet in here now
yeah well he also was Wizzstar @ the old dashsmartzone or mobile smartzone.
Definitely one of a kind

if you are really trying to simulate a tech post, you will need to bump it a few times every day to self promote.
"this is the greatest uber-cool playa hatas edition mega supreme 2.15463"
"you didnt read the directions, this is the best player ever (for this week)"
"if the video is not as clear as blueray, you screwed something up"
and my favorite "you stole my player that I stole and rebadged fair and square" (paraphrasing, but not much!)

I don't know I saw that too but I just skimmed over the whole post as it was all garble to me. I think he was implying that the "Ultra-Mega Sonic Blu-Ray all the fruity colors of the rainbow Dolby surround sound heat seeking killer media player sent from SKYNET" was sent from outer space by aliens from Mars, and was released by NASA or something! Initially it was developed by the aliens as software for an ultra-pulsating anal probe but when that failed they decided to make a few tweaks and BAM !!! - the Ultra-Mega Sonic Blu-Ray player thingy was born! We should all sit back and behold this most awesome piece of alien technology! Woooooow!!!

when i saw the post thru the link of where technology is now, i noticed that the first 5 posts underneath it had no comments at all about the integrity of the post itself. is it just us, or are those members effed up?
Could very well be.... Looks like the aliens got to them through the subliminal message contained in Technology's post...

@Sideburnt - Why ask a silly question like 'You look a bit nobbish in your avatar'? Was there any need for that? Keep that attitude up and your one step away from being banned!!
This is a community based are sharing knowledge where people have the freedom to express views and opinions on phone related topics, not on avatars and peoples names. Lets leave the childish behaviour in the playground shall we and get back to doing what we enjoy most....playing with our phones!!

Once again Spartan takes the high ground, when I stupidly get annoyed by the school bully being mean to the new kid and retaliate by knocking the bully's lunch on the floor... When will I learn?
WTF?
Stop fooling around guys, this thread is really good.
I suggest erasing this one and making a new one with the same topic.
I would also like to know if anyone came across some good stuff...
I am personally checking almost every day if there is something new.
But still nothing that is that much of interest.
Lately it was PointUI2 - I really like it but I am gonna stick with SPB Mobile Shell 2 for some time. But PointUI is really nice and has good functions.
So who's next?
Anyway way back to topic, anythink interesting for touch HD that stays interesting for more than 5mins. I would recommend Music ID and the default youtube app
Music ID = http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=439974
Fairplay. The least I can do is make a constructive addition to this thread.
And that is.... Drum roll.... PDAcraft paint http://www.pdacraft.com/paint.php
A very cool little a painting/drawing app that works on the HD. Hours of fun

A better question might be, what exactly do you want your phone to do?
Other than the built in stuff, (the camera, the mp3 player, video player and internet tablet... is there something more that youare after?
GRemote: is **** hot... allowing you to control media player on your PC.
Music ID: is essential if you have even a passing interest in music.
An RSS reader: to have all your news delivered to your phone just in time for breakfast and/or lunch breaks.
"MYplayer": is worth a try if you are having trouble with the getting iplayer to work.
omniano: is good for a laugh, but without multi touch very limited
S2P: is nice to flick through your album covers...
Google maps and live search maps: do what they say on the tin.
Also Microsoft voice commander is quite fun... at times even useful.
Microsoft Recite is good too - a dictaphone with speech search (altho not touchscreen which is annoying).

could you post some links to these apps!!!!
ill try to find some links but i cant find all of them!!!
hey guys !! how is it going ???
hoooooooly cow, whoa there, just whoa.
seriously buddy, I wasn't ripping into you you started off with a pretty mundane post and in my infinate bordeom I wrote a simple lame observation and then had fun with it, and as for the others jumping in suggesting that I get banned, thats...thats insane thats not 'attitude' your reading its light heartedness quit jumping on the 'troll TROLL TROLLL!!!' bandwaggon its overreactive and very offputting to those of us who enjoy this forum and want to inject a little humanity into it.
Anyway this has surprisingly turned into a semi interesting post;
QuickMark http://www.quickmark.cn/En/basic/index.asp has been fun, it scans in barcodes and you can link it to a central database such as upcdatabase.com, it can re-encode QR codes into url's and contact information etc. great fun to make your own QR/Barcodes.
Scrobble http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=474373 is so far the best port of Scrabble on the WM platform, the guys done a cracking job and allowed custom dictionaries to be used.
I think Xtract has been mentioned, I lovely little game, but painfully short and easy.
Fair enough mate, you clearly didn't mean to offend the guy. That's the problem with making jokes in writing. It's very easy to missinterpret. If you look back at what you initialy said, you can see why we might of thought you were just being out of order rather than tounge in cheek.
Anyway, apologies if I reacted a little harshly myself. I got a bit carried away

this gave me a good laugh. shame about the over-eager bashing replies - i reckon it's not just typographic confusion which text creates, it's national too. it's pretty much the job of British people to lightheartedly take the piss out of each other all the time.

I originally posted this on deviantART earlier today but have received no responses. 1800PocketPC recommended that I also try here. I didn't even think there may be designers lurking in the developer ranks...!
[EDIT: Apparently I'm not allowed to add a link to back-reference the deviantART link because I'm a newbie.]
I'm a software developer from the UK with absolutely no graphical ability. None. Every time I come here and see the awesome visuals that you guys produce I am literally blown away. The sheer range and quality of graphics are mind-blowing.
I'm primarily a web developer but in my past I've been involved with creating Flash-based games along with designers, but my eye's recently been caught by the Windows Phone 7 system that Microsoft are producing and the XNA architecture that you can use to develop games for it.
If you don't know, basically MS are throwing a tonne of money at their new phone operating system (coming out in a couple of months) and will have an application ecosystem similar to Apple's. My plan is to get a few (simple) 2D retro-style games up on their app store to try and capitalise on this surge of new people.
I am more than capable of developing the architecture for the game. I have experience in developing tile-based gaming engines and have already produced one example of a top-down "fighter" game using XNA and some dodgy graphics as a proof-of-concept. My plan is to take this and some other games I have ideas for, develop them in conjunction with a designer (or two) and put them on the marketplace.
I'm looking for someone interested in creating some retro-style game graphics/sprites to help me achieve the goal of selling these games and making us both - hopefully - some money. I'm hoping that someone out there there's someone, possibly a student, who'd like help. Even if the games don't get off the ground (and/or don't make any money), I will provide Windows-executables of the game that the artist might be able to use for course credit, CV, or something similar.
Please note that this is not a paid job. Not up-front, at least. However it is something that I hope will take off and we can arrange a profit-share for. I'm willing to accept the costs of getting onto the approved-developer-list (so that we can submit applications).
Is anyone interested?
Craig.

I have some cogs turning in my head about a variant of audiosurf, except its more of a puzzle, with your favorite tunes. I really think it will take off if its done right, I just need the know-how to develop it myself
Cheers guys
Have emailed you both. Anyone else interested?
I think this is a great idea and my plan is to work with a number of designers on a number of different games/applications/projects over the coming few months, so as many as possible!

I'm interested. I have experience in Photoshop (7 years) and am a beginner in character design and fine arts as well. Shoot me an email and I'll show you some of my work.

Hello, I write you from CK7 Studios, a new indie game development company.
We are releasing My Little Tower Defense, a game for Windows Phone, on october, as the device is released.
We would like people to try our game before it's launched, and we have uploaded a demo to ck7studios dot com (works on Silverlight). Please check it, we are sure it will be really fun for you.
Just share any of your thought about the game in the thread, we will really appreciate them to improve our game before launching.
Thanks for your time!
Interesting game but very hard to play with a mouse
Is it hard? We have been working to make it easier from previous versions, but maybe it's not completely polished. Could you tell us more about the problem please... is the game too fast? it does not recognize your clicks? it is stresful with lots of enemies on screen?
Anyway, thanks for your tips!

Definitely a little hard to play with a mouse since you can only interact with one object at a time. Fun concept though!
Nice game.... It's OK for me to play with the mouse, but don't know how will be playing it with fingers, especially when you put 2 thumbs over the display and can't see anything
1. Seems like an interesting game with a fun concept.
2. The step up between the 2nd and 3rd round on level 1 seemed a little abrupt. You go from having a couple of towers and a few bad guys to having an onslaught of bad guys with sheep flying everywhere. Maybe introduce the black sheep a round or level after the white sheep and not simultaneously?
3. The game would definitely benefit from multi-touch, which is impossible to assess using a mouse. Hopefully you have implemented this in the phone version.
4. This is just a style thing, but the English on the instructions has some grammatical errors. Not sure where you are from, but if the game will be released in English, it might be worth it to iron that out.
Great effort, look forward to trying the release!

Just to detract from all the hater posts on here lately, I just wanted to say that I just came onboard from android and, aside from the lack of good games, I really do love my wp7.
I have been extremely happy so far!
Which phone did you go with?
I played with the HTC Surround (what was HTC thinking?) with Mango on it and it was nice. Can't wait til I get one.
I traded my HTC incredible s for an lg quantum and haven't looked back!
nice and welcome! have had my focus for over a year now, and enjoy it every day I've had. which is pretty remarkable since people get bored of phones so quickly.

Another happy WP7 user. All it takes is for people to use one in a context of owning it and they will be hooked. By the way, there are some excellent games. You just have to browse through them. You can try many of them that are paid. I have a large selection in my collection and can list them for you if you need.

What i miss the most is a good first person shooter
I can live with the lack of games though, everything else makes it totally worthwhile imo..
Never any lag, and I don't feel like I need to constantly flash or tweak my device.
Makes me much more productive in other areas of my life hahah

I've had my HTC trophy since it came out in the spring/summer on vzw. i had a droid x before, and I don't miss android. Every month I would have to flash my phone so it would be fast again. Not needed with wp7. I love the OS, but the phone could have better specs.
Sent from my mwp6985 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Welcome on board!
I would recommend pro evo soccer but then I guess football isn't everyone's taste would be good to see some other sports games, I think baseball could cross to phone really well and cricket. Could also do American football and rugby in a similar way to pes could use swipe controls for kicks and scrums etc to add extra elements.
Ps welcome onboard I to came from android and love it. Android still has a place in my heart but more in tablets now. =)

It is a challenging game if you put your time in it

It can be. I usually play to about the 10th level and then restart. I like it up to the 10th level. After that it becomes a pain and un-fun.
Finally a thread without bad karma getting quite rare now...
And welcome to WP7 Apps that I recommend:
AccuWeather - has the best LiveTile for weather right now
kik/whatsapp
weave - good news app
LazyTube - best youtube app
TuneIn Radio - best radio app with background streaming
Appflow - quite a must have
CocktailFlow - very nice app for making cocktails
imdb - for movies, obviously
for games:
Arcane's TD Free
Chicken Story Plus
Broken Wing Plus
Bobble Biker
FastBall 2
Jewel³
Krashlander Free
Monster Stack
Square Off Free - very nice one
Pulse, best news app ever. Best live tiles too.
Lazytube is ok.
I can't recommend a game yet.
