About a month ago, MS announced there are about 9000 apps on the marketplace and that number is growing about 100 apps daily (linky:
http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_...ips-policies-and-regional-access-program.aspx )
Today I've accidentally checked total number of apps on zest market, and the number is ... 7418 apps only Device specific markets (like tmode, htc, samsung, att) have a very limited number of apps (around 30 total).
My question is: there are the other 3000++ apps? However, I've checked marketplace only for en-US lang and didn't compare marketplace results for different languages.

wp7applist says there are 12588 apps in the USA Marketplace.
Perhaps you should stop downloading the apps for free...

I don't know where and how they got that number. I can only trust my own code and query responses I've made My software shown 7418 apps only (valid today, 3 p.m. EST).
Well, get to counting because your code and query is off.
You may count by yourself (of course if you know how)... API is well known, query is very simple and not secured.
Microsoft said last week that there are 11,500 unique apps in the marketplace, with 2,000 being added in the two weeks leading up to 31/3. That figure sits about right with the "100 apps a day" claim. WP7AppList reporting over 12,500 now again fits with these claims.
It does look like your figures might possibly be wrong, or both Microsoft an WP7AL are counting apps that you don't?

You're taking this personally, and you shouldn't be. They're just pointing out that in the context of this situation, you ARE 'some random guy' whether you like it or not. Users here are just stating the point that multiple sources report the same thing, and I doubt they would be skewing their numbers by 6000 apps to screw over your code...

How does the fact this is a developer-oriented forum make you any less of a random guy? Also, this isn't really a developer-oriented forum as you've posted in the "Windows Phone 7 General" part of the forums.
In any case, there is definitely something off with your code. To prove it I quickly threw some code together and according to this there are currently 11820 unique active apps in Zest/en-us.
The reason WP7appslist does not agree with my count is because that site lists applications that have subsequentially been unpublished - such as Li'Messenger. My code does not.
Output from app below.

OK, just spent 15 minutes and made a console app (in attachment).
To compile, run VS 2010 command prompt and type: csc mpcounter.cs
Run and see result. You may also provide command line param, a file name. App in that case will save all found app titles to that file in UTF8 text format. Example: mpcounter.exe apps.txt
P.S. To "morality keepers" and "copyright protectors": there is nothing "hacking" or "secure" in my code; nothing what mid-level programmer can't wrote in half an hour using google.

Coming to a developers forum and showing them that you are illegally downloading their apps is going to get you some negative, off-topic remarks. That's just the nature of the beast in letting people know you're stealing from them.

Sure
Remove cost=any from your querystring and you get the same results as my app as posted above and WP7applist (inactive entries taken into account).
I haven't double checked the results, but I am guessing that cost=any only returns apps that actually has a cost (i.e. not free ones).
---edit---
Confirmed. Including cost=any will only return apps with an actual cost attached.
You can attack this in several ways, but the easiest is simply to not include the cost variable at all.

Where is he talking about illegally downloading them? He is counting them. While the APIs for this are not exactly public they are well known and even Brandon Watson is using them to track releases / stats. As well as a ****load of other websites etc.

Also, different roms will need redesign the layout. (Or else, the number will not match!)But it is easy for me to do so! However, I will not publish them in free of charge now. For those who are polite, friendly, sincere and rational guys, I will still extend my helping hand to them and treat them as my friends. Just like in this post of our forum

It looks great mate!...will give a tray for this dial pad

The problem with registering with any new site is that within 1 week of registering on it (no matter what type of site it is), is that your spam content seems to increase and people then have access to your IP (which leads to trojans, attacks, etc.).
I, like most people, like to keep as much of my information for myself. And, that whole attack thing, it just sucks.
I never got good marks for sharing in grade school.
That being said, I personally am glad that you have shared this with us. At least with the mirrors listed, you know where your file is being distributed. It is not like someone put it on emule and you have no earthly idea where it is.

When you say "All rights" are you talking about the:
The IPHONE brand?
The Artwork including icons?
About the legal stuff:
If you are giving this "software" away for free, under which license is your work protected?
Can we have a copy of such license, if any?
Please with your answer provide the country of origin as well as any other pertinent information within the legal framework.
Thank you.

Well, I know I'm rather noob but maybe someone more clever could think it out...
We have many attempts to flash our devices with "white screen effect".
Some of us reports that have bad blocks, but in different areas. Think that mayby this is way with no way out.
Symptom remains the same always. White screen.
Important is that in fact - system works good (eg filesystem, core, etc...). After taping a screen with stylus - we can calibrate it and go on.
Then we have today screen with no background, a telephone pad with no background, media player with no background... In fact it's such annoying that we can't use our system.
We can even use our camera and record a video or take a picture, but we can not see it.
But not always... if we use "full screen" mode - we can see our films... - strange? isn't it?
Maybe system after flash have some "very small" defect concerning missing ability to scaling down bitmaps or something?
Maybe some stupid modification of graphical engine of our phone after flash will result in getting fully healthy system?
Maybe someone wiser will think it out?

Fully support xelashiu. The dialpad is a nice job.
Building a dialpad is quite difficult, i fully understand the feeling of xelashiu.
Thanks alot for this dialer I really like it
xelashiu, you are doing an excellent job with these dialpads, and it is completely within your right to restrict others from mirroring your works. However, you must make it clear on your website and/or in your posts what rights are given to people in regard to your works. If it is just a download without any license info, people will usually assume "public domain" which means anyone can do anything with it. I am not saying that people should assume that, nor am I saying that it's a correct assumption. What I am saying is that you should tell people what they can and can't do with your works, otherwise they will assume total freedom.
Please do not let this incident discourage you from making more of your great dialpads.
For those of you who have a psp you may know something about Portals. Offline web pages that give you the feel of using a different operating system. Well I've been working on making portals originally designed for the psp compatible with the KIN and then hosting them on a server due to KIN not being able to load web pages from it's flash storage.
I call the project I am currently working on KINdroid. It is based on the verminedroid PSP portal which is a PITA to work with because of the fact that it was programmed in french.
*UPDATE*
Recent changes include:
Fixed Maps link
Fixed calculator app
Added calendar link
Fixed weather link
Fixed duplicate backgrounds on some pages
Changed IM link to ebuddy

Give it a try yourself by going to http://173.89.0.47 on your KIN
Also try the windows phone 7 portal by going to http://173.89.0.47/win7phone/index.html
Use to have a psp, sold it for 50 bucks, modded xbox controller, and alot of other ****. And i had the same idea. All you need is a universal server with that on file so we can use it. Its not that hard. But hey, send me that vermin droid, i dont have it [email protected]

this is a pretty cool thing you've got going here. i'm not sure how useful it is right now, but it certainly has some potential.
it doesn't display quite right for me though. the background is tiled and everything is really small. i'd imagine it would be a relatively quick fix.
also i would suggest a back button, as the built in one is inconvenient as hell.
if anybody here knows javascript that might be a better option than html. loading each page is sort of inconvenient (especially on my awful internet).

Yes, it's a portal, but it's still an html file. It doesn't matter if he's hosting it on a local server. Just because you have to enter numbers in to access it, instead of a domain name doesn't make it any difference. It's just like any normal website.
In reality, the web could function without domain names. The thing is that no one wants to remember a string of numbers.

There's version for Chrome. I use chrome. Everything is fast-n-easy.
btw, for the up-and-above topic, i was reading a games site within a public WiFi site and the cache didn't work when exiting the WiFi range and pressing back, even after passing ~10 pages of comments.
i wouldn't rely on that cache. Well i wouldn't rely on ie mobile in general but, ignoring that.....
Wont work on my KIN TWOm
Im curious does this only work over wifi? I always get a timeout error when I try this. By the way Im fairly new here but have an extensive knowledge of programming. I also was able to jailbreak my kin twom.
[Signatures] ☎ Create your own mobile devices timeline (phones history) - super easy
Hi,
A new free web service has been just released - Mowned.com.
You can create your own mobile devices showcase (timeline).
As users creates timelines (eg: add phones and year when they got them), some interesting data will appear (such as: appreciations, devices owned by years, etc - for example check this page).
.. but let's go back to the forum signature. You can create easily signature image that can be used in forums, etc. For an example of a generated signature check mine.
Steps:
Login with Facebook - just click that button, confirm the dialog from Facebook then your account is automatically created
Add your phones - the process is intuitive, you will see once you finish step 1
After you added all your phones click "Activate image signature" from bottom of your dashboard
Copy desired BBcode code generated with the signature image
That's all. You can have your signature in minutes.. in the case you remember all the data .
You may observe that some years in the signature are in gray color instead black. Black means that device is still owned, gray = device gone.
PS: phone years is not mandatory but nice to have (for statistics, as written above)
The service can be acccesed via:
mowned.com - users mobile devices timelines
Available signature formats

^^^ Exactly what he said ^^^ I have no FaceBook account. I have no twitter account. I only have a G+ account because I need a Google account for my Android phone to function fully.
I look forward to the day when FB suddenly goes out of business and all these other companies are screwed - why they can't simply create their own log-in - or even better not require one - I don't understand.
Love the idea but why do you need a login in the first place?
I would remove the need (maybe give the option to) to get more people using it.. what's to stop someone else making a site that does the same but with no login?

Yeap, but in future you get new devices so you need to update current phones list (timeline). If the phone's aren't linked to an user account you cannot edit..

^^^ Exactly what he said ^^^ I have no FaceBook account. I have no twitter account. I only have a G+ account because I need a Google account for my Android phone to function fully.
I look forward to the day when FB suddenly goes out of business and all these other companies are screwed - why they can't simply create their own log-in - or even better not require one - I don't understand.

I guess sites uses Login/Connect via Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Facebook because:
1) users that are using those platforms don't have to complete registrations forms.. just a few clicks and voila, you have access to the site. I personally prefer to login with Twitter and if I like a site and have this option I would sign in using this alternative
2) sites programmers don't have to stress with users creating process, eg: captcha, e-mail validation,etc.. Plus they got extra information, especially from Facebook, such as interests, etc (mowned.com doesn't store such information)

Love the idea but why do you need a login in the first place?
I would remove the need (maybe give the option to) to get more people using it.. what's to stop someone else making a site that does the same but with no login?

Login it's needed because:
- phones are linked to an account
- edit phones list in future (eg: add new device, correct device year from - to, etc)
- user-based phone list helps improve the statistics per phone, for example see this link: http://mowned.com/devices/samsung-galaxy-nexus-i9250
- rate phones (for the sake of statistics again)
So.. what's the purpose you may ask? Well, this way we may see most appreciated phones by owners, phones owned by years, most owned phones.. It's true that you need some amount of data to a have a proper view..
I will implement in the next days a solution for login with e-mail and password (so an valid e-mail and password is needed for registration).
Edit:
Has anyone tried this?
Hello,
Now there's the option to sign up with an e-mail.

Seems to work, but I didn't get the timeline signature picture at the end.
Maybe it's because of my username with the underscore => "IT_ler" ?!
Or do I have to wait after creating my timeline before the jpg will be made and provided?
This should be the link for my timeline signature picture:
[url=http://mowned.com/it_ler][img]http://mowned.com/sig/it_ler.jpg[/img][/url]
EDIT:
Now it's fixed and working fine !
It_ler, yeap it was the underscore, the route didn't know about it (only about "-") so an 404 error was triggered. Now it's fixed.
Thank you for the report!
Cool! just don't like the red ad
Thanks a lot anyway!
XxStatiX thanks, now the logo part is tweaked a bit. Indeed it was too bulky and took too much space. + now it can show up to 11 phones instead 10. Do you think it's ok now?
(if you see no changes you have to refresh the page to force a new fresh request - instead it will show from your browser cache)
Okay i'm checking it out! Is it your website?
Thank you.. and yes

Used your website.. nice.. can you make it stretchable? I mean to different size option for image..
Just a suggestion to improve.. its nice already.. thank you..
Sent from the MUST have app!
nitubhaskar thank you!
Now the image stretches horizontally (its width) automatically. Eg: if you owned only 3 phones no need to make it 500px long..
Thanks for giving me this idea. So your signature image is 324 x 80 instead 500 x 80.
That's what I could do at the moment. The signatures aren't customizable per user (at least ATM).
Yay its Fixed! Exactly what i wanted,Adding phones now! Wait
Thanksssss!

Hi,
Now minimal information about most popular mobile phones (from mowned users input) is shown in main page of the site.
I'm thinking to add in near future an option for those who want only to generate signature images without creating an account. This data will not be merged with user phones database, so it will not help/affect the main statistics.
i got this strange page when i was visiting this thread

Well that's what the error message states so yeah.....
OP, this is quite a common occurrence and happens when people choose to host images on less than reputable hosting sites. I'll look through the thread later and take out the offending image.

Please fix this quickly.
I've gotten the same thing multiple times today.
For me, its on every XDA page that I enter.
But, I keep getting the same malware warning for "security.rltk.us " Doing research on that now.
Update: When I try to go to "security.rltk.us" I get a 403. When I google that malware, all that shows up is results for XDA and another supposedly infected site.

just started getting this same thing earlier today. Wasn't getting it this morning though.
Put adblock from the chrome store on. It clears it up. And you can remove later after XDA cleans up
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
I'm a little surprised there isn't more discussion of this. I'm far from an expert but poking around the many JS files used on XDA I've noticed some suspicious shellcode in one of the Ad providers scripts. I'm fairly sure shellcode is not a common thing to use for an ad platform so maybe the ad provider has had part of their ad framework compromised? It's strange to see unobfuscated shellcode though, which seems rather lazy for typical browser exploits so this may just be strange/legitimate use of shellcode.
Again, by no means is this a definitive thing, just an observation based on what I understand.
EDIT: Looks like since last night Chrome is no longer reporting malware, so possibly the offending ad was removed? And it would appear the ad provider does intentionally use shellcode, as it's still present in their scripts.
I've flagged this for the server guru to take a look at. Not sure if he's around much the next day or two but it will be looked into folks don't worry.

Was curious myself and just did a little more digging on security.rltk.us. Appears Google Safe browsing has the originating site as blacklisted due to being categorized as "Adult & Pornographic content". No other checkers that knew of it had anything negative and not going to dig much further since 1) It's being addressed by mod and 2) Appears issue is cleared. Likely an ad associated with this domain and the message triggered because of the blacklist?
Per Sucuri SiteCheck the site itself has been blacklisted but clean, and provided a clean security report (warnings found):
Blacklisted: Yes
Malware: No
Malicious javascript: No
Malicious iFrames: No
Drive-By Downloads: No
Anomaly detection: No
IE-only attacks: No
Suspicious redirections: No
Spam: No
Plus it lists other sites that checked the domain and cleared it:
* Domain blacklisted by Google Safe Browsing: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean by Norton Safe Web: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean on Phish tank: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean on the Opera browser: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean by SiteAdvisor: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean on Sucuri IP/URL malware blacklist: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean by the Sucuri Malware Labs blacklist: security.rltk.us - reference
* Domain clean on Yandex (via Sophos): security.rltk.us - reference
Typically the "Red page of death" will come up when someone has linked an image to a hostname that is on the malware blacklist from Google, as conantroutman stated.
If there is an ad causing this (ie, if you see it on more than one thread) then it is possible there is a "Bad ad" being served. These are so customized that likely however much browsing I do I'll never come across it, so if anyone does have this issue and has the ability to determine which script exactly is causing the error, would love to hear it so we can yell at our ad provider.
That includes any shellcode that is being performed by an ad, would be very curious what they are doing.
We are blacklisting security.rltk.us from posting ads, the tough part is sometimes the ad is actually served from somewhere else that forwards to that domain name.
I think it's Google job they hate xda for mods/hacks like 4.2 camera is now blocking(ask to delete download links)

It's not Google. It's members who insist on using shady sites to host their photos and stuff. Those sites are blacklisted by Google and that's why the warning comes up.
I'm getting a warning for valid.canardpc.com when I try to go to this XDA page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483043&page=33
I have developed an app for the note 10 cut out wallpapers. The wallpapers in the wallpix app are created by me and my friend. All the wallpapers that are available are unique.
We allow users to set all the wallpapers for free.
Now we have also included the live wallpapers. But the live wallpapers are for pro users.
Here is the demo of live wallpaper : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsW7TCqioTU
To download the app. Go to play store and search for Wallpix or download it from this link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wallpaper.wallpix
Note 10 users should turn off the motion for the cutout wallpapers to work.
Here are the steps to turn off the motion on one UI
When you press and hold the screen and select wallpaper from the gallery not from the app, there is a choice to activate motion is already active click on it to disable and then go to WallPix app and select the wallpaper you want, hope I was clear.

I believe it's called advertisement. That's like saying you won't eat at a specific restaurant, just because you saw their commercial on every channel on the TV.
Screw you, Hardee's! (Or Carl's, Jr depending on your location) You've spammed every TV show and channel with your hamburgers. I'm suspicious and never eating there again!

Umm i guess you do not understand how an app and how a "fast food" commercial works. Fast food restaurants dont put location trackers, advert pop ups, trojans, viruses, data receivers, key stroke recorders in your food dummy! People create apps for what you need the most, which right now might be cutout wallpapers, as a front for their apps and then spam you with adds in you notifications or worse mine your data. The way this guy starts by saying "i found an app" which he actually created then spams them on all possible websites and actually creates new accounts to do it (if you check his profile) sets off all alarms in my opinion. You are welcome to install and use it. I was only giving a heads up. Didnt know i will have to explain how malicious apps work.
Here u go.....enjoy!

You need to step back and calm down. There's no need for name calling.
The only permission his app asks for is storage.
Again, I see no issue with him posting about his app on all websites. Again, that's advertisement. Just because someone advertises his own app does not make it malicious.
Prove to me that his app is malicious and I'll concede your point. Until then, you're just slinging mud and name calling for no reason. You're just destroying YOUR credibility, not the app developer's.
@mickey878
Checkout this tweet too https://twitter.com/MKBHD/status/1168531550369136641
I didn't name call and again it's the user's choice to install or not to. If you are happy to provide permission to storage, it's your decision and you are entitled to do as you like. Freedom of speech, but I guess no one really cares about it any more. All I did was give people a heads up to be careful. There are a ton of apps providing the same stuff doesn't mean they are all in good faith. Chill....
