first day with W7 - Windows Phone 7 General

I have a HTC surround. And my phone is up to date. But when I try to download HTC market apps it tells me to plug my phone in and update it. Any ideas?

which marketplace? HTC?

HTC recently released a system update for all HTC phones. This fixed some issues with their apps. Connect your surround to Zune go to settings, then click update. Zune should check if a software update is available for your surround. If it does, then update.

1]Unplug your phone
2]turn your wifi/3g on
3] go to marketplace
4]update all HTC apps that need to be updated [at the bottom]
5]thats all

Or maybe you should plug it, open zune and check for updates.

Hidden WIFI ?? HTC HD7

Hi guys i just got a HD7 connects to my wifi at home with no issues, has a WEP security code, but it dosent connect at my office which is WPA2 i think, is there a way to solve this or am i stuck for now?
It dosent even show up on the available networks at all by the way not just cant connect.
Thanks
WP7 currently can't connect to wireless networks with a hidden SSID from what I've read. WPA2 should be no problem. You should really upgrade from WEP at home, its easily cracked.
Yea i know lol... im in a very remote location so not to worried.
HTC just releases an app called Hidden Wi-Fi. Just google it and you'll see the link. Only problem is i can't see it in my hd7 marketplace. Anyone help?

Goto the marketplace, select apps, then do a search for hidden Wifi.

The problem with the app I am having is that it tells me:
This application requires the latest Wi-Fi software. Please update your phone to the latest system software.
I am currently on No-do, so I don't know what else to do.
Lol. Guess you have to wait for the Mango update.lol

have you recieved the HTC update after NoDo? I think the app needs that update.

Yup that's what i think too...need an OEM date so they probably released the app a bit too soon

I haven't seen an update after the NoDo update. I just got a connection setup update.

[Q] Slacker Radio Missing in Marketplace????????

I've had issues playing Slacker radio the last few days, so I uninstalled the app so that I could re-install and see if it would fix the problem. But now I cant find it in the Marketplace, anyone else having this issue? I am running Mango 7720 on my HTC HD7 from tmobile.
Thanks
It's gone for me too. TMOUS HD7 Mango Beta 7712.
I assume you're talking about the T-Mobile version of Slacker, because the regular version is still there. I read somewhere that the T-Mobile version had been updated for Mango, so maybe you can't see it if you're still on NoDo.
Yeah I received the update for Slacker that enabled playing in the background, then a few weeks later Slacker wasnt loading anymore, it would stay stuck loading. So I uninstalled the app in the hopes that if I reinstall it would fix the loading issue. Um when I did that I went to the marketplace to reinstall but no longer listed, WTH?
Now Im stuck without Slacker and still no Pandora radio (if thats ever gonna happen).
Just realized this tonight. I'm sort of pissed, TBH. It does show up in a Zune Client search, but I cannot search from the phone. Don't want to install from the Zune Client since I've heard of issues where it installs uninstalled apps whenever you hook your phone up to your computer...

It'll only reinstall uninstalled apps if you hard reset.

Apologies,
I have checked the US marketplace and the Xap available is the one i have linked, there doesnt appear to be one for TMOUS......possibly taken down for upgrade. I will check a few other places and if i find it i will post it for you.

Can someone post the XAP? Interested if it runs better than the last mango version. It was really buggy.

7740 and IS HTC Update pushed to 7 Pro

I woke up this morning to an alert on my HTC 7 Pro that I had a software update available - "hooray", I thought, expecting just to get 7740.
To my surprise I was also pushed the HTC Update with Internet Sharing enabled, so my 7 Pro is now fully 'mangoed'. Don't know if any of you guys have had this too?
Annoyingly, though, HTC didn't think to fix the MAC address issue (changes every time you reboot), so my phone can /be/ a wireless hotspot, but can't /connect/ to my wifi network. Damn
I got this update today too for my 7 pro. I thought it was weird since I'm on DFT v2 I didn't think we got updates.

i guess it depends on your carrier and where you are located
maybe origin of phone plays a part too
i'm in singapore, where the 7 pro is not available, but i still got it
if it matters, my 7 pro is a unbranded set from the uk
Only IS for HD7 7720 not getting 7740 yet.
And nothing for me on the trophy yet -.-

Well so far I only know of Mozart, HD7 and 7 Pro geting updates so I'm sure you will get it eventually if your carrier supports it, it's just a matter of time.
Incidentally, I've very please that the update isn't carrier dependent, as this means for sure that they can't detect you using it if you're on an unbranded device
I got the 7740.16 update yesterday but if it is supposed to enable IS,, I'll be damned if I can find it...
Did it just show up in the program list for the rest of you? Is there something that needs to be changed?
Thanks,,

It's in settings
it is not, this is OS update, not firmware update.

Internet Sharing is located in Settings, between Bluetooth and Email+Accounts
At least it is on my HTC 7 Pro, updated to 7740 (which if you look carefully includes the HTC update at the bottom) yesterday.
If you install a later update, all earlier updates are installed also. It looks to me like the HTC Update was activated slightly before 7740, so is getting packaged in at the same time.

Hi andrew
can you run WP7 Update Cab Sender to read the update log and share url of the HTC Update.
Can we force update like 7720? and how it's done.
I updated my unbranded hd7 to 7740 but still didn't have the IS. sucks!
shooter3406 said:
If you tell me where i can find the update url in the log, i can give you that.
But if you want i backuped the downloades Zune Cab (about 40 MB), so i can upload it to RS.

My hd7 7720 contain IS.Haven't receive any update for 7740 yet.

HTC section gone from Marketplace?

Just opened market on my phone and there is no HTC app section anymore (I have HTC Trophy phone). Also I can't find any of the official HTC apps by searching for "HTC" anymore.
Anyone else getting this?

My HTC section for apps is still there, do you have played with the settings and switching to other OEM marketplaces? maybe this is the bug. try to switch again to one, and then back again to normal. restart your phone and look again. i hope you fix it.
No, I have stock Rom (on Tango), no unlocks/other markets etc. Restart of phone didn't change anything.

HTC Apps market works as usually w/o issues. Check your data transfer status.

Android pay thinks I'm rooted.

Can't use Android pay anymore.

Same here and Google play store shows device uncertified.
Same here. I downloaded Safetynet check and it says CTS Profile mismatch. Can't use Android pay to charge my car. It was after the update earlier today that's supposed to fix the red tint issue some people were having. I should have held off if I knew it would break android pay.

I have never updated my phone. I diabaled the update process so I could keep Bixby remapping and possible future root exploits. But no everything is fine minus the constant having to re-add my cards.

Everyone!!!! It's not an issue with the software from samsung... If you download the latest Google play services 11.0.33 the device will pass safetynet check, store will show certified and Android pay will work as expected!!! I did this and it worked for me on my S8+.
Just an update on the situation, I have reached out to T-Mobile via Twitter Support and they have informed me that they are aware of the issue and will fix in the next update. (Hoping soon)
Hey there! Thanks so much for reaching out about this and bringing it to our attention. We have noted this issue down and we are making adjustments for when our next update comes out from Samsung! I sincerely appreciate the feedback and it will be sent in the right direction to the right people! I have a link here: https://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones-tablets-devices/software-updates … that take you to our software updates page where you can see and watch our updates as they come to our network! Let me know what questions you have about this!

I have also had success by updating Google Play Services as described above. Easy.
