The "I Have Got the Official Mango Update Thread" - Windows Phone 7 General

OK Since mango now appears to be upon us, thought I would start a thread to track it's progress around the world. When you get the official update, post which country, which device, which operator (or not branded if that is the case) and which hive (if you have that info.)

Guys, please note that the idiots at microsoft have created a *new* page for the mango update status, and they have left the old one (which doesn`t include mango) up.
This means if any of you have bookmarked the old "Wheres my update" page, or If you navigate to "Wheres my update" from the Microsoft front page, you will still get the old page. Unhelpful.
Here is the new link you need to track mango.

Travis asks the CSR Tanya if the update will be coming out today.
She responds that it will and all he will need to do is connect his phone to Zune.
Travis asks what happens if he does not get an update.
She reassures Travis that he will.
Travis then starts hitting on Tanya, saying her font is sexy and he would like to see her Mangoes.

ChevronWP7 Unlocker Possible Patch by Microsoft on next Update

Tried installing, but it didn't recognize my HD2.
So following the advise to put a reg entry on my pc, Chevron opened, I checked the required boxes and tried to run, but again it wouldn't see the phone.
I finally found the makers Twitter page, saying that MS will be patching the unlocker on their first update.(proberbly the reason the site is now down).
Anyway after checking Zune on my PC, Microsoft has already installed three patches to the phone during my first Sync.
Here is the Twitter page...http://twitter.com/search?q=%23ChevronWP7
I hope there's a way round this, and I hope I'm wrong, sorry for the bad news...
EDIT: Found out that I need Development tools installed, which isn't stated in the two Threads I was reading, after more searching, I have hope again. If it works I will update this post.
Dam I need Vista SP2 or win7, xp no good.. now I've got to set up a desktop...
Edit: Finally got it working today and UK is screwed...just got off the phone wit MS (UK based folk can call: 0844 800 2400 choose option 2 and then option 7) They've stopped giving them out and to contact my operator. T-mobile UK will proberbly tell me to sod off... so I guess I'll have to wait for a Key-Gen to come out.
Hmm Then i must be just in time because i got mine unlocked a few hours ago..
Hopefully this product works like an Iphone does ( not installing any updates or w/e without notifying you ).. If it happens automatically I'm screwed because Windows Phone 7 seems to have a mind of its own doing its own updating and everything..
I had to install WP7 SDK. Without that, it would not work at all! Just worked for me.

Well the title is correct, Microsoft is patching the ChevronWP7 exploit.
The inclination that the patch has already been pushed is the incorrect part.

Orange UK Marketplace free apps

Hey guys,
for those of you on Orange UK
check out the marketplace.
there is now an "Orange Selects" section and you can download free versions of apps such as Cocktail Flow, Touchnote, Pathfinder etc.
Sorry if this is old news.. I only noticed it last night!
Yeah saw this recently too! I like it!
Where is it?
I'm not seeing it, but I fear this is either because I'm not using an Orange SIM in mine or more likely because I uninstalled the Orange app out of the programs! Can someone be very specific about where it appears, then I can be sure? Is it supposed to be in that first list where you get HTC Apps, applications, games & music?
Humm i cant get into the orange selects section since going to mango i get an error 805a0194

It happens to everyone on mango beta.
To get around it (to get your free apps) just go to the marketplace search and type "Orange UK" and it will give you the same list as the "Orange Selects" section.
Hope this helps.

Hi all
Are all the Apps free when you follow this procedure? Only some are free when I do this.
E.G. Cocktail Flow is £2.49.

From what I know we're getting 1 free app per day for every day in July. So each day you go in to the orange selects section one of the apps in there will be free (the price changes to £0.00 for 1 day then changes back to whatever it was originally)
Hope that helps.

When it first appeared all the apps were free.
So far from July I have got Stars 3d and Travel London.
Both useful.
I got cocktailflow free from the MIX promotion.
So far they have been very good.

I have the free version of that, it's really good.
I'm not missing another one.
The only problem I see is that once we downgrade back to NoDo, all the apps that we installed on Mango will be deleted (AFAIK) so we'd have to pay for these apps once the Mango Beta ends. Can anyone confirm/deny this?
8th July: Bye Bye Brain
A bit bummed cos I only just found out about this promo
That sleepmaster app just seems like an accident waiting to happen.
Plug it into mains and then sleep with it in your bed? A lot of reviews citing the phone getting red-hot which seems inevitable. Not something that i'll be doing.

Hi all
I understand that the Windows Phone marketplace policy is that once you have purchased an item, you can re-download it anytime later if it has been deleted from your phone. This should include future updates to applications/games. The purchase is linked to your Windows Live ID rather than the phone.
The only problem is if the item is removed from the Marketplace after your purchase.

Maybe that's the answer, I couldn't seem to find some HTC apps such as Connection Media (or whatever it's called) and Attentive Phone. I checked on WMPowerUser and I got redirected from links to the app in Marketplace and I could download it. Got it in my HTC HD7 (originally T9295, TMOUS but changed to T9292 when switching to DFT ROMs) working, but I don't know how to use it xD

On the US trophy, it does not work on 7720.68 upgraded from Zune, so it must be the firmware that is updated with the Leaked Shipped roms....
Edit: Confirmed this, I can quote someone saying that it worked on their Vzw HTC Trophy with the "leaked Roms". I upgraded my phone via Zune to 7720.68 and installed the app, it will run but, it will say "your phone is not compatable with this application" and just have a "OK" to exit.
No, it will not run under NoDO or any other version of WP7
I keep getting "unable to connect the media server"
Any suggestions??
I was on the Mango RTM and after the HTC firmware update yesterday this app worked fine. I rolled back to NoDo and upgraded to Mango the 'official' Zune way and now I can't redownload this.
"This application is not available for your device".
Any ideas? My handset is an HTC 7 Pro.
HD7: I was on leaked Mango RTM and yesterday I got the official HTC Update. Now Connected Media works without warning (sideloaded).
But I can't get Attentive Phone and Sound Enhancer from the marketplace anymore. Only with sideloading.
EDIT: With help of the Mini-Marketplace inside HTC Hub I found Attentive Phone and installed it. But not Sound Enhancer. It is there, but i can't install it because my phone software is not up to date!??
I have HTC trophy in Netherlands, I have pushed the Mango update today (was on NoDo) using the trick on the web, now The app does not want to install stating my device is not supported. and when I sideload it refuses to install. I have removed that interop line and now isntalled the app it starts but there is an overlay telling me the device is not supported... GRRRR

Btw, if you search for it you will not find. But if you open the link it will.

Download it trough 3mktplace, that will work, just copy the zune link from the article.
It is not as good as I hoped. Very laggy and a sloppy design, far from professional. Hopefully this will change soon, maybe they pulled it for some reason and thats why it does not show up on the phone.

App published but not in MP

Got my 2 apps published and can see the same under my AppList, it says certified and it is under the Publised tab, but it is still not showing up in the MP.
Any idea?
Publishing can take 24-48 hours.
It does take time. 24-48 hours is pretty accurate. I have been able to see my published apps in the website http://windowsphone.com/marketplace but could not find it by searching the marketplace. It'll get there, the system just takes a while to sync up. Patience!

This is very true. Your app will then show a status of "Submission Started" or something to that effect. I don't think it actually hurts a published app but I had this and it generally confused me. You can always go back in and click "Cancel Submission" to leave your app as is though.

I wasn't able to cancel the submission. I made them cancel the certification and turns out I still had to make a metadata update in order to escape it lol. Oh well, I'll know next time.
Marketplace publishing process (comparing with year ago) now become very slow and annoying. And MS still want to expand developers community! I'm afraid if developers should wait two or more weeks to be published (actually, I'm talking more about quick bugfixes etc., not the initial submission), developer's interest to WP7 platform will reduced.

Definitely. To reply to sensbostons post. What you say is correct. My app got published and a bug occurred immediately that I needed to post an update to. Needless to say I was JUST able to upload my updated xap yesterday and the bug happened two weeks ago. The support is horrible as I was instructed to do things that ultimately led to pushbacks. Do they want their developers to have faith in this Marketplace? I've been wondering that. That dashboard... The buggiest thing of all. Sometimes I refresh and it tells me it doesn't have my tax information at all.

Yes to echo what others have said, on top of normal app maintenance having to fight with the App Hub's slowness and constant errors doesn't get me excited for app writing.
