Twice now, forum tiles that I have pinned to start from the new board express pro app have simple disappeared from my start screen. I am unable to repin them as board express says they are already pinned. A reinstall of board express is the only fix, anyone else seen this or have any ideas?

That's a Mango bug, unfortunately, Jeff Wilcox outlined this on his blog I believe
I read the blog - bit of a b*gger really

Anyone interested in helping out?
*EDIT*
This application is complete, and has been branded G:RSS. The new thread can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700948
The release: http://nowsci.com/techviews/20100612/grss-a-google-reader-rss-app-for-windows-phone-7-wp7/
Unfortunatly I´m unable to help, but please continue with your work, it looks very very nice!
Sounds interesting. How far have you got, and whats still to do?
From the looks of the screenshot, it seems you've allready got most stuff working. Just need some design tweaks
I've got the structure laid out and am working through the Google API now. My biggest issue is I'm new to Silverlight/C#, and while it is 99% straightfoward, I'm having a problem figuring out how to get the HTTP Request working properly. I've got a thread started on the Windows Phone 7 forum here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Fo.../thread/8e918a12-135a-45b3-9764-0a24f631f4b3/
And yea, the UI is my first pass, it's what I'm working towards until I get it functioning fully in the emulator, then I'll revise.
Nice, but I think what is really needed is a view like you get on reader.google.com, where you can click through your news items in its full form.

I'll be building in swipe gestures, right for next article, left for previous. I think this is the best way to display an article and navigate. I was debating on placing the headline for the next article below, so you could tap on it, but longer articles would force scrolling. If anyone has any suggestions for how navigation could work otherwise, I haven't built that piece of the puzzle yet, so I'm open.

Nice screens. If you are stuck and need help I am a WP7Dev and have some time to do XAML and other stuff. PM me if you are still looking for help.
I also built a GReader WP7 app, screens are not as well designed as yours! Good job.
I'm actually finishing it up now. It's fully functional with almost all of the features of the desktop reader including on-phone caching. It's also looking much better than my concepts including theme options. I'll post a video when its complete, to see if there are any other things people want.
Great! Can´t wait for the video!
Why a Google RSS reader?
Syncing with Google Reader, so you see the same read / unread items on your mobile and on your Desktop. I like it.

Hope you get some help from here. Gunnar is a friend of mine.
So I actually just completed it on my own. Was a great way to get into WP7 development. I've since named the application, and have a video of it posted. The new thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700948
I don't see the HTC Imagio (Whitestone) forums listed any more on the main forums page. Have they been removed on purpose or is it just a glitch? Hope they are restored soon. Thanks!
I can still access it directly here though so it doesn't look like the pages have been removed.

The HTC Whitestone is now classed as a legacy device, so it is accessed via either the direct link, or the button on the homepage for "Show legacy devices".
Thanks for letting me know where to find the forums!
Wow, legacy device, not yet even a year old. Shows you how fast things move in the smartphone world.
But I understand, I own one - but ready to move on to something else.
Looks like Pulse is coming to WP7. It was my favorite RSS reader on the iPhone. I know there are some similar to it already, namely Fuze, but I just thought I'd share.

Is it possible we can get one big thread similar to the Mango app update thread for these product announcements?

Changed Thread Title
@N8ter, Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it.
Hey I'm not meaning to be a b*tch You can just change the thread to something like "Apps Coming to WP7 - Latest: <AppName>" that that would be great, similar to the Mango app update thread. Don't need to be closed, just repurposed
That would cut down on a lot of redundant threads.

Can’t download an app? Here’s why

Uninstall then reinstall, update wouldn't work for me either

I found a topic on microsoft.answers where mods where asking people for some information, I replied to the thread and like a day after I could update and download apps again. Excellent!
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
