And there's more to come (when finished)
Nav2recent should work perfectly, just READ the howto and download it here : http://ppc.jhps.shacknet.nu/ Zip-pass is "xdatest"...
Navigate2 is downloadable too, but i only give out the password by mail or PM, since i want to know who is testing it
please give comments or bugreports !
(tested on WM2003 !)

Would you mind if i post a link to this topic to the guys at pocketgpsworld. They've developed a few tomtom addons and would probably be interested in this.

Be my guest, but like i said, i'm not giving the password for Navigate2 away to anyone...
I'd rather have some of the guys here test it first...
My final goal is NOT to make money out of it, but a FREE "navigate to appoinment location" tool available to anyone....
Why ? Because it STUPID that navigationsoftwar has a tool to navigat you to addresses you probably allready know (Your contactlist !), but NOT to addresses you drive to for the first time : APPOINMENT LOCATIONS...
If their willing to help : Great ! If they want to create a tool alike and 'hide' it on their site, or ask money for it: No way...

Just posted the link and hopefully it won't be abused.
The guys at pocketgpsworld have already developed and released (free) a tt5 addon called "POI Capture" which allows for quick saving of speed cameras of various types.
Good luck and i hope everything goes well.

XDA2i - 512 SD card - unlocked - TomTom5.21 - Rikaline wired receiver - plus other software that I find useful, if only for a couple of minutes - attention span of a goldfish.

Darn, the whole 3 sec. ? How do you do that

Ok, working on a better version allready...
Any comments upto now ?

I have got a short attention span - was i here the other day ?
Have you had any interest from pocketgps fellas?
Thanks for your efforts by the way.

Didn't see them in the referrrers, or did they pick it up from here ?
I'm pretty fast expanding / Enhancing though :

A few suggestion for Windows Phone 7 navigation

Since Microsoft first released Windows Phone 7, I convinced my self to "NOT BUY" the very first release because I know and I think most of us knows that a few months or weeks, an improved version will be available.. Well probably upgrading a ROM is the answer but anyway, my few suggestions to improve some navigations.
A like to suggest in horizontal panning effect which I think is a very nice and beautiful. But to improve the navigation, here are some my suggestion.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Ok. So another one would be, in Application List navigation.
also posted in my blog site
http://jaysonragasa.net/post/A-few-suggestion-for-Windows-Phone-7.aspx

To be honest, those are nice concepts. I can easily see the Application list getting changed to allow grid support. Can't say much about the other.

FYI Windows Phone 7 is going to be very easy to update. It has a real updater unlike Windows Mobile. You wont have to flash a rom and wipe out all your apps and settings to get OS updates anymore. At least thats what Microsoft is claiming.

the question is, will it be "free" ? which I don't believe it will.
and if not .. well most of us I think will still swim around this kind of site for free upgrade, patched ROMs that we will still injecting in our phone's vains
EDIT:
-- ok, so hopefully it will be free like Windows OS

another suggestion would be
Bing search results.
Will it be nice to search inside your phone too such as Contacts, Applications, Calendar, and files? here's the preview.

Since when was Google Wallet not supported on rooted devices?

Welcome to the forums! Have a look around, try out the search button.

As WiredPirate mentioned, this has been discussed a few times.
The good news is that it's more of a "not officially condoned" as opposed to a "not going to work" type of support. Continue to use Wallet to your heart's content, just understand that there are certain risks on a rooted device - and Google won't be responsible if you run into problems.

Yea I can confirm that it still works. I only saw that message once... then never again. It just means that if you run a Rooted rom, you won't get support if something goes wrong or your money becomes missing.

This is not true. I spoke with Google CS about this and the man I spoke with assured me that the message meant if the app doesnt function in the way it should, ie. not transfering data via NFC or pressing a button doesnt work, that Google is not responsible to help you troubleshoot it. Not that you cannot cancel your card or retrieve your funds if you loose your phone. The phrase he used repetitively was "Your money is still your money", if for some reason your cash 'disappears' just call and they will straighten it out. But if the app is not transmitting or if it is spazzing out, do not expect them to help you troubleshoot it and get it working properly again, which I imagine they would initially try to do anyways or atleast give you suggestions on things to try but would eventually say "we are not responsible" if you are taking up too much of their time.
I hadn't planned on replying to this question since it has been covered several times but I had to clear up the misinformation.

Today was just the first time I ever noticed this warning in the app like that. I've been rooted forever, but I thought it might have been due to a recent update (and no topics showed up in the little "topic title search" thing).

Been like this for weeks. Its effectively a "user beware" notice.

Metrotube is down, but not out.

We all know that the author confirmed that Metrotube is out of Marketplace for a long time ago. But surprise today, when i was reinstalling apps for my Eternity through "Reinstaller" , i saw MetroTube in the list. I chose it, and the phone was able to pull out the Marketplace Site for MetroTube, i reinstalled it through Marketplace just fine! ( I bought it before)
I tried to search for it on Marketplace , but it came up with nothing. So look like MetroTube is not completely pulled off Marketplace Database, but in "hidden" mode.
So for whoever have purchased MetroTube and you want to have it once more time on the app list, you can go and download the "Reinstaller" app from Marketplace (Free) and then choose MetroTube on the list. Or you can try this link:
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/apps/8d93224f-2808-e011-9264-00237de2db9e
So, people might not know, but MetroTube was an excellent YouTube app. Just a trick for people who bought this app. (New Users can try to purchase it, i don't guarantee anything)

You can also email Lazyworm at [email protected]
They've been maintaining the app in the Marketplace (hidden from search and such) for a while now; anyone who purchased it can receive a Marketplace link if you provide your Live ID.

i should be mentioned that the MetroTube you download now is flagged as beta and will expire after 30 days of time. They're trying to find aways to avoid this, but up to now that's the way it is. If you happen to run into such expiration issues, just mail the guys again with your live ID and you'll get a new - working - link.

[Q] What is the proper syntax for setting a calendar event in Google Now?

I know its capable since the update before last but getting it to actually work is a pain.
It will set a calendar event but it doesnt seem to get any of my date and time information. What it will do is set a calendar even for the next half hour block and then put the time/date and subject in the description.
So "Create an event for Thursday at 6 PM for a Haircut" I will end up with an event in fifteen minutes titled "thursday at 6pm for a haircut."
This seems to be the only feature in Voice Actions/Google Now that I cant seem to get to work. Everything else understands what I want wonderfully.
I did some searches but all I get back are old threads about how it wasnt supported prior to the update and/or doing it through the text trick.

First say set event for Thursday, wait for day to open and
Then say the event or type it out.
This should come up

This works for me ->
"schedule a haircut for Thursday at 6pm"

Thank you! That actually worked.
Edit: Tried it a few times, works reliably.

No problem! Would appreciate it if you can press the "thanks" button for me.

Ah, was on "XDA Classic" theme and it doesn't show the thanks button. Updated and thanked.
