List of Apps - Needed/Missing

I thought I'll compile a list of IMP apps that are missing. If someone knows a decent alternative to these please suggest.
1. Amazon
2. Kindle - I know this is coming
3. Skype
4. Good IM app - Like Fringe or Palringo
5. Comics reader - comixology (DC or Marvel)
6. Ustream or QIK
7. Dropbox or an app for SkyDrive

I found a app called Ustream Viewer in market place. May be it's what you search ?

1. Palringo
2. Qik
3. Siriusxm radio app
4.Opera Browser (hoping they allow alternative browsers with a future update)
5. Google Maps
6. Loud Talks (a nextel chirp app from winmo)
7 Private Chat ...an app from android that locks ur fone and gives u 2 passcodes it gives u a dummy code that will open another app and a real code to get u to ur text messages

Opera Mini - absolutely
BTW, InternetExplorer doesn't support my banks online banking

BeejiveIM > Fring and Palringo. Beejive is more apt to use Push Notifications, removing the need to multitask the App, ever... It's expensive, though. I downloaded the Android trial and 2 days later Facebook added chat. Byebye Beejive
There's also WhatsApp.
The first smartphone OS to offer a worthy alternative to Blackberry Messenger will win big, I think
Microsoft said they won't disallow apps that duplicate functionality, but I don't know if they'll allow you to change the default browser.

That would be very bad. Opera Mini is even available on iPhone.
It's the best solution to browse when travelling.

after how many years though?
the reason you won't see opera/firefox/chrome on wp any time soon is due to the restrictions still on the languages. wp uses VB/C#, which does not allow for C++ which a lot of these more complex programs are written in. Though OEMs have capabilities to write native code.

I am pretty satisfied for the most part with the apps on my HD7 but I do want Skydrive integration and limited multitasking for apps like LastFM.
Bing also should be updated to match the superior iPhone app.

Many things have to be improved.
IE is great but lacks support for many features.

I got an app for amazon in "testing" in the marketplace. I can give out the xap if you like it, It's gonna be free anyway.
It has limited functionality at this time, but I'm improving it as I found new things to add.
Here are a couple of screenshots

1. Official Google Voice App - I know it might be a problem to intercept outgoing calls and/or using GV when you tap "Send Text" from the People Hub, but an official app from Google would probably be more fluid than what's available now. GVoice is a good solution for now, but it could use some small improvements. Who better to do that than Google?
2. I know emulators are not allowed, but I'd like to see a homebrew PSX and SNES Emulator. I'd definately pay the developer for it, Paypal maybe since Marketplace won't allow it... that's how it's done for WinMo.
3. BeyondPod

Not available in all markets
The Skype Beta seems to be limited to certain markets. I cannot download it in Germany. Hopefully Microsoft is extending the Beta to more countries soon.
EDIT: The Zune Link is not working, but the web marketplace link (from Skype Blog) is working in Germany.

Strike_Eagle, thanx for the nice information.
Now I have one reason less to hate WP
ultrashot implemented RAPI (WMDC runs and gives full access to file system and registry from PC), you pointed on Skype...
Now - I miss only VPN .... and probably REPL....

and Hey!
heads up!
SDK 7.1.1 is live!

I put a note upthere, confirmed it work with IE only, haven't tried on Firefox and Opera.

Anyone who can't download properly, please look at post 1 for updated link for web version, please let me know if you still can't download.

This.. is great!
Finally Windows Phone has the Skype app..
Just wish I could use it properly with my HD7 (with a front camera)..
Oh well. good enough xD

It not support multitasking...
You are disconnected from Skype when you press home or back.
XAP for sideloaders.

Also I have a greek friend in my list and his name does not pop up in the contacts, but it does pop up when I click the plus to start a conversation...
But its a beta of course. Ow weird, I'm restarting the app now and the greek name shows up now, very strange haha. Never mind then.
I hope they can somehow use the ringtone when there would be an incoming skype call. This is what prevents tango from working correctly atm.
Unfortunately the design is not as nice as the mockups joe belfiore showed a year ago (!). But its better than nothing and I'm certainly happy with it, have been wanting this for long time

I can't download it, I get an error message saying I need a "newer version of Windows Phone". There is no update available for my device, HTC Mozart on Orange UK. Any ideas?

I put it onto my LG Optimus Quantum using Application Deployment and seems to be working great.

You can only download it directly on the phone. Zune on the Desktop only work for US users (because zune:// links don't support a locale parameter). It's not searchable in the marketplace either.
I recommend using the QR code in the official blog post.

Why not just get it from the marketplace? What's the point of side-loading it?

I can't download in the UK.

Boycotting Google.....

Ok, first off, no silly replies please. You can laugh but don't talk like a dumbass.
So here goes.... *deep breath*.......
Is there an alternative to Android (Google) that i can run on my HTC one x. I'm boycotting Google for the way they have handled the offensive video as of late on youtube.
To be frank, google dominates my life, contacts, gmail, photo's, chrome but i now want to boycott them. I know it'll be hard but i can try....
So, alternative OS to google which my one x can run?? Or do i need to buy an iphone
Mods, feel free to move this as appropriate.

What are you talking about......
And no is the answer

lol
somehow i'm not sure they will notice
anyways its your life, your choice..
windows phone, iphone, and blackberry, samsung bada, i think there's more, but none really are quite the same as android, imo you will be taking a big step backwards if you do choose to not use it.
only problem, is that your not really gonna be successful in finding one of those os's for the one x. somebody would have to make it, the same way as a custom rom, and the processor architecture could be different, and not supported by os etc etc, its a big mess and very very unlikely to ever happen - the old windows mobile phones got android, purely because winmo was complete crap, and android would have been considered an upgrade, the other os's; they would be considered by most as a downgrade, hence not bothering to do it

I'm guessing the OP is on about this video which Muslims are finding offensive
But to answer your question, no. You can't run anything other than Android on the One X at this time

CyanogenMod uses all the open source code from Android and makes the Google apps installation optional. If you boycott Google and don't want to know from them, you can use it if it's available on your 1X. The browser allows you to choose your search provided, right?

my apologies.. just could not resist

There is no non-Android OS for the HOX. You could however remove most if not all Google services from your phone. Root, and then install an AOKP or CM ROM, don't install the GApps. It might be useful to use Droidwall to block connections to specific Google servers as well. There will still be some things to do like making sure location services stay off, and you'll face some challenges, but you could cut the cord.
You'd need to sideload apps (no Play Store). Use something like Funambol for calendar/contacts/mail. Use Opera or Firefox browser and set default search engines to not be Google.
I can't decide if this would end up really sucky or really just the same!

Just go buy another phone. U cant please everybody in the world so boycotting google just because of this video is childish. They have offensive material to me posted on YouTube like videos glorifying the IRA but I won't boycott them because of it. So I suggest u either buy a new phone or quit ur b##chin

Good luck with that, what your after is an iphone - but guess what, all videos will still be on YouTube (aka gootube )

[XDA TV] Show your Free App!

If you're a WP Developer and you have your FREE App posted, submitted to the App Store (or soon), show me the thread!
Why? I will be reviewing and maybe talk/show XDA Developers Apps ONLY and if your App is useful, innovative, fun, or any adjective I haven't provided, I would like to share it on an upcoming episode of XDA TV for WP as I won't be providing programming help every week, so we figured why not show off some of your guys/girls work. No guarantees and nagging/PMs will be ignored.
Looking forward to your Apps!

The key point: It's developed entirely using TouchDevelop, Microsoft's Research on device programming environment. Means it is developed solely right on Windows Phone itself.
On device programming could actually turn out to be a big thing.
Hope to see it on XDA TV.

Hi Lance,
you may review my free apps (see my signature) VoiceTranslator and SilverDict. Both apps was announced here on xda, already published on the MP (and VoiceTranslator recently hits 200K downloads) and have xda support threads (what's why I don't want to repost pictures).

Available in the next languages: English (as primary), Russian, Spanish and Korean
In next updates will add: Italian and Portuguese languages, some fixes and sounds that users asked.
Sometimes could crash server (I host sounds in my own server, but buying more bandwidth as my apps is being more downloaded).

the results may be fast, but you don't everything takes longer than usual [compared to IE] to load, so it seems slower. again, it is a beta, could be fixed in the final release.

Here's the xap. Of course it still doesn't work with any device other than lumias unless you change your registry.

this has been already discussed for Navigon.
It was allowed before it hitted the marketplace.

I've been using Xpress beta since a day. It's quite impressive! Yes, server-side rendering makes it slower than IE but it should be fixed soon. The interface is really neat, feature-rich, quite better than IE's barebone interface.. I love the magazines section, neatly divides a site into articles. My live tile shows 87% data compression which is not far from claimed up to 90% compression. Impressive!
So, how much I liked it? This much that I already stopped using IE and am now using Xpress beta as my regular browser on phone.

No, it doesn't, you're wrong.. Take a look to the attachments (sorry, can't make better screenshots from my locked Lumia 900).
WP_001430.jpg - it's how the web site (very simple css and java script) looks on Pocket IE and (very same as) on many other Windows, Linux, OSX, iOS, Android etc. browsers... (I've tested at least 8 different browsers).
WP_001429.jpg - it how it looks on Xpress. Can say, completely nonfunctional and nonworking.
