@neitin got your PM
Also, here's an update on the app:
I will not have a chance to work on this again for a few more days. As it stands now, a user can search forums, select a forum, view individual forums (like subforums) within a forum, and view topics within each forum. Forums stats are also viewable, and the app saves a history on which forums you have gone to.
While it may not seem like a lot, these functions, combined with designing the UI, also combined with figuring out how the Tapatalk service works and building a base to connect to various parts really has taken a lot of time. While it can get very frusterating at times, I am still working hard on it and hope to release a beta in the next couple of weeks. I'm very sorry it's so far away, I just underestimated the difficulty of dealing with the Tapatalk service.
To developers: The Tapatalk API uses XML-RPC, which in my opinion, is ridiculous. A lot of things are base64 encoded and I read that XML-RPC is 4x heavier than XML, let alone JSON. Also, with XML-RPC, the response model cannot be serialized very easily. I've developed a system to do so but takes a lot of work to do for each new data type.
Basically, the Tapatalk API is more complex and harder to work with (at least to me) than anything else I've developed an app for, including Box.net, Pastebin.com, sports scores apps, RSS feeds, Edmunds.com, and AudioGalaxy.com.
Thanks to everyone who signed up, even though it may end up being a few weeks in advance.

have sent you PM.

New Demo Video Available
I know, it isn't the prettiest, or fastest, but I've been working hard and it's time for me to show you a video of ForumTalk in action.
A few things to point out:
I am not really asking for feedback based on this video yet
The choppiness is because of the emulator, it runs much better on my Lumia 900
I know XDA-Developers is in my recent forums list 4 times...
The UI needs work
This is only to show you what you signed up to test
I know it needs a lot of work - it's not even close to beta quality yet
Find the video here: http://youtu.be/fAUwTK00DEI
Thank you.

Seems far more responsive than BEP, so kudos there

I'm still waiting for the beta link to be active, can't wait though!

The app needs CF3.5 and is created with the help of the excellent sliderlist by Obelix_A
Current Features
- read full articles available from StraitsTimes.com Free
- view pictures and captions related to the articles
- change font size for articles
- offline syncing
- low-bandwidth mode (by displaying images only when articles are read)
- auto updater
Planned Features
- reading of articles from a specific date
- bookmarking articles
Known Bugs/Issues
- application is known to crash for Omnia2 and OmniaPro devices, upon a selection of a section

i would appreciate feedback and feature-requests.
Your last picture posted here has a grammatical error - 'has been', not 'has be'.
Tried this app. Very smooth.. in fact, a bit too sensitive.. When i scrolled, I keep opened links accidentally.
A ligther background or something more 'relax' would be nice I think. This is a bit too 'dark' to my liking.
hey bro, i tried looking hard, couldnt find the gramatical error.... i might be going blind
as for the over sensitivity, rest assured i would be passing the feedback to obelix, the creator of the slider control; which is used in this app. I have to give him credit for making this awesome control that cuts the development by almost half when designing the UI portion
Would take that as a feature request and put it into my tast list for the next few releases
once again thanks for not only using the app, but providing feedback for it too. There is no point in people just using app without telling us, the developers, what they really want to see. Its after all you the users who end up using it on a daily basis. So thank you!
on a side note, got a nice email from microsoft this morning
Hi
Just wonder - would you consider making this reads the other Singapore e-news intead of just ST? While it's nice to have one app for one news site, I really don't like the idea of filling my screen with few icons for different newspaper.
Just a thought. Of cos', it would have to be a different names then. Ha..
But this programme so far running very smoothly and scrolling is good too. Well done!
hmm, it would increase the complexity of the app, introducing the possibilities of having more bugs. I would avoid that.
moreover i have done up the CNA app as well as the backend of Today app as well... just a matter of time before they become general release items as well
http://www.mobinauts.com/topic/110817-local-app-channel-news-asia/
It seems very cool...but I would like to have this for other newspaper...
the straits time with Windows Phone 7 theme. Nice touch
Definitely gonna try this out. Great development.
looks great! will try it out now
sw33t
This is great, though wishing there are others like CNA or Newpaper
Also I'm getting this error on my HD2 once in a while after I quit or while using the app (can't take a screenshot for some odd reason)...but other than that, it's working fine. And I notice a 2 second lag when I scroll it way way up or down (till the icons are gone) before they appear again but meh, I could still live with it
Code:
STmobile.exe
ObjectDisposedException

System.Windows.Forms.Control.InvokeHelper(Delegate method, Boolean fSynchronous, Object[] rgobjArgs)

STmobile.settingsFile.updateSyncState()

thanks for the bug report. i will fix this before the next release.
as for the CNA app, already done it. a few selected users are now testing it... would be available soon: http://www.mobinauts.com/topic/110817-local-app-channel-news-asia
here is another app i did initially: 4D and Toto http://spoolsmobile.appslah.com/
initally planned to do TNP as well, but i soon found out that TNP is slightly harder and they lack online content.
are there any alternatives for things like Australian or UK news? it looks amazing!

[Released V1.3]Daily Series : Tv shows tracking app

Hello,
The app is composed of 3 main screens:
1 panorama containing
- "my daily" : the incoming episodes. with buttons to mark episodes as acquired / watched. orange is for "aired" blue is for "acquired"
- "manager" : to manage favorite shows / add shows to favorites
- What's new : a random selection of the last updated shows.
Here are a few screen caps :
{
"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"
}
White theme
1 other panorama containing the details on a show :
and a page containing details about each episode.
Off course, settings and "about"
it shows the number of episodes aired since the last launch of the app
video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3sh6jF4t6o
This app has been released in french, english and spanish, german should come soon
Data about episodes and shows are available thanks to tvDb.
V1.3 :
- language bug fixed, you can now look for a show in your native language (if supported by tvdb)
- show posters can now be saved to your picture library (they make excellent lock screens)
- diverse other improvements
http://www.dwilin.com/
Hey man, looks pretty good.
One thing that popped out at me: The refresh/sync button in the first set of screen shots. It looks like it will be a bit hard to hit (I've got fat fingers ). For an end users point of view it would probably be better in the application bar (although it may look a bit lonely there).
just my twocents
hello
Thanks for your answer !
it's a good suggestion, we will take care of this tonight
ps: video is (finally) working
youtube tag doesn't work?
Looks good. I really like the fact you get info on every episode of the show. It would be cool if would add reminders and live tile notifications of upcoming episodes. If that was added I'd pay $1.99 and if not $.99.
It is a nice app either way, but it would be a hard sell for more than 2 bucks.
Sent from my SGH-T849 using XDA App
I had one of these types of apps in progress before I just gave up on it due to not really feeling like finishing it. One idea that I wanted to integrate into mine, but never found out if it was possible was something like a calendar sync. You hit the button and bam, it will add it to your calendar to remind you which night a certain show might be premiering or returning to TV.
thanks yor your answers,
for the calendar, we wanted to do so, but no api is available in WP7, the only possibility was for us to access the users gmail account and send reminders in.
But it implied storing personal connection data, and we don't like that.
If new apis are available in new wp7 updates we will probably check it out
for the live tile, I think it will be in a V2
Looking good. Was actually looking for an app like this. I assume it will only show the original airdates in the country of origin? Would it somehow be possible to let the user add a custom day of week, so they can check what shows are on that day?
Hello
We originally wanted to convert airtime to the users timezone, but we don't have the "original timezone' information on tvdb.
For your other question : I didn't really understand what you mean.
(or maybe?) : you would like to see what airs on tuesdays for example?
or for a specific date?
Let's say I've added Big Bang Theory to my watch list. In the UK this show is on a Wednesday, so I'd assign that day to this show. Someone else might be watching the repeat on Fridays, so they pick that day instead.
Then somewhere in the app, I could check what's on each day of the week and if I looked on Wednesday it would list Big Bang Theory and any other shows I've flagged for that day.
It wouldn't have to have to say what episode or anything (no dates or times either), just that the show is on. Like a reminder and personalized TV guide.
I think it would be a great feature considering the fact that most shows air on different days around the world.
Appologies if this is already covered in the app, I didn't see it in the screenshots or video though.
Protip: Please add a notice in the app saying something along the lines of "All data provided by TheTVDB.com" and "if you enjoy our services and can afford it, please show us by donating" linking to our Donate page.
Also be advised there will be an official TheTVDB client in the future, with interactive functionality - i.e. ratings, personalized recommendations and so on. You've done some good work here though. If there are any API calls you feel could be optimized for mobile, do let me know (some have already been re-written specifically for WP7, although they are still in private testing).
Hello,
there is already the "about" section containing informations and links to tvdb. (I contacted Scott about this app)
News :
we added the live tile functionality!
If a new episode airs, the live tile will be updated.

Lol I actually thought the App had been released and searched for it...
Ugh I'm liking this app alot (Manga!!!!!) and I'd like to know if you guys have a time frame or any new developments
As for price, most might disagree with me.. But I do value the effort developers put towards their apps, and I am not afraid to go as far as $4-5 depending how fast updates and the application works. It's a service to us and an income to you ;-) Hopefully lol.
Hello,
We are currently tweaking the app to make it as fast as it gets and once it's done, it will be sent for validation to microsoft.
thanks for your replies.

Evo7 (Tamagotchi App)

In the German Forum "PocketPC " came the desire for a "Tamagotchi" App.
A colleague and I have therefore decided to develop Windows Mobile for this app.
We are still very inexperienced with XNA and will therefore develop V1.0 with visual studio and Blend.
V1.0 is almost done and we hope to present you this App in the next weeks.
The good news:
We are offering this app for free as long as incurred no costs for us. (servers, Web services and so on)
In addition, the app will be free of advertising.
We hope that international interest is as great as in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and we would appreciate it if we get help in developing, in case we need them.
Here are two screenshots which give you a sneak preview.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In the next few days I'll post another photo that shows more of the app itself.
Here is the link for all who speak german and want to learn more about the app:
http://www.pocketpc.ch/windows-phone-7-apps/125073-tamagotchiaehnliche-app.html
The Tamagotchi is called "Evo7". The short version of "evolution".
So the evo will grow up. At the first start the evo inside an egg and over the time it's breaking out of the egg. ;-)
v1.0 will give the option to choose only between the color of the evo.
More characters will be add in the next version.
So far: Stay tuned. ;-)
Greetings from Germany,
Kranked90
I would love a tamagachi app. I hope theres an option to switch between extremely needy(like live tile needy) and just normally. (When the app is open)
That's a bit confusing isn't it? >_>
I do want it though.

also edit my first post to add this.
info:
version 1.0 is submitted to the marketplace (first Germany, Austria and Switzerland).
We'll need some days to translate the app to english.
Stay tuned. ;-)
Great to see you're releasing it for free (and also without annoying ads)
But still I would like to see more screenshots
I would wait for the new toolkit before you start developing an onlinemode, as it contains socket-apis, which will make things much easier
Sincerly,
DeathLamp
BTW: So it's developed without XNA isn't it?

Yes, it's developed without XNA, because we have no experience with XNA.
But we're working on that and maybe v2.0 will be developed with XNA. ;-)

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....

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.

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.

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.

You need Windows Phone 7.5 "Mango" to install it.

Why not just get it from the marketplace? What's the point of side-loading it?
I would say people try it with IE. Yes, i mean Internet Explorer
I can't download in the UK.

[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!
- Lance
Hi,
I developed an free app called Zero to Hero:
{
"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"
}
"The app let's you explore your yet unplayed music, those of your songs that you haven't yet ever played on your phone."

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.

Awesome, I will download it and try it out. Looks pretty cool and sounds interesting.
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).
Thanks!

I'm glad you're interested in it, by the way, if you like to have a look at the apps "source" go here: https://www.touchdevelop.com/ckbttdal
Good news everyone, I have reviewed all your App's and shortly look for them in a future episode.
Also, have a WP8 App? Let me know!
I still have lot to learn and to improve a lot my apps, but this is one of my top apps with around 300k downloads:
Mega ringtones HD free:
http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=e680a7ec-847a-453b-bb90-a474c5ff95d2
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).

Great news, good to hear.
No WP8 apps in the near future from my side, since the SDK runs exclusively on Windows 8.
- What a pity, Microsoft.
