I'm asking since I'm gonna be picking up a Dell Venue Pro (again) I been using Android for a while and I enjoy it. The thing I love the most is the integration with gmail and calendars. Being able to open my calendar on my Macbook and for it to automatically update my calendar on my Droid Pro is convenient. From what I remember, WP7 should sync up the calendar with your gmail account but I'm wondering if theres anyone out there that is able to balance using both phones? For example, I want to be able to write down notes on one phone and for somehow that carry over to my Dell Venue Pro. There was a program called AK Notepad for Android and whatever notes I'd write down on my Droid Pro, I'd be able to access on my Nexus One.
I still carry around my Nexus One without SIM...just because Android allows me to do many things I still cannot with my Optimus 7... so for now, at least until Mango update, I will be carrying two phones.
I have several android devices to play with but still carry my surround as my every day phone. I like both. As to having full cloud based sharing on multiple platforms? I don't think they play that nice quite yet

Apparently Evernote (http://www.evernote.com/) is almost ready for Windows Phone 7, which should allow you to create/access notes on pretty much every platform out there.
Try using cloud based apps. It's pretty easy between iPhone and Android, or Android and Android.
It's not that easy with WP7 because we don't have too many apps right now. Looking forward to it!
Juggling between a samsung focus and hopefully in a few hours a galaxy s2. Until mango, the galaxy s2 will be my main phone tho
I have both.
Actually the fact that many users use both speaks for itself....
Anyway I have both of them and ditched WP7 because carrying two devices to do the same thing is kinda nonsense.
There's nothing WP7 does Android can't do
However there are tons of things Android does while WP7 just can't.
WP7 may be very appealing in some scenarios.
Just write your notes in the gmail calendar and sync it on both devices, that's what I do, works like a charm.

That's actually so simple.
Plus on Android you can send to calendar notes from Note Everything
I also have my wildfire without sim and my htc trophy. I don't now if i will keep the trophy. I am giving it some time to convince me. I am carrying 2 phones for now. One of the most annoying things in windows phone 7 is that the wifi sleeps when the screen is off, so nothing that syncs (gmail, gtalk, calendar, etc)...syncs! Microsoft says its "by design", well i don't like it. Maybe after the Mango update.

I'm not a big wifi user but the same thing happens with bluetooth and it's so disgustingly annoying!! I will be streaming music to my car radio using bluetooth and when a song ends while the screen is off, the phone will automatically disconnect the bluetooth connection and I have to go back to settings and reconnect it and why is bluetooth always searching and discoverable??? What, they couldn't add another slider to switch discovery mode on and off so I don't have to see 50 headsets on my list??
I'm not a power user so i don't need all the fancy stuff Android can do. WP7 is great for me as I mainly use exchange and office, but it's the stupid little details that get you frustrated!

OneNote Exists for WP7 and you can view it in a browser. EverNote has too many restrictions for how much data you can transfer, and it requires yet another account creation (ugh!).
Android phones usually come with a memo app (my Vibrant has it), and they typically allow you to send notes via SMS/MMS, Email, etc.
I carry both an HD7 and a Vibrant with Active SIMs in them everywhere. I put my Unlimited Data SIM in my HD7 when I got it because of Zune Pass, but I'm about to switch it back to my Vibrant.
Audio Quality on the Vibrant is 200% better than on the HD7. You basically need headsets with the HD7. The Vibrant's sound can fill a decent sized room. Call and Speaker Phone quality ... the comparison is the same. Vibrant is wildly superior. It's like comparing a surround sound system to a pocket radio...
The HD7 is useless as a phone comapred to the Vibrant. The signal is consistently 2 bars lower and call quality is more volatile. I feel like I'm in the middle of New York on an AT&T iPhone 4 when I'm on the HD7. The Vibrant performs flawlessly.
The HD7 is only useful as a PMP IF you have a decent pair of headsets or a BT Jabra device with FM transmitter in your car (like I do).
The terrible speaker and cell radio in this thing is already enough to relegate it to backup status, but there is the issue of Apps and Services integration.
Android has better apps. After heavy use of both phones. The Android versions perform better and are more stable as well. Twitter for WP7 (even Birdsong) and Twitter for Android... the Android version runs circles around it. Same for Facebook. LinkedIn doesn't exist for WP7.
No decent IM Applications. Half-baked MMS. Can't send Videos off the device via MMS or Email.
A phone can be made better (maybe the DVP has better speakers than the HD7, and a better radio with better data speeds and call quality), but the OS is half-baked and puts way too many limitations on what you, or any app can do. This means there is a definite roadblock IRT functionality that anyone can hit on WP7 that isn't possible on some other platforms.
In addition to that, there are a ton of applications that are missing from the market, and those that are coming (that matter) won't be here for another 6 months or so.
If I was "upgrading" from a dumb/feature phone it probably wouldn't be an issue. But coming from WM/Android/WebOS and having used iPhones more than enough... It's unacceptable as a daily driver.
It has all the detriments of an AT&T iPhone in New York (poor reception/call quality/wildly flunctuating signal strength that never goes above 3 bars even standing under a 3G tower) with none of the benefits (High Quality Apps, Services Integration, Top Apps). In addition to that, the Audio Quality makes it hit and miss even as a ZuneHD replacement, and the Codec Support is just not cute compared to something like a Galaxy S device. There is no DLNA capability, either. Battery Life is not better than an iOS/Android device, so that's not an advantage.
Disclaimer: Some of these issues (in particular the reception/call quality problems) may be an issue with the phone and not the OS itself - but T-Mobile only sells one WP7 device in carrier stores so take that for what it's worth. One other person I know has an HD7 and when I asked him how he likes it he responded (I'm quoting him word for work...) "The call quality is ****, but it's okay I guess." So I'm pretty sure it's not due to having a lemon device

I don't use BT much but I understand the frustration, however the entire platform has been launched under the premise that it's not static or even completed as far as I understand. And given the track record of how MS usually deliver products (a main product and then many "hotfixes" and service packs) I expect most of these small things will be fixed in time.
Still annoying that they manage to miss such apparent things.

Android does this as well, that's why some applications (like Trillian for Andorid) have a setting to keep WiFi on when the phone sleeps.
I actually prefer it that way. If the phone is charging the WiFi stays on, however. They do it to conserve battery life, and that was a good decision...

Click Wi-Fi Settings, Menu button and go to advanced, change your policy to never sleep, hit menu again and save.
I know that. I was pointing out the default behavior, though

Well atleast the option is there unlike in Microfot's product.
BTW, in the areas where you might have a weak cellular data signal havung your phone connected to a Wi-Fi access point is morr power efficient netting better battery life.
Kind of surprised at the number of people with dual phones. I have a Surround and an Inspire 4G. Before I upgraded to Gingerbread, the Inspire 4G was just so damned choppy, I couldn't really use it for long before I was ready to throw it. Now, it is my primary phone. My Surround has so-so build quality and much more limited functionality. I certainly wish for turn-by-turn directions via Bing maps. NoDo has made it much more fun to use as a communication tool with C&P, and it's smooth as can be. If my work would get the Exchange server up and running instead of using a third party host, I could see it being my primary phone. Until then, its all Android.

with an HD7 that would be everywhere, becuase the radio is so terrible it can never go above 3 bars even if I'm standing under an HSPA+ radio. My Vibrant's radio is 100% better.
I cannot use the HD7 as a phone, it's just too terrible. I only use it to play music these days and after I ETF one of these lines in a month or two I'll probably think hard about getting rid of it - probably just enough to cover the ETF fee, of a bit less than that...
Don't think this is necessarily unique to the Pixel 2 XL, but that's the phone I'm currently using. Since I purchased the phone a couple months ago, every site I pull up on Chrome will automatically reload every 30 seconds to a minute. Even chrome:// setting pages aren't immune. It doesn't matter if I have one tab open or 15. I tried clearing all Chrome data and settings, but that didn't have any effect.
I've seen lots of reports of Chrome refreshing inactive tabs, but that isn't what's happening here. Anyone else experience this issue? Other browsers (i.e. Firefox) aren't affected. I'm currently on 8.1.0 with the December 5, 2017 patches. Chrome is currently up-to-date (63.0.3239.111).

I'm not seeing this at all. I can't recall the last time I saw a page refresh in Chrome... ever. Maybe it will shift a bit (or look like refresh) while loading a really graphics intensive page, but once it fully loads it does not change. Are you using an adblocker? Maybe you've changed a setting or flag in Chrome. Flags now sort by date modified, so you can see the ones you've changed at the very top. ie. chrome://flags/
I've never had a tab just refresh while viewing it. I did have an issue where pages would refresh if I switched away from a tab or from Chrome to another app. It was a pain in the ass if I was doing something like typing in a comments section and wanted to look at a different tab or app. I haven't had that problem since getting my Pixel 2 XL.
I've been getting this on chrome the most, but I've had it refresh/redraw on a variety of apps. XDA, Google Messenger, Facebook messenger, and Inbox are the other common ones.
Yeah, this has been driving me nuts. I used to stay logged into my company website for a couple of hours but this constant reloading logs me out and I have to log back in. Super annoying.
Sounds like you should look at RAM usage around the time that it happens. May be you're aggressively swapping between mobile data and wifi? Shot in the dark
YES!! YOU ARE NOT ALONE! I have this issue too! Both on my pixel 2 xl (I've owned 3 of them, it happened on all of them) and also my pixel 2 xl. RAM is definitely not the issue here. It even happened while I was in safe mode. So I'm thinking it might be something substratum or magisk related.
Here are the apps I currently remember being affected by this refresh issue.
Telegram
Youtube
Chrome
Tugabrowser
Gboard
Textra
Mozilla Firefox for Android
Perhaps we could all provide a list of applications that we have installed, cross-reference the ones common to all of our devices so we can narrow down our search?
In this thread they suggest it's a network issue. When your phone get's low on signal, people have suggested it is causing the refresh. Check running your phone with airplane mode on and see.
It's happening to me constantly on my Pixel 2 XL and it's maddening. I am sitting 5' away from my router (OnHub). I cannot even write this post properly.
Total shot in the dark, based on the network issues post, but remember the problem with Chromecast causing network issues a few weeks ago? For me the issue began just about the time that a fix was supposed to have been implemented. Just wondering if there may be a connection? I use Google Home, Chromecast and an OnHub. I also see occasional toast messages that I've lost WiFi when my Wifi is on an working fine on all my other devices.

Yeah man. I don't know about it being Chromecast related.. as i still have my Chromecast now, no pixel 2 xl and no stupid redraws.
I returned my pixel 2 and got a OnePlus 5t. Haven't had any of these problems since
Also Having this issue
I got in touch with support about this about a month after I got my Pixel 2. They had me clear the cache, then boot into "safe mode" which disables all 3rd party apps. in that condition the problem went away in chrome (the only app I had seen the issue in that I could access through "safe mode") so they suggested I so a factory reset, and add apps one at a time to hone in on the problem.
I was a bit miffed as I hadn't had any issues on my 6p, and I hadn't added any apps since I moved over to the Pixel, but I played along and started fresh.
I haven't seen the issue for about 3 months now, until yesterday. I have been adding apps slowly as I go, and the re-appearance of the problem doesn't seem to be tied to a specific app, since it has been over 2 weeks since I have added anything new to my phone aside from pictures and podcasts.

I tried the same thing. It still happened in safe mode. I'm inclined to believe it's a signal issue as others are saying
I posted this on another site, but thought I'd post here as well since I was looking for the answer here previously, in case anyone else is searching:
"Had been noticing this issue for a while, with Facebook, Chrome, Messages refreshing constantly. I have the Pixel 2 and a Skagen Hybrid watch. After reading this thread, found that the refresh was occuring every time bluetooth disconnected or reconnected, which was occurring frequently because it was at the edge of bluetooth range with the watch in another room.
Used IFTTT to log bluetooth connections and disconnections with the watch while the watch was in another room for an hour, followed by an hour wearing the watch with the phone nearby.
In the hour tested with the watch in another room, I logged 32 connections & 31 disconnections - would cause 63 refreshes. In the following hour testing with the watch on my wrist, I logged 0 connections & 0 disconnections.
If you find the same, disconnect the watch/turn off bluetooth when you're not wearing it to avoid the refresh issue. Might be the same with other bluetooth devices, didn't test using any others."

This is not a fix. I have a Withings Steel HR Sport (and previously a Misfit Shine 2) and I have that permanently connected, I also use bluetooth for the car so I don't want to be turning this off and on all day. I didn't have this issue at all under similar conditions, it only started popping up around July for me and it is infuriating when apps, videos and webpages are refreshing whilst reading them. I have factory reset my phone once and that didn't solve the issue either.
Is anyone else still experiencing this issue?
Pixel 2XL with Android 9.
Longtime Pixel user here...first Samsung phone. Bought the unlocked Z Fold 3, was told it worked with Google Fi...it does, however I don't believe I've been on any other network than T-Mobile. I'd like to be able to force switch carriers or even have the phone switch carriers when necessary...any Samsung tricks I am not aware of here?
Get the app FiSwitch (or similar) there are many on the play store.
I have tried a few.. none allow for carriers switching. Looks like there are some permissions missing
Tiring to sync to other programs but not having much luck yet. Not to the watch either, have to use Samsung Health.
This has never happened with any of my other Android phones or tablets. I have installed the Kindle app on my new Z Fold3 in the ordinary manner. When I go online to Amazon's web page to view my devices the Fold3 appears twice as though it were installed on two separate devices. My OnePlus 7 and my tablet only show up a single time. When I change the name of the Fold, both of them change on the list of devices. When I delete the app from my Fold, they both disappear from the app list.
The only difference is that each of the Folds on the device list display a different "email to device" address.
This does not seem to affect my use of the app, although I wonder whether or not it could trigger a limit threshold as some Kindle books can only be used on a certain number of devices at a time.
More than anything else this is kind of a curiosity and a little bit of an OCD thing. I am very curious if anyone else has encountered this, and if so were they able to do anything about it.

Mine seems to do that too, although it just shows Android device 13 instead of Fold. Maybe Amazon sees the cover screen and the inside screen as 2 separate devices since some apps sort of work that way?
So, I had the Pixel Watch working just fantastic on the Pixel 6. Now I've upgraded to the Pixel 7 Pro. I read somewhere that I had to reset the watch for it to work, and yes, that was necessary, so I did it.
Now I'm in the process of completely setting up the watch again and I'm almost done.
The one thing that is still insoluble for me is the "Maps" app. When it was set up in the Pixel 6, my home address was showing on the watch screen, on the top where it says "Home" - now, with the Pixel 7 Pro, it does not. I have set everything else exactly the same way as before - but this one setting eludes me. I can't find a way to do this in the phone app, or in the watch - somehow, I think is was kinda automatic with the Pixel 6, but I don't really remember (old guy here - 73, but I think my memory is pretty good...I could be wrong).
Everything is updated to hell and back and somehow I'm missing something.
Can anyone help?
BTW, I'm loving the 7 Pro.
Thanks for any help.
Well, I kinda figured it out - I had to use the Maps app on the phone and that updated itself, and then updated the watch. The whole Pixel 7 Pro setup was a tiny bit weird. For example, I could see the watch was connected to Bluetooth, but setting up some parts of the watch would keep saying "can't connect".
A very odd experience.
All is OK now.
Oh, you got it working??? It is a known issue that for some users (me!) the watch will not update or populate home/work (I'm retired so work is HOME ). I have the 6 Pro. I just got it in the Spring so not yet ready to jump aboard another upgrade. I might try to update Maps on the phone but I expect it will not work.
Interesting. I had the Pixel 6 (non pro) when I first got the watch and it worked right the very first time.
This time I used a brand new Pixel 7 Pro, fresh out of the box, and reset the watch. I realized that I had not yet used Google Maps on the phone, so I did and the watch updated at that time.
Like you, I'm retired and needed "home".
Pixel 7 Pro + Pixel watch: Not working for me.
Everything is updated, work + home is defined on the phone, watch refuses to accept any of it.

Updated, rolled back, rebooted. NOTHING has worked.
I wish I could help you guys, but all I did is set "Home" on Google Maps on my phone.
Maybe deleting the Maps from the watch and starting again? I know fred2546 rebooted and all, but honestly all I did is define "Home" in the phone. Probably doesn't mean much but I have the Pixel 7 Pro.
Pixel 6 Pro.
Now I had defined home but I don''t work so did not define my home a second time. But I will also admit that I do not allow Google to track me in my everyday pursuits and movements. I do not have location history enabled or whatever that setting might be.
I sort of agree about not wanting to be tracked, but some time ago I decided I didn't really care. I'm old (73), retired, and live with my cat - they can send me ads, notifications, and whatnot until the end of time - I will never buy anything that's emailed, or a phone call, to me as an offer, and I block a whole lot of calls - I love playing with them.
But, fred2546, did you get it to work?

It did not work. Yesterday I was on my way out to a bike ride and on the watch did a search. First, it opened with Home/Work which remain undefined. But I put a local sushi joint in the search. It came up with the name and then suggested I see the PHONE. Since I needed to meet the bike riding friend I did not follow up.
Obviously, Google knows quite a bit anyway. I use Google Fi as my carrier and I did use Google Maps while touring around Iceland in Sept.
And I've got a few years on you but no cat!
Get a cat from a shelter and you will be handsomely rewarded by its lunatic personality. I love my Mr. PoopiHead, he's very affectionate and a complete loon.
I am not a cat person. I do on occasion feed friends' cats - more than enough for me!
