[Q] WP7 as Computer Webcam - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Looking for an app that will let me use my HD7 as a Webcam for my Computer.
I've have looked and can't find information on this anywhere
Is this possible?
If this app is already out there could someone direct it to me!
Thanks in Advance

I guess the answer is a sad no :-(

I do agree as well. WP7 lacks lots of features that were supported in Windows Mobile. I'm quite sure that this app will come soon.

There is a WP7 called "PocketCam" that can do this. Search it within Zune.

[REQ]Looking for developers, Spotify for mobile!

Hello. I'm sure the majority of this site know what Spotify is. And I've discovered some great stuff, that maybe could be ported to a WinMo device.
I'm really, really bad at coding, so I don't know if this is possible, but hey, why not, it's worth a try, right?
So, to the subject. Some Swedish hackers have hacked spotify and made a program to connect to their servers and stream music. It's all opensource, altough no GUI is available.
So my request is, port this program to a WinMo device, and make a nice graphical interface!
Here is the link to the program.

Come on people, someone? Make the code mobilefriendly and a nice GUI, somebody/a group must be able to do it?
Nobody? would love spotify in the mobile!
Still nobody that can look in to it?

despotify can't be ported to windows mobile. even though its possible, winmo doesnt have a native python runtime, the app would be huge, and to slow to actually be usable.
a new app would have to be programmed in C/C++ or C#
i would love this app two im a big spotify fan and use it alot
+1, seriously now spotify exists for Android and Iphone!
I have been working on a Windows Mobile Spotify client called mySpot.
The first alpha version is complete and I have uploaded it to the forum today.

i read on the blog that they are coding a java version. cant we just throw the java **** on your phones and run it in java?
I've ported despotify/jotify to C# (compact framework), and will release a working Windows Mobile client whenever I manage to build a nice GUI.
Maybe, some day, I will combine it with my old Grooveshark player, and create a all-in-one music app.
Stay tuned
Excellent news, nilezon, thanks. I'll look forward to this

WinMo Shaver/Clipper App

Have searched through the forums here and online otherwise and have found a few topics where this is mentioned, but cannot seem to find any Apps someone has attempted this for Windows Mobile.
Here's the kind of thing I'm talking about available from A.
http://tinyurl.com/yl63efp
If someone knows of a WinMo version of this can you point me in the direction of it? However if it doesn't exist yet I'm guessing it's not too difficult for one of the boffins to whip up! It's only a graphic of a Shaver and an Audio sound of a Shaver of which there's plenty available online.
Have some of this...

Clipper / Shaver application for Windows Mobile
Ta, thanks John - I was searching for 'Shaver' and not 'Clippers'
It's not as polished as the slick IP app, but still a bit of fun.
Cheers.
there's a shaver/clipper feature in an app called shootme http://www.shootme.mobi/?page=screenshots
also has a lighsaber, shotgun, whip, etc...

i have tried all of the apps in the market and believe that i can make something better. i main problem i have is that i use my xbox as a media center extender in my lounge, and none of the current apps support that.
also none of the current apps have any feedback from media center. i want to be able to browse my media on my phone, and then start it playing in media center.
Please Develop this Pronto

yes a truly useable app hope to see final version soon
I've been looking for something decent to control my media center for a while now. gmote and myremote are decent, but I'm always looking for something a bit more comprehensive.
You have my blessing!
I would definitely use this!
great to hear there is some interest.
just to let you all know this app is currently in development, and whilst i cant give you all an eta. i hope it wont take too long to get this app out into the wild.
Hi all, sorry for no updates,
been very busy in the studio and working on Music Mod.
The app is getting there, however i need to start work on the server and thats the bit that is confusing me. im an android dev, so windows development is very confusing to me haha.
Anyone wana help? tweet at me.
+1 I would love to see this sort of app....I use my 360 like that too!
Plz Make one.
UI is soo awesome.
Plz make sure it works on most phones.
like Samsung Spica i5700
to keep u all updated, i have been working on a couple of other projects so havnt had time to spend much time on this, however the problem im having is working on the windows side of things, as to be honest i only really know android.
Eliot
I'd love an app like this. Hopefully you'll find someone to help with the windows dev.
is this project dead now? it's actually a good idea, wmc always gets updates, could get complicated... but, anyway, nice project!
Have a look at this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wssxuN-OYvk
That's by far the most awesome remote control app ever created...

Which OS/device for Outlook sync?

Hi there!
I don't usually start posts 'cause reading yours I find what I'm looking for. But since a long time I have a general question for a particular issue. I found people with the same trouble, but the answer is not clear for me.
Let me make an introduction:
I now own a HTC HD with Windows Mobile 6.5. I'm very satisfied with this device and OS because my needs are fully covered. I'm very comfortable with the speed boost from a custom ROM I installed and it does what I need (calls, music, photo, SMSs, GPS). The point is that this device is getting... old. It has 3 years and... well, it has received several hits... :| So I'm thinking that soon I'm going to need another one. And here's the question: which OS? I don't mind if it is Android, WP, iOS, or whatever... But I've got one essential requirement: Outlook. .... I've got about 15 mail accounts I must control, and thousands of data saved over the years saved in my Outlook on my PC. Now I only need ActiveSync to synchronize the contacts, calendar and appointments. Because of that, don't propose using Gmail or similar. I've got tons of data in my PC and lots of accounts. And I don't want/need a continuous data connection because I DON'T NEED IT and, here in Spain, the prices are abusive...
Another application I use a lot is GPS. I'm very happy with my Tomtom (fast, accurate and I update it when I want) and I HATE WIFI-GPS. What I've seen on friends devices made me hate it. I found it very poor accurate. Maybe it has improved... What do you think?
Well, I see Android and iOS devices of my friends and they didn't think Outlook sync can be done with them. Is it true? Can it be done in some way? Must I keep WM6 to do this? I can't believe that an old concern like this (Outlook is even present in Office 2013) can't be done with these modern and powerful devices!!
So that's the question: can I sync Outlook with a OS/device of nowadays? In which? If not, is there any alternative I may choose?
Thank you for your time!
The best for that purpose would be windows phone. It can be done with android/iOS but its way easier and native on windows phone.

Thank you lars1216 for throwing a bit of light.
I heard someone who said that Windows 8 won't be compatible with Outlook sync... Hope he was wrong!
So Windows Phone... OK.

[Q] Iphone functionality on RT

Hi there,
I am new to posting on the forums but have kept up-to-date regarding developments.
I was wondering, as it seems unlikely iTunes will ever be released / ported to the Windows RT system, does anyone know or have any methods to sync music between RT and the iphone? I don't mind it not being iTunes and was thinking there must be a round-a-bout way to accomplish this.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Try MediaMonkey, I am not sure if it works on RT but it do have a app there. Give it a try!
^_^ Feel free to press thanks button.
...
Thanks for the reply, is anyone able to confirm that the Windows RT version of the Media Monkey app actually offers the ability to sync with the iphone device. From what I've researched it normally requires the apple device drivers to be installed which seems unavailable on Windows RT?
Thanks
Take a look
