[Q] Conversion of iOS app to WP7.. - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi lads,
There is an app called AFL Supercoach on the iOS app store. I want that app on WP7 but have absolutely no hope that it is in development. I was wondering whether it would be possible to convert it using the tool MS had released. The tool with all the indexed codes and stuff..
Would it be possible? In a WP7 layout (Zune like)? And how hard would it be?
I'm not an experienced developer..
cheers guys, Abz

Its too early for me to dig up a link but if you go to MSDeveloper pages, there is a link for porting apps from iOS to WP and Android to WP. I am not an experienced developer either but love tinkering stuff from days of WM and android. I am currently porting 2 Android apps to WP. Takes time initially but isn't that difficult. Give it a shot. If you fail to find a link, holla me, when I've opened my eyes I will search it and paste it here. Hope this will help. Happy developing for WP!

Hey dude,
Got the link and also the app that I'm working on. But how do I know which file from inside the iOS app corresponds to which file within the WP7 app? They have different names....
And for the corresponding APIs and codes, do I have to use the online"directory" on the MSDeveloper or is there an alternative program available?
Cheers, Abz

Most apps can be developed using Mircosoft Visual Studio. You can download free versions here (http://www.microsoft.com/express/). Although they might not support mobile development I can't remember it's been so long since.
As for books, I am prety much self taugh other than the odd C# book to get me going.

Having just checked out how to start WM6 programming yesterday, the requirement is Visual Studio 2005 or later (professional for touch devices I think). Express wont work.

[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

I recently changed my HD2 for an Evo....Mix feelings!!!!
I noticed that on my Hd2 I could send,change and even create Word documents..
I can not find a way to do this on my new Evo4G..Any help?????
the hd2 is windows mobile based thus providing users with the mobile version of microsoft office.....the evo is an android device that is still capable of viewing, creating and editing documents......buuuuut u have to purchase the office app from the market.....or i may know a way to get a free version if you can find a way to contact me.....
Documents To Go is a great Office app.

The EVO comes pre-loaded with QuickOffice, which I believe allows you to see/edit word files.
