[Q] Menu for Dual Sim adapter - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a Dual Sim adapter from MagicSim in my HD2 on WP7. Up to now I can switch between Sim cards only with "007" mode.
Now I have read about development of STK for WP7:
"SIM Applications (STK) for hTC windows phones 7 by ansar"
Will this offer to switch between Sims with a real menu like in WM6.5 or Android?
greetings

So far as I know, nobody has actually gotten STK working on WP7. It's included with every phone (I don't know if there's anything different about Ansar's version, but I wouldn't be surprised to learn that there isn't) but if you figure out how to install it (not *that* hard) it doesn't seem to be a usable app.

Smartphone that work in Japan?

I live in Japan and I've been looking for a smartphone that could work on a network here.
I don't know much about phones, but I'd like to use a phone that can sync with outlook, has qwerty keyboard and perhaps can run some PC applications (if that's possible). Voice is secondary, I would even like an HTC shift if I could use it on an unlimited data plan.
Can anybody help a fellow gaijin? Those of you who live in Japan, what phones are you using?
Thank you!

Q9c (Sprint) Question

I got a Q9c about a month ago and a couple days ago learned how to "unlock" it. I installed a few apps, but now want to edit the way it looks and the menus.
Where in this site should I start? There's all these names like Excalibur and what-not, that don't make sense so far to me. But this is my first "smart" phone. I'm not un-savvy with technology, just this is my first WinMo device/phone.
Mainly what I want is to be able to customize (maybe add a whole customized page of) the start menu so that the programs I always want handy are available quickly, and I want to add a couple widgets to the Homescreen.
Remember that I am not dumb, I am tech savvy, but this is my first time with WinMo. I have 6.1 and it's a Q9c on the Sprint network. I have a 16G microSD installed for storage (looking for compatible 32G, but can't find any reasonable).
Ok, now that I've written a novel, please help. Thanks in advance.

REQ: BCR APP Really useable in HD2?

Hi guys!
I've come to use from time to time the BCR (Business Card Reader) APP bundled in recent HTC devices.
HD was "bearable", however the HD2 one, even with its 5 MP+autofocus+dual flash camera, has dropped the ball, since it's almost useless (I know of no one getting a single card completely and properly recognized), so I wonder if anyone has got any "older" BCR version to work on the HD2, or any similar SW BTW.
Any hint would be greatly appreciated.
I even bought a dedicated OCR card scanner, (close to 100 $ !!) but performace is also poor and inconvenient (wait till you get back to your office from a business trip, with a few dozens cards to scan..........)
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
The OCR capabilities of WorldCard Mobile are real big sh*t.
I painfully need WORKING business card recognition software for Windows Mobile.
For now much better way is only to save the photos of the business card without terrible recognition of WorldCard Mobile.
I have experience with ABBYY FINE READER and can say - it's the best.
But ABBYY Business Card Reader not available for Windows Mobile

Thanks for your advice, I'll try to find the ABBY BCR, though some others are available for PCs.
Just a shame HTC did bundle such a useless piece of crap into the HD2.

windows mobile for Android mobile devices

Please,
I'd like to know if is it possible to have a dual boot
for android mobile device (acer liquid) and windows mobile
thanks
I'd love to know about this too. Android's been impressing me on my FUZE, but I'm not entirely willing to dive in without a safety net.
If I could look forward to an AT&T version of Incredible in the future (or something similar) that would allow me to slip into WinMo if need be, I'd love it.
Or even better... an Android-native app that would launch WinMo apps. that way I'd be able to port over my beloved KinomaPlay. ^^d
Retro users?
Hi there,
I tried to search the question's forums and turned up to "no thread" on the subject.
When I tried to start one (and only then) I bumped into it!
Ok, I've being using Android for sometime now and do like it some but from time to time I just miss to have a smartphone that don't keep upgrading it's apps all the time!
Unfortunately there have been no decent WM phone on the brazillian operators of late (no Wm7 down here) and I quite could not leave the "eCompass" behind (saw no WM phone with it!).
Just now I'm waiting for some Nokia WM phones but until then...
(Possible I imagine that it is but)
... is there some hotshot out there to fix a WM version on an Android Device (like Defy or Galaxy Tab)?
C u!
There are quite a few compass apps on the Android Market.... Can you describe something unique eCompass does that you haven't found an adequate replacement?
Ah, before I go...
... Just to sign on the thread notification!
Just to the records...
(It appears that I was misunderstood and that my previous attempt at explaining it was unsuccessful!)
I was saying that I do not know of any WM device with compass capability! Just GPS.
"eCompass" was supposed to stand for electronic compass. It was not an app!

(Still awaiting...)
My friend try to do same thing on his android phone but no chance. I have another friend that can do it but he has some sort of universal phone that can had all os's made for phone.

BBM on Android. With PIN and blackberry plan. works on iPhone!

Hi,
I've searched a lot on the forum and on other sites as well.
While I'm a noob, I do get that BBM is a pin based messaging application, and no one can generate a fake pin.
Also, that getting the service provider to activate Blackberry services on a phone whose EMEI doesnt match is difficult.
I was using a blackberry, and thus have a pin number. Also my sim card (I am on a GSM network) already has full blackberry services which are active and paid for. If i put the sim back in my bb, everything works perfectly.
Now the question i ask is, since BBM is essentially a java app, is it possible for me to somehow install or emulate it on my android using my old Blackberry pin??
I found that this is possible for the iPhone (not sure of how well it works):
edit: I'm not able to post links as i'm a noob, so you'll have to open these manually! sorry. My apologies also for going around the rule, but the post would be incomplete without this info!

wevito.com/Blog/Entries/2009/10/31_How_to_use_bbm_on_your_iphone.html
the interesting question is, can something like this work on Android.
And if anyone would not mind answering a iPhone related question, is the above shown genuinely possible?
Thanks in advance for the help guys. Hopefully this is a new train of thought and not something I missed in my searches!
Black Knight
no help here?
even a simple it can't be done??
It would be nye on impossible..you'd need to have your phone permanently connected to the blackberry service (and paying the £5 a month for the pleasure) thus blackberry would know its not a genuine BB connected (due to the invalid PIN). I suppose the only way its possible is if you have an old BB, nick its PIN and emulate the phone. I cannot begin to imagine how much battery that would use.
All in all, get whatsapp.
thanks ptdborth..
i already have whatsapp...but its impossible to convice all of my old BB contacts to get it!
i'm already paying for the BB service, (paid in advance for a year) and I do have a old blackberry whose PIN i can nick!
so my question exactly is, how do I nick the old pin and use it/emulate it in the new phone??
thanks!
