Automatic xap updater - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As the title implies, are there any homebrew app or PC software that automatically detects what xap you have installed on your phone and update them accordingly.
Or else these xaps will not update themselves.
Thanks!

For Marketplace apps, pin the Marketplace tile to the start screen and it will show how many apps have updates available on the live tile.
For homebrew apps, a few apps have built-in update checks but the best option I know of for automatic notifications (like the built-in Marketplace) is the Bazaar app.

About Marketplace, I would like to point out that sometimes it doesn't inform you that an app is update. But if you browse through the application list - using Marketplace or Wp7applist - you find there's an update...
Don't know if it is because of the roms I tried, or it is Marketplace...

It can take up to a day or so for update notifications to push to the phone. If you manually check the app in Marketplace, it will show the update option even if the notification hasn't reached your phone yet.

[Q] Status updates

on my windows phone 7 (htc 7 pro) when i post a status update from the integrated Me hub only i am able to see this post, how can i change the settings so that my friends see it?
On the facebook site is no such thing in the settings for the integrated app of facebook or me hub... can somebody help?
Do you have the Facebook API / app platform disabled? The built-in features of the phone rely on this (the official Facebook app apparently bypasses that setting).
Alternatively, are you sure that when you post an update, the option to post it to FB is checked? It should be, by default, but there are several other options too.
something about default privacy settings of your updates which can be changed through the website?

i tried all the options, in the privacy, friends can post to my wall, all can view my wall, other apps can post to my wall and my friends see it. but there is nothing to setup the app from windows phone (Me hub posts) to post and who can see this. like it is on other app like wordpress and some other... is there an "app" on facebook that i must give permissions to have that enabled?
i have found out that the app (me hub) uses something called windows phone for facebook, that stays right behind the post (like, coment, and then a minugte ago by windows phone) if you click on this "windows phone" it open up an empty site. nothing in there. only the ads from the site...
after days of searching i have found it. on my start screen of facebook, left there are app that i use, today poped out the red windows phone app logo and there if you click on setting you can manage who see it. But until today the app was not there...

Facebook

this is my very 1st tablet, always had android phones b4
could some1 explain me why both facebook app e mobile site look so ugly and differently than on phone?
even the new upgrade which should have share button: I can c it on phone but not on tablet
This is simply because Facebook has not optimized their app to be used on a larger interface.
The two options to circumvent this dilemna are as follows:
1) Download Friendcaster from the Play Store. It works well with tablets.
2) Go to Facebook.com and tap the ticker that allows for the full desktop version of the website to be shown.
I typically access Facebook.com directly through the browser and it's almost as good as the desktop version. There no real reason to use the app, imho.

It's funny, I've had Android tablets for so long I'm just used to the sometimes crappy app interfaces. Check this one out.
Samsung used to include a Social Hub which, while not very pretty, was great for aggregating FB, Twitter, and LinkedIn together and getting one set of notifications and being able to interact your feeds in a single widget. It's missing from the Note for some reason (I'd pay a bounty to get it back. )
The closest thing(s) I've found are an app called APW to manage Twitter and FB timelines and it comes with an excellent resizable widget. For LinkedIn I use Droidin Pro.

"Your phone companion" app sync with Windows 10

Hello all,
Microsoft announced support for the OnePlus 6 in their "Your Phone" app (on PC) through the "Your Phone Companion" app (on Android). It is supposed to let us see recent pictures, notifications, send messages and remote control (somewhat). https://www.xda-developers.com/windows-10-screen-mirroring-oneplus-6-6t-galaxy-s10-note-8/
I have mixed results, where I can send a SMS through my PC but I don't see my contacts, so I have to type their number in manually. I also can't see any recent messages or pictures. Also, if I turn my VPN on, then the Windows app just cannot see my OP6.
Has anyone succeeded in syncing their OP6 with their PC using Microsoft's apps?

Are you on Windows 10 build 18885? Idk if it came out of insider program or not yet
If not, then just wait for the official update to roll out to exclude any bugs that microsoft recently been strugling, or just opt in insider
