Does any one know when the windows mobile app that cotulla was making will be released?
He's got WP8 on the HD2 so possibly got distracted? Lol the man's a genius
Sent from my HD7 using Board Express
there sure isn't enough of that guy and his mates to go around, if its ready for public use im sure they will release it, although to put it in perspective we never did get the WM 5 ROM on the Alpine that we saw the videos of, again, im confidant that if it was ready for public use then it would have been released.
time will tell im sure!
Yea, I was waiting for this too. And created a thread about it with some images a while back. Watch his twitter page, he does a lot of updates there and if you ask on there about it, he might ping you back (like he did with me). Try not to ask about release dates, if I am correct, isn't it against XDA policy to ask when a dev is releasing something ?
I just grabbed a old Touch Pro 2 for like $20, and it uses the same batteries as my Trophy, so I just boot it up when I need it..

Afternoon guys, Flame me if this has already been discussed but thought I pass the news of my repaired Vario 3... It had upon it Winmob 6.1...HEHEHEHE oh
Unfortunately I had to pass the poor little blighter back has it still had not fixed my original issue.
Thankfully as this issue has been going on for a while they kindly replaced it with a brand new Vario 3
The bad news the new Vario 3 had Winmob 6.0... Ah never mind. Any how, SBE are T-Mobile’s logistics repair centre and if this is the case then the official release should be soon on the web site (Well I hope, but I could be proven wrong.)
Apologises is this is old news... I've not had the time to search the issue, but know from past experience it can take a while from SBE to official.
This is all good and all but I don't understand why t - mobile have taken so damm long to rollout windows mobile 6 to its HTC devices. Its been out for a while now after all ...

I spoke with a Tmobile insider, I've even seen the Demo room in Hatfield where all the little devices are on show to the business peeps. I got the impression from both parties that the testing of this device along side the network must be fully working. If anything fails they start again and put the date back. But may I stress both parties were coy to admit what the faults were.
I dared to mention the Vario4 and a smirk came along his face with the Phrase "i'm not at libilty to say when that device will be available"
About time! I'd almost given up hope!
Shame I've fallen in love with Manila type ROM's now.... but this should be useful to flash the device back to stock T-Mobile whenever I come to sell it on or have a problem.
Thanks for the news, I'll keep a look out for it.
(And hopefull Tmobile will release the Vario4 soon, Im looking to upgrade in December! If not... I'll have to take my business somewhere else!)
I recently received my UK Vario III back from repair to find it had been updated to 6.1 too. Unfortunately it seemed to be buggier and leakier than the original 6.0 :-(
I've since put PDACornerUltimate on and find it a much more worthwhile upgrade
Does anyone get news about TouchXperience?

umm sorry, it's 1:30 am here, but what does his web site say?? if i remember correctly he kinda left xda because people were hounding him about this and talking crap
Yep Joshkoss you're right.
He had some work issues and beta testing appears to have discovered some major bugs, he has to rewrite a whole bunch of the code to make it work properly. (hence the private beta testing, I don't know how people would have reacted if they discovered that bug while on public beta...)
He's trying to make his project finish befor christmas
source: his own site/forum
The Schaps ROMs have always been my favorite. Hasnt it been months since his last ROM?
yep... i pm'd him asking him if i can continue his work somehow but he hasnt logged in a while
People disrespected him and demoted his work; called it a hoax which was really uncalled for and rude for what he was doing. Doing such a task takes months if not more and people were so impatient wanting to try it out and when they didn't see anything, they just wanted to call him out.
Anyhow, this doesn't have much do to with Hermes Mobile 6 (i know he made some ROMs) so i'll move it to a more suitable forum.
It's such bull**** how people are rude to Schaps for what he is trying to do for this technology by bringing it *free* to the rest of us. I hope he doesn't release it out of spite.
new info on his website for all those impatient fellows out here

Happy New Year from TouchXperience!
TouchXperience website has not been updated since a long time but it was for a good reason, I was actively working on the project, solving issues and finalizing the different features to release TouchXperience as soon as possible, and I would not announce a release date until I’m sure of it. I’m working on the project since more than a year and release has been delayed several times, due to lack of free time and various difficulties beyond my control. Hopefully it comes to the end! All donators should have got an invitation for the private beta testing, and the public beta will be released on February 1st! Due to the huge demand for private beta participation, I decided to make a unique TouchXperience build working on all devices (TyTN, TyTN II, Touch Diamond, Pro, HD), and the different ROMs will be released at the time, I will need few more days to accomplish it, so don’t worry if you didn’t get the beta yet.
I wish everybody all the best for this new year, 2009 will be the Year of TouchXperience, the upcoming beta will come with a lot of nice stuffs but that will be a preview of what’s to come during the year! I didn’t tell yet about all the features which will be included in the first version, but I will give you some interesting details in the following days.
I will start immediately by introducing a cool feature that will interest some of you. Many people asked for a Windows Mobile application to display Xbox Live gamertags, so I’ve got the idea to develop a gamertag plugin for TouchMenu (see screenshot).

That xbox app looks cool! I just heard but looking forward/checking out TouchXperience.
I'm considering jumping ship from my HD to iPhone. But in November I remember hearing that manufacturers were going to be receiving copies next month (this month, december).
So I took this to mean that we should probably be getting copies here on xda and over at ppcgeeks at least by feb but I was hoping sooner....I searched but didn't find much.
Anything more specific yet than "first half of 2009" or "q1 09" ??
I'm dying! If I jump to the fruit phone right as 6.5 comes out that would be pretty ridiculous, so I of course want to see what it has to offer first..(haven't really seen a lot of details on it).
If you search long enough you will always find a newer and even so much better mobile phone that freaks you out right after you bought your new device.
I thought the diamond was good - bad reviews. Then I thought the Touch Pro was good (think so) and then I heard about the Xperia X1 (good one) and then there is the Touch HD and the Wimax buddy. And that happened in how many months?
I don't think WinMo 6.5 will be so much of a revolution that the walls of the big apple building will collapse. Go and buy your iPhone, but don't come back crying in a few weeks and tell us about all the apps that don't exist / are not allowed to be sold in app store due to security restrictions.

So please stop posting these RUMORS!!!!!!!!!!!!
And please stop making Windows Phone 7 spoof pictures....
ITS SO ANNOYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Annoying

''HTC HD2 won't support Windows Phone 7''
Your annoying! and so is everybody else who thought the HD2 wouldnt see 7 series. It just prooves how much you lack of knowledge. If you even know a tiny amount about mobile technology you would know its going to be the easiest mobile OS to port
Just because Microsoft/HTC say No it doesnt mean No in my world
i'm with you dude!!!!
Ok Gents,
Firstly quit flaming each other, that annoys me!
Secondly, i would probably say its too early to say officially yes or no, even if they have a stripped our version running on the HD2. Of course it will work as much of the required hardware is present to run it. However M$ are being quite strict with what can and cannot be allowed to run their new "baby".
A wp7 device must be this, must be that and not be this or that........... you get my drift right?
I woudl suggest you guys twitter search #wp7, there is a lot of resource and info out there!
I have also emailed HTC on this and their response was :
"At this point in time HTC Technical Support does has no information about when wp7 will be available, nor what devices it will be available for. With the information M$ has made available, it seems liek a complete revamp of the os. Whilst HTC will be making devices with wm7 it is unknown at this time if any existing deviced will get the upgrade to the new os."
Although he does go on to say "I have seen some prelim statements from M$ that do not completely rule out the HD2" "Basically there is just not enough information out there".
THis is two weeks old.
Read into it as you wish.
Greetz.
Am I missing something or is the Chevron unlock a useless item now? If I have a new WP7 fully updated is there any hope of unlocking it at present? I am too used to Android already so it's going to kill me if this thing can't be hacked and I get put back in the corporate cage.
Please advise on any opportunities.
What phone do you have? If it's an LG, you can use the built in secret MFG app to modify the registry, and enable the developer unlock. (Which is all that Chevron does anyway).
If not... you may be able to downgrade. You can certainly downgrad the LG Optimus 7 by downloading the original ROM and installing using some whacky LG-specific 'modem' software.
I'm not sure what other options you have.

Basically, if you have the latest WP7 updates applied, there is no known method to unlock your device.
Someone will surely figure out how to crack it open again, but right now, there is nothing.
Thanks folks, It's hard as hell going from a Moto Droid that's wide open to this wanna be Apple device. Feels like being put in prison. I'll wait patiently for a fix...well maybe not patiently but wait none-the-less. LOL

Didnt you just claim here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=986628that WP7 is a joke? Really, for someone who claims android is so superior how hard can it be to take the WP7 device you dont like back to the store you got it from and get a device you actually like and NOT troll on the WP7 forums?
What a way to sell another OS.
No help, support or anything. WP7 police in full force.

Someone posting claiming that using WP7 is like being in prison (not to mention creating another thread to bash WP7) doesnt really come across as someone looking for help. Is it really that hard to just move on from an OS you tried and didnt like, is there an unspoken rule that says you have to bash WP7?
Dang, sorry to get you MS fans ruffled. I really didn't mean to honestly. I didn't know that only certain people are entitled to an opinion here.
I got this particular phone because I work in a location where I KNOW for certain gets good reception. I'd have rather had an Android phone but didn't want to chance getting one that didn't have the same reception in that geographical area. Some phones radios are just stronger than others.
It'll do for making calls, texting and checking emails in a pinch. I truly didn't realize that the platform was wrapped up so tightly before I got it. If you've ever had an Android phone you should understand the shock factor after switching.
I still have my Droid and will use it primarily. I'll just keep the WP7 to use like the "may-pop" spare tire on a car until a way to unlock it again comes available.
Edit: And as for my other post that was linked...I am too used to reading in the other forum and not the WP7 section that I kinda forgot where I was. Apologies for that. Some of the issues folks need to know about before purchasing the devices though.
Grow a brain, look into what you are buying next time you purchase anything.
And you didn't get "us MS fanbois ruffled durr", you walked into a forum of people who enjoy a particular device and trash-talked it instead of being mature.

At least I haven't stooped low enough to resort to personal insults. I'm 40 years old, I have kids older than you. Drop it.

You had kids when you were 9?
I'll be honest, I thought you were 15 or so by your posting style.
Took a while but I got this one to side load apps. So it's still able to be unlocked as of now. I did install the Chevron .cert, used LGM to dev unlock, had to change my USB setting to QC Composite I think. Still looking to see what's out and available for it.
Would love a way to bluetooth files over to it. Or Dropbox.
