I never realized this but you can actually click on the "browse" button on web pages and it takes you to the picture hub to attach photos. You can't do this on iOS devices which is stupid.
With GPU accelerated IE9, WP7 will soon have the best mobile browser available!
one thing that i dont like about iphone browser is when you got to other tab, then after few minutes when you go back, the page will load again.
Sorry, what "browse" button are you talking about?
You know when you want to upload something on a website. That button.
Indeed, I didn't even try that assuming that iy wouldn't work. It does, however.
I do love these little gems that people are uncovering and sharing. There is so much to WP7!

Yeah, the WP7 browser is sweet. I have all 3 popular systems, iOS4, WP7 and Android, and IE is the nicest of them. However, I would like to see web pages adjust to frame size like the Android browser does... zooming in or out, the content adjusts to maintain full view rather than needing to scroll side to side to read it in portrait mode.
Huh?

No, its not part of the OS itself. Its the website button, on whatever website you are on to upload a picture.
Someone please elaborate better for me

but wen u wack wit crack..... lol
Lets say your on lets say PhotoBucket or flickr something and you choose hey why not upload a picture and on your computer you click upload and "BROWSE" and you find the picture of last night and upload...
Well hes talking about that browse feature where you can locate the picture or watevr via a file manager or an app
can one of u guys with windows phone 7 go to depositfiles.com and see if it lets u upload a mp3 to that site since you guys say the browse button works with pictures but does it work with other file types on the phone like mp3s?
For example go to photofunia.com proceed to make a custom pic and you'll see what the man means (I really gotta change this Android avatar lol)

I highlighted the "Browse" button there. When you want to upload an image, you need to pick it on your device. iOS doesn't let you do that.

There's no way you'll be able to upload mp3s anywhere from WP7.
At this time it only lets you upload images. Maybe this will be extended to other OS "libraries" such as Office documents, but I can bet money it won't let you upload music without some hacking.

I'd rather they improve what they're doing now, resizing text to fit their frames, so you can read posts at a smaller zoom level.
After using android for a while I hated the reformatting it does, you end up having text breaking the flow of the website or a news post with an image that is so big it spans past your screen size just because the text reformatted to fit and it zoomed in way too much.
I find the iOS and WP7 browsers to be pretty smart in detecting what part of the website you want to read and resizing that text so you don't have to pinch or even double tap sometimes in order to read.

why is it that it will let u upload and download pictures from the browser? why wont it let u download a mp3 or a zip or rar file thru the browser? ive used a phone in the store and tried to download a mp3 it played the mp3 when i hit save to download it and it wouldnt add it to my library there has to be some where that its temporarily stored on the phone i wonder if theres a way to get it and save it to the library without using the computer
I think that's because 99.999% of all cases where users would upload mp3s to web sites would be for illegal sharing.
That's just my guess, though, and please don't argue with me about it.

Does anybody know how you can add more frames to Camera on the HTC S620. Ive just come back from holiday and when I was using the Camera for a few "fun pix" I was greatly dissapointed in the lack of choice... basicaly it only had four week frames to choose from. So as soon as I got back I went about getting some more frames for my phone.... which I found, but my phone cant find them. Ive already tried adding a "Frames" folder to "My Documents" both on my phone and the storage card but yet the phone doesnt recognise any of the frames. Anybody else have this problem or even better can anyone else give me instruction on how to get it to work?
if anybody wants to know the Camera Software im using is the Camera for Smartphones version 4.52 that came pre installed with the phone as I dont want to be having more than one installed.
Just out of curiosity, what's a fun frame?
I knew the camera software on the Dash could do "effects" like sepia or negative. Never heard of the above.
I am in the same boat, what exactly is a "fun" frame just wondering?
oh, I assumed all the HTC S620's had all the same basic software I wasnt aware that Frames wernt available on all models.
What I mean by fun frames is like Magazine Covers which you select and take a picture with the frame on top of it.
The four that come with the BT ToGo version which I have is one which has two magazine covers on (you take two pictures and they get put into the frame), a cartoony spikey frame, one which looks like a notice board with two pictures on and finally a folding frame that holds three pictures...
the problem is that they are too specific like the memo on the notice board say "I love you" on one and "happy birthday" on the other... and the three way folding frame has love hearts on so it isnt like you can use them on any occasion.
...Picture Themes, thats what they are!!! Mabey I would have got more response if I posted under that.
Yea this is a ROM specific function. I remember having this on my T-Mobile SDA. You could have images pre drawn on the screen with a spot in the middle of the screen so yo could take a picture and use the template around the picture. For example: i had one that was a template of bubbles, snorkle and face mask, and if you got the picture aligned properly you could make it look liit the person you wrre taking a pic of was wearing the snorkel and mask and look like they were underwater. Kinda cool effect. I never noticed this feature on the DASH though.
edit: i just found the templates on WM 6.1 , but the four that are preloaded are pretty lame.
Aaaaahhhhh, never mind Ive found out how you do it...
the trouble was BT never provided me with a manual with the phone, its all done online in PDF format now. But after trawling through the PDF I eventually found out how to add extra frames -
Template Folder (Picture Theme only). By default, templates are
stored in the \My Documents\Templates folder on the device’s Main
Memory. If you transferred some templates to a storage card (via File
Explorer), set this option to Main + Card to specify that templates are
located in both the main memory and the storage card.

so thats where I was going wrong, I had read somewhere that the folder had to be called Frames... when that didnt work I renamed it Template when all along it should have been Templates.
Thanks anyway.

Templates
Here you go.
Uh, I know it's not rocket science, but my upload keeps failing, I was trying to upload a few templates that I have for the DASH, Excalibur, etc.
Yeah I have found one or two good ones, I will try and post them sometime today
A couple of Wako Jacko's from BoSelecta (one just does the face while the other takes the face and background)
a Shrek and Fiona and a Wanted poster for now...
I think the frames from Sony Ericson phones should work (320x240) so im going to see if I can find them on my girlfriends phone and copy them onto my excalibur. The Sony Erricsons have some great fun frames and to be honest a really good camera built into their phones.
Does the frame need a special neme or extension?.
In Which folder need to be placed?
PS: Sorry my bad English

Thanks amigo!
This is a great forum, thank you every body!
Hey guys,
I'm searching for some Applications and Gamez to present the features of my HD.
Friends often ask me what I like so much on my HD and why I did't buy an iPhone. I don't know what to answer then... Always showing the Game Teeter is so boring! I testet the iPhone for about a week and wasn't as thrilled as I'm now with my HD.
Searching in the XDA Forum wasn't very successful to me
Greez and thank you for helping me...
a good start would be to take pictures of ur phone, so u can show a little but of the functions and themes.
A nice program is 'Pocketscreen' which can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328627
Thank you for your post!
I rather thought about the case when they are standing next to me and want to see what my HD is able to do... Something spectacular, you know...
Maybe we can compile a catalog of such "viewy applications"!
oh, lol, sorry then, i missunderstood ya
mhhh, so i think u r searching for advantages of the touch hd, aren't u?
well...if u wanna impress ur friends u just have to show them windows mobile...
what's so special about it? try to get tomtom or other apps working on iPhone...
Take a look at this.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Software
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Software_1
too bad games are running slow as hell on the touch hd.........sigh.........
So you are looking for some "mine is bigger than yours" application just to show off?
Sorry, couldn´t resist.....
Just go to opera, copy a random link, open an email, page the link in a message and tell them to try that on their iphone
Coreplayer 1.3.0 and put on any dvd rip movies and make them jealous with envy, as movies are gorgeous on the high resolution screen
If you have highspeed internet on your hd, just show them a youtube vid, again just show them how inadequate the iphone is as a mediaplayer.
MP3-trimmer, cut a song on the fly, save it as a ringtone and then tell them to call you, watch them squirm
I got bejeweled2 on mine, another addictive game.
Virtual pool looks pretty slick.
When they tell you there is this great program which can identify music, just say its shazam and also avaible for winmo, If they don't know then whip it out tell the hd to identify a popular song on the radio or something from another mp3 player.
I also just bought an Touch HD, i used to have the normal Touch for 8 months, was thinking of buying the iphone too, instead after MANY reviews i stayed with HTC and bought me the touch HD.
Things you can show him is the resolution, open opera with a fullsize forum and show how much text you get on your screen.
Multitasking is what an iphone can't do.
Stuff i like on my windows mobile device: MSN, fring/skype (free calling over wifi) i love VNCview for PPC so i can see my desktop PC on my HD, also love the game UNO, also LOVE Funambol ! so i can sync my calendar/notes/contacts,... all to one server and that way to my PC all bidirectional... Funambol is also availeble on iphone but only for syncing contacts because apple wants to make 99 dollar a year on their syncing service... and most of all, i love that i can keep finding settings to adjust my windows mobile device just the way i want it...
what i don't know if this is all possible with a jailbroken iphone... if it is then there isn't any big difference i guess
good luck with the showing off haha

Thank you all for your suggestions... maybe got some more!?!
!edit: where can i get coreplayer 1.3 from? u know what i mean!?! plz pm
I wouldn't bother with CorePlayer; full-res video doesn't work well enough yet.
Look at the stickied video-encoder thread and create a file for free that plays full-res full-framerate in WMPlayer on the HD. Bear in mind that most people won't understand the difference between this and what the iPhone plays though.
Then read a book at them. I had an iPod Touch and never found any way to read books that wasn't woefully inadequate.
Web pages in landscape, clicking in links without zooming in etc is a great demo.
The Hologram app is pretty cool; do a search around here and you'll find it.
But to be honest all an iPhone owner has to do is show someone Super Monkey Ball, Aqua Forest, Enigmo etc and you've lost. No amount of "But you can't copy-and-paste" is going to bring you back from that one.
just record a video when going in the freeway at 120km/h then show them.
lets see the iphone do that with that quality
Cool! Thank you for all your Replys!
I think this stuff will hunt 'em down...
1. Use Hush SMS and send Ring 0 SMS to an iPhone.
2. Show some real GPS navigation software.
3. Compare list of supported bluetooth profiles on your HD with iPhone.
Use GRemote to control your pc - see here
how about installing ORB on your home pc and you can stream every music and video file to your ppc through wifi, music is even possible over edge.
that way you can have unlimited portable media.
i use it and it works great !

I am interested in knowing this as well.
I think that music cannot be downloaded via the browser as I don't think users are allowed to access the file system.

Just streams the file. Cannot see an option to save it.
I do hope we're able to download stuff to our phones. It would be silly to not have that as an option.

I think leaving Flash would be a good idea and go the same that Apples going as I think flash is messy and buggy.
HTML5 will be the way forward, however if users NEED flash then hopefully they will make it optional.

I've never heard of anything like that. Maybe Microsoft put some wierd implementation of XML (like they do with everything) that has some different syntax involving the file transfer or something (honestly i don't know what i'm talking about here cuz i can't really explain what i mean). They just do things like that so i'll see if i can find anything out about these errors.

These are some good finds. They could be useful for my silverlight ui idea if i find a use for the ip address (like maybe if i found some way to send the silverlight stuff to the phone by targeting the ip address).

Thanks. Im not going to try going in using a virus becuase I use mine. So yeah.
I stumbled upon a feature in the Chrome browser that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere. I noticed that if there are multiple small links in a small area, if your finger may be hitting more than one link at the same time, it will give you a zoom bubble that will let you select the link easier. I have attached picture of it so you can see what I mean.
Also here's my mini review of the Chrome browser.
http://thesmartphonechamp.com/hands-on-demo-and-mini-review-of-new-chrome-browser-for-android-video/
From what I picked up on the forum Opera seems to have this as well.
But yeah I haven't seen this mentioned on many blogs/news sites.
I saw that when I was browsing this forum yesterday when I was selecting a page number. Pretty cool

Yeah that's how I came across it, through forum browsing. I like that feature a lot as it means now I don't have to zoom in to hit small links that are in between other links. Great move on the part of Google.
Google have actually documented that on their release post:
http://chrome.blogspot.com/2012/02/introducing-chrome-for-android.html
One of the biggest pains of mobile browsing is selecting the correct link out of several on a small-screen device. Link Preview does away with hunting and pecking for links on a web page by automatically zooming in on links to make selecting the precise one easier.

Opera would automatically zoom in when you hit an area with > 1 small links. It was quite convenient. But of course I've not found any browser other than stock suitable enough until now, convenient or not. It may be some form of unconscious Google bias but I'm with that.

I'm in a similar boat as you. Most of the time I've actually liked using Dolphin, yet for some reason every time I always wound up going back to the stock browser. It didn't matter what device I was using, I always wound up going back to the stock browser for whatever reason.
