"Show off your WP7" thread - Windows Phone 7 General

Here's mine

Whats Wi-Fi App is that. Is it Free?

Right, there is no way to make screenshots?
For me too!!
Because of that useless OS on our phones.
Remember the old WM times?
Anything was possible...

Screenshots can happen, with a recently released app. But it requires a Dev.-unlocked system. Give MS time to get that in. Go vote for it here. MS is listening to everything people are wanting. If enough votes happen for a feature, they will likely implement it.
Screenshot app

Wow! That's beautiful. The Omnia looks gorgeous too. You took really nicely composed pictures

this isn't a bash, but the pictures look bad. i know the desktop on that two-phone shot above has some colors, and it likely pretty, but a screenshot would do it so much justice.
there is always a blur, or a low-light focus/shake issue. more screenshots, and by all means petition microsoft if you have to, but GET THE SCREENSHOTS !
here's one just to prove no hatin'

You'll have Radar on T-Mobile and thanks for T-Mobile, it has 4G Radio.

I have a fetish for screens......

Well, here's mine:
nothing special

If you quote reply, please delete images!

Yes I'm still using a HD2 ...well if Microsoft will insist on only limiting us to three buttons ..and yes I should have de-smudged it before snapping it ...and yes my windows do need cleaning hehe.
This was a quick snap on my window ledge but I love the idea of a WP7 photo competition. Microsoft where are our prizes? If it gets interesting I'll re-take it with a cleaner window when there's a more dramatic lightning filled stormy sky and a flock of eagles are flying past (which of course happens a lot).

well here's my phone's screenshots
Yes i used the screen capturer for unlocked devices

They're all special. Yours are no exception. Beautiful.
These also give people an idea of other apps and their tiles. The more we all see, the more familiar we are with what works and such.

What do think? Did Microsoft just give us glimpse into the next version of Windows Mobile? I'm pretty exited over this if you can't already tell.
WOW!
It's on the nike too!
Can't wait to see if they release it for the nike!

I'm here because I believe in helping people get the most from their dash through greater information availability...that and I actually *like* some of the guys on this board.
That having been said, I'm not a fan of Microsoft who, unless there is significant competition from one or more outside sources, will *not* innovate since they know they have consumers by the balls.
I'm all for checking out Android since it's open-source. As it's about the only thing that promises major, widespread, worldwide consumer competition for Microsoft, it will hopefully light a fire under their respective asses to actually improve their stagnant PDA-phone operating system. The supposed WM7 pics and videos might be a start, but they're already way behind.
I've used smartphones since WM2002, and it really hasn't changed fundamentally since then. To use the current political language, Microsoft can only keep putting fresh lipstick on a pig for so long.

That's a dumb question...
I am here because I own a Dash and I LOVE it.
I am here because YOU asked for our opinions.
I am here because this is a GREAT group of people with a lot of knowledge and skill.
However this discussion is about WM7, which the Dash WILL NOT HAVE.
Those Youtube videos don't even show 2 seconds worth of video of the phone, what exactly are we supposed to see?
Thanks for asking, but next time if you want peoples opinions, don't always expect them to agree with yours....
Beartard, you are absolutely right, I have had a PPC since day one, and its pretty much the same today as back then..
Wow, tough crowd. I appreciate the video surfacing again, and it shows some things which we did not appreciate then:
1) Sliding panels is coming to WM Professional.
2) The live mesh integration client is pretty cool.
3) WM7 is going to look cool too.
For the people looking for change over the years, I have been using WM since 2000, and I have seen plenty of change.

Windows Mobile 6.5, coming soon

I think the interesting bit is why a straight 6.1 to 6.5? Especially as we are waiting on 7? or is it the medeocer playing field?
Interesting.....but im getting the feeling that 6.5 will almost be a beta for 7, see what the public think and then make changes in 7 ready for release. But a good link, thanks for that
Oh right on this looks interesting... hopefully we can get this out for the dash once it comes out.
Oh I'm sure once it does come out we will all have it on dash in a month with this forum lol. How much you wanna bet that it will come sooner rather than later? Whether he wants to admit it or not it would be wise to do so because more and more people are going to iphone and now windows has g1 to compete with. Gotta keep the windows users interested!
True, my guess January release very low pro though but I'm sure XDArs will catch it as soon as it goes live.

Potential HTC Sense Leak?

I didn't actually see the Concept video, and it's currently blocked. But the commenters seemed to like it. Did anyone actually get to see it?
Source
Edit: More Sense Information
Damn damn damn, HTC almost
just sold me on WP7! Damn that's nice! The animations are beautiful but a little extreme. They really used the live tiles!
The start screen is still fugly!
I'm sure I can mod the other tiles to match HTCs!
I watched it on my phone browser, try that.
I've seen the video. A bunch of useless stuff with tons of meaningful slow animations.

You'll be able to in WP7. (not "in" the browser but it will play full screen seamlessly).
Looks cool to show off as eye candy but I'd probably end up removing them from the start screen. They just seem like to much useless animation and they don't really go with the WP7 UI.

If I still had WM I would. iPhone offers a much better solution, and I viewed the video from an RSS feed in the video player. Looks like WP7 is going the same route, and I'm happy about it.
About this Sense leak, this would be the horrible reality if MS didn't forbid OEMs meddling with the UI. Luckily, they did and I won't have to tolerate this atrocity.
Its a concept ladies and gentlemen. Don't be so hard on them.

^ damn that's awesome!
I think it takes the same amount of time as any other transition on the OS, just my opinion.
Watched the (very distorted) video on my phone browser. I'm in two minds; cannot say really that I liked it BUT I grew to love HTC ginormous box of tricks. Got used to Sense on my HD2 and the integration of the new Sense with the WP7 tiles appeared not to work. Don't think it's the final version and wouldn't be amazed if it was actually leaked to gauge feedback. Having said that, this is the last shot I'll have at Windows; I know tha WP7 is a brand new OS and has nothing to do with WM. But if Microsoft does not manage to iron out everything that was wrong before and give me an excellent OS (not reasonable, not good, no acceptable) I'll be off to Androidland. Ballmer, it is your very last chance, ever!!! BTW, the Desire HD looks fantastic!
Well, well, well...
I have just seen Sense for WP7 on pocketpt.net ;-D
It is very fast, very responsive and surely will be tinkered even more before Oct 11. At long last, it looks like Microsoft is coming together - with W7, IE9 (Beta, still) and WP7. Let's just hope that the Marketplace looks more like a huge, luxurious shopping centre than a poor street stall.
There's just a ton of absolutely useless animations. Look at the Notes app. Do you really want to view that cartoon each time you need to make a quick note?

I am impressed with htc sense so far. I think if anything htc sense will evolve next year. It's good htc will have snese
I like sense
now if only we can add walpapers on the start screen this would almost be perfect. I am very hopeful

What's the story behind the device? It's the Mozart? How'd you get it? Where's it headed? GSM I assume? When should we see a release?
That is an abomination on WP7 and if I am limited to an HTC devcie on T-Mobile that will be the first thing I remove, just as I did with my HD2. Utter rubbish.
I have to say this looks like a massive disappointment... Sense on my HD2 is very nice - better than stock hands down. On android it seems very nice too, from my limited experience with that. But this...
Completely out of place, over the top. One word: horrible.
Ok, two: unpack - disable

New WP7 ad

AT&T has a new ad for WP7 and i think its the best one so far. it finally shows off what the phone can do. What do you guys think of the ad.
here is the link
YouTube - New Windows Phone Ad: What if?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrhpXQqS3Is
Best wp7 ad I have seen so far...I hope sprint can come up with something like this
It's amazing. This add attracts peoples attention for WP7.
For me, also the best ad i have seen. Here in Germany, the ads of WP7 are not very good (my opinion).
nice marketing ! the graphics pouring into the phones is sharp !
too bad you can't share any of those movies, pictures, or files with a friends phone.

I think you have answered your question. Does he even own a Windows Phone? You have to question someone's motivations, maturity, or mental development. Or all 3.
def. the best ad so far, finally they aren't playing those stupid ones about that idiot skydiving who has a dedicated hw camera button or that dumbass who keeps looking at his phone, looks like MS finally found a decent marketing strategy (or is this ATT's doing?)

Scalado

Another new innovation from Scalado, cannot wait to start using this app....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flNomXIIWr4&feature=player_embedded
I am curious about the quality of the picture.
After removing people would it still be 5mp?
Ooh this looks promising!
I will ask my brother about this, he's actually a developer at Scalado!
*EDIT* He happended to call right after I wrote this, and yes the full resolution will be intact! Scalados' idea is to sell in their applications to companies rather than as separate apps, so hopefully we will see this implemented in phones in the future!
And stay tuned for more info at MWC

Could it be implemented to HTC phones first as in the Ad?
Looks like a fantastic idea. Would definitely get this app even if I hardly take photos. Conceptually it looks sound, but I wonder how far they've actually got with the app as I would assume the video is just a concept they pieced together.

It actually works! Look at the hand-on at engadget: http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/14/scalado-remove-clears-up-your-photos-we-go-hands-on-video/
And I don't know if I would call it an app, really, since it propbably won't come as a stand alone app for download.
