I have a question:
I have setup an Outlook contact for myself and I am unable to link my Facebook profile to that contact. My Facebook profile is somehow link to my Windows Live. Any idea how I can link my Facebook profile to my Outlook contact?  icon_question.gif

your live account is linked with ya facebook account because u choose to link it at live account. u can remove it at ya live account profile.

for outlook contact. u can download something call "outlook connector" and it will link ya outlook contact to your live account.

Well, I guess it won't be long as maxis already tight up with PayPal four some of the online payment thing.

No doubt MS is a bit scare to enter a market which full of frauds card. Just give them a little bit more time. If everything et well I can see it should be available soon enough.

follow the steps below:-

1. download chevronWP7 certificate and chevronWP7 unlocker.

2. attach chevronWP7 certificate to an email and send to you WP7 email account.

3. download the email attachemnt(do not save the certificate). execute the certificate in the email.

4. connect you phone to the desktop/laptop. and turn on Zune.

5. go to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc and search for a file called "host". right click the files and select properties. uncheck "read only"

6. Make sure Zune and your phone are connected then run the chevronWP7 unlocker.

7. check the 2 box and click on Unlock.

try to disbale Zune auto start when phone connected. or else the next time you connected ya phone to that desktop/laptop. it will lock again. so u have to repeat steps 1 - 7 again to unlock.


to sideload, make sure you donwload windows phone 7 SDK first.

Microsoft warns against WP7 unlocking.

"We anticipated that people would attempt to unlock the phones and explore the underlying operating system. We encourage people to use their Windows Phone as supplied by the manufacturer to ensure the best possible user experience. Attempting to unlock a device could void the warranty, disable phone functionality, interrupt access to Windows Phone 7 services or render the phone permanently unusable."

btw, any1 know where to get the car charger for optimus 7

HTC/ Blackberry car charger connector should work for optimus 7

5.After reboot go in to Pocket IE and click the 3 dot in the bottom right and choose settings, Make sure Pocket IE is set to mobile version and NOT the desktop version. You can access it from the settings on Pocket IE.

6.Click on delete history

7.Enjoy youtube on any website on Pocket IE.

Bought the Optimus 7 about 2 months back from Singapore. Boy I love the feel of this phone & the OS. WP7 is so much more refined compared to Froyo.

However....I'm probably the first to encounter & report a major issue with this phone. Barely 3 weeks into it’s ownership, the phone suddenly stopped responding while on standby. The screen would not respond to touch at all. All the hardware buttons could function but not the touch screen. The phone was stuck at the lock screen & I couldn't get into the menu.

Upon rebooting, I was not able to input the sim card pin. Pressing the center windows button brings me to the lock screen again... Holding the Windows button launches the voice recognition software but was unable to recognised voice input. The voice instruction from the phone was also intermittent / sounded choppy.

So had no choice but to send the phone to the service center in SG hopping they could find some way of resetting the phone & bringing it back to life. Well my greatest fear came true. It's coming to 3 weeks now & the phone is still under service. Apparently, the SC is waiting for a new motherboard to arrive & the Christmas holiday is causing the delay. I could not get a definitive answer from the SC as to the cause of the failure.

Imaging the embarrassment during Chirstmas when friends asked about my WP7 phone & I couldn’t help but to agree not to buy another LG phone. Perhaps it’s my bad luck but having failed IC/chips on the Mobo this new speaks very much on the quality of components used.

Sorry to heard that bro. That's a bad experience with LG.

But again, on wat u have described. Most likely ya digitizer gone. In another words its the touch censor screen gone and not the board. If u can get a brand new one for me. I can change it for u in less than 2 hrs.

hey all, wanna ask couple of questions here (some maybe off topic, sorry)
1. if i want to sync my fb n yahoo acc in wp7, do i need to hv a live acc? i dont hv a live acc as i only use yahoo. my email only for my study.
yes you can.

2. now im a digi prepaid user, want to change to postpaid, so wanna know is it sufficient that i only take the rm33 lite internet plan as i only want my fb, email n to download some apps. i want my fb n email to run 24/7. recommendation needed pls.
data lite plan RM33 is 300MB quota. its really for very light surfing with your mobile data. a normal user like my friend she need around 1-2GB for fb.but again it all up to u. but again refer to question 1. if you need to download apps from marketplace. live account is required

3. if i want to put tunes in the wp7, do i need to hv zune to do it? my tunes mostly was downloaded free of charge. can it be transferred to the phone or must it first be transferred to zune then only to the phone. if it must be transferred to the zune, does this mean that all the tunes must paid ones only? can zune accept non paid tunes that i hv?
your "free tunes" can transfer using zune. its so simple u just need to select those tunes you want and drag it to your phone. but again, tune for ringtone have to use other method and it's only support WMA format.

4. does videos also the same with the above?
yes

really need ur advice as im really interested to get the HTC Trophy. biggrin.gif

p/s sorry for the noob questions as im a blackberry user for the moment and planning to change to wp7 in near future. for the internet recommendation also im sorry, i need to know the amount needed as im still studying, thus, dont hv money. smile.gif

how does it work? just being curious here. smile.gif

another thing, does the wp7 hv ym?

currently ringtone can only use preset. so by doing the other way might break you phone and warranty void. do it at your own risk.

there's no free app for ym yet. but fb and msn yes.

thanks bro. i had just done reading all the reviews for mozart and trophy. why some are complaining that the memory is insufficient and that the camera is lousy? plus that, there r also complaining that there was no file transfer over bluetooth. mind explaining all these. sorry, but i really wanna know about wp7 phone n so far, im only interested with the trophy n mozart. so if im really buying either one, i need to know all the details. pros and cons. tq. biggrin.gif
*
well, i owned a HD7 so i cant speak for mozart and trophy owner. as for the camera part in HD7. i bought thumba photo editor from marketplace and it did helps me enhanced the photo quality of HD7. so i guess it's only mobile phone camera quality. if you need it better. extra software needed.

HD7 memory is sufficient and i guess same with mozart or trophy to anything.

bluetooth file transfer is not available yet. by the way. if you have email on ya phone. files transfer to email is another alternative.

That's not a bug. It happens to me when I just wash my hand and never dry up properly. Then touch and slide up it just sticker there the slider.

U don't need to press power button. Just dry ya hand or rub it with something so it generating some heat.

And also any stylus or non warm skin object touched can not make the touch screen work.

i just bought hd 7 before this i use hd2

Questing is...Will I be able to use the Microsoft My Phone app to import contacts and such to the HD7?

i try but fail,,, so how can i copy my contact numbr to my new phone, ????????
*
u need a new live acc. outlook connector. I been working in my contacts for pass few weeks try to house keep it as neat as I can. finally after 3 times of reset I manage to work thing out.

I might be a pain for the first time. but once u done it, u will love it.

active sync ya contacts to outlook.
do some housekeep on all ya contact in outlook.
download outlook connector and login ya newly created live acc.
sync ya contact from outlook to new live acc.
create the newly create live account in phone.
sync ya phone with the newly create live acc and remove email sync.
add any primary email acc to ya phone and syn only emails.
add Facebook account and syn.
go to ppl setting and leave only display contact for ya newly create live acc.

by doing the above. u separated Facebook or any other social network contact with ya contact. left only ya phone contacts at people tab but still able to check all ya social network contact status.


so now ya contact will be only for contacts for phones. and u still enjoy getting latest updatefor everyone from ya social network.
