You try to connect to your zune and search there then click the "free" link on it and it'll hopefully be transferred to your phone for install.

The internet sharing function really saves me a lot of hassle. Been out of cable internet for almost 5 days. Though, I pity my Mozart's battery.

You know, I think the notification pane needs to be overhauled. Switching between apps & checking new messages via whatsapp's number notification isn't efficient at all.

I find myself having a hard time with the toast notification too. It doesn't have a history and when it's gone, it is gone forever.

P/S: Been using since September last year around the Mango update launching.

Even 710 is smooth as butter.

They didn't get educated on Wp7's architecture and that's the problem. Some people just care less. I don't even bother explaining.

Any headset with button for calls and such is fine. But for audiophile like me, I prefer my Shures. tongue.gif

But how bout the volume controls? I'm thinking of getting the HTC flat-cables one, i'll have to look for it in low yat plaza.

Mine cost RM388 and it's made for listening and no hands-free controls.

HTC flat cables? Monster Beats you mean? Good luck finding real ones as it might cost you more than 800 bucks.

The purity ones not audiophile grade? I heard it's quite good, maybe just overpriced like monster phones always are.

Of course. They are Monsters products after all.
Give yourself a favour and go to Jaben if you're in KL. Feast in real audiophile with a price range of >RM100<RM1500
I've bought my Shures & Superlux cans and never gone back.

Cannot. Bluetooth here is only for audio or computer sync.
Do you use Android before? Miss this feature?

So wat u mean by audio? Wat file type it uses?

I mean audio streaming. Cannot transfer files to another phone if that's what you wanted to know.
What do you really want or what is crucial in a phone for you?

Nothing much actually, I mainly use it for web browsing and some gaming.
But usually I get songs either from my sister's phone or com, so this bluetooth thing is quite important actually but I still can live without it. So really can't transfer any type of file?
*
Nope. That's a pretty iffy way to get songs. Since you're so used to bluetooth I don't think WP7 is a good option for you. and yes, there's no transfer of files using blue tooth whatsoever. WP7 is best when coupled with a data plan. Basically smart phone nowadays need one but for WP7, it's practically dead without it.

You'll need Zune. It's basically a music player that syncs to your phone to update your media/phone software and such. Then other things came in, like a computer. You can't transfer files simply by connecting the phone to the PC.

Also, games? Make sure you'll know how to buy. I'm being truthful. WP7 is not a gaming machine. You can play some games but not much and in terms of 3d ones, you'll be disappointed.

One thing you'll be happy. The user experience, the fluidity of swiping, no lags and a nice experience over-all. Can say heaps better than your Ace.
There's a lot to learn. But once you're used to it, it's very addicting.

I'm more of a social guy, so I find WP7 to be rather enjoyable. I'm okay with lacking apps and what not but for aspiring users, especially from Android, it'll be a tough/loving/hateful experience.

I still can get songs from PC right? Through.....Zune? unsure.gif
Regarding the games, simple ones should be enough and better ones will come as time flies right? unsure.gif
For the data, u mean it auto uses a lot of data?? Cuz I only subscribe to 100mb data plan, just enough for me but in WP7...got extra data being used??

QUOTE(aspire2oo6 @ Apr 8 2012, 10:00 AM)
compare to android WP7 uses very minimum data consumption only. I am using Maxis 100MB only on my Nokia Lumia 800 until now still havent finish. Why does it only cosume alittle? It only feeds thumbnails and text compare to android or iOS loading the entire page including unnnecessary data. Then future it only feeds new data and not reload the entire data again.

Just imagine a thumbnail could be like 3KB or a text could be 1KB compare to loading an entire page of 50KB.
*
What he said about data.

Yes. You sync music, videos, and images via Zune. Think of it as an iTunes alternative but for Wp7.
If you hated these syncing programs and rather do via transfers. Just stick with android or BB.
