The Windows Phone 7 thread

my PC device manager didn't show anything under Portable Devices or other devices section. Then, I had tried to manually add the device and then, selected the WP7 as the device. The drivers have been installed, but it's showing the error code 10.

Bing maps for bangalore is good but it doesn't have directions enabled if you keep India as the locale, I advise that you install gmaps and use it for all your map search. Bing maps just sucks at finding POI for India.

directions are not enabled? turn by turn directions that we got with mango don't work in india? what do you mean by keeping the locale india?
 
there is no get direction button in maps if you set system locale to india in Region+language of settings. It has disappeared for me. there was a website which detailed which features of WP7 more of BING, work in which regions

i think your device is not recognized by PC itself, try a different USB cable?

i want to share my BSNL broadband over wifi. tried connectify bu no luck.

Any ideas which debit/credit cards work with the marketplace? My card gets authorized and it deducts 2bucks to check if the card works, but I cannot buy apps because it cant make the payment.

How to add a Credit Card/Debit Card to purchase an app from Marketplace?

I am using an indian account as the billing address of my card is india, linked my card to the live account here: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-in/marketplace

i have bought apps from both phone as well as marketplace website after linking the card with the live account.

hey guys..been using the Lumia 710 for almost a month now..really loving the Windows experience..just the market that is lacking..

25$ app card is a US only promotion, nokia drive is exclusive to nokia devices but it has been hacked and even i am using nokia drive on my samsung focus

But still will advise you to get a nokia Lumia phone as you will get regular updates to the nokia drive software.
 
did you guys update your phone to 8107 build? you don't need to unlock your phone to do that or wait for ZUNE to tell you that an update is waiting.
