Questions about Lumia Line and Windows Phone 8

hey , i am using Nokia 701, a Symbian smarphone i love very much, but would like to know more about the WP OS and how it fares against it. If u have answers for the questions below or even better - if u own a Lumia 720, which i find interesting, please give ur opinions.
1. There are many GPS Apps in Android which still havent been ported to WP8. Nokia 701 has , in its native browser, GPS functionality, so when i enter GPS enabled websites, I can share my location to them on my Nokia 701, and also using the Opera Mobile browser.
Does the Lumia 720 have GPS enabled BROWSERS ?
2. Second question - the thing i LOVE about symbian is that Whatsapp is always connected and so - messages are immadietly delivered, faster than android even, i believe.
If u keep internet connection ON with the WP device and a friend sitting next to you will message you over WhatsApp, how fast will it reach,
when the app is closed and when the app is in the background?
And is there any difference between having the screen locked or unlocked ?
I hate it when there's a delay in recieving messages. It happens with android and some iPhones.
3. The Lumia 720 has 512 mb of RAM. Does it limit downloading of apps, meaning you simply cant download them because they cant work on the device?
And do you feel LAGS with apps who should work with your 720?
I'd love hearing all of your thoughts. This will help not only me but other users who read this in time to come and maybe even Nokia when they perform R & D .

Phone also monitors your movements, usage, and sends to the owner -Microsoft. You don't own the phone or controls to privacy, Microsoft claims to do that for you. It also uploads your device contacts somewhere once you open an account in order to use the phone and the WP8.1 OS. THINK TWICE
lol.. Try again, every app which wants to access location or other data needs to get permission from you to do so. Also you have the choice to allow the phone to send information to Microsoft during the first set up of the phone..

Questions about Customer Service and Prepaid Phones

Yes, I have had Straight Talk for over two years. The phone service its self was wonderful. I only came across three places within a 50 mile radios of not being able to get reception. After asking around I found out that Straight Talks service is through Verizon. Everyone I talk to says the Verizon Tower reception was the best. I have been waiting a total of 22 days for Straight Talk to send my replacement for my broken phone. I have had it and I am going to sell the phone on Ebay when I receive it. My service with Straight Talk ends in four days and I am really considering Verizon.. Wanting to do this over the weekend. I know if I purchase a phone from Verizon directly it will be shipped overnight.
The main thing I want to know is if Verizon has a Customer Call Center in the United States? Where I can speak to someone that speaks "Fluent" English and actually cares if I get good service or not.
I am older and I like basics with no change. So, these are the features I want on my new phone.
A phone with a 3 megapix are larger camera with video.
A phone with a touchscreen and a query keyboard.
I want a speak to text feature. The last phone had it but I have been told that a app can be put on a phone to do it if it doesn't have it..
I haven't never had any apps downloaded on my phone but still want options for some.
A phone that has GPS.
These are the main features I have got to have. Nothing else matters. Can anybody help a elderly old man find a basic phone with these features?
I would greatly appreciate any input from Verizon Users about Verizon's Customer Service Department and any suggestions for a good phone under $50. Of course I am not looking for necessarily a new phone with a lot of extras. Thanks and have a "Wonderful and Blessed Day". Chris

The docs haven't been moved over to the 8.1 docsite, but the 7.0 docs
for campaigns are still pretty much valid in 8.1. Look at:
http://e-docs.bea.com/wlp/docs70/dev/cmpaign.htm#998197
for more information.
Basic answers:
1. You can't from a campaign. It will always batch emails in the database.
2. Use the bea/weblogic81/portal/bin/mainmanager.bat|sh script, which
uses the com.bea.p13n.mail.MailManager command-line java class (JavaDoc
at http://e-docs.bea.com/wlp/docs81/javadoc/index.html). This can be
invoked from cron or at for regular email delivery. Also, the emails are
deposited in the MAIL_* tables
(http://e-docs.bea.com/wlp/docs81/db/4Schemas.html#1064602), so you
could implement a delivery system from that as well.
3. There are no parameters since the email delivery is invoked from a
command-line process.

Question about video driver and window manager

Dear All:
I have been using Arch for a couple of months now and I am absolutely amazed by how top of the line this system is.
Congratulations and thank you to all the developers!
A couple of questions for anybody interested in these topics:
1) Do people usually use open-source video drivers, or proprietary? What are the advantages/disadvantages of either solution, in terms of stability and performance? (I have an ATI Radeon Mobility graphics card on an IBM T43 laptop). Also, I use dual-head with an external NEC lcd display using MergedFramebuffer, but I notice that the external monitor is not set completely well. Looking closely at the black background standard in Openpox, for example, I notice a constant flickering of the pixels. Can it be because I am not using the proprietary ATI driver?
2) What is, in your opinion, the fastest and most reliable window manager? I wonder whether somebody has run objective comparisons.
I fell in love with wmii recently, but managed to crash it twice when I tried to run kmail (perhaps because this application is not wm-independent?).
Also, applications seem to respond the fastest in fvwm on my system!? Isn't wmii supposed to be the fastest, being the lightest?
Thank you for your help!

A Few Questions About Parallels 5 and Windows 7

Hey guys!
So, I am taking a computer programming class that requires Windows, just so we can all be on the same screen at the same time (lame, I know). Anywho, I have a Mac, so my teacher provided me with a log-in to MSDNAA, to get Windows 7 for free, and he gave me Parallels 5.0 for free as well. (go community colleges!)
A few questions:
1- I am running Snow Leopard right now on my 2009 MacBook Pro, and my processor is the 64-bit processor, but after running the command uname -a I discovered that my Kernal is loading in the 32-bit mode. Is this normal? Shouldn't it be running in 64-bit mode?
2- Which Windows 7 should I get, the x64 or x86 (32-bit or 64-bit)?
Thanks for any/all help!

Question about Photoshop 7 and Windows 7

The harddrive on my old computer crashed. I had Photoshop 7 on this computer. I recently purchased a new laptop(windows 7 64 bit). Is it possible to install Photoshop 7 on my laptop? Also, can more than one version of Photoshop (i.e. Photoshop 7 and Photoshop CS5) reside on the same harddrive?
Thanks
Cari

Also, can more than one version of Photoshop (i.e. Photoshop 7 and Photoshop CS5) reside on the same harddrive?
Yes, they can. All installs are independent. As to whether PS7 will install and run on W7 I cannot tell from personal experience, but from reading other people's threads it seems to work for some, but not for others. In any case, nothing is lost by trying...

Eprint - Problem with ePrint Mobile and Windows Phone

Good morning,
I purchased a printer Officejet Pro 8600 and I have the following problem:
When we try to print from mobile Nokia Lumia 920 with Windows Phone 8, works fine if I print via attached text files (. DOC,. Txt) or. PDF or text in the message body. But when attachment is, image files (. JPG) does not work and,at the history ePrintCenter, shows an DISCARDED or ERROR message (attached copy of the screen). The same image files, sending mail from a PC, print correctly.
I need help. Thank you.

Hi kbdseattle,
Thank you for being an active member of the HP Support community.
The only way to ePrint from a Windows-based mobile phone is to email the printer. You can find the printer's email address by pressing the 'ePrint' icon on the front panel of your printer. When you press this icon it should display the printer's email address. If it's not and asking you to accept the terms of service you haven't activated the web services and set up the ePrint functionality of the printer.
Regards,
Happytohelp01

Hyper-V on Windows 2008R2 Running Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone

I am a lone wolf developer running Hyper-V on a legally-licensed Server running Windows Enterprise 2008R2. I have extremely limited research funding.
Since I need to evaluate Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone development for the 1080p Phone Emulator, I created a Virtual Machine of Windows 8.1 Evaluation Copy RTM on my server. I am trying to create software for the Nokia Lumia 1520 Phone-Tablet.
Everything in the Windows 8.1 Virtual Machine runs perfectly from Hyper-V on Windows 2008R2, except for one problem related to my Phone development project. Networking is perfect, the display is perfect, there are no other issues except this "gotcha".
The problem appears with the Windows Phone SDK Update 4, which supports a 1080p
Windows Phone Emulator. This emulator is supposed to load it's own instance of a Windows 8.1 Hyper-V virtual machine
when debugging the Phone Application from Visual Studio 2012 Express.
This Emulator tries to start it's own Hyper-V session inside Windows 8.1. In my humble opinion, it should be possible to do this (load a Windows 8.1 HyperV Virtual Machine inside a "parent" Virtual Machine).
It presents this error message instead:
Essentially, Windows 8.1, running in a Virtual Machine, should also be able to create a Virtual Machine inside it's own Virtual Machine. That is the required design of the Phone Emulator (must be able to intantiate a Windows 8.1 Hyper-V Virtual machine to display
the Phone).
If that does not work, then I guess it must not be a supported configuration. If not, then I need to licence Windows 8.1 on a separate physical computer. Anyone want to tackle this?
+__+

I have a legal, licensed Windows 2008 R2 Server with the Hyper-V Role. I then downloaded the time-limited
Windows 8.1 RTM Evaluation Version and successfully installed. It works flawlessly. Next, I installed the
Windows Phone SDK Update 4 on top of
Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows Phone.
It all works flawlessly, except for one little problem.
Since I am interested in evaluating and testing the Windows Phone SDK 1080p Emulator, I must run
F5 - Start Debugging in Visual Studio in order to see my Windows Phone application in 1080p resolution. Well, the Emulator
almost completely starts up successfully, but at the last push it gives an error. This error is shown below as a JPEG.
Does anyone know which of the "Hyper-V components is not running?"

Solution: iPad/iPhone Login issues with IIS as Reverse Proxy (Android and Windows Phone works)

Hi,
I had issues with iPad/iPhone access from external and tried a lot. Now I found my solution I like to share.
I setup a IIS on Windows Server 2012 with ARR 2.5 and Android and Windows Phone could login but not iPad and iPhone.
The IIS Log on the reverse proxy showed:
2013-02-26 12:03:31 <IP> POST /webticket/webticketservice.svc X-ARR-CACHE-HIT=0&X-ARR-LOG-ID=1996c8d7-09d0-4310-8da4-a8dfb7940e28 443 - <ClientIP> Lync%202010/1.6+CFNetwork/609+Darwin/13.0.0 - 401 0 0 124

First Request gets a 401 while anonymous. Second try would be with authentication but it never reached the internal front end server.
After I installed a fix for ARR

Hi,
This resolved our problem too!! So happy after 2 weeks of messing around with just about every setting recommended from all types of forums and rebuilding our reverse proxy I was at a loose end.
Our environment is Lync 2013 Enterprise, Lync 2013 Edge, IIS as Reverse Proxy on Server 2012 using ARR 2.5
We had Android and Windows clients working but no iOS devices at all. In the iOS log we were seeing
<h1>Server Error</h1></div><div id="content"> <div class="content-container"><fieldset> <h2>502 - Web server received an invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server.</h2> <h3>There is a problem with the page you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed. When the Web server (while acting as a gateway or proxy) contacted the upstream content server, it received an invalid response from the content server.</h3> </fieldset></div></div></body></html>
When the client was trying to retrieve from the webticketservice.svc

Installed the HotFix from here:-
Hotfix for Microsoft Application Request Routing Version 2.5 for IIS7 (KB 2732764) (x64)
Rebooted the Reverse Proxy and iOS clients worked straight away for both Lync 2010 and Lync 2013 on both iPhone 5 and iPad both.
I hope this helps others as I was losing the plot :-)

ActiveSync autodiscover not working for iPhone but for Android and Windows Phone

Hi
We have setup an Exchange 2013 hosted environment, where different mail domains are running on it.
The main domain is mydomain.com. One of the client domains is customer.com.
Autodiscover for customer.com has a cname which points to autodiscover.mydomain.com, on our firewall this url is redirected to autodiscover-s.mydomain.com, where our public certificate for mydomain.com is applied. Autodiscover for all
our customers finally ends at autodiscover-s.mydomain.com.
Outlook WebApp, Outlook Anywhere and ActiveSync for all customers is reachable through mail.mydomain.com.
Everything works fine, except of autodiscover for iPhones. I always have to enter the server name mail.mydomain.com manually. After that ActiveSync works on iPhones as well.
The Problem doesn’t exist on Androids and Windows Phones.
Any suggestion?
Regards
Peter

Yes, Interestingly same configuration is working in my home lab, but not working at customer. The version is 10.5

If apple app store has an app to sync windows phone with itunes called windows connector, and windows phone and apple are competitors, why doesnt apple make an app for android that syncs itunes without a third party software

I want to simply sync my android and my mac itunes without downloading any software. Windows phone has an app to do that even though apple and windows phone are competitors. Why does android not make an app or why doesnt apple create an software or something

Apple didn't create the Windows Phone app (Microsoft). Apple has nothing to do with this, and Google should do an app for this

Unable to detect NFC tag (ISO15693) in Lumia 830 on windows Phone 8.1

Microsoft in Windows phone 8.1 has added new Nfc related features including low level access(Non NDEF). I have Nokia Lumia 830 (PN547 NFC chipset is present in this device).Im not able to detect Nfc tag (ANT-7M24LR-A ,ISO15693) through Lumia 830, which
im able to read/write using Nfc-V(ISO15693) in Android. I also have a Lumia 720 (old NFC hardware) but atleast it is able to detect the tag. Has anyone encountered this ? Whats the workaround ?

Hi Franklin,
Thank you for the quick reply.
Current OS version on the Lumia 830 is : Windows Phone 8.1 Update (8.10.14157.200)
I have taken reference of the NFC Smart Card Reader project(nfcsmartcardreader codeplex) to read/ write to the tag. We are trying to read/write to the tag (ISO 15693) using the low level APIs (Non NDEF format).
But my problem is that even before we can send/receive the data from the tag, the phone is not detecting the tag itself. If i try to debug the card added event doesnot fire in any case for (ANT-7 M24-LR-A) tag.
I also have a Lumia 720 (old NFC hardware) but it is atleast able to detect the above mentioned tag.
Lumia 830 is able to detect other tags like a generic NFC sticker (Mifare Ultralight) .
Hi theDarkPriest,
>>I have taken reference of the NFC Smart Card Reader project(nfcsmartcardreader codeplex) to read/ write to the tag
Well, have you tied to read NFC Tag using Proximity API? If not, please refer to this article:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsappdev/archive/2013/04/18/develop-a-cutting-edge-app-with-nfc.aspx
If the Proximity API can detect NFC Tag correctly, I think this issue should caused by this third-party library, you need to ask for help in its official site:

Question About Color's and Gradients

Hi all,
I have a question about color swatches and gradients.
I am curious to know, if I have 2 color swatches that I make into a gradient color, is it posible to change the tint of each indivdual color in that gradient and have that applied to the gradient without having to adjust the gradients opacity.
The reason that I'm asking this is because in creating a project I found that the colors that I chose for to make my gradient from my swatches were to dark, and while I can adjust each one's tint to my liking (if the object they were applied to was going to be a solid color) but that doesn't seem to apply to the overall gradient.
I hope that makes sense, I know that this was something that was able to be accomplished in quark and was wondering if I can do something similar.

If you double click your gradient swatch (after adding it to the swatches)
Then click a colour stop in the gradient, and then change the drop down menu to CMYK (or rgb)
And you can alter the percentages there. It's not much use for spot colours but it's a start.
But making tint swatches would be a good start anyway.
At least then when you double click the gradient (in the swatches) to edit it you can choose from CMYK, RGB, LAB, or Swatches and adjust each colour stop to your liking.

Question about clear page and reset pagination

Hi,
I have a question about clear pages and the reset pagination in an URL. What is the reason why a clear page doesn't also trigger a reset pagination on the pages which are cleared?
I can't really imagine a business case where it makes sense to clear all data of page items on a page and don't reset the pagination of reports on that page which probably use a page item in there where clause...
The drawback of this behavior is that a developer always has to set the reset pagination checkbox when he clears the target page and the even bigger drawback is that if you specify other pages to clear, you can't reset pagination for them, because reset pagination only works for the target page.
Thanks for your input.

The question about portlet customization and synchronization

I have a question about portlet customization and synchronization.
When I call
NameValuePersonalizationObject data = (NameValuePersonalizationObject) PortletRendererUtil.getEditData(portletRenderRequest);
portletRenderRequest.setPortletTitle(str);
portletRenderRequest.putString(aKey, aValue);
PortletRendererUtil.submitEditData(portletRenderRequest, data);
Should I make any synchronization myself (use "synchronized" blocks or something else) or this procedure is made thread-safe on the level of the Portal API?

HI Dimitry,
I dont think you have to synchronize the block. i guess the code is synchronized internally.
regards,
Harsha
