Why are you not developing for windows phone 8.1 yet?

I've heard a lot of good things about Microsoft opening up their platforms for developers. I literally used Firefox, Firefox sync, and enjoy Firefox as my default browser. I've seen a few posts saying Mozilla isn't currently developing for Windows Phone and I'm just wondering why. I know there is a demand for it. It would dominate the Windows Phone market for sure. I'd really like to see it come to the platform so can someone explain why specifically it isn't? What restrictions are still being faced if any?

hello, originally there have been technical and legal hurdles in the app store which discouraged mozilla from starting any developments in this direction. i don't know about the current situation, but since mozilla is now focusing its energies on creating firefox os as open source web-based platform, i doubt that you will see firefox on your windows phone device in the foreseeable future...

  • Why skype is not available for windows phone 7.8 e...

    Hi Team,
    Why skype is not available for windows phone 7.8, earlier it was there in wp 7.8 market place... Please bring it back for WP 7.8

    Yet more shoddy treatment of those who bought in to win phone 7. Makes me feel foolish for recommending windows phone to friends and colleagues. "We want everyone to experience the best Skype has to offer" and your way of doing this is to take it away!
    My next phone is unlikely to be a win phone 8, and I'll look at alternatives to skype.

  • Activesync not working for Windows Phone with certificate

    We have a new Exchange Server 2013 setup and using activesync.  We have setup a policy to require simple password and to send an email to provision a device when it connects.  Activesync is setup to use self signed certificates,  this was
    tested first on the Ipad.  Certificate installed entered the settings and the device appeared in the quarantined devices list awaiting to be approved.  This was also done on the Iphone and worked. 
    When putting the same certificate on the windows phone device it errored with there is a problem with {as.domain-name.net} and does not appear in quarantined devices screen.
    I tested again with another Ipad and an android device and they work without an issue.  Tested with a Windows RT device and got the same issue.  If I look in the IIS log files I can see the windows device making a connection then when I presume
    to be the error 500 at the end of the line. 
    This is not a user issue as I can use the same user on the various devices.  The windows devices just do not want to connect.  We have looked at the certificate but if it works for apple and android devices why does it not work for windows? 
    Is there any additional security settings that need to be turned on or off for windows phones?  Is there something specific on the certificate what windows devices need that others ignore?

    I did inital think it might be a widows phone issue but there are no other settings for me to use.  I have also tested using a windows 8 surface and I get the same issue.
    I have raised the event log level on the exchange server to expert and I have seen 2 messages when I try to connect. 
    I get Event ID 1100:  Exhcnage ActiveSync device requests for your uses are being blocked.  This problme frequently occurs when HTTP OPTIONS method is not allowed.
    I know it is allowed as the test exchange connectivity worked and passed that test.
    The other error Event ID 1309 ASP.NET warning.  Part of the exception messge is DeviceTypeMissingOrInvalid
    I have come across a comment that says for certificates to work you need to use windows intune or SCCM which we don't have.  Do we know if this is true?

  • There are a few tv shows that played this week that are not available on itunes from tnt. Why are they not available for download.

    There are a few tv shows that played this week that are not available on itunes from tnt. Why are they not available for download. We watch these each week, and I have checked to be sure that there was actually an episode this week, and there was.

    Under other "sync-able" players, there's usually the "Sync only checked items" radio button. Not for the 2.0 Apple TV. There's no option, but acts as though that option ("sync only, etc...") has been selected. Figured it out after an hour of walking back and forth from my Mac to the TV. Argh.
    Try it. De-select the shows, sync the AppleTV and look under the "TV Shows" and the one's you've unchecked will not be there.

  • WCF Add Service Reference Not Supported for Windows Phone 8.1 XAML Applications

    Windows Phone 8.1 XAML applications does not support the System.ServiceModel namespace, and therefore you are not able to right click references in the project and choose Add Service Reference.   The recommended solution is to add a REST endpoint
    to your WCF endpoint, and access the WCF application through the REST endpoint using HttpClient.
    Bret Bentzinger (MSFT) @awehellyeah

    My opinion on this subject is that someone in management needs to get rid of the "Yes Man" and hire someone with a backbone.
    A project (such as this one) suffered big time because of your excuse of meeting a deadline. Did nobody do feasibility studies to determine the effects of removing the ServiceModel namespace and how it would break migration? It wasn't removed from the other
    project types, so it wasn't a point that it wouldn't fit on the device, so it came down to testing and someone dropped the ball. This is poor management, and deadlines should be extended for critical points within a project. Think about the public relations
    that has already been set backwards by this move. I believe that it meets the critical criteria only because you are talking about targeting the mobile devices which consume external data sources as a key component. Lacking the ServiceModel namespace was a
    monumental error on the teams part.
    This is a perfect case of "we can ship the car", but the wheels will have to wait...they can "Flintstone it" until we get the wheels ready.

  • BB or Carriers why have you not pulled OS 10.3.1.1565 yet?

    sorry but rant allert
    after 4 weeks of missery for thousands upon thousands of BB users around the world i cant believe i am still seeing daily posts of new phone owners joining the forum to ask what is up with their phones.
    does anyone know for sure if BB are actually going to pull OS 10.3.1.1565 or are they just going to let every new customer find out the hard way by turning their new phone on and it auto updating immediately to this corrupt 1565 update.
    auto update should be set to OFF BY DEFAULT but its not it set to ON.
    carrier operators say they are over stressed by the daily calls from angry customers but the 1565 is still readily available for download. should BB not inform every carrier around the world that there has been major issues that have not been rectified in the last month.
    every day my new passport is giving me a popup asking me to upgrade to OS 10.3.1.1565 and there is more chance of hell freezing over first as im sticking with the pre loaded 10.3.0.908 which atually works.
    i am also checking daily on my Q10 which has OS 10.3.1.1565 loaded and there is still no update being pushed out by Vodafone in the UK even though a fix (for some things only) was sent out by BB almost a week ago.
    lastly why has BB not sent out a official response yet?
    im going to get my morning coffee now so rant over
    PS
    on behalf of every member that is affected by these issues with OS 10.3.1.1565 i would personally like to thank the great team on this forum for all their help and support in the last month
    especially @TyW , @John_Clark , @JSanders 

    It depends on the device. If the device came from a wireless service provider, then it will require that carrier to push the update. If the device came from ShopBlackBerry.com then it will get the update without requiring the carrier to push it. You do, sometimes, have to pull the sim card out on ShopBlackberry.com devices in order to get the update.

    2. If your issue has been solved, please resolve it by marking the post "Solution?" which solved it for you!

  • Shutting down FormsCentral? Why are you not marketing FormsCentral in conjunction with Muse? Perfect audience for FormsCentral.

    I just saw the notification that you'll be shutting down FormsCentral. This will be a pain in the *** for me, but I suspect I'll survive.
    I'm just surprised you're shutting it down. In my eye's Adobe never really even marketed the product. I stumbled across it in a round-about way, but I see it as a perfect companion to Muse. I'm amazed that you don't market it to Muse users, and build it into the Muse platform. You could potentially offer it as an in-app purchase. It is such a natural fit for your Muse demographic.

    Hi schultzee ,
    I appreciate the fact that you have been a great user of forms central.However,Adobe is committed to delivering exceptional software and services to our customers. It’s in our nature to innovate and try new things, and it was in this spirit that we introduced FormsCentral over three years ago. Unfortunately, not enough people have chosen this path. As we look to the future, and all the opportunities ahead, we need to focus our efforts on new areas of growth. Our focus will be to continue to provide world-class PDF creation products and cloud-based services that enable our customers to work with PDFs anywhere, on any device.

  • Come on Verizon why are you not sending the Note 4 lolipop update?

    Why you claim to be the best and your IT department can't send the Note 4 why these 3rd world countries are getting with their phone companies? Lets do your job or fine people or wireless company that can live up to what they say.

    Take your time, Verizon. Lollipop ruined my gf's S5 and like my Note 4 since it works just fine on KK...not seeing the benefit by updating either other than cute animations, more colorful theme and a step down with notification pull downs.

  • Why are ringtones not available for all purchased songs?

    does anyone know why you can not make a ringtone from all purchased songs?  e.g., none of the songs I'e downloaded from The Beatles may be made in to ringtones.

    I am having no problems with the HBOGo app on my iPad. Try quitting the app and then restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close the app by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the HBOGo icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't work, try a reset of the iPad. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Why are you not working? I can't figure out why this works in 1 doc, and not in another

    I'm trying to take info from a cell on 1 spreadsheet and have it populate into a different one (pending if checkbox is true or not). I've been able to do it with 2 files but for some reason this one isn't doing what I need. If the checkbox is unchecked the text should stay in the new spreadsheet cell, if it's checked I want the row removed, but for reason instead of removing the row it just places a 0 in the cell.
    This is what I want:
    Like I said it works great on the other doc, just not on this new one. (the 2 docs vary with some of the text, but in the second image I've "checkboxed" out some of the text)
    Please help!
    Thanks!
    Nikki

    You may have the wrong cell reference  (B2) in the second part of your formula. If B2 is empty, the result will be displayed as a 0. Did you mean to have A2 in both parts of the formula?

  • Why are you not able to convert to mp3 anymore

    I have just made a drive playlist to burn onto cd for a very long drive.  Went to convert the songs to MP3, so it fits on one CD, but itunes no longer allows this, why is this?

    Edit > Preferences > General > Import Settings > Set to MP3 & desired bit rate.
    Select songs to convert to MP3, right-click, select Create MP3 version.
    Add songs to a playlist.
    Right-click playlist > Burn Playlist to Disc > MP3 CD.
    Or use the Data CD format and skip the conversion if your player is flexible.
