Yesterday Gartner released its latest mobile smartphone sales predications, with the figures showing a dramatic turnaround in their predictions for the Microsoft Windows Phone 7 platform. The latest predictions are charted below (I find this much easier to visualise this data in a chart versus the tabular form which Gartner publish!): We can see from the chart above that Gartner predicts that Android will increase the lead that it has so rapidly acquired, BlackBerry’s RIM and Apple’s iOS will see mode...

Getting Windows Phone 7 Updates without Flashing ROM

published 776 days, 23 hours, 3 minutes ago posted by

http://tanzim.myopenid.com/ 779 days, 17 hours, 9 minutes ago

Inspired by Chris's blog post, I have updated my Samsung Omnia 7 to March 2011 update. I intend to describe it in detail how I have done it, because there’s another way you can do it by flashing your phone ROM, which ideally means that it will change your BIOS program, inject the update and disable your phone to receive future updates – it sounds to me extremely risky! However, here's I've done it without flashing the ROM. (more)

Metro In Motion #3 – Flying Titles! | Colin Eberhardt's Adventures in WPF

published 778 days, 21 hours, 1 minute ago posted by

FantasticMrFish 782 days, 4 hours, 13 minutes ago

In this blog post I look at how to implement the fly-out fly-in effect seen in native Windows Phone 7 applications. This effect is seen in the native mail application; when you click on a message, the title flies out of the list then flies back in as the title of the message page. This is the third in my “Metro In Motion” series where I am looking at how to re-create some of the stylish transitions and animations found in native Windows Phone 7 applications. As a Silverlight developer we have controls t... (more)

If your Windows phone 7 Device is in scheduling stage and you have not received the NoDo update, this article from WinRumors will definitely help you.

Steves 786 days, 20 hours, 33 minutes ago

I have been designing apps for a while now, including apps that target lots of different devices and form factors. I thought it would be good to write a list of the top 10 things I keep in mind when designing and building phone applications. Most of these apply to any application in some way though. These points cover both the design of the experience and some visual tricks that help to make usable apps.1. Considering the user. This might seem like an obvious point, but it's probably the most important ... (more)

Metro In Motion Part #2 – ‘Peel’ Animations | Colin Eberhardt's Adventures in WPF

FantasticMrFish 789 days, 1 hour, 56 minutes ago

This blog post is part #2 of my Metro In Motion series. In this post I demonstrate how to implement the animated ‘peel’ effect seen when native Windows Phone 7 applications exit. In my previous blog post I discussed how the Metro Design Language that heavily influences the Windows Phone 7 style is not just about static graphics, it is also about fluid transitions. In that post I demonstrated a technique for making items within lists slide gracefully as the user moves between pivot pages. The post was ... (more)

Quite a few folks have been playing with the Windows Phone 7 platform, creating all kinds of crazy games, utilities, etc. for this new platform. I am no different. I simply couldn’t help myself, so once I had my new Samsung Focus in hand ( November of last year I believe ), I set out to build a game that I knew I would miss terribly after replacing my iPhone 4. This post is really less about the game however, and more about the various issues I found as I built the game and got it up on the marketplace. ... (more)

Save on Computation Heavy Algorithms for Windows Phone 7 and Windows Azure

published 792 days, 2 hours, 13 minutes ago posted by

http://tanzim.myopenid.com/ 794 days, 15 hours, 45 minutes ago

Computation heavy algorithms cost more money before optimized. You can feed your server systems enough RAM and CPUs to handle the CPU cycles and memory they require. This is not one of the most recurring investments and generally good for the application it is serving overall. If you are developing Smart Client/Desktop applications, your software can take as much as it can as long as it is running. However, in two cases careful software design can save (saving is earning) obvious money: Windows Phone and... (more)

This blog post presents an attached behaviour that gracefully slides the contents of a list into view when used in conjunction with a Pivot control, emulating the Windows Phone 7 email application.
