What about support for the light theme? I still can't use WP7 Root Tools on my Samsung Focus V1.3 when using the light theme - text isn't visible (I can see the folder icons, however).
Otherwise, it's great! Thank you, sir!

Are you sure you are using the latest version?

I've got WP7 Root Tools 0.8; I see your image shows version 0.9?!!

So will other apps will be able to turn on the policies with user permission and then using the API ( if any ) of the app ?
This stuff is like super user app for Android.
This is awesome stuff. So in this case, Are you forcing what permissions will be accessed to user when any app tries to access via WP7 Root Tools API.
I mssed up my question there sorry. What I was trying to ask was
"When an App Asks for Permission to be granted by the user ( Via your app ), Are the apps who ask for permission being forced to describe what they will access to the users ?"
Something like Location access warning being given by the WP Marketplace before some of the apps are installed.
Any support for HTC devices coming soon ? esp...the Verizon Trophy...
Has anyone downloaded the xap since these notifications have begun appearing? It would be highly irresponsible to allow a xap to be available for download when that xap has expired. It should be removed immediately. I have pm'd the dev and expressed my concern that there was no warning about this ever happening (that I can easily find) and this could have been handled in many other ways other than executing code on our phones that affects a working app. I love his apps and will continue to use them but this was no way to handle this situation. He could merely have said that version .7 Alpha would no longer be supported (don't ask me anymore questions, I will not be monitoring this thread etc.) and that it needed to be uninstalled prior to the installation of the new version (if he was concerned about the upgrade process).
JamesAllen said:I use several of your xaps, specifically because you developed them and I find your efforts useful and stable. I am 63 years old and have been in the business of supporting "bleeding edge" software releases for over 40 years. What you have done with the alpha .7 release is not standard practice by any means. You effectively reached into my device and removed the use of software without any notice. This is hardly standard or acceptable. You could have;
1. Provided a notice that did not require a search to find it,
2. Offered some information about a replacement,
3. Ideally, people should have been made aware of this from the onset.
There was no reason to do this, even if you knew a replacement would not overwrite the installed alpha version. You could have merely let people know they had to deinstall the alpha version and that the alpha version would no longer be supported.
Just offering some advice, the damage to trust and credibility is already done, IMHO. I will still use your xaps with enthusiasm, but what you did here with .7 alpha version has made me pause a bit.
