Instead of complaining about the software , it doesnt do this it doesnt do that , no Samsung support ,etc , lets see what you can do to support the community? These guys never said thaere would be support for all devices , but , it will give ideas to others , the really smart people in this forum will make it happen , im not one of them , and I would imagine your not either , so instead of bashing the people who are making WP7 so amazing , either add something to the community or shut the **** up!

I wish I can be a tester of this wonderful software guys but frankly i can't do a donation now since life here in the Philippines is not that as easy now.. anyway I would like to say to the developer of this program I am at your full support! Have a great day always and keep releasing good apps!

I played around a bit with a HD2 and LG Optimus 7. For HTC devices this is a killer app with full file system access etc. The best thing is that you can do all the file moving from the PC which is great for adding ringtones and Navigon stuff :)
On LG things are not that great. File system access is restricted currently to Windows and My Documents. At least you can copy all your MP3's directly to My Ringtones, so Ringtone deployers are a thing of the past :)

Great app

I was able to add custom ringtones through this, and also added 3 Word .docx documents to my phone, but I can't access them, don't know how to open them.

Blog post dated january 10 notes that

Windows Phone Device Manager detects when the phone is connected or disconnected, if you don't have a registered developer device it can automatically unlock your phone, so you don't need ChevronWP7 anymore.

does it sitll have this feature?

thanks

When i connect to my mozart 7 the software says "HTC 7 Mozart T8698 is not registred. Your phone must be registred or unlocked in order to use Windows Phone Device Manager."

What is the problem ?!? :(

Hints: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
  • Make sure port 8007 is not blocked by firewall on PC and port 8107 is reachable on device.
I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate, created ports 8007 and 8107 in Windows Firewall in Inbound and Outbound Rules. Disabled Anti Virus, still cannot connect. Is this correct or I had done it wrongly?

Hope you can give some guidance.

I'm downloading .NET Framework 4 (Standalone Installer) to reinstall.

Thanks.

Quick question on this because i am a bit confused.
Is there a way to use this App without unlocking the phone??
When i try the various options it is saying please register / or unlock your phone, so does this mean that if i donate and register the program i will be able to install .xap apps and ringtones or i need to chevron unlock my HD7 as well??

I am on nodo and although i tried going back to 7008 and using chevron i couldn't get it to install, i tried almost everything except going back to 7004. Well i hope the nodo unlock is resolved quickly because i am this close to throwing the damn thing in the garbage.

Posted this in the other thread but figured I'd post it here also, just in case;

My HD2 (running Twilight ROM) will connect but won't allow me to do most things, like explore my phone & apps. It will try to connect with my phone, then says unable to connect with LEO70. I close that out & it shows it connected on my laptop, but not in touchexperience. It's also being read as LEO70, while all other programs read it as HD7. Not sure if I missed a step, any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Forgot to mention, I do have all needed programs & have my phone developer unlocked. Running Vista.

    I agree, nice interface, nothing inside, wait another month for what???
    The really solution for people looking for taking full control on phone 7, will come from another developer, sometime, I assume!! :(

    Ok I understand that sometimes Shaps shouldn't ad us too early and make us wait long to finally release tools who are not complet, at the risk to disappoint us.
    But remember DFT make us wait 4 month before they release magldr.
    WP7 is a new OS,there is still lot of work to do. Everyone here have a life, maybe a work, a wife and some kids behind the screen.

    People like shaps are doing the best they can, and just for this don't blame it.
    If you don't like his work, log off this topic.

    • Organize applications & games
    • File explorer
    • Multitasking support
    • TouchXperience port taking benefit from Metro UI
    • Background customization

    • Communication manager

    • You can initiate connection from both PC and device (tap PC Synchronization in TouchXperience to etablish connection from device). You can connect via USB or Wi-Fi, but the first time you have to connect via USB so WP Device Manager can deploy TouchXperience and your device can get your PC IP address.
    • In the current version you can't manually set the PC or phone IP address to connect, or change default ports.
    • Make sure port 8007 is not blocked by firewall on PC and port 8107 is reachable on device.
    • When WP Device Manager initiate a connection and can't connect to the phone, in case you are connected via USB it will launch TouchXperience, in other cases it will send a push notification to your phone asking you to manually launch TouchXperience
    • Some tasks requires your phone screen to be unlocked
    • It is not necessary to have Zune runing in order to use WP Device Manager.
    • If WP Device Manager does not start at all, make sure you installed all the requirements and try to reinstall full .NET Framework 4.0 and developer tools.
    • If you are not able to connect or if some features are not properly working, go to Settings in WP Device Manager, click Restore default settings and eventually restart your PC.
    • If Windows Phone Device Manager is not able to communicate with TouchXperience, go to Settings in WP Device Manager, click Restore default settings and restart your PC. Try to temporarly disable your anti-virus or firewall programs to see if that's the problem. You can also try the registry fix in attachment
    • If you have connection problems, try the following may help: unplug/replug your phone, close or start Zune, restart WP Device Manager, make sure your device is detected by Zune, in worst case restart your PC.
    • WP Device Manager or some components of it may be considered as potential threat by anti-virus or firewall programs, this is a false alarm, you may need to add exceptions to your anti-virus or firewall may prevent WP Device Manager from working correctly.
    • WP Device Manger is automatically disconnected when you quit TouchXperience (for example when you launch an app or return to Start screen). This is not a bug, this is because TouchXperience is stopped due to the lack of native multitasking in WP7. To workaround you can enable multitasking in TouchXperience settings.
    • Tap on a menu title in TouchXperience and the main menu will show up
    • If you want to take screenshots of an other application on the phone you need to enable multitasking in TouchXperience settings
    • Some features needing high privileges on the phone (f.e. file system access) may not be available, this depends on the unlock level of your phone.
    • Applications installed with other tools than WP Device Manager are not recognized (they are identified by their id) on non-HTC device. To solve the problem you can simply browse your original XAP files, application info will be automatically cached and diplayed in the app manager.
    • If only sideloaded applications are displayed it's because your phone does not have full file system access.
    • Some application versions are incorrect. This is due to the fact that some developers does not update their application manifest with correct version number when they release new versions. To fix the problem you can check for app updates and click on Dismiss All assuming all your applicatons have been updated to their latest version.
    • You can't copy most of DLL and EXE in \Windows directory, this is simply because these are not files but modules.
    • You can check TouchXperience version in Settings or in WP Device Manager application list.
    • You should have a folder with device name in My Documents on your PC, place here the files you want to sync with the phone.
    • You can send toast notifications from any program on your PC using command line C:\Windows\WPDeviceManager\WPDeviceManager.exe /SendToast "message".
    • In order to use WP Device Manager from Windows Device Stage, you must have Windows 7 and driver signature verification disabled, unfortunately this is because Windows 7 recognize only digitally signed drivers.
    • Be carefull when using device restoration, incorrect usage or unexpected bugs may cause loss of data.
    • Don't use full backup/restore feature on custom ROMS!
    • If you get a message "Unable to launch TouchXperience" on custom ROMS it's because the ROM has some missing components, so you have to launch it manually.
    Please uninstall any previously installed version of WP Device Manager and TouchXperience on your phone.

    All I am saying is why post this thread? Does the OP just want to taunt those that don't have the tool?
    Really, you "just wanted to post updates on the Beta Testing" that everyone else is not privy too?

    That is what's weak! Not Julien's work. He's doing real work! This thread is useless!!!!

    The goal of xda developers is to post information regarding development. That includes development in alpha, beta, closed or open. How in the heck is this different than any of the launchers in android that haven't been released, the programs users are developing for wp7, or any sort of development not released?

    xda is information and a place where users and develop interact to find solutions to common problems, where users can become developers, and inform users of development for their xda/samsung/wp/android device.

    So why does this thread exist? it's x - d - fricking a! That's why! So if you have a problem with imfloflo (moderator) posting this topic, take it up to PM and don't clutter the topic of what you feel doesn't need to be here.

    And yes that's what's WRONG with xda
