    Sorry, I can't imagine what the problem with .Net is. Unless you're really attached to the AT&T branding in the ROM, you might consider flashing a stock ROM or one of the wonderful custom ROMs here in the forums.

    If you have the download rate set to anything other than "Never", it will automatically download when you run the app. You can set it to something like 30 minutes if you usually open it for a quick look and close it when you're done (if you only want it to update when you first open it).

    It must have something to do with the version of .Net that they put on the Fuze. Did I understand correctly that you had installed .Net 3.5 previously (since you said you uninstalled it)? If so, maybe there was a conflict between the one you installed and the version in ROM, and maybe TT will...

    Try reinstalling .Net 3.5 from the link in the first post, then do a soft reset. I can't think of any reason why the app wouldn't work as long as .Net is installed successfully.

    Great ideas in the last several posts ... thanks! I'm not sure when the next update is coming. I'll get back in the groove of things after I finish recovering from the holidays. ;) I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday, and may your gains be monster in the new year!

    Try adding the .V extension to the symbol for TSX tickers, or .TO for Toronto exchange. There's a link to more exchange extensions in the FAQ.

    I have plans to add an import/export feature for the ticker lists, which should provide what you need. At the moment though, it's not possible to manually edit the data file. If you have a PPC emulator, you could set up your stocks there and copy TickerTape.dat to your device. Otherwise, keep...

    I'm not a commodities expert by any means, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know the only tickers that exist for commodities are futures. For example, there is no ticker for "the current price of gold", instead you would use a futures ticker like GCZ08.CMX (Gold Dec...

    Nope, sorry, we don't have FM radio stations here in the US. But if you tilt the phone a certain way, you might still be able to pick up BBC. :D JUST KIDDING ... yes, of course you'll be able to pick up the radio here!

    I don't know of any other settings for that. This is my 4th or 5th WM device, and up until now they all did what you are describing. Maybe this is something that was removed in WM6. If I remember right, it was originally developed by Ericsson, and then a consortium of companies banded...

    Look at the "Storage" option in the camera settings. If it is set to Main Memory, the pictures should be in /My Documents/My Pictures. If it is set to Internal Storage, the pictures should be in /Internal Storage/My Documents/My Pictures.

    You're welcome! The Download Rate is how often it automatically update the quotes. It has no effect on clicking a ticker to view a chart. The next update will include options to disable downloading charts as well (in addition to the cached chart settings). Just add "EURUSD=X" (no quotes)...

    @MDAIIIUser -- Good ideas, I'll incorporate some things around them. I had wanted to do something similar when I started this project, but the general concensus was that nobody cared about data usage, and in the meantime I got an unlimited plan, so I didn't anymore either. :D

    TF3D Tab I've been doing a lot of research into putting TickerTape in a tab in TF3D, and this is what I have concluded: 1) So far, the only "custom" tabs that have been created were to display things that are already part of Manila (Comm Manager, for example). 2) The content of a tab can only...

    Thanks for posting the screen shots ... they'll help me figure out what to do for WVGA, since I don't have an emulator for it. The update later to adjust times to your local time will also display dates using your system settings. ;)

    The original installer creates registry entries for AppToDate, because I didn't want to create folders/clutter for those who don't use it. Moving these files would break the integration ... but I guess the cab you created doesn't make the reg entries. Do these really need to be renamed & moved...

    Post Do Diamond apps work on Touch HD

    They should work fine, but you might see some funky things due to the difference in screen dimensions. Since the Diamond is 480x640 and the HD is 480x800, some apps might look stretched out, and some might not fill the screen. But WinMo is WinMo no matter what device it's on, so they will...
