How do I convert my .smd and .bin rom into .gb roms for this app?

You might be in the same spot I am in. I placed my order on 3/30 as soon as the website opened up. I was billed yesterday for the phone so I assumed I would get shipping / tracking information today however, I never got it. So I checked my bank account once again and i noticee the charge from...

Before I get started I want to say before I read the Engadget review I have already read reviews from cnet, and the huffington Post. I was really shocked by the review Engadget has published for the Lumia 900. The other three professional reviews I had read had mostly praises for the phone...

I was able to do it. I was asked abut 3 times if I wanted a new number or transfer a line from another service. It was always a really small option but it was at the top of the input information pages.

I got the $100 dollar discount, but that discount didn't make it free. It brought the price down from $199.99 to $99.99. I think $200 is the intended retail price, but a $100 promotion bring the price down to $100. It might be free for others, but thats the way it worked with my company discount.

With the 18th only 6 days away now and still no official announcement I am going to assume it isn't coming out yet :( . I think Nokia really screwed up big time by previewing it so early and then letting all the buzz disappear (especially with the new iPad now out ) I still plan to get one but...

This comment is ridiculous when you remember windows phone 8 is a desktop OS on a phone. well at least the kernel. Quad cores however, are not needed on a phone at this point of time. Tablets yes, phones no. But to all that worry, Apollo is coming out this year

Hi Everyone I wanted to start this thread because one of the major advantages to Windows 8 is the wide range of devices it can be installed on. The way I see it Windows 8 is not meant to be installed on just a single computer but rather provide users an ecosystem of devices to make there...

Polycarbonate is a plastic, however it is not to be confused with other more commonly used plastics derived from ethylene and propylene. The properties and uses of a polycarbonate are so different from even a high density polyethylene plastic that it is hard to classify the 2 in the same...

the Windows Phone 8 hardware specs look amazing. I was going to get a Lumia 900 but now I might just wait for this

I know it's a little too early for this thread but it's going to be an interesting topics which will be debated endlessly in the next couple months. Lets face it, CES did little to convince us either options will be superior. Background information: Windows 8 seems to be designed for not only...

Verizon can not change your current contact if they wanted to, its as signed contract. If you agree to a new contract you agree to the terms under that contact. Your unlimited data will be forced to a tiered plan if you sign a contract with those terms. You can not expect rules of a previous...

I'm having the same problem. It will not show any widgets in the drop down menu.

I know store reps rarely know anything true but I was told switching your sim into a different 4G Verizon phone will switch all services. Cell phone companies can now tell what kind of phones sims are in so I'd be surprised if the CDMA info didn't automatically change. But I wouldn't want that...

the bigger question here is what kind of plant lets you take your cell phone out around the plant? Those are supposed to be no cell phone areas

The problem with android is that after you have had a nexus one nothing else really compares. It was so nice to get supported directly through google and have the greatest dev community possible. Not even the NS dev community can really compare to what the nexus one used to have. Unfortantely...

I waso 100% sold on the Xoom and was going to get one on launch day until I found out you HAVE to get a data plan to use Wi-Fi. Does that make any sense what so ever :confused::mad: The $800 price tag didn't even scare me; I expected to pay that much for something great, but the data plan...

i didnt even know it was possible to brick an HD7. Im calling this a user error on his part. He must be trying to do something that causes them to break.

but you are wrong. 6.5 and 6.5.x were still windows mobile... WP7 is the first iteration of a brand new OS

To all those who say they are disappointed in what the OS right now all I have to ask is do you see yourself switching to anything else in the future? Disappointed start is 100% on bad commercials.

might as well add automatic toilet paper dispenser. What ever happened to the idea of a projector phone? I wouldnt mind having a 3.7" screen again if it could project its picture on the wall in high quality.

haha thats true, in this city you can drive down pretty much any road and find a cell phone store, and we have plenty of streets. One of the stores i posted before the manager even told me he wont let anyone buy one. I was shocked.

really? Every Best Buy, T-mobile and AT&T has tried to get my to look away from WP7 in Houston. I am Referring to the Sugar Land Best Buy, Midtown T-Mobile, Galleria T-Mobile, Tunnel system AT&T Best Buy off Gessner, etc.

I'm sorry but i live in Houston (4th largest city in the US) and I still always fall to edge and i work in downtown... T-mobile has it followers who stand by it, but after over a years worth of use, I miss AT&T.

I used to be a big android fan, and I'm still thinking about getting an atrix, but with android you always have to ask yourself, what is the point of all that great hardware if the OS isn't optimized for it. I've had a Vibrant and an N1. I LOVED my N1, and I wish I still had one, but I quietly...

A swipe to the right on the notification bar dismisses them on WP7, it is quite quick.

Nope. Even if you managed to get the drivers to work none of the live services would work

whats even more pathetic is when people who do not like or even own a WP7 device come into a WP7 forum just to hate on it ;)

dont pay attention to them, they are just fandroids

i still cant for the life of me figure out why android lovers who do not even own a WP7 device come into this forum to preach the holy gospel of android. i love my HD7. It actually has a great music player with great integration with the marketplace. If im driving around and hear a song I...

nexus 1, nexus s. those are the only 2 devices google officially supports... also i never said they were perfect devices, just the only 2 devices google bothers to optimize the os for. you might want to learn to read before you insult someone. if you are going to try to be a fanboy, at least...

xp is a 10 year old operating system... while 2.2 is 7 months or so so your analogy doesnt work. I also didnt know you worked at motorola... I'm sure they programed the drivers to work on there device even if they aren't 100% complete yet. Also when you are trying to talk technical you might...

you do realize the phone which preformed slower has MUCH better hardware specs?

i'd have to switch contracts again and still know there is something else faster. I left at&T to go to t-mobile for the n1, that broke so i got a vibrant (awful phone), then i bought an hd7 off contract. After spending all that money i wouldnt want anything else unless it was LTE becasue that is...

4G also means HSPA+ which AT&T also has... I just read the Moto page again, NO LTE. "4G speeds delivered by HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul" Unfortunately that might be a deal killer for me but we'll see

I'm thinking about ditching my HD7 for this thing. Everything it has is completely awesome, but does anyone know if it has LTE? I've been reading conflicting reports about this. If it does have it, I'm completely sold.

That is how all OSs start. We all should of known going in, but it is the best multimedia phone still. The real update is scheduled for later this year and is called mango. Until then consider the os have done.

from a simple stand point i can see your stance, but once you know the technology it makes since. Solar energy is actually the leading cause for the push in energy storage, but maybe cell phones will help push that. What i honestly think is going to happen id the evolution of the power mat from...

simple? if it was so simple why wouldn't you or anyone else for that matter do it? I guess its because im an engineer and i know science that i find this statement ridiculous. Lithium is the best element for energy storage and that is already being used. This is because lithum's desire to give...

no its the memory storage type the OEM used. MircoSD vs NAND. NAND is much faster but more expensive so HTC cut down costs and used MicroSD over NAND. Bad choice but i still like my HD7.

I have this problem with one of the star wars games. It goes to load a map and then I'm back at the XBOX Live menu. No other game does this for me. Restarting the phone gets it to work but it is annoying.

yep thats the way i see it.

are you going to ignore every point I have made?

i think we all know about the loading times problem. Most of it though is contributed to the fact that microsd cards were used over nand. Loading times ARE a problem, but isn't overall experience more important? Didn't the market choose PS over n64 even with the loading time problem? The same...

I love how you pronounce a thread answered and dead when you are A) not the OP or B) not a mod. :rolleyes: Does it worry me? No, because like I said, I see more out of this platform than android. The iphone still has a better overall experience, but its on a 3.5 in screen and that worries me...

To fully answer your question, the answer is yes it likely is possible however, since microsoft closely controls who is allowed onto the market place you will not be able to access it or any of the other cloud based services (pretty much the entire OS).

This is exactly why I switched to WP7. I have a vibrant and while I LOVED the screen, I felt it was pointless because there was not enough great games out on android. N.O.V.A. dragon age, and asphalt were awesome and alot of fun but those had to be bought directly from the gameloft app store...

The same reason why the N1 wasn't at retail stores. Companies are looking into ways to save more money and they are trying to see if a 100% online store can accomplish that.

I hate to say it, but I don't think we will ever see any emulation programs on WP7 until we are allowed to side load data. I doubt Zune would allow loading of roms therefore the program would be useless. This is also assuming Microsoft lets these programs on the market. The emulation/rom market...
