Mango Windows 7.5 is out

Amp34 any idea when the nokias are released? Apparently they are the only ones allowed to use SD cards, is this true? Is there any Wp7 which have SD card slots?

No idea about SD cards but Nokia have a conference later this month (can't remember exactly when) and going by released statements at least one phone is coming by the end of the year with some suggesting only a month after. So perhaps some time in November?
 
I received my Mozart 7 around 3 days ago(my first windows phone)

I have today updated to the 7.5 update using the forced updated which requires you to disconnect the Ethernet lead from the router when you click to update using the Zune software.

Took a few attempts mind to do this.

Overall im impressed with the OS,best ive seen on a phone and imo its better than the iphone OS and my old phone the Blackberry 9700 Bold.

A happy first time windows mobile user :)

How does the Mozart feel?, also I'm guessing the build is good with it being made by HTC?
 
Can confirm the update is out for Orange, just updating mine now, quite excited :D
I have the htc Mozart aswell, its a great phone for the money, very impressed.
 
Hey guys, could you answer me a question, on your phone do you have the option of using just GPRS or WCDMA/HSPDA?, just in my area at moment if I put my Android phone on auto it never goes on HSPDA, but if I tell it too only connect too HSPDA, its fine
 
Yeah, there is an option to turn the data connection on and off.

I installed Mango on my LG Optimus 7 last night through Zune and am really liking it. It's a large step forward that builds on all the strengths of WP7.
 
For those asking about Nokia...

May be questionable but makes sense timing wise. Conference on the 26th and suggestions of them releasing at least one phone shortly after announcements which tallies with the date of around the 7th of November.

There are also 3 phones rumoured for release by Nokia with a statement suggesting more than one phone released by years end.
 
I hope the ace is out soon, or at least get a firm jump. Getting the urge to switch.

Although link doesn't work.

Edit - working now, must have been down for maintenance.

What are the best apps you guys use? I have a Windows Phone at the moment, and downloaded my usual ones I know from Android and iOS but are there any others I should be looking out for.

You should be able to get free versions or at least trials of all of these

Updated to Mango on release, and I have to say I went from liking WP7 to being in full on man-mobile phone love with it!

Everything they have added is a great addition, and just works. :) I'm especially loving the always being signed into Facebook/Messenger chat, all through the message tile. Also, every contact having their own thread, so you can talk to them on different platforms, completely seamlessly. I had an hour conversation with someone yesterday, without realising I had used SMS and Facebook chat!

Now I have the problem that the HTC Titan has really got my interest, I was always bothered about the size, but It's not much better than the HTC Desire HD, and I never had a problem with the size of that. Anyone know where the best place to buy it would be? I can get it for ~£490 from Amazon and Expansys.
