Announcing the Official WPCentral app for Windows Phone 7

[anon(5335899)]

Probably will yes.. but I'm not in a hurry.. I like the Radar a lot, but the Lumia is just that much better.. And it helps if you get one for free..

Hmm yes this issue definitely sounds like an OS issue out of my control I'm afraid! I suggest contacting Microsoft directly

Lol I guess that means I can't get a cheap Radar from you then if you're not in a hurry.

Reply notifications, whilst I agree would be awesome will probably not be technically possible for some time so don't hold out hope for that one.
As for local timezones, that was implemented in version 2? All times I receive from the server are parsed and converted to your local timezone, unless you think you've found a bug?

Hey Jay ,

to bad for the notifications.... couldn't you just have it link to a little Number ( like how many news update their is? ) like the number in a black circle??

ah well maybe near Apollo

As for the time zone , i think your right , at the time i posted, the time was WAY OFF lol , but maybe my phone just had a little hic-up with the updates cause now it seems to be working

Mine has quit updating as well. Hey Jay!

 

[Jay Bennett]

Hey guys, if it's stopped updating the quickest way to fix it is to ensure background tasks are enabled for WPCentral (check your phone settings screen) then go into the app's settings and disable then re-enable the live tile.

It happens occasionally due to the way background tasks in the OS work. I think I'm going to write a feature into the next update which will diagnose tile issues and try to help you fix them automatically...

It started working on it's own

Hey Jay,

I sent a message in via the contact form on the site a few days ago but didn't hear anything back. Posting here as well in case it went astray....

I had been having issues with not being able to turn back on the background task for WPcentral v2. So I deleted the app and was going to reinstall it (I had purchased the full version one you first relased v1 way back when....).

When I went to the marketplace to reinstall though it would only let me install either as try or buy. So I hit try and am stuck with the ad and restricted version. How do I get back to reinstalling the full version? It was purchased with live id if that helps....

Cheers,

DavidM

If you will go ahead and chose buy you will then be greated with something like you have already purches this app would you like to reinstall it again or something like that. You won't have to purchase it again. I hope that helps you.

Please don't post personal information like email addresses in open forum it is against forum rules this rule is for your protection.

 

[Eject_Porkins]

If you already purchased the app, just hit "Buy". You won't be charged again. Also, I have this same problem once in a while with this app.

 

[dnmartin98]

Thanks guys. That worked. Sorry for posting the email address and thanks for deleting it for me!

Hi there,

First I would like to say, THANK YOU for such a high quality and wonderful website and WP7 app! I love your articles and the latest updates. But I am hoping someone can give me a hand with the issue below...

I just reinstalled it on my new Lumia 900! But for some reason the "Share" via Facebook function is not working. It is stuck in the "This is the one time setup for Facebook..." success screen whenever I click Share to share an article. I've uninstalled the app and reinstalled on my phone but no luck. Would this be a bug? Strange I haven't seen anyone else reporting this issue.

Thanks for the help!

Yes Ivan it will be released soon as long as the marketplace is up and working!

@beefydragon: I am aware of the problem, it only affects a few users and you'll see I've taken steps to solve it in the upcoming version!
