Not that this is of any help but the windows phone ecosystem seems way more restrictive than even the much maligned Apple one.
So much for the promise there will be no fragmentation in Windows Phone... .--On 11 October 2012 16:25, Steve Obbayi <steve@sobbayi.com> wrote:
Hi Allan,
still searching?
Both your devices are Generation 1 devices, which originally came with
WP7. the upgrade does not install the sim toolkit and a few other things
so you will either need to get an original 2nd generation WP7.5 mango
device eg the Nokia Lumia, later samsung omnia, htc titan/radar etc or
wait for WP7.8 which will look like wp8. The upgrade which should be
available later this month at least for the Lumia. Hopefully they will
include the sim toolkit
The same will happen to those of us with WP 7.5 our upgrade will take us
up to WP 7.8 rather than the full WP8 so if I want all the features of WP8
I will have to buy a new WP8 device
Hope this clears everything.
