Thread: Web marketplace for windows phone is live

  1. #1

    Default Web marketplace for windows phone is live

    For every one that has mango already and those that should be getting it soon (very soon). The web marketplace is now live. So you can browse apps and download them. It will start downloading on your phone. I've already tested it and it works like a charm.

    Have fun guys.

    Update: My bad... You can access it at windowsphone.com
    You can also view your purchase history and reinstall the apps from there. As well as track your phone location.

    Yay! Finally an official alternative to wp7applist.com and such.
    Very nicely designed too.

    Eh roguemat, I see you voted for your own app. Nicely done though, I look forward to trying it out.

    Yeah I did. Was hoping it would somehow bump up the app in the list. It looks like the positions are based on downloads, not just ratings.

    I'll hopefully download it tonight. Have currently got a problem where I can't download through wifi directly through my phone and it looks like quite a few South Africans are having the same problem.

    Man I really hope that downloading apps through Zune works otherwise I'll still be without apps even after we can access the marketplace.

    I seem to be downloading fine via wifi, then again I am having issues changing from UK to SA... I tried every possible step but doesnt seem to help I tried changing the windows live account, no luck, changed settings on fone, no luck, also changed everything on PC, once again no luck, in fact I cant even log into zune via the windows live ID as it says my pc and windows live details are not the same - hence all the changes... maybe i shud just get a new windows live ID?

    I'm also having trouble with the marketplace. I can 'buy' apps when connected to zune but on the phone it wont install when connected to zune (USB cable) or via WIFI. Only downloads and installs on mobile data. I bought a 100mb (R50) 8ta data bundle and killed it in 1 hour! lol.

    One thing that I just got the change to test out recently is the download button on the web marketplace. You click it and the app/game starts downloading on your phone!
    Freaking awesome, and works flawlessly for me!

    To those with the problems above checkout the DNS fix in other threads.
