I need help on opening the .mobi file using the Kindle app on the Phone 7. I got a mobi file from a friend but can't figure out how to open it on my device.
No idea if someone who can actually do this

Unfortunately I don't have Kindle app on my WP7 phone because it is not available for my marketplace. But from my experience on Kindle 3 hardware reader and Windows Kindle app, you can send the .mobi file as an attachment to your @kindle.com email and amazon will take care of redistributing this file to all your Kindle reader apps.
If your document won't appear on your WP7 automaticaly, you can check your amazon account settings:
The Windows Phone and Windows 8 kindle apps don't support personal documents yet, so you cannot open your own mobi files with it. Neither with "deliver to" feature of the kindle website nor by sharing the file from a Windows Phone 8.1/Windows 8 file manager app.
