    Does anyone else here hate the Windows 10 mobile Calendar app?

    I actually really like the calendar but I use it pretty exclusively in week view unless I'm trying to find a specific event or date in the past or future. What I don't like though is that on the live tile it only shows the first even listed, so if there are multiple events for a day it only...

    Do You VR?

    When I got the idol it was a nice plus to get the VR but ultimately it's a waste of time and space. I tried it in the first week and almost puked after abt 30 minutes. It probably would have been better if there were directions on how to use the VR but I spent the whole time trying to just...

    How do I stop Windows 10 from automatically connecting to wifi?

    Generally when you connect it will have an option for auto connect, so it can make sure you are picking the right one and not just searching for random wifi signals. Select your connection and try changing the setting.

    Outlook issues

    Thanks for the info. I tried a few things and one that seemed to help was I went to my individual email servers and checked the settings for sending messages to the 3rd party app (outlook mail) one of them had a setting to choose which messages got set, all, all minus ones that are flagged junk...

    Outlook issues

    For some reason my app for outlook is getting a ton of spam mail and I'm having 2 problems. I can't mark anything as spam in the app. But I also can't access my mail through the outlook website directly to mark it as spam through there either. When I log in to the outlook .com site nothing...

    How many accidental screenshots do you take a week?

    Oh my god sooooo many!! At least 4-5 a day. You'd think I was doing it on purpose I have so many screenshots, because who would have that many on accident.

    Text message notifications no longer working

    I have this issue randomly .. What I do to test if it's just not receiving them is send a text to myself and see if it comes back. If it doesn't, just a restart will usually fix the problem

    Choosing a Windows Phone

    I've got the Alcatel Idol 4s and I really love it, like your wife I use my phone for most basic functions and a few apps. It might be with checking out. It's a little pricy, even with the VR included, but I don't mind paying a little more for a phone that works as it should.

    Is there anyone here regret buying Windows Phone?

    I don't regret it at all. I'm also not a huge game or app person either. Although I don't know how surprised you can really be that there aren't a ton of options in the store, that's kind of been the theme of windows phone since they came out.

    my laptop battery drains completely even after shutting it down.

    I actually have this issue with my laptop as well. I've tried everything from turning off apps to disconnecting the wifi when I'm done using it and still haven't found a solution. It's most frustrating because it will be fully charged and ill do a full shut down when I'm done, but I try to turn...

    What issues have you run into with this phone so far?

    I haven't had a problem with it when I answer from locked, but sometimes when I talk on the phone it'll put my call on hold then try to calling the person I'm already talking to.

    Why W10M/WP?

    For me, and it seems many others, it all started because of my love for Nokia, aside from a year or two with a the Motorola razor when it first came out in the early 2000's all my phones have been Nokia. My first phone was the one with the pop off plastic face plates, and I will say until my...

    T-Mobile's sometimes helpful service

    I recently learned something that I probably should have known already, (and most probably do too) for some reason it never clicked, but it made much sense of how some stores are definitely willing to work with you about windows phones and some only belittle your choice and seem to act as if you...

    What issues have you run into with this phone so far?

    My only real issue is the same one I had with my Fierce XL. Every couple days the sounds stop working. I'll be texting and then all the notifications stop sounding, no texts, calls, or alarms. I usually just restart and it solves the problem. It's small and I can work around it, but it's still...
