Hey guys,
Got my nokia the other day. First of im really happy with the phone though it is pretty big. But ill get use to it. I have some general questions that i think other users might also have for someone who is brand new to the wp8 world and nokia. I came from the Iphone world.
1. Can you turn the phone on any other way then hitting the button on the right and swipping the lock screen?
2. Can you get a popup asking you about joining a wifi network, or you have to go into settings and connect that way?
3. Is there not an app that shows you the weather on the lock screen
4. Closing programs, is there any other way to close programs then hitting the <-(back) button on the program, really annoying ex. closing down Explorer after you browsed for a while as you have to hit the back button many times until it final closes
5. Can you swipe between programs or do you have to hold down the back button to see what other programs are open
6. Can you change the keyboard layout or update it? i keep hittin the return button when im trying to hit the backspace button
7. Can you have your ring volume high but when people send ur sms and other stuff at a lower volume, still want to hear it but just lower?
8. Backing up phone - I know the phone backs up sms and photo, but does it back all your settings contacts and everything? so like if you got a new version you just plug it in and its identitacl to the old one.
Thx guys!
really appriciate the help, and im glad to be a member of the WP8 world
