I will use it as a sword for the last charge in the battle for the best smartphone in the world! They may delay the Win10 update for older devices but they will never take... OUR LUMIAAAAAS!!

Thanks for the info! I guess I got a hot date tonight with the Nokia recovery tool :unhappysweat:

Were you running wp 8.1 developer preview? Sent from my RM-820_nam_canada_200 using Board Express

Not at all, it's a known issue that affects a certain percentage of lumia phones and it's obviously small enough that it's underserving of a simple progress update from mr. Belfiore See here:https://twitter.com/joebelfiore/status/497457406117302272 So the only way out it appears is a factory...

So i'm sorry to report that the 80188308 is alive and well, and it's preventing the CYAN update from rolling to my Rogers 920 running 8.1 DP. Words cannot convey my anger right now...

If any of the lucky ones have unlocked phones, can you confirm that Nokia access point still works, moat importantly does internet sharing works? Thanks you guys Sent from my RM-820_nam_canada_200 using Board Express

MS + Nokia merger: what's gonna happen to my 920? Just starting a thread to discuss what will happen after the merger. Here are some of the questions I have. What will happen to warranty? What about software updates? The unlocked lumias are dependent on Nokia exclusive app like access point...

I could not have said it better! In fact I seem to recall Microsoft claiming that with WP8, carriers would not be co*kblocking the update process and if problems were to arise they would bypass them altogether. I hate to say it but if Microsoft is serious about being a "device and services"...

Lol, AGREED! Sent from my RM-820_nam_canada_200 using Board Express

And now Canadians guys owning Samsung Ativ-S... the worst handset for updates and exclusive features are getting the update... DAMN YOU ROGERS!!! I know my Ativ-S colleague will be busting my chops all day long tomorrow!

OMG buddy did you read the post before replying? We're talking about internet sharing here sir!. We know you can manually set the data and mms apns, It's a fact, the earth is round too... but for many carriers there is a special internet sharing apns that needs to be set. My provider (Telus) is...

I feel for you man, I just been through the hard reset from hell myself. I had my phone spinning cogs in my friggin pocket on my way to work feeling so stupid for hoping it was going to come out of it... but it did. Glad to hear you got it working again. I have to say I'm happy so far.

Yes sir, the access point app was the first I downloaded after the hard reset and it works. It applies the profile without crashing. Dude, the access point app is the only way for unlocked lumia 920 owners to get internet sharing working, all you folks rambling about "adding the apn manually"...

Wow I would never recommend hrd reseting to my worst enemy, what a hell ride!!! took three attempt 4 hours each to get it to boot back up. The good news is that access-point is working. But what a heavy price to pay!!

Well after all that I decided to take the plunge and hard reset... and guess what... the damn phone appears to be bricked, I'm trying all the "natural ways" to revive it so I'll let you guys know if that was all for nothing :unhappysweat:

Seriously, that thread is a mix and matches of useless and sometimes contradictory"solutions", but most importantly, it does not address the problem of th access point app not working. I tried all the so called fix in there even if I knew they were bogus and none work for this particular issue...

For those of us with a crashing access point app. I would like,to know if someone did try to hard reset their phone with a working access point app as a result. If it works, I'll do it if not I'll wait for a fix. Sent from my Lumia 920 using Board Express

I'd like to know if anyone with am unlocked lumia has a functioning access point app since 1314. Sent from my Lumia 920 using Board Express

THANK YOU!!!! now I know I'm not alone!!! Let me know if you ever figure it out... I'll wsit a bit before I do a hard reset

So to be more precise, I'm running an unlocked Rogers Lumia 920 batch 46 on TELUS. The apn settings in cellular is useless because wp8 has no way to specify a tethering apn. Many carriers have distinct apns for internet, mms and tethering (aka internet sharing). The access point app is the only...
