    VZW GDR2 - Orientation randomly locks?

    After updating to GDR2, my device will randomly lock its orientation. I mostly use my phone in portrait, but if I try to take a landscape picture, it won't switch. Sometimes it will lock in landscape too. I found that a reboot fixes this, but it's still a VERY annoying issue when I want to take...

    "Windows Phone" branding - Required for some manufacturers, but not others?

    Some of you may already know what I'm talking about. Some windows phones have branding on the back and others don't. Nokia hasn't released a Lumia with the branding on it. Never. HTC dropped the branding after the 8S/8X. Samsung has always used the branding. Huawei sometimes uses the...

    Windows Phone 7.8 Camera Bug

    After the update using CABs, the camera app crashes. Like you can't even hold down the button, just crashes and goes to Start. Looks like I'll be flashing back to stock.

    Downloading Youtube Videos to phone...and then moving them to computer?

    Okay, so maybe I'm blind, but is there any apps out there that let me download youtube videos on my phone and then transfer them to my computer? WHY? Because my internet is 1mbps and I have UNLIMITED LTE on my 8X. So is there any possible way to move them? I already have some preloaded with...

    [WIP] Enabling Tethering on Verizon with WP8

    I'm switching to a Verizon Unlimited Plan in two weeks and I was wondering about tethering my plan without paying $60/month (I have two lines). And, I've found a way to enable tethering without the plan, but I'm going to test it before I say anything else. Just didn't want to have people feel...

    Tips for getting out of a contract?

    I signed a 24-month commitment with AT&T on June 29, 2011, but the service sucks. I only get a bar or two in my house, can't send picture messages, and I only get EDGE...unless I drive 60+ miles. Calls are CONSTANTLY dropped-even when I'm not at home. There are two lines on the account, making...

    I sold 3 Surfaces in the past week.

    The title says it all. 1st Person: Was interested in the iPad, but I steered them clear. They say they would much rather be able to use Office. 2nd Person: Was very interested in the touch cover, and the ability to use it as a computer as well, besides the lack of legacy apps. 3rd Person: Also...

    NFC Sharing Not Working with Android

    Please, someone, explain this to me. First or all, why does Bluetooth have to be enabled for tap+send? And whenever I tap my phone to a Nexus 7 to share a picture, it makes the noise, and then on the Nexus 7 it says new tags collected and "windows.com/sd" Why can't I send my image? My nexus 7...

    Wireless Charging & the Lumia 920

    I ordered a 920 in yellow way back on the 9th and just received it yesterday. All I have to say is that it meets my expectations and I love the color. I also purchased a Powermat x2 charging plate for $20 on amazon. I can confirm-it does not use the Qi standard. I placed my phone on the dock...
