    No Sound from streamon.fm in Edge on Windows Phone

    I tried to listen to a radio station on streamon.fm, but even though the page says its streaming, theres no sound. I'm guessing this is some sort of unsupported tech issue but haven't been able to confirm what streamon.fm uses but I'm guessing flash. Is there way to confirm this and/or get...

    Window 10 Mobile - No Notification Sounds (Email, Voicemail)

    My phone stopped making sounds to notify me that I have a new email or voicemail. I checked my notification settings and have the sound selected for both. If I check my mail settings though, the "Play a sound" checkbox is unchecked and disabled. I can't find a similar setting for voicemail...

    Outlook Mail Closes Automatically - Can't Copy/Paste

    After the latest update a couple days ago, I have discovered I can't copy text from an email to paste into another app (e.g. Edge). At first I thought I wasn't copying it correctly so pasted the text into a draft of an email and that worked fine. Then I noticed that when I switch to another app...

    Is there a "real" flip to silence app?

    Hi, The "flip to silence" feature is useless in my opinion as it doesn't stop the phone from ringing in the first place. It's much easier to just hit a button to stop the ringing once it's started to silence it then to pick it up and flip it. Is there an app available that will actually stop...

    How to Stop Phone Keypad from Contracting During Calls Hi, On my Lumia 820 running 8.1, when I'm on a call, the keypad "contracts" automatically and shows the call history list. I have to hit the "Tap to Expand" bar at the top of the screen to see the keypad. This is really annoying when I...

    Simple Interval Timer

    I am looking for a simple interval timer app for running. I have a watch with that functionality, but when I'm listening to music on my phone, I don't hear the watch beeping on the intervals. Something that runs/beeps while I'm also listening to my music and that doesn't require any...

    Hi I am looking for suggestions for an alternate program to OneNote. I don't like the fact that I can't stop OneNote from syncing to OneDrive and I find managing notebooks awkward on the phone. I would like a fairly simple app that allows pages or sections to organize notes and ideally I...

    Bulk Select Calendar Appointments?

    Does anybody know of a way to bulk select appointments in the Windows Phone Calendar? After resetting my phone a few days ago, one of my calendar appointments has duplicated itself over 2000 times. They also show up in my outlook.com account, so it's not just a display glitch. Is there a way...

    Busted LCD Screen

    Hi, I dropped my 820 last night and it appears to have busted the LCD screen (black ink like blotch slowly spreading and taking up the screen). The touch panel digitzer is fine, no cracks and the touch capability is still good. It's out of warranty and I've been calling around local repair...

    Ear Bud Recommendations

    Hi, I have a Lumia 820 and would like to get a set of ear bud headphones to wear while working out. The ones that came with the phone are fine and I like the button that pauses/plays my music and lets me skip songs. But I would love to be able to adjust the volume as well. I keep my phone in...

    Hi, I updated my Lumia 820 last night to 8.0.10211.204 and now my battery is draining super fast. I haven't installed any new apps or manually changed any settings (maybe the update did something I'm not aware of). Before the update, I would normally have 50% battery left at the end of day...

    WP8 - Couple Tweaks Needed

    Hi, I got my Nokia Lumia 820 just over a month ago and overall I'm really happy with it. Previously I had a Nokia SuperNova 7510, so I can't compare WP8 to an iPhone or Android phone. Like I said, I'm happy overall with it, but there are a couple things that I would love tweaked. If somebody...
