I've been a strong advocate of the Windows Lumia line, starting with the 900, then the 920, 550, 830 and 950. Maybe another one in there somewhere. No doubt, the 950 has been the best, I got it on its release day in 2015. But it started to go, and had reached a point where it was shutting off...

Until a couple of days ago, everything had been working fine on my L950. Suddenly I'm not getting text alerts, I'm not getting the new text icon on the screen, no vibration when a new text arrives, no text sound. Any suggestions on what to check? I've looked at Settings/Notifications, but didn't...

Some time ago, maybe a month, my calendar appointment sound became very short. Up to that point, I could have at least a minute of whatever .mp3 I wanted, now it only lasts about 10 seconds, no matter how long the .mp3 file is. Something has obviously changed, but I can't find any setting on the...

If I understand correctly a .jpg will deteriorate over multiple openings and savings, but a .png won't. These are both compressed formats, but it seems the .png is superior because it is lossless. Is there any way to have the camera app save photos in .png, or do they all need to be converted...

I have a new replacement band, everything is sync'd and running. Except when I go into the health app and try to punch down into the sleep data, it just takes me back to my phone start screen. Same thing happens when I try to look at my exercise data. I can look at footsteps and calories burned...

I've had this idea that I'd like to move my OneDrive folders from my main hard drive to the uSD drive I've got installed in my Surface Pro3. Currently I'm storing all my local media on the uSD, so it makes sense to me to put the OneDrive folders there as well. When I tried relocating OneDrive...

Carrying my Surface Pro3 from one room to another, my wireless network adapter quit working. Not sure what's going on, I checked all the pieces in the pipe - cable modem, no problem, wireless router, no problem. I can plug an ethernet cable into the SP3 dock, no problem. It's just when trying to...

I've got a Pro3 Docking Station and thought I'd see if there are any firmware updates available. I've never updated the firmware, as far as I know. I downloaded the MS Surface Dock Updater, and ran it, but it stopped, prompting me to attach the dock. I was already attached to the dock, and...

A co-worker forwarded a few articles to me this morning, about Microsoft selling off at least part of the Lumia line. Microsoft may have just killed its Lumia line. Good riddance - CNET...

Anyone see any differences with the update?

I've got my Band 2 set up so a double push on the main button launches my music control for my phone. This is fine, unless the double push is a mistake. Once that happens, I can't find any way to exit out of the music control mode. Anyone have any ideas how to shut it down once it's been...

Something fairly new, if I shut my phone off, then turn it back on, a message pops up telling me that something has happened to my phone or my SIM card and a reboot is needed. This is an AT&T 950, OS: 10.0.10586.218, with FW: 01078.00038.16025.39033. Anyone else seeing this?

Has anyone found a way to remove the top section of the MS Health app, the one for connecting with others on MS Health? I don't anticipate using this, and would like to either delete it or at least move it down to the bottom of the sections in the app's home screen.

I noticed it had shut off, and wouldn't respond to the power button. I assumed the battery had run down, so I plugged it in. The screen came up, telling the batter was low and it had lost the date and time, I needed to reset them. I did, and left it to charge. 2 hours later, it was still at 0%...

Running a 950 on AT&T, standard OS. Yesterday I had an update that took me to 10.0.10586.164. I just checked and another update was ready to install. No difference to the OS, but I didn't check the FW yesterday after the update, today it's 01078.00038.16025.39033. Anyone else get two updates in...

I bought the Pro 4 type cover for my Pro 3, it's been a great upgrade. Curious about upgrading to the SP4 pen? What differences / advantages are there?

I've known that the USB port on the SP3 is under-powered, but hadn't thought about it until just now. I just plugged my Lumia 950 into the USB port to transfer some files to my phone, and received an alert that the USB port had received a power surge, surpassing the power capability of the port...

My son's new XPS13 won't boot. The battery discharged all the way down, so he plugged in the charger and charged it back to full, based on the touch LEDs. But now it won't boot. Any recommendations?

I haven't had an alert show up on my band since 12.28. It's still sync'd to my phone, I can see steps, calories, sleep data, etc. but no alerts. I've tried shutting phone and band off, I've reset my band to factory defaults and re-connected it to the phone via the health app, etc. Any other...

My email and message alerts have quit working as of yesterday. I have both vibration enabled and valid alert tones selected, but no response when messages or emails arrive. They're also not generating alerts on my connected Band 2. I've tried soft resetting my phone, no change. I've checked...
