My trusty, old Lumia 820 running 8.1 is heading for the obsolete gadgets drawer with the recent unreliability of even the browser version of Facebook proving to be the final straw to add to an ever growing mountain of lost functionality. Getting back into the modern connected world with a...

The past few days the New Posts function is always returning a "nothing to find" status. Yet when I use the Todays Posts function I can see the many new posts there have been since my last visit and which should have been found. Anyone else getting this or have any suggestions as to why?

I use three different wireless chargers for my Lumia 820. One by my bed, one in my living room and a portable power pack for when I am out and about. All different makes and models. What I find is that sometimes when I have been using on charger then it won't charge properly on another one...

Two days ago the Facebook app stopped working on my WM8.1 phone (stopped updating the feeds) and the browser version at m.facebook.com is not very functional. However, I found a bit of advice to use mbasic.facebook.com and while not looking as slick, does provide all the basic functionality...

Can we have the old one back please?

You know how sometimes you close an app down completely but battery usage continues to be insanely high even if nothing is supposedly active? I assume this is down to some background activity started up by an app has not closed down when it should. Powering the phone on and off is a sure fire...

Got a notification from Here+ yesterday that there were map updates available. Dismissed the notification as I was out and about but later at home when back on my home wi-fi went into Settings->Applications->Maps-> Check for updates but get the message Can't connect: We can't reach the maps...

I am logged out and there is no login option. Been like this for a few days now. What gives? Edit: And now I am logged in just by making this post. Weird!

I just can't see how to do it. Set up a playlist then there is no option to play all. Tried playing the first from the list to see if it automatically starts playing the next when it ends but no.

Seems to be whenever I add more than ten feeds to the app running on my Lumia 820 under WP8.1. Was fine before I got the update yesterday when used with 15/20 feeds. Anyone else had problems? Have used Feedback and emailed Igneous about this but yet to hear back. :cry:

Apparently the BBC know this is a problem and are in discussions with MS about it. If and ever it gets fixed is another problem though. BBC suggest as a workaround that you can listen to iPlayer Radio using the browser. Well you can but only if you stop the phone locking as that way it is...

The latest version of the OneDrive app is failing to install on my Lumia 820 running WP8.1 with error code 80073cf9. Looking at the recent feedback for this app I see that many others are also getting this problem. I have tried power-cycling the phone and soft-resetting the phone to no avail...

Why does the Podcast Lounge app on my Lumia 820 running W8.1 use so much wi-fi data? Since switching to using this app my average monthly wi-fi usage on my phone has shot up from around 3/4GB a month to 140GB a month!!! The Data Sense app confirms that it is Podcast Lounge which is the...

Just switched to used Podcast Lounge last week and while I am generally happy with it, it is annoying that it does not seem to be purging the old episodes as per the settings. Am I doing something wrong? Running it on a Lumia 820 with WP8.1.

Since the BBC messed around with its podcast service earlier this year a number of their podcasts I subscribe to no longer display the artwork in my preferred i Podcast app but they show up in the native Podcasts app. Is there anyway of refreshing this? I am thinking the app is thinking that...

On occasion in the past I have found audio has stopped working (music not playing, alarms not going off etc) and had to turn the phone off and on again to get it working again. Today it happened again but I stopped and thought that, hang on, I had been using Bluetooth last night to play a...

... the design of the clamp arms which invariably cover or make difficult to use some of the buttons and ports on the edge of the phone. I was wondering if anyone has put any thought into a design that uses clamp arms which hold the phone by the corners only? I was thinking of having the...

Just got myself one of these Aukey Wireless Charger Charging Pad with Built-in: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics which is a combined power pack / wireless charger. Cannot only be used as a powerpack to charge you device wirelessly or via USB but as a regular wireless charging pad plugged in...

Have an original Nokia 900 charging pad which seems to be the only one I have tried which does the job properly: Charges it up then keeps it on trickle charge (I have just used a watch display box and some black sticky tape to convert this into a charging stand but that is bye the bye). This...

iPodcast search not working Any attempt to search for podcasts in the iPodcast app shows up nothing. Not sure how long it has been like this (last searched OK a few weeks back I think). Any ideas anyone?
