    Nokia Lumia 928 : User Reviews

    Two year update... A couple of weeks ago the earpiece quit working so phone calls have to be used on speaker phone now. I don't always get notification sounds which has been going on for a couple of months. The phone has some sort of internal rattle. Time for a new phone I guess. Kinda...

    Verizon 928 on the West Coast: Has anyone downloaded the update?

    Got an update notification last night. It did it's thing and I went to sleep. Woke up and said I could upgrade to WP8.1. I went to the gym and when I got back it was done. No hiccups. Didn't seem like a big deal as everything was pretty much the same. Got a text from Microsoft with a...

    Syncing office outlook calendar to outlook.com calendar?

    Fwiw - The google calendar sync app quit working on 8/1. rdubmu - That's great it works for you since you're on 2013....not all companies upgrade software as often as we would like. I'm on 2007 so there is no easy solution for me. I guess it's back to just remembering appointments and/or...

    Nokia Lumia 928 : User Reviews

    One year check in.... On a 1 to 10 scale I'd say it's an 8 over all. I'm using the original phone I bought and haven't had any issues. Battery still lasts 1.5 to 2 days for my use. It requires less restarts now than when I first got it. In fact, I'm not sure when the last reset needed to be...

    It would appear that the tile no longer puts your cover photo on the tile...instead, it puts the cover and profile pic of whoever caused a notification to be sent. So if someone posted after me or posted on my wall, I get a notification and I see their cover and profile on the FB tile. I guess...

    No cover photo for me either. I'm fine with "most recent" as I don't care about the "top stories" and glad it doesn't go there now. I see all posts and I have also been getting notifications. Go figure... Gotta love having a windows phone...you never know what will work and what won't! LOL

    Can get WiFi at work but not at home?

    Me too. If I restart the phone it will work for a while. No problems at home. My iPhone and Nexus have no issues connecting between the two networks. <shrug>

    Is Android Tablet APP selection is really more than Windows RT/8?

    Exactly why I bought a Nexus 7 and not a Surface RT.

    Anybody else have battery problems after the lastest OS update?

    Are you sure it's a battery issue? I have to do a reset a couple times a week because of an appearent glitch in how battery apps read the actual charge.

    Poll regarding battery life for lumia 928

    I have this issue as well. I have tried 3 different battery apps and they all do the same thing. The cure is a soft reset every few days. It's a bit irritating but I guess that is WP8. Had the phone since May.

    Latest Beta update is much appreciated. I think MS is doing a pretty good job on it actually in a relitively short timeframe. They got the multiple photo posting working and then fixed it so it takes you to the bottom of the camera roll instead of the top. Notifications is still sketchy but...

    Solution to battery drain

    I think it's the "battery" app. I don't think it's working properly and I may need to look for a different one. I'll do a soft reset and then I will get and bunch of battery life back so that leads me to believe I'm getting erronous info... Example - This morning I unplugged at 0530 and by...

    Pictures / Video taken with your 928

    Re: Pictures/Videos taken with your 928! A couple using the Nokia Pro Cam app... ProCam seems to do a good job and I like the manual controls it has. It's way better than the standard photo app that's for sure. ProShot I think is a little faster. Too bad ProShot can't be made the...

    Official LUMIA 928 GDR2/Amber Update Thread

    Bluetooth Issue

    Good to know and I'll have to try this provided I can actually get the BT to work. Recently when trying to connect my phone to my kenwood head unit, the phone will shut down and restart. I see the battery with red low level indicator even thought the battery is no where near dead. 3 or 4...

    Solution to battery drain

    You can set up your gmail account as an exchange server to push. Lot's of instructions on the web on how to do it. I went 10 days and saw about a 1%/hr battery drain. I was going two days on a charge. 3 days go I'm back to 3to4%/hr and nothing has changed other than my "Battery" app was...

    928 battery life?

    I don't know but for my use which is not heavy, I'm getting 36 or more hours per charge. Off the charger at 0600. Go to bed at 2200 and still have 60% or more. Wake up the next morning and go all that day. Hit the sack at 25% left. Almost 2 days... I'm on wifi most of the time and just text...
