    I like it so far....mostly

    Knowing this was a first generation device I tried to keep my expectations low in spite of my excitement. I've missed Windows phones since I had to move on from my Lumia 1520. Since then I have mostly had Pixel phones. I like the pure Android without replicated apps or bloatware. I was...

    Is Andromeda likely cancelled as the rumours say?

    I hope it still happens. I really want off of the Google ecosystem no matter the cost. (With the exception of going to Apple. I'll pay through the nose but I will not sell my soul.)

    Firmware Update and W10 AU now live

    Mine has been very weird. About two hours after I posted the screenshot yesterday it was there but I had to set it up again. I had done it when I installed the update. After I set it up it wasn't responding to Hey Cortana locked or unlocked. No joy after a couple of reboots either. After...

    Did we lose Hey Cortana with this update?

    Win a Lumia 950 XL from Windows Central!

    I'd love to see how it compares to my 1520 with W10 loaded.

    Using Hey Cortana bypasses PIN and iris scanning

    I just had several people try to unlock by saying Hey Cortana but it didn't work for any of them. Secure enough I guess.

    Using Hey Cortana bypasses PIN and iris scanning

    If I use Hey Cortana when the screen is locked it completely bypasses the PIN and iris scanner and leaves the phone unlocked after Cortana answers my query. Security flaw? I do have Cortana set for my voice only.

    Lack of recent high end devices. (Just in case nobody else has whined about that here too. :P)

    Why isn't my phone microphone working after updating to Denim?

    Having the same issue on my 1520. So far I have: Done soft and hard resets (with and without restoring data/settings) Used the Lumia recovery tool to roll back developer preview updates and the mic worked until Denim was installed again Like others Cortana hears me on headphones or Bluetooth...

    Microsoft lumia 1530

    I just wish they would announce some kind of upgrade to the 1520. I still love mine and it is working great but I also get bored easily and look for a new device to play with often. I'd hate to have to go back to Android to scratch that itch.

    Been getting crazy battery life since installing 8.1

    The discharge speed has been coming down (had the app for a while so the average doesn't change quickly) for a couple of weeks now since I had a WiFi issue that was eating battery up. That seems to be resolved and I have been going 2-3 days without needing to recharge. To be fair I am not a...

    Developer Preview 8.1 Bugs and Defects Thread

    Re: [Official] Windows Phone 8.1 Bugs and Defects Thread Not sure if it is a bug or not but this morning (after installing 8.1 yesterday) the headphone jack was not working. The phone was not recognizing it when headphones were connected. For grins and giggles I did a reset and it worked.
