    Nope. I can't recall ever using or wanting to use Notifications.

    ARM-powered Surface 4

    Sure, why not. Then they can discontinue it in 2020 at the latest.

    Did Microsoft give windows 10 mobile less time to succeed as compared to windows phone 8,8.1

    Re: Did Microsoft gave windows 10 mobile less time to succeed as compared to windows phone 8,8.1 The reason I think mobile failed is: wait for it: Satya Nadella! I don't think he's good for Microsoft.

    Asus M5A-99fx pro r2 asus pce56 wifi card in my desktop. Works fine on 15063.674 but I updated 16299.15 and now just a yellow triangle beside it in device manager. I've uninstalled reinstalled uptaed drivers and no help. Even tried another wifi card. Here's the weird thing. My shop PC has been...

    Does Lumia 950 XL have support in 2018?

    As much as I like windows phone is just not happening any more. Retrench after retrench I given up on them. If might not be real telling but I noticed the other day when updating my set aside 640xl in the app store in any windows platform apps have maybe a hundred or even a a few hundred...

    Creator Update & The Idol 4S

    What version is it? As far as I know Mobile is not getting a true Creators Update. It's still in the 15xxx correct? Alcatel needs to provide firmware updates but doubt that'll happen. Not enough sold. Bad Microsoft, bad!!!! I had a 4s and had to return it. SIM card reader stopped reading LTE...

    SWITCH to windows phone, or shouldn't I?

    Windows Phone is great and I hate to but I'm abandoning the platform. If you don't mind wondering if at any time the platform my just come a complete stop, then by all means jump in. I've waited for two years for a solid direction but none has come. I had to send my Alcatel 4S back because it...

    Biting the bullet and jumping in

    Just sent My Alcatel back. Stopped reading SIM as LTE, stopped getting internet without WIFI, head phone jack issues, stopped reading SD card. Darn, I had high hopes. :o( Guess I'll wait for something else similar to come out or maybe just make the switch to Android. Don't wanna but MS just keep...

    Biting the bullet and jumping in

    After 5 days with my new 4S here's what I think. Speed test opening things versus my 640Xl ranges from less then a second to maybe 3 seconds. Not impressed. Alcatel freezes and locks sometimes where 640Xl doesn't. Speakers are great, screen great, finger print scanner great. So far 4S hasn't...

    Biting the bullet and jumping in

    So it appears that unlike the Alcatel on android the front led on the Windows version doesn't show notifications. Just got my 4S a few days ago but also have the idol pro 3. I already miss the glance on my 640XL.

    Not the Microsoft Facebook app. It was removed a while ago.

    Biting the bullet and jumping in

    That's what I would have thought as well but even if I install Facebook by Facebook on the 640 the front is smaller then the Facebook by Microsoft app.

    Biting the bullet and jumping in

    A bit off topic I know but now that I just got my 4S I installed the Facebook app made by Facebook the font is very small compared to what it was with Microsoft's Facebook app on my 640 and 640XL. Am I missing something or does anyone else see this issue. I would like a bit larger font. All...

    Calling All Cerulean Knights to Battle

    Had the funding needed be around $200,000 then maybe. But 1 million is just a bit to much of a stretch. I'd guess he'll come up at least 1/2 million short. I was hoping for quite a different phone.

    Calling All Cerulean Knights to Battle

    This will not be the phone for me. I already have a 640 and 640XL. Considering the Alcatel 4S but hoping something or nothing happens this month that will help in my decision.
