    Win 10 Preview

    Just picked up a new 920 (unlocked AT&T) and can now compare with my 830

    Took a long time to go through all the updates, however I'm now on 8.1 Also took a long time to restore all my apps from a previous backup from my 830. Interesting as heck, the 920 is a lot "snappier" (read -> faster) than the 830, at least right now. The graphics chip in the 920 is better and...

    Capacitance keys color question

    Just picked up a 1520 (I have a L830 also). The capacitance keys on the 1520 are a cream or light yellowish brown color, is that normal ? On my L830 they are snow white, just like any whites on the screen itself. The screen colors on the 1520 are fine, match exactly the L830. Now, let's see if...

    MioSD card class on the 1520

    I had read somewhere a while ago, though can find no other source now, that the microSD card slot on the 1520 is only a 8GB Transcend (Class 4) device, so it's pretty slow and using one of the higher end, faster cards, would just be a waste of money. Anyone know for sure ? Thanks, Fred

    How to get an app to show up in "Notifications+Actions"

    Specifically Viber. Viber is working, however it's not showing up in the settings menu "Notifications+Action" so that I can set the notifications (LED, vibrate, sound, etc), for it. Looks like the other apps that are allowed to run in the background are showing up, maybe slowly, one by one...

    How to set MMS settings

    How do I set the MMS settings ? I'm trying an AT&T prepaid card, which works ok other than MMS. With another Windows phone that I have (Nokia Lumia 635), after the 8.1 update which happened as soon as I got that phone a month ago, there is a section to edit the MMS settings. I don't see that...

    2 questions regarding notifications

    1- Are there any apps (I haven't found one yet), or any way, to set different notification sounds by app. 8.1 (which the Nokia that I had) allows this, that is I can set a notification sound for Facebook, as an example, and a different notification sound for Viber, etc. 2 - Are there any apps...

    Store seems not to know me, wants me to repurchase apps

    I've had 2 Nokia Lumia phones before (635 and 925), through AT&T. When I got the 2nd one (the 925) and set it up, it prompted me if I wanted to restore from my OneDrive account (I had previously backed up my apps and text with the 635). I just got a Samsung ATIV SE (from Verizon) and when I...
