Find My Phone does appear to be running slower than before. They mave have moved it onto Office 365 infrastructure and still having some issues. It does eventually email and say its found your phone but when you click through the email it still takes an age to pinpoint it on the map.. I hope...

Sadly I thought the 'Find My Phone' website for Windows devices would be able to unlock your device. Unfortunately it only does Ring, Lock, Erase options. Look like the backup and OneDrive is your only save and grace. Might be able to do it via the Windows Phone Interop Tools - never tried...

Currently awaiting the return of my 930 from Microsofts Hong Kong repair centre. I sent my 930 back to the online reseller (Hong Kong based) for repair and explained symptoms at length. They have said it is now repaired. Has been 'shockingly' over 30 days since I sent it, am I annoyed? yes...

How goes the Windows Phone experiment? Found anymore blockers??

1) Waiting on price drop, simfree and/or carrier tariff options. 2) Dual-sim variant required, not seeing much availability in UK. My 930 serving me well for now until 950 price drops. I upgrade then pass my old Lumia to the wife... (win,win!)

In response to Rogarth I suggest you delve a bit deeper into the Windows Central app as the Live Tile does support article pics and the is a section on each article that provides weblinks. Try swiping left and right when in article view. Plus, go into 'Settings' to configure Live Tile fully.

itguyjax8430 When my phone finally arrives I am going to update it to 10 before I start to set it up. I'll make sure to reset it after the update just to clear out the cob webs. I would still give Windows Phone 8.1 a try for a few days then move to Windows 10 Mobile - that way you can see the...

itguyjax8430 With the Facebook app do you prefer the app or is it easier to just use the mobile web version? Unlike most people am not a Facebook user, so can't comment on how good or bad the apps or web version is. I merely look at odd posts via the wifes Facebook page.
