    Just got my lumia 950 xl, love WP 10! Why is WP having a hard time?

    As an Insider I find a lot of the OS working great, however each build seems to fix a few items, but breaks a few that has been working. Talking to people working at AT&T store, I hear the App gap is the main problem why people don't want the Windows phone. It appears there are certain apps the...

    One heck of a week for W10 Mobile. What's everyone feeling?

    The Edge still works poorly dealing with links within a website. When trying to find more information on a subject on a website, good luck trying to tap on a related website link. It's not handled correctly by the browser.

    Removed features: What do you miss the most?

    Besides what was already covered, I would like to see Double Tap to wake phone, seems like if a good feature isn't caught in a build, it goes away in the next build. There is Double tap in the tool bar to close, was in only 1 build, then that to went away.

    My 950 XL still could use the volume of the ringtone increase, at times when I have the phone in my pocket as walking, I have missed calls, because I couldn't hear it. My dog is usually walking with me, and he didn't even let me know the phone was ringing. I have downloaded additional...

    BLU HD LTE 150e

    I have 150q and it's still on 14332 build, even though I didn't request to stop the builds until today. I had to reset the phone so far 3 times, and gave feedback each time. Now the Store app quit working, attempts to open, then closes right away. It's taking a couple hours to full reset the...

    Sorry, but is there a shelf life of each W10M build? Because it sure seems so.

    I know I'm testing builds, that isn't the problem, I'm seeing new builds be pushed and not receiving them on my BLU phone, where my 950 XL is receiving them. The 950 XL has received 2 new builds already that the BLU phone didn't receive. I had to reset the BLU phone twice, because of problems...

    Sorry, but is there a shelf life of each W10M build? Because it sure seems so.

    I agree the builds takes time to actually test everything, we seem to find new bugs in the software that used to work in the previous build. It's depressing when new builds come out and some of our phones don't receive them. Low phones or not, which is a shot in the arm for Microsoft, specially...

    What has happened to Windows 10m?

    I have 3 insider phones now, the nice thing is when there is a problem I can send feedback to hopefully fix the problem. Also reset the phone will fix a lot of problems, other phones one might have to take the phone into the store for a tech to fix and if it can't, a new phone maybe required...

    Double Tap to wake is gone on 950/950XL OS...

    My first insider phone was lucky enough to get the double tap to wake, since the new builds after that, I haven't seen it. I received the 950 on the next build after the one with the tap to wake. I seen on the 950 double tap to sleep, not to wake., but when my BLU phone received the newest...

    What have you done today to promote Windows Phone/Windows 10 Mobile?

    I showed my co-workers my 950 XL, with Windows 10, the advantage of having a dual SIM phone. Some people actually carry two phones, one personal and on business, with the 950 XL, they could just use the one phone. I pointed out Continuum on the phone and showed it working plugging it into a...

    Had to abandon 950xl due to software issues, how is it Now?

    The current insider build 14327 has a major problem trying to charge the battery of the 950 XL. It doesn't detect that the phone is plugged into the wall outlet or the PC. I did a factor reset, and it was charging while restoring. The next night I had the same problem, and did a soft reset and...

    W10M Insider Preview 14327 Issues (Redstone Branch)

    The 950 XL wasn't able to charge, either wall outlet or USB by the PC, I wound up doing a factory reset in order to fix the problem. Since this is the first time I had to do it, after going through several builds, figure it's something in the new build caused it. I'm glad that the 950 is a...
