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

    What am I feeling you ask: Abandoned, lonely, forgotten, betrayed, let down, disappointed, rejected, ripped off, mislead .... Having been a uber loyal Blackberry fan for 10+ years and then abandoned, I am now having the same feelings as I had with BB. I switched from BB to MSFT and in some...

    Universal search

    I need to search my calendar for events often. As well need to search for files, notes, emails ... on my phone. I truly miss the BBRY universal search that with a single search it would find everything on your phone. I was expecting this to be available with Cortana but sadly it is not...

    Texting from Cortana on PC via Windows 10 Mobile?

    Public version definitely can. I missed a cell call and to my shock I got a mesage on my Surface. I replied back and my 950xl successfully sent a txt. And Cortana on my Surface and 950xl informed me txt was sent. And I confirmed with recipient that the txt successfully sent. I was blown...

    Why is my (white) Lumia 950 back cover is creaking

    For me it eventually goes away. I think the polycarbonate back adjusts with heat and such and the creak for me eventually disappears.

    Really wish the single SIM version of this phone was an option on release day.

    My carrier Telus doesn't support vvm on my Passport even though I get vvm with my T-Mobile sim when in the us. I suspect they don't offer it for WP. I too wished I could get it. Maybe another WP Telus user can confirm whether they offer vvm for WP.

    Insteon at Costco

    I received a reply to my email. They are working on a universal app and it is a few weeks away from being available. Sweet! I was told in the mean time that the W8.1 version will work on W10 desktop and tablets.

    What has microsoft done for you in 2015?

    Agreed. Which is why I may not upgrade my HTPC to W10. I will be installing MediaPortal along side WMC and if I can get it working in an acceptable manner I may upgrade. Installation, configuration and getting the epg working on MP looks a bit daunting.
