I got my new 650 yesterday to replace my 830, which developed some quirks (restarting every time I put it down on a desk/table, etc.)
I've never had such a difficult phone EVER. I'm seriously thinking of returning it. This is my 4th Lumia. It shouldn't be this hard.
I can't get Cortana to work. Every time I ask it to add something to my calendar, it says my settings need to be changed to give it permission. HOW? All the settings I see are fine - when I go into the settings in Cortana itself, when I click on read my texts - bluetooth it then just moves me from that screen into a general settings screen and when I go back nothing was changed in Cortana. I'm going around in circles.
I've already had to upgrade the software so that I could get ground-breaking features like the doubletap to unlock.
Had to reactivate speech recognition for texts, even though that was activated out of the box, before the update.
Spent an hour this morning getting my email notifications to work again.
WHY IS IT SO HARD?
Can someone please help me with Cortana - what on earth settings do I need to mess with to make it work? It says location history must be on, but I can't see that an an option ANYWHERE.
Thank you.:crying:angry:
