GDR3 Preview is LIVE!

[Snapperlicious]

I'd like some clarification on attaching office files from someone who's updated to GDR3. Im still on GDR2, and can already attach an (1) office document + photos if I start from the office hub. Is it true the "attach" icon in email still only allows photos only? Can you bring up the multi tasking menu, go back to the office hub, and hold share on another document to attach it to the same email? I'm trying to figure out how MS is introducing this as a new feature, when I've been able to send documents from the office hub since Vanilla WP7 :/

Yes it is true. If you click the paperclip icon, you are immediately presented with the "choose picture" screen, and I don't see a way to select anything else other than pictures.

I am unable to use multi-tasking to add docs from the office hub to an email that I have drafted. If I click share as an example, it always starts a new message rather than adding it to the message I already had open.

Just registered as a developer, unlocked my 1020, checked for updates x 15...nothing.. BAH! 20 dollahs down the drain. why oh why:O

I didn't have to do neither of that to get my update... You need to read everything before you do something buddy. All I did was sign up for App Studio for free and download and run the preview app and then check for updates, voila!

Under Bluetooth, there's now also an option to "Connect in a different way to use Speech with Bluetooth in my car".

What kind of car do you have?

I don't think so. If there is, then probably apps need updates to benefit from that. There aren't any apps on market that lets you choose a tone and set it as text or email tone, the way we have for ringtones.

Once it finishes downloading, I'm gonna get to know how to use it and know all its features, and will publish a video on YouTube about it on my channel.

I?LL just leave this here... Announcing our third Windows Phone 8 update

Support for bigger, higher-resolution screens

So the new update paves the way for future Windows Phone devices with 5- and 6-inch touch screens. The larger, 1080p HD displays on these devices will make Windows Phone even more personal—for example by sporting jumbo-sized Start screens with room for six Live Tiles across instead of four.

fcuk yeah! Now im one of the cool guys!

They reported earlier this invalidates your warranty. Is that true?
Does it just invalidate the default limited warranty or also the extended MS Assure accidental coverage as well?

 

[tk-093]

The said it could void your warrenty, not that it would.

You can't get apps in this region. You can check the Windows Phone Store in your home region to see if the app is available there. baaah
edit: I got it now
