    Cannot pin anything from Groove anymore

    I used to be able to pint playlists, artists, etc to Start from Groove. Cannot do this anymore. The option is there, but it just gives an error. Anyone know how to resolve this? Or is there an alternate music player that allows me to pin artists, albums, genres, or playlists to start...

    What's the point?

    Like DRDiver, I too am not sold on VR, but I think the applications for leisure and productivity are ENDLESS for wearable AR like HoloLens. I'll bet HoloLens version 5 will be unbelievable by then. But the proof of concept (which is what version 1 really is) really shows it's potential.

    p20 pro

    The thing is, it's not just faces. Clothing and hair lack texture, and anything that is a challenge to noise reduction algorithms are just REALLY bad. Don't get me wrong, I love Huawei and I love how they are pushing boundaries bigger companies aren't, but I just don't think this camera is one...

    Cortana on Windows PC, I get SMS notifications, reply feature not working

    I found this on a search. I have had problems with Android and texting since day 1 of going android. I cannot send texts from my Windows 10 computers while using an android phone. Doesn't work through Cortana, doesn't work in the action centre. It's driving me nuts. Worked no problem on W10...

    Who of us still with 1020 as the only and main phone?

    I would, but my battery just cannot hold a charge anymore, and I dropped it so many times that I actually bumped one of the lenses out of calibration, so one side of my photos are no longer clear.

    p20 pro

    I've spent the last hour and a half looking over the same pics in the DxO P20 Pro review and it's just super apparent to me that the p20 isn't anywhere CLOSE to the same league as the 1020. It's actually quite a bit worse than I initially thought. I'm sorry, it's just not even close. The...

    Why does Edge suck so bad

    been using Edge since its release. have no problems with it anywhere. I do find it's actually faster than Chrome, and friendlier on the battery. I think many of the people here are more like power users, and will nitpick at tiny little details. I use browsers much like the vast majority of the...

    MS trying to shove Edge down peoples' throats

    I use Edge, I don't use the mail app. So this really doesn't bother me at all personally. but practically, I don't like it when anyone is forced into anything.

    Need some advice / help please.

    I miss the old days of gaming too. despite all the new graphics and stuff, I don't find games any more fun today than they were 30 plus years ago. actually in fact, I find modern games to be less fun. still have my 30 year old NES and we still play it. I would go Nintendo if you want to play...

    Do you prefer in-your-face or understated gaming gear?

    I'm into all black. Flat or satin black. Hate all that light up crap and wacky designs to make everything look like a Lamborghini. I tried to make my machine as understated as possible... but the damn video card ruined it. That and the RAM I wanted didn't have Black in stock. Oh well. I...

    Soo... About those Android Launchers

    When I first moved to android, I initially used the Microsoft Launcher. But a couple weeks ago, like dlchome, I now use Squarehome 2. It doesn't have all the functionality of REAL live tiles, but I don't think any launcher can fully duplicate the beautiful Live Tiles of Winbdows. But...

    What phones are you thinking of switching to?

    I've gone a different direction than most I think. I've been really disheartened with the behavior and priorities of MS lately. I have Galaxy phones and iPhones but neither just "get it right" like windows does. So I've kinda given up on the whole smartphone thing. I've taken this as an...

    Review: UGREEN USB-C USB-A miniscule flash drive for both your phone and PC

    Here's a quick review of the UGREEN USB-C/A flash drive. With modern phones and even tablets and laptops sporting a USB-C port, we are living in a transitional period where both type C and A are relevant, and important. The trouble comes when you want to move data between devices, but one is...

    Review: WRAPS Talk Wristband Headphones

    So I received a set of Wraps Talk Wristband Headphones, as they call it. Though I call them earbuds as I consider headphones to be over-ear. The idea of these is to combine fashion with function by making them wearable around your wrist, and making the cord more stylish than a plastic coated...

    Reminisce of a good time you had with Windows 10 Mobile.

    No great times to reminisce about with W10M; it's been a rocky ride. TONS of great memories with WP8 though. Too many to even start. :(
