    screen freeze

    hold volume down and lock button altogether for about 10 - 15 seconds and your phone will do a soft reset. That way you don't need to wait for it to run out of battery.

    Lumia 620 stops responding.

    no. i can confirm that 620 has the tendency to freeze up and not response in hot areas. On sunny days when I put my phone in my pocket and ride my bike around under the hot sun, my phone usually does so. I have no solution for this problem though.

    Cortana is predicting the FIFA matches.

    All her predictions have been precise so far, including Argentina's victory over Switzerland and that of Belgium over the US :) I've got to say that I am impressed. Sent from my RM-846_apac_vietnam_203 using Tapatalk

    Why Cortana?

    And I love how Indigo is integrated with Wolfram Alpha. Every question comes back with a spoken answer. I'll be overjoyed if Cortana is able to do the same in the future. Sent from my RM-846_apac_vietnam_203 using Tapatalk

    Why Cortana?

    ...and Indigo's been around for a year, if I remember correctly. I like all about Indigo but the robotic voice. Being greeted by that emotionless voice seems...dull to me. Though I mostly use Cortana, I still keep Indigo for reference. And oh, Indigo seems to have a crap load of jokes. Everytime...

    It's a glorious day, Cortana now responds verbally to "Say my name bit**"

    Oh yeah. I'm kinda irritated to have to keep asking Cor to convert the freaking temperatures to Celsius, too. Hope they will allow us to decide which unit of measurement we want soon. Sent from my RM-846_apac_vietnam_203 using Tapatalk

    Hold on now. Aren't you guys in the UK getting Cortana soon? Then, your British accents will be supported. Us Vietnamese still need to wait a little longer (by a little longer I mean opposite). Most Vietnamese can't take advantage of Cortana's features because they know little to no English, and...

    Look on the bright side, at least at encourages you to try to pronounce more correctly, which is good... ... ... Right?... Anyhoo, keep working on your pronunciation. I'm a Vietnamese and I find little difficulty bossing Cortana around :)

    Oh you got it? I know, it's still robotic, but bear in mind she's still in beta, the whole "call my name" thing is actually plain and simple text-to-speech. Maybe she will sound more natural in next updates. Cheers.

    the response for user's identity comes along with the latest Cortana update. So technically you don't have to train her anyhow. Maybe the update hasn't been rolled out to you yet.

    Lol, that cracks me up xD this is what she responds to me :)) luckily Cortana doesn't sound robotic at all reading what I make her read :))) when she pronounces Alex though, it sounds robotic as hell. Sent from my RM-846_apac_vietnam_203 using Tapatalk
