    Turning a picture to B&W with WP photo app?

    re: Turning a picture toB&W with WP photo app? Try Black. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/apps/black/9wzdncrfj022 :smile:

    Imgur app.

    Thanks for the suggestion but I've tried that and it only lets you upload images, not view the site or comments. Of the Imgur apps in the store it appears that Grin is the best, which doesn't say much about the rest. I'm going to try using the mobile site and see how that goes.

    Imgur app.

    Is there a better imgur app than Grin? I've been using Grin for years but it hasn't been updated in forever, it doesn't play all gif posts and it crashes a lot.

    Insider preview on 950xl

    I'm getting a 950xl tomorrow and wondering if it's worth enrolling it on the Insider Preview of leaving it as it comes out of the box. I've been on the insider on my 1520 for a while and the latest build is working ok. Now the insider builds have been split between devices I'm worried that the...

    Build 14267 Cold booting on SP3

    Same problem with this build on my laptop. Initial boot gets me to the windows logo and stops. I have to hard shutdown and restart before windows loads. Even then it takes over a minute to completely boot.

    Win a Lumia 950 XL from Windows Central!

    First time entering one of these competitions. Good luck to everyone. I'd like to win because my 1520 is failing, it doesn't recognise SD cards, the front camera doesn't work and neither does the down volume button. :(

    IE11 Favourites erased. Build 11099.rs1_release.160109-1156

    Has anyone else had all their favourites erased from Internet Explorer using the latest build? I've left feedback and at least one other person has the same problem. My favourites are still available in Edge but there doesn't seem to be a way to import from Edge to IE. I've tried the Import and...

    Language packs for build 10547.

    To be honest I don't understand why new language packs have to be released every time a new build is released; I mean how much can change from one release to the next? Still, putting that aside, why is it taking so long to release them this time? Especially the UK (English) one, all they need...

    Why is Groove Music deleting tracks on my laptop and on OneDrive?

    Groove Music is deleting tracks on my laptop and on OneDrive. Ever since the app updated to Groove Music I've been having problems with random tracks disappearing. I have 156 Gb of music on my laptop and in order to share it with my other devices I added it to OneDrive but whenever I open...

    Ok, just after posting this thread I got the option to download a Language Pack, which wasn't there before, that has fixed my problem. :)

    Cortana not available on my laptop. Build 10240.

    I'm in the UK and I've been able to activate Cortana on every TP build since MS enabled her but since updating to 10240 I'm being told "I'm afraid I'm not available to help in your region" whenever I click on the Search icon. I have my Region, Language, Speech Settings and Time-Zone set to...

    My 1520 has become an embarrassment. :(

    Sorry I haven't replied sooner but I appear to have fixed the problems with my phone. All it took was a(nother) screen replacement! I replaced the screen a few months ago but never connected the problems to the replacement, however after having to replace the screen again this week the problems...

    They promise 2 years.. Why not die already with such a terrible message?

    It's situations like this that have led win phone to this point in the first place. When Microsoft pull stunts like this they never explain things clearly which leads to speculation and rumour and negative press. They must be reading the articles and blogs stating the demise of Windows Phone so...
