Is there a way in settings or somewhere else to remove the annoying link box/window that appears when you place your cursor under a link in your email? As always, TIA.

It was. I moved app from SD Card to device and download worked. When I went back to storage to move app back to SD Card a message said publisher of app doesn't allow app to be moved. Error code reads: 0x80073d01. Many apps can't be moved to SD Card, unfortunately. Time for a phone with bigger...

version 1607. Error message reads: Error, see details. Bo details given.

I received an update notification for 'Display' when I went into the store. When I clicked update the 'Display' app did not update and I received an error alert. Any way to correct this? I'm on a L640. TIA.

I read a few articles (on Flipboard) tonight put out by the gadget press reporting that the HP x3 may be the LAST Windows Phone in a very long time or worse, ever. The articles stated that the Surface phone will be pushed out to late 2017 but possibly to 2018. If this is true I will certainly...

Thank you for the info. I didn't even notice the cellular data toggle. As it turned out, the setting was off. Best regards.

Why is it that when I'm on WI-FI at home and then leave my home the system doesn't pick-up that I'm now on data? Example: today I was at home all morning and my phone was connected to my WI-FI. Later I went to Costco to get some things. When I checked some sports and stock market stuff my phone...

"Sweeney is talking anti-trust? I wonder what his motives are to make such a claim? He may have a bone to pick about unification (I have yet to read his "compelling" take on it) but where does it get to anti-trust? Moreover, doesn't the Unreal engine run on walled-gardens like OSX and Sony's...

It'll take more time for the Windows 10 mobile platform to gain substantial ground. The other two platforms are fast in what they do because their systems are polished compared to Windows. They have a big start. After Windows 10 gets tweaked and refined I would expect things to move faster. I've...

Here's a recent Forbes article I found: Tim Sweeney: Microsoft's Universal Windows Platform Must, And Will, Die I cannot post the article's link because the site says I don't have enough posts. Strange. I thought I did. The article is dated March 4, 2016. Here's the article copied and pasted...

I would like to update my present older Lumia phone to experience the specification rich 950 XL as unfortunately the funds for me now are tight to allow me to purchase the phone. Good luck to all. Cheers.

People make a big stink for nothing. The article was designed to be a MS hit-piece and click bait. What's the big deal if Belfiore uses an iPhone? If Belfiore thinks WP sucks so what? If Belfiore uses iOS to spy and to get ideas for WP who cares? Some employees that work for Toyota drive...

Are your contacts stored on an SD card? It seems SD card storage is giving some 640 users some grief from what I've been reading here in the forum. It could be bad SD cards or software glitches. My contacts haven't vanished but any new pictures I take on my phone (from 3 weeks back) and any...

Greetings: While moving apps stored on the phone to the SD Card (San Disk 32gb, class 10, from Best Buy) I noticed, for example, apps that had 16 mb of data while on the phone go way up to some obscene amount like 100 gb on the SD Card list with the data line indicator at 100% full. I had to...

re: Lumia 640 Bugs & Defects Greetings. Long time reader. First time posting. Here are the gremlins that I'm experiencing on my 640 which I purchased through AT&T in March of 2015. All of these have started two weeks ago. The phone was flawless prior- almost a year. The bugs are both app...
