The 950XL is going for $308 on Amazon; if I'm buying a new Windows phone, I'm going for a better model.

I thought the battery issues were my phone wearing out, was looking at a replacement battery

Yeah, the phone is charged. I just got a new build on my laptop yesterday, I'll try it again when I get home

Since the latest release on the desktop, plugging my M8 into the computer results in it connecting/disconnecting in a constant loop. It starts vibrating almost constantly, and I get 3-4 popups a second by my taskbar (desktop) about connecting or disconnecting a USB device. Anyone else have this...

How are the new versions doing? I tried this when it was first posted, but had too many stability issues, and rolled back to Release Preview

Of course that's how we report issues, but MS never responds directly to the user, so we post here for discussion and possible fixes on our end. For myself, I found some old discussions from a similar issue in 2015 that were resolved by repairing system files (either with sfc/dism or by...

There were two versions of the M8 sold, one with android, one with windows. You can't switch between them on the same device, but you can upgrade the one you bought. This forum is for the windows version, and most of the conversations of late are about the latest versions of W10. There is a...

Um, why? It's irrelevant to my question. I know the builds are unstable on my device, I'm choosing to do it anyway, and I'm buying a second phone that'll be stable. My question was about the act of running two phones w/ the same account, NOT why an unsupported build of a preview branch is giving...

I mean, Redstone isn't supported on my phone (HTC One M8), so I hacked the registry to allow me to install it anyway. And as a result, it's not stable :D

My main phone is running the Insider preview builds, so it's not exactly stable. I'll soon be picking up a second device specifically for work; as I need something reliable, rather than fancy, I was thinking a low-end phone like the 735. My question is, should I create a second Microsoft account...

A few days later, the Lock Screen is actually more stable now - not sure why. However, if you have Bluetooth in your quick settings, there's a good chance that turning it OFF via the quick settings will freeze the screen for ~30seconds (turning it on has no such issue). Windows Central app...

Following the same instructions here: http://forums.windowscentral.com/htc-one-m8-windows/426772-how-install-redstone-14356-a.html I was able to successfully install 14372 on my M8. I followed that with a hard reset & restore from backup. Results so far: Battery life is better than 356. App...

Installing 14372 as I type... Think I'll try a reset after this one, just to see if it improves things.

So battery life seems a bit worse, and stability isn't acceptable for a daily driver. On the other hand, the start screen seems much more responsive. Posted from Windows Central for Windows 10

Anybody else try this? Thoughts? Stability? Issues? Posted from Windows Central for Windows 10
