Hey Guys, Just wanted to give my "fix" so far for my random restarts. I noticed that I experienced much like what others were getting on their phone. Freezing, Green screens, etc. The trend I noticed was that I was usually getting a random restart when a notification comes in. Specifically, I...

I have the same issue. I think it's a known issue, as people on Feedback Hub have the same problem. Guess we have to wait for a fix overall. Interesting enough, if you go to NFC area in the settings it still references your Cards. Rather strange.

I saw some similar issues after the firmware update on mine. What you might want to try is disabling Connected Standby. Do this by going into regedit and changing the following. I haven't done it yet post firmware, but I'm going to do it again, since I had done this before the firmware update...

You guys are lucky. I have the i5 dGPU at 256gb and I average 5-6 hours in normal usage such as web browsing and word :( Would love to see that 12 hours pop up doing that

Glad to hear that you're enjoying it so far! In terms of the Sim stuff, you can't really get rid of SIM2, unfortunately, but there is a way to rename the SIMs so that they have a name instead of SIM 1. I changed mine so that it shows AT&T. Just search for SIM in the Settings app and select SIM...

Did you try manually changing CC to the dGPU in the Nvidia Control Panel (if you have it)?

Would you look at that... The Beta Intel Drivers have the same build number as the newly released MS 12/2/15 Skylake drivers out today :winktongue: Looks like if we want a preview of Intel fixes for our Surface Books, we look to install the Beta drivers when provided

Same here, and unfortunately, I think it's a server side bug that we can't do anything about. Here's my theory. https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9nblggh2srtp Download that app and set it up. If you notice, you're messages will start loading in the same manner the phone did. And if you're...

Thanks for the insight Mick! I wonder how different the Iris chips are compared to the standard Intel HD. Seems like to be some pretty major issues. You can't role back to standard MS drivers?

So I had a pretty awesome thought after I had recently bought a car and was researching into upgrading my entertainment deck. Some cars are having infotainment systems that actually have Miracast support on them. That, or a video input for HDMI. Since Windows Phone will not likely get an...

Same exact issue here. Anybody find a way to address it? I don't want to hard reset my phone, I apparently learned I have over 350 apps installed over the years of Windows Phone, and it took a ridiculous amount of time to restore my backup :(

Not much, I just like fiddling with some settings. There was also some stuff on other threads about disabling some multisampling stuff, but I didn't notice a difference.

Cygnus, I'd like to keep this thread for discussion about the Beta Intel drivers. If you would like to speak of your complaints about the Surface Book, I respectfully request you go on the other big thread about how Microsoft needs to fix the Surface Book.

I had something similar when I was fiddling with the Wifi drivers. I ended up having this weird connection bug where if I went to a new place and woke my Book from sleep it would still think it's connected to my last network and I would have to turn on airplane mode and back off to get it to...

Not necessarily. From my observations, there was a day when my battery life was 3 hours for the whole battery. On this day, I was using just Edge with constant display driver crashes. This was before the first firmware update that fixed the color issues and the flickering. However, before said...
