    WiFi no automatically Connecting to known netbooks (home & work).

    I tend to have these problems with my Nook and typically I resolve them by rebooting my phone and on occasion turning the wifi off and on on the other deivce. Don't know if this is a known issue but it happens regular enough to me that it should be. Sometimes when I go to turn on internet...

    Is this phone really too big?

    Seriously? This phone isn't even close to some of the others out there in size (Lumia 1520, Note II, Samsung Mega, LG Optimus, etc.). This phone may seem "big" to those coming from something such as an iPhone, but I don't see as big at all. If anything, I think people might be more concerned...

    Hotspot Issue

    I suspect it may be some kind of compatability issue with the BT I have connected as well. I turned it off and so far it seems to be better

    Hotspot Issue

    Fairly often I will go into the hotspot to turn it on and it will simply hang and time out when trying to start. I have to reboot the phone to get it to work again which is does right away. I also find the phone will freeze up on occasion requiring a hard reset to get it to reboot. The 920 has...

    Old Question revisited

    I haven't seen anything on this recently so let me ask again just to be sure. Is there NO way to delete a lot of emails other than going thru and checking each one?

    Returned my 1020

    I think that statement is WAY to broad. I would not assume you should get through an entire day as it totally depends on what you're doing. I can guarantee you you'll be lucky to get thru half a day if you have HotSpot enabled or are watching videos all day and maybe while we're at it we should...

    Returned my 1020

    I'd go for defective as well. My phone will generally last from about 5:00 am til sometime into the evening. That's with the screen brightness up at MAX (tired old eyes) and wifi and bluetooth running all the time as well. My actual usage is relatively moderate/average but I read that the...

    this phone feels/looks too good for a case

    No case for me. I love the look of it as is and I hate covering it up with stuff that will only detract from it. I don't use screen protectors either. I've never had problems with anything. Never drop or otherwise damage it either. Very happy with it.

    How to take incredible photos with the Nokia Lumia 1020

    I think that was just a case of poor wording on his part. Maybe what he "should" have said is no matter how good the camera, there is way more to taking a great shot than good equipment. He almost makes it sound like you can take a gerat shot with ANY camera but I wouldn't go quite that far. I...

    Is this worth the off contract price?

    While there isn't a native Instagram app, there is an app out now called 6tag which allows you to post and see pics in Instagram. It may not have Google maps but I think Here Maps is actually pretty decent. lets face it, unless you actually get an Android phone, you'll have to give a little in...

    Is this worth the off contract price?

    Not sure if this would be an option for you but there is an Audible WP app and they have podcasts. The app works great too. Audio books play flawlessly and the live tile works perfectly. Just a thought.

    Is this worth the off contract price?

    I'm sure everyone has their own answer to that. Buying any phone outright is a lot of money I guess but if you consider it really is like a mini computer in your hand maybe not so much. What I CAN tell you is that I felt exactly as you did. I had the S4 for my two week trial and just before that...

    Hi... New Lumia 1020 user!

    What's not to like? I'm always keeping my eyes open for a cool shot (I don't like to take pictures of every little thing). You can check out some pics of mine on Instagram (ConnieL429). Not a lot on there yet as I said, I only take "good" shots. Aside from the camera though, WP8 is by far the...

    Hi... New Lumia 1020 user!

    I've had my Lumia 1020 for about 6 days now and I am totally glad I decided on this over the Galaxy S4. Nothing against it but I'm having a lot of fun with this camera and I STILL love these WP8 Live Tiles. The colors just jump out at you on this phone (L920 too). The OS is smooth and polished...
