    Just got my lumia 950 xl, love WP 10! Why is WP having a hard time?

    I have to agree with the article. I painfully switched to Android, away from an HP Elite X3. It is only because Microsoft is doing everything it can to shut it down. Period. Only one message of confidence and correlating actions - nothing. Microsoft, you have done this to yourself.

    Does "Hey Cortana" work on this device?

    I would guess it is only available in english. My inquiries / questions regarding the same problem for a german device have been ignored, unfortunately.

    total silence here means...

    I have to confess, for me it could be the latter. I am in my way out, after having every Nokia and then Microsoft Smartphone Flagship for so many years. It just does not cut it anymore for me. I will dip my toes onto Android waters from tomorrow with a Moto Z Play and use an S8+ as soon as it...

    How to remove eliteX3 back case?

    Indeed there is a repair manual from HP officially available. Be warned, it will not be worth it, IMO, as it is all glued. I like the idea, though ?????? Can you maybe cover up the rest?

    HP Elite x3 - SD Card disconnecting?

    Thanks for the tip, but it disconnected for me again, despite having NFC and TTP off. Just a datapoint.

    Reload some apps after reset question

    First, sorry, I did not get the part about the apps being available but not for mobile. Second, I suppose no - unsure about what would be the case, if you had the appx files...

    Reload some apps after reset question

    Really, there is nothing to do. If it is no longer in the store, you can not install it. Even if you had the xap / appx file it still needs authorization from the store. And, this has nothing to do with the X3...

    Vibration rattle

    This is not the case for me, however the vibration is not perfectly smooth for me, either. Contact HP Support, they should easily exchange it for you.

    Is the HP Elite x3 the BEST Windows Phone?

    It completely depends. To me, yes.

    Latest firmware... Fast Ring?

    DCW, in yesterdays livebugbash, Jason (@northfacehiker) szated, that we*should file feedback and send it to him. I did so. Please upvote it and send it to Jason: https://insider.windows.com/en-us/fb/?contextid=158&feedbackid=2fd51fa1-a020-4e70-ae03-ffba245c4405&form=2

    Should I buy the x3??

    I am in. If Windows Mobile does what you need and the size is right for you and camera is not a deal breaker (it is solid and even great in good light), then go ahead.

    gps/navigation on Elite x3?

    Using Sygic (for the traffic aware rerouting capability) and windows Maps - all working well. On a side note, it is beyond me, how Windows maps do not offer such a feature.

    HP Elite x3 or Lumia 950 XL?

    Same as emmeborn, I am only missing the better camera. I would miss speed, screen and the fingerprint reader, when going back. And the battery.

    Anyone gone back to their Lumia?

    I am only missing the 950/XL camera. Otherwhise, I would not want to and will not go back.
