    Why is MSFT making it so difficult here in the USA to buy a 950XL?

    I've been interested in the 950XL ever since it was rumored. Now with the office announcement of it coming next month it looks like the only place to buy it here in the USA is the Microsoft Store. Initially AT&T will be the only carrier to sell the 950, but not the 950XL. What are they thinking...

    Windows 10 preview on daily driver phone?

    I'm using a 635 as my everyday phone and tried almost ever Win10 build but had too many problems until 10512. I did a clean install of 8.1 using the Windows Phone Recovery Tool, then installed Windows Insider which upgraded 8 then to 10.10512. After about a week my voice service acted up so I...

    Where is my Google Mail?

    I've been trying the Win10 builds on a 635, despite what I keep reading from MSFT I don't think it will run well on this limited device. Most features run well but once I setup my Gmail it loads all my mail, contacts and calendar but after that it won't sync. I've tried 1066 twice and the same...

    Where is my Google Mail?

    All mail on Windows 10 is in Outlook. But, with this build you can create your Gmail account but it won't sync. You will get your mail after setting it up but you won't get any new mail.

    I've thrown in the towel on Windows 10 Mobile....

    for now. Ever since the screen on my Galaxy Note 2 splintered my Lumia 635 has become my everyday device. I've tried pretty much every Win 10 build and each one has its own faults. I really thought by now many of the issues would have been fixed but build 10166 still falls short of being an...

    Save me from going iPhone? Future of Windows phone, etc.

    I am feeling the same way. As much as I won't want to go over to the Dark Side it seems that MSFT is giving me no choice. Since Apple usually releases a new iPhone in the fall and Windows 10 mobile is supposed to be released then along with a new flagship device I am going to wait and see the...

    Unable to upgrade to build 10166 WinX Mobile

    It sounds like your only option it to use the Windows Phone Recovery Tool and go back to 8.1 and start over. This will give you a good clean install of a solid build, 10166.

    Looking for an email client to receive Gmail.

    Does anyone know of a decent email client, preferably without ads, that I can use with Win 10 mobile to get my Gmail? With the release of 10166 my Gmail will not sync once it is installed.

    Windows Phone users age group

    I am by no means a youngster and don't look for the coolest gadgets. I am on Facebook but only with family and don't spend much time there. Never took to Twitter but have an account. Never used Snapchat. I played Candy Crush when the recession was still upon us but now that business is back I...

    Getting the People Live Tile to work on Mobile Build 10166

    Mine has worked from the beginning. I didn't upgrade from another build, I went from 8.1 to 10.10166. So far my only issue with 10166 is Gmail won't sync.

    Reasons to move from Android to WP?

    I've been an Android user since Feb 2013 and when Microsoft announced their Win 10 plans for mobile I considered switching over to Windows phone since I'm a big Windows user (work desktop, Surface Pro 3, several desktops and laptops at home). Earlier this year I purchased a Lumia 635 for $30 to...
