    Running it on a 640 LTE, actually seems to have stabilized after being installed for 24 hours, still get loading or resuming occasionally.

    8.1 update 1 DP - Battery Drain Still an Issue?

    This is odd. DP 8.1 without cyan my 1520s battery life was horrible. Cyan + official release restored the battery back to almost 2 days of life per charge. And I've installed the DP 8.1 update 1, seeing currently 4 hours since charge, 87%, and 1 day 10 hours remaining.

    Ok, I'm curious is anyone has backstepped a 1520 to trigger cyan, then gotten back on the DP for gdr. If so, hows the battery life?

    Can someone with cyan and 8.1 gdr 1 preview chime in? Because cyan addressed the drain issues from the 8.1 preview.

    8.1 update 1 DP - Battery Drain Still an Issue?

    I'm curious about this as well, if the phone is updated with cyan, which fixed the battery issue with 8.1, is it going to happen again.

    Removing some bloatware

    The only thing you really can't uninstall is the OS apps. Any carrier installed app can be removed.

    Using Cortana with Ford Sync

    I do have MFT, and by sync I meant more the Bluetooth playback. But it does show me artist and album info.
