I have had this issue for a couple days with every single new build. The same fixes don't work every time, and I've been seriously considering rolling back to 8.1.1 between this and Cortana now being mostly useless.

Helpful. Lol. This one's been fixed, actually. My phone curses like a sailor now. 😁

I would imagine they didn't include both because it would unnecessarily bloat the retail cost, and likely also the size, of the device. I mean, really; you're still unlocking your service in a moment without entering a pin or password or something else that people could see, enabling them to...

Re: Build 10536 how do you like it? I'm on a Lumia 830. It seems pretty stable so far... (less than 48 hours) My techiest friend, who is running the same build on the same phone, showed me the new forward facing features like replying to toasts, etc, and how fast his phone if now, and I decided...

One of my coworkers went from the HTC One M7 to the M8, and now he has the Samsung Galaxy S6, and he wants Windows on his next phone. He's been asking me about the Lumia 635 and saying he might buy one. I'm also seeing then in the wild more frequently these days. Anecdotally, I would conclude...

I've tried all the 8.1 methods of teaching my keyboard to swear on Windows 10 Mobile, and it's just not happening. Is this not yet possible? Any tips?

Something is obviously wrong with it, so exchange it.

Ok that is a big problem for me, as my phone doubles as my only alarm clock. Can anyone else confirm experiencing these issues with the alarm app? Maybe try a third party alarm app? I'm interested to know if the problem persists... I get up very early for work.

I have 5 friends in my town of 30,000 people that are on WP. 3 of them have a black Lumia 830 just like mine. The other two have the Samsung Ativ S, just like my last phone. I sold it to my ex-wife. So I know 6 people in total that have WP. ;P

Not on the Lumia 830.. The only roaming drop-down menu her and I have (we have the same device) is for data.

I have a very dear friend who recently went from a Sony Xperia to a Lumia 830 on my recommendation. She is currently on vacation in Niagara, Ontario, Canada and the phone keeps hopping onto US cell towers. She doesn't have a data plan, so the one part I know how to help her with is useless to...

The sole reason Google apps don't exist for Windows Phone is because Google doesn't want them to. Maybe if enough WP users who still use Google services email the Google bigwigs about this matter, they will realize the only thing they are accomplishing is the alienation of their users. Maybe...

I don't use glance, as the entire IPS display would be on all the time, and I imagine the battery life would take a pretty substantial hit because of it. I never need to take the cover off, but the expandable storage is extremely helpful to me; I have a little bit over 39gb of just music stored...

For many people this is a pretty heavy day. All those pictures and video with that powerful camera, the gaming... There are millions of modern smartphone flagship owners that would be thrilled to get that far on a battery that size. But I do feel Nokia should have been able to wedge a larger...
