Any one...

    Battery life has plummeted since last OS update

    Yes did a soft reset but no joy. Don't want to do reload as some of the apps are no longer available for download.

    Battery life has plummeted since last OS update

    Since the last update battery life has more than halved. Swapped out the battery to a known good one still exactly the same result. Happened the same day as last OS update and no other changes to the phone, so points squarely at the update or an app related to the update.

    Is this Andromeda Revealed? Copper Harbour

    I suspect its a bit like King Canute trying to hold back the tide. The idea is so mainstream now with Samsung and now even INTEL flipping the idea and prototypes out, it sought of becomes inevitable that a dual screen folding phone will be in our pockets or hands within the next year to 2...

    Is Wechat really gone?

    As an interesting aside to all this, now that I have 2 identical phones to choose from when it comes to backup and reload MS does not give you individual detail on each phone so that you know which backup to choose when using the back up to reload your phone. First time I did the reload to the...

    Is Wechat really gone?

    Reviving an old thread here Just purchased a second 950XL Dual Sim to act as a backup for my existing (and working well) 950XL dual sim. Did a backup install of the current 950XL and all went very well BUT no WeChat :cry: just says there is an error and is greyed out on the tile for it...

    What the heck is 16212.1000.rs_iot.170531-1800 (UUP-CTv2)

    WTF, 20 people my ar*e, was waiting for my wife to respond to me on WeChat at midnight last night only to find that my phone had bricked itself due to this new FU from Microsoft. Took me several hours to get the phone running again using the WDRT . Even the godd@med MS cloud based back up file...

    Elite X3 as a consumer phone?

    The fact that it has a decent functional well thought out dock and real speakers sells it to me as a consumer item
