I got lucky, I took out the SIM card (but connected via Wi-Fi), set the date and time manually. Let it sit for 10-30 minutes, then set it back to "Set date and time automatically", again let it sit 10-30 minutes then check for an update. Only then the update came down. After it was installed I...

Digging up an old thread... I just wanted to say: THANK YOU!!! I got an old MetroPCS Lumia 640 LTE and I have been struggling trying to find a way to get W10M installed. I re-flashed so many English variants that didn't work I lost track of where I was. I never thought of trying a Latin...

I finally got around to installing it. It was a bit nerve racking because of all the warnings of "might loose data". Also there are a lot of steps required to get it done. I just followed them exactly and it went through (even had to do the extra reboots that they warned about in the...

You might have a bad type cover. Mine died a year ago. No matter what I tried my SP3 just wouldn't recognize it. I finally scheduled time at the MS store techs. We played around with my SP3 and the type cover for quite awhile, nothing worked. The tech was about to go grab a replacement SP3...

Well... MS put the GUI changes in the wrong order. They should have done the W10 GUI first, as a transition from XP. Then brought out the W8 GUI. Then they could compete against the iPad. Also they wouldn't have alienated users and programmers as much. But hindsight is always 20/20

Another SP3 user. I use the touch screen 99% of the time. I've gotten so used to it, that when I have to use someone else's computer I always reach up and touch the screen, only to be frustrated when I realize that it isn't a touch screen. I have to admit that it does take some time to get used...

I live 99% of the time in tablet mode on my SP3. I use the pen quite a bit for quick sketches, some text input. But when I know I'm going to have to write quite a bit, I'll go back to desktop with the keyboard. I really do miss the W8.1 version over the W10 implementation. I've always said the...

It JUST came down for me.

Still waiting for it to show up on my system....

It's still nice to have with Bluetooth headsets and speaker systems.... :wink:

I've actually had it replaced twice from MS. No change.

I have to say, my 650 is the most fickle phone for connectivity (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cell data) of all the phones I've worked with. I have factory reset several times. Reboot constantly. I am not sure if it's the chipset in the phone, or a driver issue. The Wi-Fi, gets stuck in low signal...

Dan, Do you think Microsoft will eventually enable the Android version of Cortana to "Read incoming text messages aloud" and let us verbally respond to the messages via Bluetooth or wired headsets (like in Windows Mobile)? If not, have you found a solid Android app that has the same...

I tried Android (Moto G4+) for 3-4 months. AAAARRRRGGGHHH!!!! Drove me nuts. I put all the Microsoft apps on it and it just wasn't as easy to use as my L650. So I went back to my L650. The main reason was Text messaging: Text->speech/speech->text via Bluetooth. I get a lot of texts while...

You earn point also on W10M with Edge/Cortana too!! Weird that mine maxes out at 200 points and yours doesn't. I'm a "Level 2". Now here is the weird one that I had to go thru MS support to understand... "Edge Bonus" points... You can get UP TO those points a day using Edge, only AFTER you max...
