    should we be worried about the future of the Microsoft band?

    Just received the update to MS Health (now called MS Band version 2.0.20914.0) on 950XL and it also updated the Band 2 to build 2.0.5202.0 26R. Only announcement was the new name. No update yet for the software on my Surface.

    Band 2 No longer recording post-run heart rates

    Not sure why but noticed that since 6/22 my band 2 is no longer recording any heart rates at the 1 min 2 min times like previously. Anyone having this issue? It is recording the heart rate the entire run, just the post rates not recording even though the band shows acquired as I monitored it...

    Numbered badge on MS Health Live Tile

    So mine has progressively increased every few days. Started at 4, skipped 5, went to 6 and now 7. I cannot correlate to anything.

    band is falling apart. Thinking of getting Fitbit Surge

    Has mine since day 1 and it was having the breaking apart symptoms and the bubbles around the charge port were causing issues with the band getting charges.

    10 cumulative update keeps failing

    So my workstation updated with no issues and restart was clean. Surface 3 same. But Surface Pro 3 is still getting download issues. I'm going to continue to let it sit over night and check it in the morning.

    10 cumulative update keeps failing

    OK, further reading on Microsoft's site leads me to believe this will only be available via Windows update. That is the comment on many of the security bulletins this fixes. Looking at my logs it appears to be failing on download. So I'll wait as the package has not completed on my Surface.

    I've noticed since this morning a series of attempts to install this new update (KB3081424) to my Surface 3 Pro but it has failed with error 0x80004005. The error message was very helpful...
