    Switching platforms? | Thinking of leaving?...comment here!

    I find myself realizing that my experience with Windows phone will soon end. I think Windows Mobile has such great possibilities and I think it's an OS that people can come to love over iOS or Android. I think Microsoft could make better inroads into the market share but it seems they just...

    Microsoft Phone Future

    I didn't realize Microsoft previously dabbled in Android emulation. I'm not at all a fan of emulating one platform on top of another. It seems like it's just asking from problems. It will be interesting to see Microsoft's progress with Windows 10 on ARM. Thanks for the input.

    Microsoft Phone Future

    Possibly the main thing I don't want to lose is Cortana. I love being able to use my phone to set reminders using Cortana and have the reminder show up later on my phone or PC. I'm leaning toward Android at this point but I'm still curious if you tried Cortana on your iPhone. I'm thinking I can...

    Creating new user account will not allow work email address

    It's Home. I've found additional information about this. Evidently Microsoft made a change last week in an effort to consolidate accounts (so-to-speak). It sounds good on their part, but I'm at a loss at how to proceed. My impression at this point is I will have to create Outlook email...

    W10M - Update - Is it possible?

    I'm tired of waiting on ATT. Is it possible to upgrade through the Insider program to the W10M version that was released to the public? I'm not really looking to be on the cutting edge of releases but there are features of W10M I'd like to start using. For all we know W10M is on ATT's...

    Cortana / PC sync activated?

    Is the Cortana phone-to-PC (and vice versa) sync activated on the 950XL? In other words, if I use Cortana to make an appointment while sitting at my PC, will the appointment pop up later on my phone? I know this is supposed to be a feature of Window 10 Mobile, just curious if it is active on...

    Composing Gmail email problem

    Anyone else having problems composing new emails in Gmail and using Edge? It just started a day or two ago. It's happening on at least two Windows 10/Edge users so far. Wondering if it relates to patch Tuesday.

    Would you honestly buy another Microsoft Mobile?

    I stayed with my 920 as long as I could. I couldn't wait till the 950 so I bought outright a 640XL and I'm loving it. In all likelihood I'll buy a 950XL when it is released. I've never been impressed with Android. I've had an iPhone in the past and liked it but to me Windows 7, 8.1 mobile is...

    Hey Cortana amusement

    Setting up Windows 10: So I spend most of my computer time between two laptops. One I use primarily at work the other at home. My home laptop got the Windows 10 update first. I got it all set up and I set up the "Hey Cortana" option. I also trained it specifically for my voice. I happened...

    cortana windows 10 and windows phone question?

    I just found this on a search: Cortana reminders on Windows 10 Cortana is still adapting to the PC, so right now reminders can't be edited in Windows 10. Also, reminders can sync only across Windows 10 devices. So if you created one on Windows 10, you'll need to set a new one on your Windows...
