    Easily Flash any Lumia 920 with full Amber/GDR2 features!

    i'm on AT&T with a year old phone, so i'm not too worried about warranty issues. AT&T had its head in the sand, so mostly i'm interested in unlocking the new features that my device can handle, such as FM radio and improved camera software. any easy options that don't involve intentionally...

    Did AT&T forget about us?

    For me, the update is huge because I can't wait to get the FM radio functionality. I listen to a lot of live sports which generally can't be streamed and it would have been nice to have a month ago when there was still some time left in the MLB season...

    Half my photos are blurry

    Thanks uselessrobot - I'll give that a shot for a while (it was on by default) and see if that improves things.

    Half my photos are blurry

    So about half of the photos I take with my 920 (AT&T, no Amber/GDR2 yet) on auto settings end up very blurry. Not just soft, but completely out of focus. The other half of the time, the images are crisp and perfect. I can probably get a couple examples if needed. I always take them the same...

    Group text problem - "Get media content now"

    It seems that it wasn't just the group messages, it was all data that was unavailable. After some playing around, I discovered that somehow my Access Point was set to "AT&T 3G". I changed it to "AT&T - LTE 1 - Lumia" and all is well.

    Group text problem - "Get media content now"

    I have a Lumia 920 on AT&T, and in the past few days my group texts seem to be broken. They all arrive individually with no actual message, only a clickable "Get media content now" and either (1KB) or (32KB) following the link. Clicking it seems to do something but then after a moment it just...

    Poll : How Much do you rate WP8 On a scale of 1-10 ?

    6 out of 10. Calendar is garbage, no proper notifications, no FM radio support (yet), no home/lock screen landscape orientation, pathetic NFC support, no way to close background apps (like Pandora), and miscellaneous bugs here and there. There are a lot of good things, and the user experience...

    Appointment help!

    Please help, I can't seem to figure this out and it should be easy. I want to make an appointment from 5pm to 6pm for every Tuesday from today until September, but I keep getting this stupid error: "The duration of the appointment must be shorter than how frequently it occurs." Here's what I...

    Unlocking 920 with Verizon SIM

    I obtained an unlock code for my AT&T Lumia 920. Can I use a Verizon iPhone 5 SIM to unlock my device? (I don't intend to try to use it on Verizon, just unlock). Or, should I just try to find someone with a T-Mobile nano SIM?

    Dropping calls

    My 920 has recently started dropping calls, almost every other call. It just cuts out and returns to its previous screen (whatever it was, usually a contact) without displaying the usual "Call ended" splash screen. It's almost as if the "phone call" app just crashes without any sort of graceful...

    End date for recurring appointments?

    Ah, you have to customize How Long as well as Occurs. Not very intuitive, but I guess it works. Thanks,

    End date for recurring appointments?

    Hello - is it possible to set an end date for a recurring appointment? I have something I want to schedule for every Tuesday, starting May 7 and ending in September. But I don't see an option for ending it, and I definitely don't want it on my calendar on every Tuesday until the end of time...

    Words With Friends closing on open

    I would uninstall, then re-install via the full windowsphone website (don't use the store). I've had to do that several times for Words with Friends, which seems to be the only app that constantly breaks.

    Detroit Michigan 920 Users

    I wonder if it's the 4G/LTE reception up there - I'm only downtown occasionally for work but haven't noticed any unusual battery drains. Did your previous phones have the issue? My building in Farmington Hills gets crappy reception so perhaps it's just a problem with being inside the big tower...

    Accessories update (Jan 4)

    I was prompted from my Store live tile to update several apps today, and "Accessories" was one of them. Anyone know what changed?
