    Ten disappointing things about Windows 10 :(

    All the hidden menus and swiping in Windows 8 was a big problem for most people. I've had to support it at work and with friends and family at home. They could never get used to all the hidden menus which is why they wanted the start menu back so bad. This is even on dedicated tablets but even...

    Ten disappointing things about Windows 10 :(

    This thread is so big because more people tend to go to forums to complain than to give praise. Usually if someone likes something they aren't as likely to post about it unlike people with problems or complainers that want to make sure everyone knows what they hate about it. I'm also sure all...

    How many people actually use Apps?

    The main reason I use apps over websites when possible is because browsers are starting to be complete memory hogs. The apps usually have more functionality and better OS integration. I'm praying Dish Networks comes out with a Universal Windows App because trying to stream through their...

    The Windows 10 Clean Install Thread

    I think some people are confusing "Clean Install" with something else. A clean install is when you either have a new hard drive with no partitions or you delete and recreate the partitions during the installation - reformat. A clean install will not contain any old folders or files on the...

    The Windows 10 Clean Install Thread

    It will only prompt for the key if you do a clean install from USB or DVD that deletes your original Windows partition. But if you did the Win 7/8 to 10 upgrade you can just skip through when it asks for keys and it will automatically be activated when you log in the first time. What I'm not...

    The Windows 10 Clean Install Thread

    I just did a clean install from the ISO images. I have had a Surface Pro 3 with Windows Insider preview 10240 installed on it. I wasn't sure if there was an official update that would be installed or if I already had the latest with 10240 and there wouldn’t be a major update. This is my...

    Nokia Maps is a giant step backwards

    I too don't find Nokia Drive that great. It's missing a lot of functions. One is alternate routes. Android had this and so does Navigon for Windows Phone. You also can't see a Map overview of your route. The only way I know which way it has mapped is by zooming out. The other thing I don't like...

    Both The Verge and CNET seem to think the Lumia 920 is too bulky

    Just got my Cyan 920 in. I have been using a SG3 for the last 6 months. First impressions is that it is noticeably heavy but I had an old HTC Evo 4G which feels about the same. The size and shape is comfortable. The thicker body actually makes it easier to hold it without hands between shoulder...

    Your Order Statuses On ATT..

    I ordered the cyan on the 7th at 7 AM pacific time. Didn't think it was going to ship any time soon. Woke up this morning with a email saying it was shipped. Not only was it shipped late last night but they shipped it Fed Ex next day with special Saturday delivery! Should be here this afternoon...

    Your Order Statuses On ATT..

    So is it only the Cyan that is not shipping? I ordered the Cyan at 5 AM Wednesday and my order status says "Preorder Processing". I called and they said there was nothing wrong with the order and to just wait for the next email with shipping status. So even if it does ship I won't be getting it...

    Call Voice quality issues

    Definitely a problem with mine. I did several test calls to my home voicemail. One from my old Sprint Evo 4G, a couple from my wife's AT&T Focus, and several from my HTC Titan from different locations. All of my voicemails from the HTC Titan sounded muffled and hard to hear. I've tried resetting...

    Poor Quality from Audio Jack?

    I just got my Focus S last week and haven't noticed any popping/crackling or audio issues. I've used the headphones that came with it and the volume and pause controls work just fine. I've used Zune and Slacker for music. I haven't tried it connected to my wife's car yet. My car doesn't have an...
