    If your 950 bit the bullet, would you...

    I would put my SIM card into my second 950 that's still in a sealed box sitting on my bookshelf lol :shocked: I bought my first 950 at launch and then the BOGO deal came last spring and I took advantage of that too for the XL. Ridiculous

    Fido on Extended Network (roaming) no background tasks!

    Not sure if related but my phone went into Rogers ext-LTE a few times the other day and I'm not even roaming! It went back to normal after about 20 mins each time. I know FIDO and Rogers share a network, so maybe they were having some issues? My issue happened on November 6th and then again on...

    Pictures / Video taken with your 1020

    My Lumia 950 is my daily driver now, but going through some pics of a trip to Chicago a couple of years ago I found these pics taken with my Lumia 1020. All handheld and the last three have some editing with the basic editor in the stock photos viewing app in Windows 10. The first shot of "The...

    Would You Buy The Alcatel Idol 4S Over The Lumia 950?

    I'm a camera snob so no I wouldn't buy the 4s over the Lumia 950. Not a big gamer and my 950 has been solid for me, though admittedly a little slower than current flagships. But taking an extra half-second to load an app is a small price to pay for me. My biggest worry is that the...

    Has anyone else noticed the camera app only goes up to 16MP on the L950?

    To get the full 19MP the aspect ratio has to be set to 4x3

    Has anybody noticed windows 10 mobile has actually gotten really good lately?

    I bought the Lumia 950 at launch and it has been pretty smooth since day 1. The odd random reboot in the first month, but I applaud MS for pushing out updates so frequently. My main issue is the lack of apps, and losing some apps that were pretty crucial to me meant I ended up getting an...

    Camera roll - same photo saved multiple times?

    That's right. HDR (High Dynamic Range) will take three images at different exposure values and then blend them together for the desired effect. One low EV, one middle EV and one high EV. The old photos gallery wouldn't show all three images but just the blended HDR jpeg. Now the gallery shows...

    Oh Lumia 950 how I missed you

    I've been a long time Windows Phone fan and I was one of the first guys singing the 950's praise last year when I got mine after a brief foray into the Android world. I loved the 950, but a few months ago a few crucial apps decided to ditch support for Windows Mobile :( so my hand was kind of...

    SMS messages showing in Action Centre but can't reply.

    Thank you!! I have it working now. It was one little setting in Cortana on my PC. I had to select "allow Cortana to access Calendar, Email, Messaging when device is locked". Also glad to hear it works with Android ;-)

    SMS messages showing in Action Centre but can't reply.

    Hey guys, Not sure if I should post this here or in the Lumia 950XL forum. Anyway, I have been using an Android phone for a while but recently put my SIM card into my Lumia 950 XL for a change of pace. I updated the phone to the latest Windows Mobile version and updated the apps. To my...

    Why is it impossible to connect my Lumia 950 by USB (C) cable to computer?

    I had a similar problem a few weeks ago and it ended up being some pocket lint stuck inside the connector port on the phone :grincry:
