I moved to Android on an HTC 10 from my Lumia 920 about a year ago. What do I like? I like the app support. You are definitely a first-class citizen for most third-party apps, something I never felt in Windows. The hardware itself is excellent - the HTC 10 is an underappreciated phone from the...

An update - switching from Fast to Slow has at least gotten me 14388. Maybe I'll switch back to Fast later to get the new builds again.

I have two systems running on the Insider Preview here, but one of them is behaving oddly. Simply put, it hasn't received a new Fast ring update since Build 14383. Windows Update itself is working - I just received updates for Office via Windows Update. It's been on the Fast ring since the...

My first smartphone was a Lumia 800, and my second was a Lumia 920. I really wish the third could have been a 950 XL, but... I couldn't make that jump. I love Live Tiles as a design concept - it's really what brought me to Windows Phone in the first place. WP8.1 was a truly exquisite piece of...

Thanks - I didn't realize that the "Get Skype" app was the UWP preview.

I was an ***** and accidentally uninstalled the Skype UWP app. Is there a way to get it back?

I would say a lot of the tech journalists who either cover Microsoft or at least report on it in a reasonably balanced way count... the best recent example is Mary Jo Foley.

Truth be told what I'm really looking for is good reasons to stay - I like W10M as it is. I jumped on the platform with WP7 because I really do find the live tiles extremely useful, and I like the distinct look. However, with everything happening (or not happening) around Microsoft and mobile...

After about two and a half years of service it's time for me to upgrade from my Lumia 920. However... I'm not sure whether to stick around the Windows 10 Mobile ecosystem. I'm okay with Windows 10 Mobile right now, and but because I like to keep my devices for a long time (2-3 years) the...

Re: Lumia 520, 720, 920, 1020, 1320 Owners It doesn't, but it does influence my decision-making on what my next phone will be. I've had my 920 for about two and a half years. (I bought my 920 VERY late into its lifespan, because at the time it was a bargain compared to other phones. I paid for...

Re: Lumia 520, 720, 920, 1020, 1320 Owners Disappointed. I was planning to keep my 920 going as long as it would run. My next phone will probably be Android, but I can't say I'm happy with that decision either. Also, the decision has soured me on Microsoft as a guardian of an ecosystem. I'm a...

Let me upgrade from my venerable Lumia 920...

Waze is a Google owned company. Google would rather develop for Amiga than anything Windows Phone.

Generally between 20-30.

Odd bug that (I think) was only introduced with the last update. Some system sounds (such as lock/unlock sounds, charging sounds) no longer seem to work. Anyone else see this? (I have a Lumia 920.)
