    Should I come back??

    Sorry to say that if you are still on Windows Mobile, you are missing the boat big time. I was on WP for years, 8.1 and 10M, and finally all the bugs and lack of apps drove me to an S7 Galaxy a few weeks ago. It is has exceeded my wildest expectations, everything is fast, there are no bugs...

    Upgrade to Windows 10 Mobile Now?

    I'd say it's borderline, I upgraded my 1020 and so far it has been mainly frustrating. There is nothing that I have yet found that works better than WP8.1, except for perhaps some rendering in the browser. Generally everything is slower. Keyboard is noticeably slower. Apps launch more slowly...

    Missing joe belfiore badly :(

    Yes you are so right, Belfiore was a shocker and should have resigned long ago, I blame him in large part for the shambles that is Windows Phone/Mobile. He was always on Twitter spouting about how great WP is while the forums were full of bugs, or he would be bragging about some new feature that...

    1020 OIS Screech

    It won't get better. I'm onto my 4th 1020 now, and they've all had this fault to a greater or lesser extent. The latest one is just starting to do it when held at certain angles. It started off from brand new with extremely noisy bearings even before the screeching started, I should've replaced...

    Lumia 1020 camera module making weird 'fan' noise?

    I would insist on getting your money back, I did with Nokia NZ and they eventually relented, as I have had this OIS issue twice as well as a mic failure. I am convinced there is a major design fault with the 1020 OIS as there are so many reports of this issue online and no doubt for each one...

    1020 OIS Screech

    Mate, Nokia NZ are the worst customer service I have EVER experienced. I've been emailing a guy who works at Nokia NZ (now Microsoft) and making little headway. PM me for his contact details. I am also ready to wash my hands of the 1020, what an epic failure. Maybe should write to Fair Go?? I...

    Lumia 1020 camera module making weird 'fan' noise?

    Just reporting back that the screeching issue has returned in my replacement handset. So if I return it, this will be the 4th time this year my 1020 has been returned to Nokia NZ. Not as severe as first time, but presume it will only get worse. This must be a major design fault in the 1020...

    1020 OIS Screech

    Just reporting back that this issue has returned in my replacement handset. Was definitely not the original unit repaired, as that was cunningly "lost in the mail" by Nokia or NZ Post. So if I return it, this will be the 4th time this year my 1020 has been returned to Nokia NZ. Not as severe...

    Unable to reposition text cursor by holding?

    I was just writing a text message on shiny new WP8.1, and tried to re-position cursor to start of line, by holding down until yellow drag cursor appears, as usual. Nothing happened. Anyone else experienced this, or just me? Is there now an alternative way of doing this?

    List here what you DO NOT like on 8.1.

    Is it just my phone, or can you no longer position the cursor in text by holding?? Seems like a bug??

    Screen scratches already??

    I am on to my 3rd 1020, having gone through two replacements. The first one I had for probably 3 months and treated it very carefully. It had zero scratches. Latest replacement I have had only a couple of weeks and I noticed yesterday the screen has quite a few small scratches already, which I...

    Lumia 1020 Microphone Issues

    I just received a replacement 1020 from Nokia NZ for this issue. New one works fine, so presumably this is a hardware fault, and seemingly quite common. Under "about" in settings, my "Hardware revision number" is showing as 4.4.0.0 if that is of any interest.
