    Mobile Office, Continuum, and laptop replacement

    Thanks for the reply. I imagine that's what I'll have to do, go in to a store and try it out myself, and also talk to my university and see if taking finals on a phone-computer isn't against their policy. I just don't want to wait that long, I've been waiting long enough as is!

    Mobile Office, Continuum, and laptop replacement

    I am a law student that uses a 17.3" 2.5 year old Toshiba laptop. I use my computer to take notes, take tests, browse the internet, do email, manage music/pictures, etc. I do have to use legal search engines that I'm not sure if they will work on a mobile browser, but, it should with edge on...

    Miracast

    Just wanted to let everyone on this forum know, that my wife's Lumia 830 (RM-985) was able to connect to my Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter. Previously, I believe it was said that only the 1520 and 930/Icon could do that, but that's not the case.

    Help: Lumia 1520 lens/camera shakes when held still!

    Did you notice the same issue with your front-facing camera? It only happens with me to the rear camera, and I just had my display replaced, so that leads me to believe that the camera is faulty, and not the display.

    Help: Lumia 1520 lens/camera shakes when held still!

    UPDATE: Reset my phone and upgraded back to Denim through the Software Recovery Tool. Same problem. I will be ordering a replacement part, either on Amazon or parts4repair, and hopefully that will solve the problem.

    Swapping 1520 housing/back cover

    Wait, if you replace the back, you lose NFC? I was planning on replacing my black back to a red one with a part I found on parts4repair.com, but I don't wanna lose NFC.

    hey Cortana is great BUT...

    Haven't really noticed it, but you are right, it would've been a nice touch for it to go back to the app or screen you were at prior to using Corana.

    Help: Lumia 1520 lens/camera shakes when held still!

    I just noticed this problem today. Didn't notice it even a week ago when I had just updated to Denim on my ATT Lumia 1520. Restarted the phone and still there was a problem. Turning on the grids didn't help. The front facing camera has no problem, and even when I try other lenses for the...

    Is the Nokia Lumia 2520 still worth it?

    I bought one in lieu of a chinese dual-boot tablet, and I am very pleased with mine. I mainly bought it over something else that was running full windows because the 2520 came with full office for free which I use daily as a student. I wish it could run legacy apps and the like, but I paid...

    Should I buy a Lumia 2520 now?

    Can the 2520 connect to a wireless display? I have the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter, and would love to use it on my TV.

    Should I buy a Lumia 2520 now?

    Ya know, I think I'm just nostalgic for the Nokia Brand. I like the big battery, that it comes with office, and the aesthetics of it. All the reviews make it look really snappy too. I saw today that Microsoft has ended production, so I wonder if there'll be a big sale on it, but that's...

    Should I buy a Lumia 2520 now?

    Alright you guys, I've been watching review after review and reading tons of conversations on this forum. I am dedicated to the Microsoft platform, I own a Lumia 1520, use a windows laptop, and am now interested in getting a Lumia 2520. A couple of hang ups for me though... 1. The 16:9 aspect...

    Replacing Lumia 1520 Back Cover To a Different Colour

    I was looking at doing the same thing, with the back on parts4repair.com. There are two of them, one that has the lens and flash in it, and one that doesn't, and I'm not sure if the more expensive one would be worth the extra money. Would changing the back mean that I could finally use a QI...
