so far so good. 2:30pm and still have 85% left moderate use, texting, etc. any other day I'd be at 45% or less by now

Ever since the last update, my phone has been suffering the same battery drain issues many describe (no activity, yet massive/fast drops in battery). When you look at the % of usage, it doesn't add up, lending to the belief it's a rogue process hanging? I was thinking of putting the phone...

Wow. What a mess. I sure hope this gets resolved. Last couple of days I was getting the notification x6 or 7. All at once. But all the 'beeping' was spread out over 30-60 min. HIGHLY annoying. Ironically, I disabled ALL NOTIFICATIONS, yet I still receive them. Just not as many now (x2 or 3)...

Thanks for the tip, however, that is the normal 'process' I have to do with any MSFT/Nokia update (activate 'dummy' access point, then reactivate, reboot phone, etc). It has worked fluidly every update until this one.

Thanks for the tip, but those settings for me have always been empty. From the start, I've let Access Point do its thang.

I wonder what in the windows operating system is preventing the reception of MMS, even though they can be sent properly. As you can see, this is across multiple carriers and devices. It's baffling, because it was working for me, now isn't. It works for some people, not others. It fixes itself...

I can confirm looking at previous text timelines, it was working fine prior to the update. Others have mentioned it just all of a sudden 'works', so I don't quite know what options are available to rectify this. In another thread they suggested activating Airplane mode and then back to...

I recently installed the most recent Nokia/MSFT updates to my unlocked Rogers L920 (used on Koodo network). I'm used to the 'process' after updates, with Access Point, etc, to get Internet Sharing working, etc, however, this is the first time this happened. Internet Sharing: works fine Sending...

For anyone who needs MMS and Internet Sharing, and used to use Access Point (after which this update broke it), where did you put the custom APN settings, in the Cellular section, or did you create a new access point, and put the settings there? Anyone else on either Bell, Virgin Canada, or the...

Yeah, yeah.... PUNK! Well, in that case borasar (been away from the community for a while, saw this yesterday), the decision to release 1308, which was actually 1308, not like I claimed (even though this wasn't necessarily the force of my argument, but I will concede nonetheless, I'm wrong...

Manual settings never made my unlocked phone fully functional. Access Point did. Until now.

Are you saying that after the hard reboot, the newest version/update of Access Point DOES NOT crash when selecting the appropriate access point? All other methods listed above have done nothing for me.

This is just stupid now. Every time something new comes down the pipe, I'm forced to hope and pray the phone still is fully functional, and play with settings, add delete, dance with my phone, do a voodoo dance, etc Isn't this our criticism of the Android platform. Sheesh. It should just work...

The thing is, as a Rogers user you shouldn't have to do anything with Access Point. Those Rogers settings ought to be built in. That's why people like myself revert to Access Point or manually entering APN. If it helps (likely not), the users I know with Rogers who are experiencing an issue...

That's what I seem to be seeing also. We were speculating earlier that its because most Rogers users don't use the Access Point app (they shouldn't have to, since it was exclusive to their network, should work out of the box). Whereas unlocked versions on other carriers are fine (most part)...
