    Help! 1020 sim tray stuck

    Here's the video I followed. Worked for me with some wiggling. https://youtu.be/cCMcMkEJAIU

    Any way to control aperture?

    re: Aaaaaaand......you're right, and I'm a dumbass. Just checked my HTC and there's no aperture control. So nothing to see here. Just move along. Next question. :)

    Any way to control aperture?

    re: Thanks, I tried that during mid day, and just got a totally white (blown out, overexposed) shot. I'll try it again when it's closer to dusk and see if I get better results. I'll pull my HTC out for a side by side comparison so I can take time of day out of the equation.

    Any way to control aperture?

    So, I just got a 1020 from the deal last week and I've been setting it up. So far, so good. I was worried about apps but have been happy with all the replacements/versions I've found, so no problems there. I've been using the HTC Desire Eye, which just updated to Lollipop (5.x) and I've been...

    Lumia 1020's on sale for $139

    Got mine today as well. Black and not a scratch on it. I don't know if it's unlocked as I'm already on ATT. I'll be swapping my sim between my HTC Desire Eye and this 1020. For $139, it was a no-brainer for me. Got a case for $10 and the camera grip coming as well. Think I'll switch over...

    Just bought a 1020 - Questions? I've got answers

    I jumped on this deal as well. I figured it was a refurb so no worries there. I should have it today hopefully. I still have my HTC Desire Eye and will be switching back and forth. For $139, I figure it's a no-brainer. Now I'm debating on whether or not to buy the battery/camera grip...

    Cases for my Stream 7

    Sorry, just saw this. The keyboard isn't attached so I just slide the keyboard forward (actually put it half on the case and it gives me a nice tilt). Then the case has a fold in the middle of the back that allows the Stream to stand up like a tent. I'll try to post a picture sometime.

    tablet tries to turn off, not sleep

    Well, in true Windows fashion, my Stream has healed itself. Now I tap on the power button and it goes to sleep. And no, I don't remember any Windows updates. Things that make you go "hmmmmmmm....."

    tablet tries to turn off, not sleep

    Mine has started doing this. I've started just shutting it down since it shuts down/boots up really quickly, but I'd prefer if it went to sleep instead like it used to. Also, since I regularly shut it down now, I'm pretty much installing all the automagically downloaded updates, so in theory...

    What does the BIOS update sp69957 offer?

    So, has anyone figured out what this update does? I don't feel the need to fix something that doesn't appear broken.

    Cases for my Stream 7

    Mine doesn't but I figure it should. I wonder if there's a setting somewhere.

    Anyone tried a 128GB card yet?

    I know the official specs say 32GB only, and I know that people here are using 64GB cards. So, has anyone used a 128GB card? Now that I have my OTG cable, I'm going to move past the 32GB card I currently have. If a 128GB card works, I may get one.

    HP Stream 7 size

    IMHO, it's too big for a Zune replacement. What phone do you use? Get one with removable storage and you have a phone/computer/mp3 player/GPS/heart rate monitor/fit bit.

    What am I going to use Office 365 for?

    I use for work around the office. ;) Full Outlook is handy as I now have my work calendar and email without having to encrypt my device.

    Cases for my Stream 7

    When I bought my Stream 7, I also picked up the HP flip/hard cover (HP Spares# 790144-101, HP Component # 789865-101). The case fits snugly and the hard cover provides nice protection for the screen. It's made of some sort of hard/rigid plastic with a matte finish on the outside, and felt-like...
