EWWWWWWWWWWWW frickin grapefruit disguised as beer.....good god man...please drink a Belgium double or quad at least. :wink: I left W10m long ago.....i loved my lumia 929 but with out apps...its useless as a device for me. I dont need any MS apps...just great general use ones: Music...

My desktop (pic in my above post) is running 14393.351 and my laptop which I want to have the same start menu us running 10586.633. So I would need the AU to get the ability to have my start page look like my desktop? Or is there some tweak with registry or something I can do to achieve this...

I have several PC's running Win 10 and some are different versions of Win 10...... I am trying to get my laptop running Win10 home 32bit, to have the same start window settings as my desktop running Win10 Pro 64bit. I'm not sure if some of the settings between these two versions of Win10 have...

Quick update.....now after having the Thinkpad x201 setup for a few days.......I feel I made a solid decision to get this over any tablet/mobile device. Though I would of liked having something somewhat lighter to carry around in my backpack......the raw power and functionality more than...

Default is on most likely because they could not have the past settings in last build to default to new installed settings. There are many new ones and the UI change didnt allow for them to know exactly which ones a user wants on. Sort of like when you get a new phone or do a hard reset...

That was unfortunate you picked the Nexus 5x....that phone has problems even after all the updates and is a fact. Then add 100+ apps with not enough RAM......you got a hand held dump truck! I have several android phones some 2 years old, and they don't act like you have stated. I use...

I would suggest buying a used phone off swappa or the bay. You could get a good deal on several newer android devices like a nexus 6p (if you dont mind that size). If you don't like it....easy to flip it at little cost most likely. Android devices differ in user experience pending on the skin...

I ended up buying a 12' Lenovo Thinkpad x201 in great shape for $135. I will have to just deal with the weight....but now I have much better productivity and power. I always wanted a think pad......now I have a piece of history to run my old x89 accounting data base software on the go.

The icon is definately a little faster/snappier. Battery life does not seem to be any better for me at all....with stand-by being my gauge right now as my sim is being used in another phone. BIG BUMMER......lost the FM radio!!! :angry:

I have a external hard drive box that I can put a cd player in and have it output with a normal USB connection. Yes you are correct about how the program may scale on a 8 inch screen. Maybe a 10 inch table could be more suitable if this is the case. The software is pretty basic and the UI...

I have a need to run my business contact management/database program on a highly portable device like a 8 to 10 inch tablet if at all possible. I do not want to carry around a heavy/bulky/not quick to turn on and access laptop or notebook. So a tablet would be great for my situation. I run...

Did you ever get the LTE working?

I have 2 Icons running the official Verizon OTA update. Remember to go and check all your settings after updating or resetting. I had to go through all the app permissions as they were all toggled to on. A few other settings I had to check as well. But even then after limiting the app...

If you have gone through the Verizon update from 8.1.....to Win10....it probably reset all the background app permissions and many other settings. I found this after activating one of my Icons for a family member and then updating my spare Icon as well. Though this did help battery...

Though I have been using the andoird platform and hardware for many months now...I still have 2 Icons. I always kept one on 8.1 and used it as a wifi/camera basically. The other one I used with Fast Ring OS on Verizon for many months last year and then stopped about March. Now I have both...
