Greetings, everyone. Last month, I finally had to move on from my beloved Lumia 1520 after 5 years of use. I just replaced the battery last year, so it runs good as new battery wise, but the increasing lack of functionality with all apps having their plugs pulled finally forced my hand. I had...

This is the ebay listing...

A new one is supposed to be coming (at e3 I would imagine). There were leaked photos on Windows Central a while ago. That is why the original elite controller is discontinued. Yeah, I love my elite controller too. Going back to the standard controller feels weird.

Happy to announce that the phone charged to 100% last night (no getting stuck at 80%). Overnight, it only fell to 95%, where as with my original battery in it's current state, would have fallen to 20% or lower. When I first got my Lumia 1520, the battery used to last over 2 days. For the last...

Well, just finished my first ever "surgery" on a phone. Appeared to have successfully replaced the battery in my Lumia 1520. Phone appears to be working and is currently charging. We'll see if it charges to 100% or caps at 80% like other people have posted about. There is a difference in the...

Extremely delighted! Back in the first half of March, I ordered a new battery for my Lumia 1520 from ebay. The photo on ebay showed a date of 2017 on the battery, where as most battery photos on ebay show 2014 / 2015, so I felt fortunate to find a newer battery. To my surprise, the battery...

The bass filter option disappeared at some point way back when during an update to the app. I don't know why it was removed, but I've never had any complaint with how the phone handles loud bass sounds since. I should go check out Audio Recorder Pro.

Yes. Windows Phone 8.1. Standard Lumia Camera app. The stereo separation is very noticeable if you stumble upon some other videos from this tour on YouTube in which those sound like mono recording. There is a nice depth to the Lumia 1520 audio compared to other videos on YouTube.

Shot some video at last night's Judas Priest concert. https://youtu.be/P8L2wlxmAi8 The audio quality from my battery dying Lumia 1520 (Windows Phone 8.1) sounds better than most - if not all - other videos of this tour that I've seen on YouTube. The f2.4 lens is showing it's age in low light...

Well, I hope the bezel whiners are happy. To each their own. I'd rather have a 16:9 display with some healthy bezel like the Lumia 1520, instead of this display with round corners that Apple is showing off.

I just came to the forums, looking to post this exact same topic. I think that it started last week, where the comments would no longer load in the WP8.1 app. I did find that it will still post comments even though it won't load them (I commented on some article last week), but had to visit...

I'm still using Windows Phone 8.1 on my Lumia 1520. It does everything that I need it to do, and would be perfect if Rudy could update 6tag, and Microsoft could update the Facebook app to include the latest feature set. To this day, I still love the People Hub, Lumia Camera with audio capture...

Just saw this on my youtube home page recommendations. If it hasn't been posted here before, take a look. I really enjoyed this video. https://youtu.be/ETF6kkBhxeo I think that this is a great look at Windows Phone in 2017, and some excellent observations by the creator. I totally agree...

I switched from Chrome to Edge when Windows 10 launched. I've seen some people express issues with Edge, but I've never had a problem. Works perfectly for me, and I'm glad to be rid of Google Chrome.

I miss the days when I looked forward to checking the Upcoming & Rumored Devices forum on pretty much a daily basis. It was always exciting to see what our thoughts were regarding rumours of upcoming Windows Phones, news on what Nokia might have in the pipeline, the what if's, the what could...
