    How is X3 camera after update?

    That is normal......16:9 crops the top and bottom, so it does no use the whole sensor area.....4:3 is the standard ratio, mainly a hold over from the film days and prints.......photo originally posted by xandros9..... Sent from mTalk

    I do not have recovery key info to unlock my windows phone. How do i bypass the step?

    You need to contact previous owner..... Sounds like he/she had reset protection enabled.....only previous owner can access reset key as far as I know....without that it's a paperweight.....sorry Sent from mTalk

    Improving speed on Lumia 950

    If you haven't tried a hard reset, I think you should.....I realize it's a PITA, but it can solve a lot of problems such as yours.....and I don't recommend restoring a backup, set up from scratch.... Sent from mTalk

    Lagging overheating graphics on 950?

    I have an AT&T 950, and an unlocked 950XL, the only thing that seems to warm them up pretty good for some reason is TubeCast........so I pretty much just use edge for YouTube videos now, I have never really noticed them getting hot to the point of throttling though....but I'm not a heavy gamer...

    my lumia 540 fell into water..now its not working..

    I would never trust a water damaged phone long term.....If you need data recovered the faster you get it to a repair facility, the better......along with the water potentially causing a short circuit, the minerals left behind when the water dries is very harmful, along with corrosion. There is...

    Lumia 640 Main camera.

    The sensor aspect ratio of 4:3 is the issue,......a 16:9 aspect ratio picture is a crop, it does not utilize the full surface area of the CMOS sensor, it crops the top and bottom off ....pretty much the way it is in the digital photography world.....it is a hold over from the film days and...

    Problem with phone calls when using dual sim?

    Running two AT&T sims, one personal, one business.....non data sim is 2G, always has been for me, zero problems with calls, text, or MMS....works like two separate phones as it should..... Sent from mTalk
