    Love this phone

    Text reading from a car actually worked with Windows Phone 7 as well. Glad you're enjoying the phone, congrats on the good deal...Despite what editors say on this website, and despite MSFT announcing that it is throwing in the towel, windows phone still a great experience.

    Confused - Mix feelings.

    my only fear is if major apps like Whatsapp, Telegram, Twitter stop supporting WP. I have the EliteX3, but I miss the Lumia 1520. sometimes consider getting a new one. the 1520 works beautifully because it didnt get the creators update - which destroyed my favorite feature: people hub...

    Microsoft Reportedly Testing New Phone With New Windows Mobile OS

    sounds like a sh*tty idea. Windows Phone fans never wanted a desktop like experience on a phone, which is what seems to be happening. The phone experience up until 8.1 was way better than on the PC.

    Elite X3 still worth it in mid 2017

    yes! if youre a former Windows Phone fan, then you'll like it. If youre moving over from a different OS, then I wouldn't recommend it. I just made the move after my Lumia 1520's screen messing up. I'm very happy with it, I'm glad that it was a 6 inch screen like the 1520, and also very sleek...

    Hey thanks Xandros9, I got it! Since I don't use the app almost ever, my "Whats New" feed finally works! https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/facebook-app-t3461709/page4#post71847466 Facebook will prompt you to install the new version if you use the app, so I guess this is just...

    Older version of Facebook to Side Load (connect functionality)

    Hi, Wondering where I can find the older version of facebook so I can sideload it. When I first updated my Lumia 1520 around November, it was using the old FB and it had facebook connect in Win10, i.e. the People "App" was integrated with status updates just like in 8.1. The phone then asked...

    Alternative to Groove for Zune/Xbox Music experience?

    I just upgraded to w10m and dislike Groove, hard to use a L1520 with one hand when driving....much easier to swipe across to access my playlists. What apps give me a legit alternative to the old zune experience? Willing to pay thanks

    Twitter integration lost in w10m?

    WOW! terrible news :( for someone using it since WP7, this and lnkedin both are a huge loss to the OS functionality. Im starting to wonder more and more, what is so novel and special about Windows anymore? really really regret upgrading now.

    LinkedIN contacts in People Hub

    Hi Folks, any news on if this was fixed in Redstone build? Losing syncing of LinkedIn contacts is another reason why I have been hesitant on upgrading.

    according to MSFT you can share living images with the win 10 m devices. Has anyone accomplished this after upgrading to Lumia 1520? Here is the link that explains it...

    I am completely over groove music!

    Grove Music is such a dumb name, it doesn't give it any distinct label as a Microsoft product, has zero brand recognition. This kind of stuff adds up, MSFT never knows how to market themselves and thats why they are in 3rd place. They could have went along with x-box music but just make it...

    Has Gmail on Web gone back to only HTML (phone)?

    Thank you, Kristijanvg!!! Its still unfortunate that IE downgraded or lost its ability to run android-style web browsing, but the UC Browser took care of it! I pinned that on my start now. I dont need it for attachment as much, I like the stock email in windows phone, but need gmail web when...
