    Purchase the 930 or wait for a new flagship?

    I'd definitely wait for the flagship, the 930 has been out in the market for a while now, and when the flagship comes out later this year, you'll really regret not waiting just a little bit longer. Also the new flagships will have all the capabilities for Windows 10 for Phones (At least the...

    Mother's Day?!?!?

    It's just one of the calendars you are synced with. I have both Microsoft and Google accounts and have them show "US Holidays" in the settings in the calendar app.

    Contract is up!? Stay with VZW or switch to AT&T?

    I would probably check if AT&T coverage in your area is as good as Verizon (if not better) before I switch. Also Icon just got Denim and we still dont know if the next flagship will be for all carriers or which ones (if you also are choosing between Icon, 830 or a new flagship). So in my...

    A Grain of Salt? Windows X Build 10009

    I don't necessarily remember off the top of my head but it happens occasionally when just browsing around. Don't get me wrong I want to use IE but I just can't take the inconvenience sometimes. I will admit that it has gotten faster though.

    A Grain of Salt? Windows X Build 10009

    I'm in the same boat, I use Firefox mostly because IE doesn't support extensions like Adblocker (I know IE has the settings to get rid of ads, but I like the ease of just adding it and having it set up). Also IE is sometimes incompatible with a bunch of websites. Hopefully Spartan can have an...

    A Grain of Salt? Windows X Build 10009

    They wouldn't have made brand new icons that were just going to be used as placeholders, like someone said above me they could have just kept the old icons if they wanted placeholders.

    A Grain of Salt? Windows X Build 10009

    Really not liking these new desktop icons, I liked what they did in the very first build with the File Explorer and This PC icons but now they look like they belong on Windows 95.

    All oses look the same now

    Actually in the new build for windows 10 the start menu is expandable and has vertical scrolling instead of horizontal like the start screen. This kind of goes in line with windows phone's vertical scrolling on the start screen.

    Windows 10 tech preview, what could I lose?

    I was able to dual boot, seems to be pretty stable to me, just dont like the UI yet, the icons in the task bar are too small, Cortana's (search box) UI is kinda glitchy looking. Also the new icons for folders and file explorer dont look good either (they took a step back from the file explorer...

    Windows 10 tech preview, what could I lose?

    I have my own question about this I hope you don't mind... Would it be better to use a virtual machine or dual boot the Windows 10 tech preview? Does either case run a risk of losing everything?

    Are you still using a First Gen WP8 device?

    I have an HTC 8X from November 2012, still does the job well but recently started having random reboots and sim card disconnecting problems. However still gonna hold on to it until there's a new Lumia flagship (hopefully soon).
