    W10M Insider Bugs & Defects Thread (pre 10586.164)

    re: W10M Insider Bugs & Defects Thread Noticed that my glance screen suddenly wouldn't appear. At all. Took a lot of trial-and-error, but after some frustrated guessing I discovered that enabling and disabling black-and-white image background in glance screen fixes the issue. Hope that's helpful

    How is your 950Xl battery doing?

    An actually positive post! Within the last 24ish hours, my battery performance has begun stabilizing. Further, the device seems to not be hot to the touch anymore. I'm guessing that the two are related.

    How is your 950Xl battery doing?

    We should get some objective measures of these, then compare them with new battery measures when the next major windows phone debuts. Might put stuff into perspective.

    Lumia 950 Problems from a Patient Fan

    In my 2012 Volvo, my 1520 worked perfectly over bluetooth. Now my 950XL barely works with my car. It's horribly upsetting, as I just got this car.

    Does anyone know what this is?

    I know it's one of those logos, sure, but the "Ready-To-Run" thing is exactly what I'm trying to investigate. :/

    Does anyone know what this is?

    I found an old computer desktop in the basement in my university, and it had a Windows logo for a version I'd never heard of. I Bing'd it. No relevant results. I did a reverse-image search, only got one result: a similar Microsoft logo. Dead end. So, what the hell is "Windows Ready-to-Run"...

    Mobile first, cloud 'second'....

    They're making their fans really angry. Fans bring more customers. See the problem?

    Mobile first, cloud 'second'....

    So, seeing the backlash, anyone thinking they'll reverse direction?

    Their plan all along

    This whole thing seems jarring, short sighted and stupid. This could be as damaging to their PR as the initial reveal of the Xbox One. I'm just horrified.

    Microsoft and their anti-consumer practices

    I really hope they reverse or alter this decision. Why not just use more ad revenue from the OneDrive apps? I fear this is going to do massive damage to the brand.

    I Think I Figured Out Why the Surface Book is so Glitchy At Launch

    and it's actually really a clever, best of a tough situation move by MS. OK, so, what do we know about the release of the Surface Book? First, it was a HUGE surprise. Nobody predicted anything like what was revealed. Except, everyone predicted it. What do I mean? The rumors of the second...

    Windows 10 (PC) installing programs to SD?

    Will threshold 2 in November let users install programs on the SD card? I've searched and searched, but it's been hard to find an answer. I keep getting either hacking tricks or mobile version info.

    Trouble backing up my 1520.3

    So, I have had my stuff backing up consistently for years now, but for the past two months I can't backup my settings and app info. It gets to 99% and then says try again later. Rinse and repeat. Any help?
