    Ten disappointing things about Windows 10 :(

    Honestly I haven't kept up with any Microsoft related news recently. I found this thread simply because I was searching for any thread mentioning the keylogger or other privacy issues. I think people either don't realize or care... The problem isn't just "what if a hacker got access to it", I...

    [APP] ME hub

    (Please let this be the right forum) :) Hello everyone! -=-INTRO-=- I recently started trying to learn how to make windows phone apps. I've come to windows phone from android (back when ICS was the newest thing), and to my surprise Windows Phone did not have any way to save your own contact...

    Best App for Podcasts?

    For me, the default Podcast app does the job.. I remember using Podcaster | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States) back on WP7 though.

    Cyan on 920, not impressed ...

    Hey there. Although I do not have your phone model, for Cortana I would try following this guide: Activate Cortana alpha version in India, Canada, and Australia | Windows Phone Central For Internet Explorer.....as far as I know (and I might be wrong) the problem lies with websites just ignoring...

    foobar2000 finally coming to WP8 (as well as iOS/Android)

    This could be interesting. The more choice we have for media player, the better :) On the other hand, it has been a while since I used the PC version, and I couldn't even get it to sync with my Windows Phone 8, so I have kinda given up on them...

    SMS as pop-up alert?

    So a friend just sent me a text (SMS), and instead of appearing in the thread of our conversation on the messaging hub, I got some sort of alert on my screen. Does anyone know what this is? I attached a screenshot so you know what I mean. The message was sent from an iPhone. As you can see I got...

    Idea: Control WP8 from W8

    Hey, So GDR1 for 8.1 is out and we have gotten support for 'accessory apps' (although, as far as I know, there still isn't an actual 100% compatible smart watch out there..)

    (Xbox?) Video App - Categorizing

    So I just switched from my WP7.8 Device to a Lumia 820. I installed the dev. preview and am happy so far, however there is one thing that is bugging me: Every video seems to be a "personal video". Back when I used to have my WP7 device, I would sync it with Zune and my TV shows would...

I have enabled podcasts for my region by editing the xml files on my phone, as well as set the download limit to 999mb instead of 50mb. While this works perfectly for...

    Welcome to WP Central :) I don't know about you specific phone but you probably can update it, and with "unlocked" I assume you mean carrier unlock?
