    Bioshock

    Maybe I was not fully clear in my post. The first thing I did when I got my Surface Pro was to get the latest version of Games for Windows Live from Microsoft as I had a bunch of purchased games via this service. I had no problems with any game but Bioshock 2. I will remove it and download it...

    Bioshock

    Also, trying to play a real PC game without an external mouse (or Xbox controller) just does not work. It is like the touchscreen is causing some weird inteferance and my onscreen character just turns on himself/herself (tested with Red Faction and Saints Row 2)

    Bioshock

    I cannot get Bioshock 2 to work. Now I got Bioshock 2 from Games for Windows Live. I download the installer and it indicated that the install failed. But I can start-up Bioshock no problem. The issue is that it is looking for an activation key and GFWL refuses to provide a key as it is...

    Smudged Windows Logo

    I hate ressurecting dead threads, but wanted to provide an update. My Surface RT logo is completely gone. The only thing that remains is a very faint dark impression where the logo once resided. I am fine with this. Now I just purchased the 128GB Surface Pro and so far the logo is still...

    I'm honestly afraid of my L920...

    I have the exact same fear. I am always extra careful. PS/ I do not want to blemish the look with a crappy case.

    Lumia 920 battery life without LTE?

    Mine connects with LTE and last charge netted me 5 days of usage. Not sure how LTE is considered a battery drain. Maybe I will bring it down to 3G and still if I can get a full week.

    Happy Lumia 920 & WP8 users Club

    Re: Happy Lumia 920 users Club The Lumia 920 in my opinion is the ultimate Windows Phone. I came from the HD7 which served its purpose, but the Lumia 920 simply is in a class of its own. Add me as a proud member of this club.

    frustrating trying to find accessories for 920 in Canada

    I could not locate a single wireless charging stand anywhere in Canada. I sent Nokia an email and they told me to view the accessories on their website. Kind of useless as I cannot purchase from that site and I already knew what I wanted. I ended finding a wireless charging stand at an ATT7T in...

    Nokia 920 - A day in the life:

    LTE enabled. I have most common settings, but always ensure that apps do not run in the background and have a single email account that syncs once an hour.

    Nokia 920 - A day in the life:

    I would call this a dud and return it. I have not experienced any issues or problems since I received my Lumia 920 about 3 weeks ago. In fact, my phone just died on me, after more than 5 days without a recharge (and I do use it). The Lumia is a great phone, just you got a bad one. Return it and...

    Did your battery life change after the last update?

    I had already performed after two weeks. I did not notice significant change. But this charge will not give up the ghost. It now has been 4 Days and 10 hours since my last charge and the battery is now down to only 12%. I wonder if it will last the day. Indifferent of the cause, it is awesome.

    Matte Black Scratches Easily

    I have had my phone (matte black) now for close just over two weeks and not a single scratch on it. And it is in and out of my pocket several times daily.

    Did your battery life change after the last update?

    I am not sure what happened to my phone, but I will tell you my story. So stay a while and listen. Since I got my Lumia 920, I got great battery life. On average I could get by 1.5 days between charges with moderate use. Last Friday, I used my phone at 1:13PM and the battery indicated around...

    Nokia and Microsoft really f-ing blew it.

    I am not sure who screwed up, but when you have an official phone launch, there should be phones available to be had. I was lucky enough to get my Lumia 920 only a couple weeks after Rogers launched the phone in Canada. I had to switch carriers to get one and I had to settle for black, but I...

    Lumia 920 battery - Your opinions

    Re: lumia 920 Battery Issues Prior to getting my Lumia, I read about the poor battery performance and was worried about getting one. Then I read a poll that indicated that the majority got good battery life. Given that good, poor and bad are subjective terms, I went ahead and got my phone. The...
