    I keep coming back to Windows Phone

    I used to love WP, especially 8.1. W10M never really worked for me so I left. As others have already stated, I'm not glued to a brand until I die. If it works for me, I use it, if it become a pain in the neck (to remain polite) I ditch it. I still have my 930 to test new updates but I have to...

    Hi Ruben, The clock tile is made with TimeMe Tile app. Not the most user friendly app for sure but it's completely free and you can tweak a lot of things.

    Here's my "new" startscreen. After trying different styles,I still find myself going back to a clean, simple and uncluttered layout.I used a grey-ish background instead of plain black to give a "flatter" feel while the black background gives more pop.

    The clock app is called TimeMe. Not the most ergonomic app to use but for a free app, you do have a quite a lot of customization at your fingertips.

    You can easily create blank tiles with the app called Start perfect. However, the tiles are either black, white or transparent. However, to match my background color, I had to go through a few more steps: 1. Use Tile perfect to create a wallpaper of the color of your choice (solid color) 2...

    Always liked the simplicity of Windows phone and I keep mine as simple and sober as possible. Even if my Lumia 930 is not my main phone anymore, I still keep it to test W10M Here's my new test. Using the same patterns I used in the past but with a colored background (grey-ish). I'll try some...

    WM10 release build (10584.164) issues and solutions

    I did re-install the insider app. Of course, I had to re-join the program. Chose Production and checked for update... nothing. I had to actually select Fast Ring first and then choose Production to trigger the update. The update however was fairly lightweight, about 280Mo so not sure if...

    WM10 release build (10584.164) issues and solutions

    I actually opt out of the insider program a couple months ago as it was a disaster (when I rolled back to 8.1). I simply used the upgrade advisor app to get the update. Windows Insider wasn't even installed on my phone... No T-mobile nor AT&T, unlocked european phone here.

    WM10 release build (10584.164) issues and solutions

    Add another lumia 930 to the list. I updated from 8.1 and did not performed a hard reset yet as it's also my work phone and I need my phone to be "working" until the end of the month. 1. wifi connectivity is crap. I have to reboot everyday to connect to Wifi - my old lumia 920 does not suffer...

    Frustrated owner of a 930 - Why isn't it better than the iPhone 6?

    I usually emphasize the fact that i'm strictly talking regarding my own and only experience. I did not do that here and I apologize for this. "The experience has always been terrible, for me". I always try not to generalize as I know the situation is different for other people. What is striking...

    Frustrated owner of a 930 - Why isn't it better than the iPhone 6?

    I actually understand the OP quite well as I followed the same route. Happy 920 owner moving to a 930 and there it was... a supposed flagship that doesn't work better than my 3 year old 920... Wifi issues, 3G issues, overheating, inconsistent double tap to wake, no glance and so on. I'm simply...

    Win a Lumia 950 XL from Windows Central!

    I'm not interested in the phone. If I win, I won't claim the prize and will choose randomly someone in this thread to get it!
