    Win a Lumia 950 XL from Windows Central!

    Could definitely do with a new phone!

    Win a Lumia 950 or Lumia 950 XL in the Windows Central Fa-la-la-liday Contest!

    I'd love one of these. 950XL, with leather Mozo cover... perfect. And a continuum dock plugged into my TV!

    Weird issues with Surface Pen and OneNote

    Yeah it's working fine right now. Weird. It seems to be more likely to cause issues when the Surface has just been turned on, and OneNote hasn't been launched since boot.

    Surface Pro 3 Plus

    I only recently got a Surface Pro 3 (on the cheap!) but I've been using the keyboard from my old Surface RT as I've not wanted to buy a new one until the new stuff was released. If the Pro 4's keyboard works with the Pro 3, is it worth ordering that over the normal Pro 3 one? Do all versions of...

    Weird issues with Surface Pen and OneNote

    I've recently got a Surface Pro 3 (long story- but it was very cheap!) and I'm loving it. Especially OneNote, and the clicking the pen top to launch it. However, recently that function has stopped working. The pen is still connected- it shows up in the Bluetooth settings, and double clicking it...

    Unlocking 830, and debranding?

    The problem is that it's a second-hand handset, and EE are a pain! I think I'll just go into the shop and see what they can do, I might be able to borrow a SIM card for 5 minutes.

    Unlocking 830, and debranding?

    My sister's 830 has been playing up, but it's locked to EE, and I don't have a spare EE SIM and I'm not sure if the problems are SIM or phone related. I've flashed it from the EE variant to the unbranded GB Country Variant, but the SIM lock remains. I thought that the SIM lock was removed when...

    Prevent streaming on mobile data?

    Is there a way of preventing Xbox Music from streaming stuff over mobile data, while allowing it to work over WiFi? If not I believe I can just prevent it from doing so permanently by turning off the 'Sync my online collection' button in the settings?

    Bluetooth Audio in Car

    Dunno, I have no problems streaming to the unit in my car (VW RMT 200) or my mum's Skoda (the standard VW Group 9w7 unit, in cars from around 2010 to now), and of course it works flawlessly with my Nokia MD-12 speaker which came free with my 930! So WP8.1 is perfectly capable of streaming

    Dropped my phone...and now the volume button isn't working right. Oops

    It's now gone back to normal. Weird. But saves me a lot of annoyance!

    My Lumia 930 on fast track win insider program not getting update 2, what should I do?

    Re: Lumia 930 on fast track win insider program not getting update 2 I believe it was pulled, it wasn't supposed to be released. Not sure though.

    Dropped my phone...and now the volume button isn't working right. Oops

    Yeah that's what I feared. I popped the back off (it's really easy- I was contemplating getting an orange back cover anyway so saw the how-to online). I don't want to fiddle, but it all looks fine IMO. The button looks no different to the volume down, which works fine. I think I'll just live...

    Dropped my phone...and now the volume button isn't working right. Oops

    My lovely, pristine, Lumia 930 slipped out of my pocket getting in the car this morning, and fell onto the hard concrete of the drive. I've only had it 3 weeks since the insurance replaced the one I lost! Anyway, it held up remarkably well, with just a couple of little dings in the aluminium rim...

    Latest preview Stuck at 30%

    I've been having this issue, but I've got 96.7GB free on my Windows 10 partition. It just sits there at 30%. Very confused. While at 30% it does seem to do something, as it sits with the hard disk light flashing away for a while, but then the flashing stops. I left it going overnight, and when I...

    Network issues?

    Tried 3 different computers- 2 PCs and a Mac- all worked fine with my 930 and didn't with her 830. In the USB part of the Settings menu it just said that it was charging slowly. Tried restarting the phone, with different SIM card (not got an EE one around, but it recognised my O2 one and didn't...
