    Should I get another expansys for my Lumia 930?

    Lumia 930 from EXPANSYS.ca Hi guys, I am suddenly very interested in getting the lumia 930. The 1020 I have is still my favourite camera phone whenever i need it. It is unmatched by anything else. Its just sad that microsoft hasn't bothered to make a new faster version of the 41mp phone...

    Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10052

    Nice to finally see I can enable data on my lumia 1020 after I shut it off before updating to wp10. Unfortunately, I am sad to see that my favourite transparent tiles are not back yet. :( Still waiting and hoping. Not to mention...Lumia 1020 performance is still terrible.

    Paint chipping off surface 2

    I must say though...there is a reason why apple stuff is preferred. Trying to setup the new surface 2 and it came with 8.1...but with still skydrive installed. It is now stuck on an 8.1 update ..last one I think and again..still skydive and no way to change to one drive.

    Paint chipping off surface 2

    Hey guys, Just a FYI. There seems to be a "painted" / "plated" layer on the surface 2. I took it on my hiking trip last month and my backpack wasn't as waterproof as I expected. The water soaked in and got on the surface...entered the ports etc. It didn't turn on at all until it dried. But...

    Um, What do I do now?

    Thanks. Will try it out. But there is no way this can brick the phone right?

    Um, What do I do now?

    Hey guys, Good to see this thread. I bought a used white Lumia 1020 on Kijiji which ended up with TELUS network which I wanted to switch over. Long story short, the phone was a developer/demo unit which wouldn't update to 8.1 or any other updates because it's IMEI is not on the Nokia server. I...

    Screen Protector for lumia 1020 Needed?

    Yeah... for 5$ I highly recommend it. I have read a lot about GG3 being prone to scratches. In fact there is a video on youtube talking about how the 1020 can get microscratches on the screen with careful use. For a phone I want to keep for a while until the next Lumia 55mp replacement comes...

    Nokia Lumia 1020 Bugs and Defects

    Yeah. It has been a week since then, haven't had it occur again. I have only 2 months left on warranty, so if I get it again, I am going to send it in for repair.

    Nokia Lumia 1020 Bugs and Defects

    I had my first big "BSOD" bug on the lumia 1020. Not a BSOD...but almost like it. I received a call.. talked and was about to hang up...and when I removed the phone from the side of my face, the screen came on as white with black dots. Almost the same look as a TV screen that is not receiving...

    Nokia 808 ex-users are you happy with your lumia 1020?

    I must say, even without using the 808, I probably overhyped the lumia 1020 for myself. Partly also due to nokia's own marketing. The pics/videos showed video/pics with insanely low noise levels. The lumia no doubt takes great pics, better than my iPhone 5, but for sure, its noise is still an issue.

    Anyone running 8.1.1 update?

    I'm running DP version on my rogers lumia 1020. It seems to be fine. I love the folders. best folder implementation among smartphones. However I do notice some occasional sluggishness when I press the windows key to return to main screen. I guess dual core is not going to cut it as we move forward.
