Just bought a battery for my S3 because my L640 is driving me nuts with each new OS build. As of now with the most recent build this phone has never performed worse. I understand it's not the case for the majority of users but that's how it has been with me so I'll go back to Android as a...

I continually have to get on my android tablet to access outlook mail because it refuses to work on my 640. That's sad. Messenger frequently closes and if it's not closing down on me then it's not allowing me to attach photo's. Sometimes it takes several attempts and if that doesn't work then I...

I just got an email today even though I've already opted in. The whole thing is obnoxious and I'm just gonna find another primary storage solution. MS is so spread out they get so careless with particular segments of customers. It's also further confirmation to ditch Windows Mobile as a primary...

For those of us who don't recall reading this email how do we know if we will be affected by this reduction? Currently, my account is showing 9.74 GB used of the available 30 GB. I get that we had a grace period to set things right, but it would be nice to have a way to confirm whether or not we...

I agree with that solution. Subscriptions are often promoted as being a convenience for the consumer but we see through that bull. The only practical reason I can see MS offering only a subscription based plan is because of the dilemma of what to do with all the stored content when/if an...

I hear ya brother (sister?)! This is exactly my issue with the change. I hate adding all of these little subscriptions to my life. I mean it's clear why they're doing it, because they'll make far more money doing that than offering a one time purchase for a smaller amount of space. It's similar...

I still find myself getting into arguments with people who say software should be free or with people who exclusively download/stream copyrighted media content illegally. The developers of this stuff have to get paid. It's just illogical to expect it for free. My only issue with the storage...

In my previous post I mentioned how it would have been proper to continue supporting media content backup for Lumia phones with the same 15 GB since they were promoting OneDrive as a key feature for the phones. I specifically said MS doesn't owe us general storage. Considering the mess that...

Another thing I think deserves being pointed out is that a lot of people aren't necessarily concerned with the cost of buying cloud storage at $2/mo, but rather they don't like the thought of adding yet another subscription to their life. I know I'm in that category. I hate to think I have all...

It really is kind of bait and switch when you consider they marketed OneDrive so heavily to promote the Lumia phones. I'm not saying it's illegal, but rather simply unethical. I'm not the type to expect free stuff. The issue here is I don't really consider OneDrive to fall in that category when...

Great! Thanks guys! I'll start looking into those, giving extra attention to the 830. I used to have an 822 when I was on Verizon and I remember how I preferred that body style to the 820, which I ended up with before getting the 920. The curved corners just felt better in the hand and I...

Curious what models (starting 2015) you guys consider is an upgrade over the 920. I understand the 920 is old, but there are so many budget models being released now it's kind of hard to keep track of what is actually more powerful and full featured. If it's mostly a matter of considering...

My version of pinning Live Tiles to the Taskbar would involve having a separate horizontal scrolling window you toggle on or off. The vertical height might be a maximum of 3x the Taskbar height and it holds only one row of Tiles. It would rest right on top of the Taskbar. This would probably...

Immediately upon installing 10049 I can't get Spartan to operate. First of all, it was never pinned to the task bar so I did that myself. That already got me suspicious. Then whenever I try to open it all I get is a blue background with the globe logo and then it closes after 5 to 10 seconds...
