    Power button won't lock phone

    Totally agree. This is unprecedented. I told people for years to not worry about installing from the Store and this is no longer true. This seems bigger than what is presented in the Windows Central article. People in these forums will simply tell you to do a hard reset (which does work)...

    Lumia 1020 photo upload still broken in Cyan!

    Figured I'd throw my work around out there for this in case anyone is interested. I went ahead and installed the Dropbox app "CloudSix for Dropbox" by Rudy Huyn (a great winphone dev). This app auto uploads pictures (the oversampled ones) when connected to WIFI, charging, and 90% power. You can...

    Lumia 1020 photo upload still broken in Cyan!

    Totally agree. This really stinks. I read this was coming (in dev preview) however hoped they would have an option or something with Cyan. Looks like I'll be using a cable until this is fixed.

    How to add captions to photos (for Facebook)

    Nearest I can tell this functionality has gone missing in 8.1. I always upload my pics/vids to the "Mobile uploads" directory in OneDrive and then share out to family and some friends. Now it appears you upload to the "Friends" directory instead (ok, fine). However, there is no longer a box to...

    Nokia Maps is a giant step backwards

    I've also have not been happy with Nokia Maps in MA/NH USA. However there is a really nice trick to get a shortcut to Bing maps on your start screen. 1. Open IE, got to Bing Maps - Driving Directions, Traffic and Road Conditions 2. You'll see Bing maps open. Push the back button, you'll see...

    speech to text issue/network

    Just so everyone is clear, this is only an issue for me when using Cellular Data. If I'm using WiFi then it works just fine.

    speech to text issue/network

    I noticed this yesterday afternoon (Nashua, NH) and thought it had something to do with the update I pushed onto my phone. However I just verified today that a phone that has not been updated also has this issue.

    Discussion on tutorial for force-updating to 8107

    Thanks so much! I swear I tested this against a phone that had not been updated and it worked. I just checked again and it is broken as well. I must have still had WiFi on when I originally tested. Therefore this issue has nothing to do with this update.

    Discussion on tutorial for force-updating to 8107

    Voice to Text no longer functional over cellullar data connection Initially put this in the comments of the article post, however this really belongs here. I did this for both a Focus and Focus S (AT&T). Everything went fine, however has anyone noticed that speech to text no longer works...
