    Why are you leaving Windows Mobile over OneDrive storage reductions?

    One word: trust. Former Zune HD user. Lumia 928 user. Was seriously considering 950xl, but holding back since I'm on VZW, plus, lack of apps for some important stuff I would like to do. Not sure where WP is heading in the future. It's obvious the whole program is lagging up to this point. The...

    928 update

    I notice my 928 shows the Lumia Denim update in extras and info. Not sure if this is a false alarm since the extras and info update seems to be giving some false readings. Can anyone confirm?

    Skype Today is Unimaginative and Unnatural

    I'll just leave it a this: Skype makes it harder to sell several in my family on the virtues of WP8 over IOS.

    Lumia 928 on T-Mobile

    I can confirm the hard reset after gsm to get LTE back on VZW. I had no problems using two different gsm carriers in Europe, but had no LTE after hitting the States and putting my VZW sim into the phone.

    Tether-x?

    For those of you who have unlimited data on VZW and only tether "occasionally" you should know the hotspot "feature" can be activated and deactivated on a pro rata daily basis. Use the VZW app or you can do it on the web. A day of use is a buck. Not the most convenient granted, but a good...

    Heading for Eurozone -- What do I need to know for best 928 experience?

    Thought I'd follow up with my experiences using the 928 in Europe. First, the phone worked with no problems for voice, text or data. I bought a Vodafone prepaid data SIM at the Prague airport. Around $20 for 5/gig of data. I used Skype for my voice calls and the quality was good. I was...

    Using the 928 in Thailand

    I've been exploring the same issues for a European trip I'm planning. It looks to me like many of the prepaids you order over the internet cost as much or more than just getting VZW's International option: $30/for reduced per minute phone cost and 100mb of data. Additional data is $25/100mb...

    New to Nokia 928 and Windows 8.

    If you are on unlimited data you probably now have unlimited hotspot with LTE. The 3g unlimited data only had a 2 gig add on feature and cost $20/mo. The unlimited is $30/mo in addition to your $30/mo data plan. Just a tip, since hotspot is a feature it can be turned on or off using the...

    Build Quality

    I'd say about 1 out of every 10 consumers is defective. How that extrapolates into any given consumer issue is for each of us to figure out.

    Pictures / Video taken with your 928

    Re: Pictures/Videos taken with your 928! Shot some 720p video at a wedding yesterday. Not the brightest room. I'm very impressed. I shoot video semi-professionally using a Sony AX2000, Nex5n and have used various flavors of Flips. The video picture quality with the Lumia 928 more than holds...

    Group Messaging?

    Do you suppose the NSA is paying VZW .20/text message or do they have the unlimited plan?
