    Desktop Slideshow Very Broken

    Folks, I'm becoming disheartened with Windows 10. It's far more buggy than many people are willing to admit. That's a post for another day. One of the most obnoxious bugs to me is the broken desktop wallpaper slideshow. The accent color does not change automatically upon the image changing...

    Windows 10 Problems on a Surface Pro 3

    I'm wondering if anyone with a Surface Pro 3 is having the following issues. I just want to know if these are normal or if I should try a reset or reinstallation to see if they resolve. Issues: 1. When using as a tablet and unlocking the lock screen, the keypad for PIN input does not show...

    After first glance of Windows 10 Mobile

    I am also concerned about the development situation. It seems live lock screen does not operate as well as Microsoft thought it would, judging from their in-house efforts. It's unfortunate... I have a great idea for an app in this space. Been learning C# and general development skills since I...

    Cellular Data not working except on IE

    I had a similar issue on a much smaller scale a few months ago. I could not sync my *.edu email address over LTE. Only over WiFi. I asked around and never got an answer from anyone involved (Verizon, my school, Microsoft). After a few weeks, it just worked again. My thinking is that it was...

    Highly Upset Customer - My Issues

    Yeah, issue 13 is a personal preference. And you mean to tell me you haven't even experienced #7? It happens about 60% of the time to me (I will admit, less so since last weeks update, but it did happen on multiple occasions today). And I'd like to add one: 15. When choosing a song from a...

    Highly Upset Customer - My Issues

    I saw the article on here today that said the most recent update fixes the issue of having incorrect/nonexistent album art in Xbox Music, and I was really excited. This has been my main issue with Xbox Music on Windows Phone 8.1. I installed the update and opened it to see... that nothing...

    Dodgy battery or WP8.1?

    Location services is a disaster in 8.1. The steep drop represents about an hour of navigation with Here Drive. You can see the discharge starts shortly before 6 AM and stops at about 7:30. When I started my travels, I was at 98%:

    Outrageous WP review in InfoWorld

    "Given how few apps use Windows Phone's live tiles feature..." That's a pretty unfair remark. I haven't been deprived of live tiles on a majority of apps since WP7 (save for xbox music of course haha).

    What is your perfect device?

    Think Lumia Icon specs (including the 5 inch display) with the 920's design. Make it in gloss yellow and that's mine.

    Well it's been about a month now...

    'twas just a comment on something I found interesting. I'm glad everything worked out though. A newly satisfied Icon user is all that counts!

    Haven't area codes been mandatory since the early 90s? I'm surprised it even let you save a contact without one...

    Is Wifi terrible on all Icons?

    I posted this before, but I think it is worth reiterating: My experience with the Icon is that it severely underestimates the connection quality. Mine constantly has 1 bar or less on the wifi symbol, yet it never loses the connection and speeds remain high. Unless you're losing connection all...
