Windows Central Question
Hi Everybody,
I have a Lumia 950, which I really like, when it works. However, as time goes by, it is becoming more and more lumpy and more and more features are just not working. As an example:
- Living images don't work
- Phone settings don't sync with my Win 10 PC
- Phone gets very hot and frequently resets
- Mobile hotspots refuses pretty much all connection requests
- Whenever I take a photo, "adding finishing touches" comes up on the screen when I try to view/share/edit/delete the image, and stays there a long time.
The way I see it, the 3-4 Windows updates that have been rolled out since I got the phone in February have done little to improve the situation, so I'm left wondering whether or not I just carry out a complete hard reset and start again. But that leaves three questions:
- Will my Windows build revert to the one that was on the phone when I got it out of the box?
- Will I miss the alleged Anniversary update that is being promised (which might fix all these issues... [sceptical]?
- Is it worth the hassle, or is it best to simply go on with the phone as it is and not bother with Windows 10 again?
The last option would be really disappointing because I like it as an interface and a platform for my work, but the unreliability is making it difficult to stick loyally to the project.
Thanks for your time,
AGS
