Ye thread banai he is liye gae hai ke logon ko pata chale that we exist.

Normal citizens of both countries wanna live together as cousins, but these politicians and armies won't let us. Udher se ISI toh idher se RAW, saala jine nahi degein yea log Hume.

Pakistan me bhi Lumia users hain? Mujhe aaj pata chala.

Really? I know plenty of people who use Lumia. Three people in my family do.

Same, me and two of my aunts, convincing my mother to get a 535 as well (the same her sisters/my aunts own) :-D

That's cool.
I have only seen three actual people excluding me with a windows phone in my life.

My mom doesn't know a thing about smartphones. She even often has problems with her Nokia 1800.

That's shockingly low. :/ what do people around you use? Android or iPhone?

Lol, parents and their aversion to smartphones. I talked my father into getting a 630 and forcefully handed my mother a Nexus 4. It took them a while but now they're learning nicely. Now they send me 'educational' videos/pics on WhatsApp and it's so weird

Android and Symbian.

At least my dad knows much about smartphones and computers. Not nearly as much as me though.
And educational pics/videos, somehow I can't think of any right now.

 

[alinauman97]

Pretty much the same over here. I convinced three friends to try Windows Phone. And about five others at my school have one. Rest all use iPhone or Android.

 

[Fire 29]

First one was a stranger/ customer at the local General store. The second was my cousin. And the Third were a friend of my dad. That's it.

Actually it was after seeing and using my cousin's Lumia for a few minutes that I thought that my first smartphone will be Lumia.

 

[alinauman97]

I started looking up smartphones back in 2011, and the Samsung Focus series (Windows Phone 7) immediately caught my eye. I wanted one of those to be my first smartphone. Then the Lumia series was announced and in early 2013, I almost bought a 710. Finally, later that year, I got a 520.

"Almost bought a 710"?

Yeah, I didn't buy it. Windows Phone 8 was already out and the 710 wasn't going to get the update.

I'm so greedy for the 640 but can't afford it right now.

I am trying to save up for the (hopefully) improved and incoming 840. And I am failing miserably at that saving student budgets, and that kinda thing. I might also consider whatever the next flagship is. I'll get it after a 3-4 months of release tho, so that the prices are lower. If I'm getting a WP, it might as well have OIS, Glance, AMOLED, etc. the kinda things that make WP stand out... lol.

I think, if you can find an 830 for a good deal, you should prefer it to the 640. It's better in almost every way that counts.

I don't have big needs when it comes to smartphones. A 640 would be good enough for me.
I still do some stuff on my 620 that people aren't able to do on their S4. Like taking cool pics or glance, double tap or word play keyboard.

 

[Fire 29]

My lock screen.

 

[KhawarNadeem]

My lock screen.

Yes, my sister showed that mother's day lockscreen to me yesterday. It made me melt. Adorable :3

True enough, when it comes to Lumias, flagship isn't always better (I think 830 > 930). But the 830 is older now, and there are already rumors of it being discontinued in production, so I am going to hold out. Besides the 830, I haven't seen a Lumia that is as pretty as the 925... and call me shallow but looks matter to me. So I will wait patiently.

So I changed my phone's region settings to US and nothing significant happened. Where's Cortana? I also searched the store but still nothing. Also tried tap and hold the search button.

Do into Speech settings and download and install the package for English (US). Cortana also needs Location enabled to work. You'll automatically get the live tile on the home screen when she's ready to work.
