BUILD 10166: Changes, Improvements, Bugs

BUG:

After a few days all the alarm sound options went missing and I no longer hear any alerts when the time has come for an alarm. This is huge for me and although I enjoy this build, I need an alarm. Sadden that I will have to look at a third party app for such a basic function.
 
heres a bug i have mentioned on another thread! yesterday my phone lost signal after a while i assumed it was the phone not the network. after restart and it may not be related i had many issues with apps. see screen shot! nearly every app had this error except a few key MS ones. the error stopped HERE working etc, this being one i can not re download. the others fixed themselves after uninstalling a downloading. it must be a license thing?

I hard reset in the end! took hours to sort out!108531d1436889863t-wp_ss_20150714_0002.png
 
found a workaround i hope for glance screen access. if you go to store/my library and open your apps up and scroll to bottom where it list apps that i no longer available you will see glance. when you open it it should refresh and say "open" doing this made a notification come up to restart. still not in menus but when i did the same again and opened, it took me to glance settings!

i recall it doing a glance update after the hard reset but i went to menus and it had gone but as above if this has happen to you? screen shots attached!

The alarms app was updated recently and now you can choose your ringtone in the app (amongst your music or ringtones). Make sure to reconfigure your alarm(s), this has solved the issue for some users.

New 830, up to date Denim. Updated to 10166 without a hitch.
the "Loading..." screen.

had this on mine too even after hard reset. What helped on mine was removing all tiles so everything would fit onto a single page. I also removed all folders. Reboot and the ...loading.. was gone.
I then added tiles and folders back one by one and could not fine the culprit. I have all important tiles and folders back and no more ....loading... showing up. Some people believe it is related to a tile with a weblink that was created in a previous version of IE (remnant from a restore from a backup e.g.).
Another thing that worked for me was to invoke the feedback site, let it open and the tap the home button and it would go to the start screen. Others found similar workarounds (like Cortana).

I've been using it since release and I am pretty happy with it on my L830.

Loving it on my 930 as well. Runs smoothly and looks beautiful. I really miss "hey Cortana" though. :'(
 
I found some improvement in the latest Photo app update today. We can choosing background and lock screen picture directly from each photo from our Photo app, and from file manager also. Good to know that they're listening to us.
 
Bugs that detract from my overall experience:

Outlook app has issues with Exchange and Gmail accounts.
When sharing to Outlook, attachments do not appear. But when I send an email they attach regardless of recipient.
Landscape rotation behavior unpredictable
Keyboard behavior unpredictable
Camera button does not unlock screen
Cannot view or install glance/system apps
Torch toggle keeps my camera on
Start screen image has a panoramic bug when used as a background.

Overall very solid build. Now I am using it as my daily driver :)

That mirrors the experience on my L1520 almost exactly. The rotation behavior drives me nuts. It was bad already in 8.1, where apps in landscape would relaunch in portrait before realizing that they had to slowly turn to landscape. In WP10 apps seem to assume portrait until the phone changes orientation. Super annoying when the phone is in a dashboard mount: coming back to e.g. Garmin you'd have to take the phone out of the holder to fix the orientation.
 
Don't know if this has been mentioned but video playback is quite choppy on my l1020. Its almost a frame by frame playback. This is at the highest recording resolution. Changing to the lower resolution works fine.

What app do you use to play the video?
