Anyone know how to save WiFi network on the phone ? I am tired of entering password again and again.

I'm on HTC8S, I updated my phone, changed to 'Save all apps to SD' option, and now when I restart my phone I am getting error message saying, SD card seems to be corrupted, and we recommend to fix the problems, Yes/No? After I select No, it starts normally.
HOwever, sometimes the apps I installed and run from SD card are pretty laggy or not working properly. They are freezing and when I come back to tart screen, swipe left to see list of apps, there are just black icons and I cannot run any app. It gets to normal after few seconds, but it really is not comfrotable.

Other than that:

1. Lync 2013 - doesn't work. It's just strting up and then fall back to start screen
2. Skype - doesn't work. It never signs in while using my ussual account details
3. Bing Sport - my phone restarted while I was installing the app and it now cannot be re-installed again.
4. IE - Advanced settings not working. Simply launch IE, go to Settings, scroll down and press advanced settings. It falls back to IE window, no advanced settings can be changed...
5. Swipe only work for en-us keyboard
6. Alarm gets delayed. Today I set alram to 7AM, but it was actually ringin 7:02AM.

All in all, I am bit dissapointed as I would expect much more. One thing I really do not understand, WP has very low market share in the US and they have all the extra features. Yeah, I know MS is US company, blablabla, but this is business and not a charity. They should serve well to ALL their customers and not only those few US based. :/

heard this for 1st time. once you connect a wifi network entering the password its saved next time you just have to on your wifi and it will connect automatically. i have wifi at home i dont have to enter password again and again until i don't change my wifi password

for your sd card issue use a class 6 or class 10 sd card

for your sd card issue use a class 6 or class 10 sd card

And even then, the Class 6 is still laggy. It works but stuttering and lagging are common if you save apps on Class 6 SD Card.

Anyone had an issue with message syncing? I changed my message settings to 'Download all messages', and it's just been stuck syncing for a whole day, with multiple restarts...

After I had a hard-reset I still had all of my old messages. So no, I'm not experiencing your bug. Try soft-resetting your phone?

I tried installing on my old class 4 SD card and it works and doesn't even lag.

The update is screwed. So you are not alone.
It just shows:
"Couldn't open that. Try again"

SInce updating to windows 8.1, i see another folder pop up, called Other Pictures, with whatsapp pics shared and i cant find it on the memory card anywhere. Anyone having same problem?

Same problem with me..btw which app aare you using for navigation in Mumbai ??

Oddness with existing office365 email account. Live tile gone, can't pin it again. Appears in notifications however. Too scared to try recreating account as i can't lose this email

Phew, the tile wasn't gone, it had moved all by itself to the bottom of the list. The icon was different so I didn't spot it at first.
