Glance on 635

[mbranscum]

Just picked up a 635 for ATT and learned it doesn't have glance. If I downloaded windows developer version of the is would that give me this feature?

No it won't. It's something about the screen used on this phone that doesn't allow for glance to work. What a shame. Otherwise it's a great phone. I do miss that glance from my old Lumia 925 though!

No it wouldn't. Glance is about hardware more precisely the glass screen. OS version and software doesn't matter.

What is Glance? I have never heard of this.

what is covering the screen doesn't matter, its the actual display itself.

In short, its a clock that can be displayed when the phone is off. it can display notifications at a glance without having to hit the power button.
its quite nice.

You're correct.
