Re: BUILD 10166 : BUGS Thread
I installed the Build 10166 today on my
Lumia 925.
So far, it's been working ok. The performance is not so good, it feels like 30% slower than WP8.1 (sometimes, a little bit more - remembers me of my old Lumia 710), but I didn't do a hard reset, just soft ones.
About bugs, it's pretty useable. What I've seen so far:
- When I unlock the phone, it takes some time (0,5s~1,5s or so) to get to the start screen.
- I couldn't change the background image directly from the Config menu. I went to the Photos app and chose it there, since then it's been working both ways.
- Pinning apps to the start screen sometimes is really lagged, taking more than 10 seconds for them to appear. Also, moving them around is really slow.
- Live Tiles (Photos, News, Weather, Translator, Windows Central) sometimes do not appear, mainly when I restart the phone. After a while (or after opening the apps) they come back to life.
- People App live tile sometimes moves strangely and the photos get all messy, I don't know if it's supposed to work this way.
- Should the Groove Music live tile show the album cover when playing? It's not happening here.
- The "Screen Lock" App is really slow to load, even though everything it does is adding a lock screen button on Start (I broke my physical button and it hardly works now
). Maybe other app with this function should do it well.
- Cortana is not working. The cellphone language, region and everything else is German, but she says she doesn't speak it, even though I used it without problems on 8.1. I live actually in Brazil, maybe it has to do with it or, once again, a hard reset can solve it.
- Zbox Music Player is not working. When I open it, it crashes.
- Waze doesn't work also.
- I cannot unlock the phone with the camera button. If I do so, it crashes and goes back to the start screen with the unfunctional live tiles (It's been already reported here in previous pages).
- I've been using it since I installed, so I cannot really say my battery drained, but it seems bad, it's in 18% already, being the 82% used in 3 hours.
The good side:
- Daily use things are working great. PIN unlock, camera, flashlight, screen, sound, Glance screen, double tap to wake, everything flawless. I can even configure the glance screen (I've read it wasn't working properly sometimes) and the camera actually seems faster than on 8.1!
- Photos App is slow and sometimes crashy but is pretty useable (although I didn't quite like it).
- Weather, News, Money, Calendar, Mail, OneDrive, Skype, Office previews, all working perfect (besides the aforementioned Live Tiles).
- All configs working as they should.
- All other apps working without problems.
About using it in your daily driver...that's what I'm doing
if you don't use your phone for things like work or something that requires it to be completely functional, I can say it can get pretty well. I hope this can help other 925 users (remembering that mine is a Brazilian one, running Cyan (it had the "fake" Denim before the update), so it can bevahe differently for other users) since I feel it's quite renegade and not so easy to find information about its use on Windows 10.
