My first post! I don't know what was included in the latest update but my phone is going a little crazy just now.
1. All my predictive text got wiped - I had just got to the stage where my phone was recognising my name, address, etc and lots of my frequently used personal things were there. All gone and some of the new suggestions are just plain stupid. How far into the word 'something' do you need to type before predictive text guesses what word you mean? Apparently right to the very end!!
2. My emails suddenly started making a strange notification noise when I have it set to no sound and I've had to change it to the quietest sound I can find just to stop the long, loud, annoying sound that my phone suddenly decided to use.
3. I no longer have a battery icon on lock screen when my phone is charging so last night when I thought my phone was charging overnight on its little wireless base, turns out it wasn't. I would have been able to see this at a glance before.
4. My instagram app also appears to have given up the ghost - I know this is separate from the phone but coming on top of the other issues, it's annoying.
I do have new emojis, and the random restarts appear to have gone so that's something positive.
I was excited to get the 950 (this will be my third Lumia) but I have to say I'm not loving it as much as I loved my 930. I live in an ios and android house, so this is the only place I can confess this guilty secret... :wink:
Thanks for the chance to rant about relatively minor (but incredibly annoying) issues :smile:
