Read that no sim problem continues in the new buildAnyone brave enough to try the new build 10052. I got burned by the previous build (the No SIM problem) so just curious![]()
Read that no sim problem continues in the new build
I've been using it mostly as a GPS for on my scooter/motorcycle and battery drain is pretty bad. I never used it on 8.1, so I'm not sure if it's TP10 or usual. I can ride for about 30-45 minutes on a full charge before it's down to ~20%.
Do you have any other connectivity turned on during these rides? I've used my 928 in the back country as a GPS in airplane mode for 6-8 hours and will still have about 30-35% left after that time. I'm wondering if the 928 is trying to find cell or WiFi coverage?
If you are in airplane mode and this is the power consumption, that's pretty excessive.
Anyone planning on putting this week's build on their 928? Kinda interested in the interactive live tiles. Can't recall if that is going to be available for this release or not. I've got the previous build on a test device and it seems to be working well enough.
Anyone?
The story (rumor?) I've heard is that the chipset supports FM, but requires an additional connection to the headphone jack (to use connected headphones as an FM antenna) that is not soldered on the 928. I don't have a source for that handy, though.
I installed the latest Fast Ring build on a test 928. Radio doesn't work. I thought the 928 didn't have FM radio hardware?
Is there a particular app you want to test with?
