What's been fixed and what's broken in Windows 10 Mobile build 14342 | Windows Central

Issues? Bugs? Solutions? For all things Build 14342 of W10M. Discuss it all here.

[NOTE]Tip: Check out this thread before posting

Is your device behaving oddly, is something just not right? This is the place for discussion of software and hardware issues!
[TIP]
Here is some useful information you may find yourself needing.
Some issues with responsiveness and app delays can be resolved by either restarting your phone or performing a Soft Reset.

If things get a bit more serious, you may opt to perform a hard reset or software reset.

Lastly, if things really get serious, you may need the Software Recovery Tool to recover your phone back to working order - head over to the Microsoft FAQ Page for more information.

Make sure you check the official Windows 10 Mobile Support Page as well for some of the most common tips and trouble shooting guides.
[/TIP]
[INFO]
Restarting your phone involves turning it off and then turning it on again. Turn off your phone by pressing the power button until you are prompted to "Slide down to power off". Turn your phone on again by pressing the power button until it vibrates.

A soft reset is similar to pressing the reset button in PCs and has the same effect as pulling out the battery of your phone and then putting it back in. For phones with non-removable batteries, press the volume down and power button together until your phone restarts. Be aware that when using Windows 10, the voume down and power button combination will also launch Windows Feedback. Just continue to hold down the buttons for a full 10 seconds in order to trigger the soft reset. For phones with removable batteries, you can either opt for the button combination or remove the battery and then return it.

A hard reset or a software reset will reformat your phone by removing all the user information leaving only the bare OS and firmware currently installed in your phone. It does erase data so you should always keep a good backup of your phone just in case you have to resort to this option.

The software reset can be done by going to your phone Settings > System > About > tap on "Reset your phone." You will be prompted once before doing this just to be sure. Be sure, also, to have everything backed up since there would be no way to recover all of your files.

The hard reset accomplishes the same thing as the software reset, but can be accomplished when the phone is non-responsive and you are unable to enter into settings. To perform the Hard Reset, "Power off the phone > hold Volume Down > press Power > keep holding Volume Down until you see the exclamation (!) screen, then immediately release the Volume Down. Now tap Volume Up / Volume Down / Power / Volume Down. You should see the spinning gears and your phone will reflash the last OS version held in recovery.

The Software Recovery Tool is the final option, for example for "bricked" phones that would no longer turn on, be charged, etc. This can be used to either roll back to a previous OS version or force an update to a more current OS version
[/INFO]
Remember, when reporting bugs be descriptive! The more information you give, the better the chance someone will be able to help you.

What OS version? Any special conditions that should be noted? What were you doing? What is the result? Any error codes or messages given? What have you tried for solutions? What variant of the phone are you using? Single SIM or Dual SIM?

Please describe as much as possible about the bug so others may try and replicate the bug and don't make suggestions for solutions that you have already tried which have failed.
[INFO]
When reporting bugs/issues, please also use the Windows Feedback app to report issues directly to Microsoft. Microsoft don't actively read forums looking for people reporting issues when they have a data collection system built right into the operating system. They use WF to analyse numbers and prioritise fixes (issues with more reports, get sorted quicker).

"You can use the Windows Feedback app to tell us which features you love about your Lumia with Windows 10, or when something could be better.
1.To launch the app, swipe over to the App list, and then select Windows Feedback.
2.See if someone else has given similar feedback by entering the topic, such as Microsoft OneDrive.
3.If you find similar feedback, tap the Upvote or tap on the feedback to open it, write the problem details to Add details-field and tap Send.
4.To narrow your search to a specific topic, you can filter the results by picking the category that matches your feedback the closest. For example, for feedback about the Microsoft OneDrive, select Apps and Games > OneDrive.
5.If you don?t find any similar feedback, tap + to add new feedback. Select the correct category and subcategory from the dropdown-list.
6.Enter your feedback (the more details the better!), add a screenshot if you can, and tap Send.
7.Your feedback will automatically upload when you are charging your phone and connected to Wi-Fi, but you can also upload the feedback manually by tapping ? > Upload feedback data."

Hopefully I'm the only one who will run into this, but my Lumia 950 XL doesn't pass the Windows 10 splash screen after this update. Using the Windows Recovery Tool now.

I am stuck on logo screen as well, I haven't tried rebooting it yet to see if it passes that screen. Hoping it will load eventually if I wait it out but it's been like this a long time now.

I gave up on waiting and held the power button down until it restarted, got to logo screen and I thought it was bricked as it looked like it wasn't moving again but it made it past that to the we're getting there steps and it completed. I don't know if waiting all that time helped or I was just lucky.

I'm curious what issues they refer to for dual sim units. I have a 950 XL. Downloading now.

Not directly tied to the update itself, but after you get this build, you'll also get a store update that brings a new layout, however it's kinda buggy. I don't recommend updating the store, just cancel the update.

Anyone else having a bug where the store freezes after you try to choose any app to download from it. The loading wheel keeps on spinning forever and everything is frozen.
I had this bug in the build before this one and it was still present even after hard reset.
Does anyone know any workaround for this?

Update: Also the store freezes and eventually crashes after trying to access settings from it.

Btw, as a response to the post above about the new store update, I didn't get any, so you can rule that out as a possible problem.

Noticed something new today in Messages.

You can swipe left to delete text messages. Additionally, you can undo the delete. I don't remember seeing that in previous builds.

They finally fixed whatever was preventing us from updating the limit in the data usage tracker.

Quick Actions as in the toggles in Action Centre? Well, MS did state that the Quick Actions has a bug in it (check WinCentral's What's Fixed and Broken article). Apparently I had that issue too on last build after doing a hard reset. Had to do another hard reset to fix it, so all the best mate.

One thing I also noticed (and it may be an isolated case) is that I don't see any icons in the Action center.

Just updated my L535, return of Edge swipe gesture is cool, tried Apps for websites option with Facebook link, it's not working, I think we have to wait for app updates to support this feature.
