- This is my experience on Black Update. Battey improved, to be able to close the app in Multi-tasking is convenient, auto rotation off is ok, temp files are now lessen. Unfortunately, the camera issues are still there01-17-2014 05:12 AMLike 0
- I was under the impression that the black update would give me the option to change the night clock colour, and have a pedometer,(step counter) on my glance screen, but no,why???01-17-2014 06:18 AMLike 0
- I have text notifications email,no pedometer as promised or the ability to change the night clock colour01-17-2014 06:21 AMLike 0

1) WhatsApp
- I can't increase or decrease the volume of WhatsApp videos (maybe WhatsApp requires an update and I did restart my phone just to ensure that it's not a problem but with no luck :/ )
- auto closes
2) yellowish tint and blurry images :/
This is how it took the picture
and this is how it saved it
does anyone else have these problems???01-17-2014 05:27 PMLike 0 - while watching a video r listening to music not able to increase r decrease the volume have came across this twice oly after a reboot it gets to normal!! Irritating..!!! :-/ :-/

Have a look at this thread which discusses it. It first appeared in the Amber update and it seems the tint still remains in the Black update.01-18-2014 10:38 AMLike 0

Have you used ringtone maker or the desktop sync app to create ringtones? You can't pick songs from your music to be your ringtones, you have to assign them as ringtones and then you'll be able to use them as such.- Share

- I answered to his comment....the new black update doesn't let us set our music files as ringtones it just lets us assign ringtones to contacts....until and unless we connect our phone to a laptop/pc and move the music files to the ringtones folder...or use the ringtone maker app :) like you said :D01-18-2014 11:54 AMLike 0
- I had the error that the update could not be opened as well. But finally managed to install GDR3+Black on Indian 920. Took a little while to install though. I haven't particularly noticed massive battery drains as some people have reported. In fact, I find lesser drain happening when on 3G/H+ which wasn't the case earlier. Its pretty stable when on 3G standby. I believe the switching between 3G and H+ has been optimized which is showing a positive effect on the battery. Live tiles have finally started working albeit only when I connect to the internet. I don't understand why a battery tile should require the internet to update the battery status. But at least they are working now. The overall fluidity of the interface seems to have gotten better. Its slicker than ever before. However, there are a few things that are not pretty -
1. WhatsApp crashes every time upon start. I could not even open the app. I had to temporarily use Hike and Viber for IM. Uninstalled and re-installed and its working now. But sadly some older messages have vanished. :(
2. The settings page of the Music+Videos hub has become corrupted. I wanted to open the settings page and voila! - no settings to tap on. Don't know if this is an isolated issue. Since there is no way to "re-install" GDR3 update without doing a hard reset, I am trying to live with it. Would welcome if anybody has any suggestions for this. I cannot afford to hard reset the device right now.
3. The Bing search app suddenly stopped updating its image. It earlier used to update the image daily whenever I connect to the internet. Now its stopped altogether. But the lockscreen Bing wallpaper is getting updated regularly. I really don't get what could be the solution for this. Let me know if you have experienced this at sometime or the other as well.
So that's my experience. Will post if I notice anything else.01-18-2014 11:55 AMLike 0 - I had the error that the update could not be opened as well.

- I would have definitely done a backup - only if I could open the app. :) Although Xbox music isn't available in India, the settings page should be there. It was there before the update. My region settings haven't changed since then. For the standalone Xbox music app that was released recently, yes that requires a music pass subscription without which the app wouldn't even open. But the music hub is working just fine. Not sure if GDR3 has made the settings page available in Xbox enabled countries only. I can still access and play files in that though. I had noticed the space screen in the Bing app would remain static for quite sometime as well. But it used to update eventually. Now it doesn't update even after a few days. Not that it's a grave concern but it was a nifty thing to have.
