QUOTE(ajay67 @ Jul 25 2013, 08:43 AM) just few days playing with windows fon (actually my wife's) but i cant figure out how to sync contacts/calendar to server for backup & editing, like i normally do with android/gmail. anyone can guide me? or fwd me to the right link (if its already mention) sync contact - all you need is to add your email hotmail(Live ID), Gmail, Yahoo, after login all your contact/email/calender will sync over your phone. as for backup , text message will be auto backup to your live skydrive . at anytime if you lost your phone or change phone just simply re-login your live ID all you text messages will be restore.

Gonna reset my Lumia this weekend,phone battery draining terribly,charge 100%,only on rowi for 40mins,and i will lose 30% of the battery.
im planning to reset,update all,then only restore settings and application required,that would be the best way right?

SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME A FEW DAYS BACK! Using Lumia 720. You? Yeah, I hard-resetted it and the problem solved itself. However, not everything gets backed up. Some settings such as ringtone and region settings you have to manually reset again. And some of your contacts will get screwed. The list of apps you have also might be corrupted (that's what happened to me).
