Thanks for the field report.

As I expected, the windows phone backup process is not up to scratch if compared with the iOS backup and restore process. Microsoft needs to buck up and implement something similar like iOS.

I am planning to upgrade my iPhone 4s, iPhone 4, 2 x iPad 2 to 6.1 and I am secure in knowing that whenever I wipe the iOS devices clean during a full restore, I can easily restore the devices with their respective backups (store locally on my Mac) and my devices will be restored (app data, SMS you name it) to the previous state.

you are most welcome.

no doubt windows phone is still behind the two leading mobile OS and is playing a catching up game.

windows phone is still at its infant stage with only 2 years old, compared to 4 and 5+ for android and iOS respectively.

indeed iOS can perform a full restore including app data if backup/restored via itunes but icloud behaves in a different way where it only restore iOS related data and not app data.

not too sure about android as i have not explored before but yet iOS is missing the capability of restoring individual app data which can be quite frustrating.

will get one unit cos definitely comes handy during outdoor activities.. imagine going to a concert or rave party just the bare L920? you battery will finish the juice in no time!

by the way, any recommendation on any video recording app that allows lower quality video recording instead of 720p? L920 is recording video at approximately 100MB per minute at 720p!

sevennet, i was wondering, since you have already flash the portico update, do you still experiencing random reboots?
so far my random reboots happens when i'm using data, usually after using whatsapp...today is the first time, i'm experiencing this...at home when i'm connected to WiFi (all the time), with no data turn on, i dont experience reboots (touch wood)...
*
i did not flash my device to portico but still at the original base APAC version of windows phone 8 because would like to have a smooth upgrade in future.

restoring process of the phone is just too tiring and definitely not worth at all - except for gaining an experience.

would suggest to wait a while since Nokia started to roll out the update to other countries. will come to us real soon

hi all...i am considering to get this lumia 920...my questions will be:
1) any other telco other than Digi have it?
2) if i wan to buy outright without plan, where can i get it?
3) will it be coming with wireless charger?
4) can i still use my whatsapp?? how about gps apps(currently using sygic)?? and can i sync with my gmail contact to retrieve my phonebook?

1) Digi and Celcom (i reckon)

2) everywhere

3) optional accessory

4) whatsapp = yes. GPS = use nokia drive. gmail sync = yes, but doesn't support custom label.

i stop using battery app, it drains more baterry..

i cant live without battery app as i think it's really useful. perhaps you might want to consider trying Battery Status app as it shows the battery remaining hours. check out the attached screenshot below:

surprisingly battery consumption seems to be getting better after using my phone for approx 3 weeks (without portico update yet)!

I was thinking of flashing and upgrading to Portico but then I need to download my games and all the apps again?
Or is there a backup software I could use to backup everything.
*
unfortunately not. everything will be gone except for contacts, pictures and installed apps. settings is not recovered.

that's why i would rather wait for the OTA update than to flash it
