QUOTE(JonSpark @ Apr 21 2014, 04:57 PM) you mean friendzoned? wifi connection is more stable now, but battery drain is really bad......disabling background apps from running also didnt helped much people hub sometimes doesnt respond another 8.1 preview bug fix update will be released on 24rd april http://www.wpcentral.com/microsoft-suppose...hone-81-preivewThe bug fix update is for those who would like to update to 8.1 but can't (they get stuck after applying the 8.0 patch needed for the 8.1 upgrade), it's not an 8.1 update per say. Battery is draining pretty bad. That is probably because any new apps you run after the upgrade will automatically be allowed to run in the background. You will need to go into the settings and disable those apps that you do not wish to run in the background. If you're using Cortana, then Location is also on all the time (otherwise Cortana will not run and all the things associated with Cortana such as Quiet Hours will also be disabled). It is called Developer Preview for a reason. It is not the final version of 8.1 so bugs and all sorts of issues should be expected.

QUOTE(Rei7 @ Apr 21 2014, 10:00 PM) Wifi connection is now super nice with an awesome option to automatically switch between both cellular and wifi. I like it when I off my modem automatically it will change on wifi and also the wifi searching option. how did you do that? cannot find any option to automatically switch between wifi and cellular QUOTE(Rei7 @ Apr 21 2014, 10:00 PM) People hub pretty much dead lol.. Battery drain issue for me there is no problem at least not yet. If too buggy always restart phone should be good. i have no problem in people hub. even have lots of linked account between facebook contact and microsoft mail contact.

It's called "Developer Preview" because they're meant for developer to test and optimize their app on the new OS update, not to test the OS update itself. The WP 8.1 Developer Preview is the final build. This is the RTM version of WP 8.1. And like any other OS, it has bugs. Personally I think the Lumia Cyan update may only resolve hardware-related issue. As for OS bugs, I expect no less than a GDR update to resolve it. QUOTE The Preview program was created to give developers time to test their apps, and to validate that their apps run as expected on a real phone before an operating system update is made generally available to your customers http://dev.windowsphone.com/en-us/develop/devpreviewQUOTE This post has been edited by Assassin's: Apr 22 2014, 06:23 PM

When I used to have my 920, it happens sometime for unknown reason even before 8.1. I would consider it quite normal. It also happen when I'm about wake it up to sleep.
