why is it 122MB? On android it is just about 18MB
Any idea why is it like this?
*
Game is kinda big, and 18MB is a little tiny don't you think?

Anyways, I'm not the kind who sinks time into games, so I quickly uninstalled it :/

Can't believe that I've been using a WP for nearly half a year and only today did I realize that there are at least two GBA emulators in the Store.

haven't tested purple cherry yet, but VBA8 should be black and white it I'm not mistaken. But it doesn't really matter cos I'm used to playing Pokemon RBY on black and white and without sound haha. Been doing that for three years nearly everyday before switching over to my Lumia.

Curious, are there any keyboard shortcuts for WP? Like an equivalent to CTRL+A for desktop. Or a way to select words without the pop-up keyboard getting in the way.

I know lots of you like putting Asian lengluis as wallpapers, and good news is, there's an app to let you do that easily called Chinese Girls available for free for a limited time.

I use 500 Backgrounds for that btw. I prefer sultry shots =)

So, Windows Phone Store also offers free apps for a limited time ? I didn't know that.

But I like to use nature wallpapers, therefore I just use LockScreen Free.

Thanks for the info anyway.
*
50% of what 500 Backgrounds offers are nature stuff. I'd highly recommend that app.

And yeah, lots of free apps that come around. Download myAppfree and Appdeals to keep track of them. And subscribing to a WP RSS feed and the WP subreddit helps too.

Almost all Disney games are free now fyi.

Does the keyboard still autocorrect anymore??? I'm so frustrated with it. When using the searsch function the autorrect just fails. The typos here are just some examples of the autoccrect not functioning. It highlights those words instead.

i tried to remove all but a single language in the keyboard serrings. Doesn't seem to improve the auto correct.
*
Autocorrect doesn't seem to work for a number of instances; searching being one and when filling up certain forum boxes for another.

Auto-disabling autocorrect for searching makes sense, but there should be an option to turn it off imo. #WPproblems

Any news on when we can get GDR3 or Lumia Black?

Have other countries received them? It has been a while since I last read about the news

one Lowyat member here already got it on his HTC a week back iirc. You can try Googling if Lumias got it.

Few months being a WP user got me pretty patient about all these. My regular self sure cannot tahan wan lol.

Thinking of sending my phone for repair since I'm still under warranty. Problem is that my battery drains out unexpectedly, as in battery is at around 40% then the phone just bricks as if the battery is dead at less than 5%.

Anybody got experience with Nokia's repair services? How long does it usually take to get my phone back?

Meh, 512mb phones are now officially outdated.

Also, is it a sign that WP8.1 require at least 1GB ram to run the new features smoothly?

Anyone can recommend me some nice music player apps other than iMusic ?
*
I tried many, but I stuck with the default one in the end. Its gonna be a major update either before or during the WP8.1 update btw to keep it in line with the W8 one.

Other music apps that, to me, are the creme of the crop in the app store are Audiotica V Beta (have to download via link), Nokia MixRadio and Spotify (could use major improvements but what the hell).

Don't think the 525 will make as much as an impact as the 520. It's relatively expensive.

The 520 is selling at crazy prices in the US according to the WP subreddit, about $49 for an off-model.

Dungeon Hunter is here

http://www.wpcentral.com/gameloft-dungeon-...4-wp8-windows-8

Time to make some free space

It seems that it will run slow on my L920 though T.T
*
This would be the first game from Gamaeloft that got me interested at first sight tbh. But my 720 can't support it :/

DivvyUp (bill splitting app) is free for a limited time too. You gotta download the app, then upgrade from within it.

Guys, is screen orientation lock coming in Lumia Black update?

And is it true that we shall get the update by the end of december?

Doubt it. I'd say Q1 2014, especially since Malaysia gets stuff later.

Hopefully MS sends updates straight instead of going through carriers for the WP 8.1 update and beyond.
