QUOTE(rogrog @ Apr 14 2014, 09:20 PM) Updating, woohooo! The update took me like 30sec to download. Am I doing it right?  That is the update before 8.1. There should be 2 updates.

I'm very happy with the 8.1 update. It should have been available from the start. Could have been a game changer. Everyone is very positive about it and gives good reviews/ A lot of people are also considering on getting a WP now. Now for Nokia to release a new flagship to get ahead.

Finally it's worth to recommend WP8 to my friends.. A lot are quite curious to jump ship but I always address the problem especially when it comes to notification. Now that notification are fully responsive and fast, with a lot of new features WP has finally matured. Cortana is pretty in-dept interms of the setting which is pretty good. If only Cortana would talk to me more rather than giving me bing search results. Then... I realize it's still in Beta

QUOTE(azilazwa @ Apr 20 2014, 02:28 PM) Thanks for your clarification. Do i need third party apps to do this or can just sign in with google and all the contact will sync? ordered my first lumia from 7mobile  There is an app called Transfer my Data which could transfer all your contacts via bluetooth. Some supported phones can transfer their text messages as well as photos too.

QUOTE(azilazwa @ Apr 20 2014, 02:48 PM) Orite, noted. Thanks again. Hoping to have a great experience with wp! With the latest 8.1 update, I don't think much could go wrong. Make sure you use US region though, there will be a lot of missing apps if you go with Malaysia or others. Previous experience, not sure how it is now though.

QUOTE(JonSpark @ Apr 21 2014, 09:57 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-preivewHaha friendzoned.. I think they'll add more stuff soon so it'll have more responds in the future. 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. 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.

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.

QUOTE(300thecat @ May 13 2014, 09:25 PM) My phone suddenly bricked when I left it idle during dinner. Charging it now but nothing's happening. How long is Nokia warranty? I have a few days left till a year. EDIT: It's a year. If charging and the windows logo is blinking meaning completely out of battery. Give it a longer time to charge. I have never heard a bricked lumia unless stuck in spinning cog.

QUOTE(300thecat @ May 14 2014, 11:29 AM) Phone totally bricked. I can't explain it. Suddenly after dinner, nothing was working. Screen blank, buttons all not responding, my L720 literally became a red brick. I left it wall-charging overnight but nothing happened. So I left it longer this morning, but miraculously now okay d. But my phone seems to be slower than before. I'm still sending it for repair, but I think I gotta revert to 8.0 first. You are going to need to revert back. If not cannot claim warranty.

Very true. Battery life improves and it's even better than 8.0 for me.

QUOTE(dgboy @ Jun 2 2014, 05:19 PM) I had this issue when I first updated the app on the weekend. Solution was to set Data Sense to Unlimited quota. Until I did that, I could not even open WhatsApp. Did you set any data limit? No issues for me. Set 2gb as my quota and WhatsApp works just fine for me. Maybe happens to some different model.
