Anyone want to swap their white camera grip with my black camera grip? My L1020 is white, and mixing it with the black camera grip is just not my taste hehe.. It's still unused, kept perfectly well in the box.

The Nokia shop didn't have stock of whites at the time of purchase

I use the one bundled with a casing. Bought from this seller's thread : https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2944599&hl=

It doesn't cover the entire black surface of the 1020, but if centered perfectly, it does the job good enough. By the way, I chose the nilkin case since it covers most part of the rear camera, unlike other cases which leave a big round hole. Anyway, the SP is sensitively thin enough to use the 1020 with no probs albeit finger prints do occur hehe..

Does this also apply to Celcom? It has always shown H+ and never 4G nor LTE..

From the comparison photos, looks like the yellowish tint in indoor shots are reduces/gone but outdoor increased?

Hmm.. Earlier today, I tried activating the 4G LTE service on my Lumia 1020 via sms "ON 4GLTE" and later on "4GLTE YES" to 28882, it replied stating it's activated. Anyway, stayed home the whole day, didn't go out due to rain, so coverage is not really good. Mostly 3G and seldom H+.. but a few minutes ago, I saw the "LTE" beside the signal bar for a few seconds (managed to screenshot it) before it disappeared.

Does this mean I don't need to change simcard since I've already got the "LTE"?

Comparison images below; 1st is what I've been using all these time and 2nd image shows a recent speed test after activating the LTE service :-



Am I supposed to get a speed like this, or switching to a new LTE simcard will provide a faster speed? Tq.


UPDATE 24/12/2013.
Just felt like doing a speed test this morning in front of the office, raining heavily.. Surprised to see the result hehe (U Mobile server)..

Download the App Folder app from the store..

My phone says it has the latest update.. but when I checked at the extras+info section, it still says Amber.

Finally, updated to Black.

Backup everything > factory reset > update Black > restore everything. No hiccups. Yeay~

Btw, yup the yellowish tint issue has been fixed. Usually have to manual white balance but now taking photos in auto shows a whole lot better of whites than in prev Amber.

Why? I thought u have updated it, u need money urgently or something else?

After Lumia Black update.. More types of notifications on the Glance screen.

I though the glance feature is already built-in the system? Black update only adds more customizations to its basic settings.

You can have those notifications on default via the lockscreen options, but for glance screen, need to update to Black.. or else all you have is just the clock, alarm, battery icon..

Download 'SysApp Pusher' from the store. Once installed, open and select Nokia. Go to the 'system' section and download everything. After that, u might also download other things from other sections as well. Cheers!

Whatever notification you add at the lockscreen section, it will also show on the glance screen.

Download the 'Battery' app by Enless Soft Ltd. from the store. Link: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/ap...28-e934815b25cb

The Black update somehow managed to consume less battery usage which is good. Back in Amber, Data on 3G would last me during office hours till dinner time.. however in Black, Data on LTE would last slightly longer up till before bedtime, and this is on frequent checks on FB, 6tag, emails, and sometimes a quick game sessions too..

Black updates, in short.. Source AAWP

windows 7/8 detects it as if it's a new drive with no drivers needed, but i think for xp need some drivers. correct me if im wrong.

Backup all ur data, and I mean ALL of it (contacts, messages, whatsapp chats, basically whatever's in ur phone memory too).. Shouldn't be a problem
