QUOTE(futra @ Aug 19 2014, 08:41 AM) Wow, 8.1 really have huge improvements on battery usage. During 8.0 my batt drain was 8% per hour as reported by Battery app. After updating, it drained 10-11%  because I didn't disable apps in the Battery Saver. After disabling most of them, leaving only the essentials apps to run in background, and a full charge.. I get 5% per hour (data on, LTE on)  And I didn't need to soft/hard reset at all. 20 % for 11 hours on wifi, it does improve a lot |

Whatsapp saved images on 8.1 will be saved in 'Other Pictures' in the Photo>Albums folder (phone), but those images are actually saved in the same 'Whatsapp' folder when viewed in Windows Explorer.
Anyone else's whatsapp facing this small bug?

Anyone else's whatsapp facing this small bug? Is both folder shares the same picture? Previously it was in Saved Pictures, after an update, save to Whatsapp, then go back to Other Picture  |

Anyone managed to sideload their apps/games and install them via 'Install Local App' in Store? Tried a 103mb game (Despicable Me) but giving me error, also a small 7mb game update (Hypernaut) failed.

QUOTE(ajax91 @ Aug 19 2014, 11:45 PM) why sideload need to install again? btw what is that 'install local app' thing? where is it in the store? For example, your mobile data is limited and there's no wifi to connect ur phone to download an app/game or an update, but ur desktop PC can download the app manually via the windows phone store. Then, connect ur phone to PC. Copy the downloaded app into ur phone's Download folder (there's a Download folder in ur phone now in 8.1). Now, open the Store app on ur phone and tap the '...' at the bottom, and tap the 'Install Local App'. Then, choose the app and tap install. Done! Back in Amber/Black, you can't side load apps, especially if ur phone doesn't have an SD card slot e.g. L1020. Now in 8.1, it's possible! |
