Calling all sifus.
Why updating from black to OTA cyan 8.1 caused my 920 endless rotating cogs mode?  Please help.

When I unlock the screen, it takes like 1 seconds to do resuming to my homscreen.
Better stick with stock lock screen.

Hmm.. strange as I don't encounter the delay mentioned. Maybe this app is still new from Microsoft Garage and over the time they will fine tune it

Here are some screenshot of the new Lock Screen and I like the Pedometer function here which requires on phone chipset to work (L930 has it)... they can show the Pedometer in Days measurement in hours or Weeks smile.gif
To find out if your phone has the chipset for motion, go to Settings and find Motion Data... if it's available should you just need to turn it on and start walking around so the stats will capture it and displayed on the lock screen...

the other 4 view available would be the Calendar view showing your upcoming appointment segregated in Morning, Evening and so on... the moving next to the Calendar view is the Location view which on the lock screen itself it will show you location on the map and it is LIVE moving if you are in motion (for example in a car)... cool huh hahaha...

the last one is just a digital stop watch which not much of a use and I rather they made it as a Music player controls within the lock screen...

there is also a new update for the Windows 8.1 Update (Preview for Developer) this morning... go grab it if you're on Preview for Developer...

Delay in opening whatsapp when you open it? (how long insec) or delay in sending the message?

Lumia 930 Denim update is now available. However if you are on Preview for Developer, you need to disable it to get the Denim update and one updated with Denim, enable it back.
