The 650's announcement is now reportedly delayed from 01 Feb to mid-Feb.

At the same time, there is talk of it having laser-cut metal, which sounds sexy. Hopefully, it's worth waiting for design-wise at least.

but the leaked render looks pretty ugly
I really miss the design language of previous Nokia Lumia flagships, colourful polycarbonate square phone with curved screen.

Any of you guys running Here Drive+ on your Windows Phone 10? Is the map as updated as the Android version of Here Maps?

The reason I'm asking because the Here Drive+ running on Windows 8.1 Denim is clearly outdated in term of Map Data update compared to Android version of Here Maps.

I can understand (I'm not saying that it is okay) that normal apps like Opera browser etc are on a primitive side, compared to Android version. Perhaps because they need to do the hard work making it running natively on Windows Phone OS.

But when it comes to Here Drive+ it is just a Map Data for crying out loud! Why can't we have the same updated Map Data as the Android version?

Are we Windows Phone users being neglected now?

Microsoft really need to look into this seriously if there are to stay in this line of business. Having less number of apps is one bad thing, but having outdated/primitive apps and Data (compared to other platforms) is really quite another.

I use windows maps app on windows 10 because it is also using data from HERE maps and it has better UI fit to windows 10 and more features
here drive app is not ready for windows 10, it's slow on windows 10, crash on some device, i think HERE hasn't update the app for windows 10. I didn't notice any difference between the data on android and windows, it could also because of my area hasn't got many changes, but so far I have no complain using windows maps app. if you have windows 10 pc, you can try it out

any idea,on how to download window 10 mobile using network data instead of wifi?
*
use network data only when checking for updates
then it will ask you whether you want to continue downloading the update using metered connections

Hey guys, first time visiting WP forums on LYN. 2 year+ 1520 owner here, just updated to W10M. Built-in stopwatch and timer, FINALLY!

You guys have any idea what the secondhand 1520 demand is like? Haha.
*
I have 1520 too
secondhand demand is not really high, it's a 3 yrs old phone
but if you are willing to let go at attractive price, I'm sure someone will be interested

Hi super newbie here, Using Lumia 735
I had several issues downloading WP10 using Upgrade Advisor
First try, it needed extra 900mb internal space. eventhough i had 1.4gb free.

So i hard reset my phone, nothing else i could clear. space taken up by emails. (1gb+)
Ran all the 8.1 updates..
Then i tried again. but it gave me the "working with your carrier service to deliver" yada2..
tried Windows insider app, couldn't connect, ask me to check time/date etc2..

what should i do to update to WP10?  cry.gif
Thanks
*
from your siggy I can see your set is virgin set?
if it's locked under Virgin network, you need to wait for your carrier service to deliver the update because you're upgrading from 8.1
if I'm not wrong, update can be pushed out directly to users by Microsoft and bypass carrier service on win10, but not on 8.1

Yeah, tried found the settings for quick status on lockscreen, changed it to several apps but no changes. I read somewhere that might need to hard reset. But oddly enough, my phone had a random reboot this morning and after that the quick status on lockscreen worked!  sweat.gif
Good thing I have not planned to do any hard reset yet  laugh.gif

Found that some apps might still be a little buggy, sometimes closes randomly. And fonts on Whatsapp are quite small sweat.gif Other than that, everything else seems fine so far, including battery life.

hard reset is troublesome, but it is always recommended to get the best out of the new operating system
if you have time, do a hard reset
hard reset solved a lot of problems on my 1520

Sad....

Really sad....

They are leaving us behind and let us rot slowly.

We either jump ship to other or to spend more money on new devices. Damn. Microsoft. Damn.

Just a couple of months don't get in touch in win news. And I am lagged one century. Will they give the final service pack for high end isolated device like us? Damn even 1020 isn't in the list. Wth is this..... Hardware wise I'm sure 920 can support...

Damn just too cruel...

Hows HERE? Gone? Or acquired by ms?
*
920 hardware is quite old already, that phone is nearly 4 yrs old since its release
even nexus 4 didnt get android marshmallow update
the hardware may be capable of running W10M, but the performance may not be as good as WP8.1
im sticking with android for now until 2017

I had stopped using HERE and seems like they are dropping Windows app support
now i rely on Windows Maps(Win10) which is also using HERE data

imo, windows maps is better than here apps, microsoft will adding more features and improve it

Do you use the Upgrade Advisor app?
try to do a soft reset and then start the download with wifi

upgrade done.

Really nice. But a little bit laggy at first. Maybe 430 is low end. but after all stable, its smooth back...

But, another thing is it need a long startup compared to 8.1 and it will lag abit for the first few minutes after restart.

edge really troublesome. maybe I am new to it. Even in Win10 laptop I dint use edge, I use back IE lol

check your background apps in settings>privacy
even on 1520 i can tell w10m is not as fast as wp8.1

Interestingly, my daily driver happens to be a 525 that was updated with windows 10 preview as soon as I got it.

Lag, yes. Unexplained crashes, yes. I lost count how many times the whole thing sort of freezes and require a battery pull.

However, things are getting better now. The freeze does happens, but infrequently, and seemingly tied to the facebook app.

Huhu, tak berani lagi playing around with redstone build.

It took a few months also for the windows 10 build to be stable enough on the 525. Plus the fact that it would be even worse because 525's chipset is slow...

Feeling a little bit of regret selling off my 830.
