At this point, you might as well wait. Now that we know the G Watch has issues with the charging pins, the slight wait for the 360 doesn't seem so bad. It does come down to what you want more though, I personally wanted a square device and found the Samsung to be the most fashionable.

Recently upgraded my fone to o2 Stealth. Generally it's good, only facing intermediate problem with the keypad. Sometimes when I restart the fone, the keypad doesnt work but only the touch screen works. I have to do the restart again and again until I get the keypad working. This might takes 5 times to 10 times of restarting to get it back working fully. Gosh.... !!! If this happens, it is very annoying !! I don't know if it a hardware connection problem or software ! Anyone faces the same problem???????

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
I'm about to buy a WP device, and of course it's my first WP device so I was doing some research on it.

We know that Lumia devices to WP are like Nexus device to Android, which means first gets update to new system.

And recently there a lot of wallet-friendly WP phones comes out like Prestigio, Yezz, Blu... etc, and as I have wait for 2 months that Lumia 630 dual sim is still not available in my country so I'm thinking about prestigio multiphone 8500.

Only thing I'm worrying about is system update. I take no doubt it's not gonna be as fast as Lumia devices get.

And I read an article about an app "windows preview for developers", and appears it can run on Lumia, Huawei and Samsung.

So I was wondering how does WP work?

I mean, for example the Android , each device has its own driver so need manufacturer to do the update.

And WP doesn't work that way? just like we saw on PC, one system contains almost all driver?
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snickler:
Each OEM device contains the Windows Phone OS + OEM/Carrier specific firmwares that do include drivers that will add and tweak things for the specific version of WP.

The Preview for Developers program allows a user to update his or her phone to the latest version of the Windows Phone OS ONLY, keeping the current firmware that you had installed BEFORE you updated the OS via the preview for developers. Before updating, Microsoft informs you that if something goes wrong with your phone, that it CAN void your warranty (unless you can get back to a previous version of the OS to match the version that is in production for your carrier).

The carriers will release the OEM/Carrier updates when they are approved.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DilanChd:
Hi,

Firstly, although now Nokia's mobile division belongs to Microsoft, I do not think as long as it is a kind of exclusivity for updates. It's just that there are only a duo (or rather all in one) Microsoft/Nokia that move your ass, the rest of the manufacturers do almost nothing, and royally fu** Windows Phone (Huawei, HTC, Samsung, etc). It is therefore felt in the updates:

- Nokia first in almost all the time

- Huawei, HTC, Samsung, etc. last

All this because some OEMs do not want to bet (big) on Windows Phone. This is unfortunate.

In addition, the updates via the Developers Preview for all models of Windows Phone 8 uild OS updates have the same time. Namely, since the GDR3 Preview, the Preview status updates become official once the release for everyone (almost no change the build version between of Preview/official).

On Windows Phone, the packages the OS portion and the firmware part *are separated*, which means that one can go without the other.

Some example (Nokia):

- Preview GDR3 WP8.0 on Lumia Amber (Lumia Amber is fully compatible under GDR2 WP8.0).

- Preview WP8.1 on Lumia Black (Lumia Black is fully compatible under GDR2 WP8.0).

- Preview GDR1 WP8.1 on Lumia Cyan (Lumia Cyan is fully compatible in WP8.1).

- Etc. (along with other OEM).

Of course, for each GDR (at minimum), OEMs need to update their firmware to make it fully compatible at this level (software-hardware).
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
thanks for your reply.

please forgive my stupidity and poor english, about GDR, can I take it like a big update on Windows , like Service Pack ? at least that's how I felt about this thing ...

what do you mean "Amber", "Black" and "Cyan" ? I assume it's like system name ? like TouchWiz , SenseUI and something ?

so I assume i bought a Prestigio Multiphone 8500 duo (WP8.1) , is it possible i get WP8.1 GDR1 myself ? (even somehow it's problematic and not fully compatible) or I must wait for OEM to do it ?
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DilanChd:
GDR means "General Distribution Release". GDRs provide bug fixes, modifications of any kind, add features, etc.

If Windows Phone 8 would "equal" (excuse the term) at Windows 7 (not Windows 8, because there are more Service Pack on this version), then yes a GDR would be about equal to a Service Pack.

Lumia Amber, Lumia Black and Lumia Cyan are firmware developed by Nokia. They contain all sorts of things, such as drivers, features, assembly (dll/exe), etc.

Basically, it is the firmware that makes the link between the hardware and the software. All other manufacturers are developing the firmwares for their Windows Phone, only they do not give of name at of their firmware. Nokia does.

All Windows Phone 8 will get the GDR1 of WP8.1, even your device (either by voice Preview, or by the official voice).
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
if I may , i'd like to know something more about WP.

as we can see in Android , the eco-system is full of fragment , and Google couldn't push OEMs to update their devices, does Microsoft have more control over this matter ?

I mean , how could Microsoft to be so sure about all WP8 devices will get GDR1 ? for Lumia series I can understand , but what about devices of Huawei , Samsung and other OEMs ? how could Microsoft guarantee the update on NO-Lumia devices ?
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DilanChd:
All Windows Phone 8 device has support in terms of updates. Support for Windows Phone 8 will normally end at the latest in 2016 (for some device).

On this point, you do not have to inquitez, not before long (and in hope that Microsoft to learn from their mistake with WP7).
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
with all due respect sir , i think you misunderstood me ...

my main question is , how could Microsoft possibly to oversee the update over all other OEMs ? for Lumia , there is no doubts about that ...

like they've made a contract , agreement , or such thing ?

we see how the looser Google is, in the control, special the update part of Android ...:crying:
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Microsoft controls the phone update servers. If an OEM doesn't want to release an update for their phone, MS could (in theory) just push the OS update to all users of that phone anyhow. This would be functionally equivalent to using the Preview For Developers option, except doing it for everybody instead of just those who opted into it.

PFD allows you to update any WP8 device from any OEM and on any carrier as though it were an Android Nexus device: you get the updates as soon as Microsoft publishes them, without waiting on OEM/MO customizations and without the OEM or MO having any opportunity to block or delay the update unless it breaks on their firmware (in which case MS will stop pushing the update until it's fixed).

In Nokia X(Stock Rom) vedios of 720p/1080p is not running smoothly.Sometimes freez.Even in low range phone Micromax A58 runs this types of vedios smoothly.I am quiet shock to see that our Nx doest not run this vedios smoothly.Any trick or solution to run this types of vedios smoothly in NX???
[Nokia X] Dom3616:
Install MX Player and VPlayer. And see if they can get you what you want. ;)
[Nokia X] ahhamado:
mx player surely will gave you some optimize. with this low spec phone not very help.

you can try to re-encoder your video on pc first. make it to resolution at 480p while maintain 2mbps compression.

you can using iMedia converter deluxe or something like that.
[Nokia X] meanjan_basu:
I am using MX player..But vedios does not run smoothly..I am already showing this vedios by converting in 800*480resulation(H.264)..its smooth and ok.but I want to run this vedios directly without convert..

[Nokia X] ahhamado:
no u can't. I have xperia z ultra that can play 4k video hardware acceleration without trouble. we talk about processing and capability of hardware here. thats why you need right encoding setting suited to this phone. btw why you want to watch HD videos on this low resolution display? watch it on your big screen LCD TV.
[Nokia X] Dom3616:
He's right. Use your tv for thatt.

This threads is discussed long ago. Did not know if someone will tell. I think MX player should play HD videos but sometimes video plays slowly but sound is OK, so sound sometime stops to maintain the video with sound. Some HD files plays but some are not. I do not know if there was a fix for that.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
You didn't provide any screen shots or a detailed description, making it difficult to give any specific advice.

Most stock apps do not allow you to change theme colours. You could search the forum to see if any Themers have modified the stock email app. Or install a third party mail app.

Is there one or in the real world, would I literally not notice the difference between an Ultra card and Extreme Plus card?

I have a Sandisk 64 ultra in my device currently. I also have useed a 128g but those come formatted exFAT. You *can* use exFAT cards in the M8, but you will have to be rooted and running a custom kernel that supports exFAT (I believe there is only one such kernel or possibly two). Otherwise, you need to reformat the 128g card as FAT32. Since my current kernel does not support exFAT, I'm using the 64g until I need the space.

I ran Codecraft's kernels for a while and they support exFAT. Currently running scrosler's "stock" modified kernel which supports init.d and it specifically states that it does NOT support exFAT. I haven't gotten to a point where the 4g limitation is meaningful, though.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CliffyP:
I got a Tab S 10.5 a few weeks ago as a replacement for my Nexus 10. Overall, I feel like the Tab S is head and shoulders above the Nexus - but I've had some strange issues. I've had the wifi signal intermittently stop responding - it seems to be more prevalent on my 5GHz network using 802.11ac speeds but I've experienced it at standard 2.4GHz connections as well.

I haven't rooted the tablet yet. I thought at first it might be my wireless network as I hadn't used any other devices that were 'ac' capable even though I have a pair of Netgear R6300V2 routers bridged across my home. However, these wifi signal dropouts persist only on the Tab S - if I turn wifi off, then back on, connectivity is restored. My Galaxy S4, Chromecast, PC, DVR, all stay online just fine.

Has anyone else had this issue? I got my Tab S with the Samsung Book Cover - which I love, but it almost seems like it happens when I hold the Tab a certain way.
