Microsoft Lumia 950: Heats Up, Freezes & Crash

Microsoft has once again changed their minds regarding the handsets that would get a Windows 10 upgrade, and one of those which will not receive any upgrade are the Lumia Windows 8 phones.

What are your thoughts about the two new features that will be added to the Windows 10 Mobile?

Windows Phone is still lagging behind competitors, and sloppy updates are going to force them to make the transition faster.

Google is now offering a shortcut to weather info that you can put on your home screen, which brings up weather info in the Google app. Finally, a way to check the weather on your phone without dialing the local weatherman. You will need to go to Update & security Phone update and restart your phone manually from there for the new language and keyboard to go into effect. OneDrive in Windows 8.1 had a space-saving feature called Placeholders.

We advise you to connect to a wireless network and to fully charge you phone, so it won't shut down during the installation. After the upgrade, you can move files back to your phone if there's enough space. So, if you have the app with a lower version number, the update might hit your device anytime soon. However, you should keep in mind that deleting an app will erase any app data, like the saved progress you've made in a game.

On mobile, restoring all apps from a backup of build 14291 now works, and new languages and keyboards will be correctly downloaded - but there's a bit of a hitch. You can choose to install it immediately or to postpone the update for a more convenient time.

TPM. On the ASUS Zenbook UX31 and some other PCs with TPM chips, you may experience glitchy audio and jumpy movement when using the trackpad due to the "tpm-maintenance" task running constantly in the background instead of once per boot-up like it should. In the new version, the background will be filled out by a blurred video preview and a list of your friends.

Swipe on All Apps list from the start icon.

"But what we also learned from this feedback is that as the screen size gets bigger-large tablets, 2 in 1s and PCs for example-and you begin to use the apps, expectations shift and people want to limit app clutter".
