Just a heads up for anyone using the 79p 'battery level for wp8' app by Alex someone or other. I don't think his updates are showing on/pulling through to the store tile. Twice now I've gone into the store and clicked on the app and it has 'update' in the bottom left hand corner where install usually is. Hope it helps someone. There was a fresh update put on on the 7th dec.

The update comes through to me but I've had updates showing up as late as 48hours later than advertised date, so it's not a push for everyone I think.

Anyway, update is great as the locked screen is back and everything seems to be working as it should :)

So I went to 4 EE shops yesterday in attempt to buy a white 920 on pay as you go. 2 didn't have them in stock, the other 2 had them but as soon as I said I would take it on pay as you go they looked a bit stunned and said sorry can't do that. They said that they were contract ones and couldn't sell them pay as you go. One guy even said the white was only available on contract (which is obviously bs). Is this the experience other people are having? I understand that sale guys want to sell contracts because they make a lot more commission but can they really hold stock like this? I find it hard to believe that they can't just swap in a pay as you go sim and sell it as such..

I had no problem in Glasgow mate, although to be fair they did have the PAYG prices up next to the Black Handset...which I went for but have a white cover on it right now :p

Headphones were free as was the Wireless Charger...don't accept any excuses from them the Wireless Charger will scan up as free ;)

Did you use explorer and drop them into the right folder?..silly things but just making sure. They should list themselves with any album art into it.

They don't exist as physical files locally anymore...I uploaded/added them to XBox music....i.e. sent to the 'cloud', so naturally expected them to be available on my phone, much like Google music works.

I notice whatsapp for w8 got pulled, is there somewhere else i can get it?

If you go to the whatsapp.com website and choose windows platform, it takes you to the page on windows store where the app used to be. It currently states, 'unlisted' or something but you can manually download it from the link on the page.

Now you need to help me out: How do I put the file on my phone on a Mac? :(
 
I don't know if this is a problem with the setup on my 920 or just something wrong with EE, but I'm struggling with Picture messages.

I can send them to other people fine, but when someone tries to send to me it either doesn't arrive or the sender gets a "Failed" message.

There seems to be options to input MMS APN information. I shouldn't need to do this though should I?

to get picture messaging setup i had to send a picture message to myself this is what the t-mobile staff told me, not sure if EE will be the same. I did not change the MMS APN.

It fails to send if I try to send to myself but I can send to other people fine.

I wonder if this is a result of me porting my number from Orange to this new EE contract.

"manually download it from the link on the page"

Can't see that.

I thought it's not ready yet? If anything, look under Xbox Music, settings, and make sure cloud music is turned on :)

That is BS. They sold me a "contract" one by taking the contract sim out of the box.
 
Weird

My MMS appears to work and my Data on 3G (Vodafone) works fine....but when I go to access points it has a list of APN's all listed as inactive. :confused:

Guess if it ain't broke....I won't fix it! Anyone understand this more than me? :D
 
Discovered Wordament over the weekend, nice little word game if you're into that sort of thing. You're also playing simultaneously with thousands of other players. Finding it hard though, never made the top 100 on any round, best I've managed is 121st :o
 
Wordament is a decent mobile game, I really have trouble believing the same people keep getting 90+ words and top scores in every round though.

The more you play, the quicker you become.
I find rotating the letters when you can't see any words after more than 2secs. I usually get a load of score when I focus on the theme, looking for the the holy trinity (-ing, -ies)

Been in the top 100 often but never, ever got close to the top 10. You'll also notice, familiar names will keep floating in the top 10. It's always nice to select 'Frienemies' to compare with people on your level. Just to make you feel better :)
