Downloaded a trial this morning...

Much much better than most Weather Apps, no Met Office warnings but if that's not a problem, WeatherFlow is ACE! I have a lockscreen for weather, with changing wallpaper depending on weather. Who needs live tiles now?
Edit: Going to buy it after the trial ends in 2 days, see if it affects battery.

I just bought it, exactly what I was looking for, got it updating every 1 hour, I'll see how I get on. Seems to be pretty awesome.

Quite a nice lock screen app called hellofriends.
Makes a collage of photos.
Is there a way to make the lock screen stay on longer? My screen goes blank after 10secs, is that just the way it is?

Yup I bought amazing weather earlier. Seems really really good at the moment. The live tile looks great on the home screen
Dont really want the GPS on all the time though. I turned of all the location services and it looks like its updating using my data/wifi so am happy with that at the moment.
Check Settings > lock screen > Screen times out after...

That only changes the timeout of normal use mode and lock screen stays at 10seconds for me.
Been checking it all day and it updates regularly, it changes picture if I set it to, along with hourly forecast. Definitely worth a couple of bob for it.
Bye bye Amazing Weather HD, hello Weatherflow.
Oh I see what you want now, don't think you can change that though.

I bought it as it was exactly what I wanted for my lock screen. I'm pretty impressed. £1.49 well spent.

Ok so I got my phone swapped out at phones4u earlier but for some reason the new one will not sign in to my Microsoft account which is weird.
Also the replacement does not have any dust particles between the glass and the front camera so I'm hoping I won't have any proximity sensor issues with this one, perhaps this was related to my black screen lock up problems.

I tried that, I will have another look in a min the better half is having a crack at it at the moment.
Does anybody else have this problem?
Whenever I select a song to play, the phone freezes up. The song starts straight away, but it takes about 6-7 seconds to move to the screen showing the song playing, and in that time the screen is completely frozen.
It's not the worst thing in the world, just a minor inconvenience. I thought maybe it was just a general phone issue at first, and as it's not a big deal I didn't think too much of it. But my brother got a 920 yesterday, and his works completely fine, and it's made me realise that no-one else has mentioned it.
It's quite a small thing to have to send the phone back for a replacement, so I'm really hoping someone will tell me they've had the same and had it fixed, or that it will get fixed in an update or something at least!

Thats wierd, cos normally you can trust women to do technical stuff with phones and computers....
Cool thanks
I know it comes with one...I'd like one for work and home though.
Ah crap I'm talking myself into this phone more and more everyday!
