Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Is it possible to upgrade WP8 Firmware using a Windows Vista Lappy/Pc? AFAIK WP8 Phones are not detected by Zune so did MS released any other PC Suite for WP8?

WP8 firmwares are updated by manufacturers respective software suits. Like nokia lumia wp8 can be updated by Nokia care suit or Nokia update for retail.

Funniest part is it is android 2.3 but marketed as 4.0
They have changed the build.prop to make it seem like android 4.0

In their ADs they use WP8 and Nokia's icons. I hope they get sued like hell. Such a blatant and shameless ripoff.

I updated my Lumia 920 firmware to 1308. Amazing battery life. The method of clearing temporary files is good.

Whoa! I already am happy with my battery life pre-update. How many hours were you getting earlier and under what level of usage and how many are you getting post update?
Also, how did you update?

EDIT: just checked and see update is available for mine as well. However I'll wait before downloading to see how is the public response :D

Its been 7 hours, battery saver on, WiFi connected, made a couple of skype calls and still battery is 100%.

You'll need to manually check for the updates.
First, connect to wifi, it will not work on data connection.
Then go to Settings > Phone Updates > and click on "Check for Updates"
It will automatically start downloading the updates.

Oh no. Thats looks like that battery bug :(

Can you switch off the phone and then turn it on again and see what is the percentage of the battery reported then?
