Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Few months back, someone asked about Call blocking feature in Windows phone.
Now, it's coming in GDR2...

According to a new report, the GDR2 update for Windows Phone 8 features brand new APIs for call and SMS blocking/filtering. The API allows for the ability to block specific numbers that are not in your address book. The API also allows you to block phone calls that contain a private or anonymous number. The same goes for SMS messages, allowing users to block harassing texts.

I will HATE it if they again place mini USB on the top. The only reason I dislike Lumia 925 is because of placement of Mini USB on the top. That's a stone age concept.

^The question is would you buy if it has decent specs and is sensibly priced?

6 inch is a bit too big, but waiting for it anyways. looks closer than ever, this is the GDR3 flagship most probably with some form of oversampling camera.

Windows Phone 8 GDR2 update spotted for Nokia Lumia 920, 820

Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Guys,

I happened to break my Lumia 620

What happened is that I was in a hurry, going down my building's parking and somehow I hit a parked back while walking, and it was the phone in my pocket that got hit somehow, cracking the touchscreen glass. So the touch function has stopped working but rest of the phone is just fine. The Nokia care people said it will cost 3850 rs for new touchscreen.

This one is one of the quirks. Cant do it directly from the mailbox. Go to Office > press and hold > share .
That also means 1 attachment = 1 mail if the attachments are not images.

Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Anyone tried to update the GDR2 Update? I tried downloading the Update through Nokia Software Updater, it's whooping > 1.55GB. Will try later on 4G, or I'll better wait for the official OTA Update

He has L620, IIRC.

Re: The Windows Phone Thread

@mods: someone please add a poll to the thread with WP7.8 & WP8, so it maybe easier for people to help each others, when comes to different versions..

 

[krishnandu.sarkar]

Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Yup I have L620, WP8.

Anyway @Gearbox, I really don't understand how a poll between 7.x and 8.x can help us to help each other easily? One will not search through the poll everytime someone asks for help to know which version he's on.

I was thinking of the same

Maybe we can rename this thread to WP8. AFAIK, only Sujoy has 7.8 right now and he knows well to take care of himself

Re: The Windows Phone Thread

Coz, i thought the poll will act as a quick reference, if someone wants to know what 'other' is using, when he's replying to 'other's post w.r.t version.
