I think they start appearing once you have 40-ish apps installed

I've updated my 920 and everything is super so far. That said, glance screen sucks cock. I swear the whole "hover your hand over the screen to activate" is just a myth.

I think it's 25.
Works flawlessly on my 1020.

Still waiting. Nokia and Windows Phone sucks. I'm going back to Android.
The Amber updates are now live in Navifirm.
Apart from the one for EE
Booooo!!!!
In the past they've not been too bad with the updates..
I downloaded the new camera apps too, only to be greated with a 'WRONG VERSION OF WINDOWS' message Grr!
If you don't mind a reset I can download it for you.
Get a HTC One. Never having to worry about getting OS on time updates is worth it.
LMAO That's a good one!

Is anyone here using Rando? I've been using it since it came out on Android and I'm really glad it's on WP, too. It's a really great little app.
All Things D got an article about it.

It's a great little app when you're a bit bored.
WP app: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/rando/e407d57b-f15b-41ee-9236-ddc854226615

You can get a new and unlocked cyan 920 for 299.
I think I want yellow.
Plus I am a dirty poor, so it might take another few months.

Thanks for this!
So Nokia updated what "coming soon" and "waiting for approval" means.
Waiting for approval = undergoing final testing with country or operator to achieve approval.
Coming soon = approved, in final pre-release checks.
So it should be pretty soon for Rogers then. Also dat ATT premier support.

Glance screen is working fine now. Well, it was working fine all the time, but I'm a dumbass and was trying to activate it the wrong way.
Amber is really amazing and has fixed all my issues with WP so far.

Except the no apps thing.

has calmed down a bit.
Where do I go to see where people have looked at my rando? I can see the last rando I got, but I don't see a place where I can look at where my photos went.
This is what always ticked me off about MS: Everything is tied by one of their teams.
Example: You can't use MS points till The Xbox team kill it...years later and they did.
Zune/Xbox Video is another one.
Oh well...at least it's all coming out nicely in the end.
Damn, I hope Country Variants come faster. I dont think they'll release all the updates before November.
Anybody else get JSON responses shown in the browser when they install apps to the phone from the web store?

24 hours without a single reboot.
Amber definitely fixed my 920.

very bizarre that you even came across that frequent reboot to begin with. That's unacceptable.

The lack of share extension is something many android friends complained about WP.
yes, now the majority of the big apps are there but those apps are still lacking. developers just don't update or improve their apps enough on WP. Spotify, Tunein, and others are shitty on WP in comparison to ios/android. Almost 3 years and an app as big as Yelp has had 1 update, and that was only because of Nokia's help.

At some point I was averaging 4 reboots per day. I even lost some important calls because the phone would reboot inside of my pocket and I wouldn't notice it until I pulled it out to check the e-mail or whatever.
Thank God it's now fixed.
Yes, it's dumb how there is no universal share thingy in WP.
It's a pain in the ass sending news to WhatsApp via other apps.

Holy moly. My phones don't reboot that much, and I run beta software that's expected to crash!
The only retail consistent reboots I found were Bluetooth related or 'beats' audio related on the 8x. For some reason I had a pair of ear buds that could cause a lock when I stuck it in the phone once every two/three weeks.
Where at? Ebay?
It's crazy. Think I'm going to stay in the bubble here.
That's a good thread.

Just read through some of it. Yikes.
WTF. The update proceeded and took up 500+MB of that 1GB space I had, now I'm left with 470MB and it tells me the update needs 500+MB again. This is fucked up.
I'm using a HTC 8X with only 8GB storage. Are there any apps out there that'll make it easy for me to get more space? If I delete any more stuffs that I use, I might as well reset the phone.
