For Cortana. Change your region to USA. Then set your language to English, USA. And turn on Location on your device.

To attach documents to mail. Go to your documents, hold down the file you want to send, select share, choose your service (gmail, ymail, Hmail etc). Document will be attached to the email of your choice and you can proceed to type your message.

Really some submissions on this forum has been misleading people. Windows 10 (update to windows 7/8.1) for PC and tablet form factors is what is released this month. Windows phone 10 OS official release isn't due till October.

Experts in the house please enlighten me.Which is a better phone in terms of quality and services?Googles' android phones or windows phones?Or are they just similar products by different manufacturers?
I've searched the internet for days but couldn't get any credible answers

Why don't you try detailing the things you want in a phone first and your budget? That will help narrow your search.

No ma'am.That isn't where i'm driving at .My question is,are Google android phones similar to windows mobile phones? or are they completely different?Do they possess thesame/different operating systems,apps and softwares?If they are different?Which phone maker creates better quality phones between both companies?(That is microsoft and google).I am aware microsoft as a company,dominates the PC software industry and even the videogame industry with its x-boxes but when it comes to the smartphone industry,it is behind apples i-phone and googles android.Why is that?Is it because they make less quality mobile phones or did they just ignore the smartphone industry for too long?

Oh okay.
Android and Windows phone have different OS (as the names imply). You can find some similar apps in the store of both OS, but Andy's got more.
I think htc, samsung and nexus will give you good android mobile devices.
For windows, everyone (or almost everyone) goes with the lumia.

Thank you for clarifying some of my questions.Last question,why do you prefare using microsofts' windows phones rather than googles' androids?Are windows phones like the lumia series underrated in the smartphone market?Or are they just inferior products compared to googles android brands like LG and tecno?Or do googles' android fanboys/girls simply use them because of the hundreds of apps they can acquire with the phones?

This is what you do in case of Microsoft office documents. Open the office app in your phone. Then locate the document and long-press on it. You get the options in screenshot. Select "share" and you have the options to share including thru e-mail.

To share from the phone file system, get Microsoft "files" app installed on your device. You can then manage your files therein, including sharing them.

Here are some file managers that are good.

Well bro,na 4G update tinx d tin brin for me ooo,i nw hav 2G,3G nd 4G ntwrk nw,

I had 4G available on my L920 the moment I updated from WP8.0 to WP8.1. Not long afterwards, I was notified of a "critical update" for WP8.1 developers preview yo upgrade from Cyan to Denim. And zap! The 4G just disappeared after the update. I was seriously pained meeen. So watch it bro.

Windows phone 8.0 to 8.1 is about 900mb size. MSFT will prefer you use WiFi to download that much data, hence the continual request that you connect to WiFi. There are other critical but minor updates that are around 60-200mb. You are allowed to download those ones using your cellular data.

What you can do now is to get your sim into another windows or android phone, switch on the WiFi sharing on that phone and connect your Lumia to it.

Alternatively, if you use Glo and you don't wanna remove your micro sim from your L822, you can share your 1 gig thru datashare to another Glo SIM on any Windows phone or android device, then get your L822 connected to their broadcasted WiFi.

Enjoy the great world of WP10 for phones. I'm still temporizing in my own case though. Think I'll wait it out till September.

Nope, there's nothing wrong with the Lumia devices. Nokia makes a helluva phone.
I use Windows because I prefer the OS to Android (personal choice) and it works fine for my needs.

And Lumia phones aren't underrated. Lumia devices are like the Nexus of the Windows OS.

Just try and give a general review of the Windows 10, your disappointment ........ & others

abduldope:
have this upadte since last week bt yet jst to dwnld odinary 5kb file will only lead to dwnld failed

I'm thinking this is a file system error.
I'm trying to think how to fix it.

Though a system reset will fix it, but that's too drastic.

WP 10 is smoother than WP 8.1 Update 2 that i was on before, although some apps take forever to load. i.e bbm.

Email app improved.

Icons are looking better & now have full transparent background.

Improved battery life.

Improved and more functions on the camera app

the new dialpad & contacts app looks sexy.

the office apps have been totally revamped, loads faster and quite smooth.

one can now switch between 2g/3g/ 4g. I use both Mtn and Smile LTE (very fast) as my device is dual sim Lte.

I would rate the new OS 8/10

Did your phone come with 4g before the upgrade?
What about that screen shot bug?

Yes, Dual sim LTE. Its not really a bug, Screenshot is just disabled by Microsoft on this build.

At your own risk!. Go to the marketplace download the "Windows Insider" app. You can choose to use fast or slow builds.

kaydguru:


Yes,. Dual sim LTE

Ok.... Thanks for the review, how can I get the upgrade? Will I be notified? What about that screen shot?
