Hi guys. There's this really nice app that was suggested in the store for those who want to learn languages, and it's free. Duolingo. Really cool too

Every os has that limitation. The question is Microsoft gives you the option to download via mobile subscription if you go to the page with the download kini

Rili? That would be so so cool. So I have d option to download wateva I want via mobile subscription?

Elxandre:

Have you tried UC browser for the heavy download?

Will uc web allow you to download via your mobile subscription? I also love the lumia 1520. Should be my next fone, bt I'm kinda worried about all these limitations

kinesis:
If it is a problem that cant b solved her appropriate it to the right channels. I onced asked the group to question joebelfiore on twitter about some issues but I doubt any one did. Take a brief history at what android and ios used to be before they became what they r today and c that Microsoft may not be as quick as you want them to be, but r much faster with what they do. Keep in mind that I have successfully used all three oses and I can categorically say I am very well pleased with quality control and successive updates Microsoft is currently bringing to the table. As for ur 3g issue I cannot explain why u r stuck on edge. Have u considered the bands ur phone is using and the availability of that on the network u r using? What phone r u even using btw

If you want to pass out a message through the WP user voice, you need to get alot of supporters to vote for the idea, and I don't have enough time to go on Wcentral soliciting for votes.

I'm still using a 520
I have been wanting to buy a new phone, but I decided to wait for W10! I want to see what it has to offer.

You should be able to download large files with UC browser!

You can also download files above the limit from the Windows store by setting UC browser to speed mode, them downloading the file from Windowsphone .com to your memory card.
them reboot your phone and select install local apps.

i have asked joebelfiore a direct ? on twitter and he responded. trust that if its sickening that somethings are not there, you will get votes.

Lol I don't know. There are language options for English speaking countries, and I never paid attention to all of them.

VLC for windows phones is now available

deniceguy:

I chose German. It seems like one is restricted to one language.

Nope. There's an option to chose another language too. I'm taking two currently.

Oh ok... Will check again. Meanwhile, try that link above. The VLC is cool.

Which vlc is cool. A player that can't pause a video. I saw on wpcentral that it seems the link of the private got leaked to public because all the complaint from beta testers wasn't addressed.

Hehe. Guy, you dey vex oh. Anyway, mine just started experiencing problem. I didn't have that issue of pausing. One of the issues I had was that while playing music, the timer was not moving.

Was at Onitsha Main Market, I checked the price of Microsoft Lumia 535, at one of the dealers and the price is 27k. While Nokia Lumia 630 dual is 28k. Lumia 625, 37k etc. Now, I was wondering how the price of the older Lumia is still higher despite the fact that one can always choose the Lumia 535 over some older Lumia devices.

Specs I guess.

UjSizzle:

Specs I guess.

yeah...
for example, certain sensors have been removed from most of these new devices.
The 530 is a good example.

I've got an unlocked UK used Lumia 822. But the internet sharing won't turn on. Solutions please

Add me to d group 08121282233

Sorry to say (and please don't be offended) but that was very ignorant of you to make comments without doing proper tests. Cortana is way cooler than Siri and she's improving. The major problem is the African accent we use in asking her stuffs. That's why she doesn't catch some stuffs sometimes but she's super cool. She can sing, give you jokes, predict games and also sound funny when you ask those off-key questions people ask when they want to spend some time. Infact, she is one of the reasons why i still stick to Windows today.

Cortana way more interactive than Siri. you just have to check out the Cortana help page to help you understand how to use her better. I use her to keep tabs on my fav team, scoreline, other match updates and my tech news. Also good at reminders, Cortana knows my bro, sis; i set it up. You just have to have a reliable internet connection and the right accent for her to respond correctly. Also Cortana works offline for tasks that don't require it. Siri has its won strength to but in no way is Cortana a slouch

Na me you wan use practice eh?



Nice one....i have abandoned it since cos of time

Elxandre:

Nonsense!
I State that all OS support locking data to 3G only mode and you say i'm hating?
Right now I can see an Edge symbol on my Lumia while my bro's phone has H+.
Did you know WP once had it in Lumia amber, only to remove it in the black update?

keep your brand loyalty to yourself at the detriment of quality and features you deserve!
The Microsoft you're so loyal to support their apps on Android and iOS while Same apps on WP are pale in comparison!

Details for win10 mobile will be out this month and Microsoft has replied to win fans that an update for its apps are in the works. patience, that's it. Microsoft is only being wise cos they know it's and Android got most customers and they will make more from those platforms as well as advertising their products thereby enticing consumers to make the switch. Win10 has to be perfect cos i see it as Microsoft last card to make an impression to IOS and Android faithfuls. I believe Microsoft apps are on par with IOS save for the office app which joe beilfore promised an update.

Am moving this discussion to your thread

Alfred234:
Lol u knw Siri chats with u, u can ask siri some stupid questions and she will reply but Cortana only keeps reminders, help u find things from d internet and play music. I know cortana will get better tho

Hahaha. You missed it all. Cortana is actually more advanced than siri. In addition to the things you said above, Cortana equally answers your questions, sings if asked to and tells jokes as well. It even quote bible verses and Quran verses. It does lots more.

Please do you guys know any app i can use in streaming live matches and movie on windows phone 8.1

Actually you can, dial ##3282# to go into the Field Test mode.
Once you're in tap the options bar at the lower end of your digitizer i.e. those three dots that appear at the lower end of your screen. Click Settings once the bar comes up and here you can select under Network Type 2G or 3G or 4G or whatever. Make sure you toggle TNS off. Might require a boot though. Do that and you're good to go.
