If I may ask you. When did you start using a WP device ?

Sometimes it's not just how long, many factors contribute to individual proficiency.
If @kelechimarie is female as registered, and following this thread, she will likely enjoy Microsoft Windows more than men who're afraid of Maths and Technology.

kelechiMarie:
Pls help I have been unable to open my store and I keep on getting the error code 805a8011. I can't download any games or apps, what can I do?
Secondly is it possible to download WhatsApp without using the store?

Kelly,
You can also go to settings - storage sense, and set apps to download to phone, instead of SD. Many generic Microsoft apps will not download into SD. Music and Pictures can remain in the SD.

I started my own in October, about 11 weeks ago, but I've made much progress, because I'm willing to sacrifice time, and money buying data, and constantly following discussions on this thread, and interacting with Microsoft people. That's obviously how Microsoft wants people to master their system.

It's nice seeing a fellow WP enthusiast. Welcome to the great club.

Am also an avid Windows mobile/phone user since windows mobile 6.5 all the way to Win 10, and I believe the OS though wonderful also has her fair share of challenges.

We don't need to make our love for windows blur the fact there are certain standards which are taken for granted elsewhere lacking in the OS. Though we are managing the situation doesn't mean we should shout down at those voicing similar complains.

Kelly,
It helps to constantly check phone updates: setting-phone updates.
If there's a pending update, many things, especially Stores, won't work in Microsoft Windows, until that is activated.

They upgrade their system continuously, because over 300 million thieves, this time not blacks, spend days, months, and years, trying to steal billions and trillions of dollars, online.

thanks. I did get an update request for the store which I ignored. I'll check for updates now and try to activate it. I'm female anyway thanks

Also I have an android tablet that I use for tweak /free browsing....the android is well equipped with games but lags alot compare to Ios and Wp...in Os compression IOS is the best but I want more than that boring background

When I wanted to buy Lumia 520 in 2012, I was discouraged by my youths, that it wasn't a good phone. I would have mastered Windows by now, if I didn't heed that wrong advice.
The point is that these youths are aping the spoilt youths in UK, who have everything so provided that there's not even any reason to go to school.
Now Trump threatens to switch off internet access to Africa if he's disrespected.
That's one reason we must explore every explorable. Under severe economic conditions they may begin to consider recolonising Africa. And there're many eager to help them, as in old times.

We have gone pass the stage of fan boys argument when the likes of 4ller, texazz, et al., were all active on this section a few years ago. What you consider best might just be trash to another.

What is key is to use what suits ones best, irrespective of the inherent flaws in the OS.

Windows phone OS architecture was built on simplicity and elegance. You only need a few instructions to get going. Concerning Trump, he is just being his usual silly and self centered self.

I am on 4g and I have upgraded and hard reset the handset. But I am using the internet explorer and maxthon browser and they seem quite good too

You see!
Most people who always oppose any notion on flaws in WP always have back up devices available.
From Dan Rubino( this one will write article on WP and pick up his iPhone straight up after ) to Jason ward, KallmemrB, Satya Nadella etc.

Hi.
Have you been using GlobalTV for matches Before now?

I once tried it during the last world cup, but I don't know if it isn't working anymore because of my slow Glo..

I doubt Lumia 925 has 3G lock.

Personally, I doubt I'd be happy with the iPhone 5s for a long period, since the restrictions are burdensome. (Jailbreak is an option, and I guess you know how that works)

The 925 is quite old indeed, but should still be quite capable!
I think they were both released in 2013 tho, so they can't be much more powerful than each other.

You can try buying the Lumia 640 XL, it's around 40k.
I'm not very sure it has that 3G feature too, you'd have to research yourself or maybe someone here will help you with info.
