Also note that I’m disappointed at my inability to post a picture of a snake: the ultimate sacrifice to access front-page.
Wicked man. Just wicked grin

But Nigerians are not smiling o. The passengers in my bus this morning wanted to kill the driver for playing his music too loud. Like haba! Since when have Lagosians complained about 'noise'? Lagos is noise and noise is Lagos. It's a state of orderly chaos. There seem to be a general consensus though that these dire days should be witnessed in sobriety.

I can't even shout *sigh*

Hi ceaser, I just installed the Stanbic IBTC app on my 920 with no problems.

It did ask that the phone's location must be enabled. Maybe check if that of your phone is enabled.
That's true. I recall my Diamond bank app wouldn't download until I turned on location services.

Lots of diverse kinds of silly bugs presents with this Win10. Here are my own share of it:
- blurry, low resolution rear camera pictures
- only one of the two SIMs can toggle between 2G and 3G. The other is restricted to 2G.
- among others....

Such bugs has also been reported on my Win 10 powered PC. It's crazy!
Do you also notice the triple blink when you change a song on Groove?
Or that weird blink that happens when you open an app?
Or the inability to copy and paste data across apps?

I hope they release regular updates to fix these issues. I already sent a report using the Windows Feedback app.


Was chatting with Cortana yesterday. That lady is funny grin

Try this:
- restart the phone
- uninstall the app if it still appears in the list of installed apps.
- free up some memory. I'm truly shocked that you have only 100MB free in a 32GB phone!! shocked
- Restart the phone again
- Try the installation again.

Let's know how it goes. Cheers
As in eh 100mb of 32g. Wow! Don't know what I'll ever do to use up that much space.

I admire natural hair like Ty Bello's and Chimamanda's-- darn who styles their hair?

But I can't go natural. I just can't deal with fussing over my hair like that. I can't. I cant deal with fussing over anything at all except where my thoughts are going.

Both episodes were just undecided

@Reyna screaming... So now the stone is 'dead' maybe she'll finally go have a life huh?
Too bad Stefan is trapped in there now.

What was Enzo up to? I hope he hasn't been feeding Bonbon with that drug, too. And where is Bonnie btw? Was hoping to see her.

I'm kinda lost. Does it mean Damon didn't think things through before volunteering to take Stefan's scar or was that some shiit story the writers just added undecided Didn't make any sense at all.

Marylou and her girlfriend smiley Sweet love. Reyna didn't see that one coming at all.

As for TO, *long hiss* There's a better way to die mehn. Just chop off your heads rather than keep the bullet you spent so much time trying to acquire.
But Lucien is DEVIOUS cheesy Damn I didn't see that coming grin
Okay so TO wasn't entirely bleh. Next week will be nice. Real nice.

This one is beautiful and good advice


How to Write a Poem

Learn to curse in three languages. When midday
yawns stack high and your eyelids flutter, fire up

the chain saw; there’s always something to dismember.
Make it new. Fear no bridges. Accelerate through

curves, and look twice before leaping over fires,
much less into them. Read bones, read leaves, read

the dust on shelves and commit to memory a thousand
discarded lines. Next, torch them. Take more than you

need, buy books, scratch notes in the dirt and watch
them scatter down nameless alleys at the evening’s first

gusts. Gather words and courtesies. Guard them carefully.
Play with others, observe birds, insects and neighbors,

but covet your minutes alone and handle with bare hands
only those snakes you know. Mourn the kindling you create

and toast each new moon as if it might be the last one
to tug your personal tides. When driving, sing with the radio.

Always. Turn around instead of right. Deny ambition.
Remember the freckles on your first love’s left breast.

There are no one-way streets. Appreciate the fragrance
of fresh dog poo while scraping it from the boot’s sole.

Steal, don’t borrow. Murder your darlings and don’t get
caught. Know nothing, but know it well. Speak softly

and thank the grocery store clerk for wishing you
a nice day even if she didn’t mean it. Then mow the grass,

grill vegetables, eat, laugh, wash dishes, talk, bathe,
kiss loved ones, sleep, dream, wake. Do it all again.

Ah thanks smiley

@ UjSizzle Did you check if you have another available update after effecting the initial upgrade? Goto PHONE UPDATE in settings, hit d button and confirm whether or not you have another major update. Very important! I performed two major updates.

YoungPo413 I came up with the idea of removing Sim card prior to starting the upgrade because I experienced 4 failed attempts. Try updating first without Sim removal. You might then remove Sim if that fails.

Lots of apps are phasing out with this new OS: Lumia camera has been replaced with Windows camera. Howbeit, you can't tell me that a product of a 10-year long experiment WOULDN'T be better than an old, already existing product? Windows 10 Mobile is dope! Windows 8.1 became crappy after I experienced Win 10.

removing a nano Sim card is a bit stressful, can an airplane mode do the job? Cos I really need to upgrade my big Sisters 1520, my mums 540 and my kid sis 532.. Thanks in advance.
I don't know if that will suffice. I only tried the sim removal because it worked for someone here.
PhonesRe: Windows Mobile Naija Forum by UjSizzle(f): 11:42pm On Mar 29, 2016
And no it doesn't allow you record calls.
I'm actually expecting a Lumia update from MS to fix some minor but no less annoying glitches in this OS.

Thank you. smiley

Before upgrading, you did a RESET. Did it wipe HERE MAps and your downloaded maps? Is it still in your 930 now? Remember that the HERE apps will be removed from the Win10 store today.

Please check if the the inbuilt voice recorder be used to record phone calls.

Also, any idea of how much data was consumed downloading the upgrade?
No, I didn't have to reset my phone before or after the upgrade. All I did was remove my sim card, turn off battery saver and connect to a better wifi. So yeah, Here map and all my other 8.1 apps still exist. Those with upgrades prompt you to upgrade, otherwise it's all fine.

I really can't say how much data I used since I was hijacking my bros internet grin
It kinda wiped off my data sense info after the upgrade coz when I checked all I saw was about 40+Mb.

Hello. I just found and subscribed to this thread.

I'm a longtime Nokia fan. That's why I started using WP in 2013 (after using Symbian, Maemo, Meego). I own the Lumia 920 and 930 (both running WP 8.1)

I've been waiting for WM10 and quitely monitoring news about it. I wanted to upgrade my 930. For personal reasons, I decided not to join the Insider program (although I joined that for WIn10 for PC).

After reading several articles on AllAboutWindowsPhone (eg http://allaboutwindowsphone.com/features/item/21340_Of_versions_and_branches-the_e.php ) and the last few pages on this thread, I'm not sure I'll upgrate to WM10 anymore. I love HERE maps, and hate that WM10 wont support it anymore. WM10 has had several issues over the past months and I don't think it's worth the upgrade. It's also a shame, and it's safe to say, that many x20 Lumias will not get WP10.

I'll keep using my 930 on WP8.1. Maybe in a few months, when Microsoft polishes WM10 and makes it worthwhile, then I'll upgrade.
I use a 930 and just got it upgraded and there are so many upsides to win10 that I can see right away. I also had my reservations concerning the upgrade, but less than 24hrs after it's been done, I have no regrets yet.
Still, my 620 still runs win 8.1 so I have a backup in case this becomes annoying later.

So far the camera functionality is still great. No visible changes I can see.
We did lose the Games hub though, but i think that was replaced by Xbox instead.
Grove is now the official music player. It looks better, acts better. I had all my music after the upgrade, but lost the playlists i created. that's sad. But easily replicated from my 620.
The emails are fully integrated into the outlook account now, so it looks a lot like you would have on the droids. And God it looks good kiss
More options in the action centre.
Inbuilt voice recorder and flashlight.
I've been more of a Maps patronizer from 8.1 denim than Here Maps, but i think if you have the offline map downloaded you can still run it.
Office Suite looks better too and come as individual apps, not integrated into one app.
Skype and messaging are also integrated.
Battery life didn't give any noticeable change.
Edge. You should experience the beauty of the edge browser kiss

That's all I've seen for now. The only downsides so far was that one time my screen blanked out (black) when i tried swiping back to my start screen. Pressing the power button off and then on again fixed it. And it also looks like the soft reset pattern may have changed too.
Update took approximately one hour.

I'm yet to explore what options the store has for now, but I'll keep you posted on any developments.

And welcome to our thread smiley
