My Windows 10 Mobile experience is an F-


Recommended Posts

You do you expect a huge improvement in stability in a couple of weeks?

You are using pre-release software, so you should expect the issues you are describing.

Why not grade your Windows 10 Mobile experience after the software has actually been released?

Because that would make just to much sense.

Since it's less than a month that Windows 10 Mobile would be release, I would expect "release candidate"- quality builds by now.

Sure, there may be minor bugs here and there, but numerous build-in apps not opening? Come on.

--------

As an analogy:

If it's a month before a building opens to the public, can you really not tell if the building is nowhere near completion?

I'm using it on a Lumia 435 and it runs perfectly fine. I went from 8.1 to the preview build and it was lagging until I did the full reset and everything's been fine since. Only thing happening is an app called "Rate Your Device" pops up as needing updated in the store and it won't install. Nothing important though so no real issue there. An ithe known issue with the storage screen not displaying everything correctly, but it's actually working fine. Just a cosmetic thing there.

You're simply trolling. Plain and simple. You have no idea at all what could be fixed betwen 10581 and RTM build so you should stop whining.

Your issues could very well be related to you, NOT following the directions given. Have you done a master reset yet? No? Then quit complaining about apps not working when you can't even follow a simple guideline. You keep sidestepping and ignoring useful posts, only to pick out certain ones to say "Windows 10 Mobile comes out this month" and some building comparison which doesn't even fit here. Yet you keep regurgitating it.

Read the other posts that were made in this topic.

I suspect that there are a variety of factors at play other than the build's issues. You apparently did not follow the directions, for example.

Poor analogy.

From what I understand, build 10586 is going to be the RTM version so it'll be interesting how it all plays out. That being said though a lot can change between now and then with builds coming on after to address some of the issues you are referring to.

You're the type to walk into a building that's still under construction (but, but, but 3/4 done!!) and then sue the company if a brick falls on your head.

You've been given plenty of answers to which you respond with assumptions.  Sounds like a troll thread to  me.

Many of his/her threads come off as troll threads or just flat out made up stories. Shocker, OP has again abandoned a thread(you can see he/she is online and viewing) that went south for him/her. He/she was chiming in, replying pretty quickly with random assumptions, now nothing? No surprise there.

It's a month before the building is set to open. The building is still 3/4 done. I am sure wondering how 1/4 of the building will be completed in a month.

I will be on the look out for it.

You shouldn't have to do a reset once updating to 10. The early builds had some issues that a reset would fix but the goal obviously is to not have those issues.

The maps + edge issue may already be fixed. Did you ever do a reset on your 920 after the 8.0->8.1 update?

I have never reset my phone.

I have never reset my phone.

Ok, Maps + edge issue is known and fixed. Possible the fix also fixes Calendar/Data Sense. Issue came from devices that did 8.0->8.1->10 (was actually a bug in the 8.0->8.1 update).

Reset again lol! I'm only sort-of kidding; it may solve it.  You may end up having to restore to 8.1 with the Windows Device Recovery Tool and then updating to 10 again, but this close to launch (with Insider builds possibly coming tomorrow or Thursday) I would hold off until the next build before doing that because it is such a huge PITA.  Make sure during setup after a reset that you choose to start as a new device and not to restore from a backup, too.

I went ahead and restore back to Windows Phone 8 and upgraded all the way to Windows 10 Mobile. After that, I restore my data from backup.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel after all.

Surprisingly, everything seems fast. All the built-in apps (except Store) are able to load under 5 seconds.

If anything, it seems that the Lumia 920 is very capable to running Windows 10 Mobile very well: it's just very tedious and painstaking to get there.

None of the Nokia apps work, but I guess they just haven't been update to be compatible with Windows 10 Mobile.

    • You might be right... Look at his name, hiding in plain sight: hAmId.
    • ExplorerPatcher 26100.8457.70.3 by Razvan Serea ExplorerPatcher is a versatile and free tool that allows you to tweak and enhance the Windows Explorer. It comes with a range of useful features, including the ability to add new context menu items, change file name colors, and enable hidden features. Feature summary Choose between Windows 11 or Windows 10 taskbar (with labels support, small icons and lots of customization). Disable Windows 11 context menu and command bar in File Explorer and more. Open Start to All apps by default, choose number of frequent apps to show, display on active monitor and more. Choose between the Windows 11, Windows 10 and Windows NT Alt-Tab window switcher with customization. Lots of quality of life improvements for the shell, like: Skin tray menus to match Windows style, make them behave like flyouts and center them relative to the icon. Choose action when left and/or right clicking the network icon. Revert to the Windows 7 search box in File Explorer, or disable Windows Search altogether. Disable immersive menus and use mitigations that help you run the real classic theme without glitches. Discover the program's full range of features by reading this wiki article. ExplorerPatcher 26100.8457.70.3 changelog: Tested on OS builds 22621.4317, 22631.7079, 26100.6899, 26100.8037, 26200.8246, 26200.8457, 26300.8493, and 28000.2113. TIP: Windows Defender no longer flags ExplorerPatcher. It is no longer needed to configure Defender exclusions. Enjoy! Important Update for Windows Insider Users If you're running Windows 11 Beta build 26220.8474 or Experimental build 26300.8493, updating ExplorerPatcher is highly recommended. Microsoft has removed parts of the old Windows 10 Start menu from these builds, which caused ExplorerPatcher's Windows 10-style taskbar and Start menu to crash. This update fixes those issues and ensures Explorer starts correctly after future Windows updates. Because the required components are no longer included in Windows, the Windows 10 Start menu option has been disabled on these builds and future builds that lack the necessary files. A temporary workaround is to replace StartTileData.dll with a version from build 26xxx.8457, but this solution may stop working in future releases. The good news: development on the Windows 10 Start menu isn't over yet. More updates are planned. Highlights Fixed crashes affecting the Windows 10 battery flyout on Windows builds 25951 and newer. As part of that fix, network flyout buttons now behave like they did before Windows 11 version 24H2. Changes to the Primary taskbar location on screen setting now apply instantly without requiring a restart. ExplorerPatcher no longer modifies Windows 11 taskbar auto-hide settings when Explorer starts. The Open Start in All apps by default option is now hidden when the new Windows 11 Start menu is enabled. Fixed Windows 10 Start menu crashes on very early Windows 11 builds (21996–22000.51). Fixed a crash in Registry Editor when switching to thumbnail view during registry import/export operations. Improved compatibility with recent Windows builds, especially ARM64 and upcoming 26H1 releases. Improved overall ARM64 performance. Added Greek language translations. Thanks to @KonVetsos! ep_taskbar Improvements ep_taskbar now supports all 43 Windows 11 display languages. Fixed several issues in the system tray and other taskbar components. For mod developers: DLL naming has been simplified and made easier to understand. For mod developers: internal TrayUI changes provide better stability across Windows builds that use different taskbar implementations. Windows 10 Start Menu Improvements To help preserve compatibility, ExplorerPatcher now includes a newly recreated version of the tile layout engine that Microsoft removed in build 26xxx.8474. Current limitations: Tiles may occasionally overlap when pinned in certain ways. Restarting StartMenuExperienceHost.exe or Explorer usually corrects the layout. Further improvements are planned. Additional Fixes Added a blacklist that prevents ExplorerPatcher's shell extension from loading inside specific applications where it may cause problems. Updated Windows 10 Start menu animation support for newer ARM64 Insider builds. Fixed a rare taskbar initialization deadlock that could occur during startup. Start10 Updates Addressed a new compatibility issue caused by Microsoft's ongoing removal of tablet mode code in Windows 11 25H2 Experimental builds. Pinned tiles are no longer reset after repeated crashes. Various wording and interface text improvements throughout the application. Translation and UI Several interface strings have been cleaned up and clarified. Thanks to @sefinek for wording improvements. Please consult the README for more details.
