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.

    • AMD releases hotfix for driver install issues on Windows 10 PCs by Taras Buria Earlier this week, AMD released an important graphics driver update. Version 26.6.2 brought AMD FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen Radeon lineup, the RX 7000 series, giving users better upscaling tech that was previously locked to the newest GPUs. However, the driver turned out to be a little buggy, with users reporting installation issues on systems still running Windows 10. AMD quickly acknowledged the bug and today released a hotfix to resolve the problem. The AMD 26.6.3 Hotfix update is now available for download from the official website. Given that it is a hotfix release, it has only one change in its release notes: AMD announced the update on its official X account and added that a WHQL driver update with the necessary fixes would be released next week. Meanwhile, users can apply the hotfix or roll back to the previous driver using the official AMD Cleanup Utility. You can download AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.3 Hotfix Preview Driver from the official website here. It is compatible with all currently supported graphics cards and 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
    • Amazon Prime Day 2026 deal sees Samsung Odyssey 49" 240Hz QD-OLED monitor at lowest price by Sayan Sen Earlier today we covered a very good deal on JBL's BAR 800 Dolby Atmos soundbar system as the unit is available for just $600 as part of Amazon Prime Day 2026 deals. That's not all though as there are many more discounts to choose from. If you are looking for a high-end monitor, Samsung's 49 inch G9 QD-OLED gaming monitor is a solid deal too as it's currently just $855 (purchase link under the specs table down below). It is a super-ultrawide (32:9) 1440p curved gaming monitor and as such should offer a very immersive experience. The G93SC is a 49-inch QD-OLED (Quantum Dot OLED) screen and that means it should have excellent contrast as well as color reproduction. Brightness is a bit lacking though so if you are looking to set it up in a relatively bright room, you may be better off with something else. Speaking of external light and brightness, the major difference on the G93SC vs the newer G93SD is that the latter comes with Samsung's "Glare Free" technology to reduce glare while the C model packs a glossy finish. The technical specifications of the Samsung G93SC are given in the table below: Specification Value Panel Type OLED Screen Shape Curved Screen Curvature 1800R Resolution DQHD (5120 × 1440) Aspect Ratio 32:9 Brightness (Typical) 250 cd/m² Brightness (Minimum) 200 cd/m² Contrast Ratio 1,000,000:1 HDR Support VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400 HDR10+ HDR10+ Gaming Response Time 0.03 ms (GTG) Refresh Rate Up to 240 Hz Viewing Angle 178° Horizontal / 178° Vertical Color Support 1 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% DCI-P3 (CIE1976) Adaptive Sync FreeSync Premium Pro / G-SYNC Compatible DisplayPort 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 HDMI 1 × HDMI 2.1 Micro HDMI 1 × Micro HDMI 2.1 USB Hub 3 × USB 3.0 Speakers Built-in Speaker Output 5W × 2 Channels Operating Temperature 10°C – 40°C Operating Humidity 10–80% (Non-condensing) Stand Type Height Adjustable Stand (HAS) Height Adjustment 120.0 ± 5.0 mm Tilt -2° (±2°) to 15° (±2°) Wall Mount 100 × 100 mm (VESA) Included HDMI Cable HDMI-to-Micro HDMI Cable Included DisplayPort Cable Yes Get it at the link below: Samsung 49" Odyssey G93SC Series Curved Gaming Monitor, QD-OLED: $854.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US with Prime) Prime subscription can be cancelled within three business days at no cost.

    • Actually Windows 11 is the GUI from Windows 10 X slapped onto Windows 10. Hence the many performance issues and initial limitations of the UI, like all the restrictions on the task bar placement and features. You could not even right click on the Taskbar and bring up task manager when it first shipped. Windows 10X was truly a new OS from the ground up. Basically a lightweight OS that ran containers for various app types. Win32 got its own container. Performance was not good and OEM’s pushed back on it, but wanted a new OS to push Pc sales. Hence Windows 11. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10X
