What’s Causing Windows Phone 8 To Randomly Reset?



Unexpected device resets have got to be one of the most infuriating problems that can creep up with smartphones. You’re typing-up a long email, just about to send, when out of the blue your phone decides to power-cycle. The worst part is not knowing just what triggered the reset, leaving us powerless to do anything different in the hopes of avoiding a repeat of the incident. That’s the situation a number of new Windows Phone 8 users now find themselves in.

WP8 support forums have been lit-up with reports from users of these unpredictable resets. Attempts to narrow-down the cause have largely been in vain; different models from different manufacturers seem similarly affected, and there’s no clear pattern of installed software or anything else that might contribute to the problem.

That might point to some sort of instability inherent to Windows Phone 8. On the other hand, that could be getting ahead of ourselves a little, and there’s always the chance that a number of disparate issues, all cropping-up around the same time thanks to the platform just launching, could be creating the appearance of a single, yet widespread bug.

Have any of you new WP8 owners noticed a rash of unexplained resets with your phones? If so, has your experience led to any personal theories on what could be causing this to happen?

Microsoft “Meet Your Match” Campaign Compares Windows Phone To Android and iPhone



“We bet Windows Phone is a better match for you”, says the official wording on this playlist by Windows Phone on YouTube. You surely remember the “Smoked by Windows Phone” series of videos that have kicked off at this year’s CES, putting Microsoft employees using Windows Phone 7 against regular users of competing platforms.

If the Windows Phone 7 “smoked” series aimed at showing off the speed of certain Microsoft-platform features, the Windows Phone 8 “Meet Your Match” campaign doesn’t necessarily only focus on speed. The company wants to demonstrate how Windows Phone 8 is better, easier, more useful, and more fun;  it is still a “a side-by-side comparison of us vs. the other guys [...] but now it’s about why our phones and features are a better match for you, no matter who you are or what you’re into.”

Check out some of the videos by clicking on the source link below and find out how the Lumia 920 is according to Microsoft “the best camera phone out there, period” (check out what we think) and how the HTC Windows Phone 8X makes an iPhone user say her Apple device “sucks” [sic]. Oh, and Android users are also turned!

Misspelling "Windows Phone" Makes Google Maps Work

For more info about this experiment, visit
http://matthiasshapiro.com/2013/01/06/misspelling-windows-phone-makes-google-maps-work-explained/

As of January 5, 2013 Google Maps doesn't load on my Windows Phone 8 device. Google has stated:

The mobile web version of Google Maps is optimized for WebKit browsers such as Chrome and Safari. However, since Internet Explorer is not a WebKit browser, Windows Phone devices are not able to access Google Maps for the mobile web.

I thought this was weird so I did a short experiment to see if that was true. Watch the video..

Razmisljam se da uzme HTC HD2 i da ubacim WP 7.8, kazu da radi super na njemu. Mnogo mi se svidja ovaj WP novi. Ne znam kakav je u radu, pa ako mozete vi korisnici da iznesete neko misljenje u odnosu na Android.

Microsoft has not confirmed the rollout of Windows Phone 7.8, but rumors indicate that the update is just round the corner and will be available from the end of January.



Rumors are circling regarding the release of Windows Phone 7.8 for a while and now Windows Phone Colombia reports that the long-awaited Windows Phone 7.8 update will start rolling out on Jan. 31.

"As of January 31 and during the first quarter of 2013 some phones with Windows Phone 7.5 will be receiving 7.8 update" stated the Windows Phone Colombia's Facebook post (translated).

The rumor coincides with Australian carrier Telstra's handset update table that shows an update schedule for its Nokia Lumia 800 beginning Jan. 31.

Furthermore, UK carrier O2 tweeted "Hi there, the 7.8 Windows Phone update will be released by the end of January and will be available via Zune."

The Windows Phone 7.8 is expected to bridge the gap between Windows Phone 7.5 and Windows Phone 8. The key new feature in Windows Phone 7.8 is the updated Start screen, with support for three resizable tiles. In addition, the number of accent colors has been doubled to 20.

The update will allow the lock screen of a device to offer support for automatically using the Bing picture of the day as the background. The update will also enable lockscreen support for a PIN/password to aid better pocket- and child-lock screen security.

The idea of the update is to make Windows Phone 7.5 users feel that their handset is new and fresh. The update may also keep current Windows Phone users from switching to another mobile OS once their current contract expires.

Even though Microsoft has not officially confirmed the roll out of Windows Phone 7.8, all reports point towards a Jan. 31 release. We will have to wait and see if Windows Phone 7.8 makes its way to users soon by the end of January.
