MyPhone - Keeping Windows Mobile Alive

Just wanted to say that I often think of switching to a competitors phone (rhymes with "google" ) but I always think twice about it now that I've discovered the myphone service. I can't wait to see how it grows and what features are continued to be added.

Great job guys, keep up the good work.

 

- looks like Nokia are going with Android in future..

As far as I am concerned, Windows 10 Mobile is dead. I bought the ICON two years ago and it's still on 8.1 and no 10 in the future.
The ICON was a flagship phone for MS but looks like the Titanic now. Fool me once shame on you, Fool me twice and shame on me.

Honestly I simply don't care what Microsoft promises now, Windows phone is long gone as viable system to me, it's not that it was bad, I really enjoyed my windows phone.
With the whole windows 10 thing I have just simply lost all faith in Microsoft

 

..it's not that bad
- did you read the headline?

- just means a change of direction for Nokia
- and a change of manufacturer for the hardware stuff..

 

Nokia phones to me have always been very well built, i think a move to android is a great idea for Nokia

Hi there.

Ms can say what it likes - and Windows Mobile is obviously a high up exec's pet project but even Ms can't buck the market indefinitely.

Whatever the merits or otherwise of Windows phone - and there ARE some good things about Windows phone - it's a dead duck --almost NOBODY is developing sensible everyday commonly used apps for it (Banking, travel, e-commerce - billing etc). Not all phone users are purely interested in playing games or "twittering" all day.

You can't empty the Pacific Ocean using a thimble -- that's what Ms are almost trying to do with their dogged perserverance of the Doomed Windows phone project.

Of course Windows phone users can always access the relevant Full (Computer type) standard web sites for Banking etc - but these are often very inconvenient to use on phones with no mouse and small screens compared with sites designed specifically for Mobile phone usage.

Cheers

I ran the update advisor on my Icon and it now says it is eligible for an upgrade to Windows 10. But it says that MS is working with my mobile operator (Verizon) and I will get a notification when it is ready. Took a year to get the 8.1 update.

Install the Insider app,

Join the fast ring for the latest Redstone branch or release preview for the latest production build, and get it that way. So far that is the only way for anyone with a Verizon or AT&T branded phone to get W10M.
