After all the trouble it took to get this build installed, it has turned out to be the most problematic one so far. There is a long list of issues that this build has introduced. It is so bad, that for the first time I am thinking of rolling back to build 10074. I really don't understand how a...

The Enterprise Mobility Tip worked just fine for me. 10122 finally up & running. -> http://blogs.technet.com/b/ems/archive/2015/05/21/installer-stuck-at-18-when-upgrading-from-windows-10-10074-to-10112.aspx

Freezes at 18% (62%) Tried twice. Once before and once after doing 'disk cleanup'. No luck. Stuck with '0xC1900101-0x20007'. Seriously Microsoft, how does this even slip out the door?

The original charger that came with the Surface Pro 3 had a clip on it. But in spite of my using the clip, the cable ended up getting frayed at the point where it is joined to the magnetic connector. Most certainly a design flaw. Anyhow, it never occurred to me to call Microsoft, since I thought...

Why not just download the ISO? x64 -> http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=522144 x86 -> http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=522145

I started the download for the new Intel Video driverand then something happened and the screen went blank. I had to do a hard reset (Vol+Power) to restart and on restarting, Windows Update does not show any driver download available anymore. The installed driver shows as 10.18.15.4098 Strangely...

I checked Windows Update and it showed a new driver. I started the download and then something happened and the screen went blank. I had to do a hard reset (Vol+Power) to restart and on restarting Windows Update does not show any driver download available. The installed driver shows as...

I used to reboot each time the WiFi and the Bluetooth mouse (Surface Edition) would stop working after waking from sleep. But now I always 'scan for new hardware' in the Device Manager and it works perfectly each time. It surely is better than having to shut down all my work and reboot the SP3...

'Battery Bar' reports that the battery on my SP3 is at 0% of 42,689 mWh and the Full runtime is 4:36 hrs. I have never gotten more than 4:30 of continuous usage (browsing using Firefox), with the brightness set at 40% I wonder why I am getting such poor battery time compared to the 6-7 hrs being...

Yes. You simply add additional gMail accounts like you do the first gMail account. I personally have four gMail accounts configured in the default Windows 8.1 Mail app.

I too couldn't find this option. It would be nice to get a solution for the low volume level on the SP3. Don't get me wrong, it's not entirely unusable. But it most certainly won't cut it in an even slightly noisy surrounding.

I too am facing the problem of having to restart the SP3 to get the wifi connection and also the bluetooth mouse, because seemingly both wifi and bluetooth connections disappear upon waking up from sleep.

The title still seems misleading and kinda suggests that there is a problem with the first batch of SP3s

I am having the same issue with the sound not switching automatically when plugging in the headphones. Sorry to say this is obviously a bug that Microsoft needs to fix. Any workaround, is just that, a workaround that is.

How and where from?

YES, it does wrap around. Also, the keyboard does automatically switch off when wrapped around. Alternately, and what is my preferred way of using the SP3 in tablet mode, is to unattach the keyboard and reattach it in reverse. This way the keys are also not exposed and they stay protected.

Thanks for the reply. I had actually guessed as much.

Thanks.

So has anyone had any luck in getting Microsoft to refund their money against the 'bundle' offer?

I installed Bluestacks and seemingly it worked fine. But only for a day. Now it wants me to pay $24/yr to further use it. Are they kidding me. I could understand a one time payment. But paying perpetually is absolutely ridiculous. I wonder how many people actually are paying the $24/yr. Worse...
