Been paying for Google drive (100GB) storage for coming up to 2 years now, and now Microsoft have at last released an Android One(Sky)Drive app that does automatic camera backup have just archived my 65GB of GDrive storage and beginning the transfer over to One(Sky)Drive. Will leave my Drive...

All of my phones are plugged in >>90% of the time (i.e. when at work it's plugged into my laptop [or surface :-)] [[which is also plugged in 90% of the time :-)]], or into my car USB charger while on the way to work, or when asleep on my bedside cabinet). No problems with my batteries. Same...

I'd certainly be interested in giving it a shot if it were released on the x86 platform. The browser is good, but I use tapatalk for multiple forums on my phones and would find the synchronisation very useful - none of the forum apps I've tried on windows so far really do it for me just yet.

Out of interest (not that I have any advice that may fix this but just to close the loop), why were you messing around with permissions and removing the trustedinstaller permissions in the first place? From what I understand, even administrator has lower rights than TI so not surprised that...

Hi Arizona, Just checked it out with my Pro 2, fits nicely and seems to take the weight (might be a little bouncy if you hit the screen a lot, but seems perfectly stable in a variety of positions. Fully extended it will sag, but with some bend in the arm is quite stable). Haven't tried the...

Like others, also been using uSD cards quite happily for a long time without issues, not sure where you get your information from. True, 3-MLC NAND technology does have lower reliability than previous iterations (full size SD cards now likely use exactly the same technology as USD, makes...

I used to use this mount in bed with my iPad and other tablets, but haven't used it for a while and this thread has prompted me to dig it out and try with my surface - here's a nicely obscured photo: When I get back from my holiday I'll see if it fits the surface...

When I did my warranty replacement (which went very well, and only took 2 days to arrive), the hold they put on for my SP2 that cost £1439.00 GBP (about $2460 USD, yes we're ripped off here in the UK!) was only for about £650.00 or thereabouts, nowhere near the retail price. I believe I god a...

Not sure what to enter - I 'prefer' to go naked, but having spent £1500 on a device that's so easily scratched I feel I have to protect it with something :-(

The SD Card Association (who define the SD Card Specifications) mandate the use of exFAT for cards larger than 32GBytes. To be compliant, card manufacturers must ship according to these file system format specifications (and compliant host devices must adhere to the formatting guidelines) so...

No, not unless your device is unusable :-) Seriously though, haven't noticed any ill effects myself.

I've used AirDroid occasionally: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid

Thanks al2fast, ordered one today from Amazon UK. Seems to be shipping from the US, I'm sure it will be worth the wait...

Well I did try to warn you a month ago in post 12 Anyway, sorry to hear your bad luck. I got lucky, pretty sure I got a refurb as it had a tiny scratch on the back but I think it's overall better than my original. Shame I didn't get the free vouchers like others have been getting, although...

I had the stickerboy jet black aluminium on mine (Stickerboy ? Slate Jet Black Brushed Aluminum - Microsoft Surface Pro Skins), just had to take it off as I'm shipping back my old device. Using a hairdryer to soften the glue it came off quite easily (was sort of hoping I might be able to...

I remember when PCs had a turbo button on the front. Oh the memories.

They fixed that in the newest version, no problems with mine.

You probably want to be a little less blunt in your first point then. For example, not applying security updates could soon render your perfectly working device unusable, or worse, when a gaping security hole isn't updated due to your blanket advice. Maybe you want to say: 1. Keep automatic...

This has been discussed many times, I believe the consensus being that supply of the 4200U is limited (maybe discontinued?) and the 4300U is available from Intel with the same base functionality at the same cost. No conspiracy here, just simple supply and demand.

Thanks for the input everybody, sounds like there' no consistent way of doing things here so will live with how things are. Cheers!
