Live Lock Screen beta out now: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store ... c2a4a15de3

VLC beta coming in August: http://www.wpcentral.com/vlc-making-its ... -very-soon

Tried out the Live Lock Screen app earlier. It made opening my phone a horrible laggy experience. Uninstalled two minutes later.

Seems to be working nicely on my 1020.

Got a shot of a Lumia 520 just now while my iPhone 5 gets fixed (I did have a HTC Desire Z but that was awful in 2014) and I'm really impressed with it. I've always been a big fan of the Windows Phone UI and the Twitter and Facebook integration. Seriously considering just keeping this for now and selling my iPhone 5 before the price drops since I'm planning on getting an iPhone 6.

Are there any particular handy apps people recommend? Already got the usual (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp).

How the strawberry float do I set up Gmail on this? Keeps saying my password is wrong when it's not.

Do you use 2 step verification on gmail? I use that on outlook so that means when i set the phone up i have to go onto outlook and generate a special password rather then my usual one. Might be the same on gmail im guessing

I used to use that but turned it off ages ago. Turned it on again and generated an app-specific password and that worked.

yep came out a few hours ago...cortana is very odd and doesn't have anywhere near the same tricks as the american one!

PostRe: The Windows Phone Thread by **Garth** » Mon Aug 04, 2014 6:10 pm

Any option to switch to the proper Cortana?

PostRe: The Windows Phone Thread by **Errkal** » Mon Aug 04, 2014 6:16 pm

from what i can see no. Basically all the cool questions and funny jokes jen taylor said arent present so tbh its a lot like google now at the mo. suppose its just come out im hoping MS put some work into it and dont have the american one as amazing and this left as basic as it is

PostRe: The Windows Phone Thread by **Garth** » Mon Aug 04, 2014 6:46 pm

Better give us the option to choose the real Cortana in the future

Just got it now. Yay Cortana is finally here.
