Both phones bought at same time, from Phones4U, both being "unbranded/sim free" phones, so how is the update available for one but not the other?
This took about an hour & you must leave the phone connected while this takes place.
I was under the impression that if you turned the phone upside down it would silence the ringer ?, tried this but it did not work.
Also does anyone know how to increase the size of the contacts phone details ?
Example ...... looking at Alan's details his number is in blue but very small making it very hard to read quickly.
Thoughts ?
At first, with all my tiles on medium, they suddenly seemed huge due to the removal of the black rail on the side. I'm really liking the addition of small size tiles. If only using the large tile meant you could get extra info from the app like on windows 8 and windows phone 8.
They use a static small app icon instead of a live tile. I wonder if there's a support for small live tiles in WP7.8 or they stopped there. In WP8 People hub when minimised is static as well, but a family group I pinned to start changes pictures occasionally even if it is small. And weather app is live, too, when small. Maybe it will come to WP7.8, too.
Microsoft rolling out a secondary 7.8 update as there is know bugs with live tiles and draining battery. Just plugged mine into Zune and is updating
it is now 8860 on the o/s
Thanks.
I noticed that too. The internet load faster and the start up is a little quicker too. Also the Sky news live tv works now
Some user say it is not fixed !
He's happier with the larger tiles but the only thing that disappointed was the lack of text size function available with WP8.
