Finally dropped for the AT&T Lumia 920.

Sure changed a lot.

Haven't had too much time to play with the changes yet.

Anyone know how the hell to change the charging sound?

No way to turn it off unless you mute the phone. There are some old forums with users asking the same question. Mine makes the noise, but I never noticed it as a problem.

I love 8.1 on mine, more columns for start screen tiles, better battery, smoother, FM Radio, grouping of apps, transparent live tiles, etc...

Not trying to turn it off. I want to change the sound. It used to make a different sound.

Now it makes an annoying BLOOP sound. Don't like it.

Checked what was allowed to run in the background and it was pretty much everything. Check that if you care about that sort of thing.


I haven't figured out the division of sounds yet.

How long does it take to get used to swipe type texting?

Don't know. I see people saying they love it but I'm not a fan yet. Still typing like a dinosaur.

It added all kind of backgrounds that were showing up in my live photo tile. Took a bit to figure out how to make that stop.

I love the new ability to make your tiles clear over a background. Just wish you could do it for ALL tiles.

Wish you could force a tile to the color or transparency you want.

Hate that UGLY pink Nokia icon. In fact, all of the Nokia icons seem to have their own color instead of using the chosen theme or transparency.

For the hearing challenged folks, the volume no longer automatically goes from 1 - 30. The default is 1-10.

However, if you push the volume button then tap the notification, you get the option for 1-30.

I'm near deaf so the 1-10 had me freaked out.
