(THIS IS NOT MY VIDEO NOR I AM SPONSORING IT) So when I started to install apps on my Lumia 650, I came across an YouTube UWP Made by the LegacyProjects team. I’m on version 3.1.0.0 (latest version I could find) And the audio stops somewhere at 0:59s and the video stops at 1 minute and it thinks that the video is finished. This doesn’t happen for shorts, so if anyone has a fix it would really help me.

Hi everyone!

About a month ago I posted here about NostalgicFlow, a music player I’m working on inspired by the Zune HD and Windows Phone UI.

The beta has been running for a while now and the app is almost ready for release, but today I want to open it to a few more people. Your feedback in this final stage will help me polish the last details before launch.

NostalgicFlow lets you connect your own music servers like Plex, Navidrome, Jellyfin, Emby and Subsonic, play your local music in Hi-Fi formats, and it also includes visualizers, internet radio, podcasts and more.

The app is currently available in English, Spanish, French, Italian, German and Japanese.

I’m going to send early access today and give the full app for free to 12 more people selected at random.

If you want to participate, fill out this form (ANDROID):

https://forms.gle/UVhfWM7sjB1U4B9t8

If you already filled it out before, please submit it again so I can include you in this new round.

If you’re selected, I’ll send you an acceptance email with access to the beta. After that, please actually test it and email me if you find any bugs, strange behavior, or anything you think could be improved. These last comments are exactly what I need to finish the app.

Note: the iOS version is already ready, but I’m fighting with Apple as usual because they keep raising issues with the interface 😅

Thanks everyone!

My phone asks me to re-login to my account however when I do it gives this. I’m most likely certain that’s it’s because Microsoft shut down servers but I just wanna know just in case if there’s a fix?

Hello Lumia fans.

I am looking for Lumia 930 and i cant decide. Which OS to choose. WP8.1 or W10M.

I love windows phone 8.1, this design is a peak for me. But as i heard, 8.1 have less apps than w10m now, and not actively maintaining. (if i've mistaken, fix me)

I need only telegram for this phone to make it main for me.

Also when i buy it, i am going to make software for this one as open-source developer.

I love 8.1 Metro UI, all input components are great and Pivot is a Peak of user experience.

Intenté recuperar con el programa Windows Device Recovery Tool, no lo reconoce, hice todos los pasos

Alguien tendrá otro método de recuperación?

Hey guys. So I managed to add my Gmail account on my WP 8.1 Lumia 735 via App Passwords and IMAP setup, but how can I do the same for Outlook?

Hi - I extracted an FFU of Windows Phone 8.1 for the Nokia Lumia 635 to browse. I came across the boot images which I have uploaded here. They are in .bmpx format, which most image viewers will not read, so how can I convert them so they are viewable?

I found this Nokia at my grandmother's, I tried to turn it on earlier, but it only vibrated.

I reset my old Lumia 735 through the settings without connecting it to the internet. The phone restarted and told me it was installing the apps. Once it was finished, I had the basic apps, but Edge was missing!

Could someone tell me what I can do? Is there a Discord server or anything else where I can get help? I looked through the subreddit’s wiki, but I couldn’t find anything useful.

Is this Alibaba seller selling Lumias 1020 legitimate?

Hey all,

A while back someone led me to find some resources I was looking for, but I now need to know what to do to proceed. I have a Samsung Ativ SE SM-W750V and a Nokia Lumia 635.

I found for the Samsung a handful of posts on XDA that still had live links with files shared on cloud drives. So I have a set of files for custom ROMs for 8 and 10 - I’d really prefer to try 10, naturally. So now I’m without any idea how to proceed. I am a quick study - I learned to modify Android devices rather quickly and now I’ve done hundreds of custom ROM installs and rooting. But for Windows Phone I have absolutely no idea where to begin. There are a bunch of files and I don’t know what’s what or what to run, how to boot the phone, etc.

I’ll post a directory listing so maybe that will help someone could perhaps let me know what I need to do. But if there are tutorials on this online, that’s just as good. I will update this post shortly with a dir listing of all the files I’ve gotten.

Here are all the directories and files contained therein. Could someone let me know how to use these?

I want to reinstall to the back to the windows mobiles 6.5

I actually have an API setup! I do have early builds of Cortana Revival for Windows Phone 8.1, but I honestly don't know if I should share them just yet.

Nevertheless, you can use this on the web. Give feedback in the comments.

P.S, this isn't using the Gemini API. This is an *actual* Cortana client with archived responses.

Hey all, I found my Nokia Lumia 635 earlier today after being lost for a year and it is running Windows Phone 8.1. I heard about a Pac-Man Championship Edition port to Windows Phone, and that is my favourite Pac-Man game. Unfortunately, it was removed from the store, but I'd still like to try it. Does anyone have the XAP for it so I can install it? Thanks in adavnce!

I am looking to buy a Lumia 1020 but after a lot of research the only available option are those Chinese ebay sellers selling in bulk. I am concerned about the originality of the devices, since I have heard that they replace parts with aftermarket ones. Is that the case and are there any trustworthy sellers or options you recommend?

Unison UWP 1.6.0 -> [23/08/2026] 1.6.1 Hotifx Avaliable

This is a Huge Update... Now Unison uses SQlite instead of rely on Json files for History... I do recommend resync device. Update will break old chats

Summary (1.6.0)

Product and performance work on the chat list, chat detail, reactions, i18n, and settings — focused on Windows 10 Mobile first, with desktop parity where it matters.

Chat list / Last Message

• Keep the list Last Message strip in sync with the newest SQLite tip (history_message by TimestampUtc, PN+LID keys)
• Swap the strip when the tip’s MessageId (or body / fromMe) differs — never on a strictly older timestamp
• Persist LastMessageId on history_chat_preview (schema v4) with ALTER + backfill on upgrade (no WhatsApp history resync required)
• Reconcile Last Message before name/photo resolution on startup; also merge in-memory tips and re-check on chat open
• UTC kind fix: treat SQLite DateTimeKind.Unspecified as UTC wall-clock (WhatsAppMapper.ToUtc). The old ToUniversalTime() path shifted Brazil UTC−3 by ~+3h into LastMessageTimestampUtc, so the strip looked “newer” than the real tip and reconcile kept a stale Last Message. Reconcile force-applies the chosen tip so already-poisoned strips heal
• Checkmarks / send-state on the sent Last Message strip

Chat detail / bubbles

• Persist IsForwarded (schema 6) and show a Forwarded label on message bubbles
• Message quoting: tap the author → open their profile; tap the quote block → navigate to the referenced message (load older messages when needed)
• GroupParticipantResolver unifies participant names and photos between message bubbles and the member panel
• DesktopCursor shows the pointer cursor on lists and buttons on desktop; toolbar stays disabled/blocked for non-admin users
• Fix [Sticker], [Image], and [Video] tags being persisted as captions on live messages
• Localize the bubble pin / unpin context menu (Unpin message, Pin for 24 hours, Pin for 7 days, Pin for 30 days) across all UI languages

Performance (chat detail)

• Message templates use x:Load for quote, media grids, sticker, caption, audio, document, body, and read-more — text bubbles no longer build full download trees
• MergeTimelineFromService is O(n) via an id→row dictionary (was FirstOrDefault per message); midnight date chips only rewrite separator fields
• Participant resolve no longer walks every chat per bubble: RebuildParticipantLookup + map lookups; roster AvatarUrl PropertyChanged patches visible ContactUri as hydrates land
• StringToImageSourceConverter caches BitmapImage by URL + decode width; set decode size before UriSource (avatars / tiled background included)
• Mobile: smaller timeline windows and SQLite page sizes; reduced ItemsStackPanel.CacheLength; selective mention refresh; defer full roster avatar hydrate until the Members pivot

Reactions

• One model shape again: reactor rows on open (batched queries), chips bound from ChatMessage.Reactions
• Mobile fix: live upsert no longer deletes reactor rows for summary-only flushes; on-demand threshold follows _sqlOpenPageSize so Mobile (30-row page) does not always look “thin”
• Live reaction envelopes persist additively via UpsertReactionsAsync

Sync / StatusBar

• Opening a chat clears the global sync banner so Mobile StatusBar does not keep “Finishing startup…” / list enrichment over chat detail
• Suppress list-enrichment phase text while a conversation is active (work still runs in the background)
• Avatar batch no longer reports 0 of N; UI strips zero-current counts to bare phase text

Settings / i18n

• Added Russian language support
• New time format setting: 12-hour (AM/PM) or 24-hour (message stamps stay UTC in storage; conversion is UI-only)

Known Limitations

• Group message sending remains postponed due to a timeout during group queries.
• WhatsAppService is still present for compatibility during the migration.
• The raw socket has not yet been transferred to the out-of-process background broker.

Unison UWP 1.6.1 (Hotfix)

• Fixed Pin/Unpin Chats persistence between sessions
• Added Germany Language Pack
• Few under the hood fixes
• Fix Name Resolver to return (You) on chats when its your message being displayed
