    Lumia 800 - Good and Bad

    First about battery. Nokia has informed that they are testing a new version of the software and it will be released in couple of weeks.

    I have tried to install my work email for more than 10 times. For some reason every time in about the places where I'm entering receiving or sending server the display goes suddenly to Bing, Last phone calls, Setup or other place. I'm been lately very careful not to touch any other part of the phone. This happens right when I'm entering text. Can anybody help?

    On the weekend I tested my Lumia's battery. I loaded it full on Friday 9 PM and it was almost empty on Sunday 9 AM. No calls only a two times Bluetooth was on when I used heaRABet in my car. So the battery lasted about 36 hours. On Sunday I loaded the battery full again at noon (12) and it was empty on Monday 9 AM. No calls, I used the alarm clock in the morning. Battery lasted 21 hours. Not yet new programs that would use Internet connections. The battery times are quite far from the promised 335 hours.

    Sorry but my mother language is not English. As if I understand bloat meand too much filled or something like that. For me OneNote very usefull (full of use). For instance when I'm abroad I don't use my Lumia but use my computer in hotel's WLAn or in Internet cafe to see my notes.

    As an FYI, and right off-topic, but Microsoft released OneNote for Android last week, other apps to follow. Usual Microsoft bloat of course, but hopefully it'll get streamlined over time.

    I had the same problem after updating to the latest software. Battery lasted less than 12 hours with hardly any use. Was ok before the update.

    So I went back to the previous version (via Zune) and re installed the latest software and the problem went away. Might be worth trying.

    Yeah that's the latest update.. Regarding the battery better to check the "issues" thread in this section as well as the links posted there, and also you could check by a NCP to see what they could offer..

    And thanks for that app hint.. I just checked it and it's really one great app!

    I installed Notepad and it seems to be OK. I can even send it as e-mail or SMS.

    OS version is 7.10.8107.79, software version 1600.2483.8107.11501, equipment version 112.1402.2.4

    OneNote doesn't need Skydrive.. You can make notes and save them on your phone normally.. No need to sync them to the Cloud.. Even if there is an Internet connection running.. Same thing regarding tasks and appointments in the Calender..

    There is of coruse Evernote if you need something fully featured and professional..
    There are also light apps like Tiled Notes which can stick notes to live tiles on the home screen..



    What's the firmware's version you're on?
