wp-8.1Microsoft will be launching the update process for the new Windows Phone 8.1 update to all of the carriers. That means for those of us with Windows 8 phones, it won’t (hopefully) be long. As long as AT&T, Verizon and everyone else doesn’t make us wait months again after Microsoft launched this kind of news. The new Cortana will be coming with it, and I know I can’t wait (assuming it’s everything they claim it to be). Plus, the inner Halo geek in me just wants to be able to talk to Cortana.

There are some really nice updates coming though. The Nokia Icon (Verizon) already has Windows 8.1 installed on it which is really nice. I haven’t played with the phone yet since I am on another carrier but so far there has been cluster of great feedback and news in regards to it.

Here is hoping that the 8.1 update is everything it seems to be.

 

 

Windows Phone – Not Being Able To Customize All Alerts (Email, SMS, etc) With Tones

A lot of us have spoken about this with each other and there are a lot of online discussion in regards to it as well.

Why doesn’t Microsoft allow Windows Phone users to customize the ringtone for things other than calls.  Text messages, emails, and voicemail simply offer you a drop down menu of the limited built-in tones. Phones have usually always offered a complete array of custom features for ringtones and alerts, but this feature just doesn’t seem to want to find itself on Windows Phones.

YOU can actually do something to help (as well as voice your opinion for other features you with the phones had) by visiting Microsoft’s feature suggestion site where you can vote for the features you would like to see.

Visit http://windowsphone.uservoice.com/forums/101801-feature-suggestions/suggestions/2281201-custom-sounds-for-sms-mms-email-notifications-e#comments

(or http://windowsphone.uservoice.com in general to see what else there is to vote on)

Thankfully the votes have grown a lot over the last year, so hopefully Microsoft may start to pay attention soon. So cast your vote(s) and let your voice be heard!

As for Microsoft…PAY ATTENTION!!!! 🙂

New LV Mobsquad Video!: LV Mobsquad – All The Other Kids (Parody)(Censored)

The Las Vegas Mobsquad has finally released their latest official video. It’s a music video this time! Joy!!

This is a parody music video based on the song Pumped Up Kicks by Foster the People ( from this cd: http://amzn.to/upVbnG ). This parody is written, recorded, produced, directed, acted (etc) by the LV Mobsquad. It is directed towards “those punk kids” (basically it addresses the bully issue plaguing schools these days).

What’s cool is that parts of this music video were shot using a Windows Phone 7 (Mango) device. The rest with a Professional HD 1080P AVCHD Camera with professional lens, mics and accessories. They are asking if viewers can guess which scenes where shot with the WP7 phone/device? (comment on the youtube page, here, wherever).

LV Mobsquad is mainly focused on bringing the viewers comedy in their productions. This is why some shots are tongue and cheek goofy or odd. Beyond that it got a little serious, so this will be their first semi-serious production……while still keeping the “strange”.

Comments? Suggestions? Mind Blowing Hateful Complaints? Feel free to share. We love to read them and respond where needed.

If you can, try to share it with your friends. They are looking to spread their name around a little more to help justify some really big upcoming productions 😉
