I don't know if 920 covers can be removed, but they most certainly had a lot of 920 back protectors which you could slap on top of the phone's back side.

Cc-1043 is addon cover not original back. I was looking for cyan one. I bought black one from Nokia center ISB.

Good news bro, i found a shop that has the exchange able covers .. there's a nokia care shop in main zamzama, right next to the Home Shopping Network outlet. They have a ton of Lumia related shit there that I haven't seen anywhere in karachi, branded pouches, official covers and back covers for all the lumia models that allow the back cover to be changed.

I bought one red and one cyan, replaced the default with cyan, it looks soooooooooo slick !!

the only downside is that each cover is 850/-rs a pop, a bit steep imo but whatever.

took this just now.

Congratulations man.
I am still looking for one here in Peshawar but so far couldn't find any, i say 850rs is a reasonable price if the quality is good.
I might sell my phone, if i decide to keep it; then i'd definitely want a cover for mine.

if there are any nokia care centers in Peshawar, do check those out first.

I'm rocking the Red today, my friend whom inspired me to buy the Lumia has a 920 in red, which is glossy. my cover is matte by comparison.

everyone agrees matt > glossy (sm1)

My HTC Radar is on its last legs, problem is I just got back from vacations so spent a lot of money there, I am gathering money where I can to buy a 625 when it lands but for now I need some help to get more life out of my phone

My problem is MASSIVE battery drain, as soon as I unplug the phone from charging, I have only got 6-10 hours MAX on battery before it dies, before it would wait until going to ~20% to randomly turning off on me, but now it does it at ANY TIME.

I just need to make this phone last a couple more weeks and another phone isn't an option at the moment, I can't migrate contacts and I really the phone as is.

I believe the charger might be the culprit so I am using my brothers Samsung S duos charger to see if it makes a difference or not, can someone PLEASE help me out?

Btw, before you guys say "buy a new battery" this thing has a non-removable battery, and I am scared of getting it fixed on counts of it getting further messed up than it already is, I know how shady these people in HC are.

I guess for free accueweather is good. I am using weather flow I bought it. If you want to buy weather flow and amazing weather HD are great.

how better is 925 compared to 920?
A lot better.

1. Much lighter
2. Much thinner.
3. Has a slightly better camera experience due to the extra lens

Having said that, it has only 16 GB storage as compared to 32 for the 920. I'd just wait and get 3rd gen lumia devices.

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
