Anyone here.
Is there any dev for this device ?
Lumia 800 was a great wp smartphone. But it just can go to 7.8 version that was said.
So anyone of you still use this phone and why ?

I used till this january.

It was a great phone and it would still be if they didn't abandoned/stop updating their cool features.

As there weren't any new apps released or updates to the apps already in the market, I moved to android.

Microsoft forgot why they are nº 1 in PCs and why android is nº 1 in Smarthphones.
It's because you have continuity, its the ability to the different OS's being able to run older and new applications.

I still use it, and I'm still in Love with it ever since day one. Yes it's a sad fact that there's zero support for it now, however, there are some features in it that are still Killing it and in my opinion a thousand times better than any newer phone on any OS,, without further ado these features are:
1- The People integration for Facebook which still works great.
2- The Music Hub with all its in & outs especially the podcasts.
3- The Office & OneNote hub, syncs all my documents from PC just as it should, and of course I can view/edit it on the go.
4- and last but not least the Brilliant "Email integration", I have all my Emails synced and it works Amazingly.

If I could have some people on my Android4lumia team interested, I could get Android running on this guy. I had LK bootloader, or basically fastboot commands

I loved the phone when I bought it in 2012, but for some reason M$oft decided that the best approach to sell their phones was to introduce new phones and abandoning the previous ones!
The only reason Apple is so successful even with their crappy phones is because the old users are not left out. Sure, Apple tries things to force users to upgrade, but still doesn't abandon the ones that don't.
I lost 30K INR within 8 months of buying the phone, when it was (s)crapped. That is no way to do business.

Still, I gave the phone to my Father and he kept using it till 2016 when it dropped from his hand and achieved martyrdom :)

I just started using my old Lumia 800 again. Mainly for listening to podcasts and music on Deezer app, which surprisingly still works !
Zune app is waaaaaaay better than any audio app on android, imo.
Reading on Kindle app is fine too, although lacking all the modern features.

So many good apps on that phone, a shame the app store is not supported anymore!

Too bad the battery is near dead.

I was too optimistic. Deezer refuses to launch now. Goes back to home screen mid-launch.
Anyone knows how to fix it?
