Upgrade to Windows 10 fails - Venue Pro General

I have tried everything I can think of. I updated drivers and BIOS and keep getting this:
Error

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}

I think it has to do with 2 drivers. They have yellow triangles, will work more on it later.

Uninstalled the drivers rebooted and installed Windows 10. Worked perfect.

Did you mean that it could run WP8 flawlessly?

It had no problem with W8. But the person who bought it, installed a new storage chip and it works fine I am told.

Interesting! MS announced that it's impossible for those old WP7.8 devices update to WP8. So may I know how to install WP8 on it? Any post I can refer to?

And it's true that the storage can be upgraded.

My Dell Venue Pro II came with W8. I tried to upgrade it to W10 and it crashed and I couldn't even restore it from a USB drive. So I sold it, the buyer said he knew it needed a new storage module and ordered it. It was the 128GB model with a Sprint modem (But I never had Sprint so I never used that)

Amazing and lucky guys... but we still don't have a clue how came it runs WP8...

That is how Dell shipped it to me. They replaced and older device that was still under warranty but the no longer stocked. So they shipped me this to replace it. But the warranty expired a couple months later and I never renewed it.

Also wireless Mouse/KB
and the best part for me is I can Connect my USB speakers to it.
But in case of speakers Battery must be charged well, as speakers are high powered device.
But it runs as long as battery is not down to like 30-40 %.
I just picked up a couple. They were .69/each with free shipping.

Nope. On the contrary, it runs much faster than windows 7, especially on old hardware and the Bulldozer cpus.
I'm sat patiently awaiting Mr. Postman to hopefully pop my copy in the letter box today as Amazon have moved the estimated delivery of tomorrow forward to today after they dispatched it.

question
I ve just bought 29eur upgrade from win7 on my netbook LENOVO S10-3T - which is touch based - i have great experience with consumer previews etc, it is not CPU hog like wrote someone before ATOM N550, 2GB RAM and SSD it is the greatest experience i ever had on desktop OS even on such poor CPU. Anyway, SSD brought to life even the WIN7 with some customization.
I have question. I have only 1024x600, but i was able to enable downscalling to cheat the metro UI to bring it to work, i use a lot my netbook on 22" screen so there it will work, but as my fresh bought copy did not finished downloading and install,
i would like to ask you if the downscalling registry hack still works on official release. I will be ready to finish fresh installation in about hour so i will ook after it but when someone has already an advice....
Thanks
My Windows 8 Pro Upgrade has arrived so here goes othing, & Hopefully will be back up and running on Windows 8 Pro.

Just installed Windows 8 Pro after buying it for $14.99 (easy to get the promo code). I'm sure it will take some getting use to, but for the price it was tough to pass up.
After running Windows update I'm now faced with a black screen & mouse pointer, is there anyway to get to safe mode in Windows 8?

I've tried several times, can get as far as logging in then nothing. I'm doing a refresh to she if that helps. I think it might be down to the activator that I had to use for the so called OEM copy of Windows 7 that I bought off of eBay that turned out to be a cloned DVD. If all else fails it's a fresh install of 7 no crack, drivers Win 8.
Can Windows 8 upgrade use the Win 7 DVD to upgrade or does it have to be installed?

So I never tried Chat On before and figured I'd download it just to try. What a mistake!!! After it being on my phone a day I had noticed it was responsible for like 47% of my battery life that day and it was closed!!! I didn't even use it once! So of course I deleted it once I saw this. So I wake up this morning, take my phone off the charger, had 100% battery, and then 3 hrs later my battery is almost dead!!!! I go to settings,battery and what do ya know com.sec.chaton has taken 87% of my battery!!!! ChatOn isn't even installed on my phone anymore!!! I am not rooted. How can I resolve this?? Anyone? You'll notice in the pic my option to force stop or report are grayed out ad well. I've tried rebooting and it didn't help.

As much as I hate saying this but you might have to factory reset the phone since it didn't do this before.

You can try going into the apps again and see if you can disable the com file sense you know what it is named. I had the same kind of problem with Google + on my last phone.

Noooo!!! Lol. Dammit man I was thinking that exact thing but hoping someone didn't agree lol. What a bummer. I do absolutely love this phone, but it's definitely in need of a software update, it's got some small bugs. Which is a little expected I suppose with new hardware/software but still frustrating a bit.

I tried looking for it apps manager and couldn't even find it. I even have an app installed that gives u the hidden features in 4.3 back to see and adjust some of the permissions on your apps but I can't find it in there either. If it's on the phone I can't find where it's hiding lol.
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
I think I'm just gonna go through with it and factory reset it. It's probably good for it anyway at least once. And most everything is backed up either on the cloud, through an account, or on sd card, just a pain putting apps back and signing back into everything is all. Nah this stinks! Dammit! Lol. I'll report back after the reset and let ya know how it goes.

Try a different ROM. Let's when what happen then.
Bad luck! The navigation buttons at the bottom of twrp doesn't work too )':
I don't understand how this happened. There was no damage to the phone. It was completely safe.
Then try to install stock ROM.

Or. Use cwm recovery .navigate using physical button. And try another custom ROM.
It happend once in my s2 skyrocket. Switching it to another ROM helped.

You can try several software things but I am 100% sure its hardware.
Your digitizer is broken and for N4 it comes with your screen. You have to replace whole things.
Offical LG comes at around 100 USD
Guys, good news! The area which was not responding to the touch started working on its own, when I took phone out of my pocket this evening!!

Yea, you seem to be right. Because I kept my n4 with too much care for 2 years if I take out the bumper and screen protectors, it looks exactly like new. It definitely is lg's mistake!
I guess I'll better start getting used to pie controls now ):
Dear folks, I do face the same issue. No cracked screen but some areas wont work. Is it possible to calibrate the screen via adb?
Can anyone help out with commands or scripts to maybe revive my n4?
Kind regards Soldiaz
