Hello,
I know many will think I am crazy, but I have decided to get a Microsoft (Nokia) Lumia 950 or 950 XL. I'm leaning more towards the XL. I figure I have a Windows PC, Windows Laptop, Microsoft Xbox One S, may as we'll have a Windows Phone too. I'm not a power user by any means and the few apps I actually use are all available on Windows Phone.
I have noticed that there are quite a few different model numbers for them. I'm not interested in spending retail on the device directly from Microsoft. I see various model numbers can be had for under $300 on Amazon. That said, the AT&T version of the 950 is just under $300 directly from Microsoft so if I go 950 I guess I wouldn't be opposed to that. I intend to use it with AT&T anyways.
Model Numbers I am seeing on Amazon:
RM-1085 Single Sim
RM-1116 Dual Sim
RM-1104 (950)
Any recommendations between 950 vs 950 XL would be great too.

I have to admit, even though I have been an HTC buyer (HTC Typhoon, HD2, now Radar).
I like what Nokia did with the 900 and now the 920 ( my next must have ).
In any case I want to get a Windows RT device and so far MS Surface stands as first pick, because if Nokia was going to launch they would have by now (but the rumors will not stop).
So if Nokia launched a Tablet that took design of the Lumia would you buy?

I voted 'not sure' because I'd very much need to see the price and specs before deciding. I'm looking for a Win8 Pro convertible to replace my laptop and iPad. I certainly LOVE my 900, and would like to get the 920, so if it was Nokia that put out the tablet I wanted I'd scoop it up just from my experience with them so far.
I have read a lot of topics about the ROMs tor the Lumia 950 (the normal version and not the XL). Myself i have got a Lumia 950 Single SIM with the product code 059X4X7. I can not find any information about his product code anywhere on the web. I have bought the phone in the Netherlands so maybe these phones in the Netherlands are so new that nobody has one yet so little information is available. With Windows Device Recovery Tool (WDRT) i have confirmed the product code using fiddler when i try to check my version with it. I have no real problems with the phone so using the WDRT it hould be getting the new software and i am convinced that that will work. The reason why i am lookin for this information is because i am investigating if i can change / rebuild my single SIM in a dual version. First i want to upgrade the motherboard of the phone with an extra SIM holder slot for the second SIM and then flash it with the appropiate ROM ffu for the dual sim version. But i do not know the correct product code for the 950 Dual SIM. Does any body know this product code ? And maybe somebody has some more information about the idear itself ? Would apreciate it.
I have created a new thread because i think more people are interested in this (i think)!

The 950 and also the 950 XL have different motherboards for the dual sim versions not to mention the cases are different.

What i can see on all photos and videos the motherboards are the same. The SM version motherboard has en empty space for the 2th sim. So it can be soldered. The case is the same and just different for the cap for the 2th sim place. So i still think it is possible when after the soldering of the second sim the software is changed to the right version. Disagree?
Does anybody have some new information about upgrading a Lumia 950 single SIM into a dual sim version ? The motherboards look exactly the same, the second sim placeholder is present there so a new sim holder can be soldered onto it. I have tried it but it is all so tiny and small and my tools are not appropriate, so i had no luck / success. Also not found a repair shop who dared to do the soldering. Maybe somebody succeeded and has new ways of doing.
A slightly older relative of mine brought me a factory sealed Lumia 950 from eBay for Christmas (Happy Christmas everyone!). It's the phone I asked for, which is great, unfortunately, it's locked to the o2 network.
I'm pretty sure I can purchase an o2 PAYG SIM card and get the network to unlock it for a fee (£15 from my understanding), but I was wondering if there's a better / faster / cheaper way that anyone knows of?
(Note: it was a present, so returning it isn't an option, especially since I've already opened it, so the "factory sealedness" of it is now compromised).
Try sim-unlock.net - i dunno how much will it cost u, but u have an option.
Hello everyone,
