Don't like PhotoGrid but thanks for the heads up Tranced. Promised myself would keep my 1520 nice and simple with just apps that were really good and useful. Unfortunitely PhotoGrid aint one of them.

All sorted out. I'm using Fotor to give my photos Rounded Edges. InstaSize to take that photo and put it on a white background and 6Tag to post it to Instagram. That wasnt so bad. Now I can start Instagram posting again.
Check out and follow me on Instagram calvin_pearce
Can't wait to get snapping with the 1520.
Thanks Tranced. In the end you were more helpful than you think

It's crazy that 6tag an unofficial Instagram app let's you do video and direct messaging plus no crop. Instagram Beta doesn't

Does this happen to you guys as well.When you plug in charger and press power button to turn screen off the clock appears on a dimly lit black screen and stays on for as long as its charging.Dont fancy that.Is it possible to switch the screen off while charging.
6tag is a very good app.Thanks Bono.Im sure Instagram will improve as it matures.

I think you will be pleasently surprised- takes much better photos than Note 2 (especially in low light). Please post some photos here as well - we would love to see more of South Africa

@Hobbs and use 5mp over sampling mode it gives best images. The OIS on the 1520 is one of the best I've seen it's so stable once the shutter button is half pressed

Not so off topic, but I'm also using the 5MP res in my phone. They come out very good. I will try with a different res.
@hobbs: and you're welcome

Played with a 1520 today at a Vodashop, very nice, must say its a huge phone BUT not so intimidating thanks to it being so slim and light, the Display is huge and simply stunning, highly detailed and colors pop out nicely even when comparing to my S4 with its screen color tone set to Dynamic.
Didn't get to check WP version and all that as I was soon distracted by a couple who decided to have a fight in the store  no idea why people are so angry these days.
Anyway, lovely phone the 1520, it's also built like a tank and WP is super fast and fluid, was very impressed, WP is becoming more and more of a capable OS year by year.
I wish the 930 had a larger battery, but I'm happy to wait and see what happens at IFA, maybe we'll see a 1520 successor to, could sway me away from a Note 4 if that doesn't live up to my expectations.

Obviously 1520 also has RAW support so you can have fun with that as well- it is probably to best way to get maximum quality from the camera |

I miss my 1520 but I was given the Hong Kong variant & when I updated to 8.1 early there was too many bugs. But in near future the 930 will be the one for me or whatever is possibly coming next. @Hobbs try a 4 second exposure
