Hey folks,

We are starting to rollout a new firmware update today for Lumia 950/950 XL: 01078.00053.16236.35xxx. Key improvements in this release include:

  • Wi-Fi connectivity improvements, including fixes for Wi-Fi connection dropping randomly and Wi-Fi scan occasionally not returning any results.
  • Support for double tap to wake enabled.
  • Bluetooth connectivity improvements.
  • Stability and reliability improvements.
  • Camera improvements, including improved image and video quality, improved Auto-focus and fix for a problem that was causing slow motion capture to skip frames for some users.
  • Cellular connectivity improvements, including fix for a problem that caused occasional network loss for some users.
  • Audio quality improvements, including fix for a problem that caused voice call audio to get scrambled for some users.

The availability of the update may depend on your phone model, region or network service provider. Starting today, the update should become available for the first batch of phones and the remaining ones are expected to receive the update gradually.

Windows 10 is updating continuously, so make sure you follow all the update notifications that appear on your phone. To check for updates, you can also tap Settings > Update & security > Phone update > Check for updates. For more detailed update instructions and troubleshooting, see.

    Don't feel bad, the same thing happened to me. I looked and our current firmware update from AT&T was from February, MS dropped 16238 in March, and now this one. 10 days my keester. We're months behind if MS dropped 16025 in February and we're just now getting it.

    FWIW, I got in touch with one of our AT&T mobililty account managers. He put a call into engineering to see what might be up.

    I do have the ability to share my WiFi. I noticed someone else mentioned this was an issue.

    My only concern is that this web forum is incredibly unresponsive on the 950xl edge browser.

    here's my phone tethering my wife's Kindle.

    Hey man,

    You showed the world your password. I realize that you will change it, but next time you might want to use paint and cover up your personal info before posting pictures.

    Haha, no worries, that's one of my throwaway passwords. I used it because it is easy to type for peeps.

    I'm not worried about the l33t h4xx0rs trying to break into my Wi-Fi hotspot.

    Also, there's no app like GIMP on Windows Mobile I'm aware of which allows blurring of text.
