Windows 10 update pushed back for some Windows phones

Microsoft’s Windows 10 Anniversary Update started rolling out for Windows Phones a few weeks ago, but not all devices received it OTA. The HP Elite X3 for one hasn’t received the Update yet, and now we’ve just been notified that the Vaio Phone Biz has had its update pushed back as well.

Citing issues with Continuum, Vaio confirms on its official website that the Windows 10 Mobile Anniversary Update has been postponed due to Continuum not working with displays of “specific resolutions”.

Continuum for Phones is one of the major features of Microsoft’s Windows 10 Mobile operating system and one of the selling points of the business-focused devices pushed by OEMs.

Nokia to make a comeback?

The Finnish company Nokia never really went away, we just stopped caring about the colorful Windows Phones being turned out under Microsoft's ownership, especially when they repeatedly proved less capable and exciting than similar Android and iOS offerings.

The Nokia name is coming back thanks to a new license agreement that allows Finnish company HMD to sell phones using the name over the next ten years. The product will be manufactured by FIH, a subsidiary of FoxConn.

The deal doesn't involve Nokia Technologies (the current form of the phone brand) buying any equity in HMD, instead it will receive royalty payments in exchange for its name and and cellular standard patent licenses. HMD's Nokia-labeled products will, however, be scrutinized to make sure they're up to scratch with what's expected of the brand.

According to HMD's CEO in-waiting, Arto Nummela, the venture is built around Nokia's instantly recognizable name.

Rather than running with Windows Phone like recent offerings, the new devices will be built around the Android platform.
