Nokia Lumia 920 wifi not working

Hi
My brand new Nokia Lumia 920 cannot connect to my wifi.
It keeps saying that I type the wrong password, which i do not.
All other devices in my house connect just fine.
I have tried switching channel on my router and change from WPA PSK to WEP but nothing helps.
Any suggestions?

I'll link to another discussion that had a resolution that worked for me. This is the only place I saw a resolution for the problem.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphone/forum/wp8-wpnetwork/lumia-920-refuses-to-connect-to-wifi...
Basically, I changed my router settings from mixed 802.11 b/g to 802.11 g only. Now it connects, no problem.
Good luck.

Nokia lumia 920 camera not working

I have tried resetting it in settings and restarting phone but my camera app doesn't work regardless how I try to utilize it, Facebook or directly from menu. The screen is just totally black.
help appreciated, will I have to take this back?

Hi cgaskin,
Welcome to the forum!
It might be that the problem is with the hardware of the phone already since reset didn't fix it. If your phone is still in the replacement period then you should contact your retailer to get a replacement. However, if your retailer can't help you, it is best to send it to Nokia Care Point.

Lumia 920: OneDrive not working after WP8.1 update

After 8.1 update to Lumia 920 OneDrive stopped working totally. In original WP8.0 SkyDrive worked as should.
- In start menu OneDrive icon/tile shows as "greyed out" and does not respond to anything. The only thing one can do is move or unpin the icon/tile.
- In application menu the only option for OneDrive is "pin to start". There is no "rate and review", "share" or "uninstall" available. Therefore cannot uninstall and re-install
- If looking from Store, it does not allow to (re-)install because it thinks that it is already installed!
I can access OneDrive from all my other devices.
I know that there are several people who have updated their 920 succesfully but that information is not very helpful to me. Looking from internet this has happened to a couple of other users too.
What should I do? Good suggestions welcome.

Hi @MrPanda ,
Always in case of trouble with accounts, please double check the time, date and time zone settings on the phone, and verify that there is an active data connection via mobile or Wi-Fi. Also, the strangest problems are sometimes resolved by shutting the phone down and starting it again.
Otherwise, the next steps are:
In Settings -> Mail + Accounts is there a Microsoft account configured, with your email address in small print? - Not a deletable mail account, but the account entered during first setup of the phone. - If so, long press and select Synchronise from the pop up menu.
In case the Microsoft account is missing for whatever reason, then the only option is a factory reset.
If it fails to synchronise, then please post the error code displayed, since that may give useful information.
OneDrive should start working once it has sync'ed ...
Hans
EDIT: A factory reset as suggested by @93tid must solve the problem. It is just that I had to perform a manual MS account sync to have the OneNote and Office Lens apps work properly after the upgrade to WP8.1 - and I wonder if something similar is happening here.

Nokia Lumia 720 Touch not working even after repla...

Hi ,
I had bought lumia 720 on 31/05/2013 , but on 28/12/2013 the touch was not working or the touch was working on its own. Since my phone was in warranty then, they replaced the touch free of cost. But again from 20/08/2014 my phone is having the same problem, touch not working. When i showed it to Nokia care, they told that again they need to replace the touch , it will cost around Rs. 7950 (since my phone was out of warranty this time)... My question is, within 1 year 2 months , twice the touch pad has problem. What kind of phone it is .... Please think before buying Nokia touch phones, I think still they are far behind in touch screen technology ( no offense :-) )....
Not only me, one of my friend also facing same problem with Lumia 720 ....

Not beeing familiar with other countries consumer laws and consumer rights, I can only speak for my self and Norway. But as far as I'm concerned I would have expected extended rights for the new parts and the labour. - If however the fault can relate to the parts involved with the mentioned replacement.
But if this is not possible in your country, there isn't much to do other than repair it for pay or leave it.

The app wouldn't open, tot it was d app with the problem...den turned on my flashlight app, but also greeted the d strange sound...also the light won't come on... I am really disappointed and getting forstrated by Nokia...
what can I do?

Hello, victovic2000.
Thank you for posting and welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions.
Sorry for the inconvenience it is causing you. By the way, how was the phone now? Is it still doing the same thing? Is it happening to the default camera only or same with the other camera app? Did something happen to your phone prior to the issue? Is your phone's software up-to-date?
You may check if there's an available software update for your phone by going to Settings > Phone updates. Note that a stable internet connection is needed. We encourage you to use Wi-Fi instead. You may also consider doing a 'full reset' by going to Settings > About > Reset your phone. Make sure to backup your files to avoid data loss. Here's how: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/how-to/wp8/basics/back-up-my-stuff.

Nokia Lumia 521 3G not working

Hi,
I have a carrier unlocked Lumia 521 which I am trying to use in Asia. I am unable to connect to my carrier's 3G network even though network's carrier frequency is 2100.
What could be the problem ?
Thanks,
Rishabh

Interestingly, I have a Lumia 520 also which works perfectly fine on 3G network in Asia. So, if both 520 and 521 are based on the same hardware, why shouldn't 521 work on 2100 network outside US.
Because the 520 is a global variant while it seems the 521 is exclusive to T-Mobile US only

hi mate,
have you checked that you are up to date with the latest firmware thur checking in Settings > Phone Update, and that you are up to date with all the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store? if you are, and you are still encountering problems then it appears you will need to visit your Nokia Care point for inspection of your phone.

Nokia Lumia 920 - Not connecting on MAC OSX 10.6.8

Hello everybody,
I have this problem that alot of people are encounting but it seems having no solutions yet.
I bought my Nokia Lumia 920 a couple days ago, made all the updates alvaible but still I can't connect my phone to my MacBook Pro.
The funny part is that my dropbox application on my mac detect my phone and tries to import my pictures where neither iTunes or Finder are able to recognize my Nokia.
The all support we got is to download a app which is not working for the OSX 10.6.8 and they seem to force us to upgrade to the 10.7 OSX.
It is my right, as a consummer, to choose to OS I want for my laptop and it is to both Windows and Nokia to make their devices compatible to their customers computers.
So here is my call to all Nokia and Windows developpers: Do not ignore us, there is a problem and the first step in order to solve it is to recognize this problem.
The least you can do is to tell us that you are currently working on it because I feel all alone in the dark but I am pretty sure I am not alone and you might loose some clients that are delighted with your phone but really "**bleep**" off the way that they are treated in the process of solving this important problem.
Thank you for your time and comprehension,
I am looking forward some advices from any developpers.
JyCey

I have to raise a different view point. Many users of macs are ordinary, non-techie people, who simply want a machine to do basic things. I know people with very old macs, and they are happily using them for simple purposes. I have 10.6.8, and any upgrade would cost me some money to upgrade parallels. Macs can run for years, and I believe that it is important for equipment to be able to be used for long periods of time, if the user wishes. Also, earlier OS are very commonly unsed in coutries where money and internet is not as available as to many of us.
I also use a mac with XP as I need a small install base for only one PC based software that I occasionally use.
As a developer, I would expect them to look at the actual installed back of OS, and realise that some simple functionality should be backward to existing users. The ability for a phone to connect to earlier OS is something which I did not even think about - I thought it would be automatic. Its also not that difficult to develop.
The forums are awash with frustrated new pruchasers of Lumia phones, suddenly realising that their expected functionality with PC Suite, etc has now gone. Many of those people are very frustrated, and they will pass on their frustrations to others, and sales will be affected.
I have been a Nokia user now for about six years, and I have watched the same frustrations of users, requesting Nolia to develop expected connection, integration, and sync software that other phone manufacturers seem to be able to do. Finally, a reasonable PC Suite version is now developed, but not compatible with Lumia?? Do we have to go through the whole waiting thing again? Why cannot Nokia look at this not as a software problem, but an expected functionality feature.

Nokia Lumia 920 issues... that nokia CANNOT fix

I have got quite a few issues with this useless phone:
MMS messages: i cannot recieve them. i can with my iphone, its a nokia issue, they are unable to let me know what is wrong.
random rebooting: this shoudnt happen but it does, very annoying.
unable to connect to WPA2 Enterprise networks :a biggie for me, will install a certificate, but cannot use it, nokia CANNOT fix this issue
battery life is nothing like advertised, i was advised by nokia to disable data, disable wifi, disable EVERYTHING turning my premium phone into a dumbphone
the phone creaks, you can hear it on calls and video's captured
Nokia support is useless, they tell me they will call me back, but never do.
the camera is useless in normal light conditions heaps of overexpsed area's
anyone have any fixes for these issues?

As has been reported by many people here as a result of an equal amount of people bringing it up Battery life on the Lumia 920 will require a number of charging cycles to optimize, This has nothing to do with the phone but is inherent of the type of batteries used in modern day phones and not specific to Lumia 920.
Battery use may vary depending on a number of issues. If you are seeing mailsync, sending and/or receiving SMS and others be troublesome and require many retries it could be you are in a region where the signal is not very good. I am _not_ saying it's not the phone, just that it does not have to be, and frankly often isn't.
Nokia Drive+ is not available as a beta for nothing. If you can't deal with or won't be willing with using beta software then don't. The latest update has reportedly improved performance significantly.
How does MMS not working have anything to do with Battery, get the correct settings from your carrier. There's plenty of information available here on how to get this sorted.
What are your expectations of battery life? In general I would say for a phone like the Lumia 920 a normal working day should be quite acceptable and many users initially reporting shorter life have cone back in confirming that battery life has seriously improved over the initial few days/weeks of use.
And in conclusion, if you feel your device is faulty talk to Nokia using the contact details here. In such a case there is nothing anyone here can say or do to help you really.

Nokia Lumia 920 - Unlocked - Cannot use internet

I've been having trouble with my nokia lumia 920, namely with the internet (or rather, lack of it) ever since it was unlocked.
I purchased my locked Nokia Lumia from a Phones4U store in the UK and it worked just fine with my UK Orange sim card. However, when I had it unlocked (not by Orange. They would not sell me the unlock code because I had not bought the phone from Orange, so I had to go through another route) I noticed the internet was not working. Everything else was fine, apart from that.
At the time I was in Greece and using a Vodafone sim card. I received a text from the carrier saying I had to download an app for the internet to work, so I clicked on the link they had sent, which in turn would not work because the app I needed to download apparently did not exist. (I had to do the same thing with my iphone 4S and it worked just fine)! I assumed it was because Vodafone did not have 4G so I ignored it and resulted to using just WiFi whenever it was available.
When I went France I purchased a sim card from Orange in the hope that it would work but, again, I didn't. By this time I had already gone online and had a look for tips (I had done the Settings>mobile network>highest connection speed>3G, in case 4G was not available) but to no avail.
I really like this phone and would like to make use of it but without internet there's not much I can do. Would anyone have any tips as to how to resolve this problem? Anything will be really appreciated! Thanks in advance.
Solved!

When you click on settings - Wifi stupid i know but check it is switched on. Under that can you see a list of connection points. Also can you connect to internet via GPRS
If above is yes ( as I am sure it will be ) for Wifi. If no for GPRS have you tried inputting a new apn manually.
Name - Orange Internet
APN - everywhere
Proxy & Port - Please leave blank
Username - eesecure
Password - secure
Server - Please leave blank
MMSC - http://mms/
MMS Proxy - 149.254.201.135
MMS Port - 8080
MCC - 234
MNC - 30
Authentication type - PAP
APN type - Internet & MMS (If no selection available , leave blank )
Also in settings - mobile network ensure data (first item is set to on and in bottom item network selection (mine was set to automatic). click on setting and it will search for networks. select the one you want , I presume Orange.
See if that helps
Maybe with future updates we will be able to modify internet settings

Download different file types on nokia lumia 920

Hi,
I recently got myself a nokia lumia 920.. Great phone i must say, however i find this phone is more limiting than the iPhone, or a cheap black berry curve
Firstly, you cannot download anything from the internet that is not compatible with the phone, for example, .exe, .zip, .dll etc etc. This is the most annoying thing for me, as i constantly need to download software, drivers and tools to copy later to my computer. The other night i urgently needed internet access on my PC, and wanted to tether using my phone, NO USB tether support - HOW LAME!. anyways, i got myself a wireless card for my PC, but did not have the drivers for it... And could not download the drivers using my Lumia. So i managed to get the micro sim working in my old blackberry 9300 curve, and successfully downloaded my wifi drivers. So not being able to download anything either than apps and pictures on this lumia makes it a huge fail, what is the use of having so much storage and high broadband speed on this phone?
Next is the bluetooth,
I hate it! cannot define what services to connect over bluetooth... for example:
I have a bluetooth enabled radio in my car, and connect my Lumia to it. Works great for phone calls, however if you lock/unlock the phone, type a message or use the phone in anyway, it cuts whatever is playing on my radio and changes it to bluetooth audio mode... Now with my previous phones, blackberry, samsung etc. i could set the bluetooth service to only work as handsfree, and not stream all my phone's audio through to bluetooth. With the nokia Lumia, there is no options when it comes to bluetooth, either on or off - LAME
And then the magnetic charger....
Does not work, charged the phone until full, next morning the phone is off - dead flat (6hours after fully charged)
I exchanged the charger twice already, and sent the phone in for repairs, this problem is still not resolved. So i have been using my old blackberry charger to charge the lumia - lasts +- 1.5 days now with constant usage.
The nokia lumia has all the basic smart phone stuff - GPS navigation, exchange email supp, sync drive(skydrive etc), USB connectivity and storage, and internet tether - but the limiting options for downloading and bluetooth make this phone less of a smart phone than my blackberry curve. This phone is just pretty, and should only be used by people who want something fancy and limited, or developers that need to test apps on windows mobile 8.

Did you check the detailed Info of the Application ? Does it mention the functionality which you think is missing ?

Nokia Lumia 920 India Launch ! - Some Observations...

Hi,
Being a Nokia fan for years .. I decided to write this .. I hope people at the right level from Nokia see this.
We all know Nokia Lumia 920 has probably hit all the right spots with Users abroad and the best thing is they are loving it a lot. I probably would like to be one of them soon.
However I have certain concerns,
When Nokia launced Lumia in India people had high hopes including myself however one thing that I have always found going wrong is the 'PRICING' .. yes such insanely high pricing at launch .. why ? Look at the pricing of Lumia 800 at launch (around 33k) . Look at the pricing of Lumia 900 still (31k) ? .. Lumia 800 now sells around at the price of 19k !! - almost a 40% drop in price.
The basic thinking in the minds of people including me is 'Don't buy a Nokia phone immediately on launch !!'. Why can't this be changed ? - Yes everybody wants to earn profits but in a situation wherein you are more in search for Mindshare .. This does not make sense. Obviously I am no one to teach anybody anything but this is what I feel & what I have felt for years.
If I buy a Nokia Lumia 920 at launch only to find that after 3 months the pricing has come down by 3-5k .. I will not be a Happy Consumer.
Nokia - Launch Lumia 920 at a very competitive price (so that the likes of SGS3 & HTC 8x will feel ashamed) .. Arrive at a price & keep it steady for real long so that the initial adopters are happy & others come to know that Nokia's pricing is real good and will stay that way for long.
Nokia's Lumia are pretty good phones .. they never lag when compared to Android etc however they have not been well received by people here in India. The most common answer that I get is 'Bluetooth not there - can't transfer files' , 'Can't use memory card ' & 'Apps not available'.
Nokia - you have to change this mindset of people because with Windows Phone 8 these things are no longer hindrances ! .. especially Bluetooth & Micro-sd support.
I am expecting your Ads to have this .. be it on Radio or TV or Internet.
Can we have right people on the Job ? - Recently I went to Hypercity Mall (in Mumbai) (Nokia booth). I took in my hand a Lumia 510. I asked how much RAM ? .. to my surprise he answered 512 Mb .. and I was like What ? I asked him to recheck - still the same answer. He said we have confirmed. The phone actually comes with 256 Mb of RAM.
Now imagine what happens to a consumer who brought this phone from him ?
Nokia - Please get the right people at task for Nokia Lumia 920 & 820 because there you have got some real innovations like PureView, OIS, Wireless Charging etc. Ensure that users get the right demo of all the innovations. First impression will be the Last impression.
At Malls (without Nokia booths), the 2 phones Lumia 800 & Lumia 710 lonely guard the booths .. with rarely anybody there to explain about them. Just on the side of it I find Samsung's booth with all the latest flagships standing there & probably someone to explain about it - however Android needs no explanation these days will all aware about it (& even if not aware they know a phone with it is Cool!).
Nokia - Please set your own booths for Lumia (both WP8 & WP7) & assign one of your Guys per Booth. I really don't know the dynamics of setting up booth at a mall & the financial impact of it. All you need to do is differentiate your Lumia's from others.
Alternatively you can have a Lumia Van (or Lumia Vans) running around the City with all the possible Lumia's on it for doing Demo's. All Lumia's - since a person can come up to check a Lumia 510 too & not having a specific Lumia means Dissatisfaction for the user.
Nokia Lumia 920,820 & 620 are gem of a phones .. Hope everything is done right with them in a price sensitive market like India & I hope that Nokia you are listening to a User's opinion here.
Here's someone who wishes real good things for Nokia. Good luck with the launch of Nokia Lumia 920, 820 & 620. Desperately waiting !!

Hi slon!
Welcome to Nokia Forum!
Let me answer your question in the same manner you have presented it.
1. How can I configure networking option for individual application (it was standard option before, see N8)
- Can you tell me which particular application/s you are referring to? The phone prioritizes WLAN connection over 3G to ensure quality customer experience.
Example: Nokia Maps - when downloading map data, it would require you to use WLAN as phone would require high amount of data.
2. Where can I find the option like: Automatic, Always ask, WLAN only when using access to data connection
- These options are not available on the device. However, you can find some settings that are similar to what you are looking for:
Settings>Wifi>Tap on Advanced> you will have the following options:
Notify me when new networks are found
Automatically connect to Wi-Fi hotspots
Send information about Wi-Fi connections to help discover nearby Wi-Fi
Keep Wi-Fi on when the screen times out

Nokia Lumia 920 potential battery drain issue?

Can you Nokia confirm this? http://reach.jdbpocketware.com/topic/128305-to-nokia-ref-lumia-920/
The issue illustrated in detail:
Nature of Windows Phone buttons
Pressing either the power button or the camera button will cause the device screen to turn on, even when the proximity sensor detects proximity.
[IMAGE http://i.imgur.com/M2to9.png]
The lockscreen behavior
Upon power on, screen lights up and shows the lockscreen (or camera), which runs a timeout to auto power off the device if screen is not touched in X seconds.
But if screen is touched, the timeout counter is restarted, so continuous touching could lead into a loop, the "death loop" which won't let the device to power off (standby) and will consume battery life.
[IMAGE http://i.imgur.com/2HNdV.png]
New touchscreen technology
The Nokia Lumia 920 comes with a touchscreen that reacts to touch from pretty much any material such as metal or clothes. This can be dangerous.
[IMAGE http://i.imgur.com/4tbyY.png]
So here is a theory
When the phone is inside a pocket or bag it can be touched by other objects. These objects can press buttons and can touch/rub the screen. This will initiate the "death loop" for who knows how much time, could be minutes or hours, depends on how active the user is since body movement will produce friction between objects/clothes and touchscreen:
[IMAGE http://i.imgur.com/XMT0y.png]
The "death loop" will drain battery and battery is precious.
Solution?
Should be simple: screen must not power on if the proximity sensor detects proximity. Current version of Windows Phone does not take care of this. The big question is: will Windows Phone 8 take care of this? Is the Lumia 920 a potential battery drainer?

I don't understand why we have to spend our valuable time in the forums for days and nights to FIND HOW TO FIX THAT CRAB!! NOKIA company did not handout these devices FOR CHARITY.All of us had paid around a thousand dollars to buy this Phone. They have got to work overtime to fix it and publish a solution otherwise recall the devices back.
