920 chiming on the wireless charging pad... grrr.....

A while back, one of the updates to the Lumia 920 caused it to begin chiming periodically while resting on the wireless charging pad (or, as I've discovered, sitting in the wireless car charger, too). I'm not talking about the initial chime when it is first set down and begins charging. No, this chime happens randomly as long as it remains on the charger... I've heard it happen a couple of times within just a few minutes, and I've heard it wait an hour or two before going off again. Of course, if you set the phone to vibrate, it will just "buzz" instead of "bing," but it's still going off.
Prior to this problem, I used to set my 920 on the wireless charger on my nightstand and let it juice up overnight. Once the binging started, I was forced to either stop using the wireless charger (bummer... that's one of the things I really like about the 920) or set the phone to silence so I could sleep through the random vibrating (though my work requires me to be on-call for emergencies, so that doesn't really work).
When I first contacted Nokia about this problem several months ago, they said they were aware of the problem and would fix it in a future update. Well, the "black" update didn't fix it.
I spoke with Customer Support at Nokia today, and the guy had no knowledge of the problem. (Wasn't too impressed with his knowledge about the phone at all, for that matter, but that's a different issue.) He asked if I had ever tried resetting the phone, which of course I had and was actually a part of the "black" update even if I hadn't. Then he suggested that it might be a problem with my specific phone, and he wanted me to send it in for an engineer to take a look. When I pointed out that we've got 4 Lumia 920s here and they all have had the same problem since it was introduced in an earlier update, he still wanted me to send in my phone.
So I'm really, really frustrated. I love my 920. In fact, the one thing that's kept me from jumping to the 1020 is the built-in wireless charging (I don't think it's as elegant when added with a case like the 1020). So am I stuck with ignoring the wireless charging capabilities now? Plugging it in the old way at night, and considering the investment of a bunch of wireless charging plates for our bedsides to be a waste?
Any chance Nokia will step in and offer a solution? Any other use figure this one out?

I had the same issue on my 820 and Black did fix it. Have you checked that you have updated all system apps after you got Black ? Lumia System Updater is one of the free apps which can do that for you.

  • Missing Samsung Wireless Charging Pad with Purchase of Galaxy S6

    Hi Bestbuy,
    I recently ordered the Galaxy S6 on bestbuy.com. I saw a page that said Free Samsung Wireless Charging Pad with Galaxy S6 purchase valid 3/27/15-5/9/15. I noticed it wasn't added to my order. I also called the customer service line and the representative didn't know what I was talking about. Could you guys please help me out.
    Thank you!
    Jason

    Hi JDiep,
    I hope that you have had a great weekend thus far.
    From the information I have reviewed, we did recently offer a free Samsung Wireless Charger with the purchase of a Samsung Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge.  You would need to have added the charger to your online shopping cart during checkout in-order to advantage of the promotional offer.  I looked over the order you placed using the email address you registered with the forum and it does not appear the charger was attached to your order when it was submitted.
    With that having been said, I will be sending you a private message so that I can go over your order with you in additional detail to see what I can potentially do to help.  To check your private messages, you will want to login to the forum and click on the little yellow envelope icon located at the top of the page.  I look forward to further speaking with you.
    Thank you for posting to the forum and enjoy your new Samsung Galaxy S6!

  • Lumia 920 not working after wireless charge

    This is not my phone specifically, it is a family memers phone on my plan. 
    So she has had the phone for a month and from what i know, it worked fine no issues.  ATT forgot to order her a wireless charger so they finally did and used it for the first time last night.  Not sure how long she charged, but after chargine, the phone did not work and she could not boot the phone. 
    I asked her to ry to do a soft reset by holding the volume and middle button, the phone vibrates after 10 seconds, but it shoes a blue screen.  I asked her to do a hard reset wiping everything and starting frrom factory, same thing happens with a blue screen coming on and nothing else. 
    Im not certain if she had the update either, i doubt she has the update.  Is there a way to get this phone up and running or will i have to do a warranty exchange?
    Thanks

    Sounds like you have tried everything, so apart from installing the Portico update that was pushed for AT&T and Rogers devices in the last few days, and checking that she is up-to-date with all the Nokia system app updates in the Store, there is nothing much else that can be done. You most likely will need to take the phone back to the point of purchase and request a replacement, as it sounds it is hardware defective.

  • Wireless Charger problem

    Why wont my S5 charge on the wireless pad only when the pad is connected to an outlet.

        bigdoggy77,
    Let's clear things up. I completely understand the confusion. Given that the wireless charging pad does not have an internal battery it will require power from an outlet to provide power to the phone. The wireless charging pad is considered wireless there is no wire required to plug into your device to charge it.

  • Lumia 920 wireless charging not working after phon...

    Long story short
    Coulnd't hear anyone speaking on the phone if volume was turned up over 6 as internal earpiece distorts too badly (there is something loose inside the Lumia 920)
    Got the phone back from Nokia care point in Cheltenham UK, earpiece fault not fixed.
    Took it home, put it on the wireless charger - it now does not charge whereas it did perfectly before the trip to get 'fixed'
    Nokia careport say 'Nothing to do with us, we'll have to send it back to Finland, which will take 3 weeks and you can't have a spare phone'
    As a result, my confidence in Nokia is fading fast, won't be giving them any more chances to build a decent phone when this contract ends.

    Sounds like the care point has broken it and are refusing to accept responsibility for their actions. Care points are independent and not directly run by Nokia.
    I suggest you submit a complaint to Nokia UK on this link:

  • Lumia 920 Wireless Charging not working - Known is...

    I have a Nokia Lumia 920, which works perfectly fine. I haven't had some of the other issues reported here with freezing, apps, etc.
    I have a Nokia charging plate and I've found that no matter what I do the wireless charging plate absolutely does not work. I've turned off Bluetooth, Wifi, turned ON Battery Saver, disabled every background app, even hard reset my phone and tried charging it from stock. The wireless charging plate doesn't even maintain the current battery state - The battery slowly drains hour by hour. I've also tried placing the phone on the charging plate in different positions to ensure it's making good contact. Nothing works.
    Is this a known issue? Is there anyway to identify a defective phone? Is there a possible fix for this? I love my Lumia, but this a killer feature I would expect to work consistently.

    OK, this thread is odd. My charging plate works fine. It has a side with a little ring and Nokia in it, and the other side has an oval of rubber around the periphery with the usual conformance writing on it that side Qi, CE, don't throw it on the trash icon,  Mine works just fine with the Oval down, and the Nokia in the ring up. Is that not what others see?
    I can turn it over, but it is touchy as to whether I can get the light to come on. Usually not. I assumed, initially, the oval went down to keep it from sliding around on the table, and Nokia went up because they want you to know it's Nokia. Has always worked that way. I wish there was a larger rubber something on the 'top' as the phone can slide and spin more than I think it should.
    For what it is worth, I much prefer the charge stand, but the plate is more convenient if I am going to travel somewhere for a while. Couple of days, just charger, week or so, might bring the plate for the hotel.
    BTW, I do get the connect noise when putting it on the charge plate. Sometimes it can take a second otr two. When I take it off, it can take several seconds to get the disconnect noise and the charging icon to go away. If I put it back on the charger before the disconnect noise and the charge icon goes away, it does NOT make a connect noise, though the light comes on. The light will also eventually go off at full charge.

  • Iphone5 wireless charger and the iphone5s

  • Is the Lumia 820 wireless charging cover compatibl...

    Hello,
    I have just bought this induction charging base in Amazon Germany. I had purchased the Nokia charging cover for my Lumia 820 already last month. But now that I lay down my phone on the base nothing happens. I thought that induction charging couldn't really be a proprietary standard (I mean, it's just basic physics after all!) but now I'm wondering if somehow the Nokia covers are not compatible with other brands of chargers? I'd find that hard to believe...
    Has anybody used the wireless charging feature with other brands of chargers? Could there be some option that I need to turn on in my phone that I don't know of?
    PS: I also contacted just now the charging base's manufacturer to see if they know of any compatibility issues

    The cover is compatible with all wireless chargers that use the Qi Standard. It will not work with wireless chargers that use other standards, for example the old "powermat" chargers.
    More about Qi here: http://www.wirelesspowerconsortium.com/what-we-do/qi/
    The one on your link doesn't mention any standards so itt's either like the powermats or proprietary. 

  • Lumia 920 Wireless Charging plate car adaptor?

    Hello guys,
    I really want to connect my wireless charging plate to my car. Maybe convert it to USB since USB car adapter can be found everywhere. Anyone knows where I can buy such converter?
    Thank you.

    I believe that the corded connection from the wireless charging plate is a 2.5mm connection, and thus won't connect to USB and therefore there are no accessories. 2mm chargers and 2.5mm charger connections are usually the Nokia proprietary technology, so unless you solder one yourself, I doubt you will find what you are looking for, my friend.

  • Nokia 925 Wireless Charging

    Hi, I have just acquired a 925 and I also have 2 920 at my place.
    I seem to have a problem charging wirelessly on my 925.
    Charges then disconnects then charges again.
    Initially, I thought it was an issue with my charging pads, fyi, I have 2 wireless charging pads as well.
    The standing version & they flat on table version.
    When I place my other two 920 on either one of them, no problems charging what so ever.
    This totally proves to me that neither one of the charging plates are faulty
    So I thought, it's probably the chaging clip on on the phone that has issues.
    I went to get it replaced today by the shop I got the 925 from.
    Now I'm home, I'm still having the same problems when charging.
    Is it my phone since I got the charging clip replaced already?

    This an issue based on "BATCH!"
    I got mine resolved by going to Nokia Care.
    They replaced the back charging clip to new one & now it's charging perfectly well.
    It has been observed that some back plates given as free gifts by Telcos were giving this prob.
    It's not isolated, so going to Nokia Care getting it replaced would be an instant fix.
    At least it did for me.

  • Nokia 1020 wireless charging

    Hey guys
    I will be buying the Nokia 1020 with the wireless charging cover soon. I just want to know if this phone will be compatiable with a QI wireless car holder/charger.
    It's one of these:
    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/QI-Wireless-Car-Charger-Pad-Holder-for-Phone-Nokia-Lumia-920-820-HTC-8X-/1...
    It says it supports a samsung galaxy note 3 so it much be able to fit a Nokia 1020 in, tried contacting the seller; no help. They just sent me the same compatible list that is on the product description.
    I think it will work but I don't get why they don't mention it, they mention all the phones that doesn't come with a genuine wireless charging. Like iphone doesn't support wireless charging, some company made them specially for them.
    Anyway, I just want your opinion.
    Thanks.

    Unfortunately Nokia does not have access to retailers stocks so you will need to contact retailers directly for that information. You'll probably find that if you visit a large mall you'll find plenty of stores selling them.
