Freezing issue with Lumia 800

Hi,
   I bought a new Lumia at the Ambience Mall in Gurgoan 2 days ago and since the time I began using it, it suddenly and randomly freezes with no display and totally unresponsive. There seems to be tactile vibration on pressing the Windows or search buttons, but the phone is also unreachable. The only option is to reboot the phone and this is really irritating as I dont know when it freezes up. I have to keep switching on and checking.
I am told there is a replacement for these phones if any issues happen, even the Nokia care repair shop was unable to help. Now since I am located in Bangalore, is there any other retailer I can have this phone exchanged?

I had the same issue with the screen freezing. I've been reading other threads on this and some say it could be cold weather. I remember I had a Nokia 5800 and the screen would scramble when it was cold out. The only way to fix the screen to use a magnet on a certain part of the screen or heat the phone up with a blow dryer and use the unlock switch. I don't know if it's the same deal with the lumia 800. I remember  rubbing the screen with my thumbs on the screen in opposite directions and pressing the unlock button to try to unlock the screen. That worked a few times.

    For this special promotion in India you might like to look at this previous post concerning this issue where OP received an invitation from Nokia with SMS code:http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nokia-Lumia/Free-play360-speaker-with-lumia-800/m-p/1571008/highligh...
    If this promotion is run in similar fashion to that in UK, online registration could not be completed and it had to be actioned by contacting Nokia Care.

  • Interface freeze issue with Flash Projector

    I am facing an interface freeze issue with Flash Projector running a flex state based application. A Flash Projector exe was generated from a standalone flash player ver 10.2. The target machine on which the problem occuresd has 10.3.
    Basically "screen freeze" means that the user interface is running as usual on Flash Player, but it's not responding to any user input (like button presses). But if we alt-tab to another application, the state changes in the Flash player. There is display with buttons on the screen, but touching the buttons or doing anything else - it did not respond.  Rebooting the computer fixes the problem.
    Can you suggest why this is happening? Is there any known bug in Flash Player.
    The problem is this is being hard to reproduce on the developer workstation as it doesn't happen always. But it happens quite often on the target machine running an Intel Atom N270. What debugging steps can you suggest?
    Problem Description : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z25oV9QWRyk

    First, thanks for the video.  Having this always makes it much easier to understand the problem.  A couple of recommendations.  First, if you feel like this might be a player bug, please add a new bug report over at bugbase.adobe.com and if possible please include any sample code or swf's that can help us reproduce the problem internally.  Linking the video would also be great.  In addition, would you mind reposting this question over on the Flash Professional forums?  This forum is primarily for end users, the Pro forums will get you in touch with a wider developer audience who might have additional feedback.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi,
    changing language to english does not help.
    I found more details about this. It is always a reply or forwarded message gets corrupted, never original one. 2 messages I checked both had long subject. In the corrupted one the subject gets truncated to 26 cyrilic or 52 latin symbols, depennding on the language of the mail.
    So, I made a simple test. I create new mail and type all letters of Ukrainian alphabet  (32) "Абвгдеєжзиіїйклмнопрстуфхцчшщюя"
    and send to myself. Message body contains 1 word "Тест"  (means "test" in Ukrainian). The first instance looks ok - I can see full length of subject and read message body. But as soon as I reply to it my subject is truncated to "RE: АбвгдеєжзиіїйклмнопрÑ" and mail body is like that:
     =?utf-8?B?

    Mail looks like this already in my "sent" folder on the phone, so this is definitelly phone mail client issue and as I observed it on 2 lumias I'm sure it is systemic one.
    It looks like phone client is incorrectly processing long subject fileds, so it mess up with mail body and whole mail gets corrupted.
    If I cut the subject text to 20 symbols and I send it, it looks just fine...
    When I try to submit this, I've got message "Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and submit the message when you are satisfied." So, now I'm not completelly sure that quoted message still looks the same as i my mail client.

  • Serious Issues with Lumia 820

    Dear Sir/Mam ,
    I am very sorry to inform you that i have been using Nokia Lumia 820 since past  3 months , and every day i am facing new problems . Few problems I already mailed you before ( Service request no : 1-6KQPRQV )
     ,which started persisting within the 7 days of purchase . It is a very bad experience for a genuine customer like me , as nokia is like a family to me . Every one including my mother , father , brother are using Nokia and never faced problems since we started using cell phones .
    Apart from problems i mentioned before ,few serious problems I have been facing past few days are as below :
    * People i speak with are not able to listen me properly (my voice reaches them very low) , the problem is not permanent though but it rises anytime .
    *My volume key button do not respond , as i cannot change volume of the songs for hours even though i can see the volume rising and falling in display .
    **** and the most important problem which i faced today is very upsetting and i am in real pain because of it , my phone dropped from a height not more than 1/2 feet ( i mean it) and my lowermost screen is damaged . I was not believing my eyes when i saw it . How can be the the screen of a phone which costs me Rs 23,800 be so soft .Thank god display is working  but i am unable to use windows key button . 
    I am very upset because of it . Being love with Nokia i borrowed it on installments , half of which are still pending and I am in no position to spend money on my 3 months old phone . 
    Please suggest me what to do , hoping for your early response . 
    Thanks & Regards ,
    Gaurav Singh

    Before I start, please note that this is a user to user forum.
    Sorry to hear about the problems you are experiencing. Does sound like there are issues with your handset because it is definitely not behaving normally. Your first port of call should be your local Nokia Care Point. They should be able to assess the issues with your phone and advice you on the options available to you. 

  • Freezing issues with MSI 970A-G43 and AMD FX 8320

    Hey all,
    I bought my brother a new system a few days ago, but he has had serious issues with the machine crashing ever since.
    The machine has had a fresh installation of Windows 7, it has all the latest drivers for both motherboard, sound, chipset and video card (Latest VGA driver tested as well as the latest Beta version)
    I thought the problem might be with the VGA card, as the computer would just shut off during 3d Gaming, but it also seems to happen when surfing the internet or doing normal "2d" activities
    What happens is the computer will just seemingly shut off, the LED lights on the front of the case, around the dials, start blinking and the only way to get it back up again, is to turn if off at the power supply unit and then turn it back on again.
    I'll paste in what my brother sent me (As I live in the UK and can't see the machine crashing myself), he said:
    I dunno what the issue is but, last night the comp just shut off in middle of game play on 3 different games, and the lights were flashing, I had to turn complete power off to the power box and back on to restart comp, I kept checking all my temps with speccy and speed fan and nothing seemed high at all, also when it shuts off and I re start it, a lot of my desktop icons move around to different spots,
    Update: crashed a few times on me, once playing euro, once just browsing Internet 5 min after the first one, changed out ram just for shots and giggles and ran euro on ultra for about 5 min and crashed. I dl a gpu monitor gadget, was accurate on temp but said the gpu was 0% but with just Internet would randomly jump to 99% or 40% then back to 0 and would stay and eventually crash
    Spec is:
    AMD FX-8320 3.5GHZ EIGHT CORE
    500GB SATA III 6GB/S 7200RPM 16MB
    COOLERMASTER SEIDON 120M WATER COOLER
    4Gb DDR3 / 1600 MHZ MEMORY
    MSI 970A-G43 AMD 970 CROSSFIRE AM3+ DDR3 USB 3.0 SATA
    CORSAIR 500 WATTS CX500 V2 80 PLUS POWER SUPPLY
    ASUS XONAR DG 5.1 CHANNELS PCI XONAR DG SOUND CARD
    AMD RADEON 7750 2GB PCI-E
    There was a concern I did have when I did search earlier, via a thread on Tomshardware in which a similiar board had issues with the FX8350's wattage going above the stated 125 watts and causing the board to freeze.
    It's a different board/chip, but I wonder if the wattage of the CPU goes above 125W and causes problems on the board? Hmm
    I feel really guilty right now, because I bought this for him as a present, it was $700ish plus shipping etc and it's been nothing but problems ever since.
    I'm going to see what version of Bios he's running when he gets out of bed, but the Live Update software said there were no updates, but I'll have him check manually.
    Another issue I noted, was I sent him some ram before the PC arrived, which was:
    XMS3 — 8GB Dual Channel DDR3 Memory Kit (CMX8GX3M2A1333C9)
    He originally put that ram in with the existing 4gb of ram, so I thought it "Might" be a conflict, due to them having a different Mhz value
    So I had him remove the 4gb stick that came with the PC
    As soon as he entered the bios, it froze and did so twice
    So he removed that ram and put back the original 4gb stick and the bios worked
    No idea if the two are related.

    I hope this doesn't count as necro-ing a thread (last post was in October), but it's the one closest to my situation.
    I have the following setup:
    MSI 970a-g43 motherboard
    AMD FX-6300 cpu
    ATI Radeon HD 4550 graphics card
    4x 2GB RAM sticks
    2x 500 GB 3.5" SATA hard drives
    CoolMax 700W psu
    16x r/rw DVD burner
    cheapo SD and others card reader that fits in the floppy drive bay
    Older PC tower that has a temperature sensor built into it
    I built it around November 15th, and it worked until a couple days ago (December 12th I think), when it started doing the sudden shut-off thing. Same as Adresch described: shuts off, tower light blinks, have to flip the i/o switch off and back on to boot again. I consulted a friend for some suggestions, and he said I should put a water cooler in there, because the stock heatsink that comes with most processors are junk. So I went out and bought a Corsair H55 water cooler and installed that.
    The computer seemed to run for a bit longer before shutting off. I loaded up the BIOS software, SpeedFan, and HWMonitor. SF said the CPU was running average of 48*C, and GPU was averaging 51*C. The CPU's highest was at 61*C and its lowest was 36*C. BIOS software said CPU was at 35*C the whole time. HWMonitor listed the GPU at 51*C, and the CPU at 7*C. These are all very inconsistent with each other as far as I can tell, so I don't know what to make of these readings. Didn't seem to much matter as the computer continued shutting off.
    My options then being replacing the PSU or the motherboard, I decided to replace the power supply, since I was just within the 30 days. Switched for a ThermalTake TR2 700W. Before installing it, I pulled the tower's CPU temperature sensor wire from between the water cooler heatsink and the CPU, just in case. Then I installed the PSU, checked and rechecked all of the connections, and turned it on.
    Nothing.
    I then spent the next two hours rechecking everything, even unplugging everything and putting it back together. Still nothing. The best I could get was a flicker of the tower light and the fans doing a quarter turn before ceasing movement. The red LED on the front of the SD card reader stayed on the entire time, though, so I guess it was getting at least a trickle of power. I also removed everything but the PSU, motherboard, CPU, and one stick of RAM. Still no power. I think the new PSU may have been open box, so I'm returning it today for a different one, and even bumping it up to 850W.
    I'm not sure that will solve my original issue though, so I'll be looking for a heatsink to put on the VRMS as mentioned. Just thought I'd get this down in a relevant thread in case anyone had other thoughts on what could be going on.

  • Mac Pro Screen Freezing Issue with NVIDIA 8800 GT too

    There were lots of entry in threads, where the screen freezing issue was described (disorted screen with strange lines, only reboot helps). Nearly all cases seem to be related to the ATI 2600 card.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1358062&tstart=30
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1365277&tstart=0
    I opened this new thread to show, that this problems occurs not only for the ATI card but for the NVIDIA 8800 card, too.
    My MacPro was delivered 8 days ago and was running without any problems. But all of a sudden, I got that screen freeze. And it wasn't the first time, I was heavely working 2-3 hours with that computer.
    In total, 2 screen freezes showed on my computer. The first one during working with the computer. The second one during booting into MacOS X. The screen freeze occured during the boot phase with the grey screen and the spinning wheel.
    My configuration:
    MacPro 2.8, Dual Quad Core
    6 GB RAM
    3 harddisks, 1 standard from Apple, 2 Samsung with 750GB
    MacOS 10.5.2
    Formac 20" Monitor
    Perhaps others have this problem, too? Than we should emphasize, that this is not an ATI related problem.

    I've actually been having the freezing issue for a while now but I didn't have the know-how to troubleshoot it (PC tech trying to support the only Mac lab in the building).
    MacPro will freeze randomly (no trend in time, system strain, or open programs). The mouse will operate but will not interact with anything.
    Specs:
    MacPro - Model 1,1
    Dual Core Xeon 2.66
    2gb RAM
    nVidia GeForce 7300 GT
    Mac OS 10.4.11
    The machine always has 2 displays connected to it so the workaround that was discussed for the ATI 2600 doesn't apply. I had 1 display connected here in my shop and it froze for that as well.

  • Freezing Issues with multiple new MS-7028 (v1.0B) Motherboards

    I build several MSI motherboard based machines for clients every week.
    I have noticed a major problem with the MS-7028 (v1.0B) Neo2 and Neo2 Platinum Motherboards (I've had the same issue with both now)
    Things that cause the PC to freeze (mouse pointer freezes, nothing but a reboot or forced power off)
    1. Autorun of MSI "Drivers & Utilities" CD (several versions of the CD have been tried, all of them do it 90% of the time)
       Once it displays the "setup is launching, please wait" screen. Bang. It freezes.
    2. Running MSI CoreCenter (again tried several versions, including the most recent, downloaded of msi's website)
       Runs ok for a little while, but if left running while usually freeze the whole pc within minutes, if I play around in CoreCenter, it crashes even faster
    3. Running MSI Live Update 3 (again several versions have been tried, including the most recent release from MSI's website)
       Seems ok on the Neo2 Platinum M/B, but Neo2-FR version always froze system at "search VG card BIOS version"
    I have had this exact problem on 4 of 4 "MS-7028 (v1.0B) 915P Neo2-FR" and 2 of 2 "MS-7028 (v1.0B) 915P Neo2-Platinum" M/B's
    Any Ideas???
    edit:
    Each time this has happened the systems have been as follows.
    MS-7028 (v1.0B) Neo2-FR or Neo2-Platinum M/B
    Intel P4 3000Mhz Prescott CPU
    1G Geil Ultra DDR2 533Mhz (2x 512Mb Kit)
    MSI 6200 or 7300 PCI-E graphics
    Seagate 80-160G SATA Hdd
    LG 8x DVD-RW
    450+W PSU's always with 18A or higher on the 12+
    I’ve tried updating the Bios (which I do to all m/b's used for new systems)
    I’ve tried all the latest drivers
    This is always on a clean install of XP SP2
    happens on XP Pro and XP Home
    GRRRRRR HELP ME!!!!!!
    is the MS-7028 (v1.0B) Motherboard just a big stinky lemon?

    Quote from: Maesus on 10-May-06, 23:08:36
    When you said clean install, does that mean you started off from a 100% blank HDD?
    Correct
    Quote from: Maesus on 10-May-06, 23:08:36
    What version is your WinXP? 
    Windows XP Home SP2 (OEM) and Windows XP Pro SP2 (Oem) (happens on both)
    Quote from: Maesus on 10-May-06, 23:08:36
    Forget about the CD, Corecentre.. etc, get the drivers from the websites instead. and you don't have to get them from MSI websites. Intel INF drivers, get from intel.com. Display card get from nvidia.com.
    I get around the problem by downloading the  latest bios from msi's website
    I install the latest inf from intel.com and the latest nvidia drivers from nvidia.com
    and uninstall corecenter.
    It would just be nice to be able to have corecenter running, and to know WHY this happens

  • Software issues with lumia 1520 since wp8.1 update

    Hello,
    I have Lumia 1520 which I bought in may 2014. Last month I have updated to wp8.1. Initially it was doing fine but since last 10-15 days I have been facing a series of issues with my mobile. I suspect 8.1 update to be the reason as I never faced a glitch
    in my 3months of heavy usage on wp8.
    below are the problems I have faced so far,
    1) screen blacked out suddenly. No response whatsoever. It was working, I can receive calls and notifications but display does not work. Phone was continuously heating mean while. I visited the nearest,care center even they were clueless. Only thing they
    did was to hardreset my phone.
    2) volume automatically becomes 0. I try to change it someone value but the bar goes back to 0. Its like the volume is playing with me.annoying it was.
    3) the touch does not work sometimes. Its sporadic lock and unlock,it works fine.
    4) few minor issues.
    these issues really annoy me. These might be some minor bug fixes please take these up and resolve. I have gone through many forums and writing this. So
    many users facing similar issues. Thanks.

    I have requested our Windows Phone Device Update support team to look into this.
    Can you also post this in the Answers forum?

  • Annoying elementary problems with Lumia 800

    Hello all from noKIA and microSoft...
    Latest OS version upgraded 7.10.8773.98 but still elementary baby problems...
    1. First incoming phone  call ring tone seconds are at full volume 30/30 despite Your setting... **bleep**??? Why these first seconds should be at full volume? Can somebody from noKIA and microSoft explain that?
    2 Impossible to swish off phone ring tone AND vibrating thing. It vibrates in any version. **bleep**??? Why it is impossible to switch off EVERYTING sound and vibrato?
    3. Where has gone so old but good thing of ring volume presets as older phones had Outside, Silence, Meeting etc? It was not so bad thing at all. Why it is thrown out?
    4. On the phone with English settings there is Office in Russian... **bleep**??? How can I use all helps, descriptions etc of this soft if I do not understand that language?
    5.  No possibility to download smaller world language keyboard layouts. Why it is so impossible if big brother Windows has it? Ok I understand that it is a "really huge problem" to have menus in world smaller languages (just copy the translations from older models - how hard it can be???)
    6. And why all updates are so difficult, so user involving? Can somebody learn user friendliness in any angle from Apple?
    Seams that You do not learn on your mistakes and going deeper in them from phone to phone!
    P.S. And after latest update - seamed to not working promissed flip over for silencing the incoming lall ring tone...
    Nokia 1611, 2210, 3110, 5110, 6210, 6310, 6310i (up to these models totally satisfied)
    Then don't remember model, then E50 (mostly happy), then N97 mini - phone with briliant keyboard, but poor touchscreen, then business phone E07, phone that can not make a photo of contract, invoice or business card. poor design of usb port and 5 months at service did it - my nowadays phone is Apple. Company gave me Asha 300, so frustrating, that I use my old E50 instead...
    Solved!

    About ringtones - it was very useful profile option in "old and dead" Symbian. Please put Yourself in average life - You are in office - want to have very silent ringtones, not disturbing Your collegues, then You go out - again - not a few cilks, but holding the volume **bleep**...
    Then You go into theater - want to swich off sound and vibro - again - not so easy few clicks... You have to go to phone settings find sound controls etc... and do this stuff... Very convinient... Why newer phone has worse solutions???
    I'm from Latvia, so it is quite strange, that phone itself has only few menu languages in 21st century - except of course Latvian. How hard it can be to emit a phone already with regional language???
    But about settings - regional settings are available in Latvia - few things are shown in Latvian, but no keyboard layout in this language - i've checked.... Seams strange. The windows for PC itself already for years is in Latvia and has Latvia keyboard layouts etc.. Why for the Phone OS it is so impossible?
    And what for in Latvia Office is in Russian? For Russian office there is huge another country called - Russia... Why it is in Russian - the explanation is still not enough understandable... Russians even have another letters - totally different from Latin. Why we need in our country Russian office??? Think about that somefinnish guy in Finland buys phone and also have on phone Russian office... Efvery finn is just happy and says - this is what he is looking for - Russian office on phone that is sold in Finland for Finns... At leat phone could ack - what Office user wants - and change it while one of annoying long updates is proceeded...
    About phone firmware... Do You think it is a normal thing that phone starts to work as it should only after long, annoying and at least three updates? For My country - Latvia - this firmware update is still not available... I've checked on Nokia page... there are 30 countries in Europe and Latvia is not listed...
    The third question - I tried to copy phone book from old phone using contacts transfer - but I had to face a problem - BT does not work for that purposes despite that only this option is offered... Is it normal? Only possibility os offered through not supported data conection... Cool!
    Isn't it a special thing to introduce in market not finished "beta" phones? So unfinished, not enough tested etc?
    And you have to admit - Lumia 800 is not a cheep phone. Why people for that money do not have phone usable right from the box, but it means long updating, configuratinga and problems for big money???

  • Problem dialling certain digits with Lumia 800

    In order to find out how much pre-paid phone credit I have with my carrier, I can dial #123#, which works with my SIM in my iPhone (unlocked) and I get a response giving my available credit. However, when I try to dial this combination of digits with the same SIM in the Lumia 800 (unlocked), I always get the message 'failed'. Can anyone suggest how I might dial #123# on the Lumia? Thanks

    Hi GeoffN,
    Usually service codes are in the format *[number]#
    For instance by dialling *100# on my Lumia 800 I will get my calling credit with my carrier.
    Hope this helps,
    Kosh

  • Freezing issues with K8N Neo2 Plat & 6800 gt

    Well I get random freezing during games. Sometimes it freezes for 5-10 seconds then comes back, while other times it just freezes and the sound comes back but not the game.
    I had this problem when I first upgraded.
    K8N Neo2 plat
    1gb corsair xms 3200
    athlon 64 3500
    aslo have:
    420-30? antec tru power supply. I cant remember exact number.
    6800gt ultra
    audigy 2 plat
    Now I first posted my problem a while ago and someone told me to try chaning the HT to 4x instead of 5x. So I did and it worked. It worked for a few weeks and now the problems have come back.
    Any Ideas?

    Along with the above issues, I've also found that a lot of my gaming probs with the 6800 are due to it being a "bandwidth hog" & it's latency needs to be adjusted lower to enable the other devices on the PCI bus (i.e. sound card) to get enough bandwidth to function properly. This isn't noticeable until you start some heavy gaming with a lot going on at once...
    If your game ever practically chugs to a halt when a lot of sounds are being produced, this is the main problem. Here's a way & some notes on how to deal with it. Just like every "tweak" though, it's not guaranteed to work for everyone but I got noticeable benefits from it.
    - D/L (I got it @ guru3D) PCI Latency Tool & give the "Read Me" a quick once-over. Write down the values for your devices, in case you need/want to change 'em back. Most items are well labeled - the 6800 & your sound card will be what you are most interested in. I wouldn't mess with the rest of 'em, as they deal with low level system items that are best left alone. Unless you are truly an Uber Geek!
    - The latency for my 6800 listed as a massive 248 clks! For some reason, I've read that ATI cards don't default at such a large value, which might explain why people don't seem to have as many performance issues with 'em. Anyhow lower the 6800 to a more "reasonable" value, like 128 or 64. 64 seemed to work best for me.
    - Save the settings, reboot & test it out. You can experiement with the sound card latency too, in order to find what works best for you, but I wouldn't set it at less than it's default value (32).
    Hope this helps.

  • Does the 10.6.4 update fix the freezing issues with the i5 & i7 MBP's

    Since I am on the fence about buying a new 15" MBP I would be interested to know what effect the new update has on the latest MBP's and the freezing issues some are experiencing.

    The "freezes" that are mentioned in other threads here appear to be due to a wide variety of different issues. Looking at the relevant posts I'd reckon about one in thirty of them at the most are due to an unusual issue with a few of the current MBPs. The other 29 are simply the regular array of things that cause freezes on any computer - out of date software, corrupted directory structures, the migration of already corrupted software from older computers, duplicate or corrupted fonts, badly written third party software, the occasional shonky HD or RAM module, etc etc etc.
    THis is a non-issue from what I can see. Some people may well benefit from updating to 10.6.4 , but probably only because it replaces some files that have been corrupted for other reasons in the past.
    I certainly wouldn't be putting off getting a new MBP on the basis of the stuff here. Sure, some people will experience "freezes", but there doesn't really seem to me to be anything out of the ordinary being reported here with respect to the new MBPs. There are a thousand and one things that can lead to "freezes". In a few cases it probably is due to a hardware problem with one component or another. In the vast majority, however, it will simply be because of the common old "thousand and one shocks that silicon chips, magnetic storage and software developers are heir too"!

  • Connection difficulties with Lumia 800 and CK 100

    I have a Nokia Lumia 800 and an installed CK-100 car kit, the kit has been professionally installed and works as it should do ie it is switched on with the car ignition and can be paired with both my Lumia and my partners Samsung via bluetooth.
    The problem I am having is the car kit keeps connecting with the phone resulting in two beeps through the speakers as it confirms it has connected both the phone and player function.  This repeats every 1 minute and is very frustrating.  It does this almost non stop although some times after about 10 -15 connects it suddenly disconnects.
    I have found a way to stop this happening, but it is not ideal and certainly not how a hands free kit should be, as follows;
    Set the Lock function to its max setting (5 minutes) and tile to the Bluetooth screen, then by constantly touching the screen every 5 mins to keep the Bluetooth settings screen open it works.
    I have sent two emails to the Nokia help centre (both times it is clear that they do not understand the questions) and have phoned the help desk twice, on one of the occasions the help desk person told me to reset the phone (which clears all your setting, Apps etc) and it worked fine for 4 days then started as above.
    Anybody got any ideas? to me it looks like the bluetooth setting is doing something when it is in sleep mode.
    Regards

    Check whether you may have use your Lumia 800 on another PC initially so it has it's primary sync relationship with that PC.
    When you connect your Lumia with your PC and Zune starts select 'phone' and verify the sync relationship which is shown below the phone image. If this says 'guest' you will have to click 'Change Sync Relationship' to move it to the PC you are using.
    On any other PC you can remove the phone from the list of know devices through Settings>phone>sync options and click 'forget this phone for each phone you wish to remove. If multiple phone are known to this install of Zune you will see left and right arrows besides the phone image with which you can select the phone to change settings for.
