Lumia 1520 unlock code

I have tried to get unlock code for my Lumia 1520 through at&t and unlocking company, but they could not find it. What should I do? Others' Lumia 1520's unlock code could be found easy. However, what happen to my phone?

hi mate,
are you referring to unlocking it so that other network's SIM cards can be used on it? your network carrier should be able to provide you with this information. if they are not being helpful, then you can try your nearest Nokia Care location instead to see if they can assist.

Lumia 920 unlock code

I bought a sim free lumia 920 from phones4u yesterday.Then I come back home , insert my sim card then it shows this: This SIM card can only be used on specific networks. Contact your customer service centre for the unlock code.
Why? Is it means I have to use EE even my lumia 920 is a sim free version?

I seem to be having the same issue, the surprising thing is P4U store staff had no idea! I've called EE and they won't unlock the phone unless it's been on their network for 3 months and at a cost of £24
How can they do this? Surely there must be a legal get out of this? My contract is with P4U and I have no affiliation to EE, but my phone is somehow locked to them an unusable - NOT FAIR.
Nokia are going to lose a lot of customers over this, and I really don't think they are in a position to be selective about customers.
Consumers want choices - taking this away from individuals (which is what WP8 is about) is only going to cause bad publicity for both EE and Nokia
At the end of the day I am going to have to take the phone back for a full refund - which isn't what I want to do :-(
A copy of the web chat i had from orange
Halobolola: would i be able to get orange to unlock my mobile
Andrew: Normally the phone you get will be unlocked only.
Andrew: But you need to confirm this from phones 4 u only whether the phone is unlocked or not.
Halobolola: all the nokia 920's are locked to the EE umbrella
Halobolola: and they are locked to ee
Andrew: No worries.
Andrew: You can visit your nearest Orange store and they will do the need full for you.
Halobolola: okay, im assuming the ee shops can do this, as there are no orange shops around me
Halobolola: any idea on the cost of the unlock?
Andrew: Yes, you can visit EE store as well.
Andrew:As per my information this will cost you £20.42.
So from that you can infer that you do not need to be with them for a certain amount of time.

Unlock code for Nokia Lumia 521

Need unlock code for Nokia Lumia 521 bought in USA to use in Europe please.

Hi, ToT2.
Welcome to the forum.
Your phone was sold at a subsidized price as part of a network package. Whether you brought directly from the network operator or from a 3rd-party retailer, the price you paid was subsidized by the network operator in return for using their services. Only the operator concerned can legally provide the unlocking information to you. It is possible that your network operator may charge a fee for this.

Lumia 1020 SIM unlock code no longer accepted afte...

I am the original owner of an AT&T Lumia 1020. At some point AT&T sent me a SIM unlock code on my request, which allowed me to use a T-Mobile SIM without any problems. After a few months I sent this 1020 to a Nokia repair center for warranty service because of unstable reception. I received the repaired phone, and the reception seems to have been fixed. But..
After receipt I found that the phone had been re-locked to AT&T. The IMEI shows up as being the same as before (makes sense), but the old unlock code no longer works. Contacting Nokia at the time they told me, sorry, talk to AT&T. Unfortunately AT&T sent me the exact same unlock code as they had given me before (also makes sense, it's the same phone), but it doesn't take.
My questions;
- am I making some kind of obvious newbie mistake?
- can a repair or component replacemetn change some info in the hardware that prevents unlock?
- will unlock services find the same non-working unlock code if I try to have them unlock it?
Thanks for any help!

I see. Thanks for sharing your experience, Joe1020. Have you coordinated this with your network provider to see if they can provide you another code? Let us know how it goes.

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.

Nokia Lumia 1520 Issue

Hi , I had issues with my new nokia lumia 1520 and the issues are as follows: 1)Touch and display problem and screen flickering and doesnt let me use any app on the phone and even if im trying to unlock my phone, it inputs its own password and locks the phone again. 2)Apps not functions as if i click one app another app opens 3)Phone hangs 4)Phone gets heated up rapidly with usage of camera 5)Music volume control issue as with full volume, the phone is still not loud enough at times 6)Paint behind the phone is pealing off and Customer care people (Marathalli Nokia Care) took the phone and finally says that my screen guard is causing all these issue. whereas i was using this phone for 1.5 month without issues untill i updated it to latest firmware 1028.3562.1402.0001. please provide your views as to what can be done next as this phone is just 1.5month old and I have spent a lot on this phone?

Remove the screen guard and take it back to Nokia Care, so they will not have a stupid excuse to refuse repair.

Nokia Lumia 1520 - Screen Brightness Problem

I have two Nokia Lumia 1520.
Both of them have the same problem. I will explain the problem to you in detail and before that let me assure you I am a Windows Phone long time user , have been part of the development , developed several apps for the platform and I have used Lumia 800 , 720 , 920 , 925 and now 1520. So I am well aware of all the settings , sunlight readability , automatic brightness etc. This problem is not due to any of these , I can assure you
Now the problem ,
I set the automatic brightness option OFF
I move the brightness to HIGH
Then I lock the phone
When I unlock the phone , the brightness drops by 10% suddenly without any intervention
This problem happens sometime. Some days I see this problem , some days I don't and there are few days where I see this problem very heavily.
I purchased another 1520 and it has the same problem. I am very sure , from my experience that this is a firm ware issue. This is NOT a hardware problem , but a serious problem from your software end. It is prudent that Nokia recognizes this problem and finds a solution to this. Interestingly , I am not the only one who is facing this problem , the whole globe is facing the same problem and for such a pricey phone , this is a frustrating experience - very frustrating. I am sending some links , which will show the problems users are facing:

The phone is rock solid and amazing except this irritating problem.
I have only few days within which I can request a exchange from the merchant. So if any Nokia official can confirm that a software fix is on the way , it would be super helpful
Nokia , please help !

I have Nokia Lumia 1520 Black.
I have also been facing the same problem with screen brightness.
The problem occurs only when the Brightness is in Automatic mode.
--> When the Brightness is set to Automatic mode & take out from dark location to bright location the display turns out to weird grey color.
--> And then if the brightness is set to low, medium or high display comes to normal.
Is this issue related to the hardware or software.
If it is related to the Software will you be able to fix it ? or else How about the replacing with the new one ?
Awaiting for the response.

Nokia Lumia 1520 Overheating & Battery Drain after...

Hello,
I've been experiencing an intermintent problem with my Nokia Lumia 1520 (AT&T, 16GB model) where my phone overheats and the battery drains. The problem started after I upgraded to Windows Phone 8.1 and Lumia Cyan. As of now I haven't figured out a good step by step method to reproduce the problem on demand however I have noted that when this problem occurs and I wake the phone and unlock it the Start screen shows a never ending or unusually long "Loading" message and my phone will overheat and drain the battery. So far the only way to mitigate the problem is by shutting it down manually or performing a "soft" reboot of the phone. Afterwards the problem gets resolved and the phone resumes normal operations after rebooting with the phone returning to a normal temperature and battery drain rate that is consistent with the use it is being given.
Given that I don't know anyone else carrying a Lumia 1520 has anyone seen something similar to the problem I am describing on this post with their Lumia 1520 unit after updating to Windows Phone 8.1?
So far the only big resolution step I've taken is to perform a complete phone reset and not recovering the phone from my back ups, effectively making it a "new" phone in terms of settings and software conditions.
My theory for this problem is that it is software driven as an overheated phone and a stuck "Loading" message instead of the Start screen after unlocking the phone indicates that a software process (either OS or separate Application) may be behind the issue.
Thanks for any assistance on this matter!

Did not work unfortunately... But I have resolved my overheating and battery drain issue...
CORTANA is the culprit and needs to be unpinned from the start screen.
Here is the process if CORTANA is piined already..
1) Unpin CORTANA
2) Go to "Settings.. Applications and open Cortana
3) Turn off Cortana
4) Phone will RESET
5) Go to "Settings.. Applications and open Cortana
6) Turn on CORTANA
DO NOT PIN TO START SCREEN
7) Swipe your start screen over to your applications
8) select CORTANA and allow it to set it self up again.
Now CORTANA is still accessible by the Search icon or from your application menu.
Now your battery.. Before the update my battery was reading "1 day, 14+ hours"
After update After recharge I was getting 14 hours then it would start draining.
After taking CORTANA off the start screen my phone stop getting hot near the camera (Upper left) and after 2 days (Battery cycling) my battery has returned back to reading "1 day, 14+ hours"
My assumption - The matter will be resolved with the Lumia Denim update coming later this qtr.
When that arrives my understanding is CORTANA is off BETA in US. Some additional Firmware tweaking, along with the camera updates and more.. Which "SHOULD" resolve this battery drain & over heating with CORTANA
Per my experience, I believe you're right that Cortana is the culprit for the problem described by the original poster. I unpinned Cortana from my start screen 6 days ago, and so far so good. I have not had a recurrence of that problem. I did not turn Cortana off and then back on again though. I just unpinned it, and that seems to have done the trick.
I'm also hopeful the Windows Phone 8.1.1 and Lumia Denim update will fix this since Cortana will be off Beta in the U.S.

Nokia Lumia 1520 - Bluetooth and Data Connectivity...

Hi - i recently updated my Nokia lumia 1520 with a new firmware that Nokia tool told me being available. after that i have consistantly having bluetooth connectivity issues and Data connectivity issues.
i have a Jabra Clipper bluetooth headset which . i am no longer able to pair it. it detect and says jabra clipper, then starts pairing, then simply says couldn't connect.
if i have wifi on, if i go out of range of the WIFI signal, my data connection stops working as well. this is 100% of the time. i have to reboot my phone to get data connectivity back.
Its on Lumia Cyan
manufacturer name: RM-937-im_mea3_1019
core build id: 7030.80
bsp release: 2061.0066
applicatoin versoin: 3.11.2.1
build creation date: 7/8/2014
from Nokia software recovery tool:
Product Code: 059V479
Software Version: 02061.00066.14253.40002

Because I am just an end-user like you and I do not have your hardware combination here, I can only give general advice. Could be a new interoperability issue between these two devices, introduced with Lumia Cyan. Could be a old wrong pair-key. Or could be interfering between your Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (Bluetooth Adaptive Channel Hopping). Therefore, let us start with the Bluetooth part:
on the Nokia Lumia 1520, Settings » Wi-Fi » Off (to avoid any interference)
on the Nokia Lumia 1520, Settings » Bluetooth » On
(status: paired) tap and hold your Jabra CLIPPER » delete (if paired already)
on the Jabra CLIPPER, press and hold the multi-function button until the indicator light is solid blue (approximately 6 seconds) to activate the paring mode
Your Bluetooth headset should appear in your phone now. After you tapped on it, it should be paired successfully. Does it?
If not, start over again and between step 1 and 2, power off both Jabra CLIPPER and Nokia Lumia 1520.
If it still does not work, start over and between step 1 and 2, please hold volume down + power until the Nokia Lumia 1520 turns off (soft reboot; do not forget to set your date/time afterwards).
If it still does not work, start over and between step 1 and 2, turn off your Wi-Fi access point.
Does it work now?

Nokia lumia 1520 loud speaker grinding sound and w...

hi,
my nokia lumia 1520 has been making sound grinding sounds which can only be heard if you put your ear close to the loud speaker. i emailed the company that i bought the phone from and this is what they said:
"for this type of issue, you can do a Master Reset on your phone (please take note that by doing this all of your data will be erased). If the problem persists, kindly go to your nearest Nokia service center to have it checked. If it's still under warranty, any repairs will be free of charge. If it's NOT under warranty, please get the code from the service center and forward it to us through [email protected] so we can review the charges (subject for approval) and give you a refund for it."
i did as they said but when i went to the nokia care centre, since i live in uk and the phone is from dubai they said that its out of warranty so i asked them for a code as the company said to me but nokia care team had no idea what i was talking about. i showed them the email and nothing
so i was wondering if anyone can help me out
id really appreciate it
thanks

Hi thedeepsleeper,
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
Are you still having an issue with your Lumia 1520? If yes, did something happen to your phone prior to the issue? What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far? Does it happen only when you put it on a loudspeaker? How about when connecting your earphone to your phone?
If you would like to send it for repair and since there's no international warranty, we suggest sending it to a Nokia Care Point in Dubai instead. To know more about the difference between the warranty in the UK and in Dubai, see these links:

Current issues with my Nokia Lumia 1520

Hi all,
I just wanted to list the current issues that I am having with my Nokia Lumia 1520:
- Phone freezing and restarting on double tap
- Click on scroll
- 256 color when unlocking the phone (need to turn off the screen to resolve it)
Do you think I should send it for repair or do you all have those issues?
Thanks!

I did a hard reset many times, but it fix the other bugs than click on scroll.
I updated to GDR1 and it helps to have folders for the click on scroll issue.
Had only 1click on scroll so far...

Nokia Lumia 1520 - Getting a replacement/swap phon...

I bought a black color lumia 1520 in december , new delhi, India.
I had no serious issues while using it but when i installed microsoft solitaire and just played it for 5-10mins the left upper back side of the phone felt really hot. It was really uncomfortable.
Few days later i tried Asphalt 8 and had 3G turned on, same issue. Few updates for phone came along (extras and info etc) still the problem was thr.
I thought its just because of the games and high end specs of the phone but whole january i faced the same issue.
In mid february i went to nearby nokia care center and got my phone checked, they too tested it using wifi and some other checks and said they need to send this phone to other center or thr office. They gave me a job sheet, noted down the concern of heating issue. Later they called me up after few days and said we will be giving you a replacement for same. Black color wasn't available , only yellow. I requested for white and i am still waiting (a week now) .
Questions:
The heating issue is normal to 1520?
Replaced phone will be a refurbished phone or a new one?
How to check if the replaced one is new or a used one? Any codes to check manufacturing details?
What document they will provide me at the time of replacement?
Hope this thread will help others as well.
Regards,
Sid

Thanks for the quick reply
The nokia care center owner told me it will be a new device but not a retail device and he clearly mentioned it wont be a refurbished one as well.
They get tax free phones that are provided to users for replacement which doesnt comes with accesories.
They get 10-20 phones in a box. So it won't be a seperate box packed phone.
My main concern is not ending up with a used phone or a demo one.

Lumia 1520 Crash/Rebooting

Hi,
I have a new unlocked Lumia 1520. When I went to my phone operator for a new SIM, they advised their testing had shown the phone crashes to a restart when it has their SIM in (it was fine otherwise). This is the exact behaviour I have seen.
It seem that mostly the crashes occur when moving between 2G and 3G (we dont have 4G here yet), although, infrequently it will crash to a restart when just on 2G (or 3G). It seems less frequent when the internet APN is set to CHAP, but I cant be sure of this.
The firmware is fully updates, all the apps are fully updated etc...
Has any one else experianced that, or anything similar, and any idea on solutions. I really like the phone, so would like to keep with it if possible.

I feared that may be the case, I was wondering, is there any way of getting a crash report out of the phone, I am in contact with the Operator technical team, and it may help them.
As an aside, the non 2G/3G switching crashes seem to have been resolved by removing the Nokia App folders app.

Lumia 1520.1 RM-937 Bluetooth and Wi-FI

Hi,
I have an unlocked version of the 1520 RM-937 which i am using with ATT. I have selected 3G to be my highest connection speed.
I have couple of issue, the major one being bluetooth. I have a Nokia BH-121 and built in Car Bluetooth, but both have an issue reconnecting. They pair just fine but wont reconnect automatically and need to be paired again. When they are connected, they work flawlessly. But the reconnection after pairing does not work even once. My phone has the device in the list, i click on it, it tries to connect and they the device disappears and reappearas and says Tap to Pair.
Also the wi-fi fails to connect to a network until phone is restarted. I also experienced this with the Lumia ICON as well.
Besides that everything works fine. I love the phone.

Got the Lumia CYan update yesterday hoping that it would fix my bluetooth problem. I have Cortana on my Hong Kong country variant but still bluetooth issue is not resolved.

Please help.
