Lumia 520 - Multiple concerns

I have a Lumia 520 and I cannot afford to connect it to the internet directly.
I only bought the phone because Nokia has free GPS maps.
I'd like to upload Here Drive maps onto my PC and then upload them to my phone via USB cable.
I'd also like to import my phone contacts via USB cable, I've downloaded them from my Nokia 6300 onto my PC, they are in .contact file format.

Officially, this is not possible and therefore a feature request …
Although you are able to vote at that webpage for this item, I recommend to feedback via Windows Phone » Menu » HERE Maps » Options » Feedback, because the HERE team is still with Nokia and was not taken over by Microsoft.
Inoffically, if one of your acquaintances has a Nokia Lumia with microSD slot, you are able to copy his map data …

Did you consider AkrutoSync? You need Wi-Fi (but no Internet) for that.

  • No WhatsApp in Nokia Lumia 520

    Why there is no WhatsApp in Nokia Lumia 520 ! Not in Windows Store for Nokia Lumia 520. Seven days back it was there.

    Welcome to Nokia Discussions, sanjaygoodearth.
    According to Nokia Care: "The WhatsApp app has been temporarily removed from the Windows Phone Store due to a recently discovered issue with how notifications are handled on Windows Phone 8.0 Update 3 (Lumia Black on Nokia Lumia phones). We are in the process of working with WhatsApp to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
    For your concern please refer to this thread.

  • Lumia 520 Explorer crashing

    The Internet Explorer in my Lumia 520 crashes sonetimes. When I'm browsing it happens that the explorer shuts down and closes all the tabs I had opened. I bought the phone last week and it's the first Windows Phone I've bought so I'm not used to those kind of phones and their possible features. It would be kind if you could help me out.

    Hi Shannia,
    Glad to see you here on the Nokia Support Discussions. 
    When did this issue actually start to happen in your phone? Do you only get the issue when browsing particular websites like YouTube? Does the phone show any error message before it automatically closes? Is your phone's SW already updated to Lumia Cyan like tehviluattorj's 920? Any additional details you'll provide will surely help the community find the resolution to your concern. 

  • Another Lumia 520 user without an equalizer

    I have installed the latest updates and now get the equalizer that flashes for the blink of an eye then disappears. If memory serves, the owners manual said that the lumia 520 would give me equalizer settings when the headphone jack was in use. Just my two cents but seems like this should be a simple matter, please fix this.

    Hi, smkumar0307.
    With regards to your concern about the equalizer of your Nokia Lumia 520, this feature is not available or supported on your device.
    In case your phone received an update for the audio equalizer which is the audio app version 2.1.1.1 (released March 2014), it only shows briefly the equalizer menu when starting the app but this doesn't mean that the equalizer support is included in your phone model. You may have noticed that the equalizer menu is shown for a short moment after which it disappears and the correct audio menu for Lumia 520 is shown. This is a normal behavior and there's no fault in the phone.
    Have a nice day!

  • Nokia lumia 520 will not start

    hi all not sure if anyone can help i just brought a brand new lumia 520 i have come hope come home turned it on and its just saying Nokia can anyone help please

    Hi  daisydoll,
    Thank you for posting and welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
    When did the problem start to happen? Did something happen to your phone prior to this concern? Have you tried removing the back cover and battery and putting it back in? Is your phone's software up-to-date? When was the last time that you have charged your phone? Is there any charging indicator whenever the phone is connected to the charger.
    Charge the phone first until it gets enough battery then try rebooting the phone again by pressing and holding both the 'volume down' and 'power key' until the phone vibrates. You may try removing the battery, put it back in and make sure that the back cover is properly inserted. Try to use different battery and charger to further isolate the case.
    If the above troubleshooting will not work, then you may consider visiting the nearest Care point in your place to have your phone evaluated.
    Looking forward to hear a feedback from you.

  • Can not copy from PC (win7) to Lumia 520

    last night i was about to copy a file from my netbook (win7) to my memory card that in my lumia 520, but everytime i tried to copy it, the explorer on my netbook became not responding and need to be restrart. can someone tell me what's wrong and how to fix it ?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    yes it is normal, the phone only checks for app updates every few days or so, so the updates will appear eventually. if you are concerned, you can search for the particulra app in the Store manually, and it will tell you if there is an update or not.
    as such, there is no option to manually check for updates in the Store. you can leave feedback over with Microsoft at http://windowsphone.uservoice.com

  • Nokia Lumia 520 offline maps can not be downloaded...

    Hello,
    I had downloaded offline maps earlier on my Nokia Lumia 520 and they worked very well. But after resetting my phone to original setings (which deleted all the previously downloaded map), I can no more use them. When I try to download offline maps, it gets stuck on 10% or something like that and then says "We can't reach maps library at the moment. Make sure flight mode is turned off and check your and mobile data or WiFi connection, then try again.".
    Tring to resolve this, I had already done following things-
    1. Again reset the phone
    2. Soft reset the phone
    3. Updated the HERE MAPS and HERE DRIVE
    4. Tried downloading it from settings > Applications > maps > download maps
    5. And lastly I was using WiFi for downloading and my Flight mode was off
    I need this feature working on my phone at the earliest.
    Please suggest a solution for this asap, NOKIA!!!
    Thank you.

    Hi, kanishkk. Glad to hear that you're now able to download your map data. Based on the information presented, the issue can be on your connection. If the same issue occurs, try to download using your cellular data to further isolate the issue.
    Feel free to post your concerns and suggestions on the most appropriate board.

    Topic: Mental & emotional harassment by Nokia Care of my City regarding lumia 520!
    I am Abhishek Rawat, residing at 101, Balaram Dey Street, Kolkata-700006, Mob:9XXXXXXXXX.
    I bought a Nokia Lumia 520(IMEI-358106053448414) on 8-8-2013, Bill No.- P/0813/00863 from Limton Pvt Limited-13 & 14 B.B.D Bag, Kolkata-700001, Mob: 9830111191
    2 Months ago i have given the mobile for Amber Software Update at Nokia Care near my house, Satya Telecare, 229 Chittaranjan Avenue, Kolkata - 700006 Mob:9831823566,9831313307.
    All was fine till 2 Days ago dated 17/12/13, my phone stopped taking charge then i went to a Nokia Care near my friend's home at 81A , S P Mukherjee Road, Kolkata-700026, Phone : 9831548088, they inspected my phone and after some time a guy came out and said my phone has been opened before and it is tampered, so your warranty is void!
    You will have to pay 1000rs repairing charge for it. As my phone is in new condition and in warranty, there is no question of repairing my phone outside Nokia Care, i m in a fix right now!
    I will be complaining to Consumer Forum(www.wbconsumers.gov.in) against Both the Nokia Care Centers (where i have given my phone for inspection) & also Nokia India that is you for allowing these dishonest offices of Nokia Care to fool and harass common people.

    Apologies, but we strongly suggest contacting your local Nokia support for any unresolved issues concerning the device or for any unpleasant experience you had with the Care Center.

    If possible, a visit to another Nokia Care Center to have the phone re-assessed is what we also advise.

  • Can't download music from MixRadio - Lumia 520

    Sir I can't download music files from mix radio on my Lumia 520 it showing that was a network issue.
    Moderator's note: We amended the subject so other users can easily identify and answer the concern.

    Congrats on your first post, bhatok. Are you able to log into your account via this link: https://account.nokia.com/ using a computer? How about the phone's browser? BTW, have you already tried signing into your account in the email+accounts? Are you also getting the same error message? Does it happen regardless of the connection you are using? 
    Hi, giridausa. Thanks for posting your concern. Is it okay if you could provide the exact error message? Are you able to register successfully with the music unlimited service prior to this issue? 
    We'll wait for your response. 

  • Which phone is better lumia 520, 620, 720 ?

    which phone is better lumia 520, 620, 720. Moreover when 520 and 720 will launched in India and when was 620 was launched & available in india.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Got this review of Lumia 720 at flipkart.com..an online shopping website in India..how much of this is true??
    i intend to buy a 720 but this...
    "I hate neither Windows 8 nor Nokia. But I really do hate their combination - Nokia Lumia 720. I own this phone for more than a month and now I really want to get rid of this. I want to dicuss only the cons of this phone, as all the pros (if there is any) will be ignored with the intensity of the cons.
    1. No dedicated folder structure. Nothing like a "Gallery" or "My Files". So there is no question of copying files from one folder to another because there is no folder at all.
    2. Its true than you can use a external memory card. But the only action you can perform on the files in your memory card is delete. No copy , paste or even "Rename". If you have to do any of these you have to connect the phone to a Computer.
    3. Yes, Bluetooth is there. But you cannot rename your bluetooth. Ok fine. What is there in a name! But what happens to the files you recieve via bluetooth. If you are lucky, you will find them in your "Saved Pictures" . But in most the cases you wont see your recieved files at all.
    4. You cant download a video file. Its true that there are you tube downloader applications. But you can view these videos only within these apllications . You cant save them to your SD card. Some may ask what is the big issue in it. But guys, these video applications use the phone's internal storage memory and eventually the phone begins to hang.
    5. The most funny thing I found in this phone is "File multiplication". Suppose you took a photograph or downlaoded a music file today. Tommorrow you can see 2 copies
    of it in your phone. The next day 3, then 4 and so on. But if you delete any one of these, all will be gone Dont think that any virus has affected my phone. Bacuse form day 1 its so.
    (Combining points 4 and 5 together and a previous comment. Somebody said its possible to download videos using UC browser. First thing , UC Browser for windows itself is a piece of **bleep**. It hangs every 1 minute. Second, if you download a video and export it your phone, sometimes it gets exported and sometimes not. If luckily it got exported, it begins to multiply as I said in point 5)
    6, The battery. With the internet and all the background tasks OFF, and with no live tiles on the home screen, the maximum time I got with the battery is 11 hours. If i turn all features on, it drains in 5-7 hours.
    7. You cannot open the PDF or .txt files present in your SD card. Only those PDF files you download via internet can be opened. Again you cannot PDFs you download in your SD card.
    8. Applications can be saved to phone only, not in SD card.
    9. I still dont know what is happening to my internal memory and what is occupying it. Anyway its full now. And only thing I could do is to uninstall the present applications.
    10. These comments are from my experience for more than a month. Today I dont have this phone to experience not bacause I sold it, but because its dead now. For any other phone you can try removing the battery, re-inserting it and restarting. But what can you do with this internal battery?????
    Again I want to tell you an awkward experience with this phone. I am a techie and has a habit of listening to music while coding. One day in office, I connected the Nokia headset and started the music. But music was playing via loudspeaker only. It was not recognizing the headset at all. I tried to stop the music. But none of the keys worked, Not the pause button, not the volume keys, not the back button. I tried to switch the phone off. But it didnt work either. I had to cover the loudspeaker with my fingertip for about 10 minutes helpless and suddenly the phone switched off. With relief I removed my fingertips and I couldnt believe what happened . Music was still being played from the Switched Off phone. Again for the next 2-3 minutes I had to cover the loudspeaker before the music stopped. I switched it ON again only after reaching home. If I had sold the phone that day itself. I wouldno have to keep a dead phone now in my hands."

  • Touch wake up not working in lumia 520

    Hi I have recently purchased Nokia Lumia 520 for AT&T. I have enabled "double tap to wake up phone " feature in setting under "touch" header but still my phone does not wake up after double or several tap. Thanks in advance.

    Hi, Concordtb.
    Thank you for posting and welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions.
    Where and when did you purchase your phone? What connection are you using to check for software update, cellular data or Wi-Fi? Where are you currently located?
    The "Double tap to wake the phone" feature will be available once you got the Lumia Amber software running on your phone. This feature is a variant dependent. Try to turn 'on' and 'off' the Airplane mode under Settings, then manually check for the software update again. Also, make sure that you have the latest systems on your phone. You may check this: Lumia System Updater.
    About your next concern, does it happen to all the contacts saved in your phone? Are you getting the same behavior on your text messages? Did you transfer those contacts to your phone or you input it manually? Try to do the above troubleshooting first and let us know if you will have the same thing after you updated your phone's software.
