Lumia 520 voice calling

I'm the new owner of a Lumia 520, and a very fine phone it is too.
I use the voice calling facility with my car's bluetooth hands free kit (Nokia CK-7W) which works well, but I have one little niggle with it. The initial 'say the name now' tone and the read-back confirmation of the name are extremely quiet through the bluetooth kit, almost inaudible in fact. The volume of the call itself is fine, which leads me to believe they are sent from the phone at low level.
Is there any way of increasing the volume of these notifications?

Thanks for the update, SonicBlue. Let's further verify if the issue is SW related or not. Try the following steps and see if the 'call' voice command will work:
1. Reboot the phone. Press and hold the volume down & the power key for 10-15 seconds until it vibrates and restarts. This won't erase any of your files, but you will need to re-set up the date & time settings.
2. Since the phone is already running Lumia Cyan, try checking if the system apps have already been updated as well. Go to Settings > swipe to applications > store > check for updates.
3. Try to use the speech feature using another language pack. This will help verify if the issue is related to the English UK language pack that you're currently using or not. Make sure that the phone's regional settings are correctly set as well. Some commands only work within supported countries. You can check this link for info about the availability of voice commands per country: Feature and service availability - Go to Speech.
Let us know the outcome.

NOKIA LUMIA 520: I cannot see my call log date wis...

Dear nokia support team and members,
I cannot view my call log date wise. If i receive call or If I missed a call I need to scroll down to the respective call entry like a treasure hunt in the call log history.
My brother has Lumia 610 which is a old version of wondows i.e.,7.5 mango where in he doesn't have this kind of issue at all. Being a updated model nokia lumia 520 should have this feature and should also expected additional features..But this is really disappointing ..
Please help me to solve this issue..
Thanks !

No, the date and time is correct. Even then the problem is same....

Lumia 925, earpiece audio trouble (voice calls)

Background: I am a T-Mobile USA subscriber. Previously owned a Lumia 710, then switched to 810 when it became available. Great products; I've been very happy with both. Two weeks ago gave the 810 to another family member and got the Lumia 925.
I love the 925. The screen is great, the phone is light, and the camera amazing. Except for one thing. The first day I had the 925, I noticed that the audio from the earpiece did not no sound right. While on calls, the earpiece had a nasty buzz to it, sounding like a damaged speaker. The audio quality while on speakerphone was perfect, so I could not blame T-Mobile's network. I took the phone back to T-Mobile and they replaced it, no questions asked.
The second 925 sounded great. The earpiece audio was clear, without any buzzing or audio glitches. I was a happy man and everything was great, that is, until yesterday. Now the second 925 developed a similar bad audio quality during calls, but only from the earpiece. The speakerphone sounds fine, and using a bluetooth headset sounds fine also. It is not easy to describe the "badness" of the audio but there is a significant decrease in quality. The audio level seems to be down; with the volume all the way up, you can barely hear the other caller. The audio also has a buzzy, muffled quality to it, almost as if it is coming out of a tin can, and it is not easy to understand the caller. I tried calling my old Lumia 810 and the sound on the 810 is just fine. The trouble seems to be only the earpiece on the 925.
This morning I went back to T-Mobile and they replaced the SIM card. I'm not sure how that would help, but they said it should help if this is a network issue. That was 5 hours ago and the audio quality has not improved at all. I have also performed a full phone reset, then reloaded my previous settings, but the problem persists. At this point it appears to be a hardware issue, but it is very odd that it happened on the first 925 right away, and on the replacement one as well, but after two weeks. Beside the bad earpiece audio the phone works great. The apps work as they should, and the camera is lovely, but if I first need the device to function as a phone.
I am debating if I should try a third Lumia 925. I am a bit reluctant, as I'm afraid that it might break again. At least now it is within the 30 day return period, but what if this issue happens later? I would love to stick with Lumia but these issues with the 925 are worrisome.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.

I'm having the same problem with my Nokia Lumia 925. Voice in the earpiece audio is otherwise ok but when the other person is saying the S-letter in a word the earpiece audio makes it sound like other person is having a lisp or something. It's really annoying. Same effect comes when other person on the line is inhaling or exhaling. There is this whoosh sound the earpiece is making on S-letters, inhale - exhale sounds and on other low frequency background noices. Phone was like this from my first calls after unboxing. ...
I was thinking how to describe my audio problems with 925 but you did it perfectly! I have exactly the same problems with the S-letters, inhaling, exhaling etc. which makes every voice call more or less annoying experience.
I was thinking to replace the unit but the longer I read this thread, the more I start to think this is "a feature" i.e. bad design and/or poor HW choices. That said, ff this is so common issue, I wonder howcome there wasn't anything about this in those several reviews L925 was subjected to when it was released. Or are the reviewers so busy in testing the 'smart phone' feature that they do not spend time to mundane stuff like voice call quality.
I love the phone otherwise; looks great, has fantastic camera, crisp and cleat display - anyhow, had I known about this, I would have left this to the store.

I was making a Skype call from my Lumia 925 yesterday and with Skype the earpiece audio was clear and there was no whooshing disturbing the call. So i guess the speaker is working properly in Lumia 925 but the problem might be in 3G/4G reception (or somewhere else) that disturbs the call quality creating this whooshing in a call.
Havent' tried myself but if this is true, this starts to sound like some voice codec issue. ...which would be strange since one would think that the same speech encoding/decoding implementations are used in all Lumias so why would there be problems specifically in 925.
The good with this option would be that it's probably possible to fix with SW update. Provided that Nokia is aware of the problem or better yet, interested to anything about it.

Noisy voice call on Lumia 720

I have Lumia 720 phone and most of the time there is noise during voice calls. When I use same sim in my old nokia 6233 it works fine. It also works fine on my wife's Lumia 620. I even tried getting new sim issued from Vodafone but still same problem.
Please tell me how to get rid of this problem?

Is it noisy for you listening or the person you are talking to?

N73 auto switch off during voice call

I know there's a topic about this auto switch off, but the reply didn't answer anything specific about this..
My N73 am using the latest firmware, the phone is superb, only if this problem doesn't occur.. It happen when I was in the middle of a conversation, and suddenly there's no voice on the other line, I tot it was my telco problem, and then when I was about to push the end call button, I only realise my phone has auto switch off itself.. Zzz.. This happen not once, but very frequently, and I'm puzzled cause sometimes I can chat for a very long time without a problem, and sometimes the auto off problem occurs many times in a day..
Anyone encounter this problem b4? Is there a fix to this? =(Message Edited by kaytse82 on 02-Jun-200707:18 AM

The best thing you can do is book the handset into a NSC for the handset to be checked out.

Amber update is not working in my lumia 520

sir,
i have installed new update in my lumia 520 .it installed fully and successfully but i cannot find of new features in my phone !!?? features like call+sms filter ,radio and so on.., how can i solve this problem.

Perhaps a more helpful answer is to install "Lumia System Updater". That app will allow you to check and update all the system apps on your phone (such as "extras+info", "about" etc.) that are required for the Amber/GDR2 update to be "seen".

Mobile network problem in my lumia 520

Once network gone, I have to Restart it then again mobile network come.calling proble occurs many times even network is dispayed. Network problem sshould be rectify.

Hi mbkrish,
Do you experience the network issue regardless of your area? Aside from calling, are the other network services working fine like SMS messaging and mobile data connection? Is this for a Lumia 520 as well? If so, I hope you're using a standard microSIM and not a cut one as this is what the phone is designed to use.
BTW, the reset that the Nokia Care Center recommended is the one under Settings > about, is that right? After the reset, have you checked if the system apps are updated? Go to Settings > swipe to applications > store > check for updates.
Let us know how it will go.

Timescale for firmware updates Lumia 520 ?

Can anyone explain why there is such a varience in which the same update gets released either from a phone supplier or Nokia.
For example I am with O2 in the UK. I asked about the Amber upgrade and the replies varied from "what is that I've never heard of it" to " We are not imformed of release dates so do not know" to a straight "no idea". to " keep checking in settings-phone-update"
AT & T have been selling the Lumia 520 for some time and their version has Windows Phone 8 build 10327 (GDR2) and Nokia’s Amber firmware update already on board.
I can not see Amber for example being different in USA and UK or Swaziland for the same phone.
So why such a delay
A very impatient

There is a difference between a sim,free (factory unlocked/unbranded) device and a carrier released version.
your challenge with updates when you have a carrier branded device is that the carrier usually has very few updates to devices. And, their firmware versions are different, which include bloatware.
it is either software they are paid to put in devices, or their own renditions of billing, WiFi calling, mapping, etc stuff. So, before they do any updates of firmware and push it out, they have to do their own version of QC whereas factory unlocked devices get updates when ever the phone manufacturer releases them, which is usually more often.
even,if you get your device unlocked, it will still require that the carrier push the update. So the care reps are usually going to very uninformed unless they truly are involved in the tech side and have genuine interest to learn more. From a corporate perspective, they usually are scripted and clueless, which for the companies sake helps them not to create anymore confusion with the customer base then already is there.
as for the varients of,different countries, good to think about the regulations each country has, as well as some of the functionality of the device. Some countries don't have 3 or 4g service, or MMS is different, or there are frequency differences or regulations on what can be done. This goes far more deeper than just having the language available.
hope that helps

No sim works for my nokia lumia 520

My brother gave me an Nokia lumia 520, and i have tried off all of the sim cards and some ask for a sim card code or something similar im not sure now.

Hi Rudeboii2811,
Welcome to our community.
Only the network provider where the phone is locked with can unlock the phone. We suggest contacting them regarding this and the cost of it.
Have a good one!

Nokia lumia 520 screen zooms in too much

I purchased Lumia 520 about a week ago but after two three days the problem started. The lock screen zooms in so much that it is impossible to attend any incoming call also it is impossible to see the incoming number's digits because they are so much zoomed in that they just don't fit on to the screen. Everytime this problem occurs,I simply restart the phone and it gets fixed up but I can't do this everytime ad this is very inconvenient to. Please help me to get rid of this piece of junk.

There is a very simple solution to this problem and explains why my phone screen is always enlarging. Instead of restarting the phone, which I hated doing all the time, simply double tap the phone using 2 fingers in the middle of the screen. I guarantee this will work and will return your screen back to it's normal size. I hope this helps!
