Lumia 535 Failed me

Bought Lumia 535 (Dual Sim) month back and on one bad morning when i removed the phone from charge display gone blank (dead display). Everything else is working fine, incoming call is coming, touch is working (hearing touch pad tones), but no display.
The catch here for me is, i bought this phone in Kuwait and recently moved to India. Authorized service centre dealers confirmed cannot do service as the warranty is in different region. Is there way to get serviced in different regions?

Sorry but the only options left with you are either send it back to the country of purchase if possible or get it repaired in India out of warranty thereby paying for the same..
BTW, it seems other users have had the same issue mentioned HERE

GPS not working in Lumia 535

I have been using Lumia 520 since its release and switched over to Lumia 630 Dual when it was released in India and for the same SIMs the GPS was working excellent. Recently when Lumia 535 was released I exchanged Lumia 630 for 535.While the mobile touch issues were addressed very well by the two updates -December 2014 and March 2015-I am a bit disappointed to find the GPS is not working properly as it did in 520 and 630 .When Here Drive + is opened, the green arrow appear and my location is shown but the arrow never travel in time over the map as I move in my car or walking and just freeze.If I go out of the app and return back, it updates the location but again the green arrow doe not move on the map along with my motion in car or any other vehicle.I wish to know if future updates will solve this problem or my mobile has any hardwear proplem.As I am very familiar with Lumia series since April 2013, I am sure that I am following the steps and settings perfectly.Please help me.I am in India and I am using Airtel SIMs.

Yes I have done all that you have mentioned.Also I have checked with single sim to make sure that it is not due to two sims.As Lumia 520 and 630 were perfectly locating the position in the same place where I am now living with same sims , I do not find the reason to be anything external. Also I must be a bit descriptive about the problem:
1.Once Here Maps + or Here Drive + is opened, after locating the position , the distance will display a random digit even though I have not moved at all.For example, after the app is opened Here Drive + will show distance anything random llike 500m or 1Km even if I am not moving.Only after closing and opening the app few times the value gets zeroed. This happens even when sims were tested individually as well in diffeent places in the heart of the city where mobile towers are available.Also, the distance calculated is most of the time wrong and on the higher side.But in Lumia 520 and 630 I have seen the distance displayed is always 0m to begin with and the green arrow travel with time over the map .But in 535 the speed used to be most of the time blank with display showing - Km/h
I must bring to your attention that when I bought Lumia 520 in April 2013 , its GPS performance used to get affected from one up date to another and subsequent update used to correct it .In fact Lumia 630 that I bought in Sept 2014 had GPS problem but an update that follwed made GPS very perfect. As I am a traveller all over South India, I was always using the GPS and it used to work exceedingly well without the network most of the time with good tower signal.
The update in March 2015 updated my maps as well. Even Here Drive + was also updated this year and the version now is 4.2.5905.1 and map is 8.30.57.115.
As I am using all the smart features of Lumia since 520, I am familiar with the operation as well performance of Lumia series .Many of my friends switched over from Android to Lumia ( 525, 630 etc) for the accuarcy of GPS in windows phone without using the internet which is a must in Android.
I feel that 535 is finding difficult to locate the postion co ordinates and so not working accurately. Even in a car the GPS fail to track the motion in time inside the city most of the time. Where as 630 GPS worked very well even inside AC compartment without any problem without mobile data and with just tower signal.
All the other applications are working very well.
Please help.

Issue in usability of Microsoft lumia 535 - Behavior of Key '- ' , on bottom right corner of home screen, is ambiguous.

Hi All,
I am new to this forum. And I may have incorrectly raised my concern here - over the usability aspect 'Microsoft lumia 535' mobile phone. Please help - to forward my concern to the correct forum in that case.
I faced issue in using the key '->' on bottom right corner of phone's home screen (scroll down on the home screen to use the key). Clicking the key '->' should ideally take to the screen to it's right where all the applications are listed. As per known
behavior of earlier phones of the lumia series like 630,525 etc.
However, the behavior is ambiguous, sometimes the click on '->' takes to its right screen, and sometimes it refreshes the home screen. And sometimes there is no impact of the click. The behavior is thus improper and provides bad experience in using it.
Earlier I thought this defect is specific to the phone I purchased, but further I analyzed other 'Microsoft lumia 535' - and the same issue was observed in all the other pieces of lumia 535.
Please let me know, if it is issue and is already known, or if the behavior is intentional then what is the reason for the same?
Regards,
Azmun

Lumia 535 not detected in windows 8.1 latest updat...

I just bought a lumia 535 and it will not install with any USB cable i have on my laptop , it has windows 8.1 up to latest update. Windows update doesnt show any updates available also not after reboot.
I downloaded the winusb phone driver from microsoft site and tried to install that manually and still it wont work
This is really a downer, since i expected a windows phone to easily connect to my win 8.1 computer
Even the cheapest android phone does it in an instant!
anyone know a way? else this phone goes back to shop because if i cant connact it i dont want it

Did you get a USB cable with the phone?
Use the USB cable that came with the phone.
Connect the phone to the PC. Turn it all the way off, hold power button and slide the screen down. The phone will turn back on and it will be detected, drivers should load.
If your operating system did not come with Windows Media Player, install the Media Feature Pack for your version of the operating system.

Accessing Amazon Music Library from Lumia 535

Greetings,
I recently switched to Lumia 535 from Android phone. For Android, Amazon had the Cloud Player app which let the users access their Amazon Music library from their phone. How do I access the Amazon Music library on my new Lumia?

Thanks!

Lumia 535 - All Settings

My girlfriend recently bought me the Lumia 535 from Tesco's Ever since turning it on for the first time I have been unable to go to all settings. From the drop down menu, touching all settings does nothing. Also, in the apps menu (on the right), there is no settings.
For two months I have managed but now it keeps calling people whilst it is in my pocket, as I can't put on a pass code on it.
Do I need to send it back to Tesco or is there an easier solution? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Darren.

Hi, darrensmith0410. You may try restoring the phone to factory default by peforming the buton reset.
Press and hold the Volume down and Power buttons at the same time until you feel a vibration (about 10-15 seconds).
When you feel the vibration, immediately press and hold the Volume down button until you see an exclamation mark.
Once the exclamation mark appears, press the following four buttons in this order: Volume up , Volume down , Power , Volume down . Your phone should now reset and restart itself. (It might take a while for the reset to finish.)
Make sure to create a backup to avoid data loss. If that doesn't work, you can recover the phones's software using the Windows Phone Recovery tool provided here: http://www.microsoft.com/mobile/support/recovery-tool/. Let us know the outcome.

Skype on Microsoft Lumia 535 freezes and stutters

Hello dear Microsoft, I am really happy with my Microsoft Lumia 535. Great phone, great price. Skype however (which is the prime application) really behaves bad though.It freezes and stutters all the time.For example, to open the app it takes very long. To see my recent contacts takes another 30 seconds or so. To type a message to a contact takes another 30 seconds and while typing it freezes and stutters again.The performance sucks, in short.Are we expecting an update soon? This is a really bad situation, where skype on other platforms runs like a charm, but on MS's own mobile platform, just sucks.... Hope this gets resolved very, very soon! Regards, Sijmen Koffeman

Hi, After I used the Windows Phone Recovery Tool (link:http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/how-to/wp8/phones-and-hardware/recover-my-phone) and restored my phone, Skype is running without any problems.Be advised that you should make a backup of your data and settings if you use that tool. Good luck, Si.
