Lumia 720 vibration too too low

I have a LUMIA 720 and its simply awesome.
But I have an issue.
When in office, I usually put my phone on virbation only. Now if I put my phone on the desk, the vibration is so so so so damn low I can hardly feel it, only when the phone is in hand I can feel the vibration else I keep missing calls.
Is there a way to increase the vibration intensity? I just keep missing calls
Thanks

I had the same problem with my Lumia 920 and it's now in Nokia Care hands to solve it (second time, because they fixed the GPS issue first and didn't do anything about the vibration).

  • Lumia 720 freezes and most of the times vibrates o...

    Hi,
    i bought lumia 720 on 7-7-2013, after 2 days while using some apps, the screen freezes, everytime i have to do a reset. One more issue is the screen keeps moving on its own with vibration, it goes to bing page and then goes to home page, this happens continuosly, i have to hold the phone still for a while & then it stops, i called nokia cust care and then told me to submit in Bangalore Nokia care center. Apart from doing a hard reset is there any other troubleshooting, im a technical person too but unfortunately i cannot open this phone. Is there any other way to fix this issue. Im very much afraid of using heavy apps as the phones freezes......

  • Scroll bar on Start screen can hardly be seen, too small/low opacity

    a vertical scroll bar on Start screen which appears by left-click on Start Menu/Button, is vague. i.e. too smal/low opacity.
    I hope it will be able to be seen easily. 
      [note] scroll bar is invisible on the above screen shot (actually it can be seen, but too vague)

  • Lumia 720 Jumping and Vibration issue.

    Hi, my Lumia 720, bought 10 days back is automatically vibrating and jumping between windows, to bing and home screen, and stopping at app switcher screen or home screen, and touch stops working(display and 3 keys).  It works only after I press power on/off. Initially its occurance was less frequent but now its more often.   Did reset, contacted nokia care and they reinstalled the OS.  Yet, its happening.  Please advise on this.

    My Lumia 720 which I bought recently suffers from a strange behaviour. It starts vibrating suddenly, wildly and on its own without any provocation and after jumping several screens in quick succession, stops at Bing. This activity lasts anywhere from 10 seconds to half a minute. During this time, everything that I have been doing, attending a call, writing email or whatever, stops and after this forced interruption,  I am forced to go to Bing. I have tried various steps like setting Display+touch settings to normal ( from high) and stopped Bing from operating on its own, but the problem continues. Is it a hardware or oftware issue? I have also seen that there are several users experiencing this problem and reporting this issue for quite sometime. In any case, Nokia should be aware of this and issuing the approrpiate patch to correct this situation. I wonder, Is anybody at Nokia listening?

  • Lumia 720 Low Audio Volume and % consumption on li...

    Lumia 720 has low volume when nokia ear phones are used. At 15 volume without the ear phones attached the sound is great and loud but when they are connected I need to increase the volume to 25!
    And also when I listen to music my battey drops 1% per song why is that?

    Hi Aseem186,
    Built-in speakers and earphones has a lot of differences when it comes to loudness. It is normal that the speaker is much louder than the earphones. However, the earphones can provide you a great sound quality as it has stereotyped sound.
    About your concern about the battery life when playing music, do you have open apps other than the music player? Are you connected to Wi-Fi or is your phone's Bluetooth enabled? 

  • Sudden vibrations and phone is hanging Lumia 720

    Hi. I purchased nokia lumia 720 few days back. Sometimes it vibrates even without touching and hangs. I also get a message that your device requires calibration. Please help.

    Hey all. My phone is not a brick. I did the hold down volume down, shut off switch AND camera button trick. Then I had to turn it on and do the old volume up, volume down, turn on switch, volume down trick. It's back up and updating after a hard reset.
    Earpiece still does not work. Camera is still a no go also. **bleep** Nokia?

  • Odd software behaviour Lumia 720

    I'm the proud owner of a Lumia 720 since July. I'm facing some odd software behaviour recently though. Without notice or any pattern, the current app changes to another one, sometimes four or five times while my phone vibrates like mad. It happens two, or three times a week, and there's no significant pattern but this weird "phone on speed" behaviour always ends in the Bing app. I thought rebooting was the answer but it doesn't. Does someone has any clue?

    Ugura,
    Thanks for your reply. I adjusted the touch sensitivity but that did not do the trick. Last night, I was already sleeping, suddenly my Lumina 720 played a song that I played before many weeks ago. That was quite odd too. With my phone connected to the charger, me asleep and there was that terrible noise from an old U2-song... And I could not stop it, nor could I lower the volume so I had to turn on my computer to find the keys to a soft reset and it was in the middle of the night.
    So I waited till this morning to reset my phone to it's factory-settings. Much to my annoyance- without any external app loaded, the phone went on nuts again. This time, while vibrating taking numerous screen shots... It's like my phone is haunted. A little poltergeist in it. I need some high-tec exorcism I'm afraid.
    Hope someone can help me further!

  • Synch vs backup query lumia 720

    I want to buy a lumia 720 but with only 8gb storage, can somebody please confirm how sky drive works? I know I can back up, but is that more of a synch - ie if I delete from my phone (to free space), will that delete from sky drive too?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    When you backup photos to SkyDrive they will remain there if you delete them from the phone. By default the resolution of a copied photo is lower though unless you sync over WiFi and have selected to sync in best quality.
    There are also apps like THIS to sync full res at any time. In this case as well when you remove the photo from he phone it will remain on SkyDrive. Alternatively you can copy the photos off of the phone using a USB connection with a PC or Mac.

  • Lumia 720 poor battery

    Few days back i got Lumia 720, flaunted by best battery reviews. But from day 1 i am experiencing poor battery performance. WiFi,data,nfc,Bluetooth,background service,sync all off, but battery still drains fast. After full charge it does not last more than 12 hrs. Even in one night it drains 10%for nothing.
    while other people say they need to charge around every 2.5days approx, i have to charge every 12hrs & that too without enjoying the phone apps. I believe there is some battery problem. Totally unexpected. Pls suggest anyone..

    My 4 days old Lumia 720 too shows some battery draining issues like others.
    After charging to 100% it shows 1 day 6 hours remaning, **bleep**? People are getting more than a day, like 2 in some cases. At least it should hold itself for 1 and half day where here I am getting "9-10 hours/16-17 hours of last recharge."
    I tried draining the battery to 0, but at 2% Lumia powers down. I did a complete charge and still nothing.
    Did a soft recent, nope no chages at all....still 9-10 hours max !!
    My approx usage:-
    WhatsApp for max 30minutes
    FB, Twitter, LinkedIn all combined a 30minutes
    2 to 2 and half hours of calls whole day
    Decent rate for messaging through message app
    Camera for 10-15 minutes
    No Games, if any then may be for 5-6 minutes
    Browsing for 20 minutes
    apps such as calculator, calender, note, PDF reader, Office for 1 hour
    Other small fiddiling (reArraging tiles, assinging pics to contacts, etc)
    battery Saver on
    Background app is blocked, the ones Windows have allowed me to block
    Brightness set to low
    Wi-Fi is off, though Data conection is on throughout
    Gmail is sent o recive mails ever hour, if any
    How on earth is it taking so much battery?

  • Few questions about nokia lumia 720...

    I recently bought a Nokia Lumia 720 and have a few questions I would like answering...
    Why do we need to link our phone to a microsoft account? What if you dont want to link your email and your phone contacts? My phone is now full of useless numbers of people I havent spoken to\want to speak to.
    Where do I report bugs that I find with the phone? I have found a few.
    Why cant I sign into Skype without linking to a microsoft account too? [same issue as before]
    It would also be good if we could assign custom ring tones... I thought this would have been a standard feature.
    Sorry for the moan... 
    Jimmy 

    As I said, you can either set up a separate MS account just for the phone or you can filter you contacts under People > Settings > Filter contact lists so that you see only the ones you want to see. Linking to a cloud account is extremely useful for keeping a backup and for restoring the phone if you lose, change or simpley have to hard reset it. A friend lost his Lumia while travelling abroad, bought a new one on the spot, found a free wifi network and had all his contacts, messages and apps installed and running within half an hour.
    I don't understand your last point - if you mean restart the phone when it is frozen for any reason, that can be done by holding both the Power and Volume Down button pressed for maybe 10-15 seconds until the phone vibrates and restarts. That is usually called a soft reset and you do not lose any settings or data except the date and time settings which you need to set again manually. Otherwise you can simply turn the phone Off and On by holding the Power button pressed.

  • Lumia 720 - screen feeze and keypad issues

    Hi,
    My lumia 720 has for a for a while now started to freeze when doing anything! Initially the phone seems to do weird things like the keypad pops up and srarts typing randomly then after a second or two the screen will just freeze and will not respond to anything. I have to press the lock screen button to lock the phone then unlock it to be able to use my phone again. Initially the problem only occurred once every week but now it happens every few minutes and is becoming untolerable. I really need to get this issue fixed! Has anyone come across the same issue and got it resolved. Nokia please help!

    Hi Abbas001,
    Sorry to hear this. Here are the troubleshootings that we can do on your phone:
    1. Restart your phone.
    Press and hold the Power and Volume Down keys simultaneously for 10-15 seconds. Release and the phone will restart.  If the problem persists, reset and restore your phone as instructed below.
    * Just a quick reminder, doing the reset will wipe off everything that you have on the phone. In case the phone is not responding anymore to anything, we can't do anything to save them. However, if your Windows Live account is signed in on the phone, your contacts, pictures and videos will be synchronized to it.
    2. Reset and restore your phone.
    Important: This erases all personal content on your phone and restores the factory settings.
    Make sure your phone’s battery level is above 50%. To check the remaining battery life, go to Settings > battery saver > battery info. If you are not able to check it, or the level is too low, charge your phone for at least 20 minutes.
    Switch off your phone, and disconnect the charger.
    Press and hold the volume down key, and connect the charger. An exclamation mark (!) is shown on the screen.
    Press the keys in the following order: volume up, volume down, power, and volume down. Your phone resets, and boots up. This may take several minutes.
    3. Update your phone software
    You may not be using the most recent software for your phone.
    To check if there is new software available for your phone, on the start screen, swipe left, and tap Settings > phone update > check for updates.
    See more information on updating your phone software.

    Im sorry I dont know how to start a topic, hope you all dont mind but really need advice.
    My boyfriend bought me a Nokia Lumia 720 for my birthday 6th of Sept this year. I had it only a week and when I dropped it and I smashed the screen. Instead of sending it nokia, I completely did the wrong thing and brought it to the local repair shop as I thought it would be done there and then and so the story begins.
    The technician had a look at it and quoted 50 to 60 euro for a new screen as the LCD was still working, I said fine so he ordered the part in and let me use my phone till it came. Week or two later brought it up and he said it would be fixed within the hour. I came back only to be told he had trouble getting it apart and it would not be ready till the next day.
    My boyfriend went up to get it the next day and he was told there was another problem, the screen and LCD were fused together so the technician said the part he got was no good that I need the two of them together and would be bout 90 euro. As the phone was in a million pieces I kinda didn't have a choice so told him that was fine and go ahead to order it.
    Another week or two went and I got a phone call to say he could not get the part he wanted so he had to order the hole front of the phone and it would be now 150 for parts and labour. I gave the extra money as I was really fed up and just wanted my phone back that I barely used. I waited and waited and the part finally arrived around the 24 of Oct, I know because I was fuming it wouldn't be ready as I was going to England on the 27th Oct.
    My boyfriend was in touch with them while i was away and it was suppose to be collected on the Saturday the 1st of November.I was really excited as I was coming home that night to my fixed phone but again it didn't happen.
    The technician told my boyfriend (after staying an hour or so and been back and forth to the shop) that it was still calibrating and wouldn't be ready till Monday. Monday came and as I was working my boyfriend collected it, I finally had my phone but alas it was too good to be true. The camera was not working and when I got my boyfriend too ring me (when he was beside me) I could not hear a thing. On the Tuesday morning he brought it back and told him the issues, the technician was full of apologies and said he would have another look, he updated or restored the phone and told him to bring it home and when it finished what it was doing everything would be okay.
    After the clogs on the screen went off I tried to switch it back on like the technition said but it never did, I even tried charging it but it was like it was dead nothing happened. I went straight back to the shop put it on the counter and told him to fix my phone that what ever he did its not working at all now. Again he was full of apologies and said he would take it home and see what he can do. My boyfriend rang a couple of days later and the technician said he is going to order a camera piece for it, I said I was not paying for it as the camera was working when we brought it up, he said he would "take the hit for it" and it will be 10 to 24 days delivery.
    I rang and talked to the manager saying I wasnt happy, he was also full of appoligies and said he would have a look at it for me also. Never heard anything more from him like I was supposed to.
    I got a phone call yesterday 2nd of January and the technician said the camera part was put in but it is still not working, he said there is nothing really more he can do. Im so upset because it was just a cracked screen everything else was working. 
    Long story short nearly 3 months  and 150 euros later my phone is worse off than I left it in.
    I need a little advise in what to do if he tries handing me back a broken phone. I am going to go to citizens information for legal advise but I also need some technical advise on this issue. Could it have been a faulty phone? Is everything that he has said about the parts true? Could he have broken the speaker and camera when he was trying to get the phone apart etc.
    Sorry for the length of this, and if you could get back to me with some advise I would really appreciate it, thanks

  • Lumia 620 - Vibration Problem

    Hey there,
    I just bought a lumia 620 last week and updated to Amber in last 3 days. Yesterday, accidently I found out that my vibration stopped working! It was working on morning, but from the evening it stopped for no reason!
    Now my phone doesn't vibrate at all! I'd installed a hardware test app too, it doesn't vibrate there too....Already done soft reset, no luck! Since I don't like to give to Nokia Care service (because the support in here is rubbish), is there any way to fix this? Is there any firmware update for this?
    Thanks

    There is no firmware update fix for this because it is specific to your phone. Perhaps something went wrong with the update. I would suggest you consider a full reset before heading to Nokia Care. You can do this from Settings>About>reset your phone . Remember to backup your data before doing this.
