Lumia 800 in India

So i have purchased my Lumia 800 from Carphone warehouse in uk.. They said it is unbranded and unlocked
it shows carrier as CV GB SW ID222 V08
i guess it is indeed unbranded and unlocked.
But when i installed Airtel/Vodafone SIM in India, it is not working AND asking for unlock code?
where will i get unlock code? can nokia care in india help me?

Did you put a PIN code on the SIM?
Did you buy the phone new or used?
Sounds like someone put a general country variant on a locked phone. That would not unlock the phone. Nokia Care should be able to verify whether it's unlocked or not. Contact them and provide the phone IMEI to them

Nokia Lumia 800 support missing from Nokia India w...

Can anybody please let me know, why is Lumia 800 and Lumia 900 models missing from Nokia India website.
Even the support pages for these mobiles are not available. Has the support for these models terminated ?
Also, i dont find options for Email communication / Online chat / Telephonic Communication available in Nokia India support pages.
Can someone explain the reasons in case you know any ?

It may just be an oversight as still available elsewhere:-

My Nokia Lumia 800 has two IMEI numbers. What?!

Hi Everyone,
Purchased a Lumia 800 (white) from Nokia Store here in Bangalore, India on August 2012. The phone was working fine till August 2013 when camera stopped working. Took the phone to Nokia Care. Warranty checked out fine and the camera module had to be replaced. Got call from Nokia Care three weeks later saying there has been IMEI mismatch as such warranty is now void. Reason- the phone has two IMEI numbers. What??
And funny, Nokia's story was true. IMEI number written on the phone panel and phone box differed from internal hardware IMEI number (which can also be seen from Settings>About). They say this can only happen if the phone was serviced earlier and component changed. Well, this was my first time servicing the phone and when the phone is under warranty why will I give for servicing to a non-nokia centre?? This shocked me, I could not convince Nokia people so I just agreed to pay for the repair. Now, after 3 days, they call up and say- "Changed the camera module but it is still not working. Maybe your motherboard is damaged! you will be charged 80% of the phones price if you agree with repair". I am yet to give them the 'go ahead'.
For no fault of mine I am going through so much!! Is it possible that Nokia sold me a device with two IMEI numbers?? Can anyone please tell me what to do?? Thanks.

Nokia wouldn't have sold a device in that state. It's highly likely that the retailer is to blame for this one. They've probably sold you a refurbished or repaired set as new.
If I was you I would go and speak to the retailer about this.

Broken touch screen on Nokia Lumia 800

I bought a Nokia Lumia 800. I also got an insurance along with it. Recently the phone fell from my pocket and landed on the top right corner to the floor. The so called Corning's gorilla glass cracked. I went to the nearest Nokia care and asked them to repair it. They took a month just to reply to me (after so many follow-ups) that they cannot do it in my city (I live in Pondicherry, India) and had to send it to New Delhi fo repair. Even in that they were not sure if it will get repaired. The following statement is from an email from Nokia Customer Care.
"They’ll try to solve the issue. If it is repairable, they’ll repair. Otherwise they’ll return your handset without repaired. If they returned your handset without repaired, they’ll charge rs.175 for transportation expenses"
When i asked them what if they cannot repair it, he asked me to be positive... So the problem here is in many levels
1) Why did the phone glass crack from a fall of such short distance? The transmission of impact was from the body directly to the glass....(photo attached)
2) Why is there not enough support from Nokia Lumia 800 yet from all the service centers?
3) I am made to wait for more than a month with a cracked mobile phone......

1) Gorilla Glass is 'Glass' and it can break/crack with impact, it is extremely robust, not indistuctable .
2)All service centres cannot supply full support everywhere, i have to have my Nokia sent away for repair in the UK if I have an issue and can take up to 30 days, so you are not being singled out and this applies to other makes as well.
3)See 2 and also if you have insurance as stated, and as it would never be considered a warranty issue as it was misuse by the user, contact your insurer, the issue is with them, if you paid for insurance, they are the people to contact ?
Good Luck

New update available for Lumia 800 (1600.2487.8107...

Hi all!
Good news! We have brought forward the software update schedule for our Nokia Lumia 800, and have begun rolling out the latest update 1600.2487.8107.12070 to India and Singapore. This update will gradually be available for more markets in the coming weeks and we will keep you informed via our support pages as well as via a similar announcement here on Nokia Discussions Forum, once we add additonal markets to the roll out.
As this is not a mandatory software update, not every country or network carrier will make it available to their customers. However, all features and enhancements will be included in subsequent software updates. If you have questions if 1600.2487.8107.12070 will be available for you, please check with your local network carrier.
The new Lumia 800 update brings the following enhancements:
Enhanced battery standby and talk-time performance
Fix for non-responsive screen when ending a call
Improved bass in audio performance
Soft keys illumination available for all screen brightness levels
Fix for rebooting in certain network conditions
As soon as the update is available for you, your phone will display a notification on your Homescreen or you can check for available updates manually by going to Settings > phone update. To update your phone, please follow those 4 steps:
1.   Install the Zune software (Windows) or Windows Phone 7 Connector (Mac OS) on your computer. You'll need this software to download the phone update.
2.   Connect your phone to your computer, using the USB cable that came with your phone.
3.   If the Zune software or Windows Phone 7 Connector for Mac doesn't start automatically when you connect your phone, start it manually.
4.   In the Zune software, click Update Now (in Windows Phone 7 Connector for Mac, click Install Updates). Make sure you keep your phone connected to your computer until you see a notification that the update is complete.
Best regards,
Yvonne from Nokia Care

’We will add more countries and variants to the rollout based on market requests.’’
There is no request, there is an absolute necessity! Patience is usually my second nature, but the whole non communication policy since the launch of the Nokia Lumia 800 is scandalous. When Nokia finally listening to their customers and responds quickly to problems and childhood illnesses. Like many others with me I'll be forced to daily to plug my device to the Zune software in the hope that Nokia (Netherlands) will be so kind to update my phone.
Nokia, listen, communicate (especially in the media and forums) and trade as a company that lives up to your image.

What I notice is after 3 hours (approx) of disconnecting the phone from charging socket battery is reduced a bit I do not know how to measure the battery remaining etc , are these apps the reason for drain out of battery quickly if yes then how do I disable them for a few hours and re activate back again.
Or I need some thing else to do to save battery?

To cut the long story short.. Refer THIS and THIS
There are a lot of applications available at the MarketPlace which will give you the remaining battery time..but keep in mind that these values are calculated based on the immediate use and are just indicative. (e.g. immediately after playing a game which is draining the battery at a fast rate the battery may show 5 hrs. remaining..but after that you don't use the phone for a long time and the remaining battery may show as 12 hrs..)

Bought a New Lumia 800 - But Dec 2011 packaging

Hi friends bought a Lumia 800, but got a Dec' 11 packaging instead?
Can I go ahead and accept it? I know I will have to apply fixes, upgrades from scratch, I am ready to do that just that will Nokia honor me warranty upto 22nd July 2012 given that I bought it on 23rd of July 2012?
And one more concern, I need to apply the Battery fix but I guess phone's software will select latest update of June 2012, skipping Jan/Feb battery fix, which I need anyways? How can I do it?
These are my whole concerns as of now.
Thank you
Shashank

On the contrary, India is an important market for Nokia, so I very much doubt Nokia views Indians with any contempt at all.
Who told you there was a "no refund" policy?
Regardless of refunds, your phone is still well within the warranty period and you are entitled to the same service as anyone else in any other country. For what it's worth, you wouldn't get a refund here in the UK or anywhere else in Europe after 2 months either, so it's nothing to do with the fact that you're in India.
Have you actually tried to get the phone repaired? If so and it wasn't repaired to your satisfaction, did you take the matter up with Nokia Care in your country?

Lumia 800 IS restarting continously | HELP ME

Can anyone help me in this.
My cell(lumia 800) is restarting continuously until the battery is completely drained out.
It will turn on and displays NOKIA and after that it is supposed to display Microsoft Phone buts it’s not booting up till there.
IS there any problem with the OS or with the primary memory (i guess memory where OS is stored)
the device is from other country and i will not get warranty in INDIA, when I checked with NOKIA CARE ,as per them it cannot be resolved it seems.
Somebody please help me.

This has been happening to mine lately, but thankfully after three or four reboot cycles it seems to boot OK.
I can't be sure, but it appears to me to be something to do with either bluetooth or wifi when this happens. It never happens when both are switched off. I'm wondering if it is trying to make a connection over BT or wifi too early in the boot process and this is causing a crash.
Do you have any active bluetooth or wifi hotspots nearby? If so try turning them off or move the phone out of range. As I said it may not be this but you sound desparate and it's worth a try...
Good Luck

MY LUMIA 800 IS DEAD. PLEASE HELP!

I have a lumia 800 , 10 months old. I had been listening to music suddenly it started to flicker and suddenly stopped an switched off. i tried to restart it but it not working. I tried many key combinations ,for 10 hours since it died. there was 98% charge left when it died. When plugged to charger nothing shows up, even i tried charging from my laptop.
I read many cases similar to mine. Phone still under warranty period, will i get it repaired or replaced as it is an internal damage.
Another problem is I live in India. Im not sure that i'll get my phone repaired or replaced for free.

If your phone is under warranty and there are no signs of liquid or accidental damage then Nokia should repair it at no extra cost to you.

Lumia 800 The Dark Knight Rises Limited Edition is...

I received my Nokia Lumia TDKR Edition today and I am shocked and extremely disappointed.
Its a Lumia 800 phone with a black plastic wrapup.(shockingly: the Mfg Date was Dec, 2011)
The Bat symbol doesnt look the way they showed in the adds. It was quite big and spreaded from one end to other end of the phone. (Actual reason for opting this phone is bat symbol...now, i regret and it looks disguisting on the phone). And there is a TM engraved below the Bat and there is a three digit number also engraved which ruined the look of the phone. In addition to that, i think the person who did the engraving messed it up and there were couple of unwanted engravings.
With much of disappointed of the outer look, I switched on the phone and realized there is no TDKR explicit content. I thought i ahve to connect to PC to get updates from Zune and installed ZUne and checked. No luck.
Nokia just lost one of loyal customers trust by selling their old stock by mocking it up with a batman symbol. Its pure and i wasted my money. I am going to approach consumer court. Lets see what they got to say.
note: I didnt buy this product from some local shop. I submitted my details on the website and booked it through nokia india times shopping. It took 2 weeks to deliver the product and its a great disappointment. My lil sis whom i am going to gift this may not understand that Nokia fooled us but i cant forgive. I ll post the pics soon.
Moderators notes : Profanity removed.

Bro i am with you and also another sad dissapointed owner of this **bleep**...i was so excited about it but when i recieved it today on my bday it was utter disappointment it's clearly not as it was shown and described in the images...has no content from the movie....and yeah any lumia can get app from qr code...whats the sense of releasing a limited edition...and as for pics of the phone here are they...

For this special promotion in India you might like to look at this previous post concerning this issue where OP received an invitation from Nokia with SMS code:http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nokia-Lumia/Free-play360-speaker-with-lumia-800/m-p/1571008/highligh...
If this promotion is run in similar fashion to that in UK, online registration could not be completed and it had to be actioned by contacting Nokia Care.

Multiple email accounts on Lumia 800

Dear All
I have a question about email accounts on the Lumia 800.
I have two email accounts, one linked to our website (pop 3) and also my personal Live account. The account linked to the website can only receive (it costs more and thus was deemed unnecessary). This system has worked well in the past, just reply or forward using my Live account. This has worked on my pc, laptop, Iphone etc.
Now the question, how do I choose which account sends on the Lumia? As I can’t seem to select between the two, I currently have no means of replying to or forwarding mail received in the ‘website’ account. I have tried messing around with settings in both accounts, but to no avail.
Apologies in advance if I’m just being an idiot but any help would be appreciated.
Clockit.

Nokia Lumia 800, Depleted battery Won't start up.

Hi, After being away for home for 5 days with no charger for my Nokia lumia 800, I foolishly allowed it to run out of battery, Unaware of the problems this can cause due faulty hardware, thanks to Nokia I returned home and plugged the phone into charge. I have allowed my Phone to run out of battery many times before in the past as you wouldn't expect any problem to come of it. After many hours of the phone being on charge I went to turn it on, it vibrated and came up with the phone providers image then no further, it stayed on this image for hours until I held down the power button and it would turn itself off. Not being to worried at this point I went online to the many chatrooms, helpline, youtube videos you name it to source a solution. Having tried absolutely everything, about 10 times nothing has worked to multiple button combinations, heating the phone up, plugging into PC with zune - everything. Now slightly worried as I really do want this phone to work and not have to buy a new one at a great cost. This is not a problem I have cause, it's a problem with Nokia, and the manufacturing of the phone, So if no one on here will be able to aid me in fixing the phone, once I return to the UK I shall take it into a Nokia store to get it looked at, which i won't be happy to do as many of the Nokia outlets are in unconventional locations such as Glasgow.
Thank in advance for any Help which is much appreciated,
Lambtj

You are posting to a user to user support forum here and not contact ing Nokia Care. If the 800 will not start anymore and you have done all you say you have done it's likely the battery needs to be replaced.
