Lumia 820 customise text notification

I have recently purchase the Lumia 820 and wanted to customise my text alert notification sound.As this is available on nearly every other mobile wonder if it is hidden. Going through all the user guides this is not possible..or is it?

You are correct in that custom text notification is not possible.

Lumia 820 sending texts with attachemtns

My nokia 820 will not send attachments such as a contact or picture. On orange network. Instantly get message can t send message Try Again. Try again does not solve it. Orange seems to think this is a Nokia/ windows problem any suggestions? Particularly interested in being able to send contacts as in the business card feature in older Nokias

I had this exact issue with my Orange pay monthly Nokia 820. Spent ages fiddling with the mms apn settings as per the orange/EE websites to no avail. In the end this is how I solved it -
- go to settings>mobile network>edit mms apn
- delete any existing apn's (if your phone menu says 'add mms apn' instead of 'edit mms apn' then skip this step)
- Go to settings>access point, select EE or Orange. This should automatically set up your phone correctly and away you go... Note: If you don't have access point in your settings menu, use your phone to scan the QR code attached to this message, this will take you to the 'access point' app, which you can download, and then it should appear.
If this doesn't work then it might be an issue with your account, in which case you will have to phone Orange

Facebook Notifications Delayed - Lumia 820

Hi all,
I am experiencing a very weird problem with my phone (lumia 820).
My facebook notifications at times work fine, but many times randomly alert me on the top of the lock screen (ring tone and all) of notifications I read or checked days ago. It is starting to bug me as I keep thinking they are notifications that are recent and actually need checking.. but they wouldn't be. I am always connected to a 3G network and never use wifi as it drains too much of the battery life plus I do not need it since i find 3G enough.
Please let me know about any sort of quick fixes i can do to try solve this problem. Also let me know if anyone else if experiencing this problem too!
thanks!

Notifications for FB can be sporadic.
Same thing happens if you dont read gmail,you keep getting notification.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
Now using the Lumia 1520

Lumia 820: can't open email+accounts in Settings

I just bought a Lumia 820 and want to to set up my different accounts for it but when I go to Settings>Email+accounts nothing happens, after going to a black screen showing the text "Loading..." for a few seconds, the text "Resuming..." comes up very briefly and then I am brought back to the Settings page. I've tried rebooting and soft resetting (vol down+power button) a couple of timers already but this doesn't help.
Anyone knows what could be going on?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Only other option is hard resetting (please backup all your personal data first), by going into Settings > About > Reset your phone.
If that doesn't work, then you will need to take your phone to your local Nokia Care point for them to inspect.

Nokia Lumia 820 issues after Lumia Black update...

Before updating to the Lumia Black update:
1. Was able to connect the Nokia Lumia 820 to my home PC using Windows 8.1 and it was able to see the device and files on it as well as sync music from Windows Media Player to the device.
2. Was able to connect to the Nokia Lumia 820 from one of my Office PCs using Windows 8.0 and was able to see the device and files on it.
As well as to manually install Windows Phone 8 applications or install the Windows Phone 8 applications via Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate from either PC.
After the Lumia Black update, Neither PC can see files on the Nokia Lumia 820 nor can any application send files to the Phone's Memory Card or Second Memory Card. (SD Class 10)
Very frustrated with the Lumia Black update. Lumia Amber worked just fine.
I haven't changed anything as far as I know on my Nokia Lumia 820 device to cause said issues nor have I abused the device in any way.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Thank you,
BillNew
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Simply wanted to add 3 new audio tracks to the Music files via Windows Media Player but cannot even connect the device like it did less than 45 days ago when everything was working properly.
All my music files are on the SD Card because the file space needed is more than the 7.3 GB on the base memory for the unit. (Something like 8.1+ GB at the present time of 29.8 GB... which is the formatted size of the 32 GB SD Class 10 card.)
When the Nokia Lumia 820 is connected to my home Windows 8.1 computer, Windows knows about it but cannot finish the handshake to see the device and the 2 memory areas on the device.
Have to determine which programs that I have installed after the initialization that I want to restore.
The problem at the moment is that turning off the unit loses ALL Music Album Data but the songs are still there. This seems to have been caused by Lumia Black Update but not sure if that is true or not.
Have a lot of stuff to backup before resetting the device. Perhaps could upload everything to SkyDrive / OneDrive then restore the data after a full reset of the device.
I have all my cell phone contact data backed up but would like to backup all text messages too.
I have 2 custom applications that I have developed but are not yet setup using the Windows Phone 8 Development License as released products... that will be done soon.
Cannot backup the latest pictures on the phone... not many since the last backup but there are pictures that are not restorable that I would like to keep.
Would rather not have to do a complete reset but may have no choice.
Thanks,
BillNew

Lumia 820 freezes

"Upgraded" to the Lumia 820 about a month ago from the Samsung Focus (WP7) and everything worked great for a couple weeks until the phone started freezing. Also noticed that once the freezing issue started, everytime I would unplug the charger the phone would play a sound even though I have the ringer off and vibrate on. I complained to ATT and got a replacement. Things worked great for a week, no freezing and no sound played when unplugging the charger. Then there was a notification for updates for approximately 6 items, and I believe this is when the problems occurred again. The phone freezes and a sound is played when the charger is unplugged from the phone like before. The phone freezes when it is in standby and I try to wake it up by pressing the power button.
Anyone else have this issue?

I have a Nokia 820 (T-Mobile), and have had this happen a few times. I've just taken the battery out for a few seconds, put it back in, and all is good. It's a little bit of a hassle, relative to other things in my life (like dealing with my spouse sometimes!), it's no biggie. LOL
I've heard of low expectations but the 820 is not a cheap phone and you deserve better. A phone which freezes in your pocket can cause you to miss calls. You should be able to use it as an alarm clock without wondering if it will wake you up. But if enough users like you consider it no biggie Microsoft has no need to fix it.

Lumia 820 crashing (?) frequently

Hi!
I own a Lumia 820 and I'm pretty happy with the phone but I have one issue.
Sometimes the phone just stops working. This happens when it's fully charged, when it almost has no charge, when it's been turned on for hours or days, I don't see any pattern, it just happens randomly and it's very annoying.
It never happened while I was using, only when the screen goes off after innactivity.
Basicaly the screen is black, and the phone doesn't respond at all to any input. I have to disconnect the battery, connect it again and turn it on again.
The phone is fully updated and has no other issues.
How can I solve this? It's pretty tricky to try and go to the Nokia store to activate the warranty since I can't really demonstrate the issue at my own will.
Thank you

But now I dont have the Amber updates... I try to update the phone but it says it's already up to date...
Hello MMaia, i think you do have the Amber update, but what you dont have are the Nokia uodates such as "extras and info" "glance" "storage check" etc.and until you have these it wont show up in "extras & info" that you actually have the Amber update. If you have the "Smart Cam" app installed try and open it, if it works it means you have the Amber update installed, if you dont have "Smart Cam" installed try downloading it from the store, if it lets you download the app this also means that Amber update is installed. And finally you should get a notification soon that that there are updates available,these will be the Nokia updates you are missing.

Lumia 820 MixRadio Oxicash Subscription Activation...

Hi,
I have a Lumia 820 which I bought last year in February. This year in Feb '14, my 1 years unlimited music download subscription expired.
I bought a coupon for Rs. 281/- from Oxicash for a 3 months unlimited download subscription. However, when I try to redeem the voucher purchased, I get the following message:
"There was a problem registering your phone for your unlimited downloads subscription. Try again in a moment - if the problem continues, contact Nokia Support."
I called the Nokia customer care and was asked to do the following:
a. Change my country to India in Text+Speech,
b. Delete MixRadio and reinstall
c. Delete my account from Nokia Account in Settings
I have done all the above and it still does not register me.
Please advise.
Thanks,

Hi musica,
I have only provided the alternate email id yesterday to Nokia Cutsomer Care. I guess they should complete the association in about 48 hours. I will confirm with them tomorrow and then try it out.
If nothing else works, I guess I will have to reset my phone and hope that works. From previous posts I am given to understand that once an account has been associated with the IMEI number, one cannot use another account
Nokia must get past this limitation as some people would like to pass on their Lumia to an offspring or some one else and that person then cannot use the Nokia Music service which is a very attractive feature of the Lumia range. I have used an Android phone, but am in love with my 820.

Lumia 820 battery drain after "Black" update

Hi all,
Yesterday I finally received the black update on my NL820. After applying the update successfully I charged the phone to %100. Before I went to bed I had:
Battery at %94
Wifi - Off
Data services - Off
Location services - Off
Bluetooth - Off
Battery Saver - On
This morning I wake up and it is unusually bright outside - the phone powered off, the alarm didn't go off and I overslept for work. I haven't touched any other settings after the update. Everything is the way I used it before. What is it that could drain a battery in the space of 8 hours from almost full to power off? I've had this happen on the same phone twice prior to the upgrade as well but then I thought I've forgot data services on or something. This time I'm sure everything was off.
Please advise.

I have been using Lumia 820 since 1 year and have never faced any issues. But after the recent "black" update... my mobile battery drains out within few hours after i charge it 100%. I have to charge it 3-4 times in a day ..
1. I dont have any GPRS connection.
2. I use wifi at home (only evenings). The rest of the day.. I use it only for calls and texts.
3. I have tried hard reset, but that dint help.
4. After hard reset, I dint update my mobile software.
I charge it till 11pm and when I wake up at 5 am .. I see the mobile is switched off and I cant depend on the alarm to wake me up . That makes me so nervous.
Please bring out some solution to this problem. It is so irritating to charge the mobile for so many times in day.

Lumia 820 & 920 treated as tablets

Hi, i have just recently started to use muse for mobile sites. I have created 5 sites and on my daughters Lumia 820 and my Lumia 920 all sites show as ../tablet/index.html. However with her old 3GS and my iPhone4 the same sites show as .../phone/index.html. This is using IE as the browser. If I use the google app to look up the urls then it only displays the full desktop version. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

The notification light using one of the three light at the bottom of the screen has been suggested to Microsoft. No idea if they will adopt it or not.
There is no low power screen saver. Large displays use a lot of power even if there is only a little shown on the screen. However, someone was saying the other day that there is however a clock app available in Marketplace that keeps the screen on to use as a clock overnight. I don;t have the name of the app but I am sure it wont be too difficult to find in the Marketplace. It will have a significant effect on battery life.

When on a call my email and text notification still come through how do i stop this

How do I stop my email and text notifications whilst making a phone call?

Well, Rich, here we are in 2014 and this is still a problem. Apparently, Apple doesn't care what we think about this annoyance.

Email and text Notifications when on a call

Is there a way to stop email and text notifications when I am on a phone call? I have a long email alert and message tone, and when I'm on a call and they go off, it's so loud and long I can't hear who I'm talking to.
They can't hear the alert but it goes on for so long they waffle on and I miss a lot of conversation. Why is this not automatically disabled or set to silent when taking a call?

Again,we shouldn't have to. I've been an iPhone user since 3G and its taken years just to get simple things that even 10 year old nokias can do. Since we can now use our own alert tones etc, they can't even get them to be quiet when on a call. I've no need to know I've received a text or email when I'm on a call.
Always seems like apple don't think things through in the rush to get their gadgets out. Surely this is an easy fix that could have been sorted by now, there are enough complaints about it.

I have iMessage on iPad and iPhone but text messages still won't appear on my iPad? I thought we were supposed to get text notifications on both devices?

Does anyone have the same problem? I want to get text notifications on my iPad like I do my iPhone but I do not. I have both iMessages turned on and have tried restarting both apps and resyncing to my computer

To get them on your iPad the sender will have to direct the message to your Apple ID and not your phone number.

My problems with Nokia Lumia 820

I was a big fan of Nokia until two months back when I purchased Nokia Lumia 820. It's been two months and I'm having tough time with the handset.
First it was the heat issue. I know smartphones are tend to get heated up due to processors. But my mobile gets heated up in less than 5 minutes when I play games like real football, wordament and even simple games. I thought I got a bad device out of the box. When I say heated up it's not warm, its hot and uncomfortable hotness. I can't hold my device until the heat subsides. I visited the Nokia care for raising the heat issue but they said they can't do much and updated my mobile to the latest firmware (1308) and asked me to check after the update and the heat issue is still the same. Just when I thought things can't get any worse it did. My mobile has visited Nokia repair factory already twice in less than two months of purchase. The first major problem occurred three weeks back when the display would be switching on and off randomly and finally the mobile got bricked. The screen went blank completely and the device was unresponsive. Along with that complaint I've again raised a complaint about the device getting heated up uncomfortably. 14 days after I submitted my device to Nokia care I got my device back only to find that the screen isn't responsive to touch in the middle within a week's time. The upper part and the lower parts are responsive, it's the middle strip that's not responding to touch.
I've again given my mobile to Nokia care and they have sent it to the repair unit. In two months of my purchase the mobile has spent more than 4 weeks at Nokia repair outlet. It is still undergoing repair in the Nokia repair factory. I had least expected this from Nokia.
Some of my friends who have windows 8 phones from Nokia haven't experienced any problems so far, not even heating problem. It's safe to say that the problem is only with my device.
It's two months old and I've got it from the Nokia priority dealer.
What'd you call a device which spends more than 40% of the time in the repair factory in two months of the purchase. Even the 3 months EMI's haven't been payed fully.
I've encountered lots of inconvenience after purchasing the device.
