Lumia 900 UK Release Date

Any news on a release date for the Lumia 900 in the UK, networks and pricing?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It's 21st May.
Amazon says that the Lumia 900 will be available late June 2012.
Phones4U say that I can only have the phone in White NOW as they have exclusivity until the end of May.. Depending on the store, I can buy SIM free, but only in white. I'd like Black.
What happens between end of May and late June????
I can't understand why getting a phone released and ensuring (potential) customers understand the timelines.
Apple do it all very quickly and end ensure that hardware is available SIM free at the same time as "deals" from MNO's and their resellers. Which is probably a reason that they have massive amounts of chatter. I.E. There is something to talk about.

  • Nokia LUMIA AMBER update release dates????

    I'm dying for lumia amber update for my 820.Microsoft release its GDR 2 update.but i can't download it to my phone,,coz nokia did't launch it.please hurry n release the AMBER UPDATE as soon as possible.I'm really curious about it.PLEASE RELEASE IT ASAP

    The Amber Update was available TODAY for any WP8 phone but once NOKIA got wind of it they shut it down fast. They will leave us 810 owners in the dust EVEN thought those who downloaded the newest version on their 810's
    HAVE NO issues whatsoever. NOKIA wants it to be exclusive to just few models and not all WP8's
    And that's too bad  810 owners buy a Lumia 810 and 5 months later NOKIA won't provide updates. Nice.

  • Nokia Lumia 900 Data Counter and People Tile

    Is there a data counter on the Lumia 900 that I can't find? I've tried to call the 3282 data number, and it always tells me I'm at 0 even though I know i've been on the data network and not wifi.
    Also, can someone explain to me how much data something like the people tile/email account setup uses? I've never understood apps like that coming from suuper old phones. Is it constantly checking your email/facebook? On some time interval? I'd really like to set up facebook and such with the people tile because it seems really nifty, but I don't want to go over my 2gb plan. I just don't terribly understand how it all works, and i'd be willing to try it out if I could see how much data i'm using..but that goes back to my first question...In the past when checking email/facebook I'd always just use the internet browser on my old Nokia e71x, and it wasn't giving me updates in real time like I know this guy is capable of. I'd like to use it, I just don't wanna eat up my data plan. Thanks for any wise words!

    The email setting can remain always-on and email arrives instantly like a Blackberry if you set the synchronization settings to "as items arrive" for the email setup.  There will also be a very small data usage checking for changes on various Windows Live services such as Calendar for changes so it can sync the data to the phone, or vice versa.
    The People Hub tile uses existing picture thumbnails already stored on the phone from your contacts profile pictures and Twitter and the first profile picture it finds on your friends profile pictures on Facebook.  Once the thumbnails are on the phone it doesnt use any more data.
    It doesnt use any data to check for Facebook or Twitter until you go into the People Hub and swipe the screen into the "Whats New" section then it displays new Twitter and Facebook posts which have happened since you last checked it.  Although if you have set Twitter and Facebook to email you when you receive a mention or interaction and you have your email set to receive messages instantly then you will have realtime alerts for those important things.
    When you swipe to the "All" section of the People Hub and click on your picture it then gives you the option to post a message to Twitter / Facebook or Windows Live all at the same time, or selecting each checkbox for individual social networks if you only want to post a message to one or two not all.  In this section you can also Check-In which places a Bing Maps location of the place you are using the GPS system.  The Messaging system is persistent always-on and displays any contacts that are online on your Facebook chat and Windows Live Messenger if you have set it up, which when you receive a message is text only so uses very little data.

  • How to transfer data from Lumia 900 to 820

    Hi,
    . I'm currently using a Lumia 900 and have purchased a Lumia 820.
    I tried the data transfer app provided, but the 900 refused the connection. Please let me know how to get the data transferred.
    Thanks
    Krishnan

    Before you start, ensure bluetooth is enabled on both your 820 and the other phone.
    Say you want to share a photo. Now goto Photos>albums and select the photo you wish to share. Tap the 3 dots>share>bluetooth>select device you want to share to. Then you need to accept transfer on the other device.
    If you were sharing it with another Lumia 820 or 920, the whole proces could be simplified by using nfc and just tapping the phone together.

  • Release date for Lumia 920 in Finland/Sweden?

    I heard someone said 1 November, but is that correct?

    There is no official release date for the Lumia yet. WP8 will be launched on October 29 though so we can expect phones shortly after that. November 1st sounds like likely date (even though it might be in a limited scale).

  • Lumia 900 Various Issues

    I recently purchased a white Lumia 900 this past weekend, and just wanted to go over some concerns/issues I've had with it thus far.  I was thinking about doing a return/replace with At&t, but it seems that the issues may vary.  I'm hoping many of these can be resolved with a software update.  Just FYI, I already ran the update that was released on 4/16 and have also reset the phone a few times since then.
    Display:
    1.  The display has a purple hue (most noticeable on gray backgrounds) when set to low brightness.  This is mostly an annoynace since my wife has the same phone and hers does not exhibit this behavior.  I'm hoping this is not a hardware issue as it displays fine above the low brightness setting.  Below is at least one thread of people having the same issue.
    http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599308
    2.  Screen response is slow.  It seems that that there is a delay between where my finger is and how the screen tracks my movements.  I'm hoping that can be adjusted to be similar to how the Lumia 800 responds as per this video.  The tracking starts at 3:45.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KBDZrqVW-8
    3.  Home screen scrolling is slower than other Windows Phones.  On my previous Dell Venue Pro, I could scroll through the home screen much faster.  From reading about the web, it seems that the Lumia 900 is set at a much slower pace, or that the inertia scrolling just isn't set.  I'm hoping that can either be changed or allow us to change the scroll speed.  The combination of the larger screen, the slower screen response, and the slower scrolling just makes the phone feel slower than it should be.
    http://forums.wpcentral.com/lumia-900-ace/190309.htm
    Sound/Notifications:
    1.  There is a large volume discrepancy between the speaker and the headphone jack.  I try to keep the volume at one setting (around 18) because that is most comfortable for me when listening with headphones, but switching back to the speaker, and it is just clearly too loud at that setting.  I'm hoping this can be changed with an update.
    http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1615986
    2.  Changing the volume while the screen is off is very inconsistent.  I have to press the volume rocker buttons several times before it makes the incremental change.  It seems others were having issues with the volume rocker not working at all prior to the 4/16 update, so I'm hoping this can be fixed further.
    http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1607937
    3.  Vibrate function seems to be making a rattling noise.  This one definitely seems to be a hardware issue, though what I have seems to be 'normal' for a Lumia 900.  It's not as bad as others I've seen on the web, where it would be extremely loud, but it is annoying nonetheless.  I'm just hoping a hardware fix can be put in place for the future.  It sounds similar to that of the Lumia 900 at the end of this video.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KBDZrqVW-8
    Camera:
    1.  The camera has issues with white balance and focus.  This is definitely a software issue, since 3rd party camera software are able to take great pictures just fine, such as SophieCam.  I'm hoping this can be addressed soon.
    http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605444
    Despite these issues, I really do like the phone.  I hope many of these issues can be addressed soon via software updates.  We broke contract with our previous carrier to obtain these phones, and would really like to keep them, but not at their current state with these various issues.  I'm hoping Nokia will see these issues and provide quick and helpful support for them.

    OK, so I've calmed down a bit and now realize some detailed explanation of the issue could help to identify it more than ranting.  So, here are the usage conditions and symptoms I noticed when I got into this battry drain, laggy, warm phone situation.
    1st time:
    Where:  At work which is outside of Phoenix in a spotty reception area.  I had maybe 1-2bars of 4G showing
    What: Drove to work using bluetooth audio all the way. When I got to work I was trying to download an App, but the download failed.  I tried again, and the download started, then just froze at 15%.  I cancelled the download and tried again.  It started to download and froze again at 15%.  I attributed this to the weak coverage (but since then I've been able to complete a download from the same location with the same service)
    Then the battery seemed to drain as fast as I could charge it...literally.  I had the phone plugged into a USB charger and the state of charge barely changed after hours of charging.  I never thought to re-start.  I got home and my battery was basically dead after bluetooth audio all the way home (almost 1 hr).  I finally restarted and had no more issues.  Didn't really think anything of it...just thought my new phone had a **bleep** battery life
    2nd time (following day):
    Where: At home with strong LTE coverage in Tempe
    What:  Woke up, paired up with my portable bluetooth stereo at home.  Let the music play while I hung out in the pool for a few hours.  I was simultaneously taking pictures throughout the afternoon.  Battery charge quickly fell to about 25%.  I started to notice that when I would zoom into the pictures I had just taken, it would take about 15sec for the resolution to re-sharpen after zooming in.  About 20min later my battery critically low warning came on.  So, I plugged into my wall charger.  Can't remember at what point I re-started.
    That was Saturday.  I had no issues and great battery life on Sunday.  No bluetooth audio usage.  Used Nokia Drive, the phone, internet, and various apps, but no BTA.
    3rd time:
    Where:  Driving from Tempe to work, passing in and out of coverage along the way
    What: Streamed Bluetooth audio the entire drive with a few phone calls mixed in.  Got to work and the phone was warm, but I assumed this was normal after an hour of usage.  Got into work and noticed it being laggy in general.  Turned off data and BT  Gave it a few minutes to recover and for the phone to cool off with no usage.  Phone didn't cool off and remained laggy, so I figured something was up.  I re-started, all issues disappeared, and phone cooled off.  It has been fine since.

  • Lumia 900: Bugs I wish to make known for future s...

    Proud owner of a Nokia Lumia 900 (matte black).  Beautiful phone but I'd like to report some bugs:
    A) Audio Sound:  Way too low for audio out to either  a headphone or listening through the auxillary port in my car.  I use my phone at the gym and while the audio is clear it's way too quiet even at 30/30.  In my car I have to crank up the volume really high to hear my music.  My previous Samsung and Apple devices always sounded loud and clear compared to the Lumia. 
    B) Tiles don't always open completely:  Several times when I click on a live tile the app starts to load then it just goes back to the homescreen.  I'll repeat the task and the same thing happens again and again until I reboot.   Also sometimes when playing music apps like Spotify, Slacker or TuneIn the apps will play in the background but when I go back in to try to pause them I can't.  The app won't reload and it's not found when I hit the back arrow.  Again I have to reboot to regain control of my phone. 
    C) Poor data streaming performance even with good signal:  AT&T's network rocks in my area.  Very solid.  But since I've started using the Lumia I've noticed that streaming data often pauses or freezes for no reason.  Usually by relaunching the stream it returns only to cut out again without recovering on its own.  Yes my device has the software update that was shortly released after launch and this happens on several streaming apps.  If I was new to AT&T I might be inclined to blame their network for this but I've been using them for a long time and have several devices that I've used without this issue. 
    D) Camera:  For a device with Carl Zeiss optics it performs average or below average compared to competitors like HTC or Apple.   Needs better support for those with shaky hands and for less than ideal lighting situations.  
    That's about it.  Everything else I love about this phone.  I'm hoping Nokia can take feedback like mine and use it to improve their product line over time.  We're picky here in the US and we like out products bigger and better than everyone else.  We also are a gadget driven country and we'll pay more to have the best.

    There are limitations with Microsoft's OS, but things will continue to get better. Microsoft has a suggestion page that addresses many of these "problems." I have a feeling a lot of energy is being put into WP8/Windows 8 so we won't see minor changes like volume control, for a while. Still, updates will come that address issues that users care about.
    Yeah, but do not expect to see those changes on your current Windows 7 phone. If those issues are adressed they will most certainly only be fixed on Windows Phone 8

  • Will there be a Lumia 900 trade-in program?

    Just curious to know if there will be some sort of trade in program for those of us that bought a Lumia 900?  I wouldn't expect it because it probably doesn't make a lot of fiscal sense but you guys would gain a TON of love if you made it happen.  Doesn't have to be 1:1 either.  I'd gladly pay $100-$200 and trade in for the Lumia 920 (or even the 820 if that's the only option).  Maybe even just half off?

    petrib wrote:
    Doubtful, as the Lumia 900 sales do not seem to be very significant in the first place (the total number of all Lumia models sold over the entire history of their existence - reportedly about 7 million units -, is still less than half of the amount of Nokia's Symbian sales in a quarter, three month period, during Symbian's best times - reportedly about 20 million/quarter). It'd also do quite a bit to decrease Nokia's declining earnings, with no increase in market share.
    My issue is that I have an essentially brand new phone that, after just 5 months, has both an obsolete OS and obsolete hardware. Nokia's (and Microsoft's) issue is that they're trying to sell an awesome new phone to a market who - as a whole - for the most part isn't interested. I do think that sales of the 920 will be significantly affected by the likely fact that the majority of people who *currently* are interested in buying a Nokia Windows Phone bought the 900 just a few months ago. I think that if Nokia (or Microsoft) were to offer an incentive to make it easier for owners of the Lumia 900 - or even any other Nokia Windows Phone - to upgrade to the 920, it would solve the issues of all parties: Lumia 900 owners get a 920 and Nokia sees a significant bump in sales (note I didn't say the sales numbers themselves would be significant, just that the increase would be significant).
    Nokia (and again, MS) are in a delicate situation right now, and I imagine they are (or should be) primarily concerned with getting more phones into the hands of customers, maintaining and increasing customer commitment, and building at least the *perception* that the market interest in their products is both greater than estimated as well as increasing over time. This all is to say they should be focused more on long term than short term revenue, and should be shooting for a situation like Apple has with the iPhone, with evangelists praising the merits of their products, committing themselves to the product ecosystem, and looking forward to buying the next version, when it comes out a year or more later. And yes, I do think offering an incentive to upgrade could contribute to these goals, and likely would be more effective than Nokia's providing a $100 credit for some relatively harmless and obscure data issue when the 900 was first released.

  • 7.8 for Lumia 900

    While I understand that "Nokia does not publish the expected release dates for new software versions", I am becoming very frustrated that my phone refuses to begin the updated process three weeks after it was 'released' (I have an unlocked Lumia 900 and live in Australia).
    It really, really ticks me off as I migrated from Android phones, which currently have infinitely fewer frustrations than WP, and even then their updates came thick and fast. It seems WP isn't competent enough to roll out a single update properly in the full year I've had my phone.
    Please someone give me some hope that 7.8 is somewhere on the horizon.

    Click here for more info about the WP7.8 availability. If there's a new version for your phone, you just have to wait. It'll become available soon.

  • Lumia 900 Camera bug

    Why there is no firmware update to fix the camera bugs of Lumia 900 up to the moment. It is almost a year from the day launched.

    I have contacted the Nokia Hong Kong since I found the problem (over 5 months), but they don't have any solution just ask me to wait for firmware.
    From the day of L900 launched, there were 2 updates (included 31/1/2013), both could not help in this matter.
    30/1, Nokia Hong Kong informed me that the related fix will be ready on April.  Is that true ?  Even there were release on 31 Jan 2013, your Community Manger (Global) also kept it as a secret on his email reply 2 weeks ago. How I can know the release date on April is true.

  • Lumia 900 turns off itself

    Have problem with my Lumia 900 as it turns off and locks it and I have to sign in again. This happen very often. What is the reason for this turn off?

    Hi, noob_perhaps.
    Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
    Let's try to figure out what seems to be the cause of your phone's behavior. When was the last time you've updated the software (SW) of your phone? As a note, the phone automatically checks for updates on a weekly basis. Here's how you can get notifications about new updates:
    On your Nokia Lumia, go to Settings, and tap phone update.
    Switch Notify me when new updates are found on.
    If you want to allow your phone to check for available updates using your mobile data connection, switch Use my mobile data connection to check for updates on.
    Furthermore, Zune notifies you if new software updates are available when you connect your phone to your computer. You can download the Zune SW from here: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/Live/Partners/Zune.
    In case your phone has the latest SW update, proceed on doing a hardware reset on it. Do that by simply pressing and holding the power and volume down keys simultaneously until the phone vibrates, release the keys, and the phone will restart. No worries, your personal data is not affected by this and it would be best to monitor your phone after doing this fix.
    If you're still having trouble, let us know. All the best! 

  • Lumia 900 specs?

    For the 22 years I've owned a cell phone I've NEVER owned a non-Nokia phone and I don't really want to look else where for my next phone, but I want/need some of the conveinences/features contained in my current Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phone.
    I have been waiting for the Lumia 900 to be released since it was announced and just yesterday I read the specs for it.  However, I still have some questions about the 900:
    What Bluetooth profiles does it ship with?
    Will it sync with Zune via Bluetooth?
    Does the Zune software, or some other software, allow SMS messaging through the phone from a PC?
    Is the Zune software as comprehensive, or more so, as the Nokia Suite software I use with my Symbian based 5800?
    The specs indicate the phone has two microphones ... why?
    The specs list the model number of the battery.  And, that the phone has unibody construction.  Is the battery user replaceable?
    Will the 900 be upgradable to Windows Phone 8, when its released, or will the 900 be stuck/orphaned with 7.5?
    There was no mention of TV out connectivity.  Was that an omission fromt the specs ... or, does it really not have it?
    Thanks,
    Rick

    luxsphinx thanks for your reply.
    I also am in the US and I travel a lot and the TV out feature is great in that I can connect my Nokia 5800 to my PC via USB, see the phone, and it's memory card, as additional hard disks (which is not available on the Lumia 900), copy a couple of movies to the MicroSD card (which is definitely not available on the Lumia 900), get to the hotel at my destination, plug in the TV out cable which was supplied with the phone and watch a movie of my choice on the big screen in 16:9 Hi-Res.
    As for the ability to send SMS while connected to the PC ... I get/send a lot of text messages and if I'm at my desk PC, or on the road on my laptop, I just plug the phone into the computer, open Nokia Suite software, sync the messages and any new messages that come are displayed in a popup window in the lower right hand corner of the screen.  I can click on the popup window, the message opens up and I can read and reply on the full sized screen and via the full sized keyboard, click send and I'm back to work again without having to touch the phone ... or, it's tiny keyboard.  Since all SMS messages are received and sent via the phone (albeit through a USB cable, or via Bluetooth).  (Bluetooth data transfer is also not available on the Lumia 900).  When I unplug and leave my desk, all the message history goes with me, unlike when through an IM client (which, while also convenient when at the desk, leaves the message history at the desk as I think a PC client would use a phone number that is different than the number of the cell phone).
    Additionally, the Nokia Suite software allows viewing, editing and synchronizing contacts DIRECTLY with Outlook (no cloud involved), viewing and synchronizing pictures, backing up the phone's settings and software, browsing the app store, updating firmware and apps, playing/purchasing music, and downloading and updating maps.  The Nokia Suite software allows for some real conveniences.  The "new" system for the Lumia 900 has NO WAY to back up the phone's settings at all ... that I've been able to determine anyway.  Files get backed up to "the cloud" eating up the data plan, or maybe through a data cable to Zune.  I don't know yet about firmware updates or map updates via a data cable, or if they have to eat up the data plan also.  Since I don't have a Windows Phone yet, I can't see what Zune is capable of.
    As far as I can find out the Zune software allows an interface for manipulating and synchronizing media (music, video and pictures) and that's about all.  There doesn't appear to be a way to copy anything to the Lumia 900's memory directly through a computer's file management program. (Windows Explorer), and that's ridiculous!
    I know I'm just used to my 3 year old Nokia 5800, but the lack of features in the Lumia 900, that I've grown accustomed to in my 5800, are NUMEROUS!  I'm having a difficult time seeing this as "progress".
    I know what you're saying regarding the battery issue.  My 5800 has a replaceable battery. And, on occasion I have to insert my "standby" battery to keep going for the rest of the day till I can get to a charger.  I'm now faced with looking at charging EVERY chance I get ... and/or buying one of the external battery packs as a backup power supply till I can get to a charger.  That is "if" I get a Lumia 900.  This just really sucks that I feel like I'm having to "settle" for so much less than what Nokia has made me accustomed to, in order to have their "new - top of the line - flagship?" cell phone!!!
    I think you're mistaken about AT&T's "inability" to issue updates.  AT&T is the world's largest communications company.  They are definitely "able" to issue an update.  What it really comes down to is ... they are unwilling, for whatever reason, to issue updates in a timely manner, if at all!  There was a rumor/discussion about Nokia forcing the service providers to issue "at least every other" firmware update produced by the manufacturer.  But, it now sounds like AT&T has won out and they don't "have to" issue any updates, if they don't want to.  I can't imagine that could be good for Nokia, as improvements ... and stability fixes ... are now up to AT&T.  So, the end user experience will suffer and Nokia's brand will be tarnished, when in fact, the fault lies with the service provider AT&T.  **bleep**!
    ANY new top of the line Nokia, or any other manufacturer's, "smartphone" should be able to transfer files/data/tether via Bluetooth.  I'm neither a software, nor a hardware, engineer ... but, how difficult can it be to add a Bluetooth profile ... or two?
    A top of the line Nokia "smartphone" should be able to connect to a PC with Nokia Suite (via both Bluetooth and data cable) for synchronization, image and SMS backup, data transfer AND for SMS messaging via the PC's full size keyboard.  In these respects I was hoping the Lumia 900 would be at least as advanced as my 3 year old Nokia 5800, but it's NOT!  Also, a camera that is at least as good as the iPhone camera should be a given.  From some images I've seen posted in other forums, I'm not so sure that the Lumia 900's camera is as good ... in lower lux environs.  It seems to do a good job when there's a lot of light around though.
    The Lumia 900 certainly is nice to look at, and it feels nice to hold, ... but, it is lacking some very BASIC features, at least to me.
    I also think there should be some definitive information issued by either Microsoft, and/or Nokia, regarding the availability of an upgrade path to the new Windows Phone 8 OS that is due out in just a few months.  Should we really be expected to buy a phone that will have an orphaned OS in a matter of months?
    Since my first cell phone, 20 years ago!, I've NEVER owned a non-Nokia phone.  I don't want an iPhone.  I don't want an Android phone.  I want another Nokia phone!  I've been waiting for the Lumia 900 for months.  But, I'm sorely disappointed that the Lumia 900 has been short changed in its feature set.
    I don't know whether the fault lies with the Microsoft's Windows Phone 7.5 OS, or with Nokia's hardware, or both.  But, these issues MUST be fixed, or Microsoft AND Nokia will lose/not gain the market share they both are vying for.
    In the current cell phone market, it would seem to me, that for OS and hardware makers, it's all about differentiating yourself from your competitors.  Microsoft's Windows Phone OS is competing with both Apple's iOS and Google's Android, neither of which are light-weights. Nokia is competing with a plethora of fine hardware manufacturers.  Even though Nokia is the largest cell phone manufacturer in the world, they only have a fraction of the smartphone market.  Unfortunately, I don't currently see the crippled Microsoft WP/Lumia lineup changing that.  Maybe Microsoft and Nokia are OK with that ... after all, iOS is laden with limitations for it's users, and purchasers flock to it because of the fine hardware, almost bullet proof iOS ... and all the apps.  Android, while offering more flexibility than iOS and WP offer, is making a move toward less flexibility (like the others have already done) to reduce/eliminate fragmentation of the OS.  Perhaps that is the end goal for MS and Nokia ... cripple the OS, limit the user and limit the hardware's functionality, but ... make it beautiful, and hope that we will flock to it.
    Sorry, I know this a probably a lot more than you ever wanted to know, but I suppose I just had to vent all the frustrations that have been building up since I've been looking into the specs for the my much anticipated Lumia 900.
    All I know is ... I'm sorely disappointed ... and, for the first time ever, ... I'm re-evaluating whether, or not, to buy another Nokia phone.  How sad!

  • Lumia 900 MMS Settings (Where is Network Pofile Ap...

    I have an unlocked (By Rogers Canada) Lumia 900 that I purchased outright as I travel a lot and it's nice to be able to insert a SIM card locally to the location I'm currently in. I'm using it mainly on Fido (Rogers owned carrier). Everything works great except MMS.
    I know for whatever strange reason WP7 doesn't have a Settings option to manually configure MMS settings. I read that Nokia had released a Network Profile App but I don't see it in the Lumia section of the Market. Read a couple of comments on the web that the app was removed. Why was it removed? This is something that should have been preinstalled!
    Is Nokia releasing a Network Profile App for the Lumia 900?
    Also read frustration from some people who indicated that the app has to have the provider listed to configure the MMS Settings.
    It's really easy, all you need is an MMS Configuration app that allows a user to manually enter their own carrier settings!

    Lumia 900 models which are currently available in the US and CAN region either come with MMS settings pre-installed or should get these from the SIM when going through the Device First Usage (DFU) procedure. For this reason the Network Setup app is not available in these regions for the Lumia 900.
    Kosh here is OUR problem with this and you need to go back to the people who gave you this information and inform them of this so they understand.
    There are two carriers that carry the Lumia 900 in North America, AT&T in the US and Rogers in Canada. Both carry the handset branded to their respective company and while each company likes to "lock" users into contracts to subsidize handsets, both of these companies allow users to purchase the Lumia 900 outright. As long as one is not in a contract to subsidize the handset, both (AT&T and ROGERS) CAN AND WILL provide their customer with an UNLOCK code. This is something they started doing recently, probably to keep the respective regulatory bodies in each country from forcing new policies on them. Whatever the reason, people like myself who purchased the handset outright and RECEIVED an unlock code do so because we want ot own the handset. We may travel and purchase sim cards in the countries we travel too. We may have multiple services and have the option of using the handset with any of those services or we may simply (as much as the carrier hates it) opt to switch carriers in the future.
    It's not really practical for us to be resetting our phones to configure it for a new SIM card and the information you provided doesn't work anyways. I've tried it. With this said, the Lumia 800 sold by Telus in Canada allows you to configure the MMS settings through the Diagnostic app. The Lumia 900 does not and we need to do it in these cases.
    Please provide whoever gave you this answer with the information in this reply. Unfortunately Nokia does not (they should) sell unbranded handsets directly to consumers in North America. And for whatever strange reason, Microsoft forgot to include the option to configure MMS settings in the OS like they do with data APN. Given the fact that both AT&T and ROGERS WILL PROVIDE CUSTOMERS WITH UNLOCK CODES, there is no reason why Nokia shouldn't allow the Network Setup App to be available in the North American marketplaces. I'm sure Nokia and these two companies would rather have it there then having customers like myself going to the FCC/CRTC to petition new policies against their respective carriers.
    Please pass this information along as many of us need to configure MMS settings either through the NETWORK SETUP app or the Diagnostic App. We don't care as long as we can when we need to do so!

  • When will be Lumia 900 available in India?

    Unfortunately not, all you can do is wait and keep checking with retailers or news sites.
    Anything posted here would be pure speculation that you can find on news sites and cannot be confirmed as being true.
    Given the fact that delays have been caused in other countries due to it's popularity in the US it's likely that Nokia has had to rethink release dates for many countries.
