Lumia 920 doesn't charge

I bought my lumia 920 yesterday and while it charges in my car with an USB charging adapter it doesn't so with the delivered ac charger! The curios thing is, my old lumia 900 gets charged with the same one... What can i do?

Hi Peterp1980,
I tried the charger that came with the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S, the original one. I know that the 920 charges using the AC-16 charger provided in the box, and that is a 1A. For me, perhaps 2.1A is too much current to charge the phone with, so that would explain its incompatibility.
The 920 doesn't exactly have full support for USB mass storage (unless I'm missing something here....as far as I've seen it only really connects in Media Transfer Protocol Mode), so I have been unable to charge mine through my car stereo's USB port (500mA) like I was able to for my Nokia N8.
Due to the high current of your car charger, and also what I have described with its USB support, knowing which car chargers and third-party chargers will work with the 920, will be a matter of trial and error and user reporting.

Lumia 920 doesn't do anything

Hi everyone,
My Lumia 920 doesn't do anything at all, when I push the powerbutten it doens't vibrate, the screen is black and I can't hear a sound. Is there anything I could try myself, or do I need to send it to nokia?
thanks for thinking.

There are a few things you can try before sending it off.
Firstly, connect it to a charger and leave it for 30 minutes just in case the battery is so dead that it can't even register the fact that you want to switch on.
If that doesn't bring it back to life then the next thing to try is a soft reset. Simply press and hold the "volume down" and "power/lock" keys together for about 20 seconds. The phone should vibrate and boot up. While your settings, installed apps, media etc. will be preserved, you might have to set the clock again.
If even that doesn't work then the next thing to try is a hard reset. Now, this will erase everything in the phone and make it start in pristine factory state. Hopefully your contacts, messages, photos and apps will have been backed up to SkyDrive, meaning that you should be back up and running again fairly quickly.
Disconnect the charger and wait for a minute. Next, press and hold the "volume down" key while connecting the charger. You should see an exclamation mark on the screen. Then, press in sequence the following keys: "volume up", "volume down", "power/lock" and then "volume down" again. The phone should reinitialise itself.
If none of the above work then you will have to send the phone off for repairs, I'm afraid.

My windows phone 8 nokia lumia 920 doesn't show up in finder

I have a macbook pro laptop and want to download some music files to my windows phone from finder. I don't want to use the official windows phone app, where it shows up, but I do not prefer this app because it allows me only to upload full albums to my phone instead of single songs. By the way, it also shows up in iphoto, but not in finder. How can I solve this?

You should use windows phone app. only this way. as for me, i cant move photos from lumia 920 to iphoto. i think, promblem in USB3.0. but i dont want belive in it

Changing volume on my Lumia 920 doesn't work while...

I got this problem just yesterday. Whenever I play a song or a video on my Lumia 920, I can't change the volume while playing it. I can only change it before playing it. What should I do?

Try performing a soft reset by holding both Volume Down and Power buttons pressed until the handset vibrates and reboots. You will not lose any data or settings except Date and Time, which you can readjust manually. Check also that you are up to date with your phone's firmware and all system apps including the music one are also up to date with their latest versions.

Lumia 920 Wireless Car Charger?

Technically, I'm not part of the Nokia community yet, as I don't have my Lumia in hand. But, I am getting the 920 on December 1st. I am ridiculously excited! But onto my question, has anyone heard or read anywhere that Nokia is developing a wireless car charger? I love the idea of my phone sitting on a dock(Attached to a cigarette lighter of course) and being able to pick it up and answer a call and not have to worry about the cord getting caught on the e-brake or snagged somewhere and unplugging from the phone when the phone is picked up. I just think this would be a great accessory!

It isn't wireless, but Proclip has come out with a 920 car mount with integral charge connector. Been using their stuff for years and highly recommend. The concept is two part, one specifically for the car, and the other for the device. They have an optional Move Clip system that makes moving device holders and changing them more convinient. The site is at http://www.proclipusa.com
One 920 specific one is here
I have the non-powered one for the 920. Almost looks like you could slide the charge plate behind it, but the wall wart isn't USB. Haven't looked to see what the power requirements are for the wireless chargers. Might be a project for a motivated techie. I am a techie, but the motivation is an issue.

Lumia 920. slow original charger

The original cable when plugged into the mains will take forever to charge. It takes even longer than charging through the USB port in the computer, and it's hardly even warm. I had the charger replaced twice already and now it's the same thing again. I have tested with a different charger that worked great. Has anyone else had similar problems?

All you need to do is to look at the charger specs. The figure of interest here is the output current which should be xxx mA. xxx is the output current of the charger and the higher it is the quicker the battery will charge. It can be anything from around 350mA to 2000mA.

Lumia 920, no flash after updating to Black:-(

The flash on the camera on my Nokia Lumia 920 doesn't work after updating to Black !
Any ideas ?

Hi there, Arbaerinn.
Did something happen to your phone prior to doing an update? What fixes have you tried so far? Try to restart your phone by pressing and holding the Power and Volume down keys simultaneously for 10-15 seconds. Release the keys and then the phone will restart.
You can also try resetting your camera. To do that, go to Settings > swipe to left to see application > phone+camera > reset camera. No photo or personal data will be deleted in doing this.
If the said fixes didn't make any difference, we suggest you take the phone to the Nokia Care Point for evaluation. Check for Nokia Care Points in your location by visiting your Local Support page: http://www.nokia.com/global/wayfinder/ .
We wish you the best in resolving this matter.

Turning screen Lumia 920

The screen of my Lumia 920 doesn't turn automaticly anymore. Can I change the settings somewhere?

Install this application and check results for magnetometer as you may have a hardware issue:http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/diagnostics-toolset/7e500919-deda-4a9c-93c5-c9fc9a046ffa
Backup your data to the "Cloud" and consider carrying out reset of device prior to returning to Nokia Care facility for repair and to exclude any possible software corruption.

My Lumia 920 died - does not boot or charge

Hi,
Yesterday my Lumia 920 suddenly turned off, and refuses to boot - no lifesigns at all. I have attempted to charge the phone (no charging sound) and tried to reset the phone, but it remains dead.
I previously had some problems with occasional reboots, and though it was related to some problems with Windows Phone 8 - however last Sundays it rebooted 3 times...
Anyone else have the same problems? Is there something I can attempt to do?
Spending the Christmas and new year without a phone sucks.

Lumia 920 Wireless Charging not working - Known is...

I have a Nokia Lumia 920, which works perfectly fine. I haven't had some of the other issues reported here with freezing, apps, etc.
I have a Nokia charging plate and I've found that no matter what I do the wireless charging plate absolutely does not work. I've turned off Bluetooth, Wifi, turned ON Battery Saver, disabled every background app, even hard reset my phone and tried charging it from stock. The wireless charging plate doesn't even maintain the current battery state - The battery slowly drains hour by hour. I've also tried placing the phone on the charging plate in different positions to ensure it's making good contact. Nothing works.
Is this a known issue? Is there anyway to identify a defective phone? Is there a possible fix for this? I love my Lumia, but this a killer feature I would expect to work consistently.

OK, this thread is odd. My charging plate works fine. It has a side with a little ring and Nokia in it, and the other side has an oval of rubber around the periphery with the usual conformance writing on it that side Qi, CE, don't throw it on the trash icon, Mine works just fine with the Oval down, and the Nokia in the ring up. Is that not what others see?
I can turn it over, but it is touchy as to whether I can get the light to come on. Usually not. I assumed, initially, the oval went down to keep it from sliding around on the table, and Nokia went up because they want you to know it's Nokia. Has always worked that way. I wish there was a larger rubber something on the 'top' as the phone can slide and spin more than I think it should.
For what it is worth, I much prefer the charge stand, but the plate is more convenient if I am going to travel somewhere for a while. Couple of days, just charger, week or so, might bring the plate for the hotel.
BTW, I do get the connect noise when putting it on the charge plate. Sometimes it can take a second otr two. When I take it off, it can take several seconds to get the disconnect noise and the charging icon to go away. If I put it back on the charger before the disconnect noise and the charge icon goes away, it does NOT make a connect noise, though the light comes on. The light will also eventually go off at full charge.

Lumia 900 doesn't respond while charging

Hi, so basically my AT&T Lumia 900 doesn't respond to my touch during charging. If I unplug the phone it responds fine, but when it's plugged in it can't pick up any of my touch commands. Even if I draw across the screen very slowly I get nothing. I live in New Zealand and we have 240v/50mA power sockets over here but the charger says that's within the range it's supposed to handle. Is this a hardware problem with my phone and how can I fix it?
The phone is running windows phone 7.5 (ver. 7.10.8779.8). Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I've only received the phone on Thursday and this is the second time charging it (I read somewhere that I should drain the battery completely the first few times to condition the battery, but after finding that some phones bricked themselves when the battery was completely empty I avoided it). In both cases the same thing seems to be happening however the first time was not as severe I feel and I attributed it to the screen protector thing (the "Talking and Driving it can wait" thing from AT&T already attached out of the box). When the phone is at 100% though I have no lag.

Lumia 920 - internet sharing doesn't work: Connect...

Hello all,
I'm experiencing a serious problem with the lumia 920. It seems impossible to share my internet connection. Something I normally use for several hours a day. If this problem can't be fixed soon, ill be forced to swithc back to iphone or htc.
Problem description:
When turning "internet sharing" on:
Connection not shared - There is no cellular data connection to share right now. Check your cellular settings and signal, and try again.
Important remarks
Belgium - cellular provider is Mobistar
I can browse, sync email, etc over the provider's network ans send and receive MMS.
Provider does not block internet sharing. Have always used this.
OS Version 8.0.10211.204
Firmware revision: 1232.5957.1308.0002
Access point :
Nokia Access Point version:3.4.1.7 - db 2.0.0.100 - lib 1.2.0.7
The default access point provided in the Nokia Access Point app does not work: can't even browse.
Using a manually added APN:
Data type (default / LTE) tried both. Everything keeps working - except internet sharing...
APN pro.web.be (for professional subscribers)
MMS APN mms.be
MMSC address: https://mmsc.mobistar.be
What have i tried to remedy the situatiuon?
updated the Nokia Access Point app
changed language to spanisch using OTA update (silly, but read on a forum this might help)
soft reset of the phone (often!)
deleted the manually created access point
Hard reset of my phone
I'm interested, of course, in any tips to solve this serieus bug / issue / problem.
(my best guess is that Nokia tries to help their customers with the Access point app, but fails to do so).
Please, if any of you experience the same problem please respond to this post so we can get an idea about how big of a problem this is.

Hi,
I had the same problem. But I let it go after weeks of corresponding with Mobistar.
Yesterday I went to a Mobistar shop, the guy tried lots of thing I already tried (different apn's, ...).
Then he told me the it's a problem with business clients. They have to use the apn web.pro.be, where internet sharing doesn't work (he doesn't know why).
But, that if I call to Mobistar and ask to activate apn mworld.be on my telephone number, it should work.
Today I called Mobistar Business (you can find the helpdesk number on your invoices), asked to activate mworld.be to have internet sharing access on a windows phone.
Half an hour later, using mworld.be as apn i have internet access, and I can share my internet connection.
regards,
Stijn

Nokia lumia 920 slow charging

Hi,
I bought a new micro usb cable to have as a spare to charge my lumia 920 but have found that any micro USB cable that I use apart from the one that came with the phone will take forever to charge. The original cable when plugged into the mains will charge the battery from 10% to 100% in under 3 hours, any other cable can take up to 12 hours.
I have a battery app installed that tells me the % of charge per hour. The original charger gives me about 38% an hour while my other cables only manage 8% an hour.
anybody else experience these problems while using other cables?

Hello, all!
Slow charging is good to preserve the baterry. If you must recharge the battery fast, use the Nokia´s recharger, but if you leave the cell recharging the entire night, use de slowest as possible recharging mode. It´ll recharge the entire battery anyway and will preserve it for more and more future recharging.
Other tip: use the battery to the extreme end, until the GOODBAY message and recharge it for more 30 minutes, after the full bettery icon on display. It´ll preserve the baterry´s life for much more time and rechargings.
Thanks.
Peter
