Lumia 920, screen rotation not working, loosen obj...

I have pre-ordered the lovely yellow 920 from Telstra Australia, in November, arrived around start of December. It is a fantastic phone to use, however there are several hardware and software issues influencing this experience in a bad way. Anyone have the same experiences with the folloing issues?
Firstly, I have noticed only in just a few days of using it, the screen can get obvious scratches very easily from normal use without screen protector film. Now, there is a pattern of many scratches from swipe up to unlock gesture. I though it would be as least do better than iphones
Secondly, I have noticed what feels like a chunk of loose object inside the phone, as I shake it quickly left and right, which could even be heard, as two hard object in contact with each other. I have no Idea what could that be.
Thirdly, the screen rotation simply stopped working one day without notice. Tried soft reset a dozen times and even hard reset to factory status did not fix the issue. This get me thinking, it might have been a serious hardware issue, or perhaps the accelorometer/gyroscope was damaged by that loose object inside the phone. However, today, all of a sudden it starts to work again.........Brilliant!.......not...
Another issue is that it could get Literally Burning Hot on the top right corner(front) of the phone in some circumstances. I understand electronic devices can get warm while operating, my Nokia N8 gets warm during intense operation such as multi-tasking Map, Drive etc, But it never gets to a point when you have to consider whether it is still safe to use or not, sadly, I have to do that with my 920 while video chatting,
There are even more issue with the software. A few random mornings in the past month, I wake up to a dead 920 on a wireless charging pad, only to be able to recover through soft reset procedure (Volum down + power). No idea why....
and sometimes as I accept an incoming call, the phone freezes on that screen. The call still goes through, three buttons are still alight and vibrates, but not functional. Again, only recoveralbe by soft reset.
Does anyone have the same experiences with these issues?
No matter what might caused these issues, to have all these occuring within a flagship smartphone, Me as a loyal Nokia fan (3210,6600,6220,3220,6300,N95,N8) is very disappointed.

I also bought Lumia 920 and had same issue with accelorometer. I have submitted phone in Nokia care and after 15 days they repired and given back. This happened in june 2013, now i started facing same issues again and my phone also get very hot while charging...... Can anyone advice how to get my device preplaced ???
thanks.

Screen Rotation not working

I have upgraded my laptop from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. Since upgrading the Screen rotation function is no longer available or working. When checking in the property part the following message is displayed. no Pen or touch input available for this display?

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion x360 Notebook and Screen Rotation not working after an update to Windows 10. Here is a link to configure the touch display to identify your screen as a touch screen. The document is for Windows 8 but the procedure is the exact same troubleshooting.
Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system at the time of purchase or that need updating. If your computer is having problems finding and installing operating system updates, try using the Windows Update Troubleshooting tool to fix the problem.Here is a document that shows how to update drivers that are not working correctly with Windows 10.I hope this helps. Thanks.

Lumia 920 screen is not rotating even though it h...

My Nokia lumia 920 had been submitted to nokia care several times for the phone used to get hanged.I was told it will be allright.my phone had been kept in their servicing centre for more than a month but then the same problem persists.And then I submitted again but still the same problem again.This has been continuing for many months.
Finally the screen will not roatate when the phone is kept at horizontal or horizantal position.
How many times do I have to go to Nokia care?I feel it is one of the worst service wanting to trouble their consumers.

As this platform is a user to user board we can't do much for you here. I suggest you file a complaint with Nokia Care on this.

Lumia 920 soft buttons not working after wireless ...

I am having this new problem after I did amber update. Since then, whenever I place the phone on charge plate and take it from it, the soft buttons wont work unless I restart the phone. Its working fine before the update. Its an US AT&T phone.
Does anyone have the same issue with their's after the update? or is there any resolution for this?
thanks

I have the same problem. I am not sure if an app update is what caused this, but my camera on my new Cyan Nokia Lumia 920 has stopped working. I took two photos yesterday, but when I tried to take some today my camera was a completely black screen with the bottom buttons grayed out and the top bottom to view recent pictures highlighted and still working. I don't know what to do because I purchased this phone off of Ebay and everything worked fine after I purchased it. I'm hoping I didn't get a faulty phone.
I have tried everything.... soft reset, deleting all the camera apps, and tried to reset the camera. I want to avoid doing a hard reset because it bricked my last Nokia and I don't want that to happen.
The only way I can use my camera is through an app, Nokia Glam Me. But it only uses FFC (front facing camera)
I don't know what else I should do.
Help. Please...

Hi,
I have trouble with all three capacative keys on my lumia 920. They work when phone is held in hand,
but when put on table they dont respod at all. Each time i want do do something with the phone i have to pick it up.
With that problem phone s case crakles and makes all kind of noises. It have half mm gap on left side of the screen. Took it to service, but they returned with remark "issues have not been noticed on device". They just repleaced software, but that didnt fix it. What to do?

Hi dejan385,
Welcome to the forum!
Did something happen to the phone prior to these issues? When did these issues start to happen? Just to verify, did you bring the phone to a local 3rd party repair center, or to a Nokia Care Point?
Since the phone has already undergone an initial assessment but the issue wasn't fixed, we suggest visitting other Nokia Care Points / Authorized Service Centers (if possible) to have it re-evaluated. Check this link for the global Nokia support page: Nokia Wayfinder
Let us know if you need further help.

Lumia 920 camera suddenly not working after app up...

I have had yellow Lumia 920 now for about 3 weeks and everything worked just fine. Yesterday evening (european time) I saw update reminders on the "shop" tile and there were 3 or 4 of them (Nokia drive+ and some others that I don't remember). I was doing something and didn't give a thought but just let the updates to be downloaded and installed and they went fine as far as I know. Today when I tried to take photos the camera suddenly dosen't work anymore. No matter if I click the hardware button or the camera app tile, it just flip back to live tiles. Camera doesn't work on Bing search either and not on any apps that utilized the camera.
I wonder if anyone else have this problem or what I should do next... I have restart the phone a few times but it didn't help... I haven't hard reset it because I have so many stuff in the phone, if there is a easy way to do it I rather not hard reset it...
Any suggestions are greatly welcome!

Screen rotation not working in iso 5.0.1 ver

Screen rotation is not working in ios 5.0.1 ver in ipad2 with 3g please help

Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If so, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Nokia Lumia 920 Home button not working

I was using my phone as usual and suddenly the home button stopped working. I was on Facebook, wanted to go to the start screen because I had just received a text message and I realized the home button was completely unresponsive. I tried a soft and hard reset and it still doesn't work. The button lights up as it's supposed to. The phone hasn't been dropped or has received any major (or minor, in that case) damage.

Hello, marurokz. Are the other capacitive buttons (Search & Back) of your Lumia 920 working fine? Do you have any screen protector covering the Start button of your phone? If yes, try removing that portion for a while and see if it'll work. BTW, is your phone's SW updated? Check it by going to Settings > phone update. Keeping your Lumia 920's SW updated helps assure that all of its features are fully functional.
We'll wait for your response. BTW, welcome to the Microsoft Mobile Community!

Lumia 920 status bar not working

I am unable to pull down my status bar or switch my phone to silent. I thought maybe the screen was broken but I am able to touch my Facebook notifications icon which is also at the top of the screen and it works. Also am unable to retrieve text messages by pressing the bar that pops up when I'm in an app or web browser. I have to close it out, go to the home screen and open the text message icon to retrieve it. I have had the phone for 5 days. I didn't even realize I was suppose to be able to access the status bar or switch my phone to silent or retrieve messages by touching the top until I spoke to another Lumia owner.

Well from my experience, if I receive an sms in the middle of using an app, say for instance, IE, tapping on the notification does bring me to the message. Can confirm if this applies to all apps though. Even if not, there is no need to close the app. Just tap the windows icon at the bottom of the screen and that should bring you back to the start screen without closing the app.
Tapping the top of the screen bring up the icons at the top only work from the start screen but there do not pull down.

Lumia 920 touch is not working

Hi
I recently (~3 monghts ago) bought Lumia 920 and it was just fine until few weeks ago when touch screen just started behavihg crazy. I can't answer the calls because it's not responsive, I can't unlock the phone when it's locked etc... After a while, trying to unlock the phone I manege to unlock it, but agin, when I lock it same problems occour. I can't go back to store and ask for replacement because I bought it in Dubai and right now I'm in Europe. I don't know what to do with it, it's driving me crazy!
Any kind of help or suggestion would be highly apprecieted.
Thanks.

Try a Soft Reset to start with ..
Press Power + Volume(down) keys until the phone vibrates (about 8-10 seconds). The Phone will Reboot.
Check whether the issue remains..
BTW do you have a Screen Protector fixed ?

Lumia 920 alarm clock not working properly

The alarm clock on my Lumia 920 does not work properly. It randomly fails to sound the alarm. When the alarm should sound it just disables itself without making any indication that something has happened. Usually this happens when re-enabling existing alarms. This week I tested to always create a new alarm and it has already failed multiple times. Rebooting the phone seems to solve the problem temporarily but it always comes back.
I have not hard reseted my phone as I was hoping that the Amber update would contain a fix, but unfortunately the problem still exists with the update installed . I don't turn my phone off for the night and the problem is not with the volume being muted etc.
I bought my phone in December 2012 from the operator TeliaSonera (Finland).
This bug is really annoying as I have to carry a secondary device just for the alarm.

Ive found this problem with the 920/925 myself i usually stick it in flight mode at night now and leave it upside down so as to get full effect from the speaker,on the 925 that is.
I Hard reset it and its been fine since.
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
Now using the Lumia 1520

Lumia 920 proximity sensor not working

It's a 5 months old Lumia 920 and already the proximity sensor stopped working!!!
When i make a call or receive a call, when i place the phone beside my ear, or cover it with my hand just to check, nothing happens! The phone screen doesn't go black, it stays active for the entire time and the phone charge drains like crazy.
Guess it's a hardware failure. Still if anyone has any suggestions, i will appreciate much.
Thanks in advance.
BR,
Saad

I've had the same problem. The screen won't blank during a call (like the proximity sensor isn't detecting my face/finger/hand). I keep hanging up on people with my ear. I've taken to locking my screen before putting it to my ear but anytime I get another call / text / voicemail / calendar notification / alarm while i'm on the phone (which happens a lot still) it lights the screen up again and makes it where i'm able to hang up with my ear.
I've factory reset, and had the phone replaced TWICE already. I'm on my 3rd Lumia 920 (and they all have the same issue!) This didn't happen until the most recent firmware update...so I think it was a problem created when they were trying to fix the other proximity sensor issue where the screen stayed on black all the time during a call.
Rebooting does fix the problem temporarily, but it always comes back. I'm tired of hanging up on people and hoping for a new model device from AT&T but they're giving me **bleep** at the moment.
TLDR: Factory reset, replacement devices don't fix the problem. It's a firmware bug. I'm on my 3rd 920 with the same issue. Extraordinarily frustrating.

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.
