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.

  • 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.

  • 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?
    Solved!

    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 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 Wireless Charging Plate...where do i get...

    Hi,
    Just traded my iPhone 5 (Had every single iPhone since the Original) for the Nokia Lumia 920.
    I got it from Best Buy and I must say Im really impressed with the Lumia 920.
    Still learning the features on my new phone but im liking it so far.
    My question is where do i sign up to get the free Wireless charger?

    I believe the free wireless charger was only available from some network carriers only and not universally across the U.S. or other countries and territories. If you are unable to find a retailer of the charging plates, you can click the Nokia Support link at the bottom of this page to chat online with a Nokia representative directly, who will be able to point you in the right direction.

  • Lumia 920 Facebook connection very slow over WiFi ...

    Since the Portico update the connection to Facebook both in the People and Me hub as well as in the Facebook app is very slow over WiFi, whilst still good over 4G/LTE (with WiFi off). The connection to the Nokia account also appears to have a similar problem. All other accounts and apps have good speed over both cellular and WiFi connections.
    Any ideas anybody?
    PS: FYI, a bit more info about the history and context: When I noticed the problem the first time after the update, I tried to solve it by deleting and re-adding my Facebook account on the phone. Unfortunately, that made me lose my Me hub tile, so I decided to do a full reset. That again unfortunately got stuck on the togg wheels, so I restored the phone using Nokia Care Suite with the latest firmware, and restored my accounts, apps and settings from scratch. Everythings seems to work fine now, except the above mentioned Facebook and Nokia account connectivity problem.

    Did you somehow solve this problem?
    I have the same issue here with my Lumia 920.
    However I have already found out that it only applies to my home Wifi. All other Wifi networks i was connecting to did work flawlesly.
    I need to note that all other devices on my home network are using facebook without a glitch. Only Lumia has some problems with it.

  • 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.

  • Can I use Lumia 920 charger to charge Lumia 925 ?

    I used tonight my friend Lumia 920 charger (EU ver) to charge my Lumia 925 for a little bit, is this safe for my 925 ?
    Thx.

    Hi, Milas. Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions. jimmyireland is correct. You may also see this link: http://www.nokia.com/global/products/accessories/?action=accessorysearch&product=1805904 to check the compatible chargers into your phone. 

  • Lumia 920 wireless charging not working after phon...

    Long story short
    Coulnd't hear anyone speaking on the phone if volume was turned up over 6 as internal earpiece distorts too badly (there is something loose inside the Lumia 920)
    Got the phone back from Nokia care point in Cheltenham UK, earpiece fault not fixed.
    Took it home, put it on the wireless charger - it now does not charge whereas it did perfectly before the trip to get 'fixed'
    Nokia careport say 'Nothing to do with us, we'll have to send it back to Finland, which will take 3 weeks and you can't have a spare phone'
    As a result, my confidence in Nokia is fading fast, won't be giving them any more chances to build a decent phone when this contract ends.

    Sounds like the care point has broken it and are refusing to accept responsibility for their actions. Care points are independent and not directly run by Nokia.
    I suggest you submit a complaint to Nokia UK on this link:

  • 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.

  • Can't charge Lumia 920 via usb in car

    I can't charge my Lumia 920 via usb in the car. There is nothing wrong with the cable, and I've also tried several other cables. There is nothing wrong with the car either, because it works fine on my boyfriends phone (Samsung Galaxy). It also works on my old HTC Desire. 
    And it also works to charge my Lumia 920 via usb on my laptop, so there's nothing wrong with my phone either. 
    Any suggestions??

    As not a Nokia accessory it could not be recommended in case of warranty issues, but if Lumia 920 running Drive draws more current than 750mA that CR-200 supplies http://www.nokia.com/gb-en/phones/phone/cr-200/specifications/ then use of an iPad car charger in accessory socket delivering 2.1 Amp should manage to net charge device battery whilst it is consuming >1 Amp in Drive mode.

  • Opinion on the Lumia 920

    Hello all
    about a month and a half ago, I sent my broken Lumia 800 in for repair (as it was still in warranty) after owning and using it for almost 2 years. A few days later, I received a message that told me my 800 could not be fixed, and asked me if I would accept a Lumia 920 instead. Of course I was extremely happy, and gratefully accepted the offer. I should note that I did not receive any warranty of some sort with the new phone.
    We are now almost 2 months further, and I have to say I am very dissapointed.
    The battery first of all was not good at all. The phone couldn't last 5 hours with minimal use, even though I keep wifi and location off at all times... the device gets incredibly hot too, basically after 2 minutes of browsing my emails.
    After about 2 days of owning the device, I discovered 2 dead pixels on the screen, both on a very irritating location. I could not fix them in any way.
    The phone also acts rather slowly; much slower than my previous 800.
    The camera is also a problem: Sometimes the screen turns a darkish green, and I have to restart the phone to get it working properply.
    These are just some of the many problems I have experienced. I just wanted to get these frustrations of my chest, because I feel like I got ripped off a little by the nokia repair team... The phone wasn't in its original packaging, but in a little plastic bag... Did anyone experience something similar?
    Thanks for reading

    Clearly the 920 you received is not performing properly. In your place I would just take it back to the repair facility to have it checked out and repaired or replaced. If you wish to try some troubleshooting on your own you can start with resetting the phone from settings > about > reset my phone. This will wipe all data and settings from your phone, so please back up all you need before resetting. If the reset does not help, you can try a full complete firmware reinstall using the Software Recovery Tool on a PC. If you still have problems after that your remaining option is back to the repair centre. In any case, these methods will not fix the dead pixels. as they are a hardware fault.

  • Lumia 920 battery max 6% and empty in a few minute...

    Hi,
    Yesterday I received my new Lumia 920 (32GB black). But I have problem.
    The battery won't charge further than 6%. Even not if it is plugged to its original power adapter for 8 hours. Also not when trying to charge the battery with usb on computer. With that 6% battery I can use my 920 (with adapter attached) on all minimum settings just only for about 5 minutes. Then it will be empty and have to wait a long time before it has a bit power again. (My battery and adapter are not getting hot like another topic about batteries.)
    Please help, What do i have to do!??
    Thanks for help.
