Lumia 925 disabled mike and voice recording issues...

Dear Nokia Team
It has been a unpleasant experience dealing with the Nokia Care centre.
I have not got any solution for the complaint registered. Its been over 45 days now.
Inspite of escalating the matter several times i have not got any response
and solution from the concerned team. Its a horrible experience and i wouldnt recommend nokia to anyone henceforth.
The problem of Out going audio on loud speaker mode and voice recording has
been not functioning after 8.1 Update and this has been a common problem
with lot of 925 users. This problem has occurred due to some issues in the
mother board of the device.
And is within the scope of warranty terms and conditions.
As highlighted by several lumia 925 users, this is a common problem with this intrument.
The handset is under normal wear and tear conditions and still i have been
denied any service under warranty.
This is absolutely unprofessional attitude from the Nokia team.
Henceforth, i would be compelled to highlight this matter to social media
followed with legal complaint.
Its been a non satisfying and unhappy experience dealing with Nokia.
I would be escalating this matter.
Thanks for such a great service !!

hi mate we are a user to user forum only so cannot assist you here. u need to persist with your Nokia Care location and if they are not being helpful, then escalate the issue to head office of Nokia in your region.

Lumia 925, earpiece audio trouble (voice calls)

Background: I am a T-Mobile USA subscriber. Previously owned a Lumia 710, then switched to 810 when it became available. Great products; I've been very happy with both. Two weeks ago gave the 810 to another family member and got the Lumia 925.
I love the 925. The screen is great, the phone is light, and the camera amazing. Except for one thing. The first day I had the 925, I noticed that the audio from the earpiece did not no sound right. While on calls, the earpiece had a nasty buzz to it, sounding like a damaged speaker. The audio quality while on speakerphone was perfect, so I could not blame T-Mobile's network. I took the phone back to T-Mobile and they replaced it, no questions asked.
The second 925 sounded great. The earpiece audio was clear, without any buzzing or audio glitches. I was a happy man and everything was great, that is, until yesterday. Now the second 925 developed a similar bad audio quality during calls, but only from the earpiece. The speakerphone sounds fine, and using a bluetooth headset sounds fine also. It is not easy to describe the "badness" of the audio but there is a significant decrease in quality. The audio level seems to be down; with the volume all the way up, you can barely hear the other caller. The audio also has a buzzy, muffled quality to it, almost as if it is coming out of a tin can, and it is not easy to understand the caller. I tried calling my old Lumia 810 and the sound on the 810 is just fine. The trouble seems to be only the earpiece on the 925.
This morning I went back to T-Mobile and they replaced the SIM card. I'm not sure how that would help, but they said it should help if this is a network issue. That was 5 hours ago and the audio quality has not improved at all. I have also performed a full phone reset, then reloaded my previous settings, but the problem persists. At this point it appears to be a hardware issue, but it is very odd that it happened on the first 925 right away, and on the replacement one as well, but after two weeks. Beside the bad earpiece audio the phone works great. The apps work as they should, and the camera is lovely, but if I first need the device to function as a phone.
I am debating if I should try a third Lumia 925. I am a bit reluctant, as I'm afraid that it might break again. At least now it is within the 30 day return period, but what if this issue happens later? I would love to stick with Lumia but these issues with the 925 are worrisome.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.

I'm having the same problem with my Nokia Lumia 925. Voice in the earpiece audio is otherwise ok but when the other person is saying the S-letter in a word the earpiece audio makes it sound like other person is having a lisp or something. It's really annoying. Same effect comes when other person on the line is inhaling or exhaling. There is this whoosh sound the earpiece is making on S-letters, inhale - exhale sounds and on other low frequency background noices. Phone was like this from my first calls after unboxing. ...
I was thinking how to describe my audio problems with 925 but you did it perfectly! I have exactly the same problems with the S-letters, inhaling, exhaling etc. which makes every voice call more or less annoying experience.
I was thinking to replace the unit but the longer I read this thread, the more I start to think this is "a feature" i.e. bad design and/or poor HW choices. That said, ff this is so common issue, I wonder howcome there wasn't anything about this in those several reviews L925 was subjected to when it was released. Or are the reviewers so busy in testing the 'smart phone' feature that they do not spend time to mundane stuff like voice call quality.
I love the phone otherwise; looks great, has fantastic camera, crisp and cleat display - anyhow, had I known about this, I would have left this to the store.

I was making a Skype call from my Lumia 925 yesterday and with Skype the earpiece audio was clear and there was no whooshing disturbing the call. So i guess the speaker is working properly in Lumia 925 but the problem might be in 3G/4G reception (or somewhere else) that disturbs the call quality creating this whooshing in a call.
Havent' tried myself but if this is true, this starts to sound like some voice codec issue. ...which would be strange since one would think that the same speech encoding/decoding implementations are used in all Lumias so why would there be problems specifically in 925.
The good with this option would be that it's probably possible to fix with SW update. Provided that Nokia is aware of the problem or better yet, interested to anything about it.

Lumia 925 8.10.14176.243 sound issue

Hi,
I am part of the Developers preview and have installed all previous updates with no problem.
I updated to 8.10.14176.243 on my Lumia 925 about a week ago and have discovered that a strange sound problem has happened. Upon a restart of the phone, the ringtones & alarms will work for approx 2 days and will then cease to functions. Alarms and new
calls fire visually (and the phone vibrates as expected) however there are no sounds coming from the phone.
If I go into the ringtone section, I cannot hear them when I preview them
A reboot fixes this issue, but then it happens again
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

release that is not related to developing an application) to the Microsoft Community website. (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphone/forum/wpdp )

Adobe Flash Player and Voice Recorder

Hi,
I'm a new blackberry user and have a few questions...
I tried downloading the adobe flash player so I can play some videos online... but no luck... is this not possible? i downloaded the adobe player for mobile PC with no luck...
Another question is ... When recording on the voice recorder... it doesn't record anything... it saves and records... but when I play it... there's a sound of me pressing the "record" button and then nothing... am I doing something wrong?
Thank you!

Flash player is not available for Blackberry devices. This means you won't be able to download any player from Adobe site.
Try having a soft reset (pulling battery out for 30 sec.) to your device and then try voice recording.

Micro and Voice Record

Not a complaint, a testimonial!
Been using the Micro since end Jan this year. It's been a lifesaver during 2.5 hours of daily commute on the train and subway. Audible Books, Podcasts and of course my Music.
Wanted to mention another great utility in the Micro, the Voice Recorder.
My wife had minor surgery recently and after it was over, the Doc came out with some very clear pictures of the results (to him at least) and walked me, and my mother-in-law, through a little running commentary. Needless to say, on my own I'd never remember a tenth of what he said, but I pulled out my trusty little Micro and turned on the recorder.
The next day we're at home and the wife is coherent again and I pulled out the pictures, hooked up the Micro, and played back his dialogue word for word! She feels better hearing his words, I feel better because nothing he said was missed by me.
One word, Awesome!
Some of you probably use this facility daily, but I'll bet many have forgotten it's even an option on the Micro. Hopefully you'll find this useful.

Hey,
I said it urgent because ...i have to show up a
up a model to my client how it works out!.......if i
won't show him a model...atleast...how can belive me?Well, we certainly don't. Personally, I wouldn't take on a client for a project that I had no clue how to accomplish - I consider that unethical. Even worse, if your original requirements are the real ones, you're selling your client a load of bullshit - you cannot deliver what you've promised.
I sincerely hope your client doesn't believe you - because you're not telling them the truth...

Disable restart and state record in Application Engine

Hi All,
can any one explain me elaborately about disable restart check box in advanced properties of an ae program ? What s the relation for this check box with state record of types i.e sql table or derived work record

When you set the application engine to enable restart your state record needs to be a database record, so that the application eninge can continue where it left off with all values in the state record on that state.
When you set the application engine to disable restart your state record can be a work record, because the application engine will always restart from the beginning, not using any variables from the staterecord.

Huge Network and Voice quality issues with Xperia T2 Ultra Dual

Same problem here after one month.
Voice cracking can't hear other party while having full signal strength.

Hi @Mayur9 Go to Call settings -> General -> and disable the "Slow talk option" if it is enabled. If the issue persists, boot your device in Safe mode to check what happens: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/FAQ/How-to-boot-your-phone-into-safe-mode/m-p/348008#U348008 Also I suggest you to first run a backup of the device information like this: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/FAQ/Backup-amp-Transfer/m-p/407253#U407253 Try performing a system repair using PC Companion: http://support.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/pc-companion/ This will factory reset your phone and erase all data. You might need tocharge your device for about 1-2 hours before so the device has at least 80% battery. Make sure the device is not connected to computer or laptop and turned off (sometimes you have to press power button and volume up until the device vibrates 3 times or on some devices you have to press the small button near the SIM tray or on the back of the device). Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process. If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP. I hope can be useful. I'm at disposal for any question. Best Regards,

Voice Recording Issue - Zen Micro

Hello,
I have the 5Gb version of the Zen Micro and I'm running it with version ..0 of the software. I'm a Uni'versity student and I use the device for recording lectures. It records properly but I like to off load the files to my main computer and sometimes I'll share them with absent classmates.
I've had this device for over a year now and I'm usually able to drag and drop the files using the Creative MediaSource Organizer version 3.30.2. In the past this has NOT been a huge issue because if the drag and drop fails to copy the file, or if it errors out when copying, I usually just reboot the player and try again.
Sometimes it takes awhile but I've only NOT been able to get file off of the device. To give you some idea of how much I use it, I'm in either 4-5 classes a semester and I tape almost all of them. Like I said...in the past year that I've had it, I have only had file that I couldn't copy off the player.
Today, I tried to copy recordings over but nothing is working. I know the files on the player are OK because I listented to the one that was erroring and it's there, I just can't get it off the player. A classmate needs these copies but I can't get them to him becuase of these errors. NOTHING works. I've tried dragging and droping, synching even following the links when it errored and Microsoft told me to come here for updates.
I should also add that I've tried copying many different files off of the device today...not just the first one on the list and nothing will copy.
I have ALLL the updates installed and still no copying. What can I do? Am I outta luck?Message Edited by John-OKC5 on 09-9-2006 09:20 PM

Like I mentioned in my first post, it has ALWAYS been a problem getting the recordings off the device. It's never just worked, like soo many other devices do.
Next, it was only in the past 3-4 months that the marginally working methods completly failed me. However, during the WHOLE time I've had the device, I've always had my FW and VS software up and running. So I was able to copy files off the device but it was problematic. However, nothing has changed in the past 3-4 months except what used to partially work...no longer works or is limping along. Rolling back is not an option because there is no point in time where it worked w/o failing.
Finally, Creative devolopers can always be of help because they are familiar with how their products work. They may not guarantee no conflicts and in all honesty I'm not saying they should. However, they should be acti've in this forum to help resolve issues....but in the threads I've seen...no developers.
Oh and when I told Windows to send the error report, it came back with a message that the creative developers have a fix for the problem. However, when I click on the link it takes me to the patch for the device and/or the newest version of creative media source. BOTH OF WHICH I ALREADY HAVE.....so really, they don't have a solution for the problem.Message Edited by John-OKC5 on 09-2-2006 0:53 PM

Iphone 5s phone and voice mail issues

phone app keeps freezing and the voicemails i receive cannot be listened to as the play button is greyed out. I have just started this in the last week for no obvious reason.
I turn it off and on and I am on the latest software. It is a real pain as I have work calls coming through to this phone and I can't hear the message without dialling into my voicemail manually a la 1990.
Apart from reinstalling the phone software any suggestions? I have deleted all my old voicemails and deleted voicemail in case that helped but no change.

"Apart from re installing the phone software any suggestions?"
The guy asked this. When it comes to voice mail the only way to re-install the software is to do a restore.
Now this is where you maybe getting lost.
"If you're not wanting to do a restore try doing a two button reset by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button (power button) at the same time until the phone shuts off"
Now I am being smart and I'm done arguing with you on here.
I am right in what I was trying to get across.

Compare ipad2 with ipad3, garageband for acoustic guitar and voice recording, backing tracks.

I am interested in purchasing an ipad for recording music using garageband, acoustic guitar & vocals, and using to add rhythm/bass, to create tracks to use in performing solo gigs.
After reading about problems many were experiencing with NOISE after upgrading to an ipad3, and a GB upgrade, I am not sure if this
is a viable purchase. If this is my main use of the ipad (along with itunes, chart storage and general use for solos gigs), should I be going in this direction, or more of a simple recording studio?
Is ipad2 just as good as ipad3 for this main purpose?
Any advice would be helpful,
Thanks,
walkman1187

Assuming it does not have a pickup, any instrument that the microphone picks up can be recorded.
(If it does have a pickup, you can probably just plug it in.)
GarageBand is simply a fancy tape recorder. Anything that can be converted to an audio frequency electrical signal can be recorded.
Unless this is like the joke where the man with the broken hand asks his doctor whether he will be able to play the violin when his hand heals. "Sure." the doctor replies. "That's great!" says the man, "I couldn't play it before!"

Cisco VG224 Voice recording Issue.

I have a VG224 with several analog phones configured for SCCP. I am using a VoIP recording solution where the packets are dumped into an RSPAN session and ultimately have a SPAN session going to a sniffer port on the recording server. This works great for most calls, but it would seem that when one analog phone calls another analog phone, this RTP stream never hits the switch, and thus is never dumped into the RSPAN session. Has anyone had success using a VoIP recording solution with a VG224 in this situation? Do we have another solution please advise.
Shahid Zafar

I am not sure what version you are running, but baseer seems to have a good ideas. I would personally serach the bug tookil and see if anything looks reasonable, if it doesn't then I would open a TAC case as its probably affecting other customers and can be resolved properly in the code.

Nokia Lumia 925 Windows,Back and Search keys don't...

Today i bought NL925 and found that Windows,Back and Search keys don't glow. When i contacted customer care i was told to contact Nokia Care Center. has anybody got the same problem ?

Hi, sasidhar_d.
Where did you purchase your phone? Did you try any troubleshooting on the phone? If yes, what are they? Have you tried restarting your phone by pressing and holding the Power and Volume down keys simultaneously for 10-15 seconds? If yes and it didn't work, it would be best to go and coordinate this immediately to your point of purchase since you just got the phone. Make sure to take the receipt with you.
By the way, which customer care did you contact? Keep us posted.

Lumia 925 camera

Hi. I bought a new phone. When I start taking pictures, I quickly find out that something is wrong. All pictures look like they are out of focus on top left side. When I send phone to service, they say nothing is wrong. They said that all Lumia 925 are making the same photos. Can anybody send me your pictures, taken with Lumia 925 for comparison and to have proof they are wrong. If any of the people from Nokia are reading this, I also post 3 photos taken with my phone.
I also search for possible problems that make this affect. Angled lens make similar affect. If you whant more details, contact me.
From such a product like Nokia Lumia I didn't expect such a problem.

How are you taking the photos , physical camera button, onscreen camera button or touch to focus and take ? The only one that looks to be 'out of focus' is the third one , which actually looks more blown out due to the light source. All the photos look to be focussed perfectly in the centre in each case. I honestly don't know if there is a fault with your phone, but as you have already had the phone checked I just wonder if there is anything you may be doing inadvertantly that is affecting the result ?
Also which camera app are you using, you don't by any chance use the standard camera app and have the default set at close up ? As I say I really don't know the cause of your issue but if it has been checked I am just trying to think of possible reasons . You can of course try Nokia Care again.
Good Luck

Lumia 925 - BSOD

Hi,
Today my Lumia 925 was unresponsive and stuck. I have power reset the device and it was restarted but this time stuck on BSOD with a sad face on it, I tried to power reset the device multiple times but no success. Then I tried to factory restore the device, now it is showing updating screen and a progress bar but it is never completing the setup.
I visit to Nokia Service Center and their technician told me my main board has some power issues and need to replace and it would cost more than INR 13,000. I am very upset with their suggestion because my mobile hardware is functioning and it is seems a OS issue.
Can someone please advise me.
Thank you.
Hiraman Shrestha

If Nokia Care says that, I guess that's what it really is. You can try re-installing the OS using the Lumia Recovery Tool, but I'm afraid it might behave the same again.

Control record issue !

Hi All,
I am handling UK Payroll and got an issues related to payroll run and control record,
Issue 1: The payroll driver (RPCALCG0) has skipped around 1500 Employees against payroll run for particular period
Issue 2: How control record allowed user to Exit control record for period in which EE's skipped in payroll
Please provide your valuable suggesting in regard to resolve the above two issues,
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Devendra Reddy D.

Hi,
Issue 1: The payroll driver (RPCALCG0) has skipped around 1500 Employees against payroll run for particular period
Say you want to run payroll for FEB..
But payroll control record may not be in FEB... It may be in March..
Issue 2: How control record allowed user to Exit control record for period in which EE's skipped in payroll
Payroll control record may have been deleted on the month of Jan..& been set in Release mode in March month directly...
So feb month gets skipped & Exit mode in Feb is skipped too...
For detailed info.. Go to PA03 enter payroll ares & click display option..
Under Go To tab.. look for Control Record Log..
Regards,
Veeram
