Lumia 925 Strange behaviour

Hello. I bought a Vodafone DE Lumia 925 from Ebay. The phone appears to be SIM unlocked, because it starts with my Bulgarian SIM, but it hangs almost immediately after boot.
If I put a normal SIM card, cut to fit the dimenstions of a micro SIM, there is no problem at all, but when I put the micro sim, that worked just fine with my previous phones (Lumia 800 & Lumia 920) the phone hangs again.
There is nothing wrong with the SIM itself, because it is currently working just fine with my HTC One.
I tried soft and hard reset - nothing helps. The phone only works with a normal SIM, cut to the dimensions of a micro sim.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Edit:
The phone is running the latest firmware and both SIM cards are from the same carrier.
Solved!

If you have tested another micro SIM and that caused issues then there might actually be a problem with your phone. 
One thing worth checking is to see if all of your system apps are up to date. The easiest way to do this is by installing a free application from the MS Store called SysApp Pusher. You can then use this app to check that all of your Nokia system applications are up to date. By system applications I mean things like, access point, audio, display etc. which are items that are found under the settings menu.
Here is the store link for SysApp Pusher:

  • Nokia Lumia 925 display acting strange?

    Hello
    I am not really sure if this is some sort of hardware bug or not ! But I dont think it is normal, I will try to describe it as good as I possibly can but English its not my native language, I will try to take it on video though.
    I got my Lumia 925 few days ago (coming from L800 btw) and noticed that the display is acting little werid. Everytime I unlock the screen OR I tap the "back" button from any APP and I want to swipe the screen down/up/bottom/or else it is not responding. So everytime I close the app and I want to swipe display or click on some app (emails for example) I must wait like 1 or 1,5 second or the display wont register my touch. I dont think this is normal because I didnt have any similiar issue with L800 and thats way slower phone. I dont think that problem is me being too fast. The display is simply not registering first touch if its done too fast after unlocking or going back or multitasking.
    I tried soft reset but the problem still persist. Its not a big deal though but its really annoying cause sometimes I need to swipe really fast and the phone is just ignoring the first touch and only reacts on the second one when I need to get off the finger and touch it again.
    Any clues?
    I found a guy on forum describing similiar problem, I qoute:
    "The problem is now that when I hit the unlock button, it takes maybe a second or two for the touch screen to start working. I swipe up but nothing happens then a second later I swipe again and it works. If I lock the phone and then unlock immediately the screen normally starts working immediately but if I lock it, wait a minute and then unlock it I have to wait a second or two for the screen to start working.
    Really weird and definitely a software issue. Its not a huge issue, but is quite frustrating."

    You could try a hard reset if you like or if not send the device to a nokia care point or to point of purchase.
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
    Now using the Lumia 1520

  • Lumia 925 - GPS inaccurate after WP8.1 update

    I have been using my Lumia 925 to track my jogs for half a year (using Sportstracker and Endomondo apps). Also, I use a separate sports clock with GPS. My phone and the sports clock have been givin really similar results. Couple of weeks back I updated my phone with WP8.1. After the update, my Lumia 925 has started giving me much longer distances (about 500 metres difference on a 10 km run) on my jogs compared to the sports clock. When looking into the tracked routes of the runs on the map, it can be clearly seen that the route is not as accurate as they used to be.
    Did the WP8.1 update do some changes to the GPS finctionality, and how this issue could be solved?

    interesting. not sure if any behaviour has changed with the WP8.1 update, but have u checked you are up to date with the latest firmware version and also the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store?also try performing a soft reset, and see if anyone else has reported this bug to SportsTracker or Endomondo.

  • Lumia 925 noise cancelling mic problems

    I have two problem, questions:
    First, I lived in Kuwait and there I bought a Nokia lumia 925 with 12 months Nokia warranty, however I moved back to my home country, is the warranty valid here too?
    -the real problem- :
    Unfortunately I need it since the noise cancelling Mic does not work on it. The other microphone at the bottom of the phone works great, because during a phone call there is no problem, they hear me.
    However I expected today, when I recorded a video and played it back, it was not mute, but it was like the phone would be in water, I only heard strange muffled sounds. I looked after it, I had been cleaning it for an hour: I blew air into the top microphone with a pump, with my mouth... It did not succeed, it got a little bit better, since now that strange sound is more quiet, and when I shout in it , I can hear it.
    Anyway it does not even work while I am recording in the OneNote app.
    It is not a solution, it is still terrible.
    Please help me!

    Hi DaGentleman,
    Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions! 
    Try to use the Nokia Software Recovery Tool and then check if it helps. See this link for more info: Nokia Software Recovery Tool. If that doesn't help, we suggest sending it back to a Nokia Care Point in Kuwait. Try to search it using this link: Nokia Care Point. 

  • Lumia 925 Display Problem ! !

    strange mate, it is normal for a handset to heat up a little during processor intensive tasks such as gaming or heavy web browsing. have you checked that you are up to date with the latest firwmare for your device along with the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store.

  • 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.
    EDIT:

    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.

  • Waves in camera in lumia 925

    When i open the camera of lumia 925 , i observe waves on screen. And it is more visible when i use nokia smart can app. Is there any problem with the display?

    hi mate, are you ensurign that you are using the Nokia Camera app from the Store? this replaces Nokia Smart Cam, and since users have uninstalled Nokia Smart Camera they have had theirproblems alleviated.
    if however, this doesn't change the behaviour of your screen, and that you have checked that you are up to date with the latest firmware and Nokia system app updates from the Store, then try performing a soft reset.

  • 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

  • APEX Listener and EPG - strange behaviour

    Hi
    For some years, I've used EPG for APEX but have struggled with performance particularly as I can have up to 150 student developers using at any one time.
    I do a fair amount of work using ORDImage and have successfully developed APEX applications to upload image files and display full-size and thumbnail images.
    After upgrading to APEX 4.1 (from 4.0), I decided to install APEX Listener standalone.
    Before I did so I checked that my applications still worked in 4.1 and they did.
    However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.
    Configuring APEX Listener and running the same application through that DOES display the images.
    So this part of the application works under APEX Listener but not under EPG.
    My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed upload. Under EPG it works as expected and I get a success confirmation.
    So this part of the application works under EPG but not under APEX Listener.
    Has anyone else come across different behaviour depending on the mode of connection?
    Thanks

    [Oracle EE 11gR2, Windows Server 2008R2, APEX 4.1, APEX Listener 1.1.3]

    Hi Brian,
    it sounds like you have both EPG and APEX Listener running on the same machine, so your problem might result from a port conflict. Note that both services use TCP port 8080 as default.
    At least a port conflict would explain the strange behaviour in your case, some things working on one web server and some on the other.
    Some parts of your initial post hint to that direction, e.g.
    However, just installing APEX Listener but not configuring it (yet) has meant that my image display in a report using a procedure based on >wpg_docload.download_file( l_ordimage_image.source.localData ) no longer works in EPG - the images are not displayed.... because the APEX Listener only interfere with the EPG if it is at least running on the same machine as your database and furthermore, if it is unconfigured in terms of ist database connection, a port conflict might be the only way it could cause anything like that.
    However, if you are sure that's not the issue, please check if you see any error in the APEX Listener's log for the following action you performed:
    My application also allows users to upload images from APEX_APPLICATION_FILES using standard code. Under APEX Listener after uploading, I'm left with a blank >page with a wwv_flow.accept URL although the image does indeed uploadIf you actually see just a blank screen, something very bad must have happened and you should see some kind of stack trace there.
    For further investigations, if necessary, it would be helpful to know how you deployed or started your APEX Listener and which JDK version you use.
    For the moment, I still think the port conflict is my best guess.
    You could avoid it by either changing the port for EPG (I'd not recommend that if you have other users still using it) or by changing the port for your APEX Listener.

  • Strange behaviour of Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command)

    hello guys,
    i wrote a program which executes some commands in commandline (actually tried multiple stuff.)
    what did i try?
    open "cmd.exe" manually (administrator)
    type "echo %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" and hit enter, which returns me
    "AMD64"
    type "java -version" and hit enter, which returns me:
    "java version "1.6.0_10-beta"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-beta-b25)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0-b12, mixed mode)"
    type "reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\7-zip"" returns me:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\7-zip
    Path REG_SZ C:\Program Files\7-Zip\
    i wrote two functions to execute an command
    1) simply calls exec and reads errin and stdout from the process started:
    public static String execute(String command) {
              String result = "";
              try {
                   // Execute a command
                   Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);
                   // Read from an input stream
                   InputStream in = child.getInputStream();
                   int c;
                   while ((c = in.read()) != -1) {
                        result += ((char) c);
                   in.close();
                   in = child.getErrorStream();
                   while ((c = in.read()) != -1) {
                        result += ((char) c);
                   in.close();
              } catch (IOException e) {
              return result;
         }the second function allows me to send multiple commands to the cmd
    public static String exec(String[] commands) {
              String line;
              String result = "";
              OutputStream stdin = null;
              InputStream stderr = null;
              InputStream stdout = null;
              // launch EXE and grab stdin/stdout and stderr
              try {
                   Process process;
                   process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe");
                   stdin = process.getOutputStream();
                   stderr = process.getErrorStream();
                   stdout = process.getInputStream();
                   // "write" the parms into stdin
                   for (int i = 0; i < commands.length; i++) {
                        line = commands[i] + "\n";
                        stdin.write(line.getBytes());
                        stdin.flush();
                   stdin.close();
                   // clean up if any output in stdout
                   BufferedReader brCleanUp = new BufferedReader(
                             new InputStreamReader(stdout));
                   while ((line = brCleanUp.readLine()) != null) {
                        result += line + "\n";
                   brCleanUp.close();
                   // clean up if any output in stderr
                   brCleanUp = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(stderr));
                   while ((line = brCleanUp.readLine()) != null) {
                        result += "ERR: " + line + "\n";
                   brCleanUp.close();
              } catch (IOException e) {
                   // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                   e.printStackTrace();
              return result;
         }so i try to execute the commands from above (yes, i am using \\ and \" in java)
    (1) "echo %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%"
    (2) "java -version"
    (3) "reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\7-zip""
    the first function returns me (note that ALL results are different from the stuff above!):
    (1) "" <-- empty ?!
    (2) java version "1.6.0_11"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
    Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing)
    (3) ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
    the second function returns me:
    (1) x86 <-- huh? i have AMD64
    (2) java version "1.6.0_11"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
    Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing)
    (3) ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value.
    horray! in this version the java version is correct! processor architecture is not empty but totally incorrect and the reg query is still err.
    any help is wellcome
    note: i only put stuff here, which returns me strange behaviour, most things are working correct with my functions (using the Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command); code)
    note2: "reg query "HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\CentralProcessor\0" /t REG_SZ" IS working, so why are "some" queries result in ERR, while they are working if typed by hand in cmd.exe?

    ok, i exported a jar file and execute it from cmd:
    java -jar myjar.jar
    now the output is:
    (1) "" if called by version 1, possible to retrieve by version 2 (no clue why!)
    (2) "java version "1.6.0_10-beta"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_10-beta-b25)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 11.0-b12, mixed mode)"
    (3) C:\Program Files\7-Zip\
    so all three problems are gone! (but its a hard way, as i need both functions and parse a lot of text... :/ )
    thanks for the tip, that eclipse changes variables (i really did not knew this one...)

  • View Master mode strange behaviour with jpg files

    Hy all,
    I'm using Aperture, and I'm tweakin a lot the SW to discover all secrets ....
    I'm really concerned about a strange behaviour of the SW in view mode.
    If I open a jpg file, do not apply ANY modification, and apply the "show master" command (pressing M), there's a subtle behaviour :
    *the images get sharper !!!!*
    It behaves as if an "edge sharpening" was applied !!!!!!
    With _RAW files this thing doesn't happen at all._
    Even stranger, if I zoom to full definition (by pressing Z), and toggle between normal view and "show master" view, the immage remains the same !
    The effect is not so evident with all images, but sometimes it is !!
    Anyway, I expect not to have such kind of things with a professional SW.
    With professional cameras and good quality files it's really annoying not to beeing sure what's the REAL content of the jpg image.
    Has anyone noted this thing ? Is there a reasonable explanation ?
    The only one I tried to figure out is the following : may be Aperture applies some kind of resampling algorithm with jpg files (bicubic, bilinear, etc).
    May be this resampling is not applied with 100% magnification, as weel as with raw files.
    But it's only my guessing. Now, I'm tweaking other viewers and other SW to understand what's the real jpg image stored in the file : the blurer one form normal view or the sharper one with "show master" mode.
    I stress once again : of course, the jpg file I'm talking about have no settings at all, just imported and toggled with M button.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Enzo

    Hy,
    I'm afraid I'm not been clear.
    The problem is this :
    1) jpg image opened in normal view mode, no zoom, (no quick preview, of course) : image with a certain amount of blour
    2) jpg image opened in show master mode, no zoom, (no quick previre, of course) : image SHARPER with respect with the previous.
    No edit applied from import, so "show master" command shouln't apply any change in rendering, should it ?
    The only thing I said on 100% view is that such difference (between normal mode e show mastermode) is not present with 100% magnification.
    That was the issue.

  • Lumia 925 swtiches off all of a sudden

    #NokiaIndia i hope at least you will hear my plea ,  in the month of december 2013 i got a Lumia 925 as a Birthday gift from my sisters. It worked fine , i loved each and every feature in that phone in fact it was an amazing change from my samsung S3 . Sadly right after 12 months  while using an app, My phone just got switched off and it never is On till date. So immediately the very next day as any other Nokia Customer would do , I just went to the #NokiaCare , Explained to them about all the issues and i was ready to pay for all the damages just to get my phone back in Hand They registered and wrote all my issues with details, asked to pay an advance of Rs 50 to find out the issue and let me know. After a couple of hours I had to call back myself to  the customer care unit and find out the update. They asked me to come to the service care, once I reached the service care I was taken by surprise, The Manager from the Koramangala service centre delibrately put a pin between the screen and body of the phone and says your screen has been damaged and you need to pay 12,000 rupees as the screen and touch are in built, Later after few mins the technical person who diagnosed the phone came out and says due to water log problem the phone is not re-booting, If that is the problem you need to pay 4500 Rs.
    I asked them if this can be fixed and they were not sure if they could do it or not. With a hope I had given my phone would be reapired and I get a callr 4-5 days just to tell me that the screen is shattered from the inside and the hardware has been crashed , Then i asked them for the estimate they gave me a sum amount of 15,000, Where Rs 10000 for replacing the harware component and additional 500rs as service cost . I asked them about the warranty and they told me warranty can't be used to cover physical damage .  . Suddenly to my horror one of the Service agent gave me a call and tells me ''Sir sorry to say this Only your phone screen can be repaired and not the hardware component'' . I asked them ''What's the use of a phone which i can't use to make calls'' . they just give me a reply saying ''I Don't know'' . I Wonder how did #Nokia Service Agents instead of treating a Customer as King as well as satisfy them with their complaints say something like that ? I Believe #NokiaIndia #Nokia #Lumia is known for their durability .  Depressed and Unhappy i went to the care center they gave me back my phone , Giving it a look i found that the casing wasn't done properly.SO my question is why do I have to to shell out Rs 15000 while I can get a new phone for 25,000 Rs onine.  Its not like i broke the phone into two and gave it to the #Nokiacare just to do some miracle and get it back alive . Its totally a functioning phone , Really Disappointing customer care service firstly , charging a bomb to the customer just to repair it .  JUST 13 months OLD PHONE WORTH 30K .. Am i supposed to just forget the phone ?? or do i get any justice at all ? But seriously thanks to the amazing Nokia Care agents who Indirectly asked me to just forget my phone . Really disappointing , I pray that no one should go through a situation just like this . Spending a Bombshell for the phone and the company themselves can't repair what they made ... Hopefully someone serves justice to Customers who would have faced similar experience from the official #Nokia #Nokiacare service executives . Or does it just happen in India because of the emotion-less Service agents that i encountered with . #Nokia #Lumia #NokiaIndia #Microsoft. Hope this goes Viral and my phone gets replaced or repaired .
    Thanking you

  • Strange behaviour: two servers on the same port

    Hi!
    I hope this is the right section for this post. I need help about a strange behaviour involving a ServerSocket.
    For my thesis I need to write a program that receives data from a pre-existing DSMS client, filters them and then sends them to a pre-existing DSMS server. And here is my problem: if I try to create a ServerSocket on the same port of the DSMS server, my program throws no exception, and the servers seem running on the same port. This is a behaviour that I'd like to avoid, but I cannot understand what the problem is. Can you help me?
    The source code of the DSMS server can be found here (it's written in C++): http://infolab.stanford.edu/stream/code/stream-0.6.0.tar.gz
    The source code of my server class, instead, is this one:
    import java.io.*;
    import java.net.*;
    public class ThreadGenerator {
         private ServerSocket server;
         public void connect(String servPort, String cHost, String cPort) {
              try {
                   server = new ServerSocket(servPort);
                   System.out.println("SERVER running on port "+servPort);
              } catch (BindException e) {
                   System.out.println("Address already in use!");
              } catch (Exception e) {
                   System.err.println(e);
              try {
                   while(true){
                        Socket client = server.accept();
                        StreamThread T = new StreamThread(client, cHost, cPort);
                        T.start();
              } catch (EOFException e) {
                   System.out.println("Server closed connection!");
              } catch (Exception e) {
                   System.err.println(e);
    }I'm programming on Mac OSX Tiger, with Java 1.5.0.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    The problem is still happening to me, I tried in this very moment. The code I'm using is the one I posted, and the second server is the one that I linked. I don't think there's anything else to add.
    If you're sure that the problem is not in my code, then it means that it is in the linked server, which partially solves the problem. But I'd like to know, if it's possibile, if there is any other way to check if the port is already in use.
