Lumia 928...Menu alphabet headers missing?

Hi everyone,
Yesterday I got a new Lumia 928 through insurance to replace the one I shattered (whoops). The new phone is all set up and updated with the Amber update, however the menu screen no longer has alphabet headers.
I know it's not a huge deal, but the headers were very helpful. Does anyone have any tips to get it back??
Thanks!

Have the same problem and thought that might be the case. It would be great if we could have the option to set the letter headers as a default.

Lumia 928 Won't connect to facebook chat

For a couple weeks, my Lumia 928 will not connect to Facebook chat regardless of being connected to data or WiFi. Any troubleshooting tips?

HI,
Do you have the Develop menu activated in your Safari menu bar? If so, click Develop / User Agent - Safari 5.0.2 Mac or whichever version of Safari you have installed.

Lumia 928 - FM radio, Why did you not enable it ?

Hey all,
I am really upset about this. For months I have been expecting and waiting GRD2 update to give me the FM radio feature and Now it finally comes down and it does not have FM radio on it. WHY ??????
Nokia publicy said that ONLY the Lumia 620 does not support FM radio. I can quote someone from the Nokia 800 number that the hardware supports it but waiting for the software update. I have seen on a site where the phone was pulled apart and confirmed it has the correct chipset for it. Microsoft enabled it in that version of the software (the version on my phone matches what Microsoft shows). With all the info that I have found, this phone 100% supports this feature, why was it not enabled ?
I use it to listen to sports radio, I can't get streaming but, I can get over local FM. Never mind streaming uses data as FM radio does not use any. MLB wants to charge me $40+ a year to stream games that I can get over FM.
This was a very long waited feature and I sold a HTC 8X to move to the Lumia 928, THe HTC 8X IS getting FM but, the high end 928 does not ?
The phone does not support it is BS, I want real reason WHY it was not enabled. Is this because Verizon did not want it enabled or is this because Nokia didn't want to enable it ?
No excuses any more, what is the story here ?

It's a bit silly to buy something and expect it to have a certain feature in the future based on rumours, not facts.
Several WP8 models lack the required internal hardware to enable FM radio and Nokia never claimed that these models would ever get that feature. The missing hardware could be antenna linkages or even chips but thats irrelevant because it is not possible to enable FM radio on those models. If you want an official statement you need to contact Nokia US directly as they are responsible for that model. The users and moderators of this forum don't have access to information about decisions between Nokia and Verizon on whether a feature should be included or not.
All you can do is either buy an external FM headset, live without the feature or sell your phone. Either way there is nothing more that can be said here or done about it. Arguing about who's fault it is or why it doesn't have it is just pointless.

Lumia 928 Front-Cam Pictures are Yellow

Hello,
After the recent Amber update, the phones takes HORRIBLE front-camera photos. The white balance settings don't help at all and everything is given a yellow tint - people look like a cartoon from the Simpsons. Please tell me this is being addressed in an update that won't make me wait until GDR3... I'm going back to school soon and I'd really like to show off the camera quality especially since it is such a beautiful phone. Please fix this, I miss taking photos on my phone.
In addition, the pro-cam gives a yellow tint and softens images in the hi-res review. I thought it would give the full HD review?
Thank you,
- Alex

My safari menu bar is missing --the menu bar for desktop, HD, and apps appears, but when I click on Safari, it disappears, so I can no longer see my buttons for History, etc. I think my husband (pc user) clicked it away. Any ideas how to retrieve it?

My safari menu bar is missing. The menu bar for desktop, HD, and apps appears, but when I click on Safari, it disappears, so I can no longer see my buttons for History, etc. I think my husband (pc user) clicked it away when borrowing my computer. Any ideas how to retrieve it? Thanks.

I too was having the same problem However, I could access both the menu bar and the dock by hovering my mouse over them so it wasn't a huge problem but I prefered having it there anyway. I was not in full screen mode and I could still go into full screen mode if I wanted to. I found the easiest solution was to just quit safai and restart it, but it might not work for you considering you couldn't access you menu bar either way.
I found this article that allows you to hide/show the menu bar and the dock through TextEdit (didn't work for me) http://www.mactricksandtips.com/2009/07/hide-the-menubar-or-dock-in-specific-app s.html It is pretty old so it might not work for lion and a bit risky if you don't know what you're doing so I wouldn't really recommend doing it this way.
And KSheppard, I know it's not really any of my buisness, but the way to get answers to a question isn't by insulting others and being quick-tempered. Even if you feel like you were insulted first, don't try snapping at people who aren't obligated to help you. Honestly, it just makes everything easier if everybody is cooperative and polite.

Installed the update tonight and now my phone (Lumia 928) won't power up. I've tried a soft reset, but the screen goes from the Nokia logo to a red Verizon screen to a black screen. What's wrong and how do I fix it? Help!

Installed the update tonight and now my phone (Lumia 928) won't power up. I've tried a soft reset, but the screen goes from the Nokia logo to a red Verizon screen to a black screen. Tried it 10 times with the same result. What's wrong and how do I fix it? Help!

Oh no Mr.Ected!
I can see if we can get your phone back on! I understand how important it is to have a phone. Have you tried this to see if we can get it back on? http://vz.to/1DZhteH . If it is still goes to a red Verizon screen and then to black we might need to do a master reset. While the phone is off try this:http://vz.to/1DZhXkU Be mindful this is the last resort because it will erase everything on the phone. If you have done back up assistant in the past you will be able to get you contacts back. Please let me know if you need any more help.

Did you have the phone set to backup things to the One Drive on Microsoft servers?

All Lumia 928 folders are 'read-only'

So all of a sudden, all the folders on my Lumia 928 are marked as read-only regardless of the PC it is plugged into, and I can no longer drag and drop files between the phone and PC because of it - it tells me I don't have permission or something like that. Not only that, the read-only checkbox is greyed out as you can see in the attachment, so I can't uncheck it to fix the problem. No dedicated software (Zune, Windows Phone Software) works either, and I have exhausted all possibilitiues I can think of.
It's clearly something with the phone since it happens on all PCs, and I suspect a setting, but I can't figure out which. If anyone has any thoughts, I'd welcome them.

Factory Reset doesn't work on Spinning Gears lumia 928

Hello,
Last night i was struck with the Spinning Gears on my Nokia Lumia 928. I researched it a bit to see what i could do to fix it, sadly it didn't help much. most people said to Factory Reset the phone (Up volume, down volume, power, down volume.) But it does absolutely nothing at all. I get no ! when i reset the phone. All it does is show the word Nokia then spinning gears. People also said just reset it a few times and it will work, from wen i started counting i reset it over 30 times and let the gears spin for 8 hours. The phone doesn't charge ether but it will stay on if it is plugged in. Im out of ideas on how to fix this phone, and i rather not wait a few days for them to send me a new one IF they even do send me one.
If anyone has any ideas for me peoples let me know. Even if the idea is, you cant do anything bring it to the store thats fine i just wanna know if theres anything i can do.

I am stuck here. I have had the Lumia 928 for about 2.5-3 months now. I have decided to go back to Android, but want to give the phone to my son. I went to do a Factory Reset and have been stuck on Gears for 2 days. I have let the battery drain, removed the SIM, and did the following from the Nokia Support Site 5-6 times. No luck, can you help?
Step 1
Press and hold power and volume down key.
Phone vibrates (release the keys)
Right after this press and hold the volume down key down
Exclamation mark is shown on the screen (release the volume down key)
Step 2Then input the keys in the following order:
Volume up
Volume down
Power
Volume down
Step 3
The phone will reset and boot up automatically. Please note that this may take several minutes.

Nokia Lumia 928 MMS issues on unlocked device

I'm a Finnish guy and using Elisa as a carrier.
I got the chance to purchase unlocked Lumia 928 with a decent price so I checked its specifications (GSM Arena site) and also found out it could be used internationally.
It seemed to be a brilliant phone (and it sure is) so I purchased it.
But now I'm facing the problem with the MMS messages. All settings are just OK and I can send MMS messages successfully but I cannot receive them. The phone announces that "you've received a message which has media content" but when I try to open the media content, nothing happens.
This seems to be quite common problem (at least when I'm reading those most popular Windows Phone discussion forums) but I haven't found a solution to it. Someone has just said that because the phone is made for a particular carrier, it has "specialities" in its firmware. Well, the phone uses same MMS settings for sending and receiving MMS messages so how come MMS messages won't get thru to my phone correctly? I'd also like to know how the MMS firmware settiing are different between Lumia 925 and 928???
And most of all I'd like to get a remedy/solution to fix the problem from Nokia/Microsoft people Thanks a lot in advance!

Well, I suppose that even though Verizon has ordered these phones from Nokia, all the settings, applications and characteristics were preloaded to the phone at the factory. So in other words Verizon would've delivered preconfigured things to Nokia before the manufacturing process and would not start to fiddling around (=to install all the setting, apps and characteristics) when they received the phones from Nokia.
Therefore someone in Nokia/Microsoft must know the differencies between the stock firmware and the Verizon firmware, especially if we're now talking about these MMS issues. And I wanna know it. If I'd ask the same question from Verizon, they probably would not know the difference between those aforementioned firmware.
It's not rocket science, I guess it's just because of those preloaded/-configured differencies between the stock and the Verizon firmwares...

Nokia Lumia 928 Texting Problem

Just upgraded to the Lumia 928 (white) yesterday. A few hours after getting home with the device I realized I was not receiving text messages. I began to troubleshoot to the best of my knowledge. I can send/receive calls, send/receive picture messages, and send texts. The only thing I can't do is receive texts. I have had two friends both attempt to send me texts multiple times with no luck. I plan to go back to verizon today for their assistance, but was maybe hoping someone else in the forums was having the same issues. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi there Lloyd,
I had the same problem with my new 928. Doing a complete shutdown and restart fixed the issue for me. I held the middle button on the phone until the shut-down dialog opened, used that to power down and restarted about a minute later. I've had no issues with text since doing that.
Hope this helps you (and that you are having as much fun as I am with the totally awesome phone).
Regards,
Andy.

Nokia Lumia (928) Problem.

I've recently been having this problem with my Nokia Lumia 928, I was doing a reset (Factory Reset) on my phone when I've been on spinning gears for a few couples last night. Waited and nothing, so I looked around and tried find other solutions.
I did the soft reset/hard reset but all I've been getting is the low battery, I plug it into the charger for a good 30 minutes + But still won't turn on and still saying it is low battery. I tried doing the resets again but basically all I'm getting are the two, spinning gears and the low battery. Also, while it's charging it randomly go'es to the spinning gears.

Dear Juan,
Try this... taken from another forum... it really works:
=============================================
After spending 8 hours trying to recover from spinning gears following a hard reset, of all the methods I tried, this is the one that worked:
-Phone was showing spinning gears
-Battery was low
-Took Sim card out
-I logged into find my phone and erased my phone using the on-line feature:https://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/my
-Let it sit for 1 hour then turned it off
-Press and hold the Volume down & Power buttons until the phone vibrates then release the power button but keep pressing the volume down key for approximately 10 seconds until you see a low battery on the screen.
-If you don’t get the low batt and you get the Nokia lego then press the following buttons in this order;
--Volume UP
--Volume DOWN
--POWER
--Volume DOWN.
-Your phone will now automatically reboot and try again till you get the low batt
-When the low batt shows up do nothing, it will turn off by itself
-Let sit for 1 hour and turn back on
-Press and hold the Volume down & Power buttons until the phone vibrates then release the power button but keep pressing the volume down key for approximately 10 seconds until you see a low battery on the screen.
-Plug your phone into the charger when you see the low batt
-If you don’t get the low batt and you get the Nokia lego and go back to the spinning gears of death then press the following buttons in this order;
--Volume UP
--Volume DOWN
--POWER
--Volume DOWN.
-Plug your phone into the charger when you see the low batt but not till you see it
-Now press the following buttons in this order;
--Volume UP
--Volume DOWN
--POWER
--Volume DOWN.
-Your phone will now automatically reboot it will show the spinning gears again but within 10 mins it will start up as a new device.
=============================================
Kind regards,
careduro

Ok so after the "Black" update on my Lumia 928 the flash decides to stop working,

and yes I checked all settings and reset camera setting, ended up doing a hard reset and it started working again.... Only to go out again a couple days later, For a month and a half old phone I'm sure am dissapointed with this one so tell me Verizon, what should I do? Honestly I'd just like to swap for another one as it has other glitches too.... It doesnt have a scratch on it so please give me some guidance here!!!!

Thanks to all of you, they did send me a B Stock "Like New" replacement but the flash works like a champ and it has no more problems than the new one did, sometimes it acts like im typing when i'm not and I have to shut it off and back on, and sometimes I go to unlock it and the home keys at the bottom light up but the screen doesn't, just usually have to give it a min or two and it whips itself back into shape, honestly I've worked for both Verizon and AT&T and have been an android guy for years. I'm really banking on Verizon pushing Windows Phone 8.1 to the Lumia 928 soon because if has half the improvements as Windows 8.1 did for my laptop ill be a happy camper. If it doesn't come I'm gonna complain like crazy about the issues above and hope I can swap back to Android on a new Galaxy S5. Verizon Wireless Customer SupportElector

Lumia 928 Handset Speaker Defect

Greetings,
Is there any news regarding the headset speaker defect in the Lumia 928 series? I currently have a warranty replacement on the way from Verizon that is affected by this, and am concerned that the next one may have the same issue.
For the unfamiliar, this problem exhibits itself as intermittent audio from the handset speaker; bluetooth, speakerphone, and headphone/mic function normally. As an electronic engineer and judging from the reported symptomsof others and my phone's exhibited behavior, I'd guess that it's the result of cold solder joint somewhere in the upper portion of the phone. It doesn't seem to be an issue with the headphones erroneously activating (normally, when the phone detects headphones the Dolby options appear under advanced audio settings -- it does not when the sound issue is occurring.)

Are there certain model #'s or serial # batches that are known bad with this defect? Has your quality control/manufacturing division rectified the issue in newer devices?

I had the same problem. Tapping the phone on my leg worked for awhile, but then that didn't work anymore. I looked at a YouTube video http://youtu.be/ie2LCenXf9Y?t=7m that shows how the phone is assembled. Looks like the earpiece is just snapped into the phone. The earpiece is shown at about 7:00 into the video.
So, rather than send my phone back and get another with the same design problem, I just squeezed the phone with my thumb right over the earpiece (without disassembling the phone) to reseat the earpiece. Suddenly the earpiece works great! It's not a permanent fix, but it seems to work every time I have the problem, and it does last for awhile.
I think this quick fix will last me until I can upgrade my phone - hopefully to a 1030 or whatever the next Lumia flagship phone is!
