Lumia 930 awful quality of display

Greetings,
I bought Lumia 930 in Telenor(Serbia) few days ago to notice second day that I got awful "piece" of display. I don't know I had phone with IPS display last two years and I'm not familiar with AMOLED, maybe this is usual for AMOLED displays but I doubt it. So problem, actually problems are:
- backlight is not strong enough(compared it with few 930)
- backlight is not equal in all areas, you can see washed out stripes and stains on solid colors(obvious in dark environment)
- backlight breaks out in huge area with high brightness set(more obvious in dark)
- screen is blinking with high frequancy in horizontal stripes(happens occasionally, think it happens when IE is on)
- and of course purple tint on low light set, but it can't be fixed
I will take my 930 on warranty for sure, just wish to check is this something usual for AMOLED displays? And how this passed quality assurance?
Thanks,
Vladimir

Pretty sad yes as Nokia and MS needs as little trouble as possible to get back on top which seems like they never will right now. Moving too slow and with a flagship having quite a bit of trouble.
Hopefully your care point will help you out without trouble. Good luck

Doesn't look normal, you should have it checked by a Care point.

Nokia Lumia 930 Defects or Firmware Issues

I recently upgraded to a Nokia Lumia 930, I had a 920 for ages and loved it. However, I had to replace my first 930 within two days as there was a hardware issue with one of the back buttons not working (when the phone heated up the back button would start pressing itself and get stuck sometimes).
I've had the new Lumia 930 (the replaced one) for two months now and the following problems have come to my attention:
Double tap to wake goes through phases where it just does not work. I've tried pressing down on the top right corner to see if it rectifies the problem but it does not (not sure how double tap to wake uses the proximity sensor, is this not dependant on the display). I do however have seen that double tap to wake stops working after charging the phone (I'm able to reproduce the behaviour repeatedly)? It will after a few hours of work just magically return to normal?
Proximity sensor goes through stages where it does not work either. I can't for certain say this happens after every charge but maybe it's just a coincidence that this happened after my last charge.
Some notification sounds do not sound at all, it seems to only happen when the display is turned off (or when the device is in standby?). Notifications including sounds such as locking and unlocking the phone aren't always played.
The screen does not turn on sometimes when and if a notification comes through (they do not always sound as in point 3 above).
Hey Cortana performance is terrible, it just doesn't work if the phone is not unlocked.
Gestures Beta has never worked on my Lumia 930, albeit a beta, I never have had any problems with it on my Lumia 920.
Things I consider to be the culprit:
There are so many issues with my device while it is in standby, that it seems to me that it might be a firmware problem? I can't image how being in low power mode would affect the device sensors (unless there is some kind of voltage drop in standby and the device's sensors are unable to function). Unsure why it seems to be fine when the device is unlocked.
I can't explain what charging does to double tap to wake, but the fact that this happens after every charge leads me to believe there is something here.
Things I have tried:
Pressing right hand corner of screen for double tap to wake. Did not help (also saw somebody going on about the phone bending in another post, my device is in a hard cover and the 930 has Gorilla glass 3, not sure it will bend at all).
Hard reset and reload firmware. Did not help (Currently running Denim).
Anyone experiencing the same problems and any solutions? I came here after being directed by Microsoft Mobile's facebook page. They don't seems to think posting my problems on facebook is a good idea. Honestly, this is my second Lumia 930 and after reading up on all the issues with the double tap to wake have a came to one conclusion: The build quality of this device is terrible.
Thank you for your time.
Jaco

Here's an update.
In frustration I tried pressing harder in the right hand corner, and if course that solves the issues (Lovely design flaw this). Although only temporarily and I still don't know how the charging is capable of affecting this at all.
My suggestion to Microsoft would be to allow in the next firmware update to allow users to disable this sensor. It seems that this sensor (or the light sensor next to it, who knows) is used to determine if the device is allowed to "Unlock" using double tap to wake. If this is the case, the device will simply ignore it when you tap on the screen (at the cost of somehow waking up in your pocket, a small price to pay)?
Anyhow, anyone's take on this?

Lumia 930 HW Revision 2.0.0.1 vs 2.0.0.2 differenc...

Hello,
1. Does someone know what is different on Lumia 930 between Hardware Revision 2.0.0.1 and 2.0.0.2 ?
2. I had a 2.0.0.2 and had a very bad screen, the gray background was displayed with green shades or somehow also having right on the middle of the screen a 1px horizontal lighter line. I switched this for a 2.0.0.1 which is much better, the only thing is that when I have a gray background and going from a light room to a dark room, the background is somhow flashing for a second from a light gray to a light green tint then going to a darker gray. I also changed this with another 2.0.0.2 and I can say that the difference is pretty major.
First of all the screen has more brigthness when both set on high or auto. The red color for example is more lifelike and punchier than on the screen from 2.0.0.1
Regarding the gray, it's more uniform and more gray as it should be. The 2.0.0.1 had a red tint.
So, is there a display change or something ? As far as I know this displays are made by Samsung and as I know Samsung with their monitors to improve the display but without to say anything like Dell, is pretty much possible.
Is anyone who can share same experience with differences between different phones and/or revisions ? To find out which is the difference between different hardware revisions and also if there are more display versions or revisions.
Thanks

Black rectangles in Gallery on Lumia 930

Can't see some pictures on Lumia 930, but the files appear to be there. Also they upload to a MacBook Pro, but appear as black rectangles. What is going on?

I've only ever seen this happen due to corrupted or removed memory cards, which obviously isn't the case with a Lumia 930. I believe it happens where a picture has been removed but the phone's gallery database still thinks it is there, so it displays a "blank" image.
There is no photo there any more, perhaps you deleted it, but for some odd reason the phone still thinks that a file is there. What you are seeing is a ghost of a picture that is no longer there, so all you an do is delete these "blank" images.

Black screen during calling with the lumia 930

I just received the lumia 930 a few days ago. Perfect device however every time I want to make a call the screen goes black. I had a lumia 920 without this problem. Is there a solution? (without blowing the dust, restoring to factory settings or bringing the device back to the store?). This is such a devastating problem as it is almost impossible to just answer the phone. A have no protective cover etc.

Eath4306, so difficult to say.
I saw that if I use a cloth to clean (or simulate cleaning the display on top of the sensor) and bright light then it comes back for a few seconds... enough to be able to end the call. Not able in any way to dial keys as for example to join a conference call.
I also checked to see if is possible to make an application to disable the sensor... However, so far I couldn't see such option. Every application will ask OS to provide access to devices, and no other app can interfere there. Although I have plan to just build an app to test all phone sensors.
This proximity sensor seems very sensitive. It could be calibration issue, which then should be fixed by firmware. But Microsoft should consider this and at least allow the possibility to disable in the Phone app the proximity feature. I could live very well without it. In the past I was just pressing the power button and screen will go off.
So, Microsoft/Nokia, here are people that believe in you! Do not disappoint us!
Gia
PS
I have anyway in plan whenever available this week to go to shop and ask for replacement. This time I know what I have to test when i buy it...

Lumia 930 amoled screen likely to burn in?

Hello,
I am trying to decide about buying a Nikia Lumia 930.
What I would like to know is the wether or not the screen will show signs of burnin after extended use.
Please let me know about your experiences and sorry for my less then perfect English.
Regards,
Jan, the Netherlands

Welcome to our community, Thehullieman. The Nokia Lumia 930 has a built-in thermal control system to monitor and control the phone temperatures. To prevent overheating, the phone might start lowering display brightness, data connection speed, pause charging or close applications in the background. This is common for most high-end modern smartphones, and the phone will cool off again soon.
Let us know if you need clarification.

Is there going to be a 64Gb Lumia 930

With the 20Mpx camera on the 930 and no SDcard expansion, this really is a needed option to compete with the iPhone. With all the music I want available offline (at lowest bitrate) plus the apps and games, I am nearly out of memory on my 32Gb 920. Please consider adding this to the range.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

32Gb is just not enough. The Lumia flagship should have been offered with either 32Gb, 64Gb or 128Gb (like the iPhone 6 !). An SD slot would also have been a big plus (on the same face as the SIM card slot). I don't buy that the design of the Lumia 930 did not allow this intetegration.
The reason larger memory is important for me is for music and films during flights and while sailing when there is poor or no One Drive connectivity.
I've been using the same iPhone 4 since its launch and really want to move to the Lumia with Windows 8.1 (and Windows 10 next year). But I can not purchase the Lumia 930 because it doesn't have enough storage. I would have purchased the 128Gb version even if it cost more (it probably still would have been less expensive than the iPhone 6 with 128 Gb).
There is so much to like about the Lumia 930 (I won't list all the features I like, except that being able to take great photos/films is high on the list as well as the fact that it feels like a quality phone in your hand). It really is a pitty that the ability to have much higher internal storage was not designed into the phone, particularly since I suspect that this would have been relatively easy to offer compared with all the other wonderful inovations of this phone.
I remember that when I purchased an iPhone 5 for my son last year, everyone in my queue purchased the highest memory version of this iPhone.
Will the Lumia 930 support Windows 10 next year ?

Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution) Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution) Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

You're welcome, and thank you for the reply.
2) Yesterday I made the subclips with the In-Out Points and Command-U, the benefit is that I've seen the clip before naming it. Now I'm using markers, it's benefit is that I can write comment and (the later) clip name at once, the drawback is that I have to view to the next shot's beginning before knowing what the shot contains.
But now I found out that I can reconnect my clips independently to the format I converted the master clip to. I reconnected the media to the original AVI file and it worked, too! The more I work with, the more I'm sold on it... - although it doesn't seem to be able to read and use the date information within the DV AVI.
1) Ok, I tried something similar within FCE. Just worked, but the file size still remains. Which codec settings should I use? Is the export to DV in MOV with a quality of 75% acceptable for both file size and quality? Or would be encoding as H.264 with best quality an option for archiving, knowing that I have to convert it back to DV if I (maybe) wan't to use it for editing later? Or anything else?
Thank's in advance again,
André

Lumia 930 location links can not be open by Here M...

Most of Lumia models sending and receiving location or favorite location from Here maps by SMS or email opens links by Here Maps app. Lumia 930 open those links on internet explorer and it is impossible to manage from there. Is there setting telling Here Maps App to open them link as most of other models of Lumia?

I've searched the web and there realy seams to be an issue with Lumia camera 5 and Denim, as it is mentioned also on other sites. I think we need to be patient and wait until problem is fixed.
Maybe any moderator is reading this and could contact developer to clearify...

Can't connect to Eduroam on my WP 8 Nokia Lumia 930

Hi!
So, I just got the new Lumia 930, which I am very happy with, however I can not seem to get it to connect to Eduroam at the university I work at. When I go to the page where I am suppose to 'join' or 'download' whatever I need, 'securew2', (using the phone)
it detects that I am using a Windown Phone, but it only just gives me settings to 'configure my device'. Such as:
SecurityType:WPA2-Enterprise
Encryption: AES
EAP Type: TTLS
Inner EAP Type: PAP
CA Certificate: UTN-USERFirst-Hardware, AddTrust etc..
When I then go into WiFi and click on Eduroam, I try to log in with my user-credentials. I can also look through a list of certificates but none of them seem to be the right one. The only choice I really get is the EAP-method, where I change it from PEAP
MA-CHAP v2 (which did not work) to TTLS. Then I am asked to verify that it is the right network, which it is - with the name of the university and everything - I click OK....and then there is a full stop. I only get a 'can't connect' message. Very frustrating.
I talked to the IT people at here, and they verified my user credentials, and told me that people with Windows Phones had trouble connecting to Eduroam.
As should be abundantly clear by now I am technologically challenged, so please help help help me fix this. If for no other reason then to silence my snickering, iPhone-loving colleagues.

Hello,
Did you find a solution for this issue?
I just bought a Nokia Lumia 735 and I have the same problem. Unable to connect the Eduroam network in my laboratory. It seem that I have to put an other certificate which is not on my device (from TERENA), and I did not find how to do it.
It is a bit disappointing to be blocked on such a new device. My previous phone, an old Iphone 3gs, was able to connect very easily...
Please help, or I will regret my choice to switch on Windows Phone (if I add the poor choice regarding the apps on the Store...).
Regards.

Strange clicking sound on my Lumia 930 arround the...

When my camera is not activated, if I mildly shake my Lumia 930 I can hear a strange clicking sound on the upper part of the device, just arround the camera lense. Can it be the lenses just shaking, because when the camera is activated that sound disappears.

Hi, Tomislav5. Welcome to Microsoft Mobile Community. How long have you been noticing this issue? Did you change any settings on the device that may cause this to happen? Make sure that the system apps on the device are all updated. You may check it by going to Store > ... > settings > check for updates. You may also try rebooting your phone by pressing and holding the volume down and the power keys at the same for 10-15 seconds and see if it makes any difference. you may need to set the date and the time after this operation. We'll wait for your response.
