Lumia Icon/929

Has there been any word on if or when the Nokia Lumia Icon/929 for Verizon will be coming to Best Buy? I'm coming due for an upgrade and would like to go from my HTC 8X to the Icon, and would also like to be able to take advantage of the $50 gift card promotion. I've seen that there are accessories for the phone being sold through the Best Buy Marketplace, but so far no actual phone.
Thanks

Hey gilez15,
The best advice I can give would be to keep an eye on BestBuy.com for updates. New products and shipping options are added on a daily basis, so make sure to check back often.

  • When WP Nokia Lumia Icon 929 will have Windows 8.1 with Cortana?

    When WP Nokia Lumia Icon 929 will have Windows 8.1 with Cortana?   It is already overdue !!!!

    I received the download for my Icon on Friday the 13th (Feb).
    The download is done in 2 parts... a prep program, and the OS update (1/2 hour to install).
    It is well worth it.
    Good Luck

  • Nokia Lumia Icon/929 Available

    It looks like the phone is now available on VZW site, http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/device/smartphone/nokia-lumia-icon?&&ziprdr=y
    The only issue right now is that it seems still be somewhat of a place holder being the phone is still listed as $777 on contract.
    Personally once the phone is available I'm heading to my local Microsoft Store.  With insurance (I believe is $50) you'll get the phone replaced with a brand new one instead refurbished ones that VZW dishes out.

    This whole 929/Icon release is a sad and pathetic situation.  Is VZW really that worried about a good Windows Phone taking over their Droid and iPhone market share?  "Verizon is dedicated to the Windows Phone Platform" has proven to be more lip service than anything else since the release of Windows Phone 8.  That "dedication" is why you see the Nokia 1020 and 1520 at AT&T.
    In response to fireball24; I also believe that the Microsoft Store offers a better deal on hardware than Verizon.  The insurance is reasonable, you get 2 swaps, and a replacement phone is a brand new phone and not a refurbished that someone has been coughing and sneezing on.  Plus, after you get your new phone from Microsoft, you can cash in your old phone at Verizon and use the money to recover a bit of what you spent.  Plus, plus: if your current phone becomes obsolete (like the 822), Microsoft will provide you a replacement of something new.  (The same works at the Microsoft Store for the Xbox and Surface.)  The monthly bill from Verizon is enough of a shake-down.  No need to give VZW extra cash.  I made the same move this Summer with the kids iPhones.  Get it from Apple and insure it with Apple.  Everything has to be a "game" with VZW.  What's in it for them. 
    ...anyway, I have my place in line at the International Mall in Tampa for the ICON at the Microsoft Store.  Verizon releases all of their phones on Thursday, so I expect an announcement by either tomorrow or in 8 days.  Or maybe June.  Or maybe next Christmas.  It's become quite a joke.

  • Windows Phone Nokia Lumia Icon 929 Update Issues...

    My Nokia Lumina Icon was recently updated to the Lumina Denim 8.1 a few days ago. I absolutely love the new features, especially Cortana, the live pictures, and the transparent tiles. Even though the update came with a lot of positives, the few
    negatives I've been experiencing really makes me wish I never received the update. My phones battery drains so much faster, the battery life went from 2days max with me using it, to barely lasting a day... also when I push the power button to wake
    my phone, I have to wait for my phone to finish saying (Resuming....) before it would even allow me to unlock my screen and it's really annoying. Also when I'm scrolling up and down on the home screen I notice a little lag, and that takes away from the
    smooth navigation. If you can send an update soon for these inconveniences I would really appreciate it so much, thank you for your time. (:

  • Nokia Lumia Icon aka 929 (CP Case)

    Cheers

    Hi Psychomania
    Thanks for reply, and details, I have come to same conclusion no official nokia CP case for device.
    Interesting Nokia have a CP-637 case for the soon to be released Lumia 930, which looks same spec as Icon and size, if buttons and ports, are in similar location it might fit Icon, but wont know until its in the wild
    Cheers

  • Why is the Lumia Icon's ringtone lower than when previewing the ringtone in settings/system/ringtone sounds? (The volume is set at 30 in all cases.)

    Why is the Lumia Icon's (929) ringtone lower than when previewing the ringtone in settings/system/ringtone+sounds? (The volume is set at 30 in all cases.)

    Hello Lena,
    Yes, tried all those things.
    After going back and forth with Verizon's "tier 2" technical support over the last 2 days, a chat session with Nokia, no call-backs-as-promised by your technicians, then having them reinstall the phone's software -that didn't fix the problem. So they are sending me a re-manufactured replacement phone. But not a NEW ONE, because I didn't realize the problem within 14 days. You see at first, I just figured the phone had lousy volume, until I was previewing ringtones when setting the alarm clock. The phone is about one and a half months old. I have expressed my desire that a NEW phone be sent, but NO says Verizon.
    I've spent enough time, in good faith, Verizon would solve this matter, but in the process of their re-installing the software they've screwed up Backup Assistant.
    Thanks.

  • When will the Lumia Icon get the Denim Update?

    The Denim Update will arrive for the Lumia Icon in early 2015. It just dropped today for Lumia 928 and Lumia 822: Verizon announces Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1 to Lumia 928, Lumia 822 | Windows Central.
    But, Microsoft said at IFA 2014 that the Lumia Denim would "first be available on our flagship phones...Lumia ICON": Microsoft Nokia Lumia Live Event Part 1 - Lumia Denim, Lumia 830 IFA 2014 - YouTube . Not happy. Check the youtube video out at the time 7:48.
    So it appears that Lumia Cyan was skipped as some of us speculated in the forums.
    Meanwhile, although you can only buy the Lumia 928 at Verizon, since Verizon discontinued (yanked off the shelves with disgust by iPhone and Android executives hehehe, jk) the Lumia ICON, you can still buy the Lumia ICON at the Microsoft store free with contract: http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/Verizon---Nokia-Lumia-Icon/productID.306508100
    And just to add a little salt to the wounds the 930 on AT&T already has Lumia Cyan and it has the same exact hardware as the 929, accept for a few little number changes here and there due to GSM vs CDMA, but that doesn't take 4 months to figure out...: Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1 rolls out for Nokia Lumia 930
    At this point Verizon should just let Microsoft deliver firmware directly to Lumia ICON users, like Apple delivers firmware updates to iPhone users, without carrier approval since Verizon doesn't even sell the ICON anymore.
    Very disappointed in Verizon and Microsoft.
    I wonder if the preview for developers version will receive the Denim update on the ICON any sooner than "early 2015"...
    Joe Belfore needs to "get on Deck" with reality; this is way to long to wait for a flagship phone.

    OK, I stand corrected -- and I'm thrilled about that!! According to Lumia Conversations, Verizon will be rolling out Denim to those that missed Cyan:
    "Here’s an early Christmas present to our U.S. readers: If you own a Lumia and you’re on the Verizon network, the newest Windows Phone 8.1 upgrade–the super-charged Lumia Denim–is coming to you soon.
    Yes, that means you’ll skip over the previous update, Lumia Cyan, and go straight to Denim!
    The roll-out for the Lumia 822 and Lumia 928 begins over the next few days and the Lumia Icon will follow in early 2015."
    I'm not thrilled about us Icon owners being last in line and waiting until 2015, but it's better than waiting for a Cyan update that will never come.

  • Windows Vista won't find my Lumia Icon

    I'm trying to move some music to my new Lumia Icon, but when I plug the phone in to the PC nothing happens. The PC doesn't know anything is plugged in, and all the phone does is recharge the battery when plugged in. How can I get my music on to my new phone?

    Not much to try with Vista.  Desktop - use USB ports on back
    Use the USB cable that came with the phone.
    Connect the phone to the PC.  Turn it all the way off, hold power button and slide the screen down. The phone will turn back on and it will be detected, drivers should load.
    You should see it in windows explorer. It should install in 'portable devices' in the device manager.

  • So are we to assume that the preview for developers is the WP 8.1 update intended for Lumia Icon users?  Why is it taking so long for this update to be released?!

    Of those of you that have tried out the preview for developers on the Lumia Icon, what issues have you seen from it?  Does it in fact void your warranty?

    I don't think you should give up on Windows Phone.  I think you should instead give up on Verizon.  Lets say you had an android device, Verizon could do the same thing and hold up an important update that you're waiting for.  AT&T is much quicker to release Windows Phone updates so you may want to try them next time.For example, you can see on this page Availability in North America - Nokia that AT&T has released the update for their top two phones the 1020 and 1520.  The Verizon icon is almost the same as the Lumia 930 which is the international version.  The 930 has been on Windows Phone 8.1 for many months.  Windows Phone 8.1 has lots of new features including the notification center and Cortana.  It's a shame that Verizon is too lazy, too slow or just doesn't care.  I'm probably going to start installing the developer preview soon and you could do the same.  Basically, you sign up for a free developer account.  Then install the developer preview app to get the updates. Google has no such option for android uses so if Verizon were holding back an android update you'd be worse off.  At least Microsoft gives us a stupid carrier work around...  It's annoying but then you can enjoy your Windows Phone with out having to wait for Verizon whom doesn't care.  They haven't even said a word about it which = worst carrier ever in my opinion.

  • My Lumia Icon goes dark during calls and I cannot access the phone pad to unless I hit the power button.

    My Lumia Icon goes dark during calls and I cannot access the phone pad to unless I hit the power button.  Because of this it makes it tough to put my phone on speaker or type in my v-mail password.

    I've been trying to find a common denominator. It happens inconsistently. It never happened before the Denim update. When it does occur, the screen goes black immediately upon answering the call and doesn't come back until the call is ended by the calling party.
    I thought it might be the proximity sensor, but when it's working normally I can see the screen go dark when it's at my ear and comes back when I take it away (tried it multiple times). I had Gestures Beta installed. I wondered if that could have an affect so I uninstalled it, but that didn't make any difference. I'm still stumped by the inconsistency. I haven't reset my phone as I didn't really want to go through that...

  • Verizon Lumia Icon Denim update teased for possible February release

    Fingers crossed
    Verizon Lumia Icon owners are a passionate crowd and seemingly asking on a daily basis when the promised Lumia Denim update for their phones will be delivered. In late 2014 it was promised for "early 2015" but now we're into 2015 folks are getting itchy update fingers once again. Microsoft's Joe Belfiore is the target of a number of questions on the subject, and he's got a couple of things to say about it today.
    "Lumia icon people asking what I meant by "early 2015": The first part of the year. In my mind that means jan/feb or so. Less likely March."
    "Know that Vzw & MS are actively, daily working on getting it done. The test process has unpredictability so we can't say a firm end date"
    Since January is done with that would suggest Microsoft and Verizon are aiming to push it out in February. But as with the second statement, it could easily slip due to circumstances beyond Microsoft's control. But it hasn't been forgotten about, at least.
    Source:  Verizon Lumia Icon Denim update teased for possible February release | Windows Central

    I doubt it. JB's tweets were very, very vague and the very fact that he had to mention March means it's a lot more likely than not to be pushed past February.
    I take this as a very bad sign for this phone. We've been hearing soon since September.

  • Nokia Lumia Icon + DT900 wireless charging problem

    I bought a Nokia Lumia Icon which had a defected SIM card tray. I replaced the daughter engine board where the SIM card tray is located without charging the phone first (the battery was completely empty) and now when I'm trying to charge the phone wirelessly with DT900, it just doesn't work. So I don't know whether it worked (or not) before my fixing procedure.
    DT900 works with my wife's Lumia 1020 and my Lumia 928 so there's nothing wrong with it.
    So all you technical gurus over here:
    1) how does the wireless charging work with Lumia Icon/930? I.e. does anyone have any wiring diagrams for Lumia Icon/930? There are two pins on the main board but where do they go? I didn't detach the main board, only the engine cover assembly and the battery in order to replace the daughter engine board where the SIM card tray is. So does the engine cover assembly have anything to do with the wireless charging (I don't think so) or do those pins go straight to the battery?
    2) does anyone know whether this is a common problem among Lumia Icon / 930 phones? A type fault or a serie of phones with defective rear cover and its wireless charging assembly?
    I'd really appreciate if someone could help me. Thanks a lot in advance!

    No problem, I fixed it by myself.
    And I think that this kinda censorship sucks  
    I can understand that when a manufacturer provides a free user forum they do not appreciate information posted which may cause problems and then be held responsible for the damages as it is an 'official' resource provided by the manufacturer.
    I'd suggest you lookup the meaning of censorship which this most definately is not.
