My nokia 1020 goes off if I put it in my pocket.l

I bought a Nokia 1020 4 days ago. Since then it goes off when I put it in my pocket. It refuses to be on until l reboot it using the volume down and power button.

Hi, ksuksu. Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions. Can we have your phone's current software version? Have you tried to reset it? Settings > about > reset your phone. As this will delete all your stored data, we recommend creating a backup file:

Since this is a newly purchased phone, you may consider coordinating this matter with the retailer and askabout their store policy.

Nokia c3 goes off abruptly,poor reception and mout...

i bought my nokia c3 in mid october and i must say i am at the very least outraged by the product quality.Nokia has been reknowned for developing quality handsets but now i see a changing trend.
Barely three weeks after I had bought my C3 it's mouthpiece had a defect and for a whole day I could not talk to anyone though I was able to hear them,the phone'fixed' itself after 24 hrs.Recently while I was receiving a call it went off then on again after a minute or so,I ignored this till yesterday when after taking a picture it went off again and all my efforts to put it on failed.I am not a happy customer and this sentiment is shared by some of my friends who have purchased the same product.It is now at a Nokia service centre,let's see what'll happen!Beautiful concept wonderful product,poor delivery.
who else faces my dilemma or has something to say?

I know that service issues at home are frustrating mwhitehead. I'm sorry to hear you miss calls and voicemails from friends and family. Did we file a trouble-ticket for your issue? How is service when you step outside your home? Although, we can not guarantee service inside of your home or buildings we want to ensure service outside of your home & in other areas are working properly. Whats your zipcode and I think the network extender is a great option to help with inside service. Take a look hear http://vz.to/IHRT6h .

Nokia N8. Screen going off at random times after B...

I had belle for few weeks on my n8 now and I noticed very annoying issue. At completely random times screen goes off. It is not going off per settings. I have to lock the screen and then unlock it or else there is no response by touching it. I could be browsing web or checking email and it will go dark, it is not because of lack of activity.
Any help ?

Hi aim1999,
Have tried performing a soft reset or hard reset on the phone to see if it was a bad install?
To do Soft reset: Enter *#7780# into your phone's keypad
Note: this will not delete any data from the device.
To do a Hard reset: Enter *#7370#
Note: You will need to back up your data before you do this because it will erase all data from the phone.
If this still does not fix your problem, you may have to take the device into a Nokia Care Point for further inspection.

I put my iPod charging, but it wont charge. The Apple logo appears on the screen for five seconds and then it goes off again. Afterwards, it does it again and again and again. I can leave it 1 hour or day charging and it will be doing this the whole time.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

and
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

For about a week now you put in the most basic of searches and then try to enter a site and firfox goes off to totally random sites, could be related to an update but what do I need to change to stop it happening?

Firefox has always been great on going to selected sites, now for past week or so it goes off to the most random of sites even when the site you selected is well known and used, very frustrating
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== possibly after one of your updates

Nokia 1020 battery drain rates.. mine typical?

I recently got the 1020.. i've installed a battery app.. at one point, post a MS update that i got through dev channels, had issues with massive battery drain.. around 20 percent per hour..
So i reset the phone to factory defaults, per some threads around here.. also tried running with very few apps.. saw around 3.5 percent per hour after that, at least till i put some apps back on it..
This is with wifi, bluetooth and lte on.
My usage throughout the day is minimal.. no videos typically.. just web page hits or email checks or message checks etc.. i turn the phone "off" / standby when not in use typically.. maybe have it on say 45 minutes out of the day without turning it off.. and the rest here and there for email checking.
A few days in row.. start off with 100% around 9am.. by 515 its at 38-40%.. (the recharge rate varies between 25-40%, depending on which recharger i'm using.. i have usb charge ports for the wall.. some are 1 amp, some 2.. not sure this matters on charging)..
Right now i checked the phone.. it shows a 6.8 percent discharge rate.. i really havent seen anything below 5 in awhile now.. it can peak at 11-14 when doing a mix of web/videos etc for 15 minutes.
I do have 2 active tiles and a lot of things pinned.. maybe three swipes worth to get to the bottom if that..
Can anyone comment on their discharge rates.. does this sound normal.. thinking maybe swapping it at the store if they have them there, before my 30 days runs out.. not sure if nokia warranty goes beyond that or not and i'm guessing no advanced replacement if needed.
Thanks in advance

I have a Lumia 920 that is out of warranty, and has been having battery issues for quite a while. I have to add, my phone is developer unlocked. My phone currently dischrages about 20% per hour, or so it says. I restart the phone, and my battery level goes back up, and basic math tells me it is really discharging less than 2% per hour. I have to reset the phone about three or four times a day. Since it is developer unlocked, I wrote an app using the battery API. There are only a few items you can return from the battery API, the ESTIMATED battery % remaining, and the ESTIMATED time remaining. There is also an event that is supposed to fire when the battery % drops 1%. If you don't understand programming, and event is something that happens in code that when it does happen, you can write code to execute when that event happens. So in my app, I can clearly see the battery % drop, the time drop, but the EVENT never fires. I have had battery apps installed, and they mimick the same results I am getting. Also, they never update the battery remaining % or time on live tiles, which tells me the event is not firing in their code either. I have an open discussion in Windows Phone developer forums about this. I just got a 1520, and am going to try and side load the app without developer unlocking the phone to see if the same behavior occurs. Since my phone is out of warranty, I also tried a new battery, but same behavior. I'm pretty sure this is not a hardware issue, but a software issue, at least in my case. When your battery runs down, have you tired rebooting your phone to see if the battery level comes back up?

Nokia 1020 repairs? Quality of device?

I have had a Nokia 1020 for less than a week, and already the chassis is scuffed from being in my pocket (on its own) and I just dropped it out of my hand on to my desk (a fall of approx. 20cm) and the glass in the corner of the screen is chipped.
If my rubber case had arrived yet this probably wouldn't have happened which I am annoyed about, but serious a phone should be able to withstand THAT without damage.
Is there anything I can do?
I'd have thought being in Finland would give me good customer service, but their phone number basically says "go to the website" and online chat support says it is open between 9.00 and 17.00 (it is 14.28 right now), except public holidays (which it isn't today) ... and it is closed.
Horrible feeling I have made a terrible mistake going back to Nokia after my awful experience with the N8

You are so right. Put the best smartphone camera on earth in a device that is fragile. I was on one knee doing yard you, mine fell about 1.5 ft and glass cracked. I have Assure Service contract. Store offered me $340 credit so I pay $245 to move up to a 1520, 1020 no longer available AND pay $49 deductible. I decided to just go out and find the best repair shop I can, repair the GORILLA glass and get and extremely protective case. Anybody know of a good repair shop in Houston? Oh, BTW, MS store tech said Nokia glass is trickier than most to repair. That's just great. Weak AND hard to fix, good combo. At least I'll get to keep the banging 41 MP camera.

Macbook 13.3 white, the screen goes off and only comes on when screen moved

Hi.
I have the macbook 13.3 in white, early 2009 model. The screen keeps going off and the only way I can get it back on is to move the screen back and forth. By the looks of things this is a common problem and it's usually related to a cable between the screen and the logic board.
My question is, how easy is it to open the mac up and get to this cable to re-connect it properly?
Or do Apple repair this FOC due to it being a popular problem?
Thanks
Mark

My girlfriend has a white macbook that is just over the year warranty. We were going to get the Apple care, but forgot as we got the computer at Best Buy and didn't expect to have problems. I've always previously been a PC guy and had never had problems with my Dells. They all still run and work perfectly but are just obsolete in many ways.
I'm very disappointed with the Macbook. The screen freezes and fades to white and you have to move the screen to get it to work. The computer is still running fine, it just seems like a connection to the screen that is the problem. I brought it to the "genius bar" and they went down and opened up the computer. When I got it back they advised it might be the cable for the screen or the screen itself. He went on to say Apple will not just fix that problem, the only option is to have Apple do a $470 (I believe that's what I was quoted) warrantied overhaul of the entire machine. They don't just fix the problem, they go through the whole machine for $470 and its warrantied. He said a computer repair shop could probably fix the problem cheaper. My problem is that this was a fairly expensive machine that is barely over a year old and its having a problem that it seems many people are having and their only solution is to spend half the money of a new one to fix something as small as a cable that is definitely their fault. I do not think the screen needs to be replaced or the logic board as when you pinch the screen and angle it, it works amazingly. I opened up the machine just to take a look and it seems that the cable for the video goes through the hinge and there is a pleat inside the hinge shaped to contour the outside of the machine when closed that tugs on the cable slightly. I also saw that there was some missing screws that the "Genius Bar" may not have put back. They told me they unplugged and inspected the video cable and the computer worked better for a while which leads me even more to believe there is something wrong with the cable and the hinge design.
I think Apple should fix this problem. This problem that is becoming more and more common and it is definitely a product defect. We are paying a decent dollar for these products compared with PC laptops out there. I'd like to see some decent service. This is not a $470 "one fix fits all" problem for the customer, this is an easy fix for the company to make on faulty products. It will cost them little and its the right thing to do. I predict more and more people will be complaining about this problem in the coming year. They should not be able to profit on this flaw after so recently profiting on the machines.

What's wrong with my trackpad? It was working fine, then I installed Lion 10.8.1 and now the mac mini won't see it, when I press the on button, a light comes on after a brief pause, stays on for a second or so, and then goes off, still no trackpad..

Ok, so if you haven't worked it out, this is my first post. My problem is all in the title, but once more won't hurt..
I have a bluetooth trackpad which has been attached to my mac mini for a few months now, with only the occasional connection lost, connection found saga that everyone seems to go through. Earlier today, I used the trackpad to upgrade to OSX 10.8.1 nd when the computer rebooted, no trackpad could be found. I've put fresh batteries in, I've tried rebooting the mac mini, I've checked sys preferences and am currently using an old usb keyboard which is v flimsy so forgive any typos please.
The light comes on about a second after the on button is pressed, (whether the button is held down or not) and then goes off after a second, still no trackpad is found..
Why?!!!!

No, not paired to anything else, fresh out the box connected to the mac mini I bought at the same time, never been paired with anything else.
I think it's a hardware issue. As I don't seem to be able to get it to turn off.

Need help creating illusion of a long road going off into the distance...

I can't for the life of me seem to figure something as simple sounding as this out... I've spent 2 whole days now working with every different program in the CS4 Master Collection and am ready to shoot myself.
I'm trying to create a nice banner and in it is a street sign and the road it's naming going off into the distance as if you were standing on the road looking straight down it forever into the vanishing point.
For some stupid reason this is the hardest illusion of all. In PS CS4 I create a really long Road as a Smart object,and then try to turn it into a 3d postcard so I can rotate it, but only the part that is seen within the boundaries of the Banner renders in 3D, the rest of the layer that hangs outside the border is cropped.
I want to be able to put a light on it and texture it to make it look realistic, other wise I would have just drawn a triangle with lines on it. So I try using After effects to at least handle this part. I created a really long (20,000 px) road in Illustrator, ported it into AE, but AE kinda does the same thing, I am only able to see a piece of the road, the ends are invisible, so only the middle, say 5,000 px of the road are rendered when I rotate it into the plane I want!
Is there a tutorial or something that can help me achieve a realistic looking long road?
Thanks All
Aza

My advice is to use good old perspective transform, along with Scale and maybe distort to change the vanishing point. Edit/transform/perspective. These transform parameters are very easy to work with and will create a good visual perspective. Not a good idea to use Warp or Liquify because this will throw your perspective off. Best thing to do is light the image from above before transforming. This is an excellent use for Smart Objects.
Another slightly more complex way is to use the vanishing point filter. Copy your flat road and paste it into a carefully created vanishing point grid.
Getting into the 3D tools for a simple task like this, just creates more things that can go wrong, as you have discovered.

Mac mini (late 2014) display Flicking/goes Off and On

Hi everyone!
Well.. i can say that, this is my first Mac computer and i already have problems. I have read a lots of comments and i have seen that many people experienced this problem with Mac mini, like display corruption, not property colors, flicking, display goes off and back on... or just standing on sleep and not turning on. (like Mac mini 2012 or 2011.. i have read about same issue..) so whats really happen?
So, from the peoples comments i tried possible solutions:
SMC Reset
I have Reinstalled the OS X Yosemite (complete HDD format)
I have changed the cable
(Nothing works)
Some detail about my connection:
I have Mac mini (late 2014) i5 2,6GHz dual-core, 8GB ram, Iris Graphics (Intel), 1TB HDD
I have connect it via miniDP to DP > to > Dell UltraSharp U2713HM
My following issue:
-Screen goes Off and On without reason (mostly happens when i connect my iPhone i have noticed, or maybe just impression..)
-Screen goes to Sleep without reason while i'm on computer (this normally happens after a few off and on screen flickers)
-Image corruption/distortion (after this display goes off and on, or just remaining on sleep.. like not detected
I hope someone can help me with this problem, i just bought it one week ago and i don't know what should i do, because as well i have read that even i'll change it, it can have the same problem.
Waiting or a response,
Best regards.

Update: I'm coming back with a possible tip for fixing this issue (I hope Apple Stuff will notice this.)
So, how i said in the previews message.. the Image corruption / and going Off and On the display happens mostly when i'm connecting the iPhone. Theory tested a few times, and take a guess.. it's true.
When i'm connecting the iPhone, the monitor goes crazy.. for some seconds, turning off and on.. and sometimes Image corruption, then coming back like nothing happened. Because i found out this, i was making more tests with the iPhone.
First, erasing the disk and reinstall the OS X again. Everything worked perfectly, until i was connecting the iPhone. I got directly Image corruption and Screen goes Off and On a several times. After this is happening, and you'll unplug the iPhone and put it again, you may not receive again Image corruption or Screen to go Off and On, but after a restart when you'll connect it again, you will receive almost everytime.
So.. after this, i was testing further. I have Paired my iPhone with iMessage and FaceTime, to see if can be a possible issue there also. True again!
Receiving messages from iPhone to Mac / Sometimes display goes Off and On
Receiving a Call via FaceTime to Mac (from your iPhone carrier) / Image corruption / Screen Off and On
After a day of test, i have realise where is the problem. "iPhone connection/Mac"
So, the cable it's good (connection miniDP to DP), by Surfing and by running other Apps i have no problem (at least until now), the only problem what cause the Image corruption and Screen Off/On for several times, it is only because of the connection with the iPhone.
I hope is someone there from Apple Stuff that will take this as notice to solve this problem. Because it is 99% software problem, and i hope it will appear soon enough an Update/Fix.
Thank you!

My Macbook will not boot the operating system. It just goes to a blue screen after the apple logo and the spinning wheel goes off. I took the battery out and held the on/off button for five seconds and reset the PRAM. I have the old mac os disk.

You won't lose any data unless you erase your hard drive.
Put your install DVD into the optical drive and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c"key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it.When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've selected the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.

Screen Goes off above certain angle

The screen of my MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo goes black when I raise it above about 70º . It re-illuminates when lowered and finally goes off as normal as it nears the closed position. It is difficult to use at anything below 90º. The backlight is being switched off it appears but data is still being sent to the screen as it can be seen vaguely. Does anyone know what mechanism is used to switch the screen off and if so where it is situated and whether it is easy to fix? I do not think it is a software fault...

I'd be surprised if the magnetic latch was responsible for switching off the backlight otherwise would it not be possible to switch the screen off by putting something magnetic close to it which would be annoying? The magnets are located at the top corners of the screen and the corners of the keyboard hand rest areas. I thought it might be a loose connection to the inverter board but wouldn't expect it to remake contact once broken.

Internet going off all the time

My internet has been constantly going off and on for months now. It always happens in the change of the seasons when it is getting warm. Ive had comcast internet since 2011& it has happened every year. The technicians come out and tell me theres nothing wrong with my modem or anything in the house. They put a request for maintenance to come out and check the pole . Nothing ever changes. Its so aggravating to pay for a service that never works correctly. When it works, its wonderful. Spring and summer months are awful! Last week makes 5 times the technicians have visited my house since May! Its about time for somebody at the cooperate level to do something. All my neighbors have already switched internet and tv providers- do I have to switch too!?
