New Nokia 928: touchscreen unresponsive

Hi. My new Nokia 928 arrived today and the touchscreen is unresponsive. All I can do is get the "get started" button to appear, but the screen wont respond at all. I've tried a soft reset, but can't try a hard reset because you need the phone to first be oof and I can't turn it off (unless there is a way to turn it off without hitting the power button and then swiping down?) Any tips?

Its a common issue that has an easy fix...usually. 
Power button + Volume Down for about 20-30 seconds.  This will power down and power up your phone.  I havent really found a pattern to why the dead screen happens (its happened about 3-4 times in the past 5 months) but I turned down the display sensitivity from High to normal and that seem to calm it down a bit.  I also keep my screen clean from excessive oil and grime. 
Hope that helps

  • Brand New Nokia C6 hanging lots.

    Hi,
    I just bought a brand new Nokia C6. I have to say, i'm very satisfied with the phone when it's in good shape, but it hangs a lot. When I lock the keypad on my phone, the phone locks itself and no amount of pressing and holding any button will revive it. This happens randomly. I have to remove and replace the battery. This happens around 6-7 times a day. I have tried to reset the phone, but it still got the problem.
    Does anyone have ANY help to offer?

    Hi
    Same here..Bought Nokia C6-00 on the 8th of October. It keeps on hanging when I lock or unlock the touchscreen. t\This is the first time Nokia has disappointed me. After reading all these discussions it seems like this model itself is problematic.

  • Nokia 701 - touchscreen left edge sometimes not wo...

    Hi guys!
    I bought brand new Nokia 701 recently in Malaysia, there were three language available: english, and two chinese,
    with an old Belle OS,
    then i upgraded manually to SP 1, i used firmware (Belle Feature Pack 1 v112.010.1404) with 5-6 europian languages.
    so, after upgrading i start noticing that most of the time left border of touchscreen(ie QAZ letters on keyboard) is not working, however sometimes it works.
    i dont realy want go to service center and spend there time, and feel that its software-issue, and can be solved by myself.
    what do you think? do you guys have any idea or advice about this issue?
    i couldnt find any info related to it
    thanks

    Hi Nokious,
    Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!
    We would advise you to factory reset your device and re-install the firmware. Remember to back up your phone using Nokia Suite before reseting as it will remove all personal data on your phone. 
    To factory reset your phone select > Settings and Phone > Phone management > Factory settings > Delete data and restore or dial *#7370# followed by the security code 12345 (unless you have changed it). 
    You can re-install your firmware on Nokia Suite by selecting Tools > Software update.
    If the problem persists, visit your local Nokia Care Point and let them have a look.
    Let us know if this helps,

  • I just purchased the new Nokia windows phone.  How do I delete an app that I installed but really don't want to keep?

    I just purchased the new Nokia windows phone.  How do I delete an app that I installed but don't want to keep?

    You are welcome! I played with the 928 in a Verizon store and really liked it. Besides the great camera and Nokia Maps, I'd be pretty excited about Nokia Music, too. As I understand it, this free app lets you create playlists from its entire music library, which can be stored on your device to listen to any time.
    There are a few members on the WP board who are really knowledgeable about Nokia and WP, so let us know if you have more questions.

  • New nokia social 1.4!

    Hello MODS,
           I've heared about the new nokia social 1.4 from online news published 01/14/2012 and its support for new features as notifications, events, syncing contacts and dedicated facebook and twitter widgets. I am planning to buy nokia 701 very soon but i wanna ask if this new is still laggy, does it crash and what about the notifications is it push or manual refresh?

    Yes dedicated facebook and twitter apps and widgets are there. Nice thing.
    701 is not at all lagging. From my experience of 2 months use, the phone is just robust it just won't crash.
    Notifications are of course push.
    701 is highly recommended. Man it can multitask upto 25 to 32 apps without hanging or slowdown. Well I hardly use 5 apps running.

  • Can't sync my Macbook with my new Nokia Lumia 900.

    I spent two hours with a couple of the tech folks at the AT&T store yesterday, trying to get my new Nokia Lumia 900 to sync to my Macbook... but with no luck. No matter what we did, I kept getting a message that the server was not secure, and so the calendar and address book wouldn't sync. Other things probably as well, though these two were my primary concerns. And, yes, we had downloaded the Windows Phone 7 Connector. It didn't seem to matter. Any suggestions, other than taking the phone back and getting another iPhone for a couple hundred more than I paid for the Lumia?

    Take it back and buy an iPhone...
    Sorry had to say it -

  • Joikuspot not working on brand new Nokia 808

    I've just purchased a Nokia 808 from Singapora and tried using Joikuspot.  Unfortunately for some reason it fails to start a connection.  I've made sure that BOTH mobile data and wifi are on as well.  When I start the program, it asks if I want to start a connection (to which I say yes), I choose AT&T Internet and wait.  I can see the 3G internet icon start up, but the wifi icon (or transmitting icon) never appears and the message "Connection failed, Connection unavailable" appears up at the top.
    I've tried reinstalling Joikuspot (well, I purchased the premium version actually), reinstalling the phone software (via Nokia Suite) and doing a factory reset with no success.  Internet and other apps seem to work fine under 3G and wifi as well so I'm not sure what's going on.  Any information regarding the matter would be extremely helpful.  Thanks everyone.
    Jon
    Btw, I've also contacted the people at Joiku and what they've recommended (factory reset, checking certain settings) hasn't worked either. :-(

    Hi all,
    This post is about using the third party application JoikuSpot in USA (and other FCC governed countries) and is copied to the following threads:
    http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Phone-Applications/Joikuspot-not-working-on-brand-new-Nokia-808/m-p/...
    http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nseries-and-Symbian-Smartphones/Pureview-808-Intermittent-wireless-c...
    http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nseries-and-Symbian-Smartphones/Help-Does-non-US-variant-808-purevie...
    1) It doesn't matter where you get your Nokia 808 PureView from, ie it doesn't matter if it's a US, Singapore or Finnish variant.. If you are using that device on a network/carrier in the US, the device recognises this and is not going to allow you to make Ad-Hoc wlan connections, as per the regulations set out by the FCC.
    2) I understand (this I am not certain on) that the FCC regulations came into force in 2011. Therefore for any device manufacturer since then, the device is not allowed to create Ad-Hoc networks otherwise the device manufacturer wouldn't get FCC approval.
    3) The FCC restrictons are in this case technically talking about Ad-Hoc networks, not 'wifi direct' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Direct) networks that are used for example in Lumia 610/710/800/900.
    4) I understand the US Variants of Nokia 808 PureView do not have JoikuSpot preinstalled.
    5) I understand that US customers are not able to purchase JoikuSpot from Nokia Store.
    6) JoikuSoft should be aware of this as they are making the software to create the Ad-Hoc networks. I will find someone to talk to JoikuSoft, failing that I will do it myself. I noticed a post from 'greentoy' claiming "According to Joikusoft Support, It should work fine in US, but they didn't know for sure.". Greentoy, if you're reading this please post me the JoikuSoft contact you had so I can sort this out with them.
    It goes without saying, if you have Nokia 808 PureView in the US, and are using JoikuSpot successfully, then I am happy for you and don't want to cause problems for you, but I suspect the FCC would be happy to tell you about their feelings..
    Are there any other questions I should be aware of using JoikuSpot in the US before I try to get in touch with JoikuSoft?

  • Nokia 928. Latest win 8.1 software. Can not get MMS / picture / group messages

    MMS on my Nokia 928 use to work. After an upgrade is doesn't work (? - could be a coincidence it happened after an upgrade?). I get the message "Get media content now."  Tapping on the link doesn't do anything.  Doesn't matter whether I'm using wi-fi or cellular data. If I go to Settings > Cellular+SIM > SIM Settings > add MMS APN, the fields are blank. At the microsoft support site it says to save your settings, but it doesn't tell you what these settings should be. The fields on this form are APN, User Name, Password, WAP gateway, WAP gateway port, etc, etc.   Should this form be filled in? If so, what are the settings?
    I need both picture messaging and group messaging. Right now it is broken.
    Joel

        HFGuy, We certianly know the importance of ensuring your MMS is working properly. Let's look into this. Do you notice this error occuring when you are connected to our 3G/4G LTE network or Wifi? Are you receiving this error message when trying to send MMS or receive? Also, can you please confirm the current software loaded on your Nokia 928?

  • HELP - My new Nokia Lumia 620 won't boot up, even ...

    I'm worried my Nokia Lumia 620 is a lemon, and the Care Centre will just keep taking it in for repair.  The reliability so far has been disappointing, especially as I was giving Nokia a try after a 10 year break, and also trying out Windows Mobile / Phone after a 6 year break.  I want to recommend it - I'm continually being asked by friends and colleagues what I think of my new phone.   Nokia will be smart to just replace it.      
    The details: my Nokia Lumia 620 won't boot up today (again).  It hung on boot  this morning with the Nokia Logo.  That was over 2 hours ago.  It had this problem during February, and I returned it twice for repair to the local Nokia Care Centre.  I guess I'll take it in again later today, but it just feels like a lemon handset so far.
    Timeline:
    Handset purchased in local Nokia Store on Jan 29 2013 ( 7 weeks ago)
    Handset gave "Exclamation-Mark-Screen-of-Death" on Feb 19 2013 (3 weeks old handset)
    Local Nokia Store sent me to local Nokia Care Centre, handed in overnight "for repair"
    Phone returned on Feb-20-2013 after software refresh. 
    Worked fine for 1 week.   Problem returned Feb 26 2013. (4 week old handset)
    Nokia Care Centre "replaced motherboard" on Feb 27 2013. 
    Has worked fine for 3 weeks.   Now Lumia 620 won't boot this morning - no Exclamation Mark, instead it's the Nokia Logo on boot.  
    The handset is 7 weeks old.
    Hard reset (side-button-combination) hasn't worked either.  
    Any advice on getting this working, repaired or replaced?

       Update on the repair - it didn't work.   I returned the phone to the Yau Ma Tei Nokia Care Centre on March 20th, and was given what was termed a 'replacement' phone.   I was pretty happy.  All was well.  But two days later when I tried to make a phone call using my headphones, I noticed that only the left audio channel was working through the earphones.   I tried a second pair of earphones and the same problem.    The audio was only working through the left channel.  On a new phone.  How strange.  
    So was it really new?   My suspicion is that the repair centre has used old returned parts (parts they perhaps term as refurbished) - so in fact my replacement phone is my old phone assembled with old and refurbished parts.   Was it in fact a refurbished phone assembled from refurbished parts?   Frustrating when they tell me it's a replacement phone.  
    That was back in late March.  I posted a couple of tweets and Nokia responded.  They even phoned me to try and help.  However no offer of a new phone.  All they suggested was that I revisit the Nokia Service Centre.   For a 4th time.   
    That was about 6 weeks ago, and I simply haven't made the time to go to the Service Centre again.   It's hard to find the time when my last 3 visits have been so unsuccessful.
     Sometimes you just get a lemon.   It happened to me once before with a different manufacturer when I was on a contract and had to live with a phone for 2 years that kept cutting out during calls.   Same problem - the manufacturer attempted to repair it, but it just never worked properly.   That was 10 years ago.  Now it's happening with my new Nokia.  Luckily I'm not on contract this time.  I've read good reviews for the Lumia 620, and overall it's a pretty decent handset in every other way.  
    But the issues this particular handset has been plagued with has overshadowed any positive feelings I have been having.   I'll probably be cutting my losses and changing handsets in the summer.  

  • Problem I can not Update new Nokia X6 8Gb firmware...

    Problem I can not Update new Nokia X6 firmware Version V.21.0.005,
     can someone tell me where can I get new Nokia Software Update for X6 8Gb,
     I tried to update new firmware, but this is new version is not Aviable 
    where I can get new version in my phone serial number: numbers end
     in ( 2587 ) and when will update available for my phone serial number be
    Thank you 

    Reasons why a phone cannot update:
    1. It is a country variant - country variants often get the updates later, or have updates skipped altogether. A Turkish country variant product code for example, skipped v40 and updated from v31 straight to v50.
    2. It is network branded - phones acquired from network providers or these providers' stores SIM free are branded, and will not get updates until the networks approve and modify the updates to their liking.
    3. Special editions - These special editions are chartered editions and may never get updates unless taken to a Nokia Care center.

  • New Nokia Tradies phone?

    I'v been looking for a new Nokia Tradesman phone for my father. He had the older style until recently & would like a similar thing though with a bit more memory. I'v read about the "Sport" version but he would prefer a 'bare bones' type of phone. If anyone could advise, it would be a huge help.

    Unfortunately, Nokia haven't bothered to update this market segment since the hugely popular 5140i.  There are other brands, however, such as Sonim and Samsung that seem happy to fill this void.

  • New nokia lumia 520

    my new nokia lumia 520 hangs. 
    its been only 20 days i brought my new lumia 520.
    Case : I just completed call. the screen got blacked out. we can still get incoming calls.
    we have the option to switch off. when it asks to slide down. it never happens. not able to slide it down.
    Solution - i removed battery and replaced. (This is very bad solution but i had no other option)
    tried - done power off and also volume down button with power off. it dint work.
    So disappointed!!

    hi mate, as a precursor to taking your phone to nokia care, you can check that you have the latest firmware updates for your device, and that you are up to date with the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store. also try performing a soft and then a hard reset if that doesn't work.
