No batteries for Nokia Lumia 710?

I am in Perth, Western Australia and I am one unhappy customer
Last Friday I went to Battery World to get a spare battery for my new Nokia Lumia 710 as I'm travelling overseas.
They don't have them. I phoned JB HIFI as I bought the phone from them. They don't have them. On Saturday I phoned Nokia Care. They said they had a shop at Morley (quite a distance from me).They also said go to JB HIFI (I told them they don’t have batteries), **bleep** Smith, Harvey Norman or Telechoice. I went to each of these, they don’t have them and never have, nor did they give any indication that they ever would have them.
I went to the Telstra Shop. The chap kindly looked up the address for Nokia Customer Care here in Morley, Perth, Australia – he commented that I could not phone them because their phone number was no longer on the website. Therefore there was no way of my checking that they had a battery before I went there. I drove quite a distance to Morley. When I eventually found the business I was greeted with Business Hours 09:30 to 17:30 Monday to Friday.
When I returned home I phoned Nokia Customer Care. I told them I had driven to the business and it was shut and it would have been nice to have been told that before I drove there. They told me that’s quite right they are not open on Saturdays. I was once again told to go to JB HIFI, **bleep** Smith, Harvey Norman, Telechoice. I told them they had already told me that and I had already established and told Nokia Customer Care that they did not have batteries and never had them.
I was told they would send through a query (?to God) and I would receive an SMS in 24-48 business hours as to whether there was a battery available at Nokia Customer Care. Today I received a voice mail telling me that there are no batteries available at Nokia Customer Care at Morley. Once again I am told to go to JB HIFI, **bleep**  Smith, Harvey Norman, Telechoice.
I feel like I have been sold a phone for which there are no batteries. With every other mobile phone I have owned I have always had a spare battery, especially when travelling overseas. No wonder it was “cheap”.
I am now faced with travelling overseas with a phone for which there is no possibility of purchasing a spare battery.
I sincerely hope that no-one is buying these phones to run their business with.
I am extremely disappointed and I would advise that nobody purchases this product. Which is a shame since I was happy with the product. It simply never occurred to me that there were no replacement batteries for this product. If I had known that I would not have purchased it.

Hi rednomad,
Thanks for your contribution and thanks for posting.
Sorry to hear you are having a hard time finding an additional battery for your Lumia 710. The Lumia 710 uses the BP-3L battery which should be available through any Nokia Care Point. A list of Nokia Care Points in Perth can be found here. If the battery is not available they should be able to order one for you.
Also if you search for 'Nokia Lumia 710 Battery BP-3L' on the web you will find a number of sources within Australia which will be able to provide you with this battery model. Make sure though you buy an original Nokia battery.
Hope this helps,
Kosh

  • 1600.3031.8779.12180 update for nokia lumia 710

    Hi , I am using Nokia lumia 710 ..
    My phone's firmware version is - 1600.3031.8773.12121 and one of my friend's phone is running on 1600.3031.8779.12180 ...
    Why i didn't got that update .....
    My phone is 059M161 same as my friends RM code
    please tell me how can i update my device because i also tried Zune but it is also not showing any updates
    Please help me
    Moderators notes: IMEI number removed.

    Here's an example for you to understand.
    Let say, you just bought a phone with the earliest firmware. And you planned to upgrade your phone to the latest firmware. When you update it through Zune, it will automatically update the first update, then second update, third update until the latest update. It will update all those one by one and it will tell you to unplug your phone when the latest update is updated on your phone.
    Your friend's phone is updated, but probably not on the latest one.
    Anyway, you might want to check your phone for the latest update. It is available for your phone according on your product code. If your phone has camera extras, Internet Sharing and Flip-To-Silence features, it means your phone is fully updated to the latest update.
    You can check this website for more information.

    And here's your phone's product code that is actually available for the update.

  • NOKIA Lumia 710: Touch screen focus no longer work...

    Hello.
    I've only had my Lumia 710 for two weeks.  Up until 4 days ago, the touch screen focus attribute was working perfectly.  I was taking pictures and it simply stopped working.
    I've since tried resetting the camera options back to defaults with no luck.  I recently updated the phones software pn 10.18.2012 with no change either.  I also took out the battery and sim card out of frustration and obviously had no luck.
    Aside from having to do a hard reset, does anyone have any suggestions regarding how to possibly fix this?
    Maybe I'm missing an obvious and simple setting?  Maybe not. Lol
    Thank you. :-)

    Hi Oddmoore,
    Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
    Normally Nokia Lumia 710 should focus on the part you tap with your finger (and show a reticle while doing so) and snap a picture. There is no setting to switch this off, so it should be working by default.  We would advise you to reset your phone at Settings > About > Reset your phone. Just remember to backup your media files before doing so, because it will wipe your phone clean. If the issue persists, visit your local Nokia Care point and let them have a look. 
    Hope this helps!

    Hello, comima. Yes. You have to use the Zune software to sync or transfer your files between your phone and your computer. Also, you won't be able to update the phone's software without the said tool. To know more about it, you can visit this link: Get to know the Zune software. If you decided to uninstall it, your files are still saved on the computer. In case you would like to delete the photos at the same time, just look for the folder on your computer. We look forward to your reply.  

  • Memory storage distribution in nokia lumia 710

    I am using Nokia lumia 710. I have downloaded 4 games and taken some photos and videos from my mobile. Mobile is giving instruction to delete something and showing full memory. I think it shouldn't happen because it has 8 G.B. Internal memory. So what to do to solve this problem.

    Have you downloaded a lot of map data for Nokia Drive? These usually account for a large amount of memory usage. Also clear browser cache, check emails, especially those with large attachments and also messgges.

  • How do i get adresses from iphone to nokia lumia 710

    how do i get adressbook from iphone or mac tot nokia lumia 710?

    If you want your photos to end up in iPhoto, just do a normal sync. If you don't want to use iPhoto, or if you just want to put your phone photos in a normal visible folder on the desktop, luckily when you plug in the iPhone a Mac sees it like a camera or card reader. This means the iPhone will show up in common applications that have an import-from-camera feature. I've copied photos off my iPhone using Apple Image Capture, PhoneView, and Adobe Lightroom, for example.

  • Facebook stopped working on Nokia Lumia 710

    I cannot access or add my facebook account to my Nokia Lumia 710 windows phone. Earlier today the people app stopped updating notifications from facebook. When I looked at the account info it said the account "required attention" I tried to sync then re-enter my password. The phone then said it had trouble connecting to facebook. I deleted the account then tried to re-add it. When I tried to add it said "something went wrong"
    What do I do?

    Same issue here with my lumia 800. I went for a run last night about 9pm and was doing the same by the time I got back about 9:45pm
    Anyone else had this?
    The Facebook app doesn't work either. Facebook mobile works so I can access it so I know the password is correct.

  • Nokia lumia 710 & dropbox.

    Why can't I vieuw most of my videos ( mp4 ) with dropbox on my nokia lumia 710 please ? Are they too long ?
    Thanks for your help.

    Well some app/program is not tidying up after itself. It is difficult to advice which not knowing how you use your phone and what apps you use. The ones I mentioned earlier are some of the more common culprits. If you can figure it out then you may have to resort to resetting your phone if it continues to drop to a critical level.

    Hi aizat_AxJ,
    Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!
    According to the product data sheet, Nokia Lumia 710 has 8 GB internal memory, of which up to 6.5 GB is available for the user. However, this amount can change depending on the installed updates and applications you have on your phone. If you risk running out of memory, you can always use Skydrive to store your images and other files.

  • Nokia Lumia 710: external keyboard?

    Is there any way to use an external keyboard for the Lumia 710? I am a college student that doesn't really want to shell out for a new tablet and keyboard, and I know that the 710 has Microsoft Office on it, even if it is mobile. I know there is the whole bluetooth issue, but I was wondering if anyone has found anything compatible with it, like perhaps the Nokia SU-8W keyboard or even maybe a tablet keyboard using a USB-to-mini USB converter?

    My Lumia 710 had a virtual keyboard problem. Letters "T", "F", "C" in portarait mode and I could not touch the + sign to start a new SMS message. I could not touch the check mark, which is located about the same place where the + sing is on the screen. I went through all the updates through Zune program hooked up to the PC, but it didn't change anything. I concluded that it was the digitizer malfunctioning. I replaced the digitizer just now and it resolved all my touch problems. I hope this helps those with similar issues on their Lumia 710.

  • Nokia lumia 710 8ody

    i am using nokia lumia 710.unfortunately my mobile body has broken.so i want to change my body.where can i buy nokia lumia 710 body and what is the cost of nokia lumia710 body.

    Unfortunately it's against the rules of this forum to provide links to websites that sell parts that aren't designed to be changed by the user.
    The only advice we can give you here is to contact a Nokia care point and ask them if they can replace the broken part for you. Only they can tell you the cost.
