Nokia 1020 Auto MMS

I have a Nokia 1020 on 3 (three.co.uk).
If I use characters that have accents e.g. ô or â (when I use them for typing in Welsh) the SMS changes to MMS automatically, and a long SMS may change into 2 MMS messages which I have to pay for under my contract
(I've onlyu just noticed and not sure how much this is costing me!)
I've uploaded a screenshot showing the character count at the bottom of the text message.
Solved!

Not a real solution but you could always change to reduced SMS character set in Settings > network+:

  • Photo - Nokia 1020: how the best camera phone in t...

    Dear Nokia, 
    I am a huge photo addict and i cannot tell u how excited i was when i first lay my hands on the famous 41Mpx of the nokia 1020. Still - this camera phone became the worst - especially with the nokia black OS update.
    With Nokia black update i choose to finally take my high res pix into the .DNG format.
    The previous settings (34Mp JPEG) was not satisfactory as clearly the jpeg compression in the phone was not good enough.
    Now that i take 41Mpix .DNG files - here are my issues :
    - No way to retrieve the original 41Mpx that to plug a USB cable to my PC (come on - we are getting to 2014!)
    - No way to watch my brand new raw pictures as .DNG is unsupported by Win8 (i needed to download an Adobe .DNG codec that still does not display thumbnail correctly in Win Explorer - but at least i can open them)
    - No way to share my high res pictures : as neither SkyDrive, nor Flickr or any website do accept .DNG files uploaded
    - Even when i convert my .dng file to uncompressed .jpeg or .png... well once uploaded to SkyDrive, the thumbnail created by SkyDrive is recompressing the pictures and showing the ugly pixel squares in the skies i wanted to avoid.
    - the Low Res 5 Mpix of my pictures - i can share wirelessly anywhere - but they all look worse than any average phone picture (iPhone 4S would do an 8 Mpix of any pictures)
    So i have got a hard time to understand your strategy here : why anyone would shift from high res .jpeg (12Mb per pictures) to high res .dng (41 Mb per picture!) on a 32Gb storage phone... if none of this pictures can be watched on a PC or decently shared on the internet ???
    At least you could have tried better by adopting a more compatible format like .RAW ?

    DNG images are supposed to be processed and edited before sharing. The format is owned by Adobe which would be why you need their codec/applications.
    I would suggest you teach yourself the basics of photo editing and composition as from your remarks it would seem you expect expert results to happen as if by magic which will not happen. You images will only be as good as your imagination and creativity.
    Stay on processed and auto mode if you feel you are not able to properly deal with DNG files as this is not as easy as many seem to think. DNG mode _depends_ on you doing the processing of the images and knowing what you are doing and how to do it.

  • Can not transfer contacts from Nokia 1020 Windows ...

    Can not transfer contacts from Nokia 1020 Windows Phone to Mercedes C. Windows Phone states that it is only voice connection when trying to transfer data, and if sharing, Mercedes will not show up as bluetooth device at all. However Merceds show Noika as a device. I tried other phones and they work, smart phones and not smart phones. What to do?

  • Nokia 1020 lumia camera issue (and flashlight X)

    Hello!
    I do not know this absolutely but I noticed after I downloaded a couple of updates, including an update to Flashlight X, on my nokia 1020 that it suddenly started taking pictures on its own back to back with out stopping. The phone also got warm and the battery would deplete.
    This was all a couple of days ago. Since, I have deleted the Flashlight x app and this camera problem seems to have gone away.
    So far so good. Again its just a hypothesis.
    Best,
    Jay

    hi mate, in this case you will need to contact the developer of the app, as we are a user to user forum only for Nokia products and services.

  • 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:
    http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/how-to/wp8/settings-and-personalization/back-up-my-stuff
    Since this is a newly purchased phone, you may consider coordinating this matter with the retailer and askabout their store policy.

  • All my contacts in Nokia 1020 is deleted

    My new Nokia 1020 has deleted all my contact. And I can't add a new contact either.
    I just get a warning when I try to add another contact, 'that my Hotmail-contacts are hidden from the list at the moment'.
    My Hotmail contact are only mail addresses, those I don't want in my phone diary anyway. So that is ok.
    Anyone that can tell me how to get my phonebook / contact working again on my 1020?

    Are you using a different battery?
    Have you "over clocked"?
    Does it power off when you are actively using the phone?

  • Nokia 1020 wireless charging

    Hey guys
    I will be buying the Nokia 1020 with the wireless charging cover soon. I just want to know if this phone will be compatiable with a QI wireless car holder/charger.
    It's one of these:
    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/QI-Wireless-Car-Charger-Pad-Holder-for-Phone-Nokia-Lumia-920-820-HTC-8X-/1...
    It says it supports a samsung galaxy note 3 so it much be able to fit a Nokia 1020 in, tried contacting the seller; no help. They just sent me the same compatible list that is on the product description.
    I think it will work but I don't get why they don't mention it, they mention all the phones that doesn't come with a genuine wireless charging. Like iphone doesn't support wireless charging, some company made them specially for them.
    Anyway, I just want your opinion.
    Thanks.

    Unfortunately Nokia does not have access to retailers stocks so you will need to contact retailers directly for that information. You'll probably find that if you visit a large mall you'll find plenty of stores selling them.

  • Nokia 1020: browse through apps without touching t...

    Hello,
    Last couple of days my Nokia 1020 starts browsing through all the apps randomly without me touching the screen. Music starts, photo app is opening, etc.. If I go back to the home screen, it starts again and it freeze after a while. The only think I can do is to restart (power key and volume down). Nothing on the screen is responding. 
    The screen is not dirty and does not have any visible damage, the problem started out of nowhere. 
    Any tips?
    Thank you,
    Cristian

    Welcome to the forum, @CChie. Let's try other fixes with your phone. See: http://bit.ly/1vTc1Xr. We'd appreciate any feedback from you about the outcome of doing the provided troubleshooting steps in the link. All the best! 
    Good day, @Patonthenet. Are you experiencing the same issue as Cchie? By the way, we saw your post entitled "Cyan Update FAULT". Is that issue resolved now? We look forward to your reply. 

  • 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.

    I fully agree with your assessment. And I don't like to be treated like a monkey.
    Nokia is showing such a low respect and care to their customers, especially in the Middle East. They became maybe too big to care for their customers. Apparently they have forgotten that what made them so big is precisely those customers they are ignoring today. It is a pity.
    I am looking for a solution for the same problem since 9 month ow: updating middle east maps on my Nokia 500 Auto Navigation. thout any positive result.
    What is making this case looking even worst is the promises I got from my Nokia reseller that maps WILL be updated on a regula basis!!! But till today, total blackout from our friends at Nokia.
    And the funny thing : while typing this note, a popup appeared on my screen about Customer Feedback on the qualiity of Nokia support. They are really incredible those guys.

  • Hard resetting a nokia 1020, some questions, mainl...

    Hi,
    im having problems with my Nokia 1020, it hasn't got space, i remove apps and games and in one or two days the problem arises again, i don't know if i have two much photos and/or if it is a problem with bad-behaved apps with banners.
    Anyway, i want to hardreset it.
    I've already read:
    http://www.windowsphone.com/en-gb/how-to/wp8/settings-and-personalization/reset-my-phone
    and:
    http://www.windowsphone.com/en-gb/how-to/wp8/settings-and-personalization/back-up-my-stuff
    It seems pretty stray forward... but i would like to ask if i create a backup, during restore i have the option to carefully select what is restored?
    Is the main interface backed up, with all the links?
    Questions about 1020 photos and onedrive:
    - how do the photo files work on 1020? Does my onedrive account have both the 34 and the 5 mb version?
    (- if i want to create a 5mb version of a 34mb, has the phone software the ability to do that?)
    - does onedrive account has all the files that my 1020 has? Because my 1020 has 17gb of photos, and my onedrive\images folder has 5gb...
    - admiting that it has a full backup of photos, can i delete them on the phone without deleting them from onedrive.com / my PC's onedrive folder?
    - is there a simple way to compare photos over the phone and on PC or onedrive.com?
    I ask this because in my computer (and online) i have organized then with folders, and videos that exist appear near them, but in my phone i can only see the photos organized by date - so it seems difficult to confirm that they are both equal.
    Thanks and regards

    Hi @Lrmmf_ ,
    If in your shoes I would secure a backup through USB to a PC before proceeding - not to the OneDrive folder on the PC - but somewhere else on the hard drive for safe keeping. There are too many variables regarding the settings on the phone used while taking the pictures and recording videos. Altering the settings regarding backup resolution only works for pictures and videos recorded after altering the setting. Clearly not everything is backed up to OneDrive when you have 12GB more on the phone than in the cloud, most likely the full resolution images are missing.
    The restore after a factory reset does not restore pictures and videos to the phone. Those already uploaded are safe in the cloud and can be accessed via the OneDrive app on the phone. Lumia Black required a lot of work after a restore and i.e. games progress were not backed up. This has changed with Lumia Cyan, but there will still be some manual work after a factory reset and restore.
    I suggest spend a rainy day to first backup all media files to the PC, then still via USB delete the big resolution files and media files not needed on the phone. Then think again if the hard reset is needed at all? - There is now a Files manager by Microsoft in the store for Windows Phone, it is just easier to perform these tasks on a PC via USB.
    Duplicates are better than missing files! I still have a lot of clean-up waiting to bring my local backups in sync with OneDrive, maybe it will never happen.

  • Nokia 500 auto navigation will not work

    I have a nokia 500 auto navigation and it will not show maps or it start to boot and freezup and will not work Help!

    I had the same problem a couple of months after activating the gps.
    I think my problem came up after I had loaded some songs and video onto the SD card.
    I used the DVD to restore the maps etc. Be careful with that. The software to run the video/music is not included on the restore DVD.
    I had to do the restore multiple times. Finally, I found an update on the Nokia website and did the update. DON'T DO THAT = my bluetooth has now stopped working. Bluetooth says it's on and you can turn it off, however, there's no change. It says on, but no devices can connect to the gps anymore.
    Frustrated with Nokia? YES. I have had it sent back, but since I bought it on ebay, forget about that.

  • Nokia 500 auto navigation

    Hello!
    I live in Portugal and I bought the nokia 500 auto gps. While searching the nokia pages I saw the update for my nokia. I made the update and all went fine. Then when i got to use the fm transmiter i saw that the frequency i used was no longer possible. I use frequency 108.0 witch worked prior to the update now the range goes up to 107.9. I can´t use this frequency because it was many jams and there is no other possible. Can i correct my gps so that i can use the frequency 108.0 again? Because in this way I can't use the FM transmitter. Please can someone help me?

    I dont live in Portugal but surely you have more options than 108.0....
    most FM radios go from 85.0 to 108.0 or so....
    I use the FM transmitter on my N500 with the defualt 88.1 FM
    Im not sure i understand your problem....does Portugal have THAT many FM radio stations that you have NO empty FM frequencies? Or is your radio not working correctly and you cant tune in an unused frequency?
