Nokia Lumia 2520 - stuck in updating mode.

I have a new Lumia 2520, which I began to commission today. I got it to look for updates, and it found a large number to download and install including one for the firmware. It appeared to download them, but then installation of all of them repeatedly failed, with the error message saying that an update was already in progress. I left it for four hours, still the same. Then from experience in commissioning Windows PCs I set it to restart and during the closedown sequence it came up with a blue screen and a message "Keep your PC on until this is done. Installing update 1 of 5".
Nine hours later the same message is displayed. The tablet is plugged into the charger, and is sitting adjacent to the wifi router: it has power and connectivity. Online information suggests that no update to this device should take more than 25-30 minutes. It just seems stuck: won't switch on, won't switch off.
What's wrong, and what can I do about it?
Thank you.

Hi, auchindrain. How's your tablet now? If you're still having the same issue, best to try the troubleshooting steps shown at this link: Lumia 2520 - Need help in fixing a problem?. Note that this link is intended for a specific region; search the same FAQ in the local MS Mobile support page: MS Mobile - Change locale.
We'll wait for your response. BTW, welcome to the Microsoft Mobile Community!

Connection problem with Nokia Lumia 2520 tablet

I found the problem when connecting Nokia Lumia 2520 Tablet to Linksys EA4500 router WiFi network "Wireless-N" mode. TheInternet and local network connection disappears after a few minutes, the ping test fails. In "Wireless-A" mode (5 GHz) and "Wireless-G" mode (2,4 GHz) connection is normal, but i need more speed!
When i have connect this tablet to the other routers in mode Wireless-N connectivity problems do not occur.
Reset the router and the tablet to the factory defaults does not help.
Router firmware version - 2.1.39.145204
Nokia Lumia 2520 have Qualcomm Atheros AR6x04 WLAN Adapter

Disable 5ghz wireless and use only wireless N.

I have updated to IOS 6, the App store won't work, is stuck in update mode for 1 day and the battery now goes flat in 3 hrs without use. Can I go back to IOS 5?

Hi, I was forced to upgrade to IOS 6 due to a restore.
Since the upgrade, I have lost information, the App store is stuck in update mode, my battery drains in hours and many more problems.
Is there a way to go back to the VERY RELIABLE IOS 5? This phone is nearly useless now.
Thanks

Just FYI - the situation is resolved. I downloaded the new snow leopard 10.6.8 update for safari and now itunes works. I have no idea what that has to do with anything - but I saw it on another forum and it actually worked.

Adapter micro HDMI to VGA for Nokia Lumia 2520

could someone tell me which adapter micro HDMI to VGA is suitable for Nokia Lumia 2520 please?

Hi, melpa. Welcome to our community. There's no particular brand, but it should be HDMI-D. You may try checking the stores near your place for the price and availability.

Nokia Lumia 2520 Charger

I bought a Nokia Lumia 2520 Tablet
One charger comes in the box. The tablet doesnt charge through usb port (data only).
There appears to be no chargers on sale (anywhere!) for this tablet.
What happens if:
The one I have breaks, is faulty, is lost, left at a hotel etc etc etc.
I want to charge the tablet in my car
Where can I get another charger from??? The current situation leaves me in a very precarious situation. If i was to lose my charger - my tablet would be unusable as I would never be able to charge it again - £400 down the drain.
Can someone please tell me where I can get a charger from?

No guarantees, but found this at Amazon. Right specs, looks like the right connector. 2520 Charger
Another one Just chatted with the MS Store and they suggested calling them at 800-642-7676 and see if they can find one. Good luck. Looks like Verizon and AT&T bailed on them. Might try calling their support, especially if you bought from one of them.
BTW, be careful. There are tons of chargers that claim to be Lumi 2520 cell phone chargers, etc, that clearly are 5v, i.e. USB, chargers. The 2520 does NOT charge off USB, as you probably know. The two I linked are the proper voltage at least, 20v.
And there is a thread here that says the Samsung series 7 slate charger works. It is 19v, but that could actually work. If it were me, I think I'd risk the Samsung. Got an actual confirmation from a real guy.

Faulty Nokia lumia 2520 charger

I have learned Nokia has suspended sales of its lumia 2520 due to risk of electric shock from the charger.
I use Nokia lumia 2520 for my day to day work.
My charger so far work well!
Let me know the serial numbers of the faulty chargers and the procedure for replacing.
We have not received any communication from Nokia about this serious fault!
Really disappointed about the customer care!
Solved!

Nuwankul,
Nokia recently released a product advisory about the aformentioned charger at http://www.nokia.com/global/2520-charger
Quoting from the product advisory page: "Microsoft Mobile is today encouraging consumers in Austria, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Russia and Switzerland with the affected charger to register their details so that Microsoft Mobile can provide a remedy that will address the product quality issue. Those consumers with an affected charger will be sent a replacement EU plug to attach to their charger base. We will also send a gift voucher to those people that register on the website by 31 May 2014, to help compensate for the inconvenience caused by this situation."
"For those with an affected charger, we recommend that you register using this web-form to enable Microsoft Mobile to provide a replacement plug for the affected part. www.nokia.com/gb-en/support/contact/ "

Nokia Lumia 2520 Power Keyboard

Hey Everyone. I have a slight problem. I recently purchased this tablet (Nokia Lumia 2520) because I was looking for neither a tablet or laptop. I wanted both. So I came to contact my Verizon dealer, who recommended this tablet because "It comes with a keyboard out of the box." However, as you may know, I opened the box and of course no keyboard!
I've been researching how to aquire this keyboard, and I've come to no avail. I can't buy it and I can't get my free one.
I'm greatly satisfied with the tablet so far. I have no doubts it's a fantastic product.
However, I've come to a crossroads with the keyboard. I'm greatly disappointed in the false advertisement.
What do you recommend I do?
I'd like to keep the tablet, but I'm not about to pay upwards of $120 for something that was supposed to come with it. I'll return it before that happens.

your only option of those peovided is to return it. you may recommend further training for the sales reps as well. the rep will hopeflly learn as $500 is a decent chunk of commission lost.

Does nokia Lumia 630 support denim update

respected sir myself Amol I want to know that does Nokia Lumia 630 support denim update I am from India if not then when it will be available.
thank you.
best regards,
amol

Hello,
you can check here ([1]) which release is available for your device. For the Lumia 630 in India that is the Cyan release.
[2] reads "For all other Lumia Windows Phone 8 smartphones, the update will start rolling out during Q4 2014, following partner testing and approvals", so I think
it is only a matter of time when the update is deployed to the Lumia 630 in India.

Silverlight on Nokia Lumia 2520

I am trying to watch BT sport on my Nokia Lumia 2520 but says I need Microsoft Silverlight. Any ideas how I can do this?

Hi Jennifer,
I believe the Lumia 2520 is a non Intel\AMD processor, maybe ARM. This would mean Silverlight is not supported.

Nokia lumia 2520 two observed bugs

Yesterday, i bought a nokia lumia 2520 (UK) and till now i observed two bugs:
1. Reader App froze the screen. I was reading a pdf and the screen froze, the solution was to hold the power button to hard reboot the device.
2. Infinite restarting. i shutted down the table with 3% of battery. After that i tried to turn on the device and a infinite loop of restarts was started, and it continued even after "Automatic Repair". In order to solve the problem, i plugged the power adapter.
Probably these failures caused because of the Windows RT OS, and i would like to inform nokia about them because the tablet (hardware+nokia apps) is awesome.

I'm having a similar issue here in the US. I bought my Nokia Lumia 2520 tablet 5 days ago. It has crashed on me everyday and generally have been able to get it to reboot. I tried a hard reset and yesterday tried to do a "refresh" of Windows RT. It worked fine after everything and so I used it last night and put it away without charging it because wanted to see if the battery would last with it off overnight. I woke up this morning (9 hours later) and the camera light keeps blinking and it won't boot. I left it to charge for two hours and it still has the blinking camera light and even though the Windows button vibrates, there is nothing on the screen. I have tried to power off and on, I have tried to hold down power and volume down for 70 seconds (both numerous times now) with no luck. It seems to have bricked, minus the blinking light and vibrating windows key. Anyone else have any suggestions? I really would hate to return it cause last time had a problem AT&T tried to screw me over with sending a used device instead of the new one I paid for.

Nokia Lumia 800 won't update!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

Yes, I know there are already several topics on this but I'm pretty desperate now.
I receive a Nokia Lumia 800 in December for christmas (I know it's not the latest but my family doens't have all that much money). Since christmas day I have been trying to obtain the update for the Lumia. The one that fixes battery and stuff. I've tried search for updates and I've tried searching using Zune. I've had NO success at all. I've tolerated the many flaws in my Lumia such as the lack of a screenshot ability and the bluetooth issue. Those are but two of many. I really want to like this phone and so far, I've only managed to become annoyed by it. I refuse to switch to iOS and I don't have the money for a decent android so I ask, does anyone know of any way I can get updates for my Lumia 800?

Pretty sure it's running the latest updates.
A lumia 720 would probably have been (much) cheaper, is faster overall, runs the latest Windows Phone OS (WP8.0 GDR3 with Nokia Black FW) and will be receiving at least the next major OS update.

Nokia Lumia 2520 Outdoor readibility/ " enhanced o...

Hello,
I'm a student from europe and keen to buy a tablet. I'm looking @ the lumia 2520 and must say that so far it is looking good! Most of all, I'm interested in the " enhanced outdoor readibility " and since I'm often on the go or outside that would be one of my prime concerns. I didn't realize that it was available until after I saw the ad with the dog.
I'd like to know, if anybody could explain to me a little more what that "enhanced outdoor readibility" actually is?
Because I still have my doubts! (not to mention the limited RT operating system) Is there a technology behind it or does it merely have do with good resolution and the 650 nits that you can also see in the specs. Does it go by a name...?
I'd like to learn a little more about it before I make a choice.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It's basically the Clearblack technology Nokia developed for their phones but on the next level.
There are several articles around the internet explaining the technology, amongst others on Nokia Conversations here.

Nokia Lumia 2520

I have the Lumia 2520 keyboard cover. I have had to replace it within one week of purchase. The reason for this was that some of the keys did not work. Now the same issue is happening to the replacement. More and more letters are not working on the keyboard. I am so tired of it I don't feel like trying to get a replacement. Nokia did a poor job on the keyboard for the Lumia 2520.

hi mate sorry to hear of your experience. in this case you will need to persist with your retailer/Nokia Care until the issue is resolved to your satisfaction
