Nokia Lumia 521 3G not working

Hi,
I have a carrier unlocked Lumia 521 which I am trying to use in Asia. I am unable to connect to my carrier's 3G network even though network's carrier frequency is 2100.
What could be the problem ?
Thanks,
Rishabh

Because the 520 is a global variant while it seems the 521 is exclusive to T-Mobile US only

Nokia Lumia 720 Touch not working even after repla...

Hi ,
I had bought lumia 720 on 31/05/2013 , but on 28/12/2013 the touch was not working or the touch was working on its own. Since my phone was in warranty then, they replaced the touch free of cost. But again from 20/08/2014 my phone is having the same problem, touch not working. When i showed it to Nokia care, they told that again they need to replace the touch , it will cost around Rs. 7950 (since my phone was out of warranty this time)... My question is, within 1 year 2 months , twice the touch pad has problem. What kind of phone it is .... Please think before buying Nokia touch phones, I think still they are far behind in touch screen technology ( no offense :-) )....
Not only me, one of my friend also facing same problem with Lumia 720 ....

Not beeing familiar with other countries consumer laws and consumer rights, I can only speak for my self and Norway. But as far as I'm concerned I would have expected extended rights for the new parts and the labour. - If however the fault can relate to the parts involved with the mentioned replacement.
But if this is not possible in your country, there isn't much to do other than repair it for pay or leave it.

Nokia Lumia 920 wifi not working

Hi
My brand new Nokia Lumia 920 cannot connect to my wifi.
It keeps saying that I type the wrong password, which i do not.
All other devices in my house connect just fine.
I have tried switching channel on my router and change from WPA PSK to WEP but nothing helps.
Any suggestions?

I'll link to another discussion that had a resolution that worked for me. This is the only place I saw a resolution for the problem.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphone/forum/wp8-wpnetwork/lumia-920-refuses-to-connect-to-wifi...
Basically, I changed my router settings from mixed 802.11 b/g to 802.11 g only. Now it connects, no problem.
Good luck.

I am really disappointed and getting forstrated by Nokia...
what can I do?

Hello, victovic2000.
Thank you for posting and welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions.
Sorry for the inconvenience it is causing you. By the way, how was the phone now? Is it still doing the same thing? Is it happening to the default camera only or same with the other camera app? Did something happen to your phone prior to the issue? Is your phone's software up-to-date?
You may check if there's an available software update for your phone by going to Settings > Phone updates. Note that a stable internet connection is needed. We encourage you to use Wi-Fi instead. You may also consider doing a 'full reset' by going to Settings > About > Reset your phone. Make sure to backup your files to avoid data loss. Here's how: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/how-to/wp8/basics/back-up-my-stuff.
Let us know the outcome.

Nokia lumia 920 camera not working

I have tried resetting it in settings and restarting phone but my camera app doesn't work regardless how I try to utilize it, Facebook or directly from menu. The screen is just totally black.
help appreciated, will I have to take this back?

Hi cgaskin,
Welcome to the forum!
It might be that the problem is with the hardware of the phone already since reset didn't fix it. If your phone is still in the replacement period then you should contact your retailer to get a replacement. However, if your retailer can't help you, it is best to send it to Nokia Care Point.

Hi, PeroXide.
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
The equalizer for the Nokia Lumia 521 is not supported due to hardware limitations.

Unlock nokia lumia 521

how can i unlock nokia lumia 521???

Hi, phantom77. Thanks for posting your inquiry in the community. What do you mean by 'unlock'? Are you referring to your phone's password or the restriction code that enables you to use another SIM card from another operator?
If you're looking for the restriction code, it is only provided by the operator to whom your phone is tied up with. If you're referring to your phone's password & you forgot it, you may need to perform a reset to be able to access it again. However, do note that this process will wipe all your phone's data. Here's a guide on how to reset using the hardware combinations: FAQ - My Lumia phone does not work or respond as expected. The link is applicable regardless of your location. Hope this helps.

Is the time zone and time set correctly?
Go to email, tap sync on the bottom, does this work?

NOKIA 202 RED BUTTON NOT WORKING

I JUST TURNED OFF MY PHONE 202 AND after some time i try to switch on that phone but red button not worked and other keybuttons works good and i try flash the phone but it says remove cable and batery and put cable and put batery and power on but funny thing is my red button not worked and i just got dull finally i am asking you guys is there any solution to power on i try almost all key board tricks i.e * 3 gren red etc or a software to power on.MY NOKIA 202 RED BUTTON NOT WORKING

Hi, DEVRAMP. How did you flash your phone? Is there a battery indicator when you charge it? You may try the following solution below:
Check that the keypad is not locked.
Make sure that all keys are responding correctly when they are pressed. In some cases, a key may get stuck and freeze the whole keypad.
Try removing and replacing the covers (if your phone supports that feature). Check that the power and side keys on the cover are properly aligned (e.g. pushed out) to their respective positions to have a proper tactile feel when pressing the keys.
Keep us posted.

Unlock code for Nokia Lumia 521

Need unlock code for Nokia Lumia 521 bought in USA to use in Europe please.

Hi, ToT2.
Welcome to the forum.
Your phone was sold at a subsidized price as part of a network package. Whether you brought directly from the network operator or from a 3rd-party retailer, the price you paid was subsidized by the network operator in return for using their services. Only the operator concerned can legally provide the unlocking information to you. It is possible that your network operator may charge a fee for this.

Mah nokia lumis 710 camera not working... what to...

mah nokia lumis 710 camera not working... what to do????

When you try to open the camera either by hitting the camera key or going to the app list, what happens?
1. Reboot the phone. Press the volume down and power keys together for 15 seconds until the phone vibrates and starts up.
2. Check that the software of the phone is updated.
3. Reset the phone by going to Settings > About. This deletes all the content of the phone so make sure to create a backup copy of your files. See "Reset and restore your phone" in this link to backup important data on the phone: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2606900.
If above steps would not help, bringing the phone to a Nokia Care Point is what I'd suggest: http://www.nokia.com/global/support/locations/

Nokia Lumia 521 - WiFi connected, but no internet ...

I have a brand new Lumia 521 on T-Mobile. I set up the wifi connection and it shows connected. However, there is no internet connection. Cannot download any app or anything.
Trouble Shooting: Rebooted the phone couple of times. Turned on/off wifi. delete/re-connect wifi.
Reboot wireless router couple of times.
Turned off the data service on my phone and only wifi is on now. Checked my router that there is an entery for my Windows Phone, but could not get any logs.
Nothing helped so far...
Loaded my sim with funds, thinking if something no fund is blocking it somewhere :-D
Everything is fine on my other smartphones.
Did I receive a faulty device?
Solved!

At least you have 8.1. Those of us with 521 not updated yet, no real answers. Someone at Nokia going to close thread cuz no one posting. What to post, you should've been a politician with the no answer answer. Whole experience makes me rethink Microsoft and Nokia altogether. Both companies I used to believe in and support. Even word and excel don't sync well from phone to desktop. Backup for what? Only if you reset phone. That is backup even DOS using command lines would have been ashamed of (honestly so long ago don't remember if it had backup but I know my 386SX did) Pictures duplicate, triplicate and repopulate after deleted and I have backup to cloud turned off. seems Microsoft thinks differently than I about this issue? It continues to bring back a pic of EX that i hate...Great reminder!!!!. Phone storage eaten and not accessible to delete. Not allowed to delete certain apps that came with phone. Now I delete apps I prefer and no space becomes available? Do not use Nokia cinemagraph. Can't be viewed anywhere but on phone without converting. And what phone/camera has no flash? My parents old 110 (I think) at least had a cube. Poloroid built in...just saying that was the early 80s. Now lock screen and theme (ugly muted colors, btw) not working, can't get space back even when hooked to desktop, use cloud 6 now to keep phone and cloud from changing between app and desktop, have to convert all Nokia files, and most apps not available from what I can gather because Microsoft limits us. Nokia and Microsoft, get your acts together before marketing with one another. And, have answers to these questions. If you can't do it right, don't do it all. Maybe best to walk away from one another. Although, other than poor apps and flimsy phone, I am more disappointed in a guru conglomerate that doesn't care about the user. You keep trying to catch up with Mac and Droid...not at this rate. Excel fave program to use and love outlook. But this is crap on a stick, SOS and plain junk. And, the mighty do fall. I remember original Apple having market, commodore 64 and Tandy? Two of the three no longer exist. IBM was a typewriter back then, as far as I was aware. For Nokia, Here doesn't usually get me to correct place with full addy and zip entered) Not a good platform or flimsy phone. Can't wait to go back to Droid....so, I suggest every time I can't find an answer from one of your sites, you stop asking what I think. Here it is. And, I could keep going and going....atop asking if you don't give a hoot.. and, I'm sure this will never be posted cuz Microsoft determines what I can and can't do with this thing
