Nokia Lumia 800, Depleted battery Won't start up.

Hi,  After being away for home for 5 days with no charger for my Nokia lumia 800, I foolishly allowed it to run out of battery, Unaware of the problems this can cause due faulty hardware, thanks to Nokia I returned home and plugged the phone into charge. I have allowed my Phone to run out of battery many times before in the past as you wouldn't expect any problem to come of it. After many hours of the phone being on charge I went to turn it on, it vibrated and came up with the phone providers image then no further, it stayed on this image for hours until I held down the power button and  it would turn itself off. Not being to worried at this point I went online to the many chatrooms, helpline, youtube videos you name it to source a solution. Having tried absolutely everything, about 10 times nothing has worked to multiple button combinations, heating the phone up, plugging into PC with zune - everything. Now slightly worried as I really do want this phone to work and not have to buy a new one at a great cost.  This is not a problem I have cause, it's a problem with Nokia, and the manufacturing of the phone, So if no one on  here will be able to aid me in fixing the phone, once I return to the UK I shall take it into a Nokia store to get it looked at, which i won't be happy to do as many of the Nokia outlets are in unconventional locations such as Glasgow.
Thank in advance for any Help which is much appreciated,
Lambtj

You are posting to a user to user support forum here and not contact ing Nokia Care. If the 800 will not start anymore and you have done all you say you have done it's likely the battery needs to be replaced.

  • Nokia Lumia 800. Battery and start up problems

    Hi there,
    I have been having quite a lot of problems with my nokia lumia 800.
    Firstly: When the battery dies it takes a long time to get it charged back up. I have tried cycling the charger power between the laptop and power outlet. I have to play around with the power supply for a long time before the unit actually starts charging. And even then when it has just enough charge, it tries to start up but seems to run out of power half way through the start up and I end up back playing with the charging again.
    It seems that there is no battery protection in the phone and the battery can completely discharge. Which would account for the problem with getting it to charge back up.
    Secondly: Yesterday the phone went dead for no reason. It had about a quarter charge in the battery. I tried to turn it back on but nothing. I tried charging it and nothing.
    Again after cycling the power many times between the power outlet and the laptop, I got some response. It vibrated and displayed the low battery screen. So I thought ok, it's charging. But no.
    Once it has enough battery it tries to start up and then freezes on the provider logo and does not go any further. The screen stays like this. Illuminated and with the logo.
    I have tried reseting the unit by holding the power button down for 10seconds and it vibrates and tries to start up again. But again freezes.
    I have noticed that when I leave it charging, the unit gets quite warm. But no matter what I do the startup proceedure stops on the provider logo and no more.
    I tried starting it with the charger connected and it just seems to be powering the screen because when I unplug it the unit goes dead again within a matter of minutes.
    I am at a total loss as to what happened to my phone.
    Can someone help please?

    From the sound of it I think it needs a Nokia Care Point. Could be faulty battery or faulty charging.  You can locate your nearest care point using the link below

  • 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 800 won't charge, stuck on loading scr...

    My Nokia Lumia 800 ran out  of battery while I was at work (not the first time) I take it home and plug it in, after 20 mins of the red battery screen it vibrates and springs to life, but it never got past the white 'Three' welcome screen (one of three screens that flash up when the phone is first turned on, others are Nokia screen and Windows screen).
    It's been charging for over 10 hours and it's still stuck on that white screen. The phone feels cold (not stone cold, but not warm either) so clearly it's not charging. I've tried a different charger, different plug, and plugging it in to the computer. When I unplug it, it dies after 20-30 mins and I go through the whole process again the next time I charge it.
    When I plugged it into the computer it behaved very strangely. It rapidly connected/diconncted itself, not giving Windows time to recognoise the device was plugged in and install the driver software. Before evneutally diconnecting itself and going back to that white screen.
    What's wrong with it? It's not the first time it's totally ran out of battery (although I don't let it happen very often).
    The phone is only 4 months old!
    What do I do?
    Nokia Care on Twitter was useless, asked me to do soft resets (already tried, many times, the phone turns off briefly, vibrates, then back to that white screen).
    If I have to send it in for repiars how do I do that? I live in South West England, my nearest Nokia Care store is in central London, several hours away.
    Thanks for any help you can offer.
    The white screen it's stuck on looks just like this: http://www.techwatch.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Three-Logo-235x276.jpg

    You should contact the nokia care point and they will organise the device to be collected.

  • Nokia Lumia 800 won't boot after region+language c...

    I just got my Nokia Lumia 800 and attempted to switch region+language to English(US) from English(UK).  It said I had to restart the phone to make the change.
    The phone turned off and turned back on, but it is now stuck at the NOKIA logo and has been for the past 10 minutes.  I tried turning it off and back on, but it still did not boot.
    I'm totally stuck with a bricked phone here.  Any suggestions?  Keep it on and wait it out?
    Thanks,
    Ken

    @kanno41
    You could try a "soft reset" by keeping Volume Down and Power buttons down until the phone vibrates three times; the phone should successfully restart with the Nokia logo after a few seconds.

  • Data Recovery on Nokia Lumia 800

    I recently went on an incredibly moving trip to Poland and took many photos and videos. My Nokia Lumia 800 ran out of battery, so I charged it overnight. When I woke up to switch it on, the memory formatted, which meant I lost so many important photos and videos. I only pressed the on button so I am at a loss as to why this happened. I have arrived home and have researched the ways I could possibly recover these life-changing photos with recovery software (since I did not have access to the internet at the time, it did not sync with SkyDrive). Is there possibly a way I could reclaim these overwritten files? I have done the 'regedit' process, so my PC can recognise it as a device independent of Zune, though it only comes up as a 'Portable Device' in Computer, meaning the recovery software doesnt detect it as a memory store from which it can recover data (ie. Removable Storage Device) . Any thoughts as to how to fix that?
    Thank you for reading, and I hope to hear a reply as soon as possible.

    Unless you have made a backup of the photos or synced them to skydrive I am afraid there is no way to recover them.

  • Cold weather + Nokia Lumia 800 = Inactive touch sc...

    Is this normal for your touch screen to be inactive during cold weather on your nokia lumia 800? If so what are some remedies to get the screen to get the touch screen active. Maybe using a blow dryer to warm up your phone or using a phone sock case to reduce the cold temperatures in the morning. What are your thoughts on this topic?

    There have been similar low temperature issues reported using N9, which seems ironic for phone designed in Finland. Do also wonder whether state of charge of battery is implicated in such behaviour as really need to be fully charged before taking out in the cold.
    I remember on a cold morning I left it on the charger over night and the touch screen wasn't working.

  • Nokia Lumia 800 is off and continually vibrating.

    Hey guys,
    I was just using my nokia lumia 800 normally and then it suddenly shut off. I've tried everything to get it working, soft reset, hard reset, taking the sim out, letting the battery go flat then plugging it in, but nothing worked. This has happened once before but it turned back on after 5 mins. It has been 2 days now and it is stil continually vibrating. What should I do?

    Hi JulseyB, Welcome to the Nokia forum!
    It sounds like you have tried most things to get it back up and running again, I have a feeling it might be a hardware failure, I suggest that you take your device to your local Nokia Care point as soon as you can to get it looked at by a specialist. 
    I hope this has helped!

  • Nokia Lumia 800 2nd. device dies!!

    Hi!
    Today I'd like to let you know that this is the second time that my Nokia Lumia 800 dies.
    Second tieme? Yes, it is second time!!! Only to a Nokia it could happen!!!
    I'm really angry towards this formerly "prestigious" brand. They launch to market a Chinese product at an European price!!!!! That's it!!! A product that isn't able to be switched on longer than a week.
    Two months ago my Nokia Lumia 800 died by first time. El Corte Inglés Nokia SAT (Madrid, Spain) sent it to repair; and supposedly, according Nokia technician words, Nokia SAT changed everything except for external case. Even all data in device were lost, I received it as new.
    Let's say a pray for it, today Nokia brand passed away for me!!!!!

    Hi Ceroberts75!!
    Thanks for your replay, but it isn’t necessary you stand Nokia brand in this way. Always, in all human organizations there are lot people that suck up and scrounge around companies to beg for a fistful of scraps and they’re happy with them!!!!
    You, see? In the Spanish forum my post has been deleted! Is this freedom of speech? No, it’s censure!!!
    If you spent almost 500 euro for a device that supposedly is stand by one prestigious company as Nokia was; wouldn’t you expect that once after repairing device, this dvice shouldn’t have the same problem? So, I would!
    NOKIA isn’t the same as it was since they started to manufacturing in China.
    If you look at Nokia financial results, losses reached 150 M. € the first trimester 2013. Why? It’s clear!!
    1st Because their sales were much less than expected and their investments were much higher.
    2nd Because their products aren’t supported by customers as long ago due to the hip of problems that new OS causes.
    Finally, this rant is for advising those that they aren’t aware about this problem and this brand.

  • Nokia Lumia 800 - Software Update

    I have tried loading the Windows Phone software update on mu Nokia Lumia 800 and every single time I have done this through Zune software my phone runs through the majority of tasks it has to do and then locks up at task 9 out of 10 as it re-starts my phone. I had left this going over night but still it hangs on 9 out of 10 tasks completed.
    Has anyone else had this problem and did you overcome it?
    My current firmware version is 1750.0805.8773.12220
    My current OS version is 7.10.8773.98
    The latest versions are:-
    Firmware 1750.0823.885x.124x0
    OS Version 7.10.8862.144
    Very frustrated as I have to start my phone again and restore it back to previous version.

  • Nokia Lumia 800 key vibration

    I bought a new Nokia Lumia 800. I noticed that despite turning off vibration, the phone vibrates each time the back key (<-) is pressed. Is there any way to turn this off. i believe this could save a lot of battery.
    Also how do we completely close an application in Lumia 800? I opened a page in IE. pressed back key. Then pressed and held back key to find there is no active application or IE running. However, when i open IE next time, I see the previous page has been loaded and it has been active all this time which could have been eating in to my data usage as well as battery charge.
    Thanx in advance.

    Yep it is true for Psychomania said, however I've been using Nokia since 3310 and since then I've declared that Nokia is a "connecting people" phone. Because it is easy to use, it is easy to share (contacts, sounds, pictures, messages etc), it is easy to customize. Moreover it is not hard to change from an old Nokia phone to the new one.
    After Lumia comes, I believe this is the best of Nokia phone that the quality is almost equal with IOS. I do agree for following the trend of the consumer mostly (social, market, book etc) is a good thing to do. But please Nokia, do not change your ability, do not change your "connecting people" style. I'm feeling as a bird on cage with Lumia, could not change sms tone, when I was migrating contacs and I found my contacs get multiplied and I have to merge it or delete it, Could not change my phone name directly from my phone. I know IOS is using itunes for importing things inside it, yet It is not good enough if we remarks all of it. You have your own style, Nokia.

    However, after looking at price on second-hand market for a Lumia 800 here in Germany (40 €), you might be better-off with another phone. In Germany, MyDealz.de and Geizhals.at/de might be resources to start from.

  • Nokia Lumia 800 charging and photo messaging probl...

    I got my Nokia Lumia 800 in May and was great to start with but when I updated the phone to the most recent update  I started to get problems.
    My picture messaging wont work at all, when i recieve a picture message I get "get media content now" but when I try and get it, it doesnt work, I have taken my phone into the shop to see if I had the correct apn etc but they cant see any problems with it. When I took it back to where I got it from and they told me that they would have to send it away without giving me a replacement until I get it back, telling me I would need to buy a new one, I cant have this as I have a micro sim card which will only fit in certain phones. 
    I have also recently started to get a charging problem aswell, I have reset my phone but nope, and I have tried other chargers which dont help either, my friend used my charger to see if it would work in her phone and the charger seems to be working fine, again it seems to be a fault with the phone.
    I love my phone but I am not happy with the faults that seem to be happening now, as I need my phone to be in working order due to family illness. 
    Could anyone help me with this ? 

    Have you fully charged via Laptop ? If so let it run down 10% or so and connect to supplied charger and see if it will charge then, also if you have done a software update you could try reverting back to old software then re-installing latest again.

    If you have not setup your Facebook account in your phone, kindly set it up and check if you'll be able to see your FB friends under Messaging and then Online.

  • Nokia Lumia 800 - Micro Stuttering / Lag in OS and...

    Hi everyone,
    I just thought i'd bring an issue up that i've been experiencing recently.
    I have a Nokia Lumia 800 (locked to Telstra - Australia)
    I'm experiencing very minor, completely random slow downs or lag sometimes when just flicking through the phone OS and also at times when watching video (either recorded on the phones own camera or Youtube etc).
    The most repeatable way for me to demonstrate the problem is watching a video i have recorded using the phones inbuilt camera, when playing the video back (on the phone) the video randomly lags, usually for about the first 60 seconds and then plays smoothly. It is definately not a reception or buffering issue, as in most streaming cases, the phone is well buffered.
    I have also experienced slowdowns when typing an SMS, where the key presses are very slow to show up on the screen and also when launching even OS built in apps like the People Hub or Contacts.
    I'm running the latest firmware 12070 (in Australia) and have tried hard resetting my phone, disabling all background agents etc with no luck.
    I previously had a 1st gen HTC Mozart which experienced no slowdowns and played back all manner of video with no lag whatsoever.
    There has been some discussions on XDA here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26164497&posted=1#post26164497
    Has anyone else experienced any of these symptoms?

    I too have this sms lag on my lumia 800. i had this issue on both formwares : 12070 and 12072. I really fed up the no of bugs in this phone.
    please guys post the following bug as well. following bug is present in 5 of my frnd's lumia 800 as well. XDA please make sure this new issue reaches NOKIA. So that they can do something about.
    Even i have got this latest 12072 update but still dr is one more bug guess u have not noticed it. Can u please check and clarify with the following bug description.
    1." Connect you nokia handsfree or any headphones to your lumia 800 and make a call and notice that u cannot adjust the volume. Volume remains high (max) always even if you reduce the volume to zero."
    2."Connect your hands free or any head set to your lumia 800 play music and reduce the volume to 15 or less now make a call again you cannot adjust the volume of the call. now cut the call and now your music starts playing in max volume which you will not be able to reduce. Until you remove your hands free or headset and reinsert it.
