Nokia lumia 820 video recording crashes

Hi. I just bought a lumia 820 and tried to videotape. But as soon as i press the camera button the camera crashes at goes straight to start screen. Does anyone has/had the same problem. Please let me know... How can i fix it??

Hi Anestis,
Do you have a memory card on your phone? Did you try to remove it and then try to access your camera again? If yes and the issue remains, you can reset the camera. You can do that by going to Settings and then swipe left to applications > photos + camera (pictures+camera), scroll down to the bottom and reset camera.
If it does not help as well, the next option is to reset your phone by pressing and holding the Power and Volume down keys simultaneously until you feel the phone vibrate. After this operation, you may need to set the date and time on the phone. Note that this does not remove any settings or your personal content.
Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Lumia 820 video recording fail

l've checked everywhere for forums discussing this absolutly appauling oversight of the 820. I've tested 3 phones and they all have the same problem, which l'm starting to feel is a fault in all of them. Problem is this, the video recording will not save files longer then 10 minutes.
Yep.
Without a warning it will just decide not to save your video, even on the lowest settings, it will just randomly crash and you are left with nothing to show for it. What nokia? what is this oversight? you expect to catch up to samsung and apple when you can't even make a phone record more then 10 minutes?
So to anyone wanting a smartphone that can record something more then a gif, look elsewhere.

hi mate,
no such problems with my 920. have you checked that you have the latest Portico update for Windows Phone 8 downloaded and installed already? you can check under Settings > Phone Update. meanwhile, also check that you are fully up to date with all the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store.
if the above fails, try performing a soft reset (pressing the volume down and power buttons together until the phone vibrates). i would also check that if you are saving recorded videos onto a microSD card, that the card is in good working order with other devices etc.

Nokia Lumia 1520 video recording on Microsd card i...

First off, I have a Nokia Lumia 1520 for about one month now. I love the screen size and everything. My picture/video recording to phone memory works fine. I have recently purchased a Class 10 Sandisk Pixtor 64GB microsd card from Best buy for video/pictures storage due to this device having only 16GB of memory.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/sandisk-pixtor-64gb-microsdhc-class-10-memory-card/1299201.p?id=12190475...
Picture taking is fine writing to this card. However, I noticed that on all video recording mode (720p to 1080p), the video would sometimes skip and lose a few frames here and there. For example, when i try to record a video of a kid running, the video playback will show the kid run across but would jerk or freeze a bit during his run (almost like the phone is too busy doing other tasks during recording). Playing the same videos on a computer show the same result which means the video taken were bad to begin with. My temporary fix is to switch video/picture recording to the phone storage itself but that defeats buying the sd card in the first place.
Anybody else having this issue? I couldn't find another microsd card to test but i wonder if the phone itself is having a performance issue with sd cards in general. Should i engage with tech support from Nokia?

It is quite well known that Class10 card are overkill on a mobile phone and in many cases have been proven to actually have worse performance when compared to even Class4 cards.
Class10 cards really only make sense in (high end) DSLR ca,eras where itis a requirement the shots can be written to the card fast. In practical use the class only indicates the card cab sustain a transferrate of X MB/s and with that in mind a Class4 card even will be plenty fast for your mobiel phone.
Due to the fact a Class10 card is basically overspec for the hardware it may even cause timing issues.

Nokia Lumia 1520 Video recording/playback issues.

I seem to have issues with video recording. Video seems to have some pause "still" effects when taking video and playback in phone shows those stops very clearly as it freezes for while and jumps many seconds forward.
When I play same file in PC with video player the video plays better but still I can manage to see some small Glitch in video like my phone did stop recoding for some frames. I have been using SD card and phone memory and both have same problem.

No solution so far and it is my wife phone so haven't have much reason to play with it find solution. She only takes photos anyway.
This current phone has already broke down 2 sim cards also or wireless charging did brake those not sure after stop using wireless charging 3rd sim card have been fine.
someday when have I feeling to take this phone to warranty service I will try wireless charging again.

Nokia lumia 720 video recording

720P video is not recorded properly in my lumia 720, sometime video stucks in between while keep playing the video sound only. Please check

hi mate, are you saving your videos to memory card? try saving it to the phone memory to isolate your problem. if it saves fine to the phone, then it may be a problem with your memory card. also ensure that you are up to date with the latest firmware for your device, and that you are up to date with the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store. and also try performing a soft reset. else you need to know that anything above a Class 4 memory card is overkill and may cause problems for your device, and also check also that your memory card is of a reputable brand such as Kingston or SanDisk.

How to set storage location in Nokia lumia 820 for...

Hi,
I would like to know if and how to define the storage location in my Nokia lumia 820.
I have recently purchased a micro SD card by Kingston and would like to download and install apps, like games who require more storage then my Nokia 820 supports(8GB).
I saw that the only available option set is to choose the the storage for music + videos and pictures from settings/phone storage but no option set could be found for the apps or others.
Please help me with some guidelines or with a proper workaround as I tried unsuccessfully to find the understanding for this in various resources.
Thank you for considering my request.

You can't install applications, Games on the SD Card. Only other thing that you may save on the SD Card is the Maps ..but you need THIS application. Need to log-in using the same credentials that you use on this forum to download it ...

Lock applications for nokia lumia 820

I would like to know if there any applications to lock my messages and videos. Also to block any particular contact.
I have searched in the nokia store already but no such apps.
Kindly let me know that if we have such apps for the nokia lumia 820?

What you see in the Store is what you get unfortunately. there may be apps in the future, but that would depend on developers actually making the app or not.

Can't Stream on my Nokia Lumia 820

I cannot Stream live online with my Nokia lumia 820. I tried to download and Install adobe flash Player but the phone Is not supporting it. Can anybody tell me how to go about it. I need to Watch my prophet online
Moderator's note: We amended the title of this post as we moved it to the appropriate board.

Flash player is not available for WindowsPhone or any mobile OS for that matter as Adobe has stopped supporting, having said that I have no issues playing videos online, when I hit the video icon and phone opens it in the in-built player and plays it fine. Try it.

My problems with Nokia Lumia 820

I was a big fan of Nokia until two months back when I purchased Nokia Lumia 820. It's been two months and I'm having tough time with the handset.
First it was the heat issue. I know smartphones are tend to get heated up due to processors. But my mobile gets heated up in less than 5 minutes when I play games like real football, wordament and even simple games. I thought I got a bad device out of the box. When I say heated up it's not warm, its hot and uncomfortable hotness. I can't hold my device until the heat subsides. I visited the Nokia care for raising the heat issue but they said they can't do much and updated my mobile to the latest firmware (1308) and asked me to check after the update and the heat issue is still the same. Just when I thought things can't get any worse it did. My mobile has visited Nokia repair factory already twice in less than two months of purchase. The first major problem occurred three weeks back when the display would be switching on and off randomly and finally the mobile got bricked. The screen went blank completely and the device was unresponsive. Along with that complaint I've again raised a complaint about the device getting heated up uncomfortably. 14 days after I submitted my device to Nokia care I got my device back only to find that the screen isn't responsive to touch in the middle within a week's time. The upper part and the lower parts are responsive, it's the middle strip that's not responding to touch.
I've again given my mobile to Nokia care and they have sent it to the repair unit. In two months of my purchase the mobile has spent more than 4 weeks at Nokia repair outlet. It is still undergoing repair in the Nokia repair factory. I had least expected this from Nokia.
Some of my friends who have windows 8 phones from Nokia haven't experienced any problems so far, not even heating problem. It's safe to say that the problem is only with my device.
It's two months old and I've got it from the Nokia priority dealer.
What'd you call a device which spends more than 40% of the time in the repair factory in two months of the purchase. Even the 3 months EMI's haven't been payed fully.
I've encountered lots of inconvenience after purchasing the device.

Nokia lumia 820 music

Hello, I have just bought my Nokia Lumia 820 and updated it to Amber but I can't see the Nokia Music. All I have been using is the Xbox Music. Kindly assist, its really frustrating.

Hi taitangetich,
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
Nokia Music can be downloaded through the 'Store'. You may go to the 'Nokia Collections' and look for the said app. You may also download the Nokia Music app here: http://www.nokia.com/global/featured-apps/. Just go to the Bing Search on your phone > tap on the scanner (eye icon) > tap on the QR code on your computer.
Let us know the outcome.

My screen got cracked of Nokia Lumia 820

I have a Nokia Lumia 820 and its front glass got cracked. My display is alright but my touch is not working on the crack but elsewhere on the screen touch is working fine can someone tell me the problem and its cost. I am living in India.

You will need to contact Nokia Care in your area, they will provide a quote for replacing the screen. It's impossible to say what it will cost because each authorised repairer will provide a quote that includes both the components needed and their labour cost for carrying out the work, so just see the Microsoft web site for your country and you'll find information on how to get the phone fixed in the support pages.

Nokia Lumia 820 Amber Update

My 820 was updated but I had to do a factory reset how can I get the update back? The update does not appear in Phone Updates.

I found the answer myself, all we have to do here is download the App Lumia System Updater that fixed all my problems once I updated my Apps. Been looking for answer for Hours. Now things like Touch Double Tap Wake Up are working and Block Numbers and SMS on the Nokia Lumia 820 I would say it would work on all LUMIAs...

Nokia Lumia 820 issues after Lumia Black update...

Before updating to the Lumia Black update:
1. Was able to connect the Nokia Lumia 820 to my home PC using Windows 8.1 and it was able to see the device and files on it as well as sync music from Windows Media Player to the device.
2. Was able to connect to the Nokia Lumia 820 from one of my Office PCs using Windows 8.0 and was able to see the device and files on it.
As well as to manually install Windows Phone 8 applications or install the Windows Phone 8 applications via Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate from either PC.
After the Lumia Black update, Neither PC can see files on the Nokia Lumia 820 nor can any application send files to the Phone's Memory Card or Second Memory Card. (SD Class 10)
Very frustrated with the Lumia Black update. Lumia Amber worked just fine.
I haven't changed anything as far as I know on my Nokia Lumia 820 device to cause said issues nor have I abused the device in any way.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Thank you,
BillNew
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Simply wanted to add 3 new audio tracks to the Music files via Windows Media Player but cannot even connect the device like it did less than 45 days ago when everything was working properly.
All my music files are on the SD Card because the file space needed is more than the 7.3 GB on the base memory for the unit. (Something like 8.1+ GB at the present time of 29.8 GB... which is the formatted size of the 32 GB SD Class 10 card.)
When the Nokia Lumia 820 is connected to my home Windows 8.1 computer, Windows knows about it but cannot finish the handshake to see the device and the 2 memory areas on the device.
Have to determine which programs that I have installed after the initialization that I want to restore.
The problem at the moment is that turning off the unit loses ALL Music Album Data but the songs are still there. This seems to have been caused by Lumia Black Update but not sure if that is true or not.
Have a lot of stuff to backup before resetting the device. Perhaps could upload everything to SkyDrive / OneDrive then restore the data after a full reset of the device.
I have all my cell phone contact data backed up but would like to backup all text messages too.
I have 2 custom applications that I have developed but are not yet setup using the Windows Phone 8 Development License as released products... that will be done soon.
Cannot backup the latest pictures on the phone... not many since the last backup but there are pictures that are not restorable that I would like to keep.
Would rather not have to do a complete reset but may have no choice.
Thanks,
BillNew
