Phone gone mad

I've bought a Lumia 1020 today. When I turned it on at the first time it froze twice before I could go through the initial steps. It has gone mad, the screen is unresponsive, it starts apps like mad, jumps around, I can't turn it off because it starts again immediately. The backside is very hot. Unusuable. Ideas?

Soft reset - hold Power and Volume Down buttoms pressed until phone vibrates and restarts, usually 10-15 seconds.

  • My iPhone gone mad can't turn off voice control which turned on by itself now can't access phone as can't get past my screen lock! Also it keeps calling random people in my contacts help please

    iPhone 4 gone mad voice control taken over phone, can't get past my screen lock it won't  respond at all, keeps dialling random people won't do anything at all!!! Even when go on voice control screen and hold power off and home screen down nothing No response. Help please? My mother very sick in hospital and need my mobile!!

    Have you tried to power off and on?  If that doesn't work and the reset didn't work, have you tried connecting to iTunes to see if it is recognized?
    If none of this works you probably need to visit an Apple genius bar and have it checked out by the techs.

    I have not installed such a program.  I am one of those few N900 users whom actually know why the phone rotational settings (default) are the way it is.....IT IS A TABLET.  So it is meant for dual hand operation with the exception of number dialing to place calls .  So I never was one of those to complain or seek out apps which will make all features operational in potrait mode.

  • Rotation gone mad...

    Hello,
    I installed "Plastic Theme" and "Theme Customizer" which are great programs.  After various modifications of testing new things out, my phone has gone mad with me, I think.  How in the world can I turn off the auto-rotation?  It is great when the phone rotates during calls but not rotating on every twist and turn of the phone (with every applications as well as with an idle desktop).
    I tried to look at the settings for both programs but I cannot see where I can disable this.  I am not sure which theme is causing this under the "Plastic Theme" program.  I will do an uninstall here to restore everytihng to normal and then redownload the programs.  What could I have done wrong here??

  • My iphone's(4s) battery's gone mad!!!

    my iphone's battery has gone mad!!!It shuts down without any notice,even though the battery life seems full or around 80%.has anyone experienced anything like that?

    Same as you would do with any battery issue before you updated:  restore the phone as NEW, not using backup at all.

  • Blackberry Pearl- Why it's the worst phone ever made

    Here's why I think the Blackberry Pearl is the worst phone ever made.
    1. I can't get photo's off of it. My G1 takes a few seconds. I've worked with this Pear for hours upon hours cannot get my photo's off of it. The Desktop manager really bites too no help there. I really dislike this phone. The software just as bad. I guess they were on the move when Desktop manager was getting written.
    2. The phone on occasions would lock on letters instead of numbers. There wasn't an intuitive way to get it unlocked. I found it more intuitive to get a my return from the IRS than it was to get the phone back to dialing numbers.
    I'm having my kids dress up as a Blackberry Pearl for Halloween. I'm going to make a Halloween Movie Freddy Kruger attacks people with Blackberry Pearl the topper scene features unsuspecting Pearl user getting tied up and has them attempt to copy their photos off to a PC and the video gets put on Youtube for Christmas. 
    Very unsatisfied with your product.
    Don Quixote 

    I want to join the fun here and list all the different reasons why I'm very unsatisfied with this phone.
    The actual phone part of this phone is pretty slow.  It accepts a phone number almost 3 times slower than I can type it in.  Even typing a name on their handy search bar takes forever to get a result.  If I type to fast, it just ignores a couple of my numbers so I have to delete and retype, at the same super slow pace.  I'm guessing that it searches all sorts of contact and history lists to give me cool suggestions, and that's what makes it so slow.  Either way, it irritates me to no end that the basic reason I have this thing is slow as dirt.
    All 3rd Party and Blackberry apps require the Blackberry data service.  Even though there's WIFI on this phone, you simply can't connect to anything except the Browser (and even the Browser requires some setting changes to bypass the upsell screen).  This phone CAN do 3rd party services and other applications without the Blackberry data service, but they just don't allow you to.
    Sometimes my phone just turns off.  I don't normally mind the 3 minute boot up process, but when I'm in the middle of something and my phone turns off for no reason, it just compounds my frustration.
    The keyboard freezes up all the time.  After a good 1-5 minute "please wait clock", I finally get a message saying there was an error and my input application had to be reset.  Sometimes it doesn't quite reset all the way and I have to pull the battery and again wait for the long boot up process.
    Its a little unreliable.  Besides the phone turning off at random and the keyboard freezing, I still have problems other problems.  My bluetooth turns off and sometimes doesn't come back.  Once I had to get a new phone sent to me in order to correct that problem.  Pressing buttons doesn't always get a response, especially the green "call" button.  If the phone is bogged down, it just ignored commands, which is pretty frustrating especially if you press a button and accidently double enter a command that is both the "on" and "off" options.  Also, sometimes the screen fades out (like its suppose to) but doesn't come back when you press keys.  Or the external notifications just don't turn on.  It somestimes just doesn't read my memory card.  The zoom feature on my camera also got stuck.
    Other small gripes involve having no caps lock, the SureType never learning from my typing ("Hey" always goes out as "Get"), its overall slowness, the looseness of the back casing, the low quality camera, and so much more.
    I don't suggest this phone to anyone.

  • How come the swedish word "pappaledig" (paternity leave) doesn´t exist in my iPhone 4S swedish dictionary but "mammaledig" does?This phone was made in 2011!

    How come the swedish word "pappaledig" (paternity leave) doesn´t exist in my iPhone 4S swedish dictionary but "mammaledig" does?This phone was made in 2011!

    I've fixed my own problem.
    In the end, the issue was with iMessage on the other phone, not mine.
    While I had it connected to iTunes (the other phone, not mine), I could see that iTunes thought it was the temporary number (07429...). I turned iMessage off and back on again and the phone number in iTunes changed to the old (i.e correct) number (07903...).
    Subsequently, texts from my phone to the other phone showed up as blue-bubbled iMessages.
    Hope this helps someone!
    Thanks for reading, if you did.

  • FCP5  has GONE MAD, it WONT QUIT CRASHING.

    FCP5 GONE MAD, WONT QUIT CRASHING.
    The problem started earlier with a simple "Preview Disable" problem. While trying to fix this a new problem arouse, FCP5 has crashed at every single attempt to do anything with it... Here is a thread that will give you some background information leading to this problem. Jeff Hubbach, "PREVIEW DISABLE; [VTR OK]; read TimeCode and control camera" #6, 12:30pm Oct 17, 2005 CDT
    I have run Disk Utility, trashed FCP5 preferences and restarted the computer and I had to force quit the program every time I have opened it today.
    What do you? please help

    Hello Patric,
    The sofware "crash" meaning it locks up (So far what is does is that it shows the loading icon and thats it) I wait just a few minutes, but when I press the Cmd + Option + Esc to force quit, FCP5 reads " Final Cut Pro Is Not Responding" everything on red.
    The other things is that even after force quiting, on the dock it still indicates that is open, and when I press the Cmd + tab to navigate through the programs, it still shows FCP as if it was open.
    I don't have any network drive mounted. I am using one drive the same that is running the the OS and others...

  • Is my phone gone now from me forever???

    So my phone was stolen and I have tried to track it with the Find my iPhone app, it was offline... then I realized, maybe the thief went to control center and turned on the airplane mode! What if the thief did turn it on? Is my phone gone now?

    I had the same thing happen to me recently. I went to Best Buy and did the Early Edge option to get an LG G3. Best Buy tells me I have to send my iPhone 5S to Verizon within 14 days to not get hit with a fee. I send in my iPhone after two days.
    Fast forward a week and I decided I didn't want to have the extra monthly cost added to my bill. I call Verizon before I return anything, and they said "Oh when you return it you will go back to your normal 2 year contract and once we get the phone back you can go to a Verizon store and pick up a refurbished iPhone 5S". I return the phone to Best Buy and was fortunate enough to have an older work phone lying around to use while I go and pick up a replacement device.
    NO SUCH LUCK. Verizon said that in the Edge agreement once I send the phone away they don't have to give you anything back even if you cancel it. How this is not considered robbery is beyond me. Also, how any lawyer or judge would agree that an agreement like that is legal is also beyond me. So Verizon pretty much took $400 from me.
    The customer service rep actually said I could either buy a phone off eBay or re-join the Edge program. I respectfully told them I wasn't going to give Verizon any more of my money considering they just took $400 from me. It's sad that you get told one thing by Support, and then they screw you the next minute. Definitely canceling my service when I can and not recommending Verizon to anyone since they won't do the right thing.
