Praise for the Lumia 925!! survived a spin in the ...

I tried to find a way to send this to corporate but unfortunately there does not be a way to contact Nokia directly. If the moderaters here can pass this along I would be very grateful! I did post it on the Nokia US facebook page:
I just had to share my Nokia 925 survival story!! Monday May 21st I discovered that I had washed my son's phone. It had gone through both the detergent and liquid fabric softener cycles. I stuck in a bowl of rice for 2 days holding out little hope for it. Rotating it every few hours while awake I crossed my fingers and hoped for the best. Low and behold I plugged in in this afternoon and it works!! Thank you for making some of the most indestructible products on the market!!! Love my Windows Phone

Can you please help on this issue.

Hi Samba,
What're the versions of your Office Excel and SQL Server Analysis Services? It will be helpful if you can share the detail computer resource information to us while encountered this issue.
In addition, we don't know your cube structure and the underlying relationships. But you can take a look at the following articles to troubleshoot the performance issue:

No updates coming for my lumia 925

i have bought a new lumia 925 about a week ago. but still i am not getting any updates from nokia and microsoft for my apps and window. what should i do now????

Remove the Store app from your home screen and pin it again after restarting your phone. If you've a stable internet connection and if there's any update for the apps, you will start receiving application update notifications.
And for OS updates (Settings->phone update), if you do not receive update notifications for the OS, then there's no update for the OS yet.
The silence will fall

Lumia Denim performacnce is not good as Cyan. I have lumia 925 and it is heating more after upgrade.
What OS giant??
I reset the phone but still it is worst.
It heats like a hell.
Lumia is like wired phone. very poor battery performance.
So many Apps are not able to start.
I was happy with Cyan. Denim is not so great as expected.

Do you know something about a fix for that issue???
I believe that is the way it is supposed to behave with battery saver On, so nothing to fix.

Nokia's premium leather case for the Lumia 1020

Has anyone seen any additional information about what has been referred to as "Nokia’s premium leather case for the Lumia 1020" on some sites?
Nokia’s premium leather case for the Lumia 1020
This looks like the perfect case for the Lumia 1020 and is one of the few that offers protection for the camera lens.
Is it going to be sold by Nokia? And when is it coming out?

Actually, the page mentions that link as a source for a different case not pictured.
"...we did find another company, Noreve.com, who also have a leather case in the process of being made for the 1020."
So whatever case Noreve.com decides to make, it won't be the one pictured in the article.
And looking at the other cases that Noreve has designed, I don't think theirs will look anything like the Nokia-branded one that is pictured.
Any leads would be appreciated.

Will there be a firmware update for the lumia 920'...

Early reviews of the lumia 920 are all saying that the camera is not as Nokia said (the best camera on a smartphone at the moment). Photos taken in daylight are not that sharp compare to other devices. One of them even said that prototype tested a month before did not have such issue. Is that only a software problem? If yes, will there be an update? Thanks for the reply.

Some reviwers have rated the camera quite highly so it might be a case of user error on the reviewers part for marking it down.

Problem with Nokia Lumia 925

This is what i encountered with my nokia Lumia 925 after 3 days of usage, i am not sure anyone besides me, facing the same problem.
- Overheating, after taking few photos, the phone feel a sudden of heat near the camera.
- Freeze, the phone freeze sometimes, and auto turn off the wifi, when you open it, it says you need to restart the phone, before can turn on the wifi.
- Music + videos apps, when you swipe your music in the apps, the apps freezes, but music still playing. Frustrated when you trying to change tracks.
- Video, i transfer some of my video via windows 8 to the phone, some of it lagging while playing the video. i have try numerous video format, it is still the same. I think it is a software problem. It works fine on my old lumia.
- Auto reboot, my phone has been reboot for 2 times, one time is after a called,another one is after i finish using my wechat application.
Lastly, i love lumia 925, i think the design and the pictures capability are what i really in love with, but i hope someone from nokia could tell me how to solve the above problems.

Hi, Di_vico. Does this mean you are not using the case anymore? Do you have a Lumia 925 as well?
As the concern is present with a case on, try doing the below steps. Let's check if these will correct it.
1. Press and hold the volume down and the power buttons at the same time until you feel a vibration (about 10-15 seconds). Your phone will restart automatically.
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-ph/how-to/wp8/phones-and-hardware/restart-my-phone
2. Check that your device is running the latest software version. Go to Settings > phone update.
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-ph/how-to/wp8/basics/how-do-i-update-my-phone-software
Make sure that all the system apps are updated. You can go to Settings > applications > store > check for updates. You can also scan the QR codes from the below link:

Lumia 925 cc3065 not available in saudi arabia

i recently got the lumia 925 and its ana amzing phone. However i have not been able to find any covers or cases for it in ksa. Even the official cc3065 is not available.
Will it be available soon or are there any alternatives?

hi mate, you can try Amazon or eBay, there are plenty available on thsoe sites.

Lumia 925 blurry text while scrolling

Noticed that my lumia 925 has a blurry text while scrolling, specially when scrolling white text over black background or black text over white background... also noticed some blurry when scrolling tiles on the home screen, this blurry occurred around the black horizontal lines separating the tiles.... compared the scrolling with the 920 and there is a huge difference...
I read that some of the galaxy S4 units has this problem and that this problem related to Samsung AMOLED screens, and you know the lumia 925 has a Samsung AMOLED screen.
Any one has these issues? let me know in comments please..

I have the same issue with L1020.
I am extremely annoyed and disappointed at Nokia for messing up the PERFECT display of L920.
After using L920 for months and laughing at lower quality displays of other phones, this L1020 display feels like those typical phone displays.
Are nokia engineers so incompetent or everyone of them have vision issues that you ship a phone with such s**t quality?

Nokia Lumia 925 No Display After Switch On

When I switch my Nokia Lumia 925 off and then turn it back on again I get no display.
I know its on because I can press the on/off/ button and the soft keys will vibrate when touched.
I can even take a picture using the camera key, confirmed with a flash but I have no display whatsoever.
Anyone else experienced this issue? Soft reset seems to the the trick but I get the same issue everytime I turn my phone off and turn it back on again.
I love the phone to pieces but this issues are starting to dwell on me and whether I made the right choice.
My OS info if it helps is:
OS: 8.0.10328.78
Firmware: 3047.0000.1326.2005
Hardware 1.0.0.0
Chip SOC version 8960

In the light of this, my advice is to take it back to where you bought it from. There's clearly something wrong with your unit.
The Lumia 925 is a great phone. Don't let this bad experience change your opinion of the model. You may have had bad luck with yours, but it doesn't mean that *every* Lumis 925 suffers from the same fault!
Have it looked at by your nearest Nokia care point or, if you got it from an operator, contact them instead for the procedure to follow. They might even be able to give you further advice and things to try that could fix it for you without having to send it off.

No Denim update Lumia 925

Hello,
At our workplace we introduced the Lumia 925 to be our new basic work phone.
I work at the servicedesk and handout all the lumia phone.
Some of our people have experienced Exchange mail problems (slow mail delivery) and freezing phones.
Now I have looked into the phone version.
For somereason the phones are still on the Cyan update. (see screenshot.)
But it seems to have the firmware version of a Denim software version.
I have alrdy contacted our Telecom Provider (Vodafone NL) and they are also looking into the issue.
It seems the phones are not branded, so it seems teh telecom provider can do anything with this issue.
Can anyone tell my why our lumia phones still show Cyan and not Demin.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is a known issue with the Extras+Info app which was resolved by a recent update. Check for updates for it from settings >applications > store > check for updates. Alternatively you can also use a free app like Lumia System Updater to do that.

Lumia 925 screen freeze.

Hi everyone.
I have a returning problem with my Lumia 925 approx once a week since it was new. This happens on random, no particular tasks seems to set this off. Sometimes it is enough to press the volum down and the screenlock button until it restarts, but at other times it is necessary to have the charger connected, in order to make the screen respond after a restart.
Well...it does start...but it is rather annouing...I had the problem some few times with my previous Lumia 920 as well. And it makes me rather hesitant to buy a n Nokia the next time....
So...any suggestions as to why this is happening? Probably the OS, but not necessarily. B.t.w. I have the newest updates for my phone...always :-)
Thx for any suggestions how to avoid this in the future...
Best regards.

Hi jivolse,
Welcome to the forum!
Did something happen to your phone before the issue starts to come up? Did you recently install or download any apps prior to this issue? When you you have the newest updates, does it also include the system apps shown at this link: Nokia Windows Phone 8 App Updates
Try also to do the tips offered at this link and see if the phone's performance will improve. This is for screen responsiveness, which is almost the same with your phone's issues: Troubleshooter for Nokia Lumia 925
Let us know how it will go.
