Software issues with lumia 1520 since wp8.1 update

Hello,
I have Lumia 1520 which I bought in may 2014. Last month I have updated to wp8.1. Initially it was doing fine but since last 10-15 days I have been facing a series of issues with my mobile. I suspect 8.1 update to be the reason as I never faced a glitch
in my 3months of heavy usage on wp8.
below are the problems I have faced so far,
1) screen blacked out suddenly. No response whatsoever. It was working, I can receive calls and notifications but display does not work. Phone was continuously heating mean while. I visited the nearest,care center even they were clueless. Only thing they
did was to hardreset my phone.
2) volume automatically becomes 0. I try to change it someone value but the bar goes back to 0. Its like the volume is playing with me.annoying it was.
3) the touch does not work sometimes. Its sporadic lock and unlock,it works fine.
4) few minor issues.
these issues really annoy me. These might be some minor bug fixes please take these up and resolve. I have gone through many forums and writing this. So
many users facing similar issues. Thanks.

I have requested our Windows Phone Device Update support team to look into this.

  • Issues with multiple things since Mavericks update

    I installed the Mavericks update and since, I have been having multiple problems with different things on my MacBook Pro 13"
    1. Printer issues: I have an HP officejet 6500 wireless printer (Officejet 6500 E709n Series), and now it's having major issues with printing, yet was working perfect prior to update. It will either cut out pages when printing PDF documents, or printing so slow that it has to take a break in between printing each document (an issue that all never occurred until update), to print documents back to back, it will stop after one document as though I have no other documents in queue to print, and pauses for an extremely long time (nearly a full minute, no exaggeration here, literally almost a full 60 seconds), something it's never done before this update. My Apps update even did an update to the HP software that is inside the Mac already to use printing (in other words, the mac doesn't need to have the HP software manually installed for it to work, it automatically sees the printer because it is connected to my wireless network just as my Macbook Pro which is also connected wirelessly to my network).
    2. Internet issues: am now unable to click on certain links in safari that I was able to use prior to the update, yet they will open fine inside of firefox with no issues, yet I cannot always switch between two different browsers to perform task online (literally have to start all over inside firefox while in the middle of something in safari). Also lots of websites no longer work correctly and I have to constantly clear history and cookies to attempt to use certain sites, at times it will help, other times it wont work period, yet the same exact site will work perfect in firefox (which I do not use, only on my system for use on certain sites for school because in safari prior to the update, I would have issues with only the class site and some links not working at all, no spinning wheel, no errors, just nothing, no response of any kind, basically worse than what it was before the update). Another issue, hit Ctrl+a to select inside Safari and it highlights, but then when you click out of the highlight, it comes back on it's own several times without you hitting anything, just click inside the screen on a blank space (no links, etc) with touchpad.
    3. System issues:  My system is way slower than what it was prior to the update, click on things and it wont respond at all, then minutes later will eventually respond or pops up the spinning color wheel, which it either never responds or takes an extremely long time to respond. And no matter how much I restart, it doesn't help anything. Even just to sit doing nothing, no clicking or usage on the system, and the color wheel pops up.
    4. Mail issues: Mail is now popping up completely blank messages that I have sent out, the person receives it with no issues, yet I cannot look at the message I sent neither in the inbox or the sent items when I need to look at them again, an issue not present prior to update. Also I an now having issues when receiving mail, sometimes it will check for mail and sometimes I have to manually click to make it check the server for mail, an issue not present prior to update as well.
    As of now, since I have had the chance to used the system since the update, these are the issues I have had, yet haven't had the chance to check other things, so there may be other issues that are occurring that I'm not aware of at the moment. I knew it would be a mistake to do this "free" update and did so anyway and now having one issue after the next with each application I open to use.
    Mac general info:
    Mac is one year old, purchased brand new, no shareware programs of any kind installed.
    Use for school and basic web surfing use.
    Do not install any programs onto system that I'm unsure are safe (basically programs for/from school/school websites only, or from the Mac Apps store only), not even programs like Skype, nor any windows based programs of any kind.
    Lots of free memory avail because I save everything onto external hard drives (purchased brand new as well, only 4months old) in case system crash occurs, only things on the system is Itunes music or pics from photo stream that sync to the system when Iphone connected.
    Mac system info:
    - Processor  2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
    - Memory  4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    - Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    - Software  OS X 10.9

    - Total Number of Cores:          2

    For those needing help fixing their system and putting it back to Lion or Mountain Lion, this is what I have done to eliminate all my issues in about an hour (depending on your internet connection).
    Amazing thing, I just restored my computer back to Mountain Lion, and she's working perfect again, as I knew she would. E-mail popping into mailbox instantly as it should and did before the update, printer working fast as it was before update, no more freezing or glitches of any kind thankfully and finally. Here is the link that is through the Apple site to direct you on how to put your system back and get rid of Maverick's, that is assuming that is what you would like to do and also includes link for those wanting to try fixing the issue if that is your preference (most of this info is for those with mountain lion and some with the previousverisoin of OS X lion).
    If you want to keep Maverick's here is a good post on the apple discussion board to help you out:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6161
    If you just want to totally get rid of it and put back what you had before, this is the short version of how to do so:
    https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3353
    NOTE: This particular link has a lot of info on what to do for different situations, it is a bit lengthy, yet still very helpful.
    OS X Mountain Lion: Reinstall OS X (direct from Apple support site, not someone else):

    OS X: About OS X Recovery (also from apple support directly and includes some instructions just the same as previous links above):
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
    Just in case you aren't sure what it will all look like as you are doing things, this is a link to show you a few pics of what you will see  as you as you are going through the process, it can be helpful for those who aren't sure what they are doing or how to do things at all:

    This is a way to download the Mountain Lion disk info from the server

    I hope this helps someone, it was amazing for me and my system is working perfect again like it was, battery life is way better went from like 3 hours to like 5 (not on full charge by the way, after it sat for a while doing the online update which took a while so that's saying something alone, huge improvement). I plan to wait a while before attempting to reinstall Maverick's, long enough for them to fix the bugs.

  • HT5642 WiFi speed issues with iPhone 4S since the update

    Since the update the WiFi on the iPhone is terrible. I run a 50mb speed and barley get 2mb. My iPad is getting 39mb speed. Is there a problem with this update for the iPhone that affects WiFi speed?

    I am having the same issue since updating to iOS 6.  It has been noticeable on my iPhone 4S and a little less noticeable on my iPad 3 but I think it is happening on the iPad too.  Very annoying problem.  One way to get it to work better is to re-boot your phone.  It will work for awhile then and then eventually not be working anymore and you will need to re-boot again.
    Just to be clear with everyone - the iPhone looks like it is connected to the wireless, it gets an IP address but can't transmit any data.  Device:  iPhone 4S, OS:  iOS6

  • Anyone else having issues with location services since the 7.1 update? Ever since I updated i've been seeing the location services on my status bar at all times.

    Anyone else having issues with location services since the 7.1 update? Ever since I updated i’ve been seeing the location services icon on my status bar at all times. I noticed that google was the app that was using it a lot, but after I turned the feature off for google my phone started using the “traffic”, “frequent locations” and “cell network search”. When I turn the feature off for all of those things it’s no longer a problem. So just wondering if anyone else is having this issue or if anyone has a solution?

    The "solution" is probably to increase your knowledge.  You've done good things.  Perhaps this article will educate you a bit more about location services.
    Basically, they can be very useful, but can cause a lot of iPhone use.  A major example is "Remind me to ... when I leave home."

  • Sync issue - I have an iPhone 5 running latest software 7.1.1. Since the update I noticed that my photos weren't syncing in My Photo Stream album on my pc.

    I have an iPhone 5 running latest software 7.1.1. Since the update I noticed that my photos weren't syncing in My Photo Stream album on my pc. The photos taken do show up in My Photo Stream folder on my iphone and ipad. I have googled and noticed that this is quite a widespread problem.
    I must stress that I have never had a problem with photos from my iPhone not syncing with my pc before. This is the first time I have encountered this problem, so this has nothing to do with my Wi-Fi or my pc because nothing has changed in that respect. My pc's operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
    6 days ago I took steps to try and kick start syncing again by uninstalling the iCloud panel on my pc.
    1. Uninstalled the iCloud panel.
    2. I saved all the photos that were in my My Photo Stream on my pc to another folder.
    3. Deleted the My Photo Stream folder.
    4. Rebooted.
    5. Downloaded  iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows from support Apple site and installed on my pc.
    6. Logged in to iCloud, set up syncing.
    7. Rebooted.
    I noticed that there is now a folder on my pc called iCloud Photos with subfolders which one is My Photo Stream as well as my share iPhone folders.
    The photos are still not syncing.
    I have only 34 photos in My Photo Stream on my pc.
    I have deliberately taken random photos over the last few days since the actions of uninstalling and re installing the iCloud panel.
    Out of a dozen which I took yesterday, only one has showed up in My Photo Stream on my pc. Only 6 photos out of  fifty photos which I have taken since uninstalling/reinstalling the iCloud panel have appeared in My Photo Stream on my pc.
    My iPhone shows that I have 980 photos in My Photo Stream so it shows that something is not quite right with syncing to the pc.
    Hopefully someone has an answer or a fix?
    Thanks for reading.

    Hi Amish,
    I should have mentioned that I have signed out of the iCloud Control Panel several times and no syncing occurs.
    Thanks for your response anyway. I appreciate your feedback.

  • My iPhone 4s will not charge in car or truck. It would appear after research that this is a software issue with ios5. Will there ever be a patch to correct this infuriating problem?!!!

    Mine charges just fine, as does everyone's iPhone 4S that I know. Apple even sells a number of car chargers that are certified to work:

    Perhaps there is a problem with your charger or the outlet you're using in your car/truck.

  • I've been using LR with my Nikon D3200 for a year or so. Shooting in RAW/NEF no issues with import etc until I updated LR and now I can't get LR to allow me to select when I try to import. It does show the images but they're grayed out and not able to be

    I've been using LR with my Nikon D3200 for a year or so. Shooting in RAW/NEF no issues with import etc until I updated LR and now I can't get LR to allow me to select when I try to import. It does show the images but they're grayed out and not able to be selected. Any thoughts? TIA

    Greyed imaged in the Import dialog box mean you have already imported the photos into Lightroom, so there is no need and no benefit to importing them a second time.
    Just go to the Library module, search for the desired photos, and resume working on these photos.

  • Has anyone else been having trouble with safari ever since the update? I have restarted several times,mans it still doesn't work.

    Has anyone else been having trouble with safari ever since the update? I have restarted several times, it still doesn't work.

    Greetings Blueleoapple,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing an error with Safari. You may want to consider resetting your device, which is different from restarting. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
    Drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

    When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

  • Am I the only one having problems with ringer volume since the update?

    Am I the only one having problems with ringer volume since the update?? I'm hard of hearing and before updating to IOS7 I could hear my alarm and ringer just fine. Volume is turned up all the way and I've chosen the loudest sounds I could and still having a difficult time hearing.

    Annie Hall is available on DVD only.
    It is not available for streaming and I believe movies available for streaming are the only movies available with the Netflix app on an iOS device.

  • Wifi issues with iPad mini since iOS 8 update

    I Have a First Gen iPad Mini now running on iOS 8.1 . Since the original update of IOS8 . I have had issues with Wifi it connects disconnects itself always looking for a signal.. Nerve had this issue before update of the new IOS 8. It's extremming slow and the apps and Safari keep crashing.. It becomes unresponsive unable to click on website . It also freezes .. I've have numberous  times  done a complete factory reset . Still having issues. I have reset my router and I don't have any issues with any wifi at the house. I do have a iPhone 5 that had the exact issue as my IPad mini but it was replaced under warranty via Best Buy. When I reciecevd my iPhone it was still operating on IOS 7 . The gentlemen at Geek Sqd told me to NOT to upgrade the software till Apple gets a fix.. They had a lot of people in with the same problem and there devices needed to be replaced. My last resort would be to go to the Apple Store and hopefully they can help or buy a new IPad. As far as the new iPad Air2 I have seen here they too are having issues.. Hopefully Apple can fix this soon.. Till then I will not be upgrading my iPad if a new one will have the same issues..

  • Trouble with phone ever since Denim update on Lumi...

    Ever since my phone did the latest update, it has a mind of it's own.  Cortana pops up for no reason, it freezes, and sometimes it acts like someone else is in control of my phone, opening apps that I didn't even touch, sliding the screen up and down.  I am really getting frustrated with it.  I even did a factory reset on my phone and it is still doing the same things, if not worse.  Sometimes I have restart my phone 5-6 times in a row to get it to act 'normal' for at least a few minutes. Has anyone else been having these problems?

    This problem has been reported numerous times on multiple sites and there is no resolution that I am aware of. Have tried it all. Lumia recovery, reduce sensitivity, disable background apps, disable glance screen etc etc. There are a fair number of users stating that this started after update so either we are all extremely unlucky to have hardware faults occur at the same point as an update or this is a software issue. Seems to me that there are too many people reporting this at point of software update for it to be a coincidence. Also its so random, sometimes get a few hours with no issues and others freezes several times an hour. Often putting the phone to stand by and back fixes the issue so not sure how this could be a problem with the digitizer. I love windows phone OS but this is the first phone I've had in a long long time to have problems and it has seriously put me off buying another keep hoping an update will be released to fix this but nobody seems to have any idea what is causing this so not very hopeful on that. Again there are far too many reports of this for it to be considered the users fault and yet they want us to pay to send it away. I've taken very good care of my phone and it doesn't have a mark on it so if this is a hardware issue it must be a design flaw. Totally gutted and my phone is barely useable at times.
