Lumia 1020 :: Set Up The Programs For Loading Software / Firmware
May 2, 2014
I suspect the Lumia BLACK update messed my 1020 up. I'd like to downgrade to Amber if thats possible.If i understand correctly, UPGRADING to 8.1 will not fix anything hardware related since its only a SOFTWARE update, not a firmware update.
Reloading Lumia BLACK reloads the SAME firmware so the issue persists.
Loading AMBER would load a different firmware, which might revert the hardware to pre-problem state.I have followed all the tutorials to set up the programs for loading software/firmware, i just cant seem to find a copy of the Amber firmware.
For whatever reason, hardly any of my apps will open. If I uninstall, they won't reinstall. Says attention required and to check the phone for an update. This started after updating access point and network.
Will like to check what are the photo-editing programs (free to download from the net) that you will recommend if you will like to do some post-processing of the full size image at 38MP via desktop/laptop.
So my Lumia 1020 ran out of battery for the first time since I have owned it yesterday, no problem I will simply charge it.
Then on boot it loads the Access Point screen asking me to pick my network (EE already chosen which is correct)... not a problem but why has it done this? It does this whenever I turn the phone off and on again...
Is there a way to install old firmware on my Lumia 1020 (AT&T version) unlocked? I want to do the keyboard trick to get Internet Sharing working on tmobile then will upgrade back to Cyan. Nokia Software Recovery and Windows Phone Recovery only shows Cyan.
I'm from the Philippines and I really can't wait to try black Update on my Lumia 1020 since it is still waiting for approval.
1.Is it ok to flash different country from like APAC PH to APAC SG?
2. Will the Access points on my current cellphone be available on the other firmware (access points on my cellphone are auto generated or it is their by default.)
Was installing apps from the marketplace while listenting to music via Spotify, suddenly the phone froze and got stuck. after a few tries i managed to restart the phone by holding the powerbutton in for aproximately 10s. now its stuck on the Nokia screen, hard reset didnt work (holding down - vol.down, power and camera button) soft reset didnt work, obviously. what am I suppposed to do now? I only played with it for 30 mins then it died?
edit: it also seems, its not charging via the adapter that came with it? upon additional soft resets holding powerbutton in) it comes up with battery icon with one red brick, then it seems to restart and vibrate, before it gets stuck on nokia screen again. until i reboot it again. will let it stay on the nokia screen for the night, let's see what happens.
Notice webpages going off screen and nothing can be done. I have a screenshot to show what I mean however the WPC app do not have the options to attache images neither the mobile site of it. Frustrated that other platforms can format website correctly but not on WP platform. Anyway to ensure website load correctly?
Using Lumia 1520 w/windows phone 8.1 update 1 preview.
I just got a N1520 last week, but it will not load up desktop version on IE on many sites even thought I have it set in the settings to do so.
What I do not understand is my N920 with a smaller display, and not really the hardware or storage of the N1520 always loads the desktop version every time.
Still running WP8. Camera won't start up, display is black after "Loading..." But my first problem is the display, "Graphics Processor?" Is starting to fail? it started with my game freezing in progress, then turned into the display turning black for a few seconds, and has now turned into a scrambled display...
I've had the Nokia lumia 1520 for about 6 months now and i cannot work this out!
Since an update i now have the lumia camera and if i load a photo from the gallery into a tweet it loads as landscape and i cant rotate it. If i take a photo direct from the twitter app it loads fine.
Ive also noticed when I connect to a computer the photo seems to be saved in landscape, but this is not such a big issue as i can rotate it.
I have uninstalled Insider. Went to store to install, it said, it's installed. Restarted the phone, installed Insider, selected fast ring, reboot. Now, when I unlock the phone, I see "Loading ... " on the black screen with dots flying above. Is that a problem? What exactly are we loading?
ok my tourch 9680 has just turned itself off completly and now resets over and over, the loading bar gets half way through loading then turns off and starts again,
I have the 1020. I get updates on my Facebook page from Shape magazine. It has videos on workouts. When I click on the link it says I need an app and do I want to install. I hit yes and says no app available and takes me back to the post. When I install the App from the app store, it's free, it appears to install, but cant access it.
I wonder if there is an app similar to "No screen off" (Android) that allows to suspend the automatic screen off, then reactivate it with the previously memorized delay.
Click on the widget to toggle between the two modes, to change the screen timeout.
My 1020 has become quite sluggish of late so I've decided I'm going to do a hard reset at the very least.I bought the device (yellow AU CV) whilst on holiday in Australia, but I'm now back in the UK, so I thought as I'm going to wipe it anyway, I might as well reflash it to the CV UK ROM, especially as Australia appear to be massively stalling on Denim as well.
Lately, I've been getting a fair number of corrupted DNG files in my Lumia 1020 - I mean, I guess they're corrupted, since when I import them to Lightroom, the program states it can't open or edit them.
Curiously, the 5 mpx are fine.. When I check the size of the DNGs, I can see that they have, exactly, 1 byte less, in size, than the DNGs that Lightroom can edit.
For some reason, my Lumia 1020 died on me today for no apparent reason. I had been listening to music on my way to work this morning, put the phone down on the table, and no more than an hour later the phone was off. I tried powering it up, but nothing happens, nothing appears on the screen, no startup vibration, etc. The phone had a full charge before work. I know if there is a batteryproblem, the phone will display a red battery picture, but this has not happened.
I recently got a Lumia 1020 and I am very disappointed with how off the colours on the display are. Pictures often look very yellow on the screen, though the same pictures look more accurate when viewed on other devices. It seems to me that a phone focused on taking pictures should have a screen that has more accurate colours.
When I leave the phone sitting for a few minutes it drops from H+ to H meaning I can't access the internet on IE or receive Whatsapp messages. If I toggle flight mode on and off or restart the phone it works fine for maybe 10 minutes or so.
I have network selected manually, I have tried automatic selection, it makes no difference. I also have 3G set as the highest connection speed. I upgraded to WP8.1 last week but have had no issues until now.
I am at my wits end trying to work out how to back up the RAW files from the Nokia 1020 to an external hard drive.
When I use the windows phone app on my Mac computer it always converts it to a jpeg file. Even if I drag the file to the desktop.
When I copy it to iPhoto, then try and export the original Raw file it exports a jpeg. Even if I tell it to export original.
It appears that iPhoto is using the RAW file becasue there is no jpeg written at the end of the file name, plus the file looks smooth when enlarged in iPhoto
Just got my 1020 and set it up for both my Hotmail (Live) account and work (iMap). My problem is my Live account calendar shows but not my work one. As I don't use my personal calendar at all but do use my work one all the time it's a bit of a problem.how I get tit to sync to my work calendar?
My wife got the Nokia Lumia 1020 now for a few month. And recently a small problem started occur,some times when she shall recharge the phone ( no matter if it's though the computer or wall socket ), the camera starts by it self and start taking photos.The phone continuous to take photos until we unplug the cable, it don't work that we turn of the camera app, it just start over again, and continuous to take photos.
I am confused on the file sizes/ reading many many reviews I keep reading about 16:9 photos at 30 plus MB, but for me so far my photos 16:9 are around 13-15 MB size? Maybe I got my Megapixels and MB confused. One photo is 7712 x 4352 =33 Megapixels , The JPG file size is 9.37 MB ....
