Lumia 1520 :: Longer Time To Open Apps Or Freeze And Restart Automatically
Mar 1, 2015
I just buy a nokia lumia 1520 less than 1 months after updating i see that the phone lags , sometime it take longer time to open an apps or freeze and restart automatically:
Just recently the screen on my 1520 has started to become unresponsive after making or receiving calls and only a soft reset will fix it until the next time I have a call.
My Lumia 1520 (ATT Version) has had this reboot cycle problem for about a week now. It started a week ago when it was at 2%, died and when I tried to charge it, it started freezing and rebooting and freezing and rebooting. Originally I thought it was a power issue because it always had 2% when it restarted. I got it home to my Nokia original cord plugged into my surface pro charger and charged it and fiddled with it like turning it on airplane mode, deleting unread messages before it restarted, etc. But then recently its been doing it more and its been doing it while at 40%, 12%, etc. Even when its plugged in. It seems to get very hot every time I do this. During all of this, I have Xbox music songs I have pending download. I was going to let those finish over WiFi but it won't let me turn on WiFi. I'm wondering if the 53 pending downloads could be causing this issue but I'm not sure. I'm running the latest dev preview and cyan. I have a ton of apps and music and all that installed on my SD card.
Over the past couple weeks I've been having occasional freeze ups and spontaneous reboots of my phone. Sometimes the phone will unfreeze and other times I have to do an extended hold of the power button to force a reboot.It may not be locking up so much as the touch screen could be unresponsive.
Whenever I use one or more applications my mobile is getting restarted, I couldnt open the camera bcoz it always shows this message "general memory full please close some applications" even though there is no app. running on the phone..
I did both Lollipop updates, wiped the cache partition and did a factory reset after each update.. and still things are not quite right.
When I press the recent apps button it shows the recent apps - fine. But after I pull the battery and restart the phone, shouldn't there be nothing showing? Because even after taking the battery out and restarting it shows me a whole bunch...some that I didn't even have open before.
I also notice that the top two things showing in the GSAM Battery Monitor App Usage are Android System (14-18%) and Kernel (Android OS) (12-15%).
I'm having various other issues too.. it tends to get pretty hot. Sometimes I can be typing an email and then suddenly the phone takes me back to my inbox and what I was typing is gone..
looks like my notifications for Outlook are no longer working. I have a notification sound setup as well as "show in action center" enabled and "show notification banners" checked. This was working previously but a day or so ago I decided to do a hard reset and clean install of everything and after that I haven't been receiving the Outlook notifications. All other notifications that I have setup within the action center are working correctly.
So far I've tried re-syncing the Outlook account, unchecking it to sync and then rechecking, multiple soft resets, unchecking the action center settings for Outlook and nothing has worked.
My wife is trying to create a photo book on shutterfly, and pictures taken with her 1020 and uploaded to onedrive are fine, but any photos taken with my 1520 will not upload. I tried opening them up in Lightroom, and they will not work in there either unless I first download them from onedrive. Once I download them, open them in lightroom, and export them from lightroom, they work fine.
All my various folders from my tablet's OneDrive were transferred automatically to my Nokia Lumia's OneDrive. However, all the files in my "Favourites" folder show as only 1kb each and have the words "Just me" under each entry. None of them will open. When I try to open one, a warning comes up stating:" We couldn't open the file. Make sure you're connected to a Wi-Fi network" (Which of course I am). Maybe I need an app to open these "Favourite" websites. But which one?
The excel on my lumia won't open some excel documents. I get a pop up that states "this version of Microsoft can't open workbooks with graphical objects on header or footer".
So lets have a poll of some sort. As soon as you unplug your phone at 100% charge, what is the average and immediate stand by time. I'll go first. Mine says: 1 day and 3 hours.
I got a Nokia Lumia 1520 last week. Coming from an HTC One (M7), I am still impressed with the smoothness of Windows Phone OS -rarely I get any loading for an app. Moreover Metro has come a long way since the days of ZuneHD.
However I got a slight problem with the date/ time. Both the date and time gets reset back to 20 July 2013, 03:00 after the battery runs out or I try a soft reset.I already tried:
1) Setting the time on manual; it will reset back to manual time and the date/time above. 2) Setting the time on automatic, will still get reset back to manual and the wrong date/time. 3) Instead of setting the phone on 4G, I used the 3G and automatic. Same as above. 4) Setting the date manually and then to automatic, keeps the date/time I setup manually. 5) Turning the device off and on again (not soft reset with the volume key) will keep the date/ time regardless if it was set manually or manually and then automatically.
Since I update my lumia 1020 to black date is every day reset to 21/06/2013,time also reset from self, the settings is on manually. also I have problem when phone starting its frozen with nokia logo 3 of 4 startup times.
I've installed apps on my SD card but when i took the SD card out and open it directly in windows explorer, I cant seem to find any apps in there. I've also turned on my view hidden files in folder option as well.
Well, my Xperia Z2 foto it's update last week, I guess it's to the new lollipop firmware.And although I don't even care for the new styling (I liked the old one better) I can get use to that.But there are a few things that are really not an improvement.
Where in the last version it was pretty easy to select silent and vibration mode by pulling down the top of the screen.Now I can't figure out how to select vibrate notification anymore.I can't close all the open apps at one time anymore where there was a button for that in the last versionAnd I can't close my browser Window anymore.
In my Lumia 1320 time sync is not working. I can set it manually.
Few times it got restarted automatically [not frequently though, may be once in a week or so], and from then onward the time reverted back to the old time which was set as manually. If it set to update automatically, time sync is not happening at all.
Just wondering what philosophies different users have with regards to storing applications. Do you store a particular type of apps on memory card or just any app?
Any time I try to download apps or update them they won't install and I get the same error message: "We're having trouble installing the app..." It says to try updating my phone but my phone is already updated. I don't know what to do. Someone suggested a factory reset and I did and I lost everything because I thought I had it backed up to my SD.
None of my pictures will show up either and when I take new ones they are pixelated and different colors.
Or do I have a defective device? It's been like this since launch day, I just figured there were some bugs in the software they had to iron out, but it's not getting better only worse. I figured this would be a big news story if it was a widespread problem, but I haven't heard anything. I can't even use my phone as an alarm anymore because it will also randomly turn itself off in the night. I've been late to work twice now because of that.
On my 1520, at times the calendar and messaging app keypad will go to a light color and becomes blurry. Sometime it comes and goes. Sometimes I have to reset it. Sometimes I have to reset it multiple times to make it go away.
