I keep the location settings on lumia 610 always turned on. I have observed that if I sit at a place, stationary, then the GPS is connected instantly and I can see my location on the map. But whenever I'm traveling in a bus / car the handset cannot find its location using GPS. It shows "Looking for GPS" message for all the time.
Is this a
1. GPS hardware issue ?
2. Some s/w update issue ?
3. Satellite issue ?
I brought this Lumia 600 a couple of weeks ago. My issue is Wifi connects initially but after playing sometime with the XBox games.. the WIFI automatically disconnects giving no reasons but the phone is not hung. Then i have to reboot the phone to get the wifi back...again after 15 mins it disconnects...and this process continues.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis weekend I updated my iPhone 4 (AT&T) and iPad 2 (Verizon 3G, wifi) to 5.1. Since the update (went flawlessly), I have been unable to connect to wifi networks anywhere. All that I get is the continuously running circle that shows it is trying to connect (but never actually does). I have RESET all Network connections numerous times, did the 'Forget this' connection on everything, etc. They will no longer connect to places that I have always connected to (Home network, CLE Airport, Hilton, Work, etc...). I can connect to all networks fine with my laptop and blackberry, but I just get the constant connection circle with my iPhone and iPad 2. I have tried:
1. Reboot (Soft)
2. Reboot (Hard (Home and Power button)
3. Forget WiFi connection
4. Reset Network Connections
5. Tried 6 different Wireless (wifi) networks that I have always been able to connect to with no luck.
6. Airplane Mode with wifi on...
7. Turned 3G off...

Lost wifi connectivity on 3GS after 5.1.1 OS upgrade. Have tried every remedy, short of wiping my whole phone (have done reboot, backup and restore, reset network settings, reset all settings, etc.). Apple says my "hardware must be broken." Hard to believe, with 350,000 hits with same problem on Google search, just in these few days since upgrade was released. I do not want to wipe my phone and start over (for obvious reasons), nor do I unnecessarily want to purchase a new phone (for even more obvious reasons).

I purchased a new HTC One M9 from Telstra (Australia) in July and ever since I got the phone I have been experiencing an intermittent problem where the GPS and the cell connectivity will both shut down and not connect to the cell towers and GPS location. There is an X above the cell signal and the GPS location indicator flashes and shows no connection. This happens every few days of use and the only way to restore connectivity is to restart the phone.
I have the firmware up-to-date OTA and I have even tried a factory reset.
This problem is not isolated to any one app and has occurred when using Sygic navigation as well as Run.GPS fitness tracker.
I am suspecting this could be a hardware issue! The issue is that it is an intermittent problem and not instantly reproduceable. The problem just happens and without any warning!
I have a BB Bold 9700 and during the holidays, I went to my parents' place, where there was no cell coverage... But the weird thing is that my Contacts disappeared as soon as I lost connectivity.... I figured they would reappear when I had coverage again, but not!
So I did a restore from my latest backup in BB Desktop Manager (latest version) and it still didn't work... I don't know what to do anymore...
The rest is still there, calendar, saved messages, pics, etc...)
I wasn't getting any traction on this when I posted it on the sticky bug defect page so I figured I would try a new thread.
I have had my 950 for about a month and a half and I really like it except for the issue I am having with WiFi. When it connects it gives me message that there is No Internet Access. And if I try something like web browsing I get an error because the phone is trying to use the WiFi connection instead of the Cell connection. This happens in multiple locations. I have this issue about 90% of the time and rebooting the phone fixes the issue about half the time.
I'm having some trouble with the Bluetooth in my car since I installed Cyan on my AT&T Lumia 1020 (I'm also running the 8.1 Update One Developer Preview).
My phone will pair just fine to my '13 Subaru Impreza, does not remain paired after shutting off the car and restarting. Seems to have lost it somehow.
After upgrade IOS 8.1.1 I have no service in my IPhone 5, lost WiFi connectivity from time to time and the battery is draining within hours. I tried everything that Apple support told me to do and still did not fix the problem.

After recently updating to Desktop 6.0 my software will no longer allow Bluetooth connectivity (which I had with the previous version).

View 5 Replies View RelatedSince the update, my phone no longer go into landscape. When I text, I usually flip landscape to do it. Now I cannot. Portrait Only. When I snap pictures, I always flip into landscape mode to view them.IT STINKS looking at the pictures in portrait mode.Two large black borders on top and bottom. I also discovered since the update, my phone can't read bar codes. My 920 is crippled but the update was supposed to make things better but it didn't and I'm sure there isn't much I can do about it but be annoyed for the next 2 years.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have the Nokia Lumia 710 (T-Mobile USA). and Today as i was on a filming set being an Assistant Director, i thought pictures would be nice to take and post on facebook for the whole crew to see.
I took about 30 pictures. i went back home and plugged in the phone to Zune. Zune says "Error reading files, disconnect and reconnect, if problem persists contact support" (do not remember the error accuratly as i am still upset but it means the same).
I disconnect/reconnect several times. with nothing. i tried changing dates on both computer and device, still nothing. untill i restarted the device.
this time it syncs fine, it just does NOT sync the NEW pictures and i can only see them on the phone. i delete all and only old pictures (from Zune) untill there was nothing left. now remember Zune does not see the new pictures so they were not selected (and yes i checked sync all in settings).I delete all pictures from Zune (all except new ones that are not even visible), to OPEN CAMERA ROLL ON THE PHONE AND NOT FIND ANY PICTURES LEFT!no USB mass storage (ohhh i can hack it with registry... really, microsoft????)no Arabic support (iOS has native support for all languages and it is NOT market dependent)
I would like to thank you for past Nokia phones and Symbian OS although buggy and updates were merely innovative.but, Microsoft have saved your a$$ from being thrown out of the smartphone market from lack of innovation (no matter how dodgy Android is, i kinda started liking it again after NOW). and Now for me to buy a Nokia device that loses data, ONLY controlled by Zune AND an OS as buggy as my dog **bleep**... that is something unbelievable.
i have left Apple's iOS for you guys, and the iPhone never ever gave me corrupt data messages or lost anything before, i only switched because i am loyal to Nokia and thought of it as an oppurtunity to get back on the Nokia wagon. Do you really want bad word of mouth?
this Mango release is so buggy and incomplete, i cannot even LOCK ORIENTATION, i CANNOT TETHER, so many software-based features are missing. So you compensated the lack of innovation with deeply integrated social networking.that is very good but the phone is unreliable and i am scared to use it again. Battery life is not that great, users are BEGGING for updates like beggers on the street, i would very much like Nokia to completly bankrupt right now. thats how i am upset.
I need someone from Nokia to contact me and show me how to restore those valuable pictures, or i demand compensation.
my Lumia 800 was hanging so i just restarted it and now see that all my pics and videos are gone. How do i get them back ?

My office mate from US has a 9780 with AT&T arrived in Singapore. He managed to get connected to the data and voice without problem, but his phone freezes very often. He needs to remove the battery to do a hard restart, after that it will be working fine and freeze again. He needs to keep doing hard reset.

My wife and I own iPhone 4S phones and will be traveling with them to England for the first time this coming holiday season. We have Verizon service with international calling enabled, and intend to use Verizon's international calling plan for the period while we are to be traveling (no swapping for European telco SIM cards). We each have extensive Contacts lists in our phones, and both are synced to our Address Books on our home iMacs. We have our US contacts memorized in the standard area code + number format, and similarly we have our Brit friends' cell and home phone numbers memorized in the "011" (US exit code) "44" (England country code) + number format. With that we can of course call US numbers as normal and the Brits just fine while here in the US. But when we are overseas I suspect we would need a different number sequence to connect with family back here in the US if needed, and we certainly couldn't call the English phone numbers from within England using the 011-44 prefix before their numbers. Is there anyway to prepare for that situation short of re-entering a bunch of phone numbers for while we are away, and then changing it all back again when we return a few weeks later? How do people who travel overseas frequently, say on business, handle this? Multiple numbers in different formats for each Contact?

I purchased my E72 last week and installed the latest Nokia Maps with free navigation support.
I had an absolutely seamless GPS connection in the initial three to four days of usage, but now, it takes me an eternity for the GPS to connect to the satellite. I have to wait for a minimum of 5-10 minutes every time I want to use the GPS. I tried reinstalling the maps, but that did not help, either. Should I Hard Reset the phone? Is there any simpler method?
I don't seem to be getting any 3G data connectivity on my fairly new Nokia Xpress Music 5800 Navigation Edition phone. It is only connecting via Edge. I checked with AT&T who verified that my account is provisioned for 3G data and I am easily within the coverage area since I am in NYC.
When I force the network mode to UMTS, the phone shows the 3G or 3.5G icon but there are no signal bars. Then if I force the Operator Selection to manual it sees AT&T, but when I select it I get a "No access" error message.
I understand early 5800s had a problem with 3G connectivity in NYC that was fixed with a firmware update. I'm using firmware 40.2.005.465.03.
Is there anything I can try to get 3G working or is this phone likely defective?
I have an N97 with 3 and I used to be able to connect to the internet and download with no issues. Since a firmware update a few weeks ago every time I try and connect to the internet the phones starts looking for a WLAN connection, rather than "connecting via 3" like it used to.
