Is it just me or is the downloading of apps via WiFi really slow? Works fine on mobile network and browsing the web on WiFi works normally too, it's just downloading apps that's slow. Just reset my phone to fix my GPS (which seems to work now), at this rate it'll be a long time before my apps are downloaded again.
For the most part, I like the 950 a lot. I did a hard reset to try to get the upgrade, no update. it fixed my music library problem though. That was nice.
I activated my insider on the phone. It showed the update. So I updated the phone. NICE!!!!!! I thought. My laptop, on wifi is about 30gb/sec download. My phone? about 500kbps/sec down.
I Just got a iphone 5s..it takes ages to download a app from the appstore over wifi. There is nothing wrong with the wifi as I also own a galaxy s5 and wifi works just fine on it.
When my phone is connected to WiFi I get at best .8 mps on a speed test and around 12 when connected to 4g. Every other device on the same router is working fine.
The internet connection on my 1020 is extremely slow when WIFI is connected (every other device I own is fine and can easily clear 30 meg download, 5 meg up.) When I use search, the phone screen times out and shuts off before returning any results (times out after 1 minute). I have reset the phone this morning to start over but the problem remains. The speed is perfect using Data and WIFI off, but once WIFI is enabled, the internet comes to a near halt.
I had installed what's app in my lumia 610..ND the speed to load it nd open it is very slow since the day I had installed it..how can I overcome this problem?
I like my e73 that i got a part of t-mobile upgrade with full price option. i like the fact that it quickly connected to the web etc usnig WiFi inside my house - i had some hiccups connecting at other places and checking my gmail using WAP. but a bigger problem, when i head out of my house - my e73 phone goes from wifi (pink hotspot tmobile circle) to 3g - i live in dallas fort worth metro area. i see many bars (horizontal lines stacked) to show a good 3g reception. after i have crossed the street corner, my cell phone is not able to go through the contacts book to call someone. as soon as i reboot the cell ph, it is all normal. making contacts, other folders run on memory card memory, did not fix it. i have hte latest patches - all got thro wifi.
1. when configuring linked mailboxes all may GMail emails appear before my mails from other IMAP account (which maks inbox totally usless)
2. I would like to be alble to search all my emails that are in inbox so I selected downloda emails: all(my translation may be not accurate) is sync settings. That coused the phone to download all my emails from my google account that is approx. 10000 messages. Now the search function in mail app is super slow (like 30 seconds to display anything). I changed the sync options to sync only emails from last month but it didnt change anything.
I Have the beautiful Lumia 920 and I got the Wireless Charger in order to use it in the Office, I found that it's taken too long time to charge my battery, for example today I charger from 45% to 100% in 4.5 Hours!
What is the point of launching a product in September when no one can have that product till the end of November? The latest Nokia Lumina range was announced and launched but no products are available for shipping?What was the point of the launch? If any of the smart phone manufactures are to have a shred of credibility with their clients they need to smarten up their act, since the 920's launch Apple has launched and delivered to customers three new products.If Nokia want to survive it MUST have product ready to ship at launch.
I have a huge app collection so normally get quite a few updates every few days. I normally plug my phone in at night for charging and press 'update all'. By morning everything is done as it was done over wifi. For some odd reason, it has not been working for the last few days. When I get up in the morning all the apps are in the exact state of download as when I plugged my phone in for charging. What can be the culprit here? Really need this functionality.
I'm having this weird link in my app list. It links to downloads in the store.How can I get rid of it?I'm not downloading or updating apps and I neither have any updates available. I can't just delete it, I only have the option to pin it.
A few months ago, I dropped my phone (the day before my case came in the mail, of course) and the screen went fuzzy, much like an old box tv for several minutes, then rebooted several times before catching up to itself. I'm not sure what on earth happened because of this drop, but since then I have had a huge amount of issues.
First- I cannot complete certain updates on my phone, including some system updates such as for "extras+info" and "Lumia Camera". I get the error code 80070539 on these failed updates, but I do not believe that is the real reason these apps will not update. One method I used to fix this was to make sure I accepted updated terms and conditions for Microsoft, which completed some updates, but I still have several left waiting.
Second- Several apps and processes just do not work at all. Example: settings>applications>photos+camera the screen begins to flip over to the photos+camera menu, then abruptly stops before returning to the applications menu. This exact scenario happens to several other processes throughout the phone, including the calendar app, adding new emails and accounts, etc.
Third- I cannot backup my phone. This is a major problem as I have an abundance of files that I desperately need on my phone, but whenever I attempt to backup my phone, it may make it up to 97% maximum before it says the backup failed. This is the primary reason I haven't attempted a hard reset yet, and I would prefer to avoid doing a hard reset unless we can manage to fix at least the backup issue.
Fourth- My computer will not recognize my phone. I am running a laptop with Windows 8.1, all my drivers are up-to-date, I've uninstalled/reinstalled drivers, etc. but the computer doesn't even recognize that I plug the phone in, even though my phone still charges at a normal rate. I have also tried different computers and different cables. Nothing has proven useful. There is not a place in my computer that I can find a trace of detection of my phone, not under devices/drives/anything.
I will try just about anything that doesn't involve losing all of my data.
I've been using the Lumia 710 for the whole day. I leave Wifi and Data connection on.
It's been connected to 2 wifi points at work and home and has only been connected to 3g twice, for 30 minutes each time. I haven't even been heavily accessing apps.
In that time my data allowance has fallen from 83mb to 56. I can't understand why this would be so high. 27mb used in a day when I've been connected to Wifi points for most of the day... When I have the same sim card (network: three) in my iPhone 4, the equivalent usage is on average less than <3mb when I haven't been actively using the phone
I personally don't think that I should have to turn off data connection because Nokia doesn't know how to prioritise wifi over my data connection. I have a limited allowance, and having to switch data connection on/off all the time is annoying, for something other phones get right.
If I'm connected to a Wifi point, my 3g data connection should NEVER be used...
I'm using wired internet connection on my PC. PC is having wifi USB adaptor. I'm using internet connection on my laptop through PC wifi (ad hoc network). Few days back, I purchased Lumia 710. As I'm trying to connect to PC's WiFi, it is not getting connected.
About two months ago, there was a lot of buzz on the net about "lumia 800 gets wifi tethering in the next update"Well... Am I missing something important on my phone or is the wifi tethering still not there? I could use it, especially since Joikuspot is not available for this phone.
I read a few posts yesterday about having slow WiFi speeds while Bluetooth is on. I couldn't figure why my speeds were so slow on WiFi at home and at my sister's house. Like barely over 1mbps. Then I saw the article , turned BT off and my speeds were over 25. I don't know if this is just an LG G3 issue or for others too after lollipop. I just got the LG Watch Urbane and this won't cut it if I want to keep this going. I use WiFi way more and will return the watch if I can't figure out a fix.
I have noticed recently that my Iphone 3GS only achieves speeds of about 6 Mbps when using the speedtest.net app to check. About 6 months ago I was achieving 12-14 Mbps. Also, my laptop (Though 802.11n) achieves 37 Mbps. I realise that my iphone 3GS only has b/g wifi technology, but surely it should be faster than it is, especially in relation to what it achieved before and also in relation to my laptop speeds?(I am running the latest OS)
WI-FI connect of XPERIA Ray to router 75mbit/s, but copying speed from smb disk with ES explorer 6mbit/s. (Micro SD Card Class 10) WI-FI connect of netbook to router is 54mbit/s and copying speed 27 mbit/s! Why ray copies 4 times slower then netbook?
Got mrs S a 610 for her birthday a month ago As Mrs S isn't the most technologicaly adept of people she was worried at first, but has found the simple interface much to her liking However I have come across an problem which now I know what it is is a minor thing but it took some tracking down A few weeks ago I was browsing the web on my PC when suddenly the internet connection dropped out, the PC could see my home wireless network but wouldn't connect to it. I then noticed my N8 was suffering the same issue I looked at the router and it thought it was working, also the devices conencted via ethernet cable still had internet connectivity Tried rebooting the routher, the pc and my N8 to no avail, the router thought it was broardcasting a signal and the devices could see it but wouldn't connect. deleting the access points and trying to reestablish them didn't help?
It was getting late so giving it up for a bad job I decided to go to bed, on the way up I noticed Mrs S's 610 on charge on the landing, thought I'd have a look with that, tried the internet, nothing, rebooted and the net was working. In the morning the other devices would also connect fine A few days later I experianced a similar event, again reboots wouldn't work, but then my eyes fell on Mrs S's 610 again on charge, I turned the wifi off on this and instantly PC and N8 could connect again, turned the 610 wi fi back on and not a problem until last night when the same thing happened, again cycled the wifi on the 610 to clear the issue
The TLDR occasionaly when the 610 is on charge it's wifi suddenly jam every other wireless device from connecting to the same network, cycling the wi-fi on the 610 clears the problem?
I'm sharing my internet connection from my Macbook pro, and have been connecting with my old Lumia 800 without problems. Today I took the plunge and bought a 920. On my way home, I connected via wifi to McDonalds without any problems. When I arrived home I tried to connect to my Macbook using the correct password, and the 920 gave me a "wrong password" message.I then changed the password on the Macbook to a 40 bit WEP code - still no joy. I've tried rebooting both the Mac and the 920, switching channels on the Mac wifi channel and am now getting peeved, as my old 800 still connects without fail.Occasionally I get the "wrong password" message, other times I get "Unable to join".
I've enabled auto-upload but can't seem to see if this is WiFi only which is what I want. If it uses my phones data-allowence it's going to get used up pretty fast??
This may no be possible yet from a hardware perspective but as more and more mobile devices become available it does not make sense to have seperate data plans for each and every device (I am sure the cell providers would prefer this though) Instead what is needed is a dedicated personal wifi hotspot that is built into the phone. Not one that guts the functions of the phone when activated mind you. At this juncture the only way to accomplish this is to purchase a Dedicated Personal WiFi hotspot. If this is the direction that will be forced upon us then we might as well do all communications through VOIP and by-pass the cell carrier for all but internet access.
Now, I turn on internet sharing with my Lumia 900 and it simply does not appear in my WiFi networks list on my iPad, MacBook Pro and iMac (OSX 10.7.4) or my Lenovo G575 (Win7 x64).I try to manually connect in both OSX and Windows but it either causes the trouble shooting wizard to appear (Windows) or throws an error saying either the network does not exist or the connection has timed out (OSX/iPad).
When I first got the phone the beginning of June, I was able to tether to my computer at work whilst the internet was down (Fujitsu Lifebook, Win7 Pro x64) - I did this twice without a problem and was able to get on the net (I'll actually check this still works tomorrow; if it doesn't then it may be a hardware issue).
I watched my Nokia Lumia 920 update three apps tonight. Two of the updates used the phone's cell network. One update used wifi. Is there a setting on that I can set to make the phone only use wifi to download updates?
I have a nokia lumia 900 from at&t and is there a way to close the internet in the phone (without using the data plan for extra charges) and ONLY use wifi ?
Before I use Nokia C600-Symbian S60 V5. I can search, find and connect the point-to-point wifi. but now I switched to lumia 920, but this wifi can't be searched and showed, let alone to be connected. anyone know the reason and how to solve the problem. because I only have this one access to use internet.
i have a problem with the WiFi setting.Everytime i try to connect to my home's wifi, the phone says that the password is incorrect.The password is correct, but what can i do?
I have a 920 that has given me fits since I got it a week ago. I have had this happen at several hotel, work and home locations.What happens is that at some point during the day, I want to connect to the Wi-Fi whereever I am at. So I turn on the screen, go into Settings/Wi-Fi and I am not able to connect to anything.The Wi-Fi option is turned ON but the toggle for it is grayed out and you cannot change it (to ON or OFF). Also, there is a progress bar scrolling across as it indicates "Searching". It will stay that way for HOURS if you wait that long.I also noticed that if I go to Bluetooth settings at this point, I cannot turn that On or Off either (although the toggle is not grayed out).The rest of the phone and app functions work normal at this point.The only way to get WiFi or BT working is to reboot the phone, then everything will work for a while and at some point in time, this will happen all over again.
