Nokia Lumia :: Location Icon Always Active In Status Bar On 920
Nov 14, 2012Why is the location icon always active in the status bar at the top of the windows phone start screen on Nokia Lumia 920. This is ridiculous and what I believe to be the culprit in the battery draining issue I am experiencing with this phone.

May 16, 2012For the past 2 years I have used the GPS Location software on my Nokia X6 for Geocaching- (A game where you find hidden containers all around the world), by entering a set of co-ordinates and the Nokia X6 guides me there.) This software utilises the integrated GPS function of the X6, so the phone doesn't need to connect to the internet or use any data. In fact this function even works without a SIM card in the phone!I have now upgraded the X6 to a Lumia 710, however I cannot find any Location software built in.software that I can download so I can carry on Geocaching using Integarated GPS-(like on the X6) and not Assisted GPS-(where the phone uses the internet, and costs me money.)

Nov 17, 2012I added my Facebook account to the accounts on Lumia 920 so I can use the built-in Messaging app for Facebook chat. However, the app (I guess) posts idle status messages to my Facebook timeline in every 1-2 hours. An example message:"I've been away since 15:37."I have now 9 messages like this since yesterday.I went through all the settings but could not find how to stop this. I disabled the Microsoft application within Facebook but then you can't chat and won't get the updates.

Jan 7, 2013So when I try to use my "Me Tile" to check in at a location it just gives an error message "Can't Search We're having trouble searching for nearby places right now."
I've tried master resetting phone, location services are on, battery and sim pull, no improvement. Checking for updates in phone menu, says phone is up to date, so no OTA available.
Then tried connecting to Zune on laptop, Zune can't see phone when plugged into USB, although Windows did download and install drivers. Uninstall Zune and re-install to try to fix, no improvement.Why does Nokia Drive work, but check in won't?
Nokia Lumia :: 920 Nokia Drive + Beta Location Freezing
Nov 28, 2012I am getting issues while using Nokia Drive + Beta, my position isn't moving when driving or taking 5 - 10 seconds to update then just freezes again.
it seems that i set destination, it finds me and my destination fine, i click start, it gives the first direction fine, i start driving and nothing, "my position" on the display doesn't move, the only way i can update it is "stop navigation" then "set destination" again where it picks up my new location.
i've ensured location services are on, location within the app is turned on, i've checked my connection is "online"...are there any other settings i should be aware of?
speed alert is off,
landmarks is off,
map colours automatic
updated maps
navigation licence is global
i am using it in a windscreen mount that grips the top and bottom of the phone with little "arms", i've tried in both landscape and portrait orientation. bluetooth is on and hoping to be playing music at the same time eventually.
i have been having the general "freeze out" issue recently with the phone where i lock it and then it doesn't come back on without a button reset, 2 times since friday
Nokia Lumia :: Can't Post Status Updates To Facebook Via Me Tile
Apr 12, 2012When attempting to to post a message <status update> via "Me" tile or "Facebook Application" I receive an error "Can't post message We're having trouble posting your message to Facebook" <from Me Tile> & "Your update could not be posted at this time." <Facebook Application>.However, in both I can like items in the feed and respond to posts.I've unlinked Facebook from Windows Live and relinked it already. I've removed Facebook from Accounts on the Phone and Re-added it to no avail. I am at a loss as to what else I could try to make it work.
This began after activating my new Lumia 900 on AT&T. I previously had an HTC Arrive on Sprint and tested it on there and it no longer can post status updated either.I feel like this either has to be a Facebook account setting or Windows Live account setting but I've tried everything I can think of and am now at a loss.ve unlinked Facebook from Windows Live and relinked it already.
Nokia Lumia :: 920 Maps And Drive Not Tracking Location?
Dec 13, 2012When I launch Maps and press the circle button to zoom to my location, it will do so. It finds me within a few hundred feet. After this point, it has no idea where I am. The dot representing me on the maps will vanish, and if I press the locate button again, it will pop somewhere else within a couple of miles of me, and then realize that isn't right, and not change the circle locator button to green, or show a dot on the screen. I can press the locate button again and have this happen continuously.When using Nokia Drive Beta, it will use my correct location to plot a course, but then not follow me at all, so it constantly displays the first direction. It, too, seems to have no clue where I am.My commute takes me through country, city, and suburbs. I've tried placing the phone on the dash, in the cupholder, and just holding it. Previous phones (iPhone, android) have not had this issue over the same commute.

Nov 26, 2012WP8 appears to completely lack the most basic Audiobook functioanlity. No seek/skip in audio or video? No bookmarking or remembering location in files?! I mean... I would like to see more advanced functionality specific to Audiobooks but these types of features are very useful for all sorts of media. The Nokia app doesn't even FFW or rewind through audio/video!
The Audible app is pretty great but I can't seem to figure out a way to use it to play any of the hundreds of older audiobooks I've created myself from my personal auiobook CD/Casette collection. I can't imagine what I'd do if I still needed to go through recorded lectures.

View 1 Replies View RelatedLumia 1020 :: Status Icons To Stick?
Nov 19, 2013I'm brand new to the Windows Phone 8 game and bought a used 1020. I've had various old school winmo phones before like the Moto MPx200 and the MPx220. It is not my primary phone and I bought it mostly for the camera to take pics whenever I have my phone. Haven't had the phone for long but one thing that irks me is that the status icons (cell strength, wifi, battery, etc) on the top do not stay there and always disappears. I can make them reappear by sliding down from the top but is there any way or option to keep it always there?

View 14 Replies View RelatedXperia Active :: Exercise Tracking Difficult Because Active Accelerometers Fail Intermittently?
Dec 31, 2011I have an app, Activity Classifier, that uses the handset accelerometers to provide information on activities and total exercise. It automates exercise tracking, classifies activities by type and quantifies aerobic intensity. Live data streamed from an Xperia Arc using the app is displayed in a blog. While it is possible to use on the Active it is unfortunately more difficult on the Active than the Arc because the Active accelerometers have a fault that is hard to get around. The problem is that the accelerometers sometimes take quite a while to start sampling when either started or the sampling frequency is changed.Occasionally it can take longer than 90 seconds. The problem can be seen with the app Accelerometer Frequency. Switch between sampling frequencies and notice that sometimes it switches instantly and sometimes it doesn't. To minimise battery consumption Activity Classifier acquires data from the accelerometers for 6 seconds out of every 30. If no other app is using the accelerometers they will start and stop every sampling period. On the Active they frequently don't start and the app detects a faulty accelerometer. The app has an option to keep accelerometers on and if this is selected it will work OK but battery consumption goes up a lot. The Active comes with a pedometer app called Walkmate. I can see from the Accelerometer Frequency app that Walkmate keeps the acclerometers running at 50 Hz and running Walkmate at the same time as Activity Classifier will make Activity Classifier work OK as well. Walkmate seems pretty power efficient and uses less than half the power of the market leading pedometer app Accupedo, run in power balanced mode, but it counts a different number of steps.
