    Hearing Damage Warning

    It's a European requirement. So what is it doing on AT&T's U.S. 1520's? Wireless charging and the other 16GB of storage managed somehow to miss the boat to the U.S. Yet European volume nannies shipped out on time? And knowing this phone is going to both markets, Microsoft/Nokia couldn't have...

    Hearing Damage Warning

    Perhaps you want to stow the arrogance. 1. The warning does NOT automatically appear the second you go over the excessive volume level. 2. The excessive volume level is NOT even clear not to mention set in stone and it is most assuredly NOT 13 because if it is? The phone takes forever to post...

    Volume warning

    Then why is it installed on AT&T U.S. exclusive phones like the 1520? This is not the EU's fault this is laziness, arrogance, ignorance, or all three on the part of AT&T, Microsoft, or both. They have no problem disabling wireless charging and short changing U.S. customers out of 16GB of storage...

    Cortana can't hear me

    Cortana can't hear me

    Also having this issue on a 1520. My microphone doesn't work but when I use Bluetooth worth my Motorola Hint I can do voice text message, voice search, etc. The Cortana training thing can't hear me though.

    Can't create start screen folder on Lumia 920

    Same here. I just did this last night into today because the power button stopped working consistently and the phone suddenly went berserk. Not refreshing the screen quickly or doing anything else right, not turning off (only rebooting), etc. I'm on a 1520. I backed up, did my factory refresh...

    My phone won't turn off, it restarts.

    I have the latest update (Black) and it's (my 1520) still doing it. I have 8.1 Dev Preview and now I'm having the power button issue where it fails to turn the screen on and off and generally fails to respond to much of anything. I've soft reset like 5 times and it still persists. Losing my...

    How to turn off trackpad tapping on Touch/Type Cover

    This app is the exact same app that is already on my Surface Pro 2. Except that this app does not even find a type cover installed on the machine period. The app that's built in that does the exact same function with the exact same interface allows me to switch off the trackpad, and then...

    Vpn

    It's 2014. Nokia Lumia Black update. Lumia 1520 with GDR3 or whatever you call it. In March. STILL no VPN. Thank God for 2X. Like Citrix except not annoying like Citrix or a PITA like Citrix and we replaced our entire Citrix farm at my company with an equivalent 2X farm, same number of servers...

    Why no Love for the 8X?

    I don't get the cloud storage copout. How does that help anyone in airplane mode? Such as my brother trying to ride a motorcycle and not wanting to have his streaming interrupted by text messages which, until the newest update, could not be shut down on bluetooth and still can't be shutdown...

    920 volume disabled when headphones connected.

    The volume leveling control has nothing to do with this irritating nanny feature that takes the volume down by itself. Doesn't affect it at all, even on AT&T 1520 Lumias like mine. This is a ridiculous and maddening feature and is dangerous in a car and a total deal breaker when on a bike or...

    Lumia 1520 Bugs & Defects

    re: Lumia 1520 Bugs & Defects The only thing I would consider a serious problem (and probably not a bug) with my 1520 so far is that there is a serious lag with app developers (or possibly Bluetooth firmware writers) updating their compatibility with the new phones. I am having a horrible time...

    Ok. What happened to the "Never" option for the lock screen timeout?? Irritating as hell!

    Re: Ok. What happened to the "Never" option for the lock screen timeout?? Irritating as hell! Okay understandable, and understood. Doesn't the 1520 have an LCD screen? So then what would be AT&T's excuse there, because mine tops out at 5 minutes which becomes quite dangerous trying to do...

    Lock screen timeout issue

    No mine has 5 minutes maximum. Which is annoying when I'm streaming in my car because I have no interest in punching in passwords while doing 75 down the freeway. I thought we had dispensed with this with the 920? How exactly does Nokia/AT&T/Microsoft go backwards on something that clearly was...

    Yellow Nokia Lumia 1520 Shipping Thread

    Don't feel bad Yellow people. I ordered the White one. 12/10 and still no phone and what I had to go through to get Customer Service to admit it was backordered? LOL (bitterly). And I got the "we'll cancel in 30 days" too - this after them having canceled my first (of 2) orders already on the...
