Hey All,
Hope you're well.
I got a new Lumia 1020 at Christmas, which was ordered online by the buyer (here). Though the phone is unlocked and okay, it has a German CV. There are 2 issues with the phone:
- The signal on the phone drops every few seconds, changes to "no signal" and then picks up again up to 3 bars sometimes. Other times it is constantly in a "no signal" state and to so doesn't deliver text messages / connect to the net. To get it out of this state, I have to call someone, and somehow that forces the connection.
this is really annoying as the signal drops out ALL the time, even in the middle of calls. Could the reason for this be that it has a German CV? I know how to flash a GB CV onto it, but wanted to know whether that would actually fix the issue. I don't want to flash it, only to find out the problem persists and requires further attention. I can take it to a Nokia Care Point on the 2nd Jan.
- The backlight for the navigation buttons doesn't work. I've never seen the lights turn on at all. Someone informed me, by connecting it to the Lumia Recovery Software, resetting it, would make them work. I don't mind giving it a try, but I'd rather avoid the hassle of having to do the updates, set up apps etc etc.
Any help / advice would be very much appreciated.
Hope you're having a lovely weekend.
