re: Lumia 1520 Bugs & Defects

Well I sent my phone in for repair and Nokia replaced it stating it was a factory defect.. so maybe stop waiting for a fix and send your phones in under warranty. I don't know if the phones any better but I'll be selling this one and sticking to android. Love the note 3

re: Lumia 1520 Bugs & Defects

Hello to all

My wife will receive her Lumia 1520 after a couple of days. This will be our first WP phone. So, is there any test or guide about Lumia 1520 initial chech & test? Or would you like as to be so kindly as to list main points/aspects which have to be checked during receiving the device? For example, my HTC One X has built-in app for initial testing, which shows different features for user & asks him about the result.

re: Lumia 1520 Bugs & Defects

A 1520 owner for about 2 weeks. I have the random freeze and reboot every day. Someone mentioned about the phone not recognizing being plugged in. I have had this as well. I almost threw away a perfectly good cable because the phone didn't recognize it. Even when it does recognize being plugged in, It seems to take about 5 - 10 seconds which is excessive. I performed a hard reset about an hour ago, because I'm having the other storage problem. I don't have a sd card yet. My memory was under 200 MB. Every time I wanted to take a picture the phone would say memory full. I kept juggling stuff to delete. I checked phone storage today. I had 667.2 MB in temporary. Tried to delete 3 times, but got nothing. Oh, I also have the connection issue( showing I have signal when I really don't).

One more thing...The speakerphone is load when talking or playing music, but for some reason when I watch web videos it's low. I have to turn volume to 30 just be able to hear. I've had a Focus,Titan, and 920 and don't remember having to do this.

re: Lumia 1520 Bugs & Defects

After three weeks my phone just started randomly opening the Bing search. Its extremely annoying. I did a hard reset and did not restore any data and it still does it. It seems to do it more with a case on the phone. I am extremely annoyed. Looks like I may be selling the phone.

Does anyone know if Nokia will fix or replace a 1520 that has any of the issues in the op? My phone has taken a complete nose dive with this Bing search junk. I can barely use the phone now.

My 1520 deletes song information off the sd card. Every couple days a song's album or artist tag will be deleted. My 1520 has also deleted playlists and album art. 5 weeks in and my entire music library is getting closer and closer to having unknown artist and unknown album.

re: Lumia 1520 Bugs & Defects

My phone doesn't load music from the micro SD card anymore. It just shows the music as "other" under the memory breakdown. I synced the card with WMP after reformatting the SD card because artists started getting deleted even though all of their songs were still in my library. The music+videos app is so buggy they really really need to fix it with 8.1, if they have to they should rewrite the whole app since I don't know anyone that doesn't have a problem with it.

How did you format the card? I had similar problems with my Xperia Z1 even after formating the card in my laptop but stopped after I formatted it in my phone. It was a 64gb card if that matters.

re: Lumia 1520 Bugs & Defects

Not sure if this is really a bug or not, but it has popped up in the past week. When I plug my phone into a power source, it can take upwards of 20-30 seconds before the phone recognizes it and makes the "I'm being powered" sound.

Used to be fairly quick...like within a couple of seconds.

Anyone else ever experience this?

Yeah, I experienced this as well. As long as it charged properly and does not affect battery life then no biggie otherwise going for warranty

Hah...wasn't too worried about it. Did a restart and it went back to normal...just plugged it in and it took just a little longer. As long as it is charging, I guess I shouldn't care too much.

I had similar issue. It's gone when I uninstalled third party battery app and restarted my phone.
