Hi everyone, i already made a post about this in the 720 section of the forum, but I Guess other Lumia's can have the same problem. I bought a lumia 720 online (yes stupid i know) Seems it was an Asian version desetined for Hong Kong the seller sold me, so i have no warrantly in Europe. I thought i had, because the seller was from the UK and he did mention I have warrantly (but only if i send the phone back to him, not directly with Nokia). Now, the problems: I have to soft reset the phone at least 5 times a day because of the screen is just stuck. Apps keep crashing, just used whatsapp, had to start it 3 times because the phone always went back to the start screen. Just send a message and then back to the start screen. I did hard resets multiple times. Same with internet explorer, i start it and it opens and then i see 4 internet explorers next to each other, goes back to the start screen and i have to restart the internet explorer. Same with apps, using some apps, suddenly the complete phone blocks so i have to reset it.
I had my screen repaired (was broken), but this problem occured well before the broken screen. I did let it repair with Nokia itself, mentioned the problems but since the phone is out of repair it seems that the problems even got worse. It is so so so so frustrating to have this with a phone. I already paid for the repair costs, which is almost 50% of the price of a new 720. I would have had a 920 for the price I paid now for a 720, which is blocking and crashing all the time.
Has anyone had similar problems? I'm seriously considering putting it on ebay with the notice that it has software issues and going back to Android. Android may be laggy, but I've never never never expierenced such thing with Android. I don't want to pay another ?100 for repairs, I've paid enough for a phone that constantly blocks and fails.
You can say it's because an Asian phone. I don't care if it's a swahili phone or an Ukrainian. If this is the phone Nokia delivers in Asia it's going bankrupt.
On other websites I read something about a corrupt simcard, but I used my sim in another phone without any problems. To me it seems more to be blocking when its not connected to 3G and/or wifi. But it's not normal. I can't contact the seller because that's a nasty scammer.
I'm getting so pissed off by typing this. I feel like i've been scammed twice. Once by the seller, once by Nokia. Has anyone expierenced the same problems with WP8?
