I tried rboodro's fix but it didn't work, albeit my problem is slightly different. The phone already had low battery before I went to sleep, so the first thing I did after waking up was to charge it. 3 hours later, the phone was still in the locked screen with the battery and one red line. It was connected to a wall, so I tried connecting it to my PC. Same thing happened. I connected it again to the wall charger, and after a little while it did charge enough for me to send a message. When I returned half an hour later to check on it, the phone was dead and hasn't responded since. Doesn't matter if I connect it to the wall charger or my PC, it doesn't vibrate or anything.

hi,
i have the same problem, take it the service centre, really they didn't know the problem,
then i gave up, and start to test it my self,
i find out that the battery link with the device through pens or needles ,
those are not fit with the battery, it was loose , so, with my finger nail, i bend those needles a little bet
then return back the battery,
and it work like magic
hope it will be helpful to you

Hi there, yes, my Nokia Lumia 620 which I've only had for a month, did just that. I took it back to Carphone Warehouse who gave me a new phone and battery but not a new charger. When I got home and plugged it in, it did exactly the same, charging sound, then the charger stopped, then back to the charging sound. I am currently charging the phone up on the computer usb port and it seems to be working. I am quite annoyed that I had to have a new phone, when it is the charger that is faulty. I am going to buy a third party charger from Argos tomorrow, but will notify Carphone Warehouse that the original charger is faulty.

So my 920 won't even get to the "charging" screen. When I plug it in I don't even get the vibration. It's completely dead. Tried the reset trick with the 3 buttons, no help. Any other ideas?

Same issue here. Phone just died in my pocket. When i tried to charge it, i just got the battery indicator with one red bar and a flashing charging sign. I tried both a soft and a hard reset, after leaving the phone on the wall charger overnight. I also tried the nokia software recovery on the pc, no luck. Took it in for repairs, mtn reckons they'll get back to me in two to three weeks. Man, this sucks. :mad:

maybe its a problem with the charger cable. Do you have other microusb charging cables or a different charger body.

I received my lumia 920 and as soon as I turned it on I went to see how the camera looked. The phone froze and turned off, after that every hour my phone would either restart or turn off. The next day at work my phone died. I charged it a little bit in the car and turned it on with the battery saver logo in the battery icon and than it turned off again. Since then I put the phone on the wall charger that it came with and nothing helps not even a hard or soft reset. I left it on the charger for 8 hours. I really want this phone to work. The time it was on I loved it but it has been nothing but problems from the time I took it out of the box.
Please help. Thanks.

Looks like a faulty device.
You said that you just got it so I assume it's new. So get a replacement.
