# i dont listen to song, so i dont have app for music
# make sure to check last updated - at least jan 2013

thats quite a turn off for me. so far HERE is absolutely amazing for my usage, so no worries there regarding gps. i do encountered problems because of the slow update. map says go straight, but straight got blocked road with pilings and cranes. lulz.

me too like HERE alot... but since i travel a lot, a live update of police roadblock or speed trap helps a lot especially when i love to drive a bit faster then most people on highway..

dont speed. remember your loved ones.

i'll scold them, first time trying out nokia's service.
twice i went to HTC and my phone came back without problems.. hope nokia does the same

i think u better scold them at the very 1st time. then they will ensure make good for u.

Me scared lor after reading all the reports of hardware issues with L920. I might get Ativ S instead. At least I know Samsung service like boss

last time I sent my HTC for warranty, they call me to pick it up, they didn't fix the problem..then i went second time they give free gift leh ....so nice

Good luck with Ativ S. It is great device if Samsung put effort as much as Nokia & HTC. Check out this article before you buy it: http://www.wpcentral.com/samsung-trying-sa...e-out-microsoft

I am not sure how many owners have hardware issues, but I can tell you I am 1 of the happy owners here

Of course.
Finally, can fark the AES cams... 110kmh too slow. I tend to drive at 140-170.

Remember last time, i ada ask about users who updated to 1308 using nsu,

for find my phone in the website, when click refresh to find, the progress bar go to full and usually it will pop up the phone location, but after updated, no more pop up phone location and the progress bar stays full forever..

dont worry, it actually works, if you check ur livemail mailbox, there is a link to the map of ur phone location. So basically a bit leceh la since before update to 1308, the result just pop up instantly in the same window, now need to check email pulak.

my ring and lock with custom message also works.

bad news..

i was with a night cycling convoy in my housing area last wednesday and bicycle light ran out of battery. went pass a plantation area with total darkness and ended up in a pool of mud.

no major damage on my bicycle but unfortunately water went into my phone which i kept it in a pouch.

only realize it after i reach home after seeing mist at each corner of the lcd. few hours later back camera also filled with mist and a layer of water stain covered the lower right of the lcd and the stain ended up filling almost half of the right side lcd.

next day realize that the camera led not working.

still able to use the phone lcd slowly dying off after 2 days. i saw the entire process of the lcd dying off where it starts to flicker and filled with vertical lines. the vertical lines slowly fade off and screen went entirely blank.

could not manage to revive it and unable to erase data even with hard reset using the 3 buttons. though with my screen blank, i know that data is not erased because i hear new email tone after phone restarts via hard reset.

apparently hard resetting using 3 buttons do not erase data is quite a common issue after went tru several forums.

fortunately, i remember the erase data function in windowsphone.com and finally manage to erase my phone.

sent my phone to nokia centre in amcorp mall this morning and eager to wait for the technician to update me the status.

You didn't turn on Nokia Drive while cycling?
Just kidding.... hehe.
Sorry to hear that. Hope your phone get well soon...

I saw someone mentioned similar speed in Waze thread of Wpcentral. I believe it is you.

I heard nothing but good thing about Waze. Can't wait to test it when it release in June

Thanks for the heads up. Good to know that once I update to 1308


Sorry to hear about it.

LOL, i go by the EXkurogane name everywhere online. So it's obviously me.

Phone kena water, turn it off, put in rice for one week.

Thanks lightingzero, zachary and mencapah

Oh and congrats to you bro zachary, you got your lumia back.. cool. do you put casing on your lumia?

damn i totally forgotten about Nokia Drive! lol!


i did that on the same night. but the "stain" looks permanent to me.


now i can only wait for Nokia to get me back whether my phone can be repaired.

according to the customer service, water immersed is still covered by warranty as long as there's no hardware failure or crack of LCD.

can only hope for the best else LCD replacement costs around 650 plus 50 labour fee.
