Known fact, faster connection speed == shorter battery life.

There's a reason why a lot of us recommend using 2G is you want max battery life.

Even with full signal 4G, it still draws more power than a few bars of 2G

Is 2G still unstable at your place?

For work hours, I have my Nexus 7 charger. I also bring along Nokia DC-16 portable charger just in case during times of blackout (still happens a lot here) or if I'm not in my office room.

Yes, iOS apps still better for now but yeah, can't go back to that tiny screen

You can go to Metro Electronics in basement Karamunsing. They are selling at rm1699 since I was there last week. As for colours, would be best if you call them up.

Wah! Even Digi now offers Yellow & Red colours for online order!

No problem. Hope you get the colour that you want.

I had to wait 2 1/2 months to get the colour that I want.

You can ask them to help check what is the firmware version of the current selling phones. You can also bring it to Nokia Care in Star City linkbridge for free updating. I've not done it myself but my phone is in Nokia Care, pending repair

You can add your gmail account to the phone then all your contacts, calendars will show up on the phone. It's a 2 way sync also. Or you can just import all your contacts from Gmail to Outlook.com then use Outlook.com email to sign in. You'll need a hotmail.com/outlook.com/live.com account anyway to use the phone.

Regarding video formats, AFAIK the ones NOT supported are MKV, RMVB & any video that has AC3 audio encoded. Divx, avi & mp4 works fine. Oh ya there's no subtitles support.

Gyroscope seems to have died so all auto rotate functions gone. I played Temple Run it also can't detect me tilting the phone left/right. Worse I can't even open camera using camera key or app anymore

My colour? Yellow!!

LOL! Don't jinx yourself lah. My cousin who bought a red Lumia 920 same time with me didn't suffer from it also. Just my luck. This is the 1st time in my life I have to warranty claim a Nokia phone. Been using Nokia since 3210. Anyone remember that sexy brick?

Eh I edited my answer just now. It's a Yellow Lumia 920

Hey another yellow user!!! Hahaha! Great that you got discount also. Very happy for you.

Anyway, I got the Wireless Charging Stand while my cousin got the Fatboy charger. I prefer the stand which only cost RM10 more hehe. But it's not as portable as Fatboy.

About taking pic in low light, you have to know a little how to use it. The best way I found to showcase it is you have a dark place with some light coming from behind u when you take the pic. It can be just a dim light so the room is dim. Remember, the camera amplifies low light, but it needs some light to work. So completely dark places with no light or just moon light doesn't work. I've tried those situations already.

I think there are a lot of must have apps now like the usual chat apps, fb, twitter, camera lens. Check www.wpcentral.com often for tips & app sales. Heck buy the wpcentral app, it's worth it.

If you encounter such behavior, best just restart the phone. That solves it all the time for me.

Finally got my phone back on last Saturday. Mainboard changed & updated to 1308 firmware. Have to say the whole phone feels even smoother now than I remember it.

You're welcomed! Yeah I use a casing, got a few actually. Have hard back covers which were cheap but a bit disappointing, got the official Nokia cover which still attracts dirt too fast. Then I got the Rock hard cover & have been using it since.

There are so many!!! Haha! 1st place is check Nokia Collection, they have more apps there. Then just browse around you'll see lots of other apps. Also, since the reviews are plentiful in US region, it's easy to judge if an app is good or not by reading the reviews.

Nope, not until MS fixes this on OS level.

Using the yellow one, got it from eBay

Here's the one I bought but it's no longer available: Lumia 920 Rock Yellow Cover

Found another one at similar price if you wanna get: Lumia 920 Rock Yellow Cover #2

Eh.... there's no 3rd party task manager available but you do know how to access the task manager right? To control what runs in background, it's under Settings, Applications, Background Tasks. You can block what you do not need.

No I do not have issue detecting WIFI with my phone so far. Looks like it's most likely your WIFI router. As someone suggested, try changing channels in the WIFI router to lower like channel 1.

Did you restart your phone? Seems like OS version is reported updated correctly but Firmware isn't reporting correctly. Maybe another restart can fix it.


Super!!!!

Maybe it's just a mistake on firmware no since OS version is actually the correct up to date PR 1.1.5, same as mine. Anyway, check if you have 'Text reply' option in Phone settings. Or 'Keep WiFi on when screen times out' option under WiFi Advanced settings. If you have then you're updated correctly.

Not sure is it Nokia or MS have very bad Quality Assurance testing.

Wish you best of luck. Nokia doesn't have policy for 1 to 1 swap sadly. I got my phone back from Nokia Care after around 1 1/2 week. I had issue with either accelerometer or gyroscope. But it was not a smooth service, they kept insisting it's a software issue, updated it then sent it back to the Nokia shop I bought it from. Yet problem recurs just after simply using it for around an hour. Thank goodness the shop helped me to test, else would have wasted my time a lot to take, then have to return back to the shop. This got repeated 3 times, making me wonder if the ppl working in Nokia Care are humans or monkeys. On 4th return to Nokia Care, they changed the camera. But that didn't solve the issue also. Finally on the 5th return to Nokia Care, they changed the main board.

Hmmm.... never noticed this yet to be honest. My wife is using Lumia 820 & we seem to be getting similar signal strength for WiFi.

Why is this a 'oh no for nokia fans'? Not that I support HTC but this is an issue with the supplier to be honest.

Lumia 820 is actually worth it at it's current price now. The camera is passable, quite good in good lighting, but don't expect much from low light. Yes the 820 is identical internal specs wise to 920, except for the 8GB internal storage. That is the biggest mistake I think Nokia made on 820. The other downgrade is the screen resolution but the AMOLED screen is superb in terms of brightness! It clearly beats my 920 in that regard. Yes the 720 is lower spec internally, it's same spec internally with 620 & 520 which is sad honestly.

Yes expandable by micro sd but you have to remember the restrictions on micro sd. You can only install apps on internal storage so in the end, you're very limited to what you can install on 820. Install some games & all space gone already. Battery life wise I think it's pretty normal. My wife is a heavy call & sms user & it seems to last her through the day. She doesn't on data unless needed.

Wow!! Your usage I think definitely will not last long on 820 also. Yes, you can download the apps from Windows Phone store, put it on SD card, then install from there. Unfortunately, it will install to internal storage. That's how WP is designed. Installed apps all reside on internal storage. Ya, 820 camera is definitely not as good as S3. New WP8 phones? We also all waiting here

But safe to say something will be shown in the next few months.

Yes, that's Nokia's aim, to come out with a slimmer & lighter package, hence the switch back to alluminium. But still no concrete news, just a leaked photo which doesn't really look nice also.

Not sure but from the looks of it no since this is actually a security thing, not a missing feature. If they figure it out probably it's WP9 already hehe.
