Guys, I am gonna buy a Lumia 920 White today. It is a 2nd hand device so I wanna make sure everything is fine in it.

QUOTE(sosot000 @ Feb 28 2014, 10:23 AM) camera, my fren been going thru tis experience, MUST CHECK! 1st, open normal camera apps (not nokia camera), then take 1 photo with main camera, then without exit the app, switch to front facing camera and take 1 photo again.. if faulty the front facing one wont be able to take any photo... Thanks a lot bro.after that is mic check, open office app, then use recorder... then is speaker check, there are 2 speaker in L920, both located below the window key, open a song then cover each side to check the sound... last but not least, screen flickering check, without any apps to help, jus take a plain color photo, eg: whole white A4 paper, whole gree color paper, whole black camera blocking picture, whole blue or red color paper... guess thats most u wanna check, if u got wifi allow and usable, jus connect to internet and download hardware tests.. an app thats simplify everything... Hope you the best of luck, and welcome to Lumia family!! That really helps. Now I know what to do there haha otherwise my mind was just blank It means the main thing is camera stuff to check. Ah I see. Gonna write down all your points on my hand lol and do those stuff. Would write here as soon as I grab the beast QUOTE(s7ran9er @ Feb 28 2014, 10:35 AM) Wow such details man, really appreciate you took the time to type all these out. Getting a red one too but I felt white is a better choice. haha I don't know. My Lumia 920 red is second hand too, the phone came out from the box on tip top condition, didn't do any checks at all, luckily no problem. Did you buy any casing? How much did it cost you? I am checking on ebay and from China, I am getting casing for around RM 15 with free shipping This post has been edited by donizback: Feb 28 2014, 10:39 AM |

Guys I just bought a Lumia 920 white now.
Since it was a 2nd hand device, that guy reset the phone before giving it to me. But the problem now is, I can update it to the latest version. It says you phone is up-to-date!!! BUT IT IS NOT. What to do now? How to update it? |

QUOTE(Curiga @ Feb 28 2014, 11:09 PM) Try these step to update to black. haha thanks for telling bro. It was already updated but due to the hard reset, it wasn't showing that. I updated everything with Lumia system updater and now glance, storyteller and Nokia Camera are working 1. Via phone update 2. Via sysapp pusher 3. For glance http://www.nokia.com/us-en/support/faq/?ac...&topic=FA141614 4. Update all nokia collection apps |

QUOTE(lcy851031 @ Feb 28 2014, 11:34 PM) Go to settings, check about windows phone Mine is 3051.40000.1349.10317at there you should see your firmware revision number. Latest firmware, Lumia Black is 3051.40000.1349.0011, if it match, then you had the latest version of firmware. If you check extras + info in settings, it didn't say your phone in Lumia Black, that because some settings inside your new phone didn't get updated. Download Sysapp Pusher or Lumia System Updater from App store, the app will provide you shortcut link to the apps store on various settings to download and update it on your phone. Is it the latest one???? And is it Lumia Black? I can use storyteller and Nokia camera app as well! |

QUOTE(REManiac @ Mar 1 2014, 10:46 PM) anyone knows which store still have stock of 920 original set? Well try this guy Lumia 920actually i'm thinking about getting my mom a 630 as 625 only has 512MB RAM (rumour says 630 has 1GB) i asked her to wait till it's arrival if my mom really can't wait then i'll go for this lor as the specs are quite decent He is selling it dirt cheap man. Worth getting one from him. I bought mine yesterday but it is a 2nd hand from my friend. But this phone has only around 1 week or 2 weeks warranty! New by the way This is worth the price dude!
