Re: Nokia Lumia Series Smartphones Discussions and Experiences

There is a option and you can change between 2g and 3G . But what sense it makes that we pay for 3G and use 2g [:D] . For years I have this habit of charging the phone in night .
But yes your option is great for someone who only needs email , what's app and all , my 3G is more used for browsing and downloading songs from nokia music .
I think i have not made it clear [lol]
I meant -> If you are keeping your phone idle and want to get only updates, switch to 2G. If you are browsing, change to 3G and use just for getting a longer battery backup. Keeping 3G always ON drains the battery faster compared to 3G/2G combined usage.

Downloading music with 2G, No WAY .
I change to 3G while browsing, downloading. Change to 2G when i do not touch the phone (only to get updates).

Hope it is clearer now [confused]

Is gps app working in background ? GPS uses more resources and use more battery. Next time check the apps which are running before resetting it. Was 3G on? Happy to see it working.

Thanks for letting us know about the problem you faced.

@Dharmesh

Don't worry, till few cycles of recharge, the battery behavior is little different as some times it lasts for long time and some times it drains off quickly.

You can check the battery support after at least 15 full recharge cycles from there battery performance improves[:)]

Sorry for the confusion but, after battery was drained mobile was not getting charged and was not starting as well. That's the reason dad took it to Nokia gallery.

"After the Lumia 920 last fall, mid-May announced the Windows Phone manufacturer to lead a new model: The Lumia 925 Since it's on the market today.

The Lumia 925 is 129mm high and 8.5 mm thick, it weighs 139g. In spite of this size, the one-handed operation is no problem, because the operating system controls are built over a large area. Only typing, whether vertical or horizontal, to be done with two hands. The Nokia Lumia 925 is available in three colors: light gray, dark gray and white

The display is 4.5-inches diagonally in size, which are 114mm. It is an organic display that goes by the name "Nokia Pure Motion HD +". It is highly sensitive and allows operation with a glove. It also operates at 60 Hertz, reducing the fibrillation - a low frequency which was not a problem so far in the past. The resolution is WXGA, which is the highest vector at a Windows Phone. Important for the display sharpness, however, the pixel density. This is the Lumia 925 at 331ppi. That's more than you need. Other factors of displays are excellent: The black level is best in class, the viewing angle is stable, the colors are very bright but a little oversaturated. "

Re: Nokia Lumia Series Smartphones Discussions and Experiences

Ok, My wi-fi is working now. I just switched on DHCP and got done with manual tcp/ip settings.

Now a major issue, I am sure most Lumia owners want an answer to,

"CONNECTING VIA USB TO CAR AUDIO FOR CHARGING AND MUSIC".

Any luck for anybody? I've Pioneer but they only support apple and Android. I googled but even Microsoft designed car audios in Ford and Fiat don't support Lumia phones via USB.

Use the aux port and get over the USB problem [clap].
As superbad suggested, you can charge either thru CAR USB or Cigar lighter port. You can get Belkin USB charger ans use your DATA cable for it
