GSM Interference - Nokia Lumia 800

Hello,
since I got my Lumia 800 I am hearing sounds coming from Modem itself - that classic "doo doo doo di di doo" D) - it happens on both speaker and on headphones out. It doesn't happen always! And it is most likely interference inside the phone, because with A2DP headphones it doesn't happen either.
Is it just problem of my specific phone or is it known global issue with all 800s?
Regards, Andrew
// I got my phone with some older drivers, updated to 12070 with Zune. I then quickly updated to 12072 because of the nasty volume bug.

I have the exact same problem and it's really annoying. :/

No issues for me (Lumia 800 RM801, 12070)...

Same issue here, badly designed circuitry inside.

[Q] Lumia 800 softkeys not lighting up.

Guys,
Just updated my lumia to
OS:7.10.8107.79
Firmware: 1600.2483.8106.11500.
Now my soft keys below the screen are not lighting up if i set the screen to manual(High or medium brightness). It only works when brightness is either low or on auto. Since i just got it and updated it without using it i don't know if its a software bug or not. Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks
It seems they do not work as you describe. Many have said this on a number of forums after the 11500/11501 update. Question is, did Nokia make it this way? We are not sure.

New 12070 firmware arriving soon to your Lumia 800

New firmware update arriving soon, 8107.12070
The following is a compilation of all known fixes & improvements in 12070:
• Battery drain issue has been fixed
• Lack of audio Bass when listening through headsets has been addressed
• Auto-white balance issue with the camera has been fixed
• Hardware buttons backlights are now always illuminated at all available screen brightness levels
• Diagnostics app has been updated to prevent users from receiving misleading technical readouts about their device
So why Nokia continued to say there is no battery bug, I do not know, if they claim that there's a new battery drain issue that has been fixed?
And why do I get the feeling that they've fiddled with the diagnostics to give you the readings you want to see?
Sigh, no tethering still.
Nice. Battery fix, just what I need to make me love my phone again.
Nice to see the lack of bass is going to be fixed! Thats my only gripe with my phone.
You can load the firmware 1270 with Nokia Care Suite.
Yes but isn't it vodafone branded?

Discharging is almost about one half smaller..on the network, wifi, flying mode etc
May be I would be able to write it will stand the same as HTC Titan
I send you a picture from a really bad conditions so pls forgive the quaility..
Looks nice! Do you know, when it's going to hit the public?
And does it fix audio problem for real? Because some song sounds really bad...

Music sounds a lot better than before
You can simply try vf nz.
I downloaded the 1600.2487.8107.12070 firmware and compared it to another phone I have running the older firmware. Whitebalance (picture quality) is much better, there is more bass in the music (same volume) and the battery drain seems to be cut in 1/2 at idle (as shown by the diagnostic tool).

give me tethering and I'll have one with in 24hrs
i squezed 4.5 days (on edge) out of the battery and i use purity monster in-ear earphones and listen to trance, the highs and lows are crystal clear, like Nokia always promisses. i can't complain much about the bass but i'm waiting desperatly to check out the latest firmware.
I can compare L800 to iP4S and N9. MS should work harder to improve battery life.
Other available product codes for the new firmware 12070

How does the camera compare to the 4S or the Titan?

[Q] Touchscreen responsiveness delay?

Hi all, is anyone experiencing this issue with your 920?
To reproduce:
- Power off
- Press power button and immediately swipe up to unlock
Will it unlock after the immediate initial swipe?
Which ROM/Carrier/Country model you have?
Thanks
UPDATE
After personally testing on several phones/brands, can confirm this is not a Nokia specific issue, it's a general issue with Windows Phone 8 (or at least most ROMs).
Phones tested and having this issue:
- Nokia Lumia 920
- Nokia Lumia 820
- Samsung Ativ
- HTC 8x
(all of them have Windows Phone 8)
Phones tested and not having the issue:
- Nokia Lumia 800
- Nokia Lumia 710
- Nokia Lumia 505
- Samsung Focus S
(all of them have Windows Phone 7.5)
This might not be relevant, but also tested on a Galaxy S3 (has the issue) and iPhone 5 (does not have the issue).
So since this is Windows Phone 8 related, I have created a Uservoice topic, please contribute voting so MS can resolve this soon:

Hi pckshd! I tried the same procedure on my Lumia 920 and dident get any problems.
The phone Unlocks as fast as i swipe the finger over the screen direct after pushing the power button.
Info:
Phone/Model - Lumia 920 (RM-821_eu_sweden_235)
Firmware - 1232.2109.1242.1013
OS - 8.0.9903.0
Best regards

i too had similar experience. But it gets ok when i keep he mob unused for half an hour. Now i turned my display and touch settings to high and now not much of a problem. so try this.ok.:good:
Stop focusing on the details of life
bro... I tried it on my 920 too, it has the same problem. The problem is that the lockscreen doesn't appear right away after u press the button. If u wait for it to appear and then swipe, then u wont have a problem. I don't think it'll ever get fixed, prob has sth to do with the WP8 architecture itself. Don't focus on those problems, makes u paranoid. when I first got my 920, I always focus on the little things like how the top is not tight so u could press it down, and how the dust gets into the FFC. after a while I came up with the epiphany that no phone is perfect, u just gotta enjoy it and ignore the minor details. I can c that ur a huge wp fan cuz u got the 800. 920 is a big leap from 800, so y not enjoy ur time using it?
hope this helps u

True no phone is perfect but I was kind of used to the 800 responsiveness (and other WPs, different brands), now every time I grab the 920 I feel I have a heavy and laggard thing in my hand, its kind of not letting me be fast and agile with it...
Of course its a powerful beast, just would love to have that thing resolved.

Will there be anymore updates after Win 7.8?

I recently required a Nokia Lumia 800 as a backup for work, updated it to 7.8, now i'm wondering will we see anymore updates or bug fixes in the future?
I think the main problem with the Lumia 800 is listening music is terrible on this device, when you first listen to a track more so quiet ones there is a distinct clicking sound at the start of the track, plus the volume low aswell and lack of any real bass, my S3 on the otherhand is superb, but the S3 also had that audio clicking when it first was released, which Samsung did sorted out pretty quickly.
Will this get sorted out at all, or have Nokia decided right you've got 7.8 that it for you lot, if you want more updates buy a Windows Phone 8.

[Q] Hissing Audio Issue

Hi Guys,
I've recently purchased a Moto E XT1021 and am dismayed that it has the same audio hissing issue that some of the LG phones have suffered from. The exact problem is demonstrated on a YouTube video entitled "LG G2 KitKat Audio Issues (hissing noise)".
It appears that LG have acknowledged the problem but I wondered if anyone was aware of an existing or future fix that will work on the Moto E? I've tried the latest stock, CM11 and SlimKat ROMs but the hissing is present on all of them. This is very annoying when listening to soft music like piano pieces.
I don't want to purchase any more headphones because I already own several branded pairs that sound great on my other devices.
I've tried the suggested solutions of turning off DSP effects, using aeroplane mode, using PowerAmp etc. but these don't impact on the hissing.
Cheers.

Interesting, I did not notice this. Also after extended listening with a good headset. Maybe it differs between batches? Ive also got an XT1021.

Thanks for confirming that.
Are you using in-ear headphones? All mine are 16 or 32 ohm and are the ear-canal type. My phone was purchased in the UK.
Also got an UK phone and used a Sure in-ear headphone....
Will double check tomorrow!

Nice one.
I've just located my old Sony MDR-V6 'over-ear' headphones and they have no hiss when connected to my Moto E. However, this doesn't surprise me because I've seen the interesting thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2611599, regarding the poor Opamp on the Moto G.
I'm still curious whether this can be 'fixed' with a software patch or if it's purely down to poor audio hardware. It seems pretty lame that a device from 2013/2014 can sound as bad as the old cassette tapes from my childhood.
Wow, there really is quite some hissing when using my Sure headphone
Don't know why I did not notice this before....
My other headphones sound great!
