Lumia 920 Freezing - Any fix for this? - Nokia Lumia 920

So I've only had my Lumia for 5 days but from day one it's been randomly freezing no matter what I'm doing, be it texting, web surfing, anything. I downloaded the software update and the problem persists. It happens several times per day and I have to soft reset which erases some of my settings, its totally annoying. Is there a fix for this or do I have a defective device?

Try a hard reset which unfortunately will wipe everything from your phone back to factory settings, If problem still persists then you definitely have a faulty device and should return it.

Set your highest data setting to 3G. This will disable LTE but for me it seems to solve the problem. Let me know if this works for you.

Sorry...disabling one of the best features of your phone to get it to work correctly is not solving the problem. You have a defective unit plane and simple

Yeah I'm sending it back tomorrow lol. I was just thinking the same thing. Nokia wanted me to remove skype cause they said that was causing it, then they said the facebook app was causing it. It's like ok, I have to disable Facebook, Skype, and IM+ to get it to work? What's the point of this damn phone? lol. Yeah my device is defective.

I know for a fact my device isn't defective because mine didn't start freezing until the portico update.

You missed my point. Disabling any stock feature of the phone to get it work properly is not a "fix", it's a bandaid. I stand by my statement...defective. Whether it be the hardware or software...still defective.

If you have a sim card that does not support LTE then yes it is a fix. However. I have also installed the portico update, 4G disabled and the phone went from never rebooting or freezing to reboot 2-3 times a day and at least 1 freeze.

svoice down?

So I guess I do not kno how svoice works but it doesn't seem to be working for me anymore....
I tried "what's the weather like for today" it correctly shows the question, however takes a long time to process and comes back to say " no weather results, sorry"
Anyone else experiencing issues with svoice...I already tried deleting its data and restarting app no luck. it can do web searches but no weather at all

Well at least sounds like I'm def not alone... I will stop resetting things on my end.... wondering what's happened too...
Svoice is terrible nonetheless, It delays the home button (disable svoice and see the difference) it laggs way behind siri and has very limited capabilities. It would be adequate if you can use it when the phone is locked and can be used via headset. The major delay on the home button is a deal breaker itself to me
Down? Hasn't it always been "down"? Hahaha.

The first time I tried to get the weather from svoice was about a week ago with no problem. So I assume this is a network problem most likely that will be fixed on their end.

By resetting it, do you mean you went back to unrooted? Or just a stock rom?
By the way I'm running Bean's Custom Stock Rom on VZW and it's not working. I'm guessing it's just a server issue with the activation of so many new GS3's
In advance of the Olympics, Sammy has been doing all sorts of network maintance.
Yesterday all the TV services were down.
Is this only affecting Verizon devices?
Could it be related to the updates surrounding the Siri debacle?
I highly doubt it's from the number of activations.

In my opinion, S Voice isn't terrible but it is behind Siri.
To have the home button respond faster just uncheck the 'launch S Voice by double clicking the home key' in the settings. You can also use S Voice when the phone is locked. Setup Wake up commands and you're set.

Resetting meaning factory stock.mine is not rooted. Hope it's temporary.

I thought it was related to root but I've had these hot reboots even before rooting so it's not just root. Most likely an app.

Will take a while to hunt down the app but anybody else have 'LinkedIn' app installed? It just hot rebooted while launching that app from a fresh restart - quickest hot reboot I've ever seen.
It might not be that app but then I went to the Play Store page and there are tons of 1 star reviews because the last update failed on people's phones - more interestingly the most recent comment is from a GS2 user who says latest update reboots his phone.
I've uninstalled it and I doubt I can be that lucky that it's that app and I find it so quickly but crossing my fingers.
Mine rebooted after I opened the Navigation app.

Well I'm tired of the random hot reboots! Some people say it happened to them before rooting, but I don't believe it happened to me until I rooted and installed CWM touch......so I'm going back to stock to start all over again so I can try to narrow down the issue. I'll report back on my progress as it becomes available.

Happening often to me. The search continues. I've now uninstalled adfree. I'm positive this is an app since I had it occur on stock after two weeks of using the phone and installing crap.

I had the same problem on my previous Captivate and am having it now on the GS III; no rhyme or reason to the reboots that I can see.
I still have heat problem but I played w/ different settings to see what it is.... I had att s3 which got really really hot... So returned it for Verizon s3. Verizon is better but learned that the data (lte/s3) makes it really hot and battery drain. Also the screen, of course.
If you're rooted then go get Phone info and disable lte. I tried CDMA auto for Verizon and it got much better... But at lowered download speed. I change it when I speed the speed... Doesn't require reboot so it's easy to change.
U can also under clock using setCPU.
I don't need it to be fast normally except when playing games... So just have it at 384min and 1024max... I find this helps allot w/ heat as well... U can try and find your setting that's acceptable speed and heat.
Just sharing my experience here.... So good luck.

Happens here too with the T-Mobile GS3. I think they rushed their fabrication process to deliver a high volume and fubared a few hardwarewise. I've even had it lockup/freeze once when not even in the OS but just in the recovery menu's. But yeah, the usual is a totally random unpredictable hot reboot throwing out my resident programs, homescreen, ect. Starts with the screen being frozen and not accepting input, then a short vibration, then back to homescreen reloading and all regular apps and widges that are supposed to run at boot load again. It's as if there's a micro static short or something. Anyway, I'm sick of problem solving and looking through logcats. Going back in for warranty. This is a dream phone except for this ultra annoying bug that it seems not many people have.

Happened to me once or twice (that I noticed) in the two weeks before I rooted (stock UCALEM), and a few more times after. It's just TouchPiz being pizzy. Maybe someone can catch the logcat, but there's nothing we can do about it (except install a better ROM )
How would anyone be able to diagnose this BS
"OK. My phone is hot. And it randomly reboots".
"Crap - u r out of luck buddy. Go change ur damn phone".
Provide ur phone model, ROM version, apps installed. Check ur battery stats.
As a solution - flash any custom ROM which removes bloatware.

Atrix wifi Error

Hey! My atrix started acting wired. From last few days wifi is not working. when i start the phone it works for 7-8 min than turn off and give wifi error. i did the clean installation too. i read some where that this problem can occur due to burning of wifi chip. but if its like that why it works for 7-8 mins after restart.
Does Bluetooth stop working also? If so your chip is burnt.

Fixed it for me awhile back as well. Also seen the same issue happen on my old Huawei. On that phone only restoring a ROM with a wipe fixed it. It's as though the wifi driver gets corrupted somehow on these phones.

Bluetooth too. I was having some odd behavior, so I turned bluetooth off, and then I couldn't turn it back on from any option, switch or checkbox. A factory reset fixed it. Right now, I am getting some kind of interference between by bluetooth headset and wifi....when I have both working and I am on a phone call, periodically the wifi and bluetooth would both cut off, and drop signal, and then about 1-2 seconds later would reacquire both signals.
Like I said, when I am less lazy, I will do a factory reset and see if that helps. If not, then I'll try a different bluetooth headset....

Help needed. DNA wont boot/charge

Hello,
If anyone can save me a couple hundred bucks that I dont have, I would appreciate it.
Im running an S-OFF Unlocked DNA with
This rom - http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=2141129
and this kernel - http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=2021714
I've been running it without issues for two weeks. Today it just wouldnt turn on. It doesnt accept a charge. Ive gotten the white HTC screen to come on for a second a couple times, and I've gotten it to boot up fully once. But after the screen timed out, it wouldn't come on again.
Any help would be appreciated. Dont have money to buy another phone.
I've tried searching. Most people that have boot issues can at least get to a bootloader or recovery screen. I cannot.
Have you tried letting it charge for a long while? I've heard it takes some times up to fifteen minutes for the charging led to even lit.

I personally have never opened up this phone so I wouldn't know. But this is a suggestion that worked for someone else and has also worked when my nexus 7 did a similar act. It wouldn't indicate it was charging and wouldn't turn on but disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it worked for me. I doubt it's something to do with software as you said your set up was working fine for 2 weeks. I'm pretty sure this should fix it for you.

Well, I got the battery disconnected and reconnected. Even though the battery sits under the motherboard, the battery has a thin connector that its accessible without removing anything else. It doesnt appear that my problem has been fixed. I guess I wont ever know, my screwdriver slipped off the screw and connected with a pin on the board and sparked. Pretty sure I just shorted the whole thing.

I should mention it was jtagged. Not saying that was the root cause. But the inside of the phone is definitely different than a stock one. Mobiletechvideos.com put a different film on it than the one it came with. Any chance of warranty or insurance is out.
You can still try to claim it. Most of the time they aren't looking inside the phone. Though this really isn't your fault. It sounds like the hardware failed and that is why it wouldn't charge and boot. But we won't know now. I don't know how jtag works but it could have contributed to it.

Just to add my 2 cents,
I have sent back phones to verizon and asurion for issues and every phone except one was rooted and never had an issue. I even traded in my thunderboolt towards the dna when it came out (they offered me $72.00) and all i did was uninstall superuser/busybox & titanium backup right in front of the rep and my fiance then handed it right to the guy on the spot. He turned it on, made sure the touch screen worked & then said ok, you get full trade in price.
As for the other phones that I sent in, droid eris, incredible and 2 samsung, all with one issue or another, never once did they charge me or call or anything. Got the new phone next day, sent the old one in and thats it. I have never had an issue.
Now I know this may not have happened for every one but I think if you just send it in via mail and not have an instore rep look at it, you will never have an issue. I think if an in store rep sees an issue and realize its rooted, they may flag it in case it goes in for verizon replacement or asurion replacement but just a normal send in should not cause an issue.

[Q] Help please, phone has service and is activated but won't place or recieve calls

Hello all, this is my first technical question at xda. I usually don't have problems as i never dirty flash and generally use caution when doing things.
My i605 randomly shut off today and was unresponsive. After a few battery pulls i was able to boot it back up. The phone would not call or text, even though the signal bars showed normal. Right away i flashed a new ROM after 3 full wipes and the dalvik cache wiped. The phone activated on my number right away and showed normal signal, but won't call or text. I updated the modem to the latest 5/3, still no luck. Suspecting it was my SIM card, i tried it in another device and the SIM works fine. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this or anything i should try before reverting to completely stock?
Thanks everyone!

I gave it a go, but with no luck. Thanks for the help though friend! I am in the process of restoring to stock.. If that doesn't work i will have to get a replacement :/

Keep us updated, this is something I haven't heard of that wasn't easily fixed by going back to your previous stock nandroid or by reflashing the ROM....

Well I went back to stock with no success. I have sent off for a replacement. I suppose the hardware was simply defective. It was just strange, as occasionally i could receive SMS and 3/4G but nothing else. Thanks everyone for your advice!

What were you doing when the phone locked up on you?
Did you notice any over heating, screen problems, lag. ETC.
What kind of case if any do you have on your NOTE 2.
What were atmospheric conditions (as this may have trapped moisture inside affecting the antenna)

I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary really. No case, and i never keep my phone with me if moisture is around. (rain, sweat, etc.) My phone was on when i was driving to work, when i arrived it was off and unresponsive for a few minutes. I've only experienced maybe 2 or 3 reboots since I've had the phone, pretty much since launch.
I hadn't updated the radio/modem ever though. I don't know if this had anything to do with it.

You should have still been able to get service, this is really really odd......

Thanks everyone for the tips. Several things that i wouldn't have thought of myself. I received my replacement and all is well at this time. I suppose i'll go at least a few months before unlocking again :/ Not that i think that had anything to do with the problem. oh well. Thanks again everyone!

I'm glad that everything is working for you on the replacement. If I were you I wouldn't wait to unlock though. Sammy is pushing an update, at least thru the VZW computer app, that may block our current boot loader exploit and may make it un-unlockable.
