Unfortunately I can't help with this, however my sister has just emailed me to say her Lumia 800 ran flat and now won't boot past the Orange logo either. She had updated to 7.8 a few days ago. Possibly connected...

This happened to me last night on my Lumia 800. I listened and saved it and it still showed up. Rang up again and it said no new voicemails. I had to delete the voicemail for it to disappear. I know that doesn't really help you but I have had issues with it.... On a similar note I had the same...

Me and my sister both have RM801 Lumias with the same bug. It's known and is fixed by 12072. 12072 was apparently only delivered to Vodafone devices however. So expect the fix to be rolled into the Tango update soon.

No. It worked fine on my Omnia 7 for 18months. I guess there is just a server problem with Microsoft at the moment. Sometimes they arrive on time. Other times theyre delayed up to an hour.

Yeh the Omnia 7 was nice (even though mine had a really crippling data problem). I thought I would miss the larger screen but I really haven't noticed it. I have pretty small hands too so this has been really nice to use! The 900 was just too big for my tastes.

Yup, I guessed Tango would be here soon. Hoping all the bugs will be ironed out in that. In fairness the battery life is better than my Omnia 7 and the camera also seems better so at least those two initial bugs don't seem to affect me. Otherwise it's a stunning device. It's so much nicer to...

Ah right, interesting. To be honest the volume bug I can live with for now. My phone stays on silent at work anyway. It's just the call end one... I'll see how it goes and if it persists I'll get it changed.

Thanks for the info. I guessed the battery might be something to do with that. The one I'm most worried by is the call not ending as that was supposed to have been fixed some time ago. Is 12072FW meant to be out to everyone? Or is it just Orange UK being really slow with the updates again? (My...

I've been having this problem with hotmail for a few weeks now. It happened on my Omnia 7 and it is happening on my new Lumia 800 as well after upgrading.

Well I've had my Lumia for 3 days now. First 2 days were fine then today seems to have brought to light a load of bugs. It arrived pre-loaded with 12070 rev software and plugging into zune says im currently up to date. 1) When listening to music over headphones and I receive a text, the music...

Me and my Sister got Omnia 7s on launch in Nov 2010. I've just ordered a Lumia 800 as an upgrade and I think she's gonna do the same. So then our Omnias will go to the parents I think.

Some months ago there was a maps update, I believe it started using Nokia map data for places outside of the USA. It's pretty good now.

It's silly really, the only thing that is putting me off getting the 800 is the fact it came out in November and it seems like an old device now!

Right, well I went into a Phones4u today as they now have them in-store and had a play. It is very nice, however it seemed like the scroll speed of the screen was pretty slow and it was quite off-putting. Also with my baby small hands i think it really is too big. I couldn't reach all the...

Due an upgrade now. It's gonna be the 800 or 900. Need to hold a 900 for myself before making the decision, have a feeling it's gonna feel too big.

Thanks for the info. I always remember disliking the S2 for it's size. Me and my baby hands!

Thanks for the insight mate. My contract is now up so I'm overdue and upgrade for my Omnia 7.... Can't be bothered waiting 6 months for Apollo so it's either the 800 or 900 for me. Being in the UK I've only had a play with the 800 and absolutely loved it. Loved how solid it felt and the size...

Done and they've posted it :)

Whilst nothing has been announced yet, I did just stumble across this help page on the Orange UK website... http://help.orange.co.uk/orangeuk/support/personal/693257 I know carriers have slipped up in the past by posting these pages early... Here's hoping! My contract ran out the end of April...

Go for the 900. Nokia care about their users and are implementing fixes for bugs when needed. And besides I'm sure I read that Samsung are dis-continuing the Focus S anyway... Yeh From WPCentral. "Oh and before we close out, we're also told that the HTC TITAN and Samsung Focus S are to be put...

Hmm - I've heard of a few issues with Nokias but most are software related and fixed with the updates. Mine is an Omnia 7 - I'm now on a replacement handset. Below is a summary of some of the issues i've had. I've got a thread on MS answers regarding the data issue that is the most discussed...

I'm on Orange UK and opted into this ages ago. As far as I can tell it's a load of rubbish and doesn't work properly. In my flat I get low GPRS with Orange. If i force it to T-Mobile I get full 3G. However the roaming defaults to Orange and so I'm stuck with GPRS and poor reception. In...

How is it a risk buying Nokia? My Samsung Omnia has been trouble since I had it and Samsung don't give a damn. At least Nokia are supporting the platform.

This may be a stupid question, but is there a built in microphone so you can use them for hands-free calling too?

Ah fair dos :) Never compared one side by side

I've never had an issue with the pentile display and I also read a lot on mine using the kindle app for example.

I have had an Omnia 7 since November 2010 - It's been great but I've had terrible network troubles since the Mango update. I'm now due an upgrade and I think I will be going for the Lumia 800. I was going to wait for the 900 but I really don't think I'd want anything bigger than the Omnia 7...

Nothing on Orange UK - Still on 7740. Since it's now this "everything everywhere" same company thing.

Seems like what has been touted on a few places lately. All devices to get the update - only the hardware inside your device will limit the functionality you recieve.

Currently facing the same dilema. I'm due an upgrade on Orange to replace my Omnia 7. Personally I don't care about a FFC so that isn't a selling point for me on the 900. I do think however the Omnia 7 is as big as I'd want to go at 4". Having used Galaxy S2s i find that to be possibly too...

Hey yeh I had tried that as well to no avail. I tried it with data roaming on and off and it makes no difference either. That MS answers thread is now the most discussed un-answered problem on the whole site.

I've had issues with this for months. In fact since upgrading to Mango. It's not hardware as I now have a warranty replacement and this one has the problem too. My sister also had hers replaced under warranty for the same issue and the issue remains for hers too. I started a MS Answers thread...

Same here. Orange UK - Still on 7740. Orange have been poor with updates. Shame really... I couldn't look at other networks though as Orange have by far the best deals available and do stock a decent range of WP7 handsets.

Does this thread sound the same... http://forums.wpcentral.com/omnia-7/187407.htm ? Don't know if this will help... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2547687

I found the official Twitter client to be very unstable. I had lots of errors whilst using it. I now use the Birdsong client. It seems much better and is very stable.

I wasn't aware that Orange had released the Internet Sharing update... I am still on pretty old firmware on my stock Orange UK Omnia 7. Annoying since they haven't even released the keyboard fix either.

Guys... if you have the problem could you please do me a favour and mark it at.. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphone/forum/wp7-wppics/data-connection-problem-since-mango-update/1544a63f-7bf0-43fa-837c-7e89f10b86ab I have had a thread open there since october and so far quite a few...

Mine was slightly different. It only worked when WiFi was turned ON. It didn't work if WiFi was OFF.

Same as me - Flicking flight mode on-off doesn't solve it, needs a soft-reset. Like I say, there are quite a few with Omnias on Orange with this problem. I'm in the same boat, I've had this for months now so I guess I'll just deal with it until I can upgrade the start of April and get a Lumia...

My problem got worse with the Mango update. I'm now on my 2nd handset after having a replacement from Orange warranty. This one still loses it's connection but much less frequently. TBH i don't think it will ever get fixed. I started an MS Answers thread months ago and lots of people had the...

I don't think it's hardware failure... rather incompatability. My 1st Omnia worked perfectly until Mango. After I updated it my data connection stopped working right as did my Bluetooth. It was the same on 7720 and 7740. My replacement Omnia on 7740 works fine... It seems odd that hardware...

Does your Omnia find other devices? Omnias are notoriously bad for having faulty Bluetooth. My first one stopped working properly. Replacement is fine. In the Omnia 7 section there are quite a few people who've reported it.

I did a hard reset, OS update and then a handset replacement and the problem is still there. I'm convinced it's a fault with the actual battery.

Software version?

My first Omnia did this. I've jsut had it replace under warranty for something else and my new one doesn't do it. It was annoying I agree.

Haha this is so true :) I just hope it appears before my contract renewal

I'm now on my second Omnia after a warranty replacement for the data connection problem. New phone - 1) It still loses the data connection, although much less frequently than before. 2) Dark photos i think are now working properly 3) Battery meter still messes up. Must be a fault with the...

There was a map on the nokia website detailing what phones were goign where. Basically in the UK we are only getting the 710 and 800. It is disappointing as I am due an upgrade in April and whilst the 800 seems the most likely upgrade prospect there is nothing that really stands head and...

Just on this... How important are the backups really? As when a new update comes out the backup step comes before any installation. It's like.. step 5 or something? before rebooting then installing. Reason I ask is I had a warranty replacement phone over xmas whilst at the parents place and...

Has there been any news if this is going to be an international device? I'm due an upgrade here in the UK soon and this would be my device of choice if possible... I'd feel a little cheated if I only had the 800 option open to me :( ---------- Post added at 08:21 AM ---------- Previous post...
