I always have 3G on. At work I have bad reception usually 2 pins coverage like I have right now. It's been 5½ hours since I took it from the charger and I have 94% left on battery. One quick call and two text messages is the only thing I have done.

Still way worse than my Android phone but I think mine is on par with what the Lumia can do regarding battery life. But both standby and usage seems to dry it out much faster than my previous Android which had fantastic battery life compared to the Lumia.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
After 5 hours off the charger and even having full reception I'd be at least 16-20% down :/ guess mine really is faulty
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Nah, mine would be the same...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
Its absolutely insane how the same model is acting completely different from one user to another with similar usage :/ at least if mine charges up that final 15% i can get another couple of hours out of it
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Because different users will have different configurations. You might have a similar usage pattern to someone, but you might have no Facebook/Twitter and one email syncing. Someone else can have FB, Twitter & three email accounts + weather apps etc.

All adds up.

[Nokia Lumia 800] dk_iceman:
why even have a smartphone.. with these settings ?? do you have limited power where you live:)
[Nokia Lumia 800] Venstar:
Anyone knows what the HSDPA & USB hub does???

I've switched on the HSDPA and everytime I check I have the "H" next to the signal bars. Would that use more battery?

I'm Trying to connect my Lumia to Nokia Care Suite 5.0 (the newest), but i have two problems...

1. it cannot find the driver to RM-801 and i tried to point to the driver folder in Nokia Connection and Nokia Care Suite folders but still won't install driver ??

can somebody direct me to the right driver ?

2. when Nokia Care Suite is running on the pc and i connect or disconnect the Lumia 800, it vibrates and reboots ?? is that normal ? it's only when Nokia Care suite runs ?
[Nokia Lumia 800] dmbardal:
I just bought my Lumia 800 (Norway),

I allready had the 11501 installed.
[Nokia Lumia 800] anseio:
Navigate to:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Drivers

and run:

WinUSB Drivers x64 or x86 depending on your OS.

that's what I had to do and it worked immediately.
[Nokia Lumia 800] dk_iceman:
thanks now it finds my Lumia but the only thing i can choose is PROGRAMS and under that Refurbish, but Change product code i can not choose
[Nokia Lumia 800] anseio:
To my knowledge, you cannot change the product code.
[Nokia Lumia 800] hkkla:
Me too, bought it retail in Sweden but on the box language is in german, it was also german when i first started it up. Bought it in a store called Netonnet.

On swedish Nokia webpage they say this version, 1600.2483.8106.11500, is the latest. Checked now and the german site says the same.

I have firmwareversion 1600.2483.8107.11501 and Windowsversion 7.10.8107.79 out of the box.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
1. Data Package Manager

2. Don't think it's rolling out to users yet.
[Nokia Lumia 800] namtrac:
Thanks a lot!
[Nokia Lumia 800] Radek Hulán:
Tried UK and Swiss unbranded FW, and they do not offer Wifi tethering :( (at least with my O2 CZ SIM card)
[Nokia Lumia 800] lacion:
it seens i cant get DataPackageManager to work, it just says conecting at the splash screen and it never moves from there no error nothing at all.

.....

got it to work, i'm trying to flash now.

already flashed, aweson battery is at 1500 for the first time. (i did not debranded i installed the 501 from my provider with the same product code as my phone.)
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
1500mAh or just below?

I flashed and it charges up to 1477mAh (max capacity)...
[Nokia Lumia 800] fshqbizfs:
The real battery capacity, from nokia specs, is 1480.

So it's normal that a number between 1477-1479mAh is showed, mine shows 1478.
[Nokia Lumia 800] xvx45:
mine show 1514mAh for Full Charge Capacity on 11451 firmaware... but I want anyway to flash the last firmware. I've got a workjng installation of Nokia care 5 software. My phone is alse recognized as Lumia800...but I don't find any tut' about Lumia flashing... any one have a quick how to ?

Regards,
[Nokia Lumia 800] lacion:
mine shows 1478 i was just wounding up, before the update it never went up from 1250
[Nokia Lumia 800] lerameur:
Check on the other post about firmware

I can't connect anymore on DPN!! Is someone able to connect?
[Nokia Lumia 800] AndyD777:
Updated without any problems, it would be nice if we could get the upgrade option on the Nokia Care Suite.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Yeah it would, I'd rather wait than rebuild my phone.
[Nokia Lumia 800] namtrac:
I installed Nokia Care Suite, but all options except "Type Label Printing" is disabled. Any idea what might be the problem?
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
Hi,

does using NCS to flash wipe your phone?

also can anyone confirm if the battery drains less with 3g on now? and how about sound / camera? thanks :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] sgsdebruijn:
Problem with downloading software with the Data Package Manager .50 version won´t startup and is trying to connect to server, .35 version starts but

what to fill in by Producttype and Productcode, tried differend things but on search it gives an error `Error while retrieving a list of variant packages`
[Nokia Lumia 800] djtonka:
Yes. Process removes all user data and settings.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
Thank you, re-flashed enough when I first got the phone, might wait. I already updated to 8107... wonder if that will break it. either way, it will be interesting to see how poeple think the battery performance has improved
[Nokia Lumia 800] sgsdebruijn:
Installed the .50 version for the 4th time and after a couple of minutes it now starts
[Nokia Lumia 800] AndyD777:
One weird thing I have noticed.

In the brightness setting, when you have low or automatically adjust the back, windows and search keys are illuminated.

However, when set to medium or high these keys are not illuminated.

Is everyone elses phone like this?
[Nokia Lumia 800] djtonka:
You right, on auto mode keys backlight is off.
[Nokia Lumia 800] lerameur:
Okay, DPM is now working!!

No french carrier version ATM
[Nokia Lumia 800] Itaintrite:
Does anybody know why I don't see anything in the middle panel of Caresuite? And all the sidebar buttons are greyed out?

The phone is detected properly and I've renamed the files to the correct product code too.
[Nokia Lumia 800] namtrac:
Make sure you have the 5.0.0 (2011.51.2) version of the NCS.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Itaintrite:
Oh, this might be it. I thought I had the latest from seidea. Thanks, downloading newer version now.

Update: that fixed it. Thanks!
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
I flashed earlier today and have been using it for about 8 hours or so. One thing I have noticed is that when you push the power button (after the screen is locked and gone to standby), the backlight no longer goes to full brightness first. It lights up at the correct brightness (whatever is set in the options) straight away :)

Yup, I have this too. I guess they figured that if you are using medium/high brightness setting, the ambient light must be bright enough for you to see the buttons without the light shining behind them...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Fisher_9511:
Good news, just have to wait for a french variant.
[Nokia Lumia 800] lerameur:
For people who flashed their phone .. Is there WiFi thetering?
[Nokia Lumia 800] djtonka:
There is no thetering after update.
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
How is the battery performance with this update?
[Nokia Lumia 800] djtonka:
Capacity from 100% to 90% is dropping quickly about 20min
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
... what kind of usage?
[Nokia Lumia 800] djtonka:
I made one call and spent 12 minutes online over HSDPA
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Seems this update is not as good we hope http://www.mobiletechworld.com/2012...a-800-firmware-update-doesnt-fix-most-issues/
[Nokia Lumia 800] lacion:
odd my feeling is that battery live is almost double as before, i done 75mintues of calls, and its been a crazy day with email so a bunch of data.

my battery is at 70% before this update after a usage like that my battery will be at 50some% or less.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
is that 3g calls/data or gprs?
[Nokia Lumia 800] irdawood:
Hi in Nokia Care Suite i try to flash ( ihave changed the product codes on the files to match device) but it says during the flash after it restarts the phone that it 'cannot change the mode' ???

Any idea?
[Nokia Lumia 800] VoodooKing:
So this one guy who is having a problem with his Lumia says thumbs down because of his issue? Frankly, its the first time I've heard of his problem.
[Nokia Lumia 800] MichelLoyen:
@VoodooKing My thoughts exactly! I'v had my Lumia since december 2011 now...and never experienced the mentioned issue once. It's always possible the writer of mobiletechworld has a faulty device (which happens to al manufacturers). In stead of writing several negative posts (i know he has because i read his posts regulary) he should get his unit replaced. I'm sure this won't be a problem because his device shows obvious issues.
[Nokia Lumia 800] irdawood:
I keep getting this error when trying to connect device when in flash mode
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Very good news! :cool:

thanks to keep us informed about your results :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] Itaintrite:
Is it just me and the placebo effect or does charging the phone actually takes longer too? o.o But definitely huge improvement. Before update, phone lasted 5-6hours with slighly higher than normal use for me... Now it's still at 70% after 13 hours of idling and some internet use now and then.
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
If the capacity to charge is larger seems normal that you spend more time to charge it? :D
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Yep, I would expect that
[Nokia Lumia 800] djtonka:
Do not press OK on the screen during process.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Itaintrite:
Oh, so the capacity is actually changed and not just a fix for some battery draining bug? Then yes, that would make sense :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Yes. The battery should have ~100mAh more with this update.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Seraphic:
Battery life is definitely better. I couldn't make it through a day with my usage previously, battery saver hasn't kicked in yet and I would have had to charge by now.
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
Giving up.. tried several mirror sites and keep getting "download interrupted" :B
[Nokia Lumia 800] flya:
Did you try to disable lockscreen pin or sim pin before flashing?
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Second Update For Nokia Lumia 800 Rolling Out Next Week

"This update will include no.of charging related (high voltage charging), power optimizations and some performance related updates that will further push your Lumia 800 usage. Also the default camera mode in Lumia 800 will be changed from Macro to Normal mode."

Some can confirm the changes of the camera? :confused:
[Nokia Lumia 800] Radek Hulán:
Default is still Macro mode.
[Nokia Lumia 800] lacion:
3g

i ended the day with 20% battery and no batery saving mode.

thats new to me, before with that kinda usage i had to recharge midday.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
thats excellent news, as I was in exactly the same boat
[Nokia Lumia 800] kevinsaint:
It's awesome news.......

I cannot wait......

Hope it can release ASAP
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
If the part about the camera is true, then we should expect ANOTHER update (aside from this 11501 firmware update), because I have flashed with this new firmware and it is still defaulting to Macro mode...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Why is the camera thing a big deal anyway? Set it to normal, hit save, never worry about it again.
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
It's not a big deal. However, I'm picking up on the fact that this update hasn't changed this, and so that left me wondering whether another update (aside from this new 11501 firmware) is on the way...
[Nokia Lumia 800] apollo15rover:
I agree.

But I wish they'd correct the white balance for indoor, non-flash. Outdoors daytime, this phone camera is one of the best; indoors; opposite..
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
flashed this firmware yesterday, first charge up to 1480, was really happy.

today, come to charge, says full charge is 1230 - what the hell?!! I'm charging it now, hopefully that number increases.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Could always try a bump charge... charge to full, unplug, turn off phone, plug in again.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
maybe, but pre-firmware it charged up to 1360 no problems, now its worse?!

one of the reasons we're on windows phone is that we shouldnt have to do the old turn it off and on again trick

sad face.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Elpibe:
Will this update enable Internet Sharing?
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Seems not :(
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
I have the same issue :(

I flashed the firmware a couple of days ago and the charging was working as it should (I could get up to 1477mAh). However, now it will not get any higher than 1360mAh.

What is going on?? Really don't understand why it seems to have "lost" 110mAh... o.O
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Shutdown the phone. Connect on USB. Push the power button and wait for the phone vibrates to release.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
unfortunately that made no difference

also reflashed, and doesnt even do 1480 now wtf nokia :(
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Just tried that. Didn't work. Full charge capacity is now showing as 1350mAh... So strange as it was 1477mAh the other day!

---------- Post added at 02:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

Do you think we have faulty hardware?

I'm just wondering now whether this firmware isn't the update that is meant to be coming out from Nokia in the next few days...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
both could be a possibility, mine shows 1260, grrrrr may see if it improves over the next few days.
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Yeah, my "Full Charge Capacity" slowly keeps dropping as the actual remaining battery charge is used up.

I wonder if flashing to the cyan variant would do anything...?
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
I don't think so. Maybe it's not the good firmware or something should be made after flash?
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
once the UK carrier ones are released on Zune in going to flash to the original release software and upgrade through all in Zune.. Unless we get confirmation that there are furtyher battery updates on the way
[Nokia Lumia 800] Devian:
I keep getting that my pc doesnt recognize my lumia 800 when it's in serial mode.

Only getting the 4 Rm-801|Nokia Lumia 800 in my device manager.

I tried switching from usb port

I tried installing the drivers manual

I even tried pointing windows manually to the drivers, they install with an warning, but doesnt work.

Anyone with some tips?

Also tried another pc, but there Microsoft VC+ wont install..... aargh!

Really want to push the new FW to it.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
In the Nokia folder in Program Files you'll find a driver folder...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Devian:
I know... already tried it.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
But did you just point the driver wizard at it, or run one of the exes?
[Nokia Lumia 800] Itaintrite:
My full charge capacity is still at 1424mAh after a couple of days on 11501. Maybe these firmwares do differ after all?
[Nokia Lumia 800] Cyberjack:
It might take a few cycles until full capacity is reached. Otherwise let the phone discharge itself until it switches off. Then connect the charger and let it charge to 100% and give it some extra time at 100%. Doing this should regain full capacity, it might be possible to do this twice.

Attention: This applies ONLY to .11501, as previous versions might prevent getting the phone recharged when it's fully discharged.

Remember always to use the original charger from the box. With other chargers the current might be to low and the battery won't get full. Also don't use USB from a computer, here is also sufficent current to fully charge the Lumia.

Jack

EDIT: Version rolled out via Zune might be .8106.11500 but no worries, it's identical to .8107.11501.

Nokia flashes in production and service .11501, customers get via Zune .11500
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
I flashed my phone and it was at 1477mAh for a day or two. Now it has started to go down. It isn't to do with charge cycles... Thanks though :)

EDIT: Full Charge Capacity on my Lumia is now at 1333mAh, with 11501 flashed for a couple of days.
[Nokia Lumia 800] ricky119:
flashed to 11501, and get the full charge capacity from 1250 to 1370, still 100mh left:mad:
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Thanks for these informations but where them come from? :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
charged mine from the Nokia charger last night, full charge capacity is now 1191. This is seriously worrying me. Now in almost 300mAh less!
[Nokia Lumia 800] mickfarr:
This firmware doesn't look like the one that's being released this week. The biggest giveaway is that Nokia have fixed the macro setting in the camera. This firmware doesn't fix that, wait a coupe of days and install the correct firmware.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Devian:
I did both. I ran the exe/msi... and i extracted the msi file and pointed manually to the driver. (WinUSB Drivers x86)
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Yeah, that's what I said yesterday. I guess we'll have to wait and see...

Devian, I flashed my phone in Zune mode, not Serial mode. I also couldn't get it to recognise the basic phone info, so used a different computer altogether and it worked. Hope that helps.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
FYI - just tried this, 1192 as the max charge capacity after this :/

hope people are right about a new firmware, but TBH guys, this was given out to someone recently:

http://www.wpcentral.com/nokia-playing-newer-os-builds-lumia-900-and-800-photo

same firmware as us i think :(
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
That's an 11 day old article, enough time for things to have changed, you never know.
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Woke up today and Full Charge Capacity reported as 1298mAh :( I can take the charger out, replug it back in and it'll start charging again, but can't get it past 1338mAh.

I hoping that the update isn't the same firmware, but only time will tell. If it is the same, I'm going to get the phone exchanged for a new one :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] mickfarr:
That doesn't mean anything only that he's running a newer firmware. Lots of firmwares get created when fixing bugs and given a revision number and then installed on a phone for testing.
[Nokia Lumia 800] AndyD777:
On a full charge mines going to 1445mAh now and its been like that for just over a week now.
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Is this with the cyan variant of 11501? I was thinking about perhaps flashing that one (I have a black one) to see whether it's any better...
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
Check file sizes/MD5s, you might find the Cyan update is no different.
[Nokia Lumia 800] AndyD777:
Yes mines the Cyan firmware.
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Which product code?
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
The cyan variant is different in size. You can see in Nokia Data Package Manager: black is 403.98MB and cyan is 403.97MB.

Granted, that's only 0.01MB but this does indicate that there is a difference somewhere... I think I'm going to flash it and try it out.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
im out travelling currently but will be back with just enough time to flash before bed and back out to work again, if you could report back that would be awesome :D
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Will let you know how I get on mate!
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
It's probably even less, as DPM is rounding it ;)
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
The total difference is 7KB :p

I just tried flashing the cyan firmware but it ended right near the beginning of the flashing stage. Said: "Error: No response received! Unable to verify respone."

I swapped out the product code for my product code in the firmware files. I did notice there are other filename differences. Should I rename them completely to match the black firmware files?

Have to say, it worried me a little bit. Thought I was going to end up with a bricked phone :o

---------- Post added at 06:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

Ok, so out of fear for bricking my phone I'm not going to attempt a second flash of the cyan firmware...

Jragar: if you give it a go, let me know the result.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Devian:
Yes, zune mode did work... i'm a little bit further now..

I select the data package (is gets recognized by refreshing)... i can start the flash, the phone reboots but then i get the message to push and hold the vol up key and press ok. I do that, but nothing happens. After a minute or so the messages comes that it isnt able to change the ***** mode, or something like that.

When i unplug my phone, i can boot it normally, nothing has changed.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
I think you're right about the bricking, I dont have time to fix it if I get it wrong and I need a phone for the next week

may have a go at it if I get ample time. cheers for having a crack though!
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Yeah, I got the phone less than a month ago and I don't know enough about this flashing business to be messing around with files and stuff. I'm patient enough to wait for the update next week.

If it's the same version number, I'm going to downgrade to 11451, then update through Zune. If I still have the same issues, I'll take it back to Nokia. :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
my thoughts exactly. ill have to do without a phone for a little while, but if they can sort it then its worth it.
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
I thought they would do an on-the-spot exchange??
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
I guess it depends how long it takes them to confirm its broken /shrug
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
More firmware on NaviFirm today. Seems the release is imminent... :)

Nokia french versions are out, so we'll soon see our carriers versions.. :D
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
059L704: RM-801 Vodafone UK GB VAR203600 Contract Black V3

will flash this tonight and see if it makes any different at all regarding the battery issues.

i dont see any reason for any differences other than accent etc though
[Nokia Lumia 800] Rusty!:
It'll probably gain you a 'nice' Voda splash screen at least.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
yay :-|

gotta say they really should've made it on a black background, it looks rubbish
[Nokia Lumia 800] drx64:
That's a good news. :D
[Nokia Lumia 800] ricky119:
I'm still looking forward to see any OEM firmware can enabled the "Internet sharing" feature
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
I think this feature will be in next release... :(
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
So did you flash it then? Still have issues with the battery??
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jragar:
Hey bud, I'm still at work at the moment, I'll be arriving home sometime after 6pm, I'll give it a shot then
[Nokia Lumia 800] tjramage:
Awesome. Quite eager to know your results.

Called my local care point today, the bloke wasn't completely clear about whether I can get a replacement or not. He just said to wait for the update. Really hoping it isn't 11501, although I've a feeling it is....
[Nokia Lumia 800] MickyMax:
Just flashed my french Lumia this morning. The battery is full at 1480 mA. Let's see if it's working as expect.
[Nokia Lumia 800] medfrancky:
keep us posted.

Do you have the battery issue ?
[Nokia Lumia 800] lerameur:
SFR version is out!!

I'm flashing right now.
