Lumia 900 data connectivity fix finally available to Rogers customers

Lumia 900 data connectivity fix finally available to Rogers customers

Posted on Apr 24, 2012 by MG3

When the Lumia 900 data connectivity fix was released to AT&T customers a full 3 days early, it was presumed that Rogers customers would have access to the fix at the same time. Unfortunately, they were informed that they would have to wait until “around April 20th” to get the update.
It looks like that update is finally available to our friends to the north, albeit a little late. Rogers customers can download and install the update through the Zune software on Windows or the Windows Phone 7 Connector app on OS X.

Can the Nokia Lumia 900 reinvent the Nokia brand to what it once was?

Can the Nokia Lumia 900 reinvent the Nokia brand to what it once was?

Posted on Apr 20, 2012 by MG1

We've been Nokia fans for a long time, but it has been a rough few years for the Finnish company. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, Nokia dominated the US and global market share. We all remember the Nokia 5100 and 6100 series, one of the company's most popular phones ever. And who could forget the Nokia 8110, featured in the hit film The Matrix?
In 2002, Research In Motion, the maker of BlackBerry, began to get more aggressive with their smartphone marketing, and had the insight to attack the business and government sectors. This strategy paid off for them as RIM began to erode Nokia's stronghold in the industry.

Quite the graceful recovery, indeed.

Some Nokia Lumia 900 units are having network connection issues

Some Nokia Lumia 900 units are having network connection issues

Posted on Apr 10, 2012 by MG1

So, the Nokia Lumia 900 has landed to much fanfare, and many of the AT&T customers who ordered the smartphone in advance should have already received it. However, a percentage of these pre-ordered units appear to be plagued by a glitch that prevents them from connecting to a data network, be it 2G, 3G, or 4G LTE.
The issue is already being discussed on multiple online communities, including the Nokia Support Discussions and XDA-Developers, and a tipster of ours, who claims to be an AT&T employee, has confirmed that the problem is real indeed. "These devices were mass produced in a plant in mexico and there is a defect with the imei's registering to the data network on 2g, 3g and 4g data", sa...

Walmart Nokia Lumia 900s now shipping

Walmart Nokia Lumia 900s now shipping

Posted on Apr 10, 2012 by MG1

Its pretty annoying when you pre-order a phone and it arrives after it becomes available in stores. While AT&T buyers did not have this problem, and in fact had their handsets 2 days before general availability Amazon handsets only shipped today, suggesting arrival tomorrow.
Good news for buyers at WalMart, where the handset was also selling at extremely low prices, is that their phones are now also on the way, shipping from Texas. Hopefully they will also show up on your doorstep early tomorrow.

AT&T promotes Nokia Lumia 900 launch with huge signs; phone available in stores today

Posted on Apr 09, 2012 by MG1

With the Windows Phone flagship Nokia Lumia 900 getting launched on Easter Sunday, the device will actually be first available in AT&T corporate stores on Monday. To let everyone in the States know that the device is available, AT&T has put up some major signage inside its stores. One gentleman told WPCentral that he drove past three of AT&T's corporate stores in Long Island and each had huge Nokia Lumia 900 banners hanging from the ceiling that could be easily spotted from the road. It looks like the tag line for AT&T's campaign will be "Beautifully different".
Inside the stores there will be an area where you can test out the Nokia Lumia 900 and the HTC Titan II. The latter, as we already ...

Nokia Lumia 900 also available for pre-order at Rogers Canada

Posted on Apr 02, 2012 by MG1

All the Nokia Lumia 900 fun is not just to be had on AT&T in USA. The Nokia Lumia 900 is also coming to Rogers Canada, and the handset actually became available on pre-order there first.
The handset is available there for $99 on a three year contract, and will also be $450 unlocked (which would to me seem to be the better option).

Nokia Lumia 900 on AT&T to support Visual Voicemail, but other Windows Phone users may not get it

Nokia Lumia 900 on AT&T to support Visual Voicemail, but other Windows Phone users may not get it

Posted on Mar 26, 2012 by MG1

As we fully expected, the comments on our recent post about AT&T's apparent decision to not push out the lastest bugfix version of Windows Phone, 8107, have expressed a good deal of unhappiness. However, one comment in particular caught our eye, from scrapplejoe, which points out a thread at neogaf suggesting Visual Voicemail is present on the Lumia 900. In fact, there's an even deeper backstory involving a method of forced updating and clever data plan switching first discovered at xda-developers, with which it's possible to get Visual Voicemail working on a Nokia Lumia 800, Focus Flash, or even other devices on AT&T. The trick primarily requires two things: enabling a 4G LTE plan on AT&T (...

Rumor: AT&T to launch the Nokia Lumia 900 on April 8th?

Rumor: AT&T to launch the Nokia Lumia 900 on April 8th?

Posted on Mar 15, 2012 by MG3

Nokia’s flagship Windows Phone, the Lumia 900, was announced at the Consumer Electronics Show back in January of this year. AT&T said they would offer it, but they failed to mention when it would actually hit store shelves or say how much it’s going to cost. Here we are, two months later, and we still don’t have those details. Earlier rumors suggested it would come out on the 18th of March, which is this coming Sunday, but now there’s word on the street that an April 8th launch date is more likely. This information comes from someone who claims to be an employee at one of AT&T’s retail stores in California.

Nokia Lumia 900 release date now supposedly set for April 8

Nokia Lumia 900 release date now supposedly set for April 8

Posted on Mar 15, 2012 by MG3

Hope you have those salt shakers nearby as it is time for another dose of rumors. This time, it is the Nokia Lumia 900 release date that is being speculated with. Last time when we heard anything regarding the device's launch was only a day ago when an insider said that the smartphone will be delayed in the U.S. and that it would launch on April 22.
Today, however, we have sources for The Verge claiming that the Nokia Lumia 900 for AT&T will be released on April 8. The tipster presents himself as an assistant manager at an AT&T store somewhere in California. Furthermore, he mentions that a demo unit has already been delivered to the store, and he appears to be very satisfied with it. As far ...

Nokia Lumia 900 sport adventure promo videos appear as release date looms closer

Nokia Lumia 900 sport adventure promo videos appear as release date looms closer

Posted on Mar 15, 2012 by MG3

Nokia has put a lot of hope and effort into the AT&T-bound Lumia 900 - the first high-end Nokia Windows Phone handset to hit American shores with LTE and now we know the release date - April 8th. This coincides with talk about Microsoft Stores getting the handset in the second week of April. The Lumia 900 is expected to come with a tempting price tag of merely $99 on contract.
The Nokia Lumia 900 launch is expected to be big with some promos going on like gift cards for apps offered along with the phone. It’s possible that Microsoft backs it up by in some way bundling the phone with an XBOX 360. Similarly, the Lumia 800 was sold with a free XBOX 360 in the UK.
