    And my phone is back to freezing again. Just when I thought it was fixed it comes back. No Biggie. Screen off and on again, sorted.

    Any particular pattern to this? Ie, is it truly a frozen screen (no Home buttons or gesture control response) or a particular frozen app? Eg sometimes while browsing the web it seemed to me the screen had frozen but in fact the webpage had frozen and I could swipe Chrome off.


    Otherwise try rebooting into Safe Mode (hold the Power button, then press & hold the onscreen Power off symbol for the safe mode dialogue) to see if disabling apps improves the behaviour - if it does, restart and delete apps in reverse installation order, and/or Factory Reset (back everything up to Drive first) then incrementally restore your apps until you identify the one(s) causing the issue.



    Other steps described here, including checking remaining storage space, etc:

    After that you could be be looking at potential hardware causes - you can check your warranty status and kick off a Nokia Support Chat session & RMA directions from the My Phone app.

    My work phone is a Nokia 7 plus has Intune on it as the work management profile,

    However since an 10.0 update my god the lag on this phone isn’t even funny, I only use it for emails and teams and it’s pointless you start to type a email and the thing just freezes ha,

    So is a factory restart worth it ? Will this fix anything ? As to remove it from intune is a pain,

    Or should I just buy a new work phone ? As I have the budget to buy one and I won’t the easy fix

    What is non-Intune related app performance like? You could certainly try the same troubleshooting as above, and/or if the issue is confined to your Intune app, then your work company's IT support are probably better-positioned to troubleshoot/advise.

    Battery life is gone to pot since the update to 10, mines forever on the bloody charger.

    Mine was a bit dodgy at the start but has since levelled out to pre 10 standard.

    Mine was the same. Pure malogen after the update. Turned off adaptive battery and back to normal now. Give it a go and see how you get on.

    Did any of the people having problems try a hard reset and restore? Mine's been like butter since the update, but I cleared the phone and started from scratch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,355 ✭✭✭ofcork


    Mine isn't freezing as much battery life has picked up again too.

    It seems phones used long time will become slow, even factory reset doesn't work.

    For a new phone, You may try Huawei P40 series. Today is the global launch event and may ready in Ireland market on 7-Apr. Amazing camera by capturing photos and videos anytime and anywhere you want, and the innovative design!
    It can share data by handset knocking the laptop!!

    Which means, you need by a handset+laptop. hahaha:)

    I am not using my Nokia 7 Plus at the moment as my main device so I only have 16 minunte screen time (downloads of updates and a sproadic text here or there) and last last charge was 2 days ago and I'm down to 75%.

    This is worse than in the past, where I lost not more than 15% in similar scenarios.

    Having really bad charging issues, from very slow charging to it randomly stop charging. Also have to charge it at an angle so it sounds like i have a port and battery problem.
    Never buying Nokia again, this is brutal and it sounds like its very common.

    I really like the actual phone but these issues are unforgivable. I've been in contact with Nokia so i'll see where i get with them.

    I got my charging port replaced under warranty.

    Others report on this thread that the warranty repair service is (or at least was pre-CoVid) very quick & effective.

    I didn't ask you for any advice nor do I require a new unit.
