    Hi, RajeshKothari. Did you update your phone's system apps after updating its software? See: http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Pool-of-Knowledge/Nokia-Windows-Phone-8-App-Updates/td-p/1640082. If you have confirmed that they are updated, try recovering the software of your phone using the Nokia Software Recovery Tool. Download it from here: Nokia Lumia 720 - How can I recover/reset/restore my phone software?. Be mindful that all your personal files will be deleted, so back up is a must. For more info on how to do that, go here: Nokia Lumia 720 - Back up and restore data on your phone. All the best!

    Hi,

    I bought my Nokia Lumia 720 sometime in August last year in India. It was working brilliantly in the first few days until the windows OS was updated. Not only did the image capture quality of the phone's camera degraded, but my phone's screen started freezing every 5 seconds! Everytime I did anything, whether playing "Wordament", or looking through the address book, or even unlocking the screen, my phone stopped responding. The only way to unfreeze the screen was to press the screen button on the side. 

    To fix this problem, I tried reseting the phone and updating the software. I even went to the Nokia care center and they suggested me to replace the screen! I need a better workaround for this because I think this is a software glitch. I am really disappointed with the performance of this phone considering that I trusted Nokia over other phone companies. 

    Please help me! :crying:

    your solution works .

    It is happening when I am ending my call (often) . Some times this happens when I am in between a call and I am unable to end my call , And few times when I have to receive the call .

    It also happens when phone is ideal and I try to unlock the screen .
