Oxford is an authority on English language, for spanish you have to consult the RAE dictionary (Spanish language royal academy), www.rae.es , and according to them the word lumia doesn't belong to the Spanish language.

Wow, It does appear in the Essential Edition of the Dictionary, but don't waste your time trying to find someone who actually use that word.
+1 from me to you.
