Lumia 810 8.1 Upgrade question

[Zuke24]

So, in a funny spot here. I have the Lumia 810, which many of you do as well and I don't need to tell you about the problems we've had with getting support.

I've been running the Developers Preview and have 8.1 on my phone right now. Love it. The question becomes, do I need to roll back to 8.0 and wait for the official 8.1 upgrade? I remember they said 8.1 was going to ALL Lumia's but I don't know if they included our little phone in that message or not.

Also, CAN we even roll back? Most the tools I've seen are all phone or carrier specific.

Sadly, MS said all WP8.0 devices, subject to carriers. Unfortunately T-Mobile (or Nokia) decided to stop bothering with the 810 completely after the Amber firmware. Which unfortunately means no Cyan. You can either stick with the dev preview, or roll back to 8.0 using the nokia recovery tool. And since the 810 was a T-Mobile only, there was no country variant version.

The 810 has been left in the dust, T-Mo confirmed the 521 and 925 will see the updates, but not the 810. Sticking to the Dev Preview + Amber is as up-to-date you can get with that model unfortunately.

Sad panda. Especially because I love 8.1, but it seems to have some issues without the Black and Cyan updates to fix some things.
