And AT&T users are still waiting...

ur joking!! Thats gotta be AT&T, I couldn't see Nokia doing that to their customers. The reason ours took so long (Australia) was carrier interference:( something has to b done about carrier meddling coz its ridiculous to get a firmware update 3mths after its released!!!

Yep, it's all AT&T! 920 users got the update a while ago. I will be looking for unlocked/unbranded phones like my 720 from now on. :angry:

Did you encounter any problems with flashing to an AT&T 820? Please post a link to the instructions. I'd like to do the same since it appears that AT&T is never going to release the update.

Their is no guaranty that the firmware is there on the servers, but if it is you will be able to flash it to your phone.


I actually remember reading that thread, but totally for got about that method to get firmware. lol

Can you send them to me too? Thanks!

Holy bleep they are right...the '1314' ATT 820 North America is in Nokia Care Suites to download and update. Not sure how long it has been there (I checked a while back and it was not) but I ASSUME this means ATT will be sending out the 'over-the-air' update soon....but then again it is ATT :) Here is a link on how to use Nokia Care Suites update (but remember this resets your phone so do the normal backup thing and maybe screen capture your start screen if you want everything exactly the same). Can't wait to clear up storage!!!!!!!!!!
[New] Nokia Care Suite PST 5.0 2013.13.4.4 - GSM-Forum

And here is a print screen of what I am downloading...I assume all ATT USA 820 phones will be the same:

edit: well my download failed about halfway through, but it failed last time I was at work when I downloaded my current firmware so I will try later tonight or early in the week again.

Did you get it to work. I had no issues yesterday.

So far it seems a bit quicker, and my first call had no issues (noise cancelation bug). Battery seems better on standby, but still drains quickly with any use.

My firmware download failed halfway through...I tried a few times. I will try again when I get home...if I can download the firmware I will update if it worked for me or not.
