I'm thinking about doing that just to get the GDR1 update next week. Is it safe to do so?

The issue is with dev preview and Cyan - if you've got Cyan by rolling back, then the dev preview/Cyan thing is irrelevant. The problem was after the install. Since you've bypassed the issue you can go ahead and put dev preview back on, ready for GDR1's dev preview.

Thanks. I was wondering the same.

BTW, I am *loving* the Cyan update on my 1520.3 so far! It really is a bit faster, the camera is wayyy snappier (yay!), and it feels like the WP8.1 release is finally at parity with the hardware. Can't wait to see what Update 1 brings :)

I did the rollback and update this morning. I have an RM-940 (AT&T 32GB Model) and thought I was going to have issues as the app kept saying it was an unsupported phone. Dummy me, was using the wrong program. :(

Anyway, if anyone else has the 32GB model from AT&T, you will have no issues getting Cyan and WP 8.1.

Errr, how do you roll back? I've read about it, and understand it's all about getting an update to Cyan, but how do you actually roll back?

I rolled back my wife's 1320 to 8.0 and updated to Cyan. There were a couple of updates. Then I installed dev preview again and got another update. Now the phone is on cyan with dev preview.

I rolled back to 8 to get Cyan on the 1320 in India and then did DP again as for some reason Cyan only gave me the 8.1 12393 version. Now with DP I got the 12397 again!

I thank slyronit for his very informative post. As a result of his informative post I have found this (think it works for the 1520):

Nokia has released a tool for recovery you can download here: http://download.fds-ncom.nokia.com/...covery/NokiaSoftwareRecoveryToolInstaller.exe

After downloading the file:

Install the program.
Run the program.
Plug in your phone.
Let the PC and program recognize your phone.
The last official update for your phone should be available, which is WP8.
Recover the system to the version shown by the tool.

My next question is: anybody here on Vodafone UK? If so, is the Cyan update available yet? I don't want to roll back for nothing.

Before anybody jumps in and says use the search function - I have!! I used google search and couldn't find anything. Thought it would be quicker to ask a bunch of friendly people here.

Yes the Cyan (firmware update) is not directly tied to the OS updates except that some newer features MAY require a certain firmware update (BLACK, CYAN, whatever) for a specific feature to work. Otherwise they can coexist in any combination and function separately.

Can I update to WP 8.1 update 1 and then to Cyan on L720(India CV)?


Technically yes, but as of now, no, as CYAN is blocked for everyone on DP 8.1 or above.

You will be able to, once MS fixes the Bitlocker issue, but I would roll back to 8.0 as soon as the update is out for the 920 and then update to CYAN.

I reverted to 8.0 installed Cyan then re-enabled the Dev Preview. No new updates after that though, since Cyan is for the 1520.3 (RM-938) is already build 12397.

Yes,

But as many have pointed out, right now there are no newer builds available so I'm on the "production" version of Cyan/WP 8.1

MaryJo Foley put up a post today that the first DP of WP8.1 Update 1 will likely be pushed out next week.

How is that going to work for those NOT on Cyan, but still on DP? Would you have to update to Cyan first?
