TMobile push Lumia Black yet?

[Paedin]

I work offshore on a oil drilling ship in the GoM. Was just wondering if anyone on Tmobile has gotten the Lumia Black push yet? Ive been checking my phone twice a day, and it isnt showing yet.

You can check the latest status update here!

Availability in North America - Nokia
We're currently waiting for approval here in the US.

Given that the Lumia 925 in other countries / carriers has already gotten the approval, I can't fathom what the hold up is with our US carriers. These aren't Android devices or Windows Mobile devices where each carrier shipped out a customized ROM.

Its been tough for me switching to Tmobile and losing my black 1020, oh well only a few things missing really

It still has to go through carrier testing, and who knows the US carriers might put WP in the bottom of the barrel for test. They're probably testing Apple and Samsungs next device while letting this wait a bit.

Thankfully the wait wasn't terribly long for at&t's 925. Long, but not terribly long.

did it fix WiFi calling? I haven't be able to use WiFi calling since I did the gdr3 update. Sucks being offshore and not having it as an option.

He's not able to ask your question, he has a AT&T Lumia 925, and WiFi calling is a feature exclusive to Tmobile.

As Flagz said, unfortunately I won't be able to answer that.

I'm running gdr3 on my 925 with o WiFi issues. You may have to do a hard reset my 925 after updating needed a couple of resets to get things in order.
Posted on my 925.

Yea these WP need attention like a toddler.

 

[Paedin]

Yea, I should know better and did a reset after downloading GDR3. Didnt even think about it. Now if Tmobile will just push Black, Id be set. 4 days behind ATT and counting.

 

[pizana_13]

I was hoping t-mobile would beat att to push this update since it was their exclusive phone at first but I guess not.

 

[Paedin]

Yea, they arent doing much to help their come to us were better than ATT image. Gets beat to push an update for a phone designed for you. Not carrying the 1520 or the lesser variant. Im seriously considering swapping to ATT and grabbing a 1520 when I get back on land.

I'm very glad I picked up the 925.2 from Negri which is an unlocked LTE variant. Works perfect on T-Mobile, and it came with Black waiting to be installed

"T-Mobile # of days behind ATT pushing Lumia Black update for 925 - 5days and counting." Going to be my facebook status until they push it and just update the count daily. Used the @Tmobile facebook feature. I encourage others to follow suit who have Tmobile.

 

[Paedin]

Kinda just shows how far WP has to go in the whole scheme of things....reply to my lastest days behind update...and my response.

@Tmobile
# of days behind ATT pushing the Lumia Black update for the 925 - 7 days and counting.

Ryan Connell - Thanks Chris for linking me to a article written on July 12, 2013. It was really informative about a update released in October of last year. Which didn't even bother to cover the GDR3 update released in Dec. I'll watch that page to make sure im up to date on all the current information about the Lumia Black update...#qualtiytechnicalservice

This is getting ridiculous. Seriously, T-Mobile is slacking.
