Hey guys...i just had an online chat with a Nokia representative regarding my 820...

According to him they are testing Lumia Black for all phones currently and assured me that it will be available for OTA update near about christmas for India as well as Asian regions where there ain't any mobile contract system

Whoa. Didn't expect them to come through this quickly.

Good news for those not on the Dev Preview, then!

[rcazador]

I'm surprised that they were even aware of the Black update, Good times for Lumia Warriors :D

[ericsonbernabe20]

That would be awesome!

[nocial]

I'll believe it when I see it.

So what you're saying is that we'll be getting the update by the end of this month ? And you're sure of that.

[abhirajsoni]

Wow. Christmas surprise. I will also try to contact them. Lets see if they know what the black update is.

Lol.. I did a live chat with Nokia guys. They said that Lumia Black is for "WINDOWS 8" ROFL.
And I corrected them that it's for Windows Phone 8.

The Care guys tend to give false info. They promised me that the Amber update will be released the next day I contacted them. It turned out to be 1 month later. They always just picked random answers. Don't get hopes up.

Black update is really so late, I don't understand what is taking Nokia so long to release that update

is there will be any thing special more than GDR3 Dev ????

Seriously there is so much, assuming your phone has 1GB RAM

[Pratham Sarwate]

implementing Nokia Beamer and Glance notifications won't be that easy, considering how restrictive WP8 is. so ya, it will take a little time.
i agree lower end phones won't get much. but then, updates always start from flagships to others.

Don't trust them. They always give random dates or answers. Lumia 1520 along with 1320 will be launched in india on 16th dec 2013(Monday)
So if we think this way via market tactics they won't launch the update until next year since newly phones (1520,1320) will be given hih priority.if they gave the update to older devices earlier ,there will be a bad sales for new lumia 1520. According to me it will be avaliable from late jan 2014. And if they are going under testing for black on all models (heared about 520). There should be a permamnet link where we can have a look when will it be avalaible just like they did for amber update for all models.again don't ask them they are not supposed to give answers hence they tell such stupid answers to our questions.

Oh boy you should read articles on wpcentral. There you go

Nokia India sends out media invites for their 'BIG' day; Lumia 1320 and 1520 to launch | Windows Phone Central

[Greywolf1967]

I would say, if they do set Black free right after the launch of the 1520 and 1320, that would be very smart on Nokia's part!!!! Seeing that Nokia and WP8 is ahead of iphone in India, this would be a good way to keep the lead.

[rakesh1995]

As far as i know India will get update in January

[akshay2304s]

The Nokia care guys told my friend that Lumia Black will be available in the end of January.

[Vikram Dinesh]

The 1520 is launching in India today as per Nokia India's tweet yesterday.

[Ashish Saraf1]

They should have launched 1320 imo...that would have been a hit here !
