When will official 8.1/Cyan update be released?

[MikeLip]

I noticed my battery drained much faster on my 8x when I put the preview on it. It was when it was first released and since switched to a 920 on 8.0. I haven't really touched or updated the 8x since the initial 8.1 preview was released. Cortana also started acting wonky after the first week or so. Has it improved at all?

As seems to be usual, I never have any problems with 8.1 on the 8x. Cortana is fine as well. YMMV, as it always seems to go with beta software. This type of thing happens on WP, as well as BB OS10 and Android - until official release you take your chances. However, I ended up wiping my 8x while it was on 8.0, then doing the install. It was painful but I'm happy with the phone.

If it doesn't contain a major revamp to Email, I'm going to be very disappointed.

Plus Outlook.com aliases, marking messages as Spam, and a number of other different things. Really, they just need to port the Windows 8 mail app onto WP.

My patience has ended. Btw if anyone has installed the dp, i have a question. Does installing the dp void the warranty??

The installation itself does not, but if something will 'break' - then yes, the warranty will be avoided. Fortunately, so far I didn't see any cases of physical damage caused by 8.1 DP.

So, some poeople already have Cyan, did they review somewhere if it solved a lot of problems and if battery life is better? Why do I see no Cyan experiences anywhere?

someone needs to chill.
many of us updated to 8.1 without cyan.
In official updates, the firmware and the OS is bundled, but they can function independently. (GDR2 + Amber, Update 3 + Black, 8.1 + Cyan officially, but Update 3/GDR3 was had with Amber because of the Developer Preview, and currently many of us are using 8.1 with Black.)

the official 8.1 + cyan is still being pushed out, so dial back the vitriol and be patient, we don't have a choice. its just news of an 8.1 update.

from what i understand we'll get the carrier update stuff when it's released by them.
we'll continue to get any updates that MS pushes out as well

So where is Lumia Cyan?

So isn't Lumia Cyan supposed to be released within the next 2 weeks of July?

I am on developer preview of Windows Phone 8.1, using UK unlocked version of Lumia 1520. Do I need to leave developers preview or remain on it to get it?

That reminds me of that dog from windows XP. My dads outlook account profile picture is that dog and we've tried many ways to get rid of it. But he still appears xD
