Amber Update UK Thread

[TechnoBull]

Hmmm.... I was one of the impatient ones that used the firmware available on Nokia's servers... Having just looked at the version of firmware EE have just released, seems my early firmware download is not up to date as it is only:

3047.0000.1326.2021

:-/

That's not good so can you get the latest now or not

Heads up, currently downloading the amber update for my Lumia 920 on EE/T-Mobile. Finally!

How have we lived without this update for so long? Installed smoothly, and under an hour.

• Data Sense works fine
• Radio is awesome
• Flip to silence
• double tap and glance
• Call/SMS blocking

Was hoping for a UK podcast store but, oh well. It's pretty awesome anyway.

Thats normal, give it another 15 mins or so... be patient

Mine took basically 50 minutes then it rebooted then a further 10 mins transferring after I logged in again

Does Nokia Pro Cam come with amber update because I don't have it after my upgrade but I can download it separately

Mines just completed successfully. Only checked this thread earlier and thought I'd be waiting weeks for it to arrive!
I've got an EE phone but using a Virgin Sim and it looks to have gone through fine.

OS version now 8.0.10328.78 and Firmware 3047.0000.1326.2021

I'm the same, you download it separately. I've just installed Nokia Smart Cam as well :smile:

I'm doing exactly the same as you; only way I could get a 920 with my current contract Think the GDR2/Amber update package is great so far, I hear good things about battery life improvements so hopefully I'll start to notice changes.

No probs, I'm looking forward to trying them both in the daylight tomorrow.

Funny you say that, as battery life is what I'm looking out for as well. I haven't had this phone long at all and my old Lumia 800 which supposed to have shorter battery life, easily gets more than my 920. So hopefully it improves for me with this update.

I also noticed that they changed the default Nokia tunes for email, messages and voicemail. Not sure I like the new ones as much (the email one in particular isn't anywhere near as loud as the old one) but I'm sure I'll get used to them in time.

Thanks for that info. Just tried them on mine and to be honest, I prefer the 'old' ones which are definitely louder and easier to notice. Think I'm going to change the email one now, no way am I going to notice that go off!
