Help! Need to update to 8.1

[vijay aditya]

Hi,
I have been using developer preview for 8.1 and i recently got 8.1 official update and there aren't any new changes other than swipe down to close the background tasks.

i read a article saying using nokia recovery tool we can downgrade and again get back the update, i tried but it showed me error and the process stopped before it started installing.

So, i reset my phone and i got cyan as default and i didn't yet receive any update of build 12400 of the Windows Phone 8.1 OS preview which was rolled out two days earlier.

Can anyone help me how to get the real cyan update which has brightness settings, USB settings and other updates in settings.

Thank you in Advance:straight:

I have updated my L925 to Cyan. But which brightness, USB and other updates in settings you are talking about exactly? Let me know so I may be able to help. Also if possible, send me the article link. My core build ID is 3051.50009.1424.10362, my variant is RM-892_im_india_216, in 'extras+info'. OS version is 8.10.12393.890 in 'about'.

Lumia cyan still does not support the new usb settings and other stuf u just mentioned. Hoewever if you were using dev preview the extras +info option would show Lumia black. Now that you have updated to official 8.1 to verify it go to settings> extras+ info and it should show Lumia cyan.

All those display settings are available for latest lumia phones and for older devices may get them via an update of display ...AND latest preview bulid was halted by Microsoft as there are bitlocker issues for some people while upgrading to lumia cyan....
USB settings are not part of the lumia cyan it's up to microsoft to inlcude in upcoming updates..

I do not have those setting in the image. They might be there for latest gen device. For now, we don't have them. So you do have the latest Lumia Cyan.

yeah i have cyan but i don't have these features mentioned.

Use the sysapp pusher app to download the setting app updates. That's probably why you can't see some new features. When you reset your phone, all the settings apps return to their factory preloaded version
