I have a Lumia 820 too. I hope it will work but I think it won't

I think It will work only on phones with qualcom 800 procesors (930, icon and 1520).

I'm pretty sure us 820 peeps don't have the correct processor. Bring on the 830!

'Hey cortana' will not work even with 830

Maybe in the update after Lumia Denim will be availible for us too!!! Do you remember the 3 column tiles that were availible only on the 1520 & the 1320 who knows what could happen in the future!!!

The 820 has a Snapdragon S4 plus processor. It does not have an always listing core. This is a hardware feature. Your 820 is not going to wake up one day with a new Snapdragon 800 CPU.[h=1][/h]

Yes but the could reduce the amount of clock speed that hey cortana needs and that means that it could be availiable to L820. Also don't forget that cortana is still beta.

Did you just become an ARM CPU engineer? It is not going to happen. The chip cant do it, was never designed to do it.

On a related note I have some excellent swamp land to sell you, just turn down the clock speed and it becomes a perfectly usable farm or urban construction real estate.

It's not about clock speed, it's about "low power microphone" that is listening all the time that's only available from the 8xx processor series...

I am tempted to say "google it!" But then i get in trouble again... :devil:

I found the answer very quickly, and as mentioned above, the answer is:
It will work only on phones with qualcom 800 proccessors

You need special hardware for that. There is nothing else to say!

The answers here are correct of course. Always-on listening requires dedicated hardware which the 820 lacks, but it has nothing to do with the CPU. I've described this in more detail in the following thread, which also explains "Hey Cortana's" dependance on SensoreCore:
