Living with 920 Amber Update-Image Algorithms change,Battery Life Everything Here

[dlusted]

EE in the UK here, flashed with the French ROM yesterday and Data sense works. The device handles it, not sure on how accurate it'll be just yet.

Oh, and it made my automatic date & time work!

Can I assume your 4G is working pproperly also??
I want to flash to get Data Sense and have it working with EE, but a lil iffy to flash foreign ROM....

Waiting for an Amber on L720 :'(

Still waiting for Amber on my unbranded UK 920, but thanks for posting this thread! Any updates on battery life? That's my biggest hope - that the battery life is better

Also, glad the color profiles are there. I'm glad Nokia is giving us this option (even though we should be getting more from Microsoft )!

That'll be the best news ever for me if it's the same when the OTA comes. Thought it was network dependent though?

i faced the battery issue once, it drains out after an hour without using anything, may be it's the stuck process issue. Just soft reset the phone and it's back to normal

 

[Golgofier]

This might be completely co-incidental but after I flashed the French Amber rom I have dropped two calls and completely missed one incoming call (phone didn't even register it).
Anyone noticed similar behaviour?

After Amber:
1. PlayTo now works flawlessly with my Denon Receiver
2. You can now sync Google mail/contacts/calendar with the Gmail template from account settings instead of using Outlook
3. Several paid applications no longer show up on the market place. I lost several paid apps: Hydro Thunder Go, Board Express, de Blob etc...
Overall, excellent upgrade.

I am happy to here about the camera updates. Can't wait for att to send out the update. This is why I wanted to wait for the 920 update before buying a 1020. This should hold me over till a proper 920 upgrade comes along.

Here is my question Is Data Sense the same as storage check, because i have a L920 without Amber, and the storage check is, I think, the same as Data sense.

you can set the limit of your data usage.. if it reaches, you'll be no longer be able to use your data plan.. it's nice way to adminstrate your ''demands''..

Guys, I don't know if you guys noticed it, but now you can choose a tone for each person you want, and you're able to choose different sounds for sms/email !!

finally!! I'm loving amber more and more every day!

I just can't wait but I have about 4G game and 6 G app and app data, if I flash it I would get lots of trouble!
:angry:

What exactly do you mean? You could always choose a separate ringtone for each contact? You've always had the ability to change sounds for sms/email as well (not contact specific though). Are you saying we can have custom sms and email tones now as well? That would be much welcomed.

 

[Jealy666]

I wish it showed unread SMS / E-mail on glance.

I don't know if you noticed it pre-Amber. But you can set custom ringtone for each contact. I haven't updated to GDR2 yet.

However, custom SMS notifications are probably new. I don't have them on my 620.

Where did you see that? I'm on GDR2 and only can choose a different tone (for each contact) for incoming calls, NOT for SMS or E-mail.
Are you sure of that? If yes, please explain to me how?
Thanks

In configs and then at sounds + something, I'm able to choose a tone for sms or chat, new message at the mail post and another one for email, I guess this is a new feature, or at least I don't remember previously
