My AT&T 830 is Updating, Will This Be Denim?

[worldspy99]

I got a ATT branded 635 on Tuesday night and it was also updated to WP8.1 Lumia Denim, so I guess ATT pushed out an update for their low end device as well. I am not sure if TMO did that for their 635, all the more reason to not buy a carrier branded version.

There's this super-weird distinction between post and prepaid 635's on ATT. The postpaid models got the update, the prepaid ones didn't apparently.

And TMo is taking their sweet time I see.

You can reflash a prepaid into a postpaid

Lol, I just updated to that update this weekend using the "hacking" method...

I could have waited one more weekend and studied a bit more for school.

Ding dang it.

I received the update for my 830 today too. Pre-paid 635 still have nothing.

It sure is denim. My wife's 830 got it as well. Was kinda shocked when an update screen popped up.

Finally the real Denim update has arrived........just recieved last night, Camera works so fast now with HDR and IE also running faster.

Yeah, but that feeling of more knowledge and accomplishment can't be beat!

Having received the update, my Lumia Camera app is not working fast, not at all. Very slow to open, and frequently hangs. Worse performance than before the update.

there are (were) 2 lumia camera apps in the windows store. also, if you did the OTA update, you "may" still be linking to the older one if the OTA didn't remove it. also, check in the "photo + camera" section in settings to make sure you are using lumia camera and not microsoft camers.

Lastely, make sure you are on version 5.0.2.54. on my 830, it's definitely faster than it previously was.

Also make sure you're not using Lumia Camera Classic.

Good for you guys! Even though I got tired of AT&T's crap and bailed, I'm happy for those of you that decided to stick it out.

Now that AT&T finally released Denim, the AT&T version is back on the software support page:
Availability in North America - Microsoft - Global

It was on their initially, with "unknown" under each column, and then was removed after it seemed the update wasn't going to come. It's interesting that my aio/Cricket 620 is still on that list, even though I'm sure it'll never see any sort of official update.

Glad I checked the forum today. I didn't get any notifications but when I went to Phone update, it said there was an update ready to install. Loading now...

 

[dacarter77]

Update is complete. The Lumia camera launches quickly, and after launching, you can hold the camera button to start Moment Capture. I don't see any way to take 4k video in normal video mode.

 

[realwarder]

830 is 2k only (1080p)

 

[ashram]

1080P doesn't equal 2k, but it's close to.....

but yeah, no 4K on the 830

 

[yaby1979]

Yes it is. It's 8.1 update 2. Full Denim.

 

[dacarter77]

Bummer, I didn't see that in any of the MS info. So no 4k, no Hey Cortana... We get "live folders" whatever that is (we already have folders, is the only difference now you can name them?), Some Glance screen enhancements (I can't get Bing Weather to show on the glance screen, so no improvements for me), faster IE, the W10 prerequisite satisfied, and some other minor tweaks. At this point I have to wonder why everyone wanted this update so badly. I'm not impressed so far.

wifi and bluetooth stability, netflix (DRM failed on it and a few other video apps), the usual "seems faster" and Lumia Camera 5.
