Official 8.1/Cyan for the Icon?

[anon(7901790)]

This also means I'm back to checking for updates 63 times a day. Jeez. lol

You actually counted how many times a day you checked? :-D

 

[Surmisation]

Anyone else feeling hopeful?

Hopeful? Seriously? If I had javelin skills, I'd throw flaming bags of dog doo at their towers.

BTW... Profile Pic, Why are you smoking on a crackpipe?

Microsoft never said when the roll out would be completed, it just said that it would roll out in the summer. As for those of us on the US carriers that have not pushed out the update...that is not Microsoft's fault. Also, Verizon is not the only US carrier to not push out the update. T-Mobile, Cricket, and Metro PCS haven't pushed it out either.

I doubt that it's Microsoft but the carriers as Verizon is notorious for delaying updates, if they even release them at all. Just my opinion though as none of know anything for certain. Only MS and the carriers know for sure.

That is not a crack pipe. it's a Personal Vaporizer.
The pic is small, so taking a wild guess, looks almost like a Z-Atty Pro (or similar) on a Provari.
Nope I was wrong, it's a mech I think, but can't tell what model or what the atty is.

Mine is a Copper Magma on a Provari Mini.
Vaping a Cool NillaLada. (aka DIYFS Holy Vanilla w/ TFA Koolada).

Microsoft pushing out Lumia Cyan update for more Windows Phone 8.1 Preview for Developer users | Windows Phone Central

Anyone else feeling hopeful?

LOL, no. The cyan update was only working on devices with 8.0. MS is testing a "fixed" roll out to update 8.1DP. Doesn't help us one bit since we don't have the cyan update available. On 10-7 we can start the "are we there yet?" questions again. Until then we can watch as devices like the 930 get update 1.

So with the update [hopefully] coming soon, do you guys think it's worth it to just go ahead and install the Developer Preview?

I don't wanna do that if it's not significantly different enough to matter (and then have to roll back just to update back to Cyan).

It was my Facebook profile pic at the time I registered and it was Halloween. I was the 10th Doctor and that's a sonic screwdriver...

Does that mean if I roll back to 8.0 I could get Cyan?
I love 8.1 but I may roll back because of BT issues. Xbox music breaks up a lot and I've lost my text messages over Bluetooth even with it checked ON for Cortana :-(

No Cyan yet.

There is no evidence at all that the Verizon update is "coming soon" actually, but hopefully it WILL be coming. If we're lucky it'll be with the fix where it doesn't matter if you have Preview or not.

So with latest news from Joe Belfiore, anyone think the ICON will get CYAN from MS before Verizon or you think he was referring more to the HTC phones?

 

[aximtreo]

Other than updates to the present Preview for 8.1, we ICON users will not get anything official until Verizon releases it to us. That means we will have the Preview 8.1 and no Cyan until Verizon gets off it's collective butts, we are stuck where we are.

I think he was referring to the HTC phones only getting the issue fixed so they can get 8.1 Preview. (HTC of course doesn't have Cyan since it's Lumia firmware).

The "Cyan ramp up" language is promising, still...

Correct

Yes, that's what caught my attention. Along with the previous tweet.

Chuckle... UK thespians are the best... Also you gotta admire how their telcos are divided. TV providers, Broadband, and mobile providers are segmented entities. Sure there's some overlap, but its wholly segregated.

America....sighs

BTW we're at war with Syria

Oh I see. The markings and everything look very familiar.

Wouldn't Verizon update the page below before the update? On previous updates, similar pages for other phones I had (Touch Pro2, Trophy, and 928), were updated days before the update actually went live.
