Official 8.1/Denim for the Icon?

[savagelizards]

5 Paged PDF of features I've been using for a year. NIce to see the column about the few denim improvements, but the part I find telling a MISSING is any news on a new wifi-driver or Bluetooth.?? I was really hoping to see something about that to improve wifi performance

Have not had the wifi issues some speak of, but Microsoft post mentions improved wifi connectivity:

Wow! Hey Cortana is really sweet! Yeah, I did the update via LSRT. The download was the longest,the update the quickest. Gonna use the say to check battery drain on denim.

Does update with LSRT wipe everything?

That's great!

Do you have double tap to wake as well?

Does update with LSRT wipe everything?

Yes it does.

Run a backup, and run Verizon's Backup Assistant before hooking up to the LSRT. Your Start screen, apps, contacts and texts will be restored. Most app settings and high scores will not be restored, (if you're coming from WP8.0, they definitely won't)...I haven't seen too many developers take advantage of that feature yet.

Does update with LSRT wipe everything?

Yes but WiFi works better for me now as I'm downloading apps again.

Does update with LSRT wipe everything?

Yes, but I restored from backup. Don't know about game backups, I don't have any current.

Look like the update was final on 2/9/15. Hmm so its done. Just roll it out please!

Thinking of jumping back on the Icon. Can anyone tell me the best place to go to find one for sell.

The information in that link doesn't correspond to this forthcoming firmware update. They state within:

"Latest software release for Nokia Lumia Icon is 1028.3566.1417.0047"

I'm on 1028.3566.1417.10241 - which was the build from 4/23/2014 - and I definitely experience poor WiFi reception on my Icon.

Even though the article mistakenly mentions an "updated Glance Screen", it's official now...they can't take it back!

Lumia Denim now rolling out to Lumia Icon in the U.S. - Lumia Conversations

Check the market place here on this site. There are a couple of ICON's for sale. Post that you WTB an ICON and you will get responses.

 

[OvenRash]

Can you update with the Preview for Developers? Or do you have to roll back?

 

[DavidinCT]

Checked via Nokia Software Updater for Retail and it's showing it available.... Nice...



Thinking about just Nuking my phone and going for it....

When will VZW release it, soon I hope...

 

[Curtis Guider]

Downloading Lumia Denim for my ICON right now using Lumia Recovery Tool. Will update with screenshots in by 10:45 EST.

DavidinCT, you should edit your IMEI out of that pic...

I was doing it as you posted this reply, forgot about that, FIXED, thanks

 

[Dreamspell]

I just updated. Lumia Camera 5 confirmed!

 

[DavidinCT]

Wish Verizon would release it, so I can try to install it instead of nuking my phone, will do it but, got 2 more achievements in one game, and want to finish them before nuking my phone (App backup is worthless for games)

ISO in Lumia Camera now goes from 64 to 3200.
