Re: Initial thoughts on Developer Preview of WP8.1

First update installing on my 920... so exciting! First test will have to be Word Flow.

Dayum! These cogs are scary even with that progress bar!
 
Re: Initial thoughts on Developer Preview of WP8.1

Takes forever! Still only seeing the first "blipp" of the progressbar for installation... for 45 minutes now! :(

Migrating all my data... It's like waiting for a baby to be born. Baby Cortana.

Almost done...
...and it will be worth the wait.

Migrating your data (step 1 of 19) 6%

Migrating data (Step 13 of 19) Almost done... and it will be worth the wait. Love these new install messages :wink:

Re: Initial thoughts on Developer Preview of WP8.1

first one installing now. So glad this happened now...have meetings all afternoon that I want to use Cortana for.

Mine is stuck in the spinning cogs now for half an hour, still in the beginning, the progress bar didn't even move for 1mm.

[TIP]- There are two updates - first one is a small one, second is MASSIVE.
- Your update installation will depend on your WiFi
- It will take anything between 20 to 60 minutes
- KEEP YOUR PHONE PLUGGED TO CHARGER
- First update may take longer after 80% - don't worry.
- Second update will take ages at cog wheels when progression bar is about 5-10% : Literally 10-15 minutes, don't panic.
- Second update will take ages again about 94-98% when it prepares to install or when its installing: DON'T PANIC.

As long as you had 50% or more battery and you have plugged your phone to charger, you should be ok. Just make a cup of tea and enjoy it.[/TIP]
