Official Lumia 820 Amber Update Thread

[SanjitVignesh]

even after this update double tap is not working, can someone tell me if it is working for Lumia 820

Double Tap will be turned off by default. Check the settings in Settings->display+touch->touch.

If i flash the cv rom to my EE 820 do i have to configure any APN settings or will it just work???

If you have double tap on you will burn through more battery just as a side not, also if you have high sensitivity on it will drain quickly.

It's disabled, of course.

Wooohoooo!!!
Finally, the Amber Update has reached Lumia 820 Country Varinants in the UK!!!

Update mine today and it seems to be OK.

For some reason the battery seems to be lasting a lot longer. Will update this post after a few days of use.

I completely agree mate, it lasts much longer now.

How is this possible, in my case it's just the opposite...

What's your idle discharge rate, on average?

I am also facing battery draining problems. It is losing 3%/hr at standby (no network WiFi). Anyone have such problems and possible solution? I did all battery saving measure and it don't seen to work.

You can set static IP address as well...

I've got amber update! but how can I set static IP ?

I haven't noticed an issue with either, to be honest?

Care to expand on what issues you're having with audio?

After i update to amber OTA. I had a loudspeaker problem. After using the headphones, the loudspeaker will not function. But after a hard reset,everything returns to normal. After the reset, i did not install the audio and accesories update from the store and did not use my headset either, no loudspeaker problem since.

TBH 3% an hour seems like a low battery drain to me. Think about it, if you took your phone off charge at 7:00am and didn't touch it all day you'd still have 64% left at 7pm. That would seem pretty good to me for any smartphone and particularly the 820 with it's 1650mAh battery.

I'd say your battery drain is within the boundaries of normal.

Firmware for Lumia 820 on EE to GDR2 now available via Nokia Software for Retail!!!!!!!!

Following on from this I've since updated my unbranded country variant Lumia 820 to GDR/Amber and have immediatly noticed an increasae in battery life. Took it off charge at 9:00am this morning and it's now at 81% at 13:30GMT. That equates to 4.2%/hr whic is more than the 3% you 're getting so I wouldn't be complaining if I were you. Mine has been used during this time as well - push email, several texts and a couple of quick phone calls.

My immediate impression is that batteyr life is definintely better.

Well I can confirm Data Sense is on the EE rom for those interested..

FM radio etc is all there and my Other storage is at 400mb with all my apps where as it was 1.8gb previously...

Just done a full charge so will let you know tomorrow how that goes...

Have you used some of the many free apps to ensure all the Nokia system apps are up to date??

I know i had about 5 apps to update once i flashed GDR2...

Its funny how they prioritize any other Lumias, such as 520 620 ... over 920/820 >_<

for example they changed status to "Comming soon" for L620 in Slovak/Czech country variant ...... such shame on Nokia for that

It's down to the carriers, not Nokia.

If you want Amber now, you can always update it manually using Nokia Software Updater.
