Nope, and it's not even available through the Nokia Care Software.

My mum still hasn't recevied Amber even though the Nokia website says it's available for several days now... (Availability in Europe - Nokia - The Netherlands - T-Mobile Lumia 820)

Big fail Nokia and T-Mobile.

One perfectly honest confession. Since the amber update a week ago, I haven't used the power button to wake up my 820. Not even by mistake.

Updated yesterday , Slovenia CV . Nokia Pro Camera is great. And i got back watch (glance screen) that i was used from ex phone, Nokia C6-01.

Bump. How can one force the OTA update without flashing via Nokia's Retail suite?

Updated yesterday for me, unlocked and unbranded device (Netherlands)! Can't really tell what the big fuss is about though, pretty minor update. Glance is nice, but kinda gimmicky, and so is double tap to wake.

The amber update corrects the problema with the sd cards? Duplicate photos and music?

Some users find the "minor update" pretty useful, especially the addition of FM Radio support, CalDAV/CardDAV support.
Lumia 620 users are getting High Sensitive Touch.
The camera improvements are more than welcome by a lot of WP users.

Yes. After the update, transfer all your items in the SD card to PC, format the SD card once and transfer the files back by synchronizing with the WP app for desktop.

I have a Hong Kong branded, the page says Amber is now available, but I'm from Costa Rica, and my phone can't find the update, anyone know if I have to wait the costarrican update??

I also have a Hong Kong branded phone but no Amber update. I don't expect to get it as yet though as my firmware version doesn't correspond to the HK's version on the site.

Another few days, another no updates for my mums 820. Nokia and T-Mobile seriously suck at this point. I wonder why Nokia is so stupid to announce an update is "available" for almost a week yet there's still no update available when checking for updates.

 

[infinidim]

Still not seen anything for the 820 or 620 UK country variants yet!

 

[Johnny XB one]

The suspense is killing me!

yeah, sadly I think that too
I believe we will have to wait end september for the update
