There's nothing from today on his Twitter timeline about this; and nothing recent about HTC 8x on it either. . .

Just got Cyan on my 521 T-Mobile

TMobile Lumia 521 updating to CYAN right now Nov 5 at 8AM EST

I have a Lumia icon on Verizon. I just got off the phone with a Verizon rep who said the icon should have the update by today. I don't have it yet, but then he said it will most likely be out for us by the end of the month. Of course, this is not what I'm relying on. In October, a sales rep told me that I would have the update y the end of that month. No luck. So, keep a watch for the update for those of u on Verizon and post on this thread as soon as you can get it.

He said TODAY? Honestly I'm wondering if they're not just sick of people asking and throw out that answer just to get us out of their hair. I'd love it if it was true, but I'm not gonna get my hopes up.

Actually OwenDL, my friends mom has an icon that got an update today. He doesn't know yet if it was cyan because she had gone to bed. But if what the Verizon rep said is true, then icon users will have cyan in the next week. They can't push the update to everyone at once or the network would die, so they release it in stages. So just keep watch over the next few days.

People please stop asking VZW support. They are utterly clueless and constantly giving out contradicting information.

Plus if the update was released then this page, Availability in North America - Nokia would have been updated.

1) It comes from Microsoft not Verizon. 2) I think Wifi is required for the update. 3) Windows Phone has a tiny marketshare.
So I don't see how it would affect the network.

No it took them a couple of days to reflect that T-Mobile released it on the 521. Its not instantly updated.

Interesting, Joe B tweeted,

and the software update page is accurate.

 

[ChukM]

Just checked on my Lumia Icon, update is not available yet.

 

[awilliams1701]

It is now, but this site displayed the update before the Microsoft page did. I don't recall if this tweet is before or after the page was updated. I just know it took a couple of days for that page to be updated with the T-Mobile availability.

It's not released yet. VZW and Microsoft are dragging their heals.

Are you saying that it is out or not?

 

[awilliams1701]

Its out for everyone except Verizon. Some phones will not get the update anyway (810, Cricket's 520). All I was trying to say is that site is the last to get updated not the first. When T-Mobile released it, that site said "Under Testing". Someone else said you can use that site to see if its available or not, and I was just trying to point out the fact that there appears to be a delay between availability and the site saying its available.

Ok thanks for clearing that up. I was just a little unclear of what exactly you were saying.

Sorry for the wrong information everyone. I called Verizon again and they said that the 8.1/Cyan update has been pushed back indefinitely. We may not get it ever.

 

[awilliams1701]

And this is exactly why I'm now on AT&T with a 1520.3. The really awesome part is that I have options. I can pick the latin firmware or the AT&T firmware if there are ever any issues. Currently I'm on Cyan with the native latin firmware. Verizon phones don't have this option and never will as long as CDMA is around.

Personally I would take this with a grain of salt. Unless you call them several times a day and get the same answer then I would be worried.
