Update to DP GDR1 available!

[Jazmac]

Lumia 920 on AT&T. Prepping to install sitting at 55..now moving 73% and climbing. I'll update the board when its done. Lumia 920 is usually reliable and hasn't let me down on updates.

I dont know how they could possibly get an accurate battery assessment over a few hours.

Good point. lol. But you always have to get a second opinion when you read stuff on WMPoweruser. If they happen to be right about the battery, this could be a good thing.

My phone froze for the first time ever. I updated at 11AM & when I woke up from my nap at 6, it wouldn't unlock. Sigh. Anyone else ?

Aware if the placebo effect of updates on users I never say it's faster. However this time I must admit the phone did got a bit snappier. All the rest looks unchanged. Including the missing keyboard inputs Microsoft has been forgetting forever.

 

[Great deal]

That's not the point, what about the developers this is meant for? Are you saying their inpatient too? Microsoft released it therefore it shouldn't cause major installtion issues.

Developers? oh please...probably 20% or less who have the DP are developers.

LUMIA 820 downloading also

I ve read somewhere in wmpoweruser that people are seeing remarkable battery life improvements

That should be taken with a grain of salt. If not even lots of grains. Typically battery behavior is very poor after an update, as it has to be recalibrated, which takes a couple of charge/decharge cycles. So anyone saying battery life improved such a short time after installing the update is simply lying.

Updated on my unlocked lumia 822 (in India). Took about 20 minutes total. Don't see anything new so far.

I've had it for several hours now and its very buggy and I wish I had not installed it.

Yes! My phone has froze twice today after updating and acts much more "sporadically."

Battery eater, hope this isn't true. L625.

L820 UK - took about 30 minutes to download before I set off to work. Left for work with full battery (it had been on charge when downloading) arrived at work showing 54% - massive battery use for an hour - shows 1 hour 12 mins left

What's going on

What's going on

I've explained this just a couple of posts above yours. This is absolutely normal. Everytime you install an update, all values gathered about the battery are set to 0. Which means, it's needs to be recalibrated in order to be fully efficient again. This takes a couple of charge and discharge cycles, so you should be good in a day or two.
The thing is, the battery isn't even causing any issues, it's not depleting faster than usual. The culprit is the OS (and this isn't different on any other platform). Since calibration starts back from scratch, it has no values to work with and that would help determine actual battery usage. In order to prevent any damage that could be caused by an entire discharge of the battery, smartphone OS'es shutdown at a critical level (typically 20%). Since it cannot yet reliable tell the usage patterns and impact on the battery, it shows a rather huge energy consumption. With more hours of usage, more reliable data is gathered and your battery will return to its normal behavior.

I can confirm said significant battery improvement

Those who are stuck on spinning gears, try this:
1) plug in your phone
2) do the soft reset (with the power button and volume down)
3) at the Nokia screen press Volume Up, Volume Down, Power, Volume Down (one at a time, quickly)
4) do the same sequence at the carrier logo screen (not sure which if it would help as my phone is unbranded)
5) let the gears run for about 10-20 minutes. If it doesn't finish up, do it at least 2 more times.

The above worked for me when my phone got stuck on gears after portico and after hard reset, though its not going to work on the 0x80188308 error lol. Hopefully the next update they roll out addresses it.

Anyone notice any UX changes?

Happened to someone.
Thank you

Updated on my Lumia 525, found no visible changes yet.
But after installing updates 2 hours ago, few apps are yet to be reinstalled. Their status is stuck on installing. Other apps got installed successfully though.

Installed successfully in 10 minutes without any battery loss..before update it was at 100% after update it is still on 100%..i guess I'm lucky
