Why don't I have Cyan?

People are saying Cyan has released for the UK on 1320, I have an unlocked 1320 running on Windows Phone 8, not 8.1 and do not have the update, why is this?

Factory unlocked (ie country variant), or unlocked from another network... the two are quite different. If it's unlocked from another network then you are stuck with the release schedule of the original network - despite who you're using now.

I got it from Ebay unlocked.

Country Variant unlocked or was it just advertised as unlocked?

Look in settings, and 'about'. If the carrier says "CV GB" then it's a SIM free one that was unlocked when it left the factory.

Sadly, that's your problem. Always worth double checking things like that, especially where Ebay is concerned.

Well, this sucks.

I don't know about the 1320, but I know I could flash a different ROM onto my 920 and make it a country variant instead of being tied to a carrier's firmware. Maybe you should do research on that. Your phone would stay unlocked no matter what.

Least it's out for your family of phones - I've got a 620. You'll get it quicker than I will lol.
