Had this last week, and its back. Just checked and got the same code, i think after a while it wasn't there when i decided to check again. Haven't bothered soft re setting personally, i don't think it indicates anything exciting (would love to be wrong) must be some issue with the servers perhaps?

Im still getting the same error, even after the reset. It will tell me my phone is uptodate, then when i check ten mins later I get the error code. It seems sporadic!

Have just used the 150 number to ask a rep why im experiencing issues trying to update my phone, with the reply "a new update will soon be sent to your phone, you don't need to check, you'll be notified", i asked if this update was imminent, the girl said yes.

Having said that, given EE's record imminent could mean next week!

I'm on EE and upated though the Nokia Retail thingy. It's not really worth the trouble to flash the phone for this update. Best to wait for it I think.

True! I wonder if she even understood what imminent actually means...

WPC and this thread is a much more reliable notification service than anyone could ask for however- i just know it will be here i hear about it being released first! I bet you anything the announcement tweets from EE (if at all) will be DAYS after i update :)

EE's 820 is also now 'coming soon'. Yay? Guess the 920 would be next week, with OTA a week later. Quite sad how often I visit the Nokia update page :(

Considering they no longer sell the 920, its probably low priority to them! The way they have treated these updates, speaks volumes for their lack of commitment towards WP generally!

EE still dragging their heels, gonna bite the bullet and flash.

Which is the generic UK one? Cheers

Don't man, there is a problem with the camera's post processing and the pictures come out crap. Also it's not worth resetting your phone and losing your tiles just for a clock on the screen and a radio. I'm on EE and I wish I never flashed it.

Before image processing on Amber:

MrWhiteman is correct. There's nothing really worth wiping your phone for. I flashed my EE 920 a bit ago with the French Amber ROM and don't know why I bothered. Now my phone won't get the EE OTA updates I believe, so I will flash back to the EE ROM when GDR3 appears :)
Nothing in GDR2 has made any real difference to how I use the phone tbh...

Cheers. Is this problem also evident on the CV ROM?

hi,im waiting for the official release as it might be next week although id hate the though of EE stalling on updates because they dont stock the 920 anymore, afterall all us people who bought the phone when it was 1st released were classed as the saviors of NOKIA:asleep:

I've noticed when taking pictures with the pro cam, if I instantly look back at the picture I've just taken I get a normal picture for half a second or so then is oranges up a little.
If I take the picture and then view it in HD Photo Viewer it doesn't appear orange. If I then look back to the pic in Pro Cam it looks fine.

Odd.

EDIT: Just looked at what was uploaded to skydrive and the one viewed in Pro Cam first is more orange than the one I saw in HDPV.
