I don't have gdr3 and neither black update ..and I don't want the hassle of dev preview ..just give the f***ing black so that I get the gdr3 with the update.. Annoyed!!
I would advise you to go ahead with the preview, as it gives all the features of the update except double tap to wake, which is surely not worth waiting for, as it will be available for all phones with the 8.1 update.I don't have gdr3 and neither black update ..and I don't want the hassle of dev preview ..just give the f***ing black so that I get the gdr3 with the update..

Is there any disadvantage of going for developer preview??I would advise you to go ahead with the preview, as it gives all the features of the update except double tap to wake, which is surely not worth waiting for, as it will be available for all phones with the 8.1 update.
NO IT WON"T VOID YOUR WARRARNTY , stop spreading this hoax news
who told you that? If it's a carrier locked device then warranty may get void. But as for country variant models the warranty will still be there.
Can anyone connect their 620 to a PC and check for Black firmware from NSU or Nokia Software Recovery Tool? Thanks!
Get GDR3 today: Microsoft announces Windows Phone Preview for Developers | Windows Phone Central
Any catches?
There are only a few caveats users face by participating
This only includes the OS update, not device specific firmware i.e. this is not Nokia's 'Bittersweet shimmer'; users should remain with their current firmware and will not lose it
You can only move forward, there is no ?going back? to earlier releases
You need at least OS version 8.0.10322.71 to participate
You will continue to receive the official update (and firmware) when they become publicly available, so there is no missing out of features, nor will you ever be behind
This will void your device warranty
Good luck, I warned you.
I didn't quite understand what you just said but here it goes.
I know what Bittersweet shimmer is. I have no idea what made you think that I am talking about Bittersweet Shimmer or Lumia Black cause I am not.
It won't be called the official update, nor a beta update. It's just the prerelease update for the developers to test their apps on.
What I am saying is that it clearly says that updating to GDR3 preview will void your warrenty. Its preview, not the consumer copy.
Ofcourse, the Nokia people will say that it's safe as it won't brick your device or cause bugs, as it's not a beta but prerelease, its for the developers.
I just gave my warning. If you want to install dev preview, fine you can do it.
No, no disadvantages, go right ahead. I already updated to GDR3 in NovemberIs there any disadvantage of going for developer preview??
I don't know but i am sure nokia Lumia 620 not coming Lumia black update.
