HTC 8x has started getting updates of the new OS. Any news on when Lumia phones will get the update?
No news, but I assume quite fast for unlocked phones. Rest are subject to carriers I assume.

Supposed to be able to bypass the carriers. But considering this is the first update pushed, I'm sure we'll learn more soon.

Bypass carriers, yes. Bypass OEMs, no
This should mean that we get a 920 update for each "build" of the 920 that exists, once Nokia does whatever they do to it. They should have it from Microsoft (one would think) already.

They will have it already, and it's in Nokia's interests to get it out fast and ideally beat HTC to the punch every time, as HTC have been set up as Premier Partners. Nokia want to be THE choice for WP8 buyers, so they need to be there first with the best reputation for updates and excellent hardware.
Nokia obviously has that build available because the Lumia 920T (the chinese variant) is already running that newer build of the OS.
true, must just be waiting for the rollout ok from carriers. I'll check my 8X to see if that's updating on EE, that way we should know if the carriers are slowing things down or not with a quick carrier vs unlocked update speed comparison.
(Groan) I hope it's not the carriers. Pulling teeth with oily fingers is easier than persuading AT&T to release updates in a timely manner. :\

That enthusiasts program hasn't rolled out yet. You have to sign up to this program in order to bypass your carrier.

how do you know what rom is a generic one? I have been searching but i haven´t find it yet. can you help me'
thanks in advance
Adding to that, does 4G still work on the generic UK ROM, as EE has 4G specific software bits, e.g. the 3G/2G toggle is now the 4G/3G toggle.
So, since I have a Rogers branded but unlocked phone and running it on Telus, what bucket would I be put in? Would I get the generic updates or the Rogers? My phone STILL says that the Mobile Operator Name is ROG-CA, so I'm not too sure what to make of my situation.

You will be under the mercy of Rogers. In order to get out of Roger's grip, you will need to be de-branded. SIM unlock means nothing. In the old days of WM7.0, you can jailbreak your phone and edit a registry to de-brand. Now, you pretty much have to flash a unbranded ROM to do it.

Did you get to avoid paying VAT on your purchase?
I'm pretty sure the update isn't rolled out by region, more like IMEI groups.
Isn't Market Place done by region your account is registered to? Maybe updates are the same?
You could also try conencting via a VPN in a region where it's released, see if it picks up an update?
I've had two updates so far, so would of thought most people would have had atleast one?
I did get to avoid VAT I'll check again tonight as another update was released. I just haven't received any messages telling me to update. Thanks for the info!

Then that's a really good price for it!
I really want this phone, but need to be sure that Internet Sharing will be enabled first, or it's a waste of my money.
Hey, keep us posted would you? I'm getting mine this Monday from Amazon and curious to see if Zune will detect the update in Burbank, Ca.
Need WiFi tethering as I use for my Kindle Touch WiFi, but it's not a deal breaker.
Also, one or two people have posted some anomalies with the update concerning the battery indicator. ..
Hey halfnelson.. does the phone accept your AT&T GSM SIM card as it is or did you have to cut it to a lesser size to fit?
Someone on O2 in Europe wrote they had to cut theirs?
The Lumia uses a microSIM, so yes it would need cutting (unless you had one already, of course).
I trimmed down my GIffgaff one no problem.

It did accept my regular sim after I cut it. Be sure to do it correctly, or else the contacts won't match up
I researched it and decided to wuss and shell out the $20 for a T-Mobile micro sim.. Will phone activate when I get the phone Monday. Failed too many shop and craft classes to trust myself cutting.
Hey any news on your update?
I've got another ? for the OP.
The website you bought from, with the best price I've seen, does not specific the WCMDA/HSPA bandwidths to differentiate if it's the quad-band or one of the two different tri-bands. Which carrier are you using here in the US and is the 3G fully functioning for you?

This is good to know, cuz the product page doesn't list them. I spent waaaay too long last night looking for a UK site that sells quad-band HSPA. Have it narrowed down to two, thanks to your confirmation here.
I'm kinda keen on the cyan.
Although many sites say they don't have the right bands, all the lumia devices have the bands I said above.

One Update Came Through - T-Mobile USA
So I have..
OS: 7.10.7740.16
Firmware: 1600.2475.7720.11414
But I am only getting Edge Data.
Have Hard Reset and I'm hoping that this is just a new SIM getting onto the system (customer service warned me to allow 2 hrs for full services)
Otherwise could be a deal breaker.
Hoping not; a chap at the TMobile store in Burbank where I live said another customer came in with the same phone bragging away on it so hope this is just a temp thing..
Beautiful device though!!
The Lumia doesn't do AWS, EDGE is the best you'll get from T-Mobile US.
Yep; I found that out... Hopefully AT&T will buy out T-Mobile..

Hopefully AT&T won't be able to buy T-Mobile. Talk about market concentration and increased rates. The acquisition doesn't mean that tmo phones will magically start working. The changes you'd hope to see would not be immediate.
Hello everyone,
I've been an android user for a year and a half now, but after getting a grip of a WP device I am surely making the switch, and the Titan has caught my eyes from the first sight!
I was wondering if anyone can give me some advice regarding where to get the phone from and what version should I get?
I live in the Middle-East and the phone is currently unavailable here but I want to get it from the internet, there are many versions of the Titan and I am not quite sure which one should I buy!
Here are the options I got and I don't know which one I should go with:
1- The AT&T version: I've read that the AT&T version had some problems regarding voice quality but its the cheapest among them all (around 500$ and I need to unlock it of course).
2- The international version -don't know what's it called really- factory unlocked on amazon for 675$.
3- The UK version on ebay for 600$, factory unlocked.
Considering the fact that I am kinda a noob regarding these stuff, I would like to hear your suggestions, what difference is there between all these three and what should I get for someone living on the other side of the world, also would like to know what the UK version differs from the others.
and is there a chance that the phone won't work with my carrier, what info should I ask them for and check before buying the device ?
thanks a lot for your time, any help is much appreciated
ATT is slow to release updates so I would recommend an international unlocked. You are gonna love the big screen and all the iPhones will be jealous saying it's too big. That's when I set my titan on top of theirs and say Iphone? I see no stinkin iPhone

I see, so that is a disadvantage for the AT&T version.

The AT&T one will *never* tether on any network other than AT&T. Not sure about the UK one.
You might want to investigate whether the int'l unlocked one can.
If it were me I'd get the int'l unlocked one, *unless* I specifically needed a UMTS band that that one does not offer.

since you own the UK version, may I ask you what differ is there between it and the international version ? (the UK version is cheaper by 75$) but I don't know if it'll work as I live in the middle-east and I don't know what to ask my carrier for to know?
thanks
I am not entirely sure about international version. But I think it probably not much difference hardware wise for sure. Since certain features of OS are limited to certain countries ir might be the case. E.g. Bing features, tell me services etc. It might be helpful if I say that even in UK version the radio is set to International.

Do a search though. In some countries Market won't have certain apps. The market ideally should work in all countries but some have lesser apps than others e.g. we don't have the Netflix app in the UK. Check out what Market looks like for your specific country. Unlikely you will have all the apps. It's more to do with MS sorting out the legalities etc for each country gradually..
iFan has their own bias, so i won't talk about it here.
AT&T Version always slow in the Update since AT&T have to test it and do whatever they want to the update before it can be published.
I have the X310e version from UK, unlocked and totally happy with it.
And with the international version, you have the "HTC" agent color, which is removed on the AT&T Titan.

HTC agent colour is also present in the UK version. So does this mean only the ATT doesn't have it? or is UK and international one the same thing?
The Apps in the market will be dependent on the Country given in your Live-Account. This can't be changed afterwards, so if you use an US-Account and someday Microsoft extends their Market to your country you're either stuck with the US Account (don't know if it will accept a Non-US-Creditcard - it doesn't accept european cards for US-Accounts as far as I remember) or you lose the Apps which are bound onto your US-Account and create a new one.
So those things will most likely have to be sorted out firt. The HTC-Titan as far as I know supports the same 3G Bands in all it's variants which makes it usable on pretty much any UMTS Network worldwide with only a few exceptions. The exact supported bands can be seen on the HTC Titans product page on htc.com
The UK version as far as I know is hardwarewise exactly the same as the international one, only difference might be in what UI languages are available (all keyboard languages are present since the Mango Update anyway although Middle-Eastern-Language support is currently expected to arrive with the Tango-Update - meaning it's not available yet).
Hope this helps and provides you with a rough idea of what troubles can arise.

The USA version is 850/1900/2100.
The UK version is 850/900/2100. The international version is probably the same as that one, but not sure.
The OP probably only needs 2100, so any of them will probably be just fine.
Now if we could only get a variant with AWS...

AT&T has a choice what to do with the ROM for their Phone. and they choose to remove the Agent Color HTC. I have heard it from multiple sources.

okay , let's say I get the UK unlocked version and use it in my country "Jordan" , I don't know where I read it , but as it seems every phone is region locked , and if I get a UK phone for instance I won't be able to get an update to my language for example (which is Arabic) .. is that correct ?
I don't know, its safer to get the international version even tho it's a 100 bucks more expensive , but I thought about asking you guys cause I don't know a lot about these stuff.

Hi guys i know this is the 800 section but i thought would put it here until its moved by admin
Tools needed
Nokia Care Suite 5.0.0 (2011.51.2) http://www.seidea.com/2011/12/28/nokia-care-suite-5-0-2011-51-2-63048/
NaviFirm Plus - http://www.symbian-toys.com/navifirm.aspx
Once you have installed Nokia care suite, install the drivers package for your version of windows - Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Drivers WinUSB Drivers x86 or x64
Download the Firmware needed from Navifirm should be about 12 files.
1. Launch Nokia Care Suite and open Product Support Tool.
2. Disconnect all phones from the computer and Turn the phone off
3. Select No connection from the connection drop-down menu.
4. From File menu select Open Product.
5. Search for 710 and click Open. RM-803
6. Now connect the phone with it tunred off, it will restart and be detected by the care suite
With the files you downloaded from Navifirm put them in
C:\ProgramData\Nokia\Packages\Products\ create a folder called Rm-803 if its not there
Now you need to rename the product codes of .dcp / .bin / vpl files to match your device code found on the right of nokia care suite product support tool.
Now the files are in place click programming from the tool bar and select refurbish.
Job Done.
I hold no responsibility if you screw your phone up.
Nicely done. It might be worth including product codes for unbranded models in the guide, would help people pick the right thing from the huge list in Navifirm.
I would be there all day as each country has Black and white devices.
You need to pick the firmware with Country Variant, The country you are in and what colour phone you have. There is no Country Variant for the UK yet with the latest 1600.3013.8107.11502 package in NaviFirm but you can download the older version 1600.3007.7740.11465
UK Black Product code 059N2L6
Germany Black Product code 059M5M0
France Black Product code 059N519
Italy Black Product code 059N0V8
Netherlands Black Product code 059N1Q9
Spain Black Product code 059N1M7
Fair enough, that would take a while, although I suspect no-one is going to care if they flash their phone with black or white variant, what difference can it make anyway?
I don't think it makes any difference, maybe Nokia have put some different themes in to match the colour of the phone.
There's no country variant for Canada. What happens if I flash the phone with a with say a UK firmware?
sutt359, are you sure the latest package is 1600.3013.8107.11505? Mine shows 1600.3013.8107.11502.
It will work fine with UK software. You might find you're missing something Canadian centric, though.
Canadian centric things, eh? I wonder what UK centric things I would find if I flashed with UK software.
Hi, im still kinda green to this whole thing (especially to wp7) and do not know how the thanks meter works, I do want to give thanks to sutt359 for this info. I think it will come in handy

If you wanted to you could brand it to o2, 1600.3013.8107.11502 using code 059N3C2.
If you want the debrand uk firmware then you will have to use 1600.3007.7740.11465 code 059N2L6. If you use that when the new firmware is out from nokia it will be pushed via zune.

Yeah whats up with the lack of North American roms. And you're right; on second thought, I probably shouldn't flash with non-North American roms. Just in case.
EDIT: I saw some people on here importing the 800 from online UK stores and using it in Canada a couple weeks ago. Oh well, I'll wait for bit.

You can flash any ROM you want. You won't brick the phone.
I'm on an imported UK Cyan Lumia 800. Several of us have been waiting for the North American ROM to see if it would free up the 850 3G band. I flashed both Black and Magenta ROMs for RM-819 and it didn't change affect the radios.
It's hard to brick a Nokia when you're just flashing other ROMs of the same model#.
This is probably an incredibly stupid question, so apologies in advance, but does this also sim unlock it?
It will not.

Does anyone know if this will be an OTA? Or should I just give up and install a rogers rom?
Been wondering about the developer edition Lumia 920.3 Portico update myself. I've been running it on T-mobile since November and no updates yet. Nokia needs to get their act together.

Same here. Love my 920, esp with T-Mobile...but it's starting to get irritating. They said the rollout finishes mid-March, which means we are technically still in the time frame they gave. However, I just wish one of the reps I talk with could let me know WHEN or IF they plan on updating the developer version. If not, I think I'm going to flash it to Rogers (or sell it and buy an ATT version when they become unlockable).

I don't think the Att versions will work on T-Mobile, and there's no way in hell I would ever be on Att. Our phone should have been the first ones upgraded since they were the first ones released.

Hey guys,
I have an unlocked AT&T Nokia Lumia 920 that I am using with a different carrier at the moment. I am still on Windows Phone 8 software and it says there are no updates at this time when I try to update the phone. Can I update it to Amber? Is there an Amber around that works with USA ATT Lumia 920?
Please help me out if you know, I see a lot of threads saying update to Amber but is this for like Europe phones or?
Please include a link if you have one for me to update it the right way.
Appreciate it all, thanks.
Amber has not been released for ATT devices yet. They still have to make their official ATT changes and bloatware before they will release for their devices.

That is not Amber though and is not supposed to be used by Average Joe Consumer. I suspect someday ATT or Nokia will send a bullet out that will kill all phones running Dev ROMS and are not registered as Dev phones. Dev ROMS allow people to get around certain parts of the system.

hahahahahha hahahahhahah LOL
AT&T Dev Devices are Nokia 920 phones, which where given on BUILD Conf. of Microsof....there is nothing to do with developers unlocked devices, which can be any Windows Phone registered in Microsoft with Developer account. The ROM is clean of any AT&T bull****s and only AT&T Device which has Amber update so far.

It is taking much longer than any other update. I think that they might be skipping GDR2 and going right to GDR3 which is going to be announced with the 1520/whatever they call it towards the end of this month.
