Customers tin can also cheque the availability of the update from the Outset screen by scrolling down to and borer Settings > Phone Update > Check for Update. All customers volition be notified of the update by January 7, 2022."

T-Mobile and HTC are planning to update the 8X with a similar update starting tomorrow equally well.

And so far, the OS and firmware update have made our Lumia 920 fifty-fifty better than before. The update should too bring some fixes and enhancements for the Lumia 820, though nosotros're not sure what exactly those are. We exercise expect, withal, to get a full details about the Nokia's changes sometime tomorrow, so stay tuned to Windows Phone Primal for all your Windows Phone needs!
