Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1 rolling out to Developer Preview users

Microsoft is rolling out the Update 1 release for Windows Phone 8.1 Developer Preview versions, as Microsoft promised they would do last week.

WPCentral has received a number of tips from readers who have installed the Developer Preview version of Windows Phone 8.1 on their smartphones, telling us that they have a new update to download.. These reports are collaborated by similar reports in posts in our message board forums.

One tipster send us the screenshot of his update, shown above, which shows the versions numbers of what looks like two separate updates: 8.10.12400.899 and 8.10.14147.180. It would appear that the latter version numbers is in fact Update 1.

As we have reported before Update 1, also known as GDR 1, adds a few new features to Windows Phone 8.1. The biggest feature is Live Folders, which allows users to dynamically create folders on the Start screen. Other new features include the Apps Corner, SMS merge and forwarding and much more. It should also add Cortana support for the UK and China, and India, Australia, and Canada residents can check out the US version of Cortana officially for the first time.

What do you think of Microsoft releasing Update for Windows Phone 8.1 Developer Preview users and if you are one of them, what do you think of the new features and improvements.

Thanks to all of our readers who tipped us!

I know you're probably quite annoyed with all of these responses, so I apologize if I am adding to that. I am an Xbox fan and so was quite disappointed when I wasn't invited to be a beta tester (I strangely seem to miss out on all of these things), so an invite would be outstanding if it is not too much trouble. Thanks! My gamertag is HarbingerOfAres

Hi Friend, I'm in India and facing freezing problems with my Lumia 920 purchased last year in December 2013. The phone is currently with Windows Phone 8.1 Cyan update. Since then the screen freezes once a week or sometimes once in 2-3 weeks. Please suggest how can I install 8.1 Update 1 Developer Preview in case if it has addressed any of the issues prevailing. Please suggest. Thanks Mukund
Me too? :) TortuousSplash
Hey! I'm crazy looking for the update! Can you send me an invite as well bro? My GT is Antonopoulos92

Just seen a screenshot appear on my twitter timeline from one of my friends back in the UK :) https://twitter.com/ZeroInfinite/status/496269000876523520
Hahaha wpcentral today you guyz are late. And users are lookin mpre advance.
Or you know time zones
I think on the contrary we should thank wpcentral team for educating us and making us aware of these things.. Thanks Guys!!
Well, they do help some of us. I, for one only recently did a hard reset and just now realized that I forgot to sign in through the developer preview app. :D
I did the same, thank you wpcentral for the updates!
Haha you are so stupid. Why are u even on this site posting u mindless fool.
Updating my 620 right now :D
Me too :) 620 FTW! :D

My 720 pakistan Cv
did you install it ,i had the update now it is stuck on boot installation?
Me too
lucky u
Read this article, checked for update, and installed it. But I cannot create folders as far as I know...
Okay, these folders are pretty fancy looking.
1020 is updated. Most of my issues have gone away. Much faster overall, WordFlow is even faster.
Yeah Pretty darn cool! I love the way they implemented it.
Live Folders are surprisingly good! Quick and smooth to open, and the animation of the micro-tiles dropping out is cute too. Beats the pants off App Folders, but that was always a stop-gap. This makes playlists much more useful: you could always pin XBM playlists, but for some reason the small tiles had no title, so you couldn't tell them apart unless they were at least medium-sized: daft. But now I can put a bunch inside a folder, and not have them take up the whole screen! Games! By putting all my games in one folder, it's like having the old hub back! Way the hell faster than using the Games app, which is totally pointless now.
Where do you find the settings to do the folders?
There are no settings for the folders. You simply drag one live tile on top of another live tile and it forms a folder, just like in iOS and Android. You and resize the live tiles within the folder as well, and all live tiles show the number when you get a new message. Also, still shows up in Action Center. Example: If you get an email for Yahoo, Yahoo icon shows a 1 on the small icon in the live tile folder. You will also get a notification in the action center. Tapping the live tile folder expands the folder to show all the live tiles within it (Yahoo Live Tile shows email if set to "wide", shows number of emails if set to Med or Small). Tapping the Yahoo live tile opens the Yahoo email and you can read it. To move a live tile out of the folder, just tap the folder, expand and drag the live tile out of the folder onto your start screen. Hope this helps.
Yes they are very...very nice! We just need the ability to create any size tile we want and the circle will be complete. I'd like my folder to take up the entire row and a 1 to 2 tile wide vertile tile option at least.
where is the samsung update for 8.1 ? The legal one not the developer mod
Someone doesn't know what legal means...
Not working, it downloads ok, starts installing then stops with the error cannot be opened, tried 5 times, this sucks donkeys.
My login at developer mode could not connect do to mail account fail ! my backup account is not in order anymore ! 30 day waiting period ! And other steps as found on google also no good outcome ! So now i have to wait for the update for regulars .
Uhhm need help.My 521 has been updating for hours...
downloading already :)
How much size to download?
It does not tell as far as I'm concerned
One hundred percents
+100
LOL
Its 21 MB.
you've been fooled spidey!
Around 180MB
Hell yeah!
i have just downloaded the developer for preview. but i have not registered as paid user. how do i download it on my lumia 620 ??
I'm guessing you're taking about a paid developer account. But if your a casual user, just create an app studio account. Search wpcentral for "Preview for developers". You'll get the answer.
Its free just register for free developer account.
Around 200mb. Checked using Data sense
That's plenty big!
I LOVE LIVE FOLDERSS!!! :D
How do you get to them? I just installed the update and I don't see it.
Press and hold a tile like you're going to resize it and drag it on top of another tile. Give the folder a name, resize the tiles in the folder if you want. Play around, have fun.
Thank you! I guess I just wasnt lining them up correctly.
Thanks for the tip! I was going crazy trying to find how the Live Folders worked!
I have a 1520 with official AT&T 8.1 + Cyan. I had to rollback to 8.0 to get that. I knew this update 1 was coming this week, so I reinstalled preview for developers, and I have the update plus kept cyan and all the rest. Beautiful.
I started thw download. Bring it on :)
Bing it on? :D
Awesome!!
Still showing "Your phone is up to date"....
Make sure you've checked the box in preview for developers app
Yup, it's checked but there's no update :/
Hmm that's weird i got the update after the second try !
Maybe its still not world wide available... btw I'm from Serbia..
Why would you still have the preview for developers app installed? It doesn't do anything after the initial set up?
Sure it does. It enables you to get updates like today's.
Restart your phone and try again (If you haven't tried yet)
Hmm
Very deep
Is he still thinking?
Updating my 1520
I know this wasn't confirmed but rumored but does anyone know if double wide, double height tile is in this update?
According to Daniel, it was a faked rumor. Then again, several Nokia Facebook pages published different pictures but with the same double-height tile.
I think that the apps have to specifically enable the double wide/high tiles with an update when the SDK has support for it, if they included the new sizes.
Can the update 1 be downloaded over 3g connection
it isn't.
what country are you in ? Nothing yet on my 1520 in UK
I have 1520 in UK. Its almost 3pm and I've checked through developer preview app and update is now downloading
Downloading here in Italy...Lumia 820 DP
Downloading here in Philippines. +1320
Hi.. im also from the Philippines, how were you able to get the update? thanks! Nothing shows when i check for update.
Do you have a developer preview installed?
Developer preview? er.. no? is that an app? How do i get that?
Yup. Its an app. Download directly from the store and when installed, accept the terms and conditions. Go to settings then check your phone update. Bam!
Perfetto
Downloading in Mexico
+720 :D
How much is the update size for 720??
153mb (data sense info)
Were you able to download over data, not Wi-Fi?
Downloading here in Egypt +520 :D
+520 Brazil ;D
Downloading in Belgium as well...
+930
Do anyone knows what will the new features in this?
Lol don't you follow the wpcentral news?
Big is, native folder support
Cortana in beta form or the UK and China...
I guess you don't visit this site too much :D You might want to read this, http://www.wpcentral.com/official-update-1-windows-phone-81-next-week-preview
Most important is Cortana alpha.. For India!
You're lucky! Here in Sweden WP is growing fast (according to one of the biggest SPs polls WP was the best mobile OS available) and Cortana will never get here probably, like Bing Rewards, Siri, TellMe or any real voice command or PA. Wouldn't mind if Cortana was speaking English as long as she understand Swedish, specifically å,ä,ö.
I'll second this from Denmark...!
how do you use that? I'm in Australia
Yes, it offers you to read the article first before posting.:)
Checking
Well, damn! Posted via Windows Phone Central App
Currently downloading it on my 820
Can't find the folders option
i haven't got the update installed yet, but i think you drag a tile onto another tile
Yeah.. Just drag a tile onto another tile and let go. Folder opens which can rename. Tap folder to open folder view and again to close. Live thumbnails toi. Very nice!!!!
Love the new folders option, it is smooth and looks great, and really easy to use.
Just open App Folders/Create a Folder/Give it a name/Add App...
That's...not what he was talking about...
I figure it out later but the post was alrady up... Sorry SABIONDO..
Yea that's defintely not working and neither is mulitple select on text messages for forwarding or deletion. Hmm interesting it looks like it failed to update on the HTC 8X
In the post it says there might be two updates at the same time, maybe you only received the first one and will get the other one later today.
Just hold an app on top of another for a longer period of time :p I couldn't get it to work at first too :)
Downloading as I type this
OMG ME TOO BUT AS I TYPE THIS!
Me too
Installing as i type this
Making a call while installing :)
Enjoying the new app folders while typing this. Heeeyyyyy....
Ok, ok. I was dictating it.
Fantastic start into the new week
The cogs they be turning! ;) Cortana UK better not sound ridiculous..
My Bing.co.uk does not show interests yet. i guess cortana will not be active yet
I'm not getting much in the form of voiced responses. All seems a little lame at the minute but I'm sure that will quickly improve.
I am happy that I am getting cortana in India at all!
yeah...... i can change my loc to uk now.... using UK cortana than US is more convenient to Indians...
do we have to change our location to US to get cortana on gdr1.???
No!!,,, you get to automatcially but to use it you have to change language to either UK or US
Can you please explain , am not getting.
How to use cortana in India
To use it you have to change language to either UK or US
did u get cortona ???
Yup now alpha edition available for india
Sorry but she sounds terrible :(
Yes she is... Cm back to us Cortana.. Jen voice is amazing..
Oh god I must till tomorrow
Same here,
Oh yeah! and to think I was about to go to sleep..
Mines downloading in Australia (1520) - woohoo!
Me too! Can't wait to try Cortana :D
Did you guys get Cortana(Au) and mine is jus 12400.899 but not with the later version...
Yeah me too cant wait to see what the Cortana Alpha is like, finally metric measurements!!!
Did you manage to get Cortana to work for AU?
I did. You HAVE to use the UK speech settings, and the voice is BLOODY ATROCIOUS. UGH! I'm swapping my phone right back to US regional settings. I swear to God, they better make it so you can choose which voice you want. This shit is TERRIBLE.
Yeah managed to get it. Now I have to chose between metrics or better sounding Cortana :/
It's much better. Quit overreacting. More importantly, Cortana is still shit. No voice responses, just web searches.
Dang....what to do...I have tthe app installed just have not activated yet....
Oh well....installing now
Yay! Download in progress on my 620.
UPDATE: The update's size is 173.9 MB.
UPDATE 2: You need 375.98 MB of free storage space to install it.
Nice! Thanks!
can I download it using cellular or I have to use wifi
When the download poped up, it asked me if i want to wait for WIFI or download using cellular
you have to use wifi. can't download via cellular data.
Wifi only as the update is big.
yeah you're right, I don't have wifi now so I have to wait until tomorrow
Thanks!
Updating my Lumia 930
Did it install ok
It's not GDR1 update, just 899 version
+ HTC 8X
If you don't have the 899 build you get that + the GDR1 build in the same download.
Try again and you will got a 14147.180 after a 12400.899...
With me is the same, i've tried several times, but with no success!
I tried but nothing happened :(
Another 8X user here that is only getting the 899 update. GDR1 and UK Cortana are MIA.
Check the Preview app, it may have been deactivated.
Same here. I'm on .899 now but no other update available. HTC 8X
Same. Just got the 12400.899 update on my 8X, but no other update is available.
+8X :/
Another 8X here, so far 899
Same here. My 8X only got 899.
pynhp9x, same thing here on my HTC 8x bro. I have the .899 version, I tried to search for more and nothing happens.
Another htc 8x user, don't know if this matters but I updated to 899 a few weeks back, when ms suddenly stopped the update for people (I managed to get it before it stopped)
Me too
Nothing for the 8X :(
Yup, same here.
Same here....only the 899. No GDR1 For 8X..weird.
Yes no GDR1 for 8X :(.....No Cortana...
I'm going to restart from scratch and see if i get the update.
HTC 8x user here. I have the same problem too....:'(...what to do
-8x :(
Has anybody with htc 8x got it? Mine is still on 899
Same here, i really regret that I bought this peace of shit HTC left us, no apps, nothing, if you like Windows phone buy a Nokia is the only choice, i want to throw this peace of shit to a sour
my gf bought a htc 8x after showing her many features my 1020 has, she ditched it and got lumia also, u don't even get sms+ call filter with htc but you get with lumia,no glance also, lol and so much more
8x on .899... My guess is they haven't enabled it for the 8x yet
I already have the .899. I think it's an old update. Waiting for gdr1
BOTH my 920 and 930 are installing now! EXCITED for CORTANA UK and folders yay! Didn't expect that today at all!
I was betting on Friday. Thought they were going to be cheeky about it!
oh man. i like it
DP on 1520.1 in Dubai.. Got it What about Cyan?
شو الفرق بين ١٥٢٠.١ و١٥٢٠.٢ و١٥٢٠.٣
مادري
ال 1520.3 يدعم التردد حق أي تي ان تي و تي موبيل في أمريكا.
بالنسبة للباقيين، في واحد يدعم ترددات الشبكات الأوربية و الدول العربية... و الثاني يدعم تردد شبكة أي تي ان تي في أمريكا بس (يجي 16 قيقا بس + ما فيه خاصية الشحن عن طريق Qi) .
Did you not get Cyan? I did but I didn't actually seen any changes to my OS other than an arrow and Extra+Info telling me it's Cyan.
Look at the change log for cyan it was really under the hood performance and bugs fixes is what firmware updates are for the os updates is what we get new features from
Yippeeeee
confirmed! :)
Downloading on my HTC 8S :) Romania.
Are the bugs gone on 8.1? And is it still laggy?
No bugs for me, but sadly no GDR1. I only got the 899 update.
Does advanced settings works in iexplorer?
Will Office web apps work seamlessly?
same f**kn boat, my friend...
Just .899... Wtf is going on? Microsoft is slippin up...
I'm downloading it RN really excited
Stuck in checking for updates...
same here
It will finish, just be patient.
I noticed that, every time there is an update it takes slightly longer to check for an update.
That figures, mine checked for 20 mins..
I guess it's longer if you don't have all the updates, I have to get the 899 update as well.
"preparing to install" sure taking a long time with this one. fingers crossed.
server quite busy ,everyone pulling update that's why
Updating my unlocked 920 in Canada
did it work?
estimate time downloading?
Took me 10 minutes on a fast connection.
thank you for reply :)
Because we are watching and waiting....forever. ;)
I am STILL waiting for my update from T-Mobile USA. Apparently AT&T Wireless has rolled theirs out a while ago. I have a Nokia Lumia 925. I don't have the developers version. T-Mobile still shows as "under testing".
that's T-Mobile for ya
Yeah, I think I'm switching to AT&T. Better coverage plus my Lumia 925 has been unlocked so I can use it on AT&T. Might do that today actually.
yeah man, you should , mine is currently downloading , it's at 3 % now, well the WP Update 1 that is , I have a 1020, don't have Cyan as yet but will take care of that when time comes doing downgrade or i just might wait it out.
I'm in the same boat as you. I have a 1020 and I'm going to wait for Cyan, I'm not downgrading.
I'm switching to AT&T from T-Mobile real soon to.
I switched from T-Mobile (after almost 8 years) to AT&T a little over 2 years ago after the Lumia 710 banished from support and poor coverage in the area that we moved to. Since then, AT&T has been excellent and I have had the best Windows Phones, the 520, 920, 1020 and 1520. Stellar coverage, low prices (Thanks to T-Mobile pushing the wireless industry to give more for less) and great Windows Phones. AT&T is turning around their old image of being slow to update their devices as well. I highly recommend AT&T if you live in a good coverage area and can get great prices. I don't care for AT&Ts biased in store reps though as I have had better experiences in T-Mobile stores when it comes to Windows Phone.
I moved into a new house and have crappy t-mobile signal here. I've never had a coverage issue before. I got WiFi which is $50 monthly, just so I could use WiFi calling here. Now, I don't get 1/2 my calls or texts on WiFi. I have a $70 t-mobile plan. I am now spending $120 a month for service. At&t has full LTE coverage on my home, no WiFi needed. Also, I want a high end Lumia, which t-mobile just doesn't have. I have a Lumia 925 with t-mobile and love it,no just want a bigger screen, better camera and powerful processor like the Lumia 1520. So I'm leaving tmo for at&t, even though I like t-mobile. Tmo has no signal in my house and only 2g outside. I go down the street a mile and have LTE lol.
This update will only come to Developer Preview. If you wait for the official update, this will come later for you. On the other side, those of us with preview will not have Cyan firmware on Lumia devices. Unless a fix is included here, but I doubt that.
Oh I understand that this update is only for developers, I was just stating that I have not got my official from my carrier and at&t has already pushed theirs to customers.
Then you are in the same shoes as about 95% of us.
any one can sign up for the dev preview. I don't hve the links, but they are here on the site somewhere.
At&t has only rolled it out for 3 of their phones. They arepretty slow with it as well.
You have to be patient, T-Mobile has a handful of features that AT&T does not, like Wi-Fi calling and needs to design them, and then get then approved by Microsoft, if it takes longer, that most likely means there is more features for T-Mobile users to enjoy
100% and preparing to install :)

mine now checking for the update........taking a while i must say
Should I install this update if I dont have Lumia Cyan on my phone??
You can install it with no prob
Yes.
But MS may not have fixed the Bitlocker bug, so you may not be able to install Cyan immediately after its release.
Happening for me. Woot
Downloading right now on lumia 930 from Denmark
I have an update to install, but no WiFi to install it with until I get back from work :(
Same here :( it used to be possible to force it to download without WiFi - that's how I downloaded 8.1.. Did they remove that option?
Use some other phone, make a hotspot and connect your phone.
Didn't have another phone at that time. Already installing now. :)

Restart your phone and try again. I didn't get that this time, but in the past that has happened to me and a simple reboot took me right into the update. Could be coincidence, but could also be the proper mojo! LOL
Had to restart phone also.
I think plug the charger will help

Were you successful in installing the update? I'm receiving an error.
I got the error message too, trying a second time now.
also got the error, trying again...I had a funny feeling that was going to happen
Still have the error...
three tries, three errors, I give up - live folders just not that interesting, but I would like to use the Canadian alpha of Cortana...
Error here too, do you guys have Cortona setup? Maybe we have to switch back to our country
I had cortana setup. I got the update, then switched region back to Canada and still have cortana working.
Downloading on my Lumia 925 in Russian
why only in Wi Fi?????????///????
Cause at times updates are too large and MS restricts it to WiFi as not to chew up your data plan.
They allowed us to download 8.1 without WiFi. Is Update 1 bigger than 8.1?
Hmm don't know. I had always thought updates we're restricted to WiFi....
Might be that I was tethering it back then. But with smaller updates it was definitely possible.
Its a small update it take only 5min to download and install !!
Ms should let us update in mobile network as well...
Downloading on my Icon now.

No,it's an OS update. Cyan is a firmware update.
Cortana is awful in the UK. No jokes, impressions... Nothing. Everything is directed to a Bing search apart from the weather. Not good!!!!
Thats why is in Alpha stage :)
UK is supposed to be beta
Truth. My bad. Did you try to do a soft reset?
I tried saying Hello to cortana, how are you, where is master chief, etc. All redirects me to Bing search :/

Very good question!
Yes you will 100%, don't worry about that.
Okay thanks. I already downloaded it is time to install
But there is NO guarantee that MS has fixed the Bitlocker bug and resumed Cyan updates for preview phones.
Downloading now in Tokyo! I just watched the Chinese video again, and decided to do a check! Very excited! Anxious to see the new folders feature, which looks awesome. Also, let's see this huge update to Music. I definitely need some good news there! Unlocked AT&T 920
The folders are simply beautiful! Best execution I've seen on any mobile platform. The live tiles approach us really beginning to show its power!

Make sure you have checked your Developers Preview App and that you have gone through the agreement. That is caught me on the last update.
L625 UK getting it now
Really! I've had no luck I'm on o2... Plz help!!!
AT&T 920 in the US no update available. :(
Have you signed up with dev preview? (a free appstudio account? And installed the "preview for developers app"?) then check again... It's there!
Hi. I think i was taken away by aliens in last couple of weeks because i don't even have update on my 1020 yet. Never mind this. What the hell is wrong here. ???
This is a developer preview. Meaning you will get future updates before regualar users or before the official updates are released. There is an app in the store that gives us the developer preview. All you have to do is download and sign up within the app and it will update your os.
Downloading on my 8X, so I'll be working until late today =D

Is der anybody having issues with dis update??

Had an error installing update, trying to update it second time
Won't install for me either, I think it's because I've already got Cyan (unlocked 925).
I ja isto evo treci put pokusavam
Probao 3 puta, vise ne znam ni da li da pokusavam, stalno mi izbacuje gresku 0x80188308. Puna baterija, dosta memorije... L920
Ista stvar i kod mene. Uradio restart, ocistio temp,IE, reinstalirao preview for developers i opet nista na L925. Kod zene na L520 uradjen bez problema. Ne radi mi se nokia recovery nikako
Ja sam odlucio da sutra pokusam ponovo, verovatno su serveri preoptereceni ili tako nesto. Ako uspes nekako da resis problem obavesti :)
Yup, its redownloading all my apps. My wife is having the same issue.
strange , for my 1020,i didn't had to download ANY of my apps i already have, working good here
I was... Error code after 8.10.12397.985 update & reboot... But finally downloading... Probably connection related... Toggled Wi-Fi worked for me, you can also reboot, and try again if it fails
No issues
Dont have the update and can we instal it only with wifi ???? Anyone ????
Yes. Just keep checking for updates. Servers are busy and it'll take some time like 2,3 min.
Downloading. 925. Brasil.

Guys, slow down! Not all at once! :D (stuck at 0%) edit: I get "You need to connect to WI-FI to download the update." and have no way to skip that. Did they remove the option to download it anyway? o_O
Just click ok and install....I was on WiFi and had the same msg as you....
All went good...Done....
As far as I know updates this big are Wi-Fi only.
May depend on data settings for data sense as others have downloaded by 4G ota.

Downloading now for 920 in Dominican Republic.
Dude does cortana work on Dominican republic?
Downloading now
Got the update here in Australia but when I start Cortana it says, "I'm Sorry But I Can;t Speak Your Language Yet" Any ideas guys?
I'm still waiting for mine to finish downloading and installing. Did you change your locales and try another phone update? It may be a separate section for the alpha Cortana? Just a stab in the dark...
i guess ur language needs to be us/uk English with Australia as region
Yeah I fixed the language problem by changing from English/US to English/UK
Even I am getting the same here in India..What to do??
Same problem! India
Ok download English uk as main keyboard and set UK as speech language
Fuuuuuu not downloadable via 4g -.-
I've downloaded it, via 4g.

And here in Greece my lumia 520 is still waiting for wp8.1.... :(

The update was downloaded, but could not be opened. (8018830f)
Same
Same here (Ativ S)
Me too (Ativ S)
Likewise, do you have Cyan installed? That's what I think it stopping it for me.
They're using ATIV S. They do not get Cyan as that is Nokia firmware.
And me, too (Ativ S). Feck.
Third time cant install. Error 80188308. Ativ S also. :(
Error 80188308 - try again .
I'm on my third try Ativ S
Same here. Apparently happening on devices with and without the Cyan update.
Even m getting same error buddy, I already got cyan update
Same here. 925 with cyan.

No.
Thanks.

I haven't got the update for my phone in India... Lumia 520.. Can anyone help me??
No
I waited for 15 mins, then got an error saying unable to download.
But now it's back on track.
i got update im frm india l520 which mobile u r using
u signed up for developers preview?
I think you mean corroborated, not collaborated.
Ahhhhh updating my 1020 :D #Barcelona #spain
Downloading on my 930! So excited for UK Cortana...
Don't get too excited. They said Australia too but it just says it doesn't speak my language (which is English, funnily enough)
How to allow update using data? Is it depending on my data provider?
Wouldn't recommend updating anywhere you can't plug it in. Can take some time, and it'll only take longer on data.
India 520
Checking for updates took long as 15 mins. Then restarted the phone. Now saying we are currently unable to check for updates ( 80072ee7)

good point, I Hope not. I have the cog wheels spinning now
I gotta update ! Yay!!
Is it update 1??
Read the article.
The title of the article says so....
Downloading in UK on my 1020
Can any one please tell me what is the difference.. i have installed it but found nothing new...
App folders and better rendering of web sites using IE 11. Hold down an app on top of another app on the start screen and you have a folder. Yay :)
The update is more than FOLDER we can feel, some minor improvements really nice out there.
Read the article
I'm excited about update but its all a ploy to make us forget about Xbox music update lololol...
The next Music update needs the 8.1 Update 1 and brings the Live Tile back :)
downloading it on my L1020 in Hungary ;)
No update here in New Zealand for my 8x. Keeps telling me my phone is up to date. :(
Got it- Australia :)
No update on my 8X either. I'm in Jordan
It seems like htc 8x is out of the game globally.
Whaaaaaaaaaayyyyy!!!
Same phone & same problem.
same here, really sucks!
Come to papa!!!!
Got an update! Now just waiting to get home and connect to wifi. Yeah!!!
Installing 50% hurry up lol
just received the update 1 on my lumia 925. It is downloading
Just got my update . Too bad Verizon sucks and hasn't
sent out cyan yet
Update also available in Ecuador!!!!!!!! yes this place exists XD
I'm so happy! :) way to wake up this morning! ;)
MS promised NTP support. It isn't in the update!
Present some kind of evidence.. otherwise just empty speech. Just because you failed to find it, it may be there, just not in the way simple-minded users expect it to be shown.
I'm sorry, but - what? There's simply no option for "set time and date automatically" in the date+time menu entry after the update. Trust me, I would be able to find the option
I have had NTP since I first got my Lumia 920 in 2012. I know another carrier in my country doesn't have NTP on their variants of Lumias.
I think you might confuse NTP with NITZ? NTP came with this recent update. At least that is what was promised. For many/some (?) users there was an option to automatically set time and date before this update, but that worked with NITZ. And in my country/my operator doesn't provide this service
I agree with what you explain. Readers of this site should not be able to comment on technical topics that they dont have even the smallest idea what they are talking about. Unfortunately commenting to such technical topics cannot be restricted to min. of 5 years working experience in the IT professional industry (excluding people who work in the IT but their job description is to clean the wheels of the mice).
does this include cyan and mean that I don't have to roll back my 1520 to get cyan?
No, it doesn't. Cyan is a firmware and not an OS.
Just gdr1 no cyan
Hi. Just so you know , rolling the Lumina back to windows 8 is very easy to do and only takes 10 mins Tops. Then your small update is ready to download, then the big one. Then if you turn on your pfdev this update should be ready also. theres no problems in doing all this
I GOT A PROBLEM WHEN UPDATING - BE CAREFUL GUYS! I started the install of the update after downloading and my Lumia 1520 on HK image (I love in Australia) restarted and went to this screen http://imgur.com/hmKFpUU I forced it to reset but it looks like it's stuck on the spinning gears, it loaded the bar like 5% and hasn't moved in 5-10 minutes now.
That happens sometimes. Give it time. The spinning gears can take a while (for me it's usually an hour).
D/L NL925 with PFD 8.1 USA MetroPCS
Ah, checking right now! :D
On my phone the 899-Version is installed, but the 14147.180 Version won't appear in the updates. I'm checking the updates since and nothing will appear... :( I wan't Cortana. ^^
Has any 8X received 14147.180 update yet?
My 8X only seems to have gotten 12400.899 as well.
Preview only for Lumia ?? Noooooooooo
No- only the .899 update here on T-Mobile US.
Same here in 8X, only one update no GDR 1 !!!!!!
Looks like the 8x and 8s didn't still got it
Isn't that puzzling the developers preview usually rolls out for all devices at once, why we can't get it??
My question is if I'm to update my phone using developer update will I also be able to update to the official update?
No, unless the official OS will have a higher version number. But you'll get the official firmware (as they aren't distributed as previews) if its updated for GDR1.
Please help does this update include fix for dev preview /cyan. Issue
Nothing that they have mentioned about.
Updating!!
Downloading.. ;)
Rolling out to my 1520 in India now!! Woohoo!
Downloading, Samsung Ativ S.
I just got a Lumia 1020 and I've been trying to wait for the official everything since running the developer preview on my 920 but I think I'm ready to pull the plug. Besides the one bug they had the DP has been almost flawless.
i think you should wait bro, 920 and 1020 should get cyan this week
After downloading and then preparing to install it says it cannot be opened, anyone else 925 unlocked developers preview and with cyan????? Tried several times
Same thing here. Seems it won't work with Cyan. Hope they have a workaround soon.
Facing the same issue. I am on Lumia Cyan on L925.. my friend with L920 (with 8.1 DP) is also facing same error.
Cant check updates now with error code?????
That means that the internet connection is slow
L920 & L720. Indonesia. Downloading the updates.
Those who are in India, did u get the indian version of cortana with this update or are u guys and gals with United States Cortana.
I guess here's no girl in wpcentral from India at least.
Yes
Mine is downloading
Totally thought we would have to wait untill weeks end. Downloading now. Thanks MS.
with everyone downloading all at once of course it'll take a while
I hate download limitations why the hell do I need unlimited data for.
Getting on my Lumia 1320 in India. I was thinking they'd release it on the 5th, in my time zone...but its great to get it today itself.
Can anyone please tell me if i install wp8.1 dp on my new lumia 1320 would i lose my warranty... India..
Yes it may void your warranty but once the official rolls out u r back on warranty.....Take a risk and install it on your lumia 1320...I have already installed on my Lumia 925 India....
+1320
I do not think it will void the warranty as long as you are doing everything "officially"... This is an official update. The developer preview program is an official one. So, no, I do not think it will void the warranty. It should not. Also, the warranty does not cover physical damage. If anything goes wrong on the software end, the warranty covers it, but you can fix that yourself without needing to use a Nokia Care Centre.
It voids manufacturer warranty
No.
Downloading on L1020 in AR. I hope I get Cyan soon...
Downloading as I saw the link on Facebook.
Let me guess, no ones managed to install it?
It's natural, usually this kind of updates takes about an hour to complete the installation.
Was refering to the failed installations... I.e. havnt seen a comment yet where someone actually has it working
I think this is what MS should do, roll out unexpectedly, it'll save us from all those anxious moments, I don't have dp, nor am planning to install, but you guys happiness is radiating and I feel happy too, waiting for the official update.
Downloading, as we speak!
Whole lotta downloading, not much installing going on. Failed 5 times now
First it said 300+mb to download the update and after installing it said 1.5+ gb Posted via Windows Phone Central App

Installing on Lumia 1320 with Cyan in India but after the update downloads and tries to install it says "update couldn't be opened 8018830f". Any ideas?

I have the same issue, on which version are you? I have the 8.1.12397.895 May be is it due to the fact that I have not recevied the 8.1.134...?

Nice!!! Downloading Lumia 620 Domican Republic :D
Yeah its started
God dammit I am still stuck on 8.0 hoping for MS or my country to release 8.1 this Thursday for my 1020. I cant wait anymore.......!
The only problem is the Cyan firmware. I can't restore and backup alot of times as its time consuming. This Thursday or I am going for PFD.
Oh Yes, downloading here in Czech Republic on 1520 !!
bro wait, i have DP8.1 and now DP 8.1 Update 1 but i'll have to do all backup,downgrade and reinstall stuff, it'll come this week or next week , no worries

Downloading on my Nokia Lumia 520. It took 15 minutes to check for updates on a fast connection.
Checked for 10 mins.. Downloading now

Why do I get so excited about this Posted via Windows Phone Central App
You need wi fi?? Fuck
What's pfd
Preview For Developer
I got the error: "The update was downloaded, but couldn't be opened (8018830f)" any help would be appreciated. (Lumia 925 with Cyan update here).
Same here.
Same here also, just attempting to install again
Since you are on Cyan, you probably need to reenroll it in the PFD.
Same here
Yeah....
Installing on my UK 820 as I type this. Officially excited!
Man this live folder is nice
Now its tempting me to download DP...
+920
Looks like the Live Lock Beta is not working anymore... Anyone else having this issue after the update?
Yeah 20%
Only one update available so far. First one is not 8.1 update 1. HTC 8x in the UK.
Same here, my HTC 8S can't detect the second update. Please let this not be a HTC limitation...
Yeah, same here. 899 is installed on my 8S but the other one won't show up. Would be a shame if this update isn't available on the HTCs.
Omg...download stuck at 0% ... What can I do ? :(
I received it and I'm using it now , I saw this folder thing is awesome tell me again what the new features of it , I don't know what. Are they ?
check here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1HldVtsdGI
It very sexy
Just got my update 1 for the 1520. Live folders rock.
Got the update, although it seemed to have broken Live Lock app.
Looks like it needs to reinstall first.
Almost done. 1020 from Austria.
Well that's awkward. Officially, I wouldn't even have 8.1 and yet here I am, download Update 1 ...
Step 5 of 21 ... =( Dude every update this number get bigger haha
+920
Got only the .899 :( Unbranded 8X
Looks like it isn't out for 8X yet I've not got 8.1.1 either.
DAMN YOU HTC!
I have an unbranded 8x as well & no update for me. Only have the .899 as well :(
Same here, only the .899 (first part?).
Updating my 920 Italy country variant) , here in Bucharest, Romania! :X
Thanks WPC once again delivering the goods.

man did you get it ,mine was downloaded then it got stuck on that boot installation....??????help
Unable to check for updates...error
Downloading now
Did anyone received update in India..??
Looks like this update actually fixed the scroll/tap issue on 1520.
Yup...lumia 520
I read the title, checked for updates and it was partially downloaded already. Timing!
Urgh the UK Cortana voice is awful. It's VERY posh English and probably won't go down well with Scottish/Welsh/N Irish users. And it has no chit-chat, no jokes, etc.
That's disapointing. What phone do you have? There's no 8.1 for the HTC 8X as far as I can tell.
I have a Lumia 930. Presumably they'll add chit-chat but you'd think they'd have it from the beginning as that's what people are going to try out.
Yea.. changing the speech settings just breaks Cortana completely - all you get is the old TellMe interface if you launch with the search key.
Live folder is cool. I have 3 email accounts and 1 calendar grouped in to one folder and Tile keeps on changing with the content from each. until now i felt like a second class citizen with IE. but with this update the pages render as if it is andriod or iphone. Will have to test dropdowns in few websites but few i checked worked fine.
Expecting new type of battery issues, Andorid-type of lags introduced (since GDR2 compared to the RTM, there are lags in WP8, nobody can argue with this) or wifi issues or camera issues. Actually I am no longer brave enough to apply the new BETAs on the first day of release. Let others experiment with it for 2-3 days, and when I see the newly discovered broken features, I will decide what to do. Not even received my favorite poison (cyan), by the way...
Can anyone make video for it what difference we got in GDR1 update and how it is working...
Update in Serbia on lumia 720 :))))
The update said that my L1520 is good to go after the Install. rebooted it now to check it out. Its reinstalling all my apps. Im on Indiana AT&T
The apps folder is sweet! I also love the new store tile.
8018830f, anyone know what this error means? Battery is full, rebooted, cleared temp, currently running Cyan /8.1
and the free space?
3.4GB free, everything is fine for it, same error on last update too the one that was removed
Same, tell me If you can resolve it. 925 CV zith cyan installed :/
I think its Cyan blocking the install, but rolling back to Black might not work if it tries to update to cyan again before update 1
People on reddit got it installed with cyan :/
check here bro http://www.windowsphone.com/en-in/how-to/wp8/basics/solutions-to-update-issues

I'm on Lumia Cyan and wp 8.1 can I download the developer preview so I can get live folders - but will this harm my device
I had to reinstall my windows 8 on my 1020. As its nit known when the pfd will get proper update. So im stuck back here. Does anyone know when cyan update out for 1020. . Its slower than a wet fortnight like. Pretty shit. Sort it out Microsoft .

Got it.

Oooooo very poor Microsoft!!! All I have seen so far is people on HTC 8x not getting gdr 1???? I am in UK. Hope you sort this soon
as I am huge wp fan and cant wait for cortana
that's not Microsoft fault there, HTCs and carriers
I don't want to harm my device so if I download developer preview will my device get harmed
Yes, can't you see? we all have harmed devices!
i think you should read this article http://www.wpcentral.com/should-you-get-preview-windows-phone-81-update-1
Do you have to have an active SIM in your device to get these updates? I bought a phone with the 8.1 preview already installed and have constantly checked for updates but never gotten anything new. Phone is a T-Mobile Nokia Lumia 925.
It's probably because your Microsoft account is not setup as a developer.
Downloading on my 520. Can't wait to creating folder on start screen. \o/

Live Lockscreen beta app won't work after installing the update. Needs a update from the store is shown in a pop-up while booting up your phone. It also replaced my default lock screen background image with one from the default collection. Now let's see what is faster, newer and added. :-) Nokia Lumia 1020 btw.
I got the popup and I selected OK or whatever it asked and Live Lockscreen beta works for me. Maybe you chose the other option as LLB never stopped working for me. AT&T Lumia 1520 WP 8.1U+ Cyan.
What's the DP issue that some of you have mentioned? I'm just hoping this fixes the notification issue on my wife's L720. Currently downloading it now on my L925 in UK....
Pfd is the only way for non Lumia phones to get update....so enjoy guys
Does developer's preview still disable Bluetooth 4.0 LE?
lumia 1020 from ATT getting an update right now.
Just checking and.......i can't download anymore.
Downloading here in Jordan
Almost crapped myself when I started up upgrade process, popped back to WPCentral and saw the headline "Fail Hard". Was somewhat relieved when I read the rest of it. Phew.
I've downloaded it but i see nothing new. No folder, no nothing
applying update 1 on my phone here in chile :) lumia 620 with wp8.1 preview for developers.
Oh have been waiting for it curiously and eagerly. Finally it here
1520 Jordan
Could not find the live folder..wth
How much the update size?
After update a ton of apps were also updated.
Cyan Update where are you?? I think it has lost its way.
Plus my 1320 also!
Maby I do somthing wrong... But my Lumia 920 (in Germany) cant find the update :(
OS version: 8.10.12397.895
Seems like update 1 is not for 8x yet, probably wait another well before we get it.
I hope it will ever be... I guess most developers using 8X are not able to test their cortana API apps, becuase they can't even change the language to US that's why we waited for MS to fix it, and now when they did, they left us without the update. I'm boiling now
I see no visible difference except for speed and stability. Will continue to search for improvements.
Getting error code "80188306" after downloading on a German Lumia 930. :-/
How can I enable live folders?
920 India Downloading right now.
Updating my Lumia 920 in Colombia, carrier Movistar
What is this update exactly? Cyan or an update TO cyan?
Neither. It's the pre-update for GDR1 and the update itself. Nothing to do with Cyan.
Downloading :D
I am downloading it
Installing on my Lumia 820 (unlocked) in Germany on Vodafone.
I think they are doing a great job with updates. Love it.
i can't update. pls!!!!
i have only one doubt ... is lumia cyan and windowsphone 8.1 update 1 has same features ?? can anyone clarify me?
No.. Update 1 is an update to the OS, and Cyan is a firmware update, which is not OS related.
i think you should read this http://www.wpcentral.com/should-you-get-preview-windows-phone-81-update-1
Running perfectly, Sprint Samsung Ativ S Neo, Bitlocker enabled.
Why I have received only update 8.10.12400?
I got notification... But no wifi now. Going to,get in the night.
Can we download update without wi fi
updated.... In From India....1st thing i tried after update is folder option... its jus rocking....
How come I got Cortana even though I have not changed my language setting to UK? From India.
Speech, region, keyboard and language. Region format can stay the same.
Htx 8x, only got the first update, no new features. Can't download the second update cause my phone is already up to date
Same here.
+1 microsoft sucks
Same here.
I'm using wo 8.1. Downloading new update
Downloading it for Lumia 520 Country Variant (India)
Just like I predicted, I get the DP of 8.1 GDR1 before AT&T can finish "testing" 8.1 Cyan on the 920. Frankly the firmware updates (the cyan part) for a two year old phone don't seem worth the trouble. I'll stick with the DP.
Error 80072ee2, any idea guys??
Am installing now! Exciting. Except whenever I update my phone there is always a five minute pause, where it starts to look like I need to do a hard reboot..... but I keep telling myself to just chill out, that everything will be fine. And then out of nowhere, the progress jumps from 2% to 40%. So..... right now, I'm just being nervous.
Ha! Mine's just done the same right now! Sat at about 2% with the cogs turning for ages, was thinking it's screwed..... then as you say, it suddenly jumps upto about 40% :-)
I'm only getting the 8.10.12400.899 in HTC 8X Potugal wwwwhhhhhhyyyyyyyy ...... :(
Welcome to the neglected club of HTC

It won't download for me..... MS do something
Will not even install on my phone. L920 UK CV.
same here I'm afraid... deleted a few bits of junk and trying again. better not be pako screwing it up. thats more important than 8.1 :)
Size is more than 1 gb !!
Its hard to be a geek, you know? You must download all this New firmware, updates, new soft... Or you got hangover.
Just got the notification so I'm pretty happy lol
It's coming,,,indonesia,,,
Hmm, downloaded updates, went to the spinning cogs, then got told there was an error and couldn't update the phone and to try again later. In Australia, lumia 920 on the DP
installing on my lumia icon in south florida....!
Guys, is the update for Windows 8.1 available?
Updated my 1520, how to turn on Cortana for UK or China?
You've got to change region and language to the desired one and activate gps. Also move English UK or Chinese to top position under language settings.
Just installed on my 920. The live folders are great. They work very well
But what's the point of installing this update if we still can't get the firmware update from the carriers? I've been on the 8.1 Dev Preview (Lumia 1020 and 920). AT&T has yet to roll the Cyan update to those devices, so it seems like a waste to update to GDR1 only to have to roll back when AT&T finally gets things going.
You don't need Cyan. Any carrier/manufacturer updates will be added to the dev preview.
You'll have to roll back either way, might as well install it and enjoy the new features until then.
i hear you, it's either wait it out and hope ms fixes everything where we can update right from DP --> Cyan or backup app settings ,downgrade and reinstall, i'm in same boat but lookout this week, updates are being released every week so let's see what the end of this week brings
I might have had my expectations too high. I'm not seeing any difference in the way IE renders websites. Still looks like bad to me.
Not there yet in Romania.
Why does my 920 keep saying "We are currently unable to check for updates (80072ee7)" ? I've already installed Preview for developers.
Having the same problem on my 620. Maybe the servers are busy?
or a bad internet connection.
server busy D:
yeah maybe the server's busy. I'm pretty sure that my internet connection is fine cuz I can even watch HD movies online right now! :D
Cortana saying I'm afraid I'm not available to help in your region with the language you have choose. India
Anyone installed and checked or still commenting as feeling excited etc
Downloaded and installed
Looks like I have Cortana happenin in Australia. If you get a 'sorry do not speak that language yet click on the link below and change the settings to English (United Kingdom) or in Settings > Speech > Speech Language.

Doesn't install if you have Cyan (on my 925 anyway). Boo.
Wrong! I have 925 + Cyan and it updated perfectly .
I agree. AT&T Lumia 1520 WP8.1+Cyan. 8.1U installed just fine.

Update complete!
Ohh yeah!! Time to say hi to indian cortana!!
Is the WiFi connection required for the download part only? I have downloaded it and prepared to install, now gears are rolling and I need to leave the office soon. Is WiFi needed again when it restarts?
I just installed it but don't have any new features.
I think it's two updates? /Currently updating the 1st one
'Checking for updates' for 10 mins and it started downloading. Hope the process goes on smooth. :D
Downloading now in my Lumia 520 in Indonesia...
Nothing yet for my 928
are you logged in to DP?. Im installing it on my 928 now
Any idea when will it be available for Windows 8.1 users?
Windows 8.1 Update was released earlier in the year around the 8th of April 2014: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/features/windows/3510010/windows-81-update-1-release-date-new-features/
Failed install. Il try again later on today
Oh man. UK Cortana is rubbish compared to US. Ask her "how are you" and no response, just a web page. I tried a lot of chit chat and she doesn't respond like the US version.
Won't be the first time I spoke to a woman and got the eye roll. lol.
Make sure your language is set to English/UK.
Live locksecreen is not compatible?
I got the message yet the app still works without any issues. It didn't stop working and I didn't have to do anything.
I cannot do the folders..Please help
Got notification in India, but cant download as away from WiFi, one of few things I don't like in windows phone... In era when phone can download @of 100 mbps...
