The rollout starts first with the Lumia 920 and Lumia 820 in selected countries. As usual, exact delivery timings will vary by region, phone and operator. We checked the update availability for the Philippines and so far most are still waiting for approval.

However, Nokia expects the update to reach your Lumia 520, Lumia 620, Lumia 720, Lumia 820 or Lumia 920 by the end of September.

  1. Is amber update only applicable to handsets that are in postpaid? How about in prepaid like us?


  2. You can manually update the firmware using a Polish ROM..(google)

    Got mine about a week ago… works great so far


  3. may mali po ata sa details “The Nokia Lumia Amber update brings improvements, bug-fixes, and new features like the Nokia Smart Camera, Nokia Pro Camera (Lumia 920, 925)”

    except nokia pro camera…hindi pa po sya kasama sa release…base sa Windowscental at nokiaconversation …magiging available lang ang nokia pro camera after the release of lumia 1020 :D


  4. What if i set US in country settings, do i still get an update? I read that if your date and time settings is wrong, you will never get an aupdate.


  5. I got the update on my 920 this morning… all the improvements included.. the Nokia pro camera app becomes available on the windows app after the update and it’s a great camera app.


  6. And I thought unlocked and unbranded models are getting the update first. Don’t get why it’s taking too long when it doesn’t have to pass through carriers.


  7. It’s already August 19 and no updates yet. :(

    I’m using a SMART Buddy Sim though. Are postpaid plans a priority on this Amber update?


    • Postpaid are usually last in the queue of updates.


    • i don’t think so, i’m a postpaid user and nokia lumia 520 owner.we still have to wait for the update..


  8. have no updates yet. using TM sim. using nokia lumia 520..


    • sir bat kayu nakaTM sim lng?hehe sayang naman po ung 3g capability ng phone nyu


  9. Just updated my Lumia 920. Open line. Bought in Nokia PH store.


  10. any 720 users na nakapag update na ng Phone nila?


    • Me too. Lumia 720 users. No update yet. My fon always restarting 10 to 15 times. Dumb….


    • Kailan BA ung exact date or expectation of that amber update for the Lumia 720 ? Philippines


  11. my nokia lumia 720 haven’t receive an update yet…


  12. September na, wla paring update Sa Nokia 820 ko .. Globe Postpaid .. Ilang buwan pa BA kailangang maghintay??? Baka abutin pa ng Christmas, wala parin ..
