Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1 rollout, post if you have it


Recommended Posts

Forget about Update 1, I haven't even got 8.1 yet.

 

This is what I fear is happening to releases these days.  There is no drive to give a final release because everyone just uses the Beta/Pre-release anyway.  Then, if it goes wrong, the company can claim "well, it IS under testing".

 

What phone do you have?

 

The 8.1 Update 1 is only for DP enabled phones with the exception of HTC at the moment.

 

There is a website where you can track the updates per phone, per carrier, per region for Lumia Black/Cyan and 8.1

I uninstalled the lockscreen beta, then turned on and off kids corner and it still fails installing the developer preview on my Lumina 520 (has 2.5gb free space on the phone and 3gb on the micros card) same error 0x80188308 any other ideas?

The Live Lockscreen Beta has nothing to do with some phones unable to update to the 8.1 Update 1. Microsft are aware that some people are having issues though, WPCentral has an article on this here. Someone posted in the comments with the same error code. Looks like you're going to have to wait until they fix it.

Folders are awesome for music organisation, pin playlists from Spotify and get pretty music covers.

Jesus christ I forget its 1080p, now I've noticed that the wallpaper isn't 1080p. Can't even spot that on the phone.

Yeah, Nokia Lumia 920 (UK, unbranded); still "Under Testing".

I didn't want to install the developer preview.  I'm happy to wait but shame they even started the developer preview as all I have been hearing about since May is "download WP 8.1 NOW!" - so many articles, a slow rollout.

Don't know about that problem but the one effecting HTC owners could take "weeks" to be worked out going by the new tweets Joe B posted recently.   I'm guessing, if we're lucky, us 8X owners could go right to a newer build of GDR1 instead of this first preview out now.   Remember, the 8.1 preview saw 3 updates, maybe 4? Till it went final with build 12397/12400, I doubt this is the first build of GDR1 they push out, only question is how long till the next one?

I have experienced random crashes and reboots of the Phone :/ ever since I put 8.1U on my 920. I was surprised to see my phone turned off a couple of times (had enough battery juice so that wasn't a factor) where the phone just turned itself off. I have also seen it just cold reboot when on my desk while I wasn't even using it.

In total I have counted about 7-8 instances of reboots/power offs in last 4-5 days. Anyone else? I have had probably 1-2 crashes on it ever since I bought it :laugh: so this is shocking to me.

not experiencing that on my 925. may be a model specific issue or a unique issue. i haven't heard of anyone else with that issue either so I'd recommend trying a factory restore then applying the update again

Sorry, everything works fine here. Maybe the battery is dying?

The newest Xbox Music update, yesterday, seems to have fixed performance quite a bit.  There's also some 8.1 Update 1 specific stuff in it as I expected.

Anybody have an issue with call+sms filter (found in settings) no longer working?

Doing a soft reset (holding the power button for 8 seconds) has fixed this issue for me.

 

I thought this was basically the same as just turning the phone off and on (when it's frozen), but apparently not.

This isn't related to the update but my 920 used to crash and reboot if I had the SIM card set to 4G.  Forcing it on to 3G fixed the problem for me.

These crashes started right after I updated, I never had the crash/reboot problem with 4G/3G switch.

Error 8018830f or 80188306 fixed.

 

If you were getting either of these errors while trying to update, you should be good to go now.

 

I was getting the first error, and have now been able to update my 625.

Well that's one problem down, I'm still waiting for HTC to fix whatever issues it has with the 8X, I wanted to mess around with the updated IE and folders.

    • Plans. Christ at least editorialise this tripe for what it is or put your own journalistic take on it.
    • If you have a TV in your living room, chances are you can probably just use the Steam Link app and play your huge PC in big picture mode, effectively giving you the Steam Machine experience to see if you'd actually like it. The good news is the Steam Machine can have it's drives upgraded. It has a USB-C 10Gbs port as well, so the 512GB drive could be quickly moved to an external enclosure and repurposed.
    • This machine could very well be a second gaming PC for their living room as a console experience. So we would have to assume their main PC exists as well; With that said, I have 10gb home network with a 2.5gigabit internet connection here so we tend to have more than enough speed to download games. However, we can't make use of the 10gb LAN using Steam's built in transfer tool because it always compresses transfers and that slows the transfer down to well below a standard gigabit port speeds, sometimes as slow as 200-300Mb/s transfers. While that's probably still faster than most internet connections anyway, if they'd fix the LAN transfer issue it'd be upto x5 faster even on a gigabit LAN, than simply dropping a 2.5gbe port on there with hopes of a few people having fast internet connections. There are solutions, work arounds, like using LANCache if you run a NAS... or simply copying the files over manually using a network share.
    • Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI by Paul Hill Local AI models tend to run a lot more slowly than cloud services like Claude and Gemini; however, Samsung has just announced that it has developed its UFS 5.0 solution, which increases data transfer to speeds of 10.8GB/s, enabling faster storage and processing in mobile memory that has the potential to provide more optimal local AI experiences. Commenting on this development, Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics, said: If you’ve tried local AI, you’ll know it can be quite slow, especially if using the larger parameter models. By developing this new solution, Samsung says that storage is evolving from just storing data to a core piece of infrastructure that supports AI computation, too. The Korean company said that UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC and achieves up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s) transfer speeds. Regarding write speeds, Samsung UFS 5.0 can reach 9.5 GB/s. Both the read and write speeds are twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. Aside from being ideal for local AI, Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is more power efficient by 40% compared to UFS 4.1. Samsung achieved this by implementing innovations such as clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. UFS 5.0 is also ultra-compact at just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm; that is 16.7% smaller than UFS 4.1. The company said it will be bringing it to multiple devices in the future, including mobile, wearable, and extended reality.
