So your 920 has actually been sent out to you?
Damn my outrageous completely unjustifiable colour prejudices as I just couldn't bring myself to get a yellow phone :eek:

No, I am still waiting at the moment. I asked when I ordered the phone and they confirmed I will be emailed a tracking number. :)
 
Cyberport look to have stock of the Black handsets, looking at one of the updates on the other thread.

EDIT.

Opps miss translation. Currently waiting still.

Gizmodo - Review. LOL - 3 stars because its heavy? SRSLY?

Just for lolz

Should You Buy It?

It kills me to say this, because I wanted to own this instead of an iPhone 5, but no. No you shouldn't. It's too big and heavy. It's not fun to own. It's not enjoyable to use. If you want a Windows Phone, check out the very good HTC 8X. But this? No, not this.

It's just too heavy. Inexcusably heavy. Way, way too heavy to recommend to anyone.

It's just as galling every time you take it out of your pocket—stretched within a micron of its life.

I think its more than likey to be EE thats at fault as Nokia are starting to deliver handsets to ze Germans and a number of users have the phones in Canada etc..
 
Just downloaded the UK firmware for the Lumia 920.

Nokia Code: RM821 - Current firmware: 1232.2109.1242.1001

UK Generic Firmware:

059R071 - Red
059R072 - Yellow
059R073 - White
059R074 - Grey
059R075 - Black

Ahhh.... EE has its own firmware.... interesting..
 
RM821_EE_UK

059R1W4 - Black
059R1W7 - Red
059R1W5 - White
059R1W6 - Yellow

Firmware Version: 1232.2110.1244.3011

EDIT:

That's how P4U are selling them sim-free, they are EE branded handset. So the delay is EE testing the firmware.

They also run there own simlock file, which is much smaller than the generic handsets.

Andy, I think I remember you saying you've ordered a yellow one, is there any sign of when they are getting that colour in as I want it too. Can I ask any cyberport buyers how much the shipping cost is please and finally apart from needing a euro adaptor will anything else be different e.g will it have a 2 year warranty?
Click to expand...

Yes, that's correct I have a yellow one on order. I should be getting a update tomorrow, as to when they are expecting them in, it should be any day now. The shipping was 16 / 17 Euros off the top of my head and yes you will just need to change the plug but that's not a problem as I have the once from my Lumia 800.

It's covered by a 2 year international warranty, which is valid throughout the EU

So since there is a variant for each of the firmware revisions we can at least assume that EE were not happy with the software and thus the delay?
Click to expand...

Yes. There are 2 different versions of the firmware at present.

These are:

1232.2109.1242.1010

Hi Andy, I'm not very familiar with the world of firmware and sim locking etc, but does this mean you think it's possible to relatively easily unlock a EE lumia 920 from say P4U to work with any network? Thanks :)
Click to expand...

It depends on how the phone is locked, if its locked by software I simple re-flash of the phone will remove the lock. However, if the phone is locked at a hardware level a code is normally needed to remove the network sim lock, which is often the case with Orange handsets in the past. I'd need someone to test this for me. :)

De-Branding the phone, in itself is pretty straight forward and is relevantly low risk. However, as which anything there is still I risk you can bork the handset but that said, Nokia Care tools are pretty easy and straight forward to use. As the normal process is download the firmware from Nokia DPM / Navifirm+ and then flash to the handset but it you are changing the software on the phone you need to rename a few files. It will be the same procedure as the one I wrote for the Lumia 800.
