A Nokia Lumia Windows Phone 8 software update providing performance enhancements for the Nokia Lumia 820 and Nokia Lumia 920 has started rolling out over the air. Delivery will continue in a phased manner over the coming weeks and is expected to be complete by the end of February. You will receive a notification on your phone when the update is available for you to download.

Edit: projected end date updates, thanks to Kerttu for the revised information.

Thank you for the info.

Really hope i'm near the start of the roll-out, mid-March is a long way off!

Great news!

These devices are really gagging for the update. Let's hope it solves many of the stability issues surrounding WP8.

Looking forward to it, provided EE pull their finger out and actually approve it...

Thanks for sharing this info.

Is it possible to know if Nokia Lumia 920.3 dev phone is also included on this upgrade?? When it will be available?

[fakhrex]

Michaels,

Please Confirm .... Is this a global release of PR1.1 Portico update for Lumia 920 & Lumia 820 users?

[adrianhughes]

Thanks for the update Wayne, not too long now

[taiger]

So have anyone actually started to recieve this??

[SpeedFire_]

This is good, but why does it take so long (1.5 months), when Apple, for example, provides updates instantly for everyone?

Looks like it's been released for Vodafone handsets in a few countries today.

It's very wrong that carrier branded models are getting it before those with carrier-free models. Nokia has really dropped the ball on this one, a bad sign of things to come.

Just got the update on my Lumis 820 on EE in the UK. Nothing special that I've noticed, could have done with a profile settings and ability to customize your own alert tones !! Hey ho. Maybe another one some day !!

Hi,
I am a lumia 820 user and am excited to have the new update as soon as possible.

I recently just bought a 920 a few days ago. I checked for updates but said the phone was up to date. How do I know if i have the newest pr 1.1 update or not? 

[girish82]

My Wife`s 820 (on O2) got an update yesterday.

My UNBRANDED 920 (with o2 sim) is still waiting for the update.

Very disspointed that branded phones get updates before unbranded/sim free phones.

Can you explain this?

[grschinon]

It's a major bone of contention right now. Nokia seem to be working very closely with network operators, which is fair enough because it used to be that operator-branded devices would sometimes get updates months after unbranded ones, if they got them at all. But doing this at the expense of unbranded devices that people have paid good money for in order to avoid the wait is just wrong.

There must be kind of wheeling and dealing going on. Maybe the network operators said "OK, we'll sell your devices but we want you to hold off on updates for vanilla devices until we've approved ours".

The update is, however, worth waiting for (I have a branded Lumia 920 from EE here in the UK). The phone seems much more stable than before and photos are much sharper than before. It is worth the wait.
