Lumia 625 GDR3 Not getting Lumia Black

Hi,
I updated my Lumia 625 3 weeks ago to GDR3 and it was supposed to update to Lumia black as well. However i didnt get the black update. the extras+info still shows amber however i received all the GDR3 options like screen orientation lock and closing the apps with the x button in multitasking window. I attached for you the screenshot of the "About Phone" showing that i have the latest OS version which i compared with my other Lumia 925 and it is the same.
I've been trying to update in "Phone Update" for the past weeks and it is always showing that my phone is up to date. iI also checked nokia support page for my country Lebanon and it is showing as available. we do not have any carrier branded phone here so it is a SIM free phone.
Please help!!!
Thanks,
Ralf

Hi Ralfyyy,
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
You are right. You're Firmware Revision Number suggests that you have the latest software version for your handset. Is your System apps up-to-date? If you haven't, you can scan the codes here: http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Pool-of-Knowledge/Nokia-Windows-Phone-8-App-Updates/td-p/1640082

Nokia Lumia Black Update for Lumia 520 620 720 in ...

When Lumia black update will be available for 520 620 & 720. Still on waiting for approval.

Lumia 620 is not getting the black update and I don't know why they even bother sending out emails to 620 owners saying "Get your Black update today"... So annoying

Will the 810 get the "Black" update?

The title pretty much sums up my question. Will the 810 get the "Black" update? I saw a chart on Nokia's website and this was the only model that was showing as "not available".

The 810 is not getting the Black update. So...
Until couple days ago I was an owner of an 810 (loved it) and was abandoned by T-Mobile. If dropping support for a phone less than a year after selling it is "uncarrier", then give me a real carrier any day.
So, in protest, I did some research and decided to switch to AT&T. Your options for Win phone on T-Mo are the 521 and 925. AT&T also has the 925, so I compared the two carriers.
A 925 on T-Mo will cost you $480. Then the plan is $50 + $10/mo for 2.5GB data. JUMP adds another $10 for a total of $70/mo with the option for a new phone in 6 months.
A Nokia Lumia 925 on AT&T cost me $330 at my local AT&T corporate store. I got a $200 switchers credit, plus they gave me $100 to trade in my beloved 810. So the 925 cost me $30 in the end. AT&Ts Next12 plan is $45/mo -$15 credit = $30, plus $40/mo for 1GB data (enough for me). Again, that's $30 for a brand new 925, then $70/mo with the option for a new phone in 12 Months. Not exactly apples to apples, but close enough. And AT&T has better network coverage.
Bye T-Mobile and your poor customer loyalty.

Getting Darker Blacks from My HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer

Hi. I own an HP LaserJet Pro CP1525nw Color Printer and am on a Windows XP system. For regular printing, it works great. However, for some graphic work I am doing, I can not get the blacks to print out dark enough. I can not find any settings on the print properties panel that would allow me to set a darker black coverage. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hey,
I see you are having an issue with Air Print on your CP1525nw Color Laserjet Pro. Have you tried a full network power cycle?
Unplug the router and printer while on
Power down the iOS device completely. Check out the following link for how: http://ipod.about.com/od/iphonehowtos/qt/turn_off_iphone.htm
Wait 30 seconds
Power the router up and wait for it to completely initialize before proceeding
Power the printer up and wait for it to completely initialize before proceeding
Power the iOS device back up
It sounds like the network most likely lost communication with the bonjour service of the printer.
If you need to update the firmware of the CP1525nw please click the following link: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=lj-86473-9&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
Let me know how it goes.

8500A ink leaving cartridge, but not getting as far as paper....

Hi there.
I'm having a real issue trying to get any black ink to reach the paper on my 8500A. It was working fine until my ink ran out about 3 weeks ago, now I need to do some printing I've gone and bought myself a new official cartridge.
After installing (which I've done a million times in the past) and attempting a print the ink seems to be leaving the cartridge, but not getting any further than the springy mechanism it's attached to. I've tried both cleaning the printheads via the printer, and the springy plastic bit with a **bleep** cloth - which gets covered in black ink.
I've attached two photos...

Hello @dwfmagik,
Welcome back to the HP Support Forums! I see you have recently replaced the black ink cartridge on your HP Officejet 8500A, but you are still not getting any black ink on the paper. I see you have tried to clean the printheads using the cleaning utility as well as inside the machine with no success.
I would like you to continue troubleshooting here: Printer Prints a Blank Page or Does Not Print Black or Color Ink for the HP Officejet Pro 8500A
If after the troubleshooting you are still not able to print in black ink, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

Not getting lumia black update

I have a Lumia 625 but I have still not got the Lumia black update.

Did you try the Nokia Software Recovery Tool already? There, what is your 7-letter code (product code)? That code determines your firmware variant which determines your current version. Then we can check together if you have the latest version.

Check that all your system apps are up to date as well. There are several free apps in the store for that, Lumia System updater is one for example.

The Glance Screen is not updated in Lumia Black Up...

Hello Nokia (and the rest of the forum)
I just downloaded the new Lumia Black, which I was looking very much forward to because of the new Glance Screen. I've lokkede thoroughly through my Lumia 920 settings, but the Glance Screen doesn't seem to have ben updated, it looks exactly as it did before. Furthermore, I can't find the settings for messages about missed calls, Texas and unread e-mails either.
How can this be? I hope you can helt me, I would so like to ude the new update.
Best regards

@munchmimi Please check if your system apps are updated, you may use Lumia System Updater or SysApp Pusher to check for updates. Once you update the system apps, you will see the new glance screen.
Glance screen notification settings share the Lock screen settings, so you need to set up notification settings throught Settings->Lock Screen
I am having the same issue.
I was on the developer's preview for GDR3 (since November 2013) and then received Black update last week.
Here are the version details as seen on my Lumia 920:
OS Version: 8.0.10521.155
Firmware Version: 3051.40000.1349.0025
Hardware Version: 6.5.0.2
Extras+info says I have Lumia Black.
However, the lock screen settings doesnt have any Glance settings and I am not able to update glance as well.
I've tried using the "SysApp Pusher" trick, but nothing has worked so far. I am not able to download StoryTeller as well. And in case this helps, I am with EE UK

Lumia 625 does not detect MicroSD cards, please he...

My Lumia 625 does not detect MicroSD cards when inserted.
I have tried powering off/on.
I have tried formating them in my PC.
I have updated my phone to 3050.0000.1334.0007
I have tried a Kingston 64GB SDXC Class10
I have tried a Sandisk Ultra 64GB SDXC Class10
I have tried formatting the cards in various ways including exFAT / FAT32 / FAT64 etc.
The only progress i made was when i tried formatting in NTSC and after inserting the card i recieved a message saying "incomattable formatted card inserted, do you whish to format the card in a compattable format?" After choosing yes, the phone formatted the card and then the card was undetected...
This was confirmed by checking the card in my PC, which confirmed that the card had been formatted using exFAT, which i believe is the correct format for the phone/card.
Clearly the phone is somehow detecting and writing to the card and the card is functioning properly, except that the phone does not detect that the card exists as expanded memory and will not allow me to use it.
Any help with this would be really appreciated!
Becoming quite frustrated now...

Hi Pepperami33,
Have you tried to perform a reset? It will delete all your data so backup is required. See this link: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/how-to/wp8/basics/back-up-my-stuff for the steps on how to backup your files. After creating a backup, go to Settings > About > Reset your phone.
If the reset will not work, it is best to have your phone checked by our care point. Visit www.nokia.com/support for more info about the repair process.

Can NOT get the latest Lumia Cyan for Lumia 1020

I'm in New Zealand and the latest software release for Nokia Lumia 1020 is Lumia Cyan (3051.50009.1424.00xx)
When I goto about your mumia
this shows software: Lumia Black Release
and the firmware revision number is 3051.40000.1345.1004.
But when I check for updates, the update status is your phone is update to date.
is there anyone has updated his/her lumia 1020 to Lumia Cyan?
thank you.

it can take a couple of weeks for an update to roll out to all the handsets of a particular carrier, or country variant, and this is might have what happened here. i would say, if u haven't got anything within two weeks, contact your nearest Nokia Care centre.

Lumia black update status

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Update availability may vary depending on your phone model, region, and network service provider or carrier. Software updates are continuously made available based on operator approvals.
Your phone automatically checks for updates on a weekly basis. If you have a Wi-Fi connection, your phone downloads the update once available. To change the settings, or check for updates, just tap Settings > Phone Update.
For major software update releases, such as Lumia Black, you can also check for the availability of software updates in your region HERE
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.
Now using the Lumia 1520

Lumia Black begins rolling out

Greetings Lumia fans,
From today, Nokia Lumia WP8 owners around the world will start to receive the new Lumia Black software update on their smartphones.
The Lumia Black update combines a host of new features, improvements in imaging, new apps and app updates from Microsoft and Nokia to make your Lumia smartphone experience even better. So what can you look forward to, once Lumia Black is installed?
App Folder. This brand new feature makes your Lumia experience even more fluid by giving you an option to further personalize and organize your Start screen. With App folders you can group similar apps and settings into one folder, a tile, on your Start screen.
Nokia Glance screen 2.0. Helps you keep track of information in real time, making all your most important notifications including: phone, messages, email, outlook, calendar, or any apps that use notifications such as Twitter, Facebook, Whatsapp, or games; always visible at a glance on your screen. It saves you time and energy.
Bluetooth LE. Will now be enabled across the full Windows Phone 8 Lumia range for compatible gadgets like the Adidas MiCoach accessories.
Nokia Refocus. The amazing Nokia Refocus comes to all Windows Phone 8 Lumia smartphones with 1GB of RAM and upwards. This app has to be seen to be believed, so what better excuse for showing another example:
Nokia Beamer. Sharing what’s on your phone is easier than ever with Nokia Beamer. No longer restricted to just photos, you can now beam documents, presentations, anything you like, to any HTML5-enabled screen by simply scanning a QR code on the screen. It’s coming to all of the phones with 1GB RAM upwards.
Nokia Storyteller. This app debuted on the new Nokia Lumia 1520 and Lumia 2520 late last year. Now the experience comes to other Lumia smartphones. The app arranges your photos for you, by date and by place, making it easier to tell the stories behind your pictures, and give extra context through the close integration of interactive maps.
Nokia Camera. Combines Nokia Pro Camera and Smart Camera to simplify the photo-taking experience, and ensure you get the perfect shot every time. The app has been available for Lumia PureView smartphones since last year, but it’s now coming to the rest of the WP8 Lumia range.
The latest Nokia Camera update also brings raw DNG support for Lumia 1020 owners – something that’s already available for Lumia 1520. The DNG format gives you access to pure and untouched visual information, allowing you to do more and be more creative with your images. If you are an enthusiast or professional photographer, now you can use your professional workflow with your smartphone images.
Latest generation of imaging algorithms. The Lumia Black update further improves the image quality, especially in Lumia 1020. Among others, the improvements include a new oversampling algorithm, making your images more natural looking with reduced noise, while ensuring your photos remain wonderfully sharp.
The Lumia Black update also brings a series of enhancements from Microsoft to Nokia Lumia smartphones. These include safe driving mode – which cuts out unnecessary distractions when you’re on the road; customised ringtones for each contact. You can now also close apps within the in multitasking view and lock the screen rotation if you wish.
“Nokia Lumia Black updates the imaging experiences on your Lumia and makes using the Windows Phone even more fluid. New App Folders and the ability to close apps in multitasker are my personal favourites. I also encourage everyone to try out the Nokia Refocus app that introduces a whole new dimension to photography,” says Samuli Hänninen, vice president of software program management for Nokia’s Smart Devices business.
How do I update?
The Lumia Black update has begun rolling out now for Lumia 1020 and Lumia 925 smartphones, with other models in the range following in the coming weeks. For more information go to http://www.nokia.com/global/support/software-update/wp8-software-update/.
Your Nokia Lumia smartphone automatically checks for updates every week, and will notify you when it finds one. Otherwise, you can go to Settings -> Phone update and check for yourself. If Lumia Black is ready for your phone, you’ll be able to download and install it straight from that screen.

Why is the Black update for Lumia 810 listed as not available?
Does that mean Nokia has abandoned my device and I shouldn't hold my breath to see any fixes for it in the future?
Is there a way to get this update through other channels (such as the "developer preview" that Microsoft did before GDR3 started rolling out) or is Nokia just killing support for yet another phone a year after the release?

I also have this question...I was really bummed when i saw this. Hoping this is not the case.
