The only Lumia smartphone with the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update currently rolling out is the Lumia 920 via mobile carrier Rogers.
Meanwhile, the Lumia 520 has been confirmed to receive the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update, but it is "Waiting for approval" from carriers Chatr Wireless, Koodo, PC Mobile, Rogers, and Telus.
The latest version update to be available for the Lumia 520 was labeled as "1030.6408.1309.0000."
According to Nokia, the term "waiting for approval" is defined as undergoing a final test with either the specific country or mobile carrier before approval.
The Lumia 620 is the final Lumia device that is eligible to obtain the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update in Canada. The Lumia 620 is also in the waiting approval phase with carriers Koodo and Telus.
According to Nokia Conversations, the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update was not released in one massive rollout due to "quality standards."
"To ensure the software update meets our quality standards, we're running multiple tests with various country variants and operators," wrote Nokia Conversations' Ian Delaney. "We make the updates available to you as soon as we complete testing. With Lumia Amber we expect to have the update arriving in all Lumia Windows Phone 8 phones by the end of September. Be patient - it's coming!"
Nokia noted, "To make sure you don't miss out on the notification, check on your phone that under Settings > Phone Update > 'Tell me when updates are available for my phone' is enabled."
