As Latinos Post previously noted, the Lumia 822 was in the "Waiting for approval" phase of the Amber rollout.
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 Windows Phone 8 Amber Update is already available for the Lumia 521 and Lumia 810 with carrier T-Mobile. Meanwhile, the Lumia 928 update is ready via Verizon Wireless.
The Lumia 620 with carrier AIO Wireless and the Lumia 920 and Lumia 820 with AT&T are in the "Waiting for approval" phase.
Nokia did not provide a status update for the Lumia 520, Lumia 720, Lumia 925, or Lumia 1020.
According to Nokia, the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update improves the phone's camera, specifically its auto focus, noise filter, and low-light photo taking capabilities, to name a few tweaks.
As Nokia Conversations reported, the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update was not released in one rollout in order to ensure "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!"
