As Latinos Post reported in early October, the Lumia 920 and Lumia 820's Windows Phone 8 Amber Updates were previously labeled as "Waiting for approval." Nokia defined "waiting for approval" as undergoing final test with either the specific country or mobile carrier before approval.
The Amber Update rollout for the AT&T Lumia smartphones join T-Mobile's Lumia 521 and Lumia 810 and Verizon Wireless' Lumia 928.
The Lumia 620, from mobile carrier Aio Wireless, is the sole Nokia Lumia device waiting for approval.
As Latinos Post reported, Nokia did not rollout the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update in one huge distribution to ensure "quality standards."
According to Nokia, "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."
"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!"
The Windows Phone 8 Amber Update includes improvements to the Nokia Lumia's camera, particularly the auto focus, noise filter, and low-light photo-taking capabilities, to name a few tweaks.
