Last week, we reported how Samsung was slowly trickling out the Windows Phone 8.1 Update (GDR1) for ATIV S users. However, the rollout at the time was limited to just phones with Austrian region branding. Users in our forums detailed how you could do it yourself, however the method was complicated by the sheer amount of ATIV S versions out on the market.
The update bumps the OS to version 14157 with the 2424.14.9.3 firmware, bringing ATIV S users all the way up to Windows Phone 8.1 Update. Those on Preview for Developers are also likely to get this update too without the need to 'rollback' to an earlier 8.0 Update 2.
Interestingly, Samsung appears to have taken so long so as to rollout Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 Update all into a single over-the-air OS refresh. As a result, ATIV S users had to wait longer than those on Lumia phones did, but at the end of the day, they get Update 1 seemingly earlier with corresponding firmware.
Not sure. The ATIV S came out in 2012 and now it jumps from GDR3 up to Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1, beating out older Lumia devices.
On windows phone 8.1 for my 925 , Xbox music seems a lot slower and laggish. I also miss the old way to turn off notification sounds and ringtone sound
Because that's what it's called, the Windows Phone 8.1 Update or WP8.1.1 ;-)
I feel like Windows phone 8.1 updates took long to reach so many phones. This is frankly very annoying. I released all updates to all phones universally...
