How to upgrade your Lumia to WP8 GDR3

by Volker Weber

Microsoft announced GDR3 today and offers a preview version for developers. If you are adventurous, you can become a developer and upgrade your phone. Three easy steps:

  1. Sign up as a developer. It's free.
  2. Install this app and run it.
  3. Search for updates.

That took 18 minutes on my Lumia 1020 and was non-destructive. Caveat emptor: there is no way back.

Yeah, done, nice! Hopefully Nokia attaches itself to that with firmware updates. Or the devices section in MS, next year.

Cool. Leider kein VPN, keine separate Lautstärkenregelung für Medien und Klingeltöne, kein Benachrichtigungszentrum.

I explain difficult concepts in simple ways. For free, and for money. Clue procurement and bullshit detection.
