Have an unlocked Nokia Lumia 1520 which stubbornly tells me that my phone is fully up to date but it still has Lumia Cyan.
Sim in it comes from Vodaphone
Does anyone know
a) When it is likely to update
b) Is it possible to side load the update
Vodaphone staff are about as much help as a chocolate fireguard - usually saying
I don't know
or
They don't tell us
or
Lots of people ask us that
That is both store staff and the muppets on the phone. One of them said check the web - brilliant genius I would not have been asking except I checked the web and that gave me the impression it was coming out by the end of January and it is now February.
Maybe they are having a Google style rollout rather than Apple?
So it's not the 'Denim' update.
it was a denim update for the lumia 830.
The 830 shipped with an old version of denim, as did the 735 and 730.
Took an age to install as well at around an hour.
Still waiting for my phone to tell me the OTA update is available - not sure if it is because of Vodaphone or that it is an unlocked 1520 but would really like to know how I can avoid waiting for Vodaphone.
At the rate things are going I will have Windows 10 on my desktop before Denim arrives on the Mobile (and yes I am tempted to upgrade the phone when it is avaiable for the 1520)
What carrier is listed under settings > system > about ?
If you want to flash manually have a look here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2515453
I used this thread to flash the Country Variant firmware to my EE 830. It was easy but took about 90 minutes.
Where does it say it is Denim? All my update shows is it is windows 8.1 the name denim does not figure anywhere.

Cortana pinned to the start screen drains battery. I only really use it for night hours. Rest is all gimmicky like remind me to buy roses nonsense.
I'm guessing you are experiencing battery drain because you are still in the play stage and testing what you can and can't do.
The new camera is a massive improvement, with some nice features, if you've installed that.
Unless I am being dense cannot see any carrier:
Name:
Model:
Software:
OS Version
firmware Revision Number
Hardware Revision number
Radio software version
CHIP SOC
Screen Resolution
MAC Address
MEID
IMEI
SIM ID
IMS (Not Registered)
It should be between the Model and Software, at least it is there on my 530 and 635.
About on my 635:

The only other way of confirming which variant it is would be by product code (05xxxxx) but I am not sure where it would be on a 1520 as it is sealed.
Thanks for that but there is nothing on my 1520
My Nokia Lumia 630 SIM Free Country Variant (T-Mobile) got the Denim Update tonight.

Loads more now listed.
Seems youre stuffed if youre on 3UK, not a single one has been updated.
Cortana hasn't been out for 2 years. You don't have to use it if you don't want to, so not really a valid moan.
I have no idea what the second part of your post is complaining about.
Best suggestion for you is that you go buy an android or an iPhone as you obviously have low expectations...:cool:;-)
I can only guess that he means the quick toggles (or what ever they are called) for wifi, BT etc. I can't imagine why anyone would have a problem with the MS implementation. If you want to see a notification area really "gobbled up" have a look at my LG G2 - it's a work of genius.
