Lumia Amber Update Rolling Out – Coming Soon for Pakistan

Nokia Lumia “Amber” software update has started rolling out a couple of days ago which was being awaited for quite a long time as it brings a lot of features and apps to Nokia Lumia smartphones running Windows Phone OS 8. While spreading worldwide day by day, according to Nokia Support website the software update will reach soon to the Nokia Lumia smartphone users in Pakistan.

The status information of the roll-out process of Nokia Lumia Amber update can be checked at Nokia Support website for your respective region. As we are concerned for Pakistan, following is the status telling that the Lumia Amber update version 1232.5957.1308.0001 will be coming soon for Lumia 820 and Lumia 920 devices in Pakistan.

Prominent new apps and features in Nokia Lumia Amber update include Improved Image Processing, Nokia Smart Camera app, Nokia Pro Camera app, Nokia Video Trimmer app, Nokia Video Upload app supporting YouTube upload feature. The apps will be available from Store after updating to Lumia Amber. Image and Video apps with camera capabilities are device dependent e.g. On the Nokia Lumia 720, 620 and 520, the burst mode used in Nokia Smart Camera for some effects takes seven pictures rather than ten, and these are a lower resolution than on devices with more RAM.

Another feature taken from the Nokia’s own root, Symbian and then MeeGo powered Nokia N9, the big clock along with other useful information and indicators while the phone is inactive or sleeping. The Nokia Glance Screen is the new feature coming to Lumia devices with the Lumia Amber update which shows a big clear clock on the screen

The screen shows a big, clear clock. When your phone is charging (or if the battery is critically low), it shows a battery indicator. And it shows a vibrate icon if you’ve switched your phone to silent. If you’ve turned vibrate off as well, it will show a plain ‘silent’ icon (as in the picture above).

Nokia Glance screen is controlled from the ‘display and touch’ section of the Settings menu.
