Lumia 520 Owners Might Need to Wait Till August to Taste the 8.1 Cyan Update

Windows Phone owners of the Lumia 520 might wait till August for the general public update to arrive. Based on a twitter post by @evleaks, the public OTA (over-the-air) update schedule of Cyan software for most Lumia phones will be on the August time frame. This is according to a leaked Microsoft schedule documentation labeled "Confidential".

Recent rumors suggested that the software will go live by June 24th but only select models like Lumia 925 received the update in countries like Finland and Argentina. WP owners should also note that Windows Phone 8.1 life cycle begins on the 24th of June, according to Microsoft, and it doesn't mean that the updates will be pushed immediately to users on that same day. Software update release is carrier-dependent. Carriers will determine its time frame because they will still have to do some internal testing before it's released to their subscribers.

Possibly, the updates may arrive unexpectedly a little later. Based on the leaked photo, the schedule varies by market and are subject to change. So this gives a little hope to Lumia owners out there who's itching to get the official update. We don't know what's up ahead so let's hope for the best. It'll come as it may.
