How to install Windows Phone 8 Update 3

thank you.
has anybody tried installing it? since it is a preview , i think it will be risky and void warranty.
@those who installed gdr3/gdr2 :
in wifi settings, can you change all the settings like proxy,password,subnetmask,ip etc. or only 2 of them are active like in gdr1. can anybody confirm this please

Formatting is the only option. Format via phone, and put a song and open it in music+videos.
If it still shows duplicate entries, format again.

Yes. Am on GDR3. There are certain news that updating to earlier updates will void warranty, but who cares as long as i get what i need. :)
Have you tried Wifi>Advanced ?

Welcome, bro, 525.. :mrgreen:

Has the exact look as the L520 but 1 GB RAM!!! That cant be below 10K for sure..

But the price should fall between 520-620 right?

The price will be around that of L620 coz L525 is just missing the flash and front camera but has a bigger screen size and double the RAM.. so at the max 1K less than the price of L620..
Any more info on the hardware of L525??

Any particular video player app you using guys?


There's no video players for WP, apart from Yxplayer, i guess.. But that's premium and it claims to play .mkv files too.. Sadly there's no try'n'buy option for this app..

Apart from the increase in RAM and slightly bigger size, nothing is leaked as of now..

But heard its coming with Nokia guru Bluetooth stereo headset..

What if I buy Yxplayer / VLC media player? Is it like yearly subscription or something?

Well then price of L525 = price of L620.. Market of L620 is going to take a major hit..

Not sure of Yxplayer, but this VLC media player is just a streaming player from PC.

This is a companion app for the famous VLC Media PLayer. With this app you can stream video from your VLC Media Player to your Windows Phone.
