Hi Guys, asking this qs again as i dint get favourable answers last time.

Is there a way to access Shared folders in PC and stream movie files. I use ES File explorer + MX player to play all content on my android phone/tab. I need to confirm if there is such an app to access and play movies on WP8.

Get moliplayer for Rs. 160. It can stream from DLNA devices

Did you buy the phone from outside India?.. My 520 is bought from the middle east and i think that is the reason i have not received the update yet

Finally Updated.
Since i tried GDR3 already, am not surprised with Black.. :/

Double-tap-to-wake is a serious battery sucker.

Yahooooooooooooooooooo, got the Black update on my Lumia 520 ! So this will be the last update to rejoice for Lumia 520 owners. No MS 8.1 for us.
But who knows ... Windows Phone 8.0 is upgradeable, Microsoft says - Computerworld

congrats

@Gaurav: Congrats. Though I really think that the 525 was a better choice considering the obvious preference itsgoing to get over the 520 in most matters, like updates. And the price difference is barely 2k...

 

[rijinpk1]

finally got the black update

 

[Gaurav Bhattacharjee]

1. Needed a phone 'coz my old one (C2-02) was approaching EOL.

2. Very tight budget. Last month, dad n younger bro got new phones 'coz their old ones went kaput.

3. Bought this phone out of necessity and not luxury.

Now slowly 520 will be phased out. No more updates and no windows 8.1
