4. FM radio
5. Lumia Color profile
6. Improved Phone storage and SD card storage details.
7. Flip to silence

You can install Nokia Pro Cam (Now Nokia Camera) now with a proxy + region hack.

1. Wheres the radio option available??
2. Flip to silence??

I have tried the other two features.. liked the storage check option(though was using it from way before the update)..

1. Wheres the radio option available?? Music+videos > Radio
2. Flip to silence?? Settings > Audio (You can mute a phone call ring, just by flipping over the phone down)

I am facing this very annoying issue with my 520 which has become very frequent now. In between a call, the proximity sensor stops working and the call gets disconnected or goes to on hold due to your ear or cheek touching one of those buttons. The phone stays this way till you reboot it. Usually u can see a dim red led glowing near ur earpiece when you are making a call, which, my guess is the proximity sensor. I cant see it glowing when the issue happens, but it gets corrected when I reboot it.
Any workarounds??

Another thing i noticed is that the earphones which came with my L520 are exactly the same one as dupplied with the Nokia 108 which is a 2k phone.This is being cheap by Nokia.How can you provide the same earphone that comes with a feature phone ?
Also another thing is when i plug in my earphone the sound does not come right away.I have to fiddle with the pin a bit to get sound so there seems to be some connection issue between the 3.5mm jack and earphone.I tried this with 2 earphones and same result with both.The headphone jack seems to be faulty.Has anyone faced this issue?

The cheaper earphones are bundled in for the cost cutting.. They give average quality sound..
