yeah its 1.36gb or something,cyan is around 500-700(not sure)
i hard reset on update 1,downgraded to 8.0,updated to cyan and hard reset again and only then did i sign in my microsoft account and restore backup
its much faster ,camera performance seems to have improved,not very grainy anymore,not yet to the level which portico update had before but a big improvement
battery life is certainly better
the update is worth getting and doesnt have any flaws in comparison to previous versions

- - - Updated - - -

Somehow I'm on the latest build, but the cyan thingy is still not in sight. Past couple of days have been filled with app and device updates a lot, often the music and camera apps. I've had the new creative studio for some time so doesn't exactly know how the dev - oem transition takes place. Usually, it should replace the beta with oem, but I'm thinking of possibilities where your dev update becomes newer than the oem...

My wild guess about this is that dev subscribed users also expose themselves to dev app updates (or mine is) from MS and when OEM gets installed it will mess up?

no MS has blocked Dev Preview users from OEM upgrades like cyan because bitlocker was causing issues so till a fix arises,we must downgrade to 8.0 ,update to cyan and then re enable developer preview updates to get DPs
i wouldnt advice updgrading to 8.1 Update 1 dev preview just yet because of bugs ,poor battery life etc, Cyan has fixed a lot of issues though and is the most stable release yet for me

why did you hard reset before downgrading since downgrading will erase all the contents?

i was having trouble downgrading and someone on WPCentral forums suggested hard reset and downgrade
worked for me after that
 
Re: The Windows Phone Thread

I'm on the 8.1 update 1 it seems (8.10.14147.180), and that live tile beta app crashed. The OS itself asked me to uninstall it and now I'm stuck with a 3 second load lock screen. Charging my phone 3 times a day now since on an H network or WiFi all the time.

Time to rollback and rebase :lol:

You're on beta software. Obviously you will face issues. I wanted to know about cyan users. With the final OS, has it improved or decreased the battery life?

Class 10 is always useful, it has high transfer speed so useful when having game data on sd card and play

Ok I too use class 10 for android but I had doubt for windows. If there is not much visible difference I may get higher capacity card.
