Nokia has confirmed the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update for the Lumia 520, Lumia 620, Lumia 720, Lumia 820, and Lumia 920 devices.

Movistar and Telcel's Amber Update are also available for the Lumia 820 and Lumia 920.
Iuscacell is planned for rollout the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update for the Lumia 920, but as seen with the Lumia 920, it is in the "Waiting for approval" phase.
As Latinos Post reported, Nokia did not rollout the Windows Phone 8 Amber Update in one huge distribution to ensure "quality standards."
"To ensure the software update meets our quality standards, we're running multiple tests with various country variants and operators," wrote Nokia Conversations' Ian Delaney. "We make the updates available to you as soon as we complete testing. With Lumia Amber we expect to have the update arriving in all Lumia Windows Phone 8 phones by the end of September. Be patient - it's coming!"
According to Nokia, "To make sure you don't miss out on the notification, check on your phone that under Settings > Phone Update > 'Tell me when updates are available for my phone' is enabled."
