Lumia 900 owners in the USA and Canada have begun receiving the latest roll out for their Lumia 900s; Windows Phone Tango. This isn’t the WP 7.8 upgrade that we’re all waiting for, but it does bring some nice improvements to the device (it appears that there are two different Changelogs, one for Canada and the other for the USA):

USA:

  • Flip-to-silence feature
  • Camera performance enhancements
  • Battery performance enhancements
  • Startup sequence performance enhancements

Canada:

  • Flip-to-silence feature
  • Support for Contacts Share app, to send and receive business cards as text messages
  • Proximity sensor performance enhancements
  • Removes purple hue which affected some phones in low-light conditions
  • Startup sequence performance enhancements
  • Camera performance enhancements
Here’s a nice step by step to upgrading your Windows Phone to Tango:

    I plugged my phone in after work today and there it was, I’m on AT&T FWIW. I let the updates start and went out for a bit to work on my car. I’m back in now but haven’t messed with it too much yet. I’m currently using my new 808 but I’ll play around with the 900 tonight!

    haha, I see you are learning from Jay on putting funny images at the beginning of each blogpost.

    Jay would have probably edited the image, deleting the man and replacing it with a dancing Lumia phone. Ultimate pun ever.

    Hey, Ali’s alright by me.

    Uh, are the Canadian versions just now getting what the american versions had, or are we yankees gettin’ stiffed?

    • Aliqudsi says:

      I think the fixes included in the Canadian version were already released for the US a couple months ago. Although I’m surprised that the contact share is listed in e change of considering how it’s a separate app for the rest of the world.

    They had to adjust the proximity sensor for Canada due to the floppy heads.

    • JGrove says:

      Lol, I see what you did there. They have given us a lot of great comics, Molsen, Trailerpark Boys and some of the best damn maple syrup ever. They can flop if they want to.
