Last night Microsoft started rolling out the Lumia Cyan update to Developer Preview devices.  The firmware update has been on hold for more than a month after it caused widespread issues with handsets which were using Bitlocker encryption, resulting in handsets which were unusable.

It seems all the delay was however for naught, as users are still reporting running into problems after the update.

This is of course unfortunate, but given that devices running Bitlocker, which needs to be enabled via corporate MDM servers, is quite rare, I think I would prefer having the update being available to everyone else, and the few Bitlocker users using Nokia Recovery Tool.
