Microsoft’s execs Joe Belfiore and Marcus Ash have been quite active on Twitter since the time Windows Phone 8.1 update1 aka GDR1 has started rolling out. On some users facing issues in updating to GDR1, Joe Belfiore tells that Microsoft is working on it and will inform about the fix. You can however try your hand on our guide to common error code and their resolutions.
PS – if you hit the update error, it’s unlikely that retrying will work. We think it’s related to low system storage. Give us some time..

Marcus Ash has confirmed about Cortana in UK running into issues and the issues getting fixed finally with service roll-out. He also says that Microsoft is looking into Windows Phone 8.1 update 1 for HTC devices.
Hey folks, client bits were staged before our service rollout completed. Which means you might see weird behavior like no interests in UK.

Service rollout finished along with validation pass. Things should be working now. Send tweet if you still see issues or have questions.
