Switched to my 920 with Windows 10 as my daily phone.

I have had the preview build installed on my 920 while I still used my 925 as my daily phone. However, I got tired of just playing with Windows 10 and decided if I'm really going to experience it, I should just use it for my daily phone so I can give Microsoft proper feedback. Since it's just a matter of pulling out my sim card and installing it in the 920, no big deal, My only big issue is I lost Color Profile on my 920. Not a huge deal but going fro the Amoled 925 to the LCD 920, I sure wish I could adjust it. Thought about doing the posted workaround of placing the Nokia settings on the start screen and then installing Windows 10 but I really don't feel like rolling it back, and then reinstalling.

Just for your information.
On my 920 on W10 I can adjust the color profile under Settings > Extra's > display

Anyhow I think it's a good plan you have.

I know how you feel about that switch and color profile, I've had the 920, the 925 and currently am using a 928 and those deep blacks and super saturated juicy sweet colors are easy to miss

I not using my 920 as my daily driver. It just can't launch my People app. (however its sync with my Hotmail/Skype/FB accounts). I'm using it on wifi only, without a SIM card. Looks like another hard reset is looming...

Mine did too. I did a hard reset, loaded an old backup but stopped the endless list of apps from loading. Reloaded 10 and installed certain apps 1 by 1. Worked for me

Ok.. I did another hard reset. Reinstalling apps. The people hub again failed to launch. It was Ok in the beginning. Managed to pin several contacts to the start screen. Now it just crashes.

Yeah the screen on the 925 is pretty much untouchable to me. My wife's galaxy and daughter's iPhones don't come close IMHO.

Mine still isn't "usable" as my desktop icons don't respond to touch anymore. Any app I need to run, has to run from the app list. I want to fix it.

Ran 10 on my 930 the first day and rolled back to 8.1 the same day. 2 days ago I got the itch again and reloaded it. Couldn't get hey Cortana to work and my start screen was almost unusable. I wont list all of the problems since there were many. Back to 8.1 again. Strangely enough, W10TP on my cheap 635 runs very well. What is it with the higher end phones? I will say that by playing with 10 on my 635, I can appreciate where 10 is going and I'm looking forward to using a more refined build on my 930.
