[BataBole]

Doesn't download the TP help?

We can't download the technical preview cuz HTC 8X is not on list of supported phones!

Always will be ways to do like this one:
HOWTO: Install Windows 10 for Phones on Non-… | Windows 10 Development and Hacking | XDA Forums

Anyone tried this one? I would like to install it on my device but I'm not sure if it will work good enough or even work? I may not be able to restore it to 8.1..

The 8x was never meant to get WP10 otherwise it would have been the 10x...

Yeah, it would be fun that HTC release two new Windows 10 phones, 10S and 10X.

I wouldn't mind a M9 with WP10.. I have always liked the M's

Anyone tried installing W10 on the 8X by the unofficial method ?

Do NOT put Win10 Insider Preview on your only phone! Just wait until it's either released or MS says it's supported. What's the big rush? If you brick your phone it's going to be your fault. Nobody to blame but yourself.

Just sit tight and wait for the official word. Some stupid HTC Chat support rep doesn't know diddly-squat about what's going on.

If your HTC 8x is your secondary phone that you don't care about, then fine.. go ahead and hack the crap out of it but from what I've read it's not. Just wait.

Interesting. My HTC 8X has just down loaded Windows 10 Insider build 10536.1004 and is installing.

My HTC 8x is right now installing windows 10!!!

Dang! I sure hope this works!

 

[Joao Silva2]

Yeah, me too!!! It's been a looooooong wait for me!

 

[Peter McNeill1]

Downloaded, installed, and now the tiles/icons/text is so small I can't read anything. Haven't found a way to make it normal yet. sigh

 

[Joao Silva2]

Oh boy... Really?? Have you tried to look for updates again?

 

[paulove]

I tweeted at Gabe Aul today asking about Win 10 for the 8X, maybe that's why it's out?

I like the title of this topic!

Maybe a new thread should be started?

I had turning gears with the progress bar at what looked like 100% for quite a long time and now it is rebooting. Not working, rebooting over and over.
