After installing the Windows 10 mobile insider preview, it's recommended that you do a hard reset after installation. Do this by going into settings/system/about then scroll down to the bottom and click Reset Your Phone.

If you can't open the settings app, use Cortana to open it. Long press (tap and hold) the magnifier glass button to launch Cortana in "listening mode" and say "open settings".

i did everything....
first i rolled back to windows 8.1 using windows recovery tool..(kind of the hardest reset) .... and then i installed 8.1s latest update....the only change that i made was to install windows insider......then i upgraded to 10166....did a hard reset...upgraded to 10512...again did a hard reset....even after going through all this trouble....even the music apps would close by itself within a min of opening it....
is it because my phones 512 mb ram is insufficient for running win 10???

Shouldn't be. Are you checking the store after the hard reset to get all the updates for these apps?

I'm running 10512 on my 520. The apps do quit sometimes, like they did on 8.1. Also apps take longer time to boot up. However they are still usable, with bugs occasionally.

I can't get 10512 to upgrade to the new insider version. It downloads it and gives and error that it can't install it. Even after a hard reset.

Currently running 10.0.10536.1004

Much better experience although I have one app (Calendar for Business) that will not hold settings. Small price to pay though.

I'm using 10536.1004... Its fine overall...after unlocking it takes 2 3 secs to display everything... Thats not a problem for me.but the only problem I'm having is that I cant update any apps from store, error occuring (error 0x80070002). Other than this issue , this build is much stable so far.

Currently running Build 10.0.10149 on my 520 the only apps that lag's is the camera and photo apps.. The camera takes for ever to startup and the photo app wouldn't show all pics. Though two builds crashed my phone b4 I got this and that's why I'm stucked with this build. Will update it when windows 10 is officially released.
