How to get 8.1 GDR2 with WP10 in the fast ring?

I am afraid you have done wrong seems like a misunderstanding on your end. I think i haven't explained this thoroughly..So it's on my end too..But anyway redo these steps if you intend to...No you should do it... as you said you love troubleshooting.

1) Flash back to AT&T 8.1-->OS:8.10.123.890, same Cyan firmware: 3051.5009.1425.2001. (I asked to install windows insider app to confirm that you are on the main branch and I never said to select the rings either fast or slow..so don't choose the options at this step in windows insider)

2) Install Developer preview app and check for updates and you have to get denim os update from it. (Check the branch you are currently on using windows insider app now the branch changes from main branch to another branch)

3)After all the updates from phone update installed unenroll in the Developer preview app and Now check whether the Windows Insider offers only fast ring if it does then proceed by selecting fast ring.

Note : In step one and two don't choose the rings from Windows Insider app becoz that was just to check the update branch on which you are currently on.

Good luck.

Hi Conan 143,

Yes indeed, I have double/checked this...and in the final scenario...My Windows Insider Rings show both Fast & Slow....and
About: Branch: WPB_CXE-R1.....no success, but I enjoy doing this type of troubleshooting...lol
Has to be related to Carrier code......oh well, I'm a little burnt out, but thanks again m8!

Hell it's 50+pages of users getting 8.1.2 GDR 2, but then not getting any updates to the Windows 10 Mobile TP Builds...lol
So I'm goings to see if I can PM one of the Microsoft Engineers..(MSFT)....now that they seem to have the issues under control...lol..

We will see Conan 143...lol!
