Don't get the 8.1 preview on my Huawei W2

[ArthurRump]

I wanted to download the preview for WP8.1, so I downloaded the app on my dev unlocked device. I accepted the terms, checked the checkbox and clicked done. I received 3 updates (OS version is now: 8.0.10521.155), but not the 8.1 update. My phone's language was Dutch, but also when I change it to English I don't get an update!

Sorry to hear that, Arthur.
I was very tempted to have the Huawei W2 because it was so cheap in the UK (?11 per month contract) but on doing some research I wondered whether the W2 had enough memory to take the 8.1 update installation. Could you uninstall some of your apps and then try again perhaps?
I finally got the Nokia Lumia 925 with a higher spec because it's being discontinued in favour of the new 930 so I got it for only ?16.99 per month.

I've 2.06 GB free memory, but it still doesn't update. How much memory does the update need?

You wont be able to update as microsoft temporarily stopped the dev preview because of update issues on huwaie and Samsung phones. Once microsoft fixes the issue you can check for the update right now your phone is perfectly normal

Hi, have you managed to upgrade your W2 yet? My problem is exactly as you described. I correctly applied all the steps and the 8.1-update doesn't show.

Sorry, for the late reply... (I didn't look at this after solved, for me at least...) I upgraded my W2 successfully (even 8.1.1 now). As far as I know I didn't something besides the developer preview app...

I am still stuck at 8.0.10521.155 :unhappy:
