Use the chinese method it is the simplest of all if you still wanna try rusty grom method then in wpflights.xml change the modelname

<RegistryKeyValue>
<Name>PhoneManufacturerModelName</Name>
<Value>RM-978_1046</Value>
<ValueType>1</ValueType>
</RegistryKeyValue>
</Values>
</RegistryKey>

with the modelname of your country eligible devices for W10

Yes using the Chinese method. But it resulted in a boot loop. I will be retrying later when I get back home.

Interested in hearing more from you. If you manage to install it without bootloop please report.

Ah i think Windows 10 would be looking like a beauty on your large display

Currently spinning gear screen. Hasn't moved much with the status bar. But im sure that's normal.

I am finally able to play with Windows 10 this morning. And I have to say after a restore and installing my apps the build seems to be stable and has hardly any bugs on Nokia Lumia 928. Thank you Microsoft for your hard work!!!

How do I edit the registry using CustomPFD?

How do I edit the registry using CustomPFD?

Edit this registry hklm/system/platform/devicetargetinginfo/phonemanufacturermodelname
And hklm/system/platform/devicetargetinginfo/devicefirmwarerevision with the details of eligible devices of your country if your device is of some specific carrier then change this registry too make sure you use above details of that carrier hklm/system/platform/devicetargetinginfo/phoneopertaorinfo

This one is too much time consuming as we need to search alot for the details.
So i would advise you to try rusty method or Chinese method

I'm trying to do the XDA method but I'm don't know to do this: 6. Connect to the same WiFi that your PC is on. Edit the settings for the WiFi connection to turn on the Proxy and set it to use the PC’s IP address and enter 8877 for the port
It would be greatly appreciated if you could help me

Do you have the productcodeinfo if not then do Chinese method as it doesn't require any product code.
If you have info then for IP address run cmd on pc and type ipconfig/all and note down the ipv4 address(I.e 192.168.x.xxx) and now on your mobile open WiFi tap and hold on your WiFi network select edit and turn on proxy type in server/url your ipv4 address and in port 8877
Now open IE and type http:\\192.168.x.xxx:8877 and follow the steps there.

P.s if you are using rusty method then make sure you edit the modelname info in wpflights.xml file

Even after the tons of confirmation of Windows 10 running fine on 520, still wondering about the 521. I think I'm just reluctant to flash my phone for some reason.
