I can't get past preview version 10166 :( I want the 10536!!

I'm on 100166 and when I change to the fast ring with the insider preview app, I then check for update and it shows three updates and then i start it but then like after 20 mins or depends the time varies but it always gives me an error so I'm stuck on 10066!! And I have a Lumia 640! I mean 10066 is ok but anybody having a similar issue? I'm upset!! I'm thinking of rolling back to 8.1 but idk for now I'm being patient and waiting...

I would try a hard reset without restore before rolling back. It's simply faster.

You need to roll back.. there was a bug that 10536 will come in two updates from 100166.. and they come in the wrong order, so it keeps error'ing out.. Roll back, install Insider, and go straight to 10536.. I run an Icon, but keep my 928 going on wifi.. I skipped an update on the 928 and needed the rollback.. this build finally works at a good speed on the 928, and real good on the Icon.

I'm having the same issue on my 640.

Do I just do a hard re-set, install Windows Insider, then Fast Ring?

You'll really have to hard reset and/or roll back to 8.1

The current fast ring build 10536 has improved and it's a build that I can consider "usable"

I had the same problem , you have to go back to 8.1 first ...

I was afraid of that, my Windows RT wont install the recovery tool

Might try a hard re-set first.
