W10 TP on our 810

[Guzzler3]

Why do I have a sinking feeling that our beloved 810's will be left out of the Technical Preview?

Same here but oh well it had a good run and was the phone that I believe had the least amount of problems

They weren't left out of the Preview for Developers and aren't overly unique, considering it has the 820 and 822 siblings.
I don't think they'll be left out, but I don't expect it to be one of the devices it can be used on until its the turn of the 920, 820 and similarly equipped phones.

Hope not, this was going to be my Win 10 development device. Not willing to risk the 1520 yet :smile:.

You can try it via the hack.But you need the latest preview build of denim via the Preview for Developers app

It seems that we're good after all :O
Next Windows 10 for phones build will expand to a massive number of devices | Windows Central

I hope this brings updated drivers..

Well now. I guess if I get a new phone, I can mess around with W10. Always nice to have that option.

Has anyone tried it yet? I also read you can get 8.1 Update 2 through TP and opt out of W10.... Hmmm

I'm also curious if anyone has tried it.

I went to enroll for TP to get Update 2. I went through Fast Track but instead of Update 2, i was immediately sent to W10. So far in the short timeframe I had it, no performance hits or anything. Just make sure to turn off SIM PIN first if you have it on and you decide to go to W10 (I had a Secure SIM and PIN on and whenever I entered it, phone locks up).

Moromi-kun,

Out of curiosity, did it update the firmware?

Personally, I'm holding out till they get Office available for W10TP Phone. I use OneNote daily, and I can't live without it. And yep, I'll be living on the wild side of putting the TP on my daily driver :shocked:

W10TP is installed on my Lumia 810. First problem I had with SIM card I had to do hard rest. SIM works well! Glance screen is not working.
So far what I found.

When I follow the instructions and it brings me to the Windows Insider App on the phone, it says its not available for my phone.

I put win 10 on my 810 since I didn't want to put it on my 830. I'm using my 810 as a daily driver to get a feel of how win 10 is going to be . It works it's a little rough around the edges but it works

Sadly still on Amber. I ended up rolling back due to Office Hub being removed and the state of some of the apps. For those taking the plunge but want to return back to 8.1, use the Lumia Software Recovery Tool instead of the Windows Phone Recovery Tool since WP Tool seems to fail for some reason. I did end up reporting the SIM PIN bug and of course, make sure to report bugs you encounter as well

How are you guys installing WP10? I'm following the directions on the TP website but it's not allowing me to install the app from the store. I'm on 8.0 on t-mobile. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

On Friday Windows Insider App was telling me that I have an update.
I am on prepay plan with T-Mobile.

 

[myriad46]

I'm not activated right now, just on wifi. Wonder if that has something to do with it.

I'm thinking it requires 8.1 at least or whatnot first.
I would use the Developer Preview program to bring that phone up to date first. Got a few updates ahead of you!
