[chefster74]

I'm almost at a full charge, I'll post tomorrow, maybe it may like a few charging cycles?

That's the OS build. What's your firmware? In the same spot in About - thanks.

Just commenting to say I'm glad Verizon is pushing the update. I left Verizon for two reasons, over priced and I wanted a lumia 950 (wanted the 950 more than I cared about monthly price). I'm on straight talk now with a 950 and very happy. Great job Verizon

sigh....just sold my Icon 3 weeks ago. I have an iPhone 6, might have to try to find one eBay cheap...

So it's currently no different than being Insider Release Preview.

Is there a clean image available, or do we have to use the upgrade advisor?

I'm on the latest redstone release and my phone seems to be operating fine. battery life is normal for a 2yr old phone. "Hey Cortana" has always worked for me.

That's right. Since Verizon didn't publish any new firmware, they essentially just tested that the current firmware worked well enough with Windows 10. I don't ever expect to see new firmware, and due to that, no new factory image. My mother has a Blu HD that's in the same boat. The Icon should now continue to receive OS updates for some time though!

Last insider update. It is eating my Battery

Has anyone noticed if the the proximity sensor works when making a call with the production build from Verizon? I have been using insider preview on the Icon in preview release and fast rings and when you make a call (no bluetooth) the screen is practically impossible to get it to come on. Very hard to hang up, have to wait till the other party hangs up. That is about the only issue I have had with Insider builds, but if they have fixed this on Verizon version, I will make the effort to recover and upgrade using the supported version.

The official update hasn't been kind to my battery either... but this is my first experience with 10 so I don't know if this it's going to settle down in a couple days.

I've been using the latest fast ring build with little problems. Hey Cortana works, live tiles work and the battery lasted more than 24 hours. The problem I have is with networking. It seems as though it has difficulty transitioning from wireless to cellular. If you want to know how specific feature is working, just ask.

 

[vEEP pEEP]

you might have to reset the region and language again

 

[g808]

Didn't notice any major issues upgrading on the fast ring. I'll admit it's not my daily phone, but seemed fine.

 

[SteveNoza]

So is the official Verizon W10 update coming from the stock updating process? I still don't have it.

 

[electricgary]

I went back to 8.1 and then updated to 10 using windows adviser or whatever the app is. I did not think the battery life was very good at all So I went back to the fast ring the battery life on build 14372.0 is very good.

You need to go through the Upgrade Advisor app to get the official update. You can download that in the app store.

I've updated from 8.1 to Verizon's release of 10 and I've noticed no issues with the proximity sensor.

I updated to Official Windows 10 version using the Upgrade Advisor App. Process was smooth but that was the end of good exerpience. Life of battery has tanked after the upgrade. My phone has gone from one charge a day to a minimum of two charges a day and that is without any increase in usage if not decrease :unhappysweat:. A couple of other issues that i'm seeing are
1) Facebook app is consuming a lot of cellular data.
2) Messaging app is slow. I have to wait 5-10 secs to see my text posted after i click on send arrow. it might just be because i'm new to Win 10 messaging but is it supposed to work with such long delays?
3) Also, i don't see any update on the tile for Mail app when i get new emails.

UX certainly looks smooth and has some nice transitions but issue with battery life is anhilating my experience on Windows 10 mobile.

Do a hard reset and then adjust your background apps. Had to do the same with my wife's 640. She's back to a day and half again like on 8.1.
