Windows 10 for Phones will be out TODAY!

[Joe920]

No ETA for partition stitching, fantastic. That means end of Feb/beginning of March most likely.

Positive side effect: it will protect me from risking my dear 1520 on WP10 while our midrangers iron out the biggest bugs.

Here's fix for slow start screen: Just choose tetra lock screen as lock screen provider then lock your phone and you'll end up with buggy lock screen, than switch back to single photo lock screen and restart your phone. It worked for me, now I have smooth start screen

any 730 owner, please confirm if you can access both SIM cards (for making calls, sending messages and data connection) after installing W10.

In the list of Known Issues, it states clearly that it will not work with 2 SIM cards yet. That feature is not yet enabled. If you need 2 SIM cards, then you will need to wait before installing (until they get that fixed), or use a secondary phone to install the preview on.

EDIT: Scratch that. Official Microsoft known issues does not list that. That was from someone's post in the forums. They made it look like an official list, but it doesn't not match up with the Microsoft version. They won't even come forward with the source.

That's what I think. If MS does not list it, then it should not be an issue with 730. After all, 730 is a dual sim phone and MS can't take the risk of not allowing SIM2 to function with W10. They could have hold it for 730 like other high end phones. Still looking for someone to confirm ;-)

Can you make tiles completely transparent and how they look like without background?

No, you can only add background, there's nothing like we currently have with windows phone 8.1. Without background tiles are colored with accent color, nothing new. Also I noticed that accent colors are not actually correct, they are much darker.

Thanks, too bad for full transparency ..

That's a lie. I have Windows 10 installed and my background is exactly like it is on 8.1. I have a picture covering just the tiles and behind it is a completely black theme.

Dude, change your background and you'll be fine. That's how I got it to work

What? Lol I like how it was in 8.1. Why would I change my background if I like it as is? I was replying to the person stating that you can't have it like how it is in 8.1 and can only have the picture behind the tiles.

how to update using 3G ? i got unlimited 3G

I'm not trying to lie, be nice! I didn't see any options to do that in setting. Where can I find it?

My bad. Didn't mean to sound harsh.

To answer your question... Idk to be honest. It just worked for me. I didn't have to do anything, it was just like that.
