Windows 10 Mobile build 15254.1 Discussion (Fast Ring)

[milkyway]

Yes, I too hope for an update soon... Camera and Maps app gave me some poorly timed malfunctions this last business trip

Well, tomorrow is Patch Tuesday. I would assume we will get 10254.11 or .12

Looks like it may not be the case, sadly. For me now my 950XL just restarts or goes to black screen and hangs quite regularly. I am not sure if it the OS or the battery. The phone is two years old and has not had any issues. It's just a pain to remove my case, then the back plate then the battery and put it all back together each time it decides to die on me.

In fact, when I used WDRT and went back to the Production Build it did the same thing. Maybe it is the battery, who knows? At least the battery is removable though, in this day and age that is rarer and rarer now.

Why don't you use soft reset (power button + volume down)?

It is ridiculous for Microsoft but if someone wants to get the patch 15254.12 must unlink the insider account and get it...

A battery (if you get an oem one) is a cheaper method for checking if that solves the issue. It sounds to me like that is the problem and if it is not then the next solution is the most expensive one...

i have tried that several times and it still wants to randomly reset.

I will hopefully get an Elite X3 for Christmas. I don't want to spend money on this device if I do not need to.

That is interesting to know. Did you try it? Do you just have to switch to Release Preview to get it or do you need to do a whole factory restore using WDRT?

UPDATE:

I left the Insider program and switched to release preview. I restarted my phone and checked for updates and now I am downloading "2017-11 Update for Windows 10 Version 1709 for arm based Phone Devices'.

UPDATE 2:

Now my build number is 15254.12.

That's for a good reason. 15254.12 is a cumulative update to the FCU. The Insider rings are for RS4 (or whatever they will call it)

This patch was in buildfeed from 8 november.
They could serve it to insiders in slow ring to test it before release.
Now that they havent release any 15400 builds, the insiders are behind the production ring.
Is this fair for insiders?

Exactly this.

Now my device is actually ahead of the Fast ring which doesn't make sense.

Buildfeed no longer showing feature 2 list. :/

New build broke my Store live tile again. Was working intermittently before, now not at all.

 

[Ryujingt3]

For me, the build they just released seems okay. No random resets yet. @Kerry2112, my Store tile doesn't update either but my other ones do (e.g. Groove).

Mine stopped after the Microsoft Store update. Both PC and Phone.

Worked for me too on my 640.

 

[Ryujingt3]

Are we all now on 15254.12? No random resets so far with this.

The link to buildfeed in post #93 above shows 15254.12 released on 11-8 and 15254.13 released on 11-10. What's the deal with .13?

I just updated my 950 XL yesterday by quitting the insider program and I updated to .12, .13 isn't showing up.

I also restored my 950 using WDRT and updated through the progression of builds...a pain....and without joining insider and the phone updated to 15254.12.

I take it insider for mobile is done?

Where can I find the list of bug fixes that .12 was said to address?
