Windows 10 on 521?

[ML10]

I have one laying around, and I want to put windows 10 on it. Any issues before I make the jump? I know I'm bound to run into some, but any that really impact performance? Thanks.

Hey thanks for the reply!

This seems like a general list. The 521 is indeed a different device from a 1520, so I was asking for any specific issues for the 521. My bad in not specifying. Thanks.

I understood quite well but I thought I'd give you the general list for now lol

Don't worry about it. I appreciate your help though. I watched some videos online. Seems to work well.

If you do go trough with it, perhaps you can post your initial review under w10 for phones --> 521

If your 521 is your primary phone, I advise against installing it. most noticeable is the sluggishness and lag in it. There's some cool nice little things about it, but I don't feel its worth this hassle. Granted, I is a preview, so I can't really complain, but I would remain wary

Not my primary, but I don't want to brick it. I think I might hold back. Just saw a thread with a 520 not working so... I'll wait

That's probably the best route. I'm a little let down, but hopefully Microsoft gets on it

Yeah. I was really hoping that just maybe I could do it without big threatening risks, but I guess I do have to accept that it's a tech preview, it's label is risky. But you never know, maybe if I see if people aren't complaining as much I'll download it. For now I'll keep it safe

I think you should wait for the "Slow Ring" update

For sure it's less risky than the fast ring.... but is it still too risky?

No.. It still has a chance to brick your phone, but it's less than 1%.. Most of the bugs will be caught in the "Fast Ring" and most of them will be fixed by the time the slow ring gets the update

Oh sweet in that case... I'll do it! It's not primary (though I still value it nonetheless).
