I've asked this before in an unrelated thread and never saw an answer. This time I figured I would focus directly on this issue to see if I could find an answer from anybody in here.
Apparently with the Windows Insider App for our Windows Phones has two branches.
? WPB_CXE_R1
? WPB_CXE_R2
You can determine which branch you are a part of by opening the app and checking the "About" section.
Why does it matter?
Well as it was explained to me before, those who are in the R2 Branch can get the GDR2 update regardless of the phone model they are using..... Those who are on the R1 Branch can not.
I bring this up because I keep hearing from people time and time again about how they have gotten their phones like the 930 to update to GDR2..... But I can not.
Guess what branch I am on?
R1.
I know the steps to get GDR2 the normal way and it is not very hard to do. I easily got my wife's 1320 onto GDR2 while preventing W10 from installing.... So I have some level of understanding on what to do and not to do.
She did have W10 installed for a couple of days but it was pretty rough and even the recovery back to 8.1 wasn't very smooth, but I sorted it.
Anyways, my main questions are these:
#1 - What Determines if you are in the R1 or R2 branch for the Windows Insider App?
#2 - Does anybody know how to get the app to download or install or to switch to the R2 Branch?
I looked online several times and found nothing that remotely speaks of this specific part of the Windows Insider App.
Hugs and Kisses..... And Rainbow Lollypops in advance.
