W10M release dates? Answers inside...

Hi.

If we leave the insider will we start receiving WM10 updates even if our phone is not the Lumia 950/XL or 550?

Yes but only of there are updates for your device.

I'm not sure what's happening at Microsoft end. They must be having ton loads of developers who should be able to get the OS ready on time. It might be something to do with their strategy or marketing sense that the update release is getting delayed. May be they want to be sure any capable upgrade doesn't stay on old device.

It's more than just the operating system. Yes, there might be issues that they have to sort out (especially after the network carriers have performed their own testing). There's also a heck of a lot of infrastructure that needs to be in place in order to have some hope of a successful roll-out. There might also be legal/regulatory issues that need to have the agreements ratified for. There's a whole ton of stuff that needs doing which isn't really the same as someone deciding to flip a switch on a Tuesday morning to release the software to the world.

If I remember correctly, a lot of the developers, testers and quality assurance personnel were, to put it bluntly, fired. So the development team is working with a sizeable reduction in the taskforce. Critically the quality assurance and testing teams have been reduced a lot. I would expect that this has an impact on speed and quality of new builds and apps

I have the same issue with my Lumia 640. The issue is listed there in Feedback app. Upvote there

So its specific to l640only. Can't upvote now, reverted back to 8.1 after 2days of using w10m, too buggy

Throwing more developers at a project rarely works well.

I've been running the latest version on my every day phone (Lumia 930) and back-up phone (Lumia 920) and only had a problem with the camera (l930) which was cured with a restart. apart from that it's been stable with no glitches.

This is the Insiders, right?

What's the latest on when we'll see the office W10 Mobile?

 

[slooksterpsv]

I think the update will come very soon. I think we're all impatient. I'll guess ... February 16

Only the first 2 posts are the most important and 90+% of the other posts are off topic / rants / etc. If there is news the first 2 posts are updated but if there is no news posting "rants" does not "make" news.

So the official release will be in 'late February'

I think we should thank Microsoft for choosing the shortest month,
so THANK YOU Microsoft for delaying the release for us to that short month,

you'r the best!

I face a bug with Rich Capture in camera and in a background app issue. For me, there is not much bugs, just enjoying the universal apps and other modified apps in W10M.

Feb 20 is date for l650 and Win 10m hope so,

I have the new insider build and it's insane I'd give it 8/10

Which one .63 or .71

.63 and I have found that using the smaller keyboard is so handy it makes typing so fast.
