W10M release dates? Answers inside...

It shouldn't be. The first post in this thread links to a list of the devices that are expected to be updated first. We've known for months that neither of those devices will be amongst the first.

No, we've known for months that there will be 3 waves of updates. Today we learn that there is only the first wave of updates, phones not on today's list will never get the update. They will also stop getting Insider Preview builds, stopping at 10586 branch. And it looks like, from today, if you are not on the list and have 8.1 on your device, you cannot get on the Insider Preview.

Anyway, going to buy a 640 now, and leave my 620 on 8.1 ...

First update advisor app. Than open the app.

 

[abhishek singh21]

well even eligible devices wont see the upgrade from the inbuilt settings phone update. thats what this official page from Microsoft states. you need to download upgrade advisor in order to receive the update.

Are you absolutely positive? Has this been stated explicitly? If so, where?

What?

I downloaded an app called UpdateAdvisor and checked through that - it checks if youre phone is eligible I think. If it is, it says an update is available - but then go to "phone settings", then "phone update" to start the update.

It's listed in batch 1 on the page linked in the first page of this thread. So.... who knows, just a waiting game.

I see the L1320 in batch 2. 1520 is in batch 1. What I'm not clear on is why I cannot see the Update Advisor app in the Store from my phone. I'm on 8.1 with the Denim update. Is availability of the Update Advisor app device-dependent?

Guys, I am new here, I am using 640xl (India) & I have received Win 10 OTA update notification.
My only concern now is
1.Do I have to backup my contacts? (coz I don't have any backup copy)
2.What happens to my SD card contents (though they don't have any confidential contents just songs & videos)

 

[chendsai]

Download Update advisor from store,and then check from it,It worked for me.

 

[Chowchilla]

yeah, ran that program and it said:

Good News! Your phone is eligible for upgrade to Windows 10. We are working with your mobile operator and phone manufacturer to make the upgrade available for your phone and you'll see a notification when it's ready".

unusual it would say that on a unlocked device, even took out the sim card and it still said it.

 

[ImfamousLegend]

Thats whats happened to me.

The update will keep your contacts and data. Only apps that are incompatible with Windows 10 may be lost (I haven't seen any yet). Better to backup incase something goes wrong during the update and you have to run recovery

First install upgrade advisor then it will be available for you. and upgrade advisor is not available in the store when you search for it. Install it from a link
