Go yo settings> update and check for updates. It will download one.

I used the Chinese hack on my L920 and I found this the easiest way.

turn off the proxy setting on your wifi after reboot, go to phone update n hit the update,u will get the update

Not working. It says there is no update available.

most of people forget to hit the phone update after reboot, they are think that after they hit the insider fast/slow,phone will get the update after rebooting

In Access Point it says " INACTIVE : There may be a problem with access point settings, Restarting your phone may fix it ", but still no luck. Has anyone else encountered this problem and is there any solution to it ?

Same problem here

and very surprisingly the TP runs much smoother on these non listed models than it does on the listed 830, so don't really know at this point what MS reasons were for not including all models.

I am trying on ATT 1020. Not able to get the W10 build. After selecting fast/slow mode, it restarts the phone and no updates.
It installed something(not w10) for the first time, 'About' page is now showing denim.
Before:
App version - 1.2.128.1
OS version - 8.10.12393.890
Branch - WPMAIN
OEM - NOKIA
Model - RM-877_nam_att_205
FW version - 3051.50009.1425.2001

After:
App version - 1.2.128.1
OS version - 8.10.14219.341
Branch - WPB_CXE_R1
OEM - NOKIA
Model - RM-877_nam_att_205
FW version - 3051.50009.1425.2001

Please help.

Is there any way to download wp8.1.x to use with the Lumia software recovery tool separately. At home I've limited net but in uni I do have good access but no admin accounts, at home I do have my own pc (I need to reinstall the firmware and is to get the sysfreespace high again.) Then I can upgrade to ten using home connection.

No need to take risks. Gabriel Aul tweeted that he will share about new supported phones and build as soon as possible. 😃

there's a reason the release was as narrow as it was initially.

MS thinks its dealing with only Snapdragon 400 devices, so don't mess it up with the variability of your other devices. (I would think at least)

there's a way to download a firmware and install it with a program. With Nokia Care Suite. I've done it yesterday.

Ignore if u knew it
Lol its not the storage space you need rather the space on sys partition ...To check syspartition space click the about section in Windows Insider app..then divide the number by 1024*1024, then u will get total sys partiton space in MB (not GB)...Ensure this space is around 400-600mb for safe installation :)

seems to be a general bug with the TP.

it is probably the issue that I wrote about a few pages back where your 8.1 firmware is too new, please read thru to find out what im talking about.

I'm Sorry, I don't know why I typed 6.3 GB. It is 630 MB Free sys space!! And I know that I have to check through the Insider App. Thanks for your reply anyway!! But it is not helpful!!
Anybody have any idea why I am not able to install?
I have got an update but that is not W10.
Before the update:
App version - 1.2.128.1
OS version - 8.10.12393.890
Branch - WPMAIN
OEM - NOKIA
Model - RM-877_nam_att_205
FW version - 3051.50009.1425.2001

After the update:
App version - 1.2.128.1
OS version - 8.10.14219.341
Branch - WPB_CXE_R1
OEM - NOKIA
Model - RM-877_nam_att_205
FW version - 3051.50009.1425.2001

After the reset the Windows Insider App tells me that its done.
I shall go check phone updates to get updated.
When I check it tells me again no Update available... Its the china method.

LSRT ?? how to reset via LSRT ??
