W10M Insider Preview 10586.242 Issues (Threshold branch)

[nailzer]

Downloading now, will be interesting to see any difference, all I want is STEREO RECORDING on my 1020 and I will be happy, it seems such a simple request

I left the insider because I couldn't stand the draining battery and screen freeze. I hope these issues are gone. Downloading updates 26%.

Haven't been an issue for me since I've had my 640 and 950

How is the performance on a 512MB phone?

So far so good on my 625 (considering its a 512MB device). Its what you'd expect.

Best build yet on my 64xl. Working so much faster now!

 

[Cruachan 11]

71mb in size apparently, according to my 925.

So far so good on my 920. Anyone know what they fixed?

I love it on my Lumia 640. Windows 10 is awesome and only getting better.

Updated my L930, L925, L830, L820, L735 phones. Seems to be fine. But in my L930 the Flashlight button dissapered in the top dropdown meny. Just a blank square hole there now. Anyone else that got the same? How to get it back?

dos the AT&T Lumia 950 have this build yet?

Updated on my 950 XL, runs super smooth and even day one I want ot say the battery life is better. I turned Cortana and location back on and its draining about 1-1.5% per hour if I am not using it. Nice improvement for sure from the 3-4% I was experiencing before.

Running very well on my HTC One (M8 for Windows). I just wish for some more serious apps that can be used for business.

same here, but my kbs vary 192, 192, 198, 158 out of 4 short videos, 2 using Lumia Camera and the other 2 using Microsoft Camera (1020)

Greetings,
Updated my Lumia 640 to .242 last night without problems. Rich Capture seems to work correctly now, with shorter saving times. Battery usage remains at about 4.6%/hour (double 8.1).
In an attempt to improve battery life, I tried to shut off Cortana, but can find no settings to do so! Anyone know how to do this with 242?

 

[RumoredNow]

When .218 hit I got it on my 640 running Insider Release Ring and my 1520 running Official at the same time.

When .242 hit I got it promptly on my 640, my 1520 continues not to find it.

Theory:​ Release Ring is being prepped for Redstone.

Theory:​ Release Ring is being prepped for Redstone.

Seems a bit early, though, doesn't it? With the rumors of a late July release for the PC build, I'm assuming that the mobile would be on the same schedule. It's possible, but it seems to early for that.

 

[RumoredNow]

Could be cumulative. Fast and Slow must be teaching them something and they are patching retroactively I imagine. If the .242 is just patching Threshold, then WaaS should deliver it to Production like it did .218.

There is still an experimental element (limited risk) to Release. Witness how Release tested .168 for awhile before that went Production. Then .218 came pretty close behind.

Again, just a theory. I have no Inside knowledge (pun intended with malice), but won't they get way more telemetry pushing down the pyramid to the bottom? Heck, it's almost May now.
