If any of you try the WP10 preview let me know if maps works... On My 1520 this morning I was one of the first to get it and maps wouldn't launch at all.. Nothing.. no Here Maps, No Here Drive, and no new Maps app... I need it for navigation so I already went back to 8.1 but if it's working for any of you I may give it another shot.
Thanks!

Well both the 1020 and the 1520 are confirmed. I have yet to install on my 1320. I am postponing installing on my 1520's because of the Office apps being non-existent in this build (I use Office and OneNote a lot on my 1520's for work).

You need to get the preview build to get GDR2. I think if you don't want to install the W10TP you can postpone its installation. It downloads automatically as soon as GDR2 is installed and your phone reboots.

I tried that but still nothing, maybe a reset will do the job but I would rather not have to reset my device.

This is how I got mine: Open Windows Insider again, check for new builds, Phone reboots on its own, Settings, Check for updates, there it was W10TP started downloading.

Didn't WC say that the theft protection in GDR2 can only be activated through fresh setup? So that means we would have to hard reset? Anyone willing to find out? I'm installing updates at this time.

The appearance of GDR 2 is not unexpected. When I put my 635 on the first round of Insider it got bumped to Denim before getting 10 and Denim is still not available to ATT 635...

It's just prep for 10.

I'm updating Fast Track 10 for round two. Will advise if I get "GDR 2" as prep.

US AT&T version Lumia 1520 - tried to get 8.1 GDR2 Update
I had PFD enabled and then downloaded the insider app put myself on fast ring and then checked for phone update after phone rebooted. Once download was complete I uninstalled insider app and turned off PFD, letting the update install now. It is win 10 TP, never saw 8.1 GDR2.

My 635 never stopped at GDR2... straight to 10 round 2.

I think it is akin to the extras + info deal that has been ongoing. A quick test is can you double tap nav bar and lock the phone? That is a confirmed GDR2 feature.
