Note that the guideline is for devices which are running Windows 10 TH2.
I have successfully installed Windows 10 Redstone on my Lumia 520 with build 14393.67, so I post this topic for those who want to experience Windows Anniversary on a limited hardware device like me.
Firstly, you need to ensure your phone is "interop" and can be changed its registry. If yours can't, you can refer to the previous post "Interop Tools Appx for Windows 10 Mobile - registry editor" written by @dxdy
http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...interop-tools-appx-windows-10-mobile-t3373675
@dxdy: Thank you for posting...
Secondly, change your phone information to "Lumia 950 XL" (After installing the interop tool included in the link above - version 1.7 is recommended)
Open the interop app, navigate to Registry Browser
HKEY_LOCAL_MICHINE/SYSTEM/Platform/DeviceTargetingInfo, then change:
PhoneManuafacturer: "NOKIA" --> "MicrosoftMDG"
PhoneHardwareViriant: ----> RM-1085
PhoneManuafacturerModelName: ---> RM-1085
PhoneModelName: ---> Lumia 950 XL
Important: If you are participating in Insider, you MUST STOP it. Otherwise, you won't receive any builds even Fast/Slow/Release Ring
Go to Update/Check update --> if you see the anniversary build, just waiting as usual. If not, install Upgrade Advisor from the Store, then check
Sometimes, you need to check by both ways (Settings/check update and Advisor) in turn to get updates.
That's all...
Good luck to you
For those who are using WP8.1, you can search "How to interop WP 8.1/ change registry" to upgrade to Windows 10 TH2 first, then apply my guideline, it's supposed to be working fine too.
Is it still possible to update WP8.1 to windows 10 TH2 using interop? Have anyone tried it?

Yes... it is... I tried it when I downgraded my phone to 8.1, it's a bit more difficult than Windows 10 mobile, but you can

Thanks for the tutorial
for the moment I have the last build my lumia 520 10586.545

Indeed, I understand what you are worried
Needless to say, because of limited hardware, so the device will got stuck sometimes if you open more apps or "heavy apps" like Facebook (>300MB), Messenger (>200MB). However, in genneral, I feel it is even better than TH2 545 actually - opening apps faster, smoother, lots of interesting changes we need to explore.
I am happy with this anniversary build
Hope you will be brave and experience such amzing things
thanhquanctu
OK thank you very much
I'll do tonight
Anniversary build go for you
anniversary I build for you

As far as I know, it's okay if your phone has 1GB of RAM. Otherwise, there is no way.
Hopefully, we can experience RS2 when it is officially released

Hi,
Some months ago there was a method to interop unlock thanks to the connectivity setup app. Unfortunately this not possible today.
I have a developer unlocked phone but not a qalcomm bootloader and I don't want to open my phone.
Is there anyway to get the old xap of connectivity setup app, and then apply the patch? If yes where can I get that old xap, I can't find it?
Once I have the xap it seems like I can't deploy it using the classic Application Deployement Software. Is there any mean to interop unllock it without opening it?
Thank you in advance.

Yes, but when?
I have read that many Lumia users were able to install Windows 10 on unsupported phones but it doesn't seem to work for me in Lumia 520. I either get 'Server Error' or 'no builds'. What is it that I have done a mistake and how can I install Windows 10 on my 520?
P.S. I'm not an expert so I need step-by-step method.

if you not expert, maybe Win TP not for you?
look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10/general/howto-install-windows-10-phones-t3030105
You have to use a custom certificate to trick the app into thinking you're on a different phone that has official Windows 10 support.
This tutorial worked for me

Hi, here's a tutorial, which worked for me, but it is German. You'll probably understand it by watching the video. http://wparea.de/2015/02/windows-10...nterstuetzten-smartphones-installiert-werden/
This worked for my Lumia 520, you just need to use following values in the registry editor instead.
PhoneFirmwareRevision
02061.00074.14273.33019
PhoneManufacturerModelName
RM-975_1005
PhoneMobileOperatorName
ATT-US
thx
Good news Than you.
Please login again or use a different user name.
How to fix it.
Hi
First of all sorry for my bad english, im from germany ^^
I bought a microsoft lumia 950 and i like it very much, but actually im use an Galaxy s6 with my normal android apps.
And i really need these apps on my lumia too. I've read a lot about project astoria, the wconnect.exe tool and xap apps, but astoria is dead and the wconnect.exe tool doesn't work for me (allways getting error-8).
And now my question, is there another possibility to install/sideload android apps or any other apps ?
Device: Microsoft Lumia 950
Software: Win Mobil 10
Version: 1511
Build: 10.0.10586.11
Firmware : 01078.00027.15506.02027
i search for apps like : Youtube , Playstation network, Playstation messages, real instagram etc.
i would be very grateful for your help !
HI,
There is still no way to install apk on Windows 10.
We have to wait to see if it is coming back or not.

It is called sideloading apps. So yes - you can sideload apps - just like you can sideload apk files on android.
Hello guys, today I just figure out a way to get redstone on 512mb devices, this is not an tutorial, its a petition for windows phone users who have an official eligible lumia device for Windows 10 Mobile to share a real important data from their official windows devices.
In this case I need some screenshots from a device updated with upgrade advisor and not via windows insider, needs to be on TH2 of course, I'm trying to bypass MS hardware verification process. this process block our devices with 512mb to be connected througth Windows Insider Server.
Things I need to setup a working method for upgrade our devices to RS1:
1- Official eligible Lumia device for Windows 10 Mobile
2- Device updated througth Upgrade Advisor
3- screenshots> 1 with default W10m Extras&info outdated and other with Extras&info updated.
4- install interop tools.
5- Navigate for the followings strings:
(Instead of /OEM/NOKIA can be /OEM/Microsoft or /OEM/MicrosoftMDG)
HKLM/SOFTWARE/OEM/Nokia/Variant/BSPRelease
HKLM/SOFTWARE/OEM/Nokia/Variant/ConfigurationID
HKLM/SOFTWARE/OEM/Nokia/Variant/labelID
HKLM/SYSTEM/Platform/DeviceTargetingInfo/ < here I need all the strings stored for example: "PhoneManufacturer" "PhoneManufacturerModelName" "PhoneModelName" "PhoneHardwareVariant" and more.
6- Shared all these info from your device here + screenshots and let call it a day, redstone is waiting for us guys!
Do you know a way to get WM10 on 512 mb device right now? I''m stuck and unable to update since MS change the release preview ring to the redstone build.
a registry edit is not enough, if you managed to install RS1 your phone will simply bootloop, there are missing files that are related to that continuum hack and cant be shared at the moment, so please just be patient, whenever they can share the procedure they will make it available, asking a bazillion times wont change a thing

No but there is a rendering issue (on devices with virtual keys) which causes apps not to fit to the screen. Normally, you hide the nav bar and it is fixed but 630 doesnt have that hiding option.
New version of DHT UpgradeAdvisor released and should be allow you to upgrade your phones . http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...-dht-upgrade-advisor-redstone-lumias-t3434774

I have the same issue on where some apps not fit, but lumia 635 and 636 have the same screen resolution so I think updating to the new release preview cummulative update will fit again

Hi
I've updated a long time ago my Lumia 530 to Windows 10 with the registry hack.
After a long time since I've last used it, I I needed to reuse it, but I had to reset it with Windows tool, because it wasn't working well, due to the long time of shut down without battery. Obviously the tool gave me 8.1.
I wanted to do the hack again, because I luckily saved the website page, but, doing the same steps, the phone still doesn't find Windows 10 update. In addition, most of the tuts that you can find online are outdated, so they're useless (also because you cannot join insider program anymore).
I need Windows 10, also due to work issues.
Can you please help me? Any help is really appreciated! :highfive:
Thanks in advance & regards,
F

Hi
Thank you for your help but Lumia 530 doesn't have Windows 10, I did an hack to update it. When I used this tool, it said "no updates available".
I was searching for a working hack to permit the update in my phone, because the one I used doesn't work anymore.
Thanks:highfive:
The Lumia 530 is not compatible with Windows 10 because it only has a 4 GB memory board, and 8 GB is the minimum (with 1 GB of RAM). A hack exists, but requires external storage and a modification of device targeting info.
Moreover, it does not work well under CU or FCU. Stay on AU.

The modification of devicetargetinginfo was exactly what I was looking for. Can you please tell me one that works? I've tried with Lumia 9xx series but it doesn't work well. Can you please send me another one? Thank you :highfive:
PS Can you please send me not only the device name, friendly name, hardware variant? Because it seems like there's a conflict between one of the edited values and a stock value, TY
Hi,is there a way in 2020 to put W10 in a no eligible Lumia 530?I have tried the trick with "Windows insider" and "Preview for developers" one year ago but that didn't work (impossible enter in fast ring) and the Wphone 8.1 store shut down now .Do you think I can do it if I modify the registry with custom-pfd-003.xap to pretending my phone is a 535 instead of 530 and after I will apply the OTC UPDATE.I'm wondering if that will work .
Thank you
