Same problem here with Lumia 730...

Did you make hard reset after updating to latest build?

Yes I did , it didn't use to work on 166 too even after doing a hard reset

Can anyone help on this one please

Hi i`ve just recently bought a Nokia Lumia 1020 from china..
And joined windows 10 insider fast ring, i`ve had no problems upadating this phone from windows 8.1 to the latest
offering from microsoft, but for the life of me i cannot downgrade back to win 8.1
I`ve read all the tutorials i`ve done numerous soft & hard resets tryed different usb cables tryed different ports unistalled and reinstalled
WRT..
Now here is the thing that i don`t get,
When i connect my phone to my PC running win 7 WRT recognises my phone and then proceeds to tell me that there isn't
anything available on the server..
So i have held the volume button down & power pressed in, and restarted WRT to find my phone which it does and then proceeds to download a new rom.
But the new rom is for a different phone.. this is the rom downloaded by WRT
RM877 3051 50009 1451 1 RETAIL nam att 205 01 473928 prd signed.ffu
My installed rom is RM-875-apac_hong_kong_223

first of all : why downgrade? have problem with w10?

Thanks for your response, there is a issue with the camera not working. I had no problems with this until i upgraded to win 10
This is the main reason for me buying this phone because of the camera,

yes of course 1020 has great camera
but im not sure every people with 1020 who upgrade to W10M have this problem...
what is your problem?
do u try Lumia camera beta?

For some reason that app is not showing on windows store for me

Try That
Lumia Camera Beta https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9wzdncrfjbm0

Intersting, my phone is just in the process of updating the windows store, i`ll check when it`s finnished to see if it shows
Thank you kwanice i`ll keep you informed..
Still does not answer the question why i`m struggling to down grade back to win8.1 though & why the server is downloading a different
file i.e mines 875 and yet the downloaded file is 877, or is it compatable, and why does my phone reject the install?

Well updated windows store, and searched again for lumia camera beta, and it`s not showing anything

Need Help With My Lumia 950 !!

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.

As I know Prototype devices are not allowed to download updates by this way.
They have specific rom for themselves you have to find them and it's really not easy to find and updated ROM for them .

Install Windows 10 Mobile Redstone 14393.67 on 512 RAM devices

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

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
