Hello everyone
I do have 2 lumia 928 phones and one of those i have updated to windows 10 preview buids. I cant update the second one to windows 10 since windows insider no longer supports for it. So theres no way of updating my second lumia to WP10. I want to know whether there is a way to transfer the windows 10 installed system files from my updated lumia to other one and get it updated too. Because im running out of options....

I am creating this thread out of frustration in not being able to perform what seems like a simple OTA update to Windows 8.1 on my Lumia 810. I have used Android all throughout and am an expert when it comes to rooting and installing customs roms so I am thoroughly aware of things I need to do before I get 8.1. I have been able to get 8.1 succesfully on the 928 and the 521 so I have Preview for Developers installed on my phone. I have used the Nokia Recovery Tool to reinstall the OS and even managed to get through to the two updates prior to installing 8.1 where it gives me the message how I'll love 8.1.
This is where I am stuck. I get messages from "unable to download" or "Downloaded but cannot install" dumba$$ MS messages. I have tried 6 different wifis, turned the clock back, forward, region changes, lnguage pack changes, blah and blah. Nothing effin works!
Finally, I am concluding this is a space allocation issue. When I go into storage check, it shows more than 4 GB available but how do I give more space to system? I tried file manager/explorer but nothing works. I am 100% positive that the moment I give more space in the system folder I should be golden. I have tried removing apps, etc. but I don't think this affects system storage space. I have been trying this for the past 10 days but not going anywhere.
Thanks!

Seriously Lumia 810? 928 and 521 are windows 8. 810 is Windows 7, 7.5 up to 7.8 only. So there is no other way to upgrade it to 8.1. You are a good one when it comes to rooting your phone. But you aint good on doing a google search:laugh:
jaythang, Lumia 810 is a WP8 device! It's a 820 variant -_-
Have tried to hard reset e for first thing try to upgrade?

Lol. I know the 810 does not have an upgrade path but the phone can get 8.1 as per my Google search and some 810 users on this forum .
Lumia 810 is a windows phone 8 device.
To get 8.1, you need to be a registered developer, as the official version is still not yet available to the general public.

Don't know what part of the world you're from and I'm giving you the benefit of doubt but in the good old US of A, I get this for a quick Google search.

http://www.neowin.net/news/windows-phone-81-preview-for-developers-now-available
Both these links mention that while the 810 may not get an official upgrade path, it will be through Preview for developers. Also, there are many users on this forum who claim they have 8.1 running on their 810s. :laugh::laugh::laugh:
But, how many device have you upgraded with your Dev Account? You can associate max 3 devices to a dev account

Hey everyone,
I have an old L920 with WP 8.1 currently installed (I flashed it to a CV GB Non carrier last year). I want to reflash it again back to Windows Phone 8 Update 3 (last one before 8.1) but can't find where to get the ROM files. NavFirm+ doesn't seem to be working anymore.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

Thanks, but that's how to roll back from WinPhone 10 mobile back to 8.1 from the preview program. That doesn't apply here. I'm not enrolled in WP10 preview and I don't want 8.1. That's what's installed already.
I need a way to download old WP 8 ROM's

Hi,
On the Lumia 930, Win 10 mob seems to be the only option available through Insider and on LumiaFirmware.com I can only find Win 8.1 Update 1 FFUs. I'm sure Update 2 was once available for the 930 but I can't find it anywhere now.
Cheers,
M.

NO NEED TO UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER U NEED TO CLICK ON MANUAL MODE AND THEN
MASS STORAGE MODE
Doesn't work
Hi, i have a Lumia 930 with WP 8.1 Update 1 and want to move to GDR2. The WPInterals program version shown in the Video linked above (V1.2) does not support this model, so i used the latest (V2.8).
When i want to enter mass storage mode with this it says i Need to unlock Bootloader first, which does not work however (Bad GPT error).
Any clues what to do to get to GDR2 ?
Thanks

Use Windows Insider app, will get you windows 10 mobile 10586.107 at first. Once you get it, you can take a lot of paths to get AU(14393.x), CU(15063.x) or FCU(15254.x) builds. I've tested all of them on my device and all work well, you'll need to increase the pagefile for the best multitasking experience. I would suggest that, before getting w10m, get windows device recovery tool and run it on your device to get a clean 8.1 rom, once you get it, download windows insider app from the store, enroll and search for updates, this will get the w10m rom download and once it finishes, it will as you to reboot, do it and it will install.
Remember always to have 40% or more battery. And save your photos, videos, etc. before doing anything.
