Microsoft is now supporting more smartphones to run its
latest Windows 10 Mobile preview build. Very recently, the Redmond-based
company rolled out build number 10080 and promised that it would offer support
for more Lumia smartphones along with a non-Lumia smartphone as well.
The above devices included the Lumia 640 and HTC One (M8)
handsets. However, users of these smartphones running Windows Phone 8.1 Update
2 were not seeded the Windows Mobile 10 10080 build software due to non
availability of direct upgrade paths from Windows Phone 8.1 Update 2 to the
latest Windows 10 build.
But now, Microsoft has seemingly corrected the above issue
and has come out with a direct upgrade path, for users of Windows Phone 8.1
Update 2, to install and run Windows Mobile 10 bearing build number 10080.
Announcing the above development via an official tweet,
Microsoft's Insider head honcho Gabriel Aul stated that Microsoft Windows 10
Mobile engineers have come out with an upgrade path that offers Windows 10
Mobile to Lumia 640 and HTC One (M8) owners across the world, running Windows
Phone 8.1 Update 2 (GDR2).
Hence, users of HTC One (M8) and Lumia 640 should notice the
availability of a new software OTA update that should provide for a quick
one-step installation of Windows 10 (having build number 10080).
Do check out for the new OTA updates representing the most
recent Windows 10 build, and let us know whether you are able to install/run
Windows 10 preview on your handsets.
