How To Upgrade Any Windows Phone To Windows Phone 10 (New)

Before we starting , please have a look at this .

I'm holding a Lumia 6 40 device .

It Stiffel Factory Oz is Windows phone 8.1 .

But you can see it's now running Windows 10 to prove it .

Let's go to settings system about and here you can see the software version is Windows 10 Mobile .

So let's begin .

Hi there guys .

Welcome back .

It's been a long time since we had done something special for window phone users .

So I think it's time to do another today .

We're gonna be showing you how to upgrade any window phone to window phone 10 or Windows 10 Mobile .

I know I have made a similar video in the past , but that method doesn't exist anymore or it can only give you the developers preview of Windows 10 .

But with this official and latest method , you can upgrade your old Windows phone eight or 8.1 to the latest Windows 10 Mobile .

Don't think twice .

It is a full version without any bugs and we are all doing it the official way before we start in the tractional part .

Let me just tell you a couple of things .

Even I mentioned this model will work for all the window fons .

But I really meant to say that it will work for the majority of window fons from the past few years to check if your model is compatible for this upgrade .

Please have a look at this .

These are all the windows in upgrade compatible devices officially .

If you identify your model here , then you're good to go .

Otherwise you're out of luck .

We hope Microsoft will announce a software version for Windows Mobile for your particular model as well .

You can also check the device upgradability in the video description as well .

I hope all you have your window phones fully charged or connected to your parcel is very important .

I recommend you to keep your phones connected to a charger throughout the procedure .

Otherwise there is a high risk because when we're doing upgrades , especially while the installation process , if the power of your battery goes down will crash your phone and your phone will end up in a state of malfunction .

Don't worry , you can recreate even if that's the case , but it's better to take proper pres before attempting something like this .

And the next thing you have to do is to make sure you have backed up all the important files and contacts to an external source or even to the cloud if you have something that important .

And the final thing you have to do is get your phone connected to your proper internet connection like I'm suggesting you to connect to your wifi sources .

Otherwise you can use your phone data as well .

If you have done all the above mentioned things , then we are pretty much ready to go with .

The upgrade will prove you .

This particular window phone is currently at system software version Vida phone 8.1 .

Also I suggest you to get the latest update for your operating system .

For example , if your phone has Windows eight , go to settings update and check for updates and I think there is nothing more to warn you about .

So let's sim straight to the upgrade , go to the app store and download this app called Upgrade Awer .

If you haven't seen in the store , there will be a direct link in the video description that will get you straight into the app page .

So go ahead and install it once it's finished , you can open the app .

Now follow my instructions .

As you can see we have launch the app and the first thing you have to do here is to check if the Windows upgrade is available for your particular phone .

If your device fall under the model numbers , which I showed you earlier , then you don't have to worry because there will be an upgrade available for you for sure .

So click on next and it will do the Windows in upgrade availability .

Check out it will only take a few seconds and here we go as you can see , luckily , my phone is ready for this Windows upgrade .

You can see this green check mark and the upgrade available stage seems a very good sign to me .

If there is a windows build available for your device , you'll be also land on the same page .

Hope you all have an upgrade available .

So let's continue tick the box here which says enable windows 10 upgrade .

Now simply click on next .

Now we'll check for the updates that will also take a few seconds .

As you can see this phone is ready for the upgrade .

It's found the update files so you can touch them and the apple closes itself because it's already served in purpose .

Now , you need to go to the phone settings and navigate the phone update and here we go and you can see it's already started downloading the files for the upgrade because I already said automatically download updates .

If my data setting allow it .

If you didn't start yet , just start the updates , download manually and wait until it's finishes .

This update files may take a while to download in some cases .

But actually , it depends on your internet speed .

For comparison .

I'm using a 25 PPS connection to do this upgrade .

And if you have a great connection , you can grab updates faster .

Otherwise it will take longer to give you more light on this .

Let me tell you the Windows Mobile software is approximately near two gigs or let's say around 1.75 G BS .

As you can see , it's downloaded the updates and it started the preparation for installing the updates .

I think this will take a while .

So let's wait a little dance and here we go , it's just finished the preparation .

So touch on the install button and it will get here .

It is a service agreement form from Microsoft .

If you want to read , just scroll it down as you read or just click on accept to start the process instantly and your form will restart .

And you can see it's begin some upgrade and you can check the progress of the process by simply analyzing the process bar under the spinning gears .

Hope you all are connected to your phone to your puzzles .

Unless you have confidence for you battery live , it will reboot your phone several times while the process .

So don't get panicked and don't do anything stupid .

The whole upgrade thing is gonna take a long time .

So I suggest you to leave your phone alone another finishing .

Meanwhile , you can watch something or browse the web or do anything as you please .

For me , it's a to play something in the meanwhile .

So see you guys once it does have a great time .

Hey guys , I'm back and it seems you're almost done .

It says you're getting there and you can see it's migrating data to the new ones and getting things ready for you .

It will also take some time .

So have some patience .

Let's leave the device for a few more minutes and I think that's only how to wait until you enjoy your new Windows .

Phone 10 .

So see you once it does welcome back , we have just upgraded to the latest and greatest Windows 10 successfully .

And it took me 55 minutes without counting the update .

Download time , you can see the new user interface or the new look of your phone .

Of course , this comes with tons of new features and some refreshed all features as well .

I know you're excited to try it .

So I'm leaving that part to you , explore more and enjoy .
