Hi All {Long Shot},

 

Probably one of the last standing users of a Windows Phone, but hopefully there is still someone out there that could provide or advise an answer - Microsoft recently released an update {Creators}, it is appearing on many phone throughout the world {Mostly unlocked phones}, does anyone know when is will be released on 02 in the UK.

 

Many Thanks

No need to flash etc. Register for the slow ring insider preview. The app should already be on your phone, in the settings page. Once registered, you by pass the O2 release cycle and get updates direct from MS
Current Phone: Sony Xperia XZ Premium

As o2 aren't supporting windows anymore who knows?
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

@bjmac1 might be work looking at flashing the firmware to the generic microsoft offering rather than O2, then you won't have to wait for the network to release the update.

Although initially MS did design the updates to be like Apple and not require the networks to release it. Not sure if this is still the case, but it may be worth being aware that MS have stated that the rollout for the creators update will be very gradual even for PC's so might be a similar story for phones.

From wikipedia: The Windows Insider program by Microsoft allows users who own a valid Windows 10 license o sign up for early builds of the operating system Jaw-dropping
