Can I upgrade to Windows 10 on my phone? Which Lumias are compatible
Before you follow the below guide to installing Windows 10 on your phone, only selected devices are supported at the moment. You can get Windows 10 on your phone now if you have a Lumia 630, 635, 636, 638, 730 or 830. See also: Not all Lumia smartphones will get an upgrade to Windows 10.
It sounds strange to leave out high-end devices like the Lumia 930, 1320 and 1520 but Microsoft says a future feature called 'partition stitching' is needed. Until then, there isn't enough space on the OS partition for the update.
Microsoft said: "Note that this doesn’t mean that Windows 10 will take more disk space than Windows Phone 8.1, it’s just a function of the upgrade process at this point. Once the partition stitching feature is completed, many more devices will be supported."
How to install Windows 10 Technical Preview on your phone
Step One
Head to the Store on your Windows Phone device and download the Windows Insider app.

Step Three
You'll need to enroll on the Windows Insider programme to get preview builds of the software and you have two options, Insider Slow or Insider Fast.
Fast will mean you get updates quicker but they have the potential to be more buggy and crash. Meanwhile, the slow option will involve you waiting longer but receiving a more stable build. Microsoft has a list of known issues on the blog post which we linked to at the top of the article.
Select the one you prefer and hit the arrow button at the bottom of the screen.

Step Four
Before you can install Windows 10 on your phone you have to accept the terms and conditions of the Insider Programme. Most importantly it could void your warranty and as we mentioned it could be buggy making your device unusable in some ways.
We don't advice installing it on your main phone. If the device is your main phone and you really want to install Windows 10, opt for the Slow Insider option to ensure a more stable build.

Step Five
Once you've accepted the terms, simply head to the 'phone update' section of the system settings and hit the 'check for updates' button.

Step Six
Once the update has downloaded and installed, your phone will reboot and migrate some data. You'll then be given a 'success' message but you're not quite done. As it says, you can leave the phone plugged into the mains and let it do the rest or head to the Insider app to finish the upgrade.
