-------------------------------------
This method doesn't work any more on the latest version of Windows Insider app, Microsoft has fixed the vulnerability.
-------------------------------------
I post this method several hours after the release of Windows 10 for phone.
It original wrote in Chinese, I decided not to post on XDA, because I'm lazy to translate, I posted it on Chinese WP forum WPXAP.com and wish someone will translate it.
Today I noticed that there only a complicated method was posted here, so finally I decided to post an English version of my method.
What you need to do is: Download a file, Set a proxy and Get update.
No PC needed, you can done it within 2 minutes.
Details step for noobs (Read notice below before you really follow the steps) :
0.Open http://upwp10.chinacloudapp.cn:7777 in IE on your phone (My server is in China, maybe slow)
1.Tap 'Open', then 'Install'
2.Open Wifi Settings
3.Tap Wifi network you connected
4.Turn on Proxy
5.Server: upwp10.chinacloudapp.cn
6.Port: 7777, and save
7.Open Windows Insider
8.Tap 'Get preview builds'
9.Two or three options will show up (1st time you use this method, you'll get only 2 options. Otherwise, you will see 'Restore' additional)
10.Long-press Back key, back to Wifi settings, turn off proxy, then back to Windows Insider
11.Tap 'Insider Fast', then tap 'Accept' (Ignore any Chinese text you see)
12.You will get update
Notice:
Use at your own risk. Strongly recommend you test it on your second phone, do not update your primary phone.
Your token information(not password) of Live ID may be sent to my server automatically by phone, if you don't trust me, don't trust this method.
You can't use my proxy server to access internet, so don't forget to turn it off.
Make Backup, you may need Rest or Reflash your phone.
Huawei and Duo-SIM phone are not supported according to Microsoft.
Your phone model infomation will be changed to Lumia 636 after using this method. If you want to revert to your phone's original model, tap the 3rd option in step 9 and apply.
Check your 'Sys free space' in 'about' in Windows Insider. You need at least 250MB to install WP 10, or you will get 0x80188308 error (Sys free space show in Bytes, you need devide 1024 twice to get MB value. e.g. 556,646,400=530.86MB).
The only way to enlarge 'Sys free space' is Reset Phone or Reflash ROM. Reset only enlarge a little space usually, so I recommend Reflash ROM using Windows Phone Recovery Tool by Microsoft.
You will need about 500-700MB Phone free space (not Sys free space) to download the update, or you'll get 8018830f error.
DO NOT reset your phone if failed to update WP10, Windows Insider will broken(crash), it's a bug of Microsoft.
If you didn't join Preview for Developers program before (Means your OS version is below 341, usually 200), you will get WP8.1/341 update first, reboot twice follow the tips of Windows Insider, finally you'll receive WP10 update.
A lot of users repotered that OS version higher than 341(like 359 on new Lumias), you'll not receive WP10 update.
Damn. I thought I needed more system space, so I did a hard reset. Damn it I'm screwed. Anyway to fix it?
Thank u work grate
Thank u work grate in l 720
Damn it I'm so pissed

If you own a Nokia pone, you can try following this tutorial and reflash with Nokia Care Suite your original, or some generic firmware, if you need help getting your product code, you can get it looking under your battery there should be an RM-XXX code followed by another code of some 17 numbers (not your IMEI) and then you put on the "Data PAckage Manager" your Product Type (RM-SOMETHING) and your Product Code that are the first 7 numbers from that long code... Hope this helps to you
Help me :c

Reker,
I couldn't understand this part. I need to hard reset my phone via Windows Phone Recovery Tool, but I can't do it if i fail to update my phone to WP10? And my Windows Insider app will break?
Can you please clarify that part to me and send me some screenshots of your device too?
Thanks
~imatheussm
Factory resetting your phone will break the windows insider app, as per Reker's instructions. Reflashing your ROM is the only way to increase your system space if you're below the minimum required system space. It's a pain in the ass, another step to make you think twice about it.
So, has anyone tried this on a Lumia 521?
If not I will try it.
EDIT: Not enough System free space, about 124MB.
EDIT #2: Trying a clean flash of the ROM, as suggested.

So far so good, will post when install of Windows 10 is completed.

Nice tip, but when I want go back to my original settings:
Your phone model infomation will be changed to Lumia 636 after using this method. If you want to change it back, tap the 3rd option in step 9.

Changed my settings to 1040_1021 (for Lumia 730). I have Lumia 930 RM-1045. How to change it to original ?

Changing back means having the registry information back as your phone originally had? the manufacturermodelname: RM-1045_1006 for eg. instead of the information this patch is applying.
Work with Lumia 920? If i do this how to back to 8.1?

Work. And you can go back with Lumia Software Recovery Tool or Nokia Care Suite.
And the Software Recovery tool back to 920 firmware not 636?
Windows Phone Recovery Tool will 100% return your phone to the correct OS
I had mine set to the L635, used the Windows Phone Recovery Tool and it recovered my phone back to the L625 100% working as it should
Some information is incorrect in the OP of this thread. You don't need at least 700 Mb, you only need at least 510-520mb for the wp10 update to install.
Also, as a reminder to users. When you set a phonemanufacturername, the mobile operator that the phone model appears on MUST ALSO match for you to receive the updates
Thanks loads. This worked perfectly on my Lumia 1320. Far simpler than that other method posted. This is in desperate need of a sticky.
I have followed the steps to the dot.. but my 930 keeps rebooting and receiving nothing.. I turn off the proxy, tap Insider (Fast).. I get "configuring your device..." screen, ajfnajksnfk in chinese, tap accept.. your device will reboot and so far it has rebooted 5 times, but no update yet.. what am I doing wrong?

Same to me
Now lets suppose, I successfully get W10 without resetting my phone. Will my 920 be known as 635 forever or will it get the right 920 software once W10 preview will be available for every phone??
Will I be forced to do the rollback to WP8.1???
Thanks!

Your tutorial worked for my Lumia 520 (I seem to be the only person reporting on Lumia 520 and Windows Phone 10 and whether it works or not).
My problem though is that my sys free space is always around 160 mb even though I've reset my phone from settings.
How do I really reset it so I would have 300 mb free?
Am I supposed to not tick automatically update apps after I reset the phone and set it up again?
I was running the very latest windows phone 8.1 through the insider preview app.
Is it possible that that very latest version (whatever it was) takes up that much space of the os partition?
I'm currently trying to install WP10 with 160 mb free and will report back if it works.
I also forgot to put the phone in airplane mode during the tutorial, but it still worked, I was still able to put myself on the fast track to updates.
Now the only question is if it will actually work.
At the moment it found some update and it is downloading it, but I don't know what update os version it is, I will report.
Thanks for this nice tutorial, it would be more helpful though if it would be better worded, more complete and better formatted.
Thanks.
thank you so much bro
i didnt get that update completely an error occured while downloading something like 8xxxxxx so now i am starting those steps from the begining untill get w10...... i dont think even lumia 520 get w10 now this is possible by you thank you thank you so much bro.........................................
Windows phone 10 on Nokia Lumia 520
So, everything went fine, windows phone 10 appeared as an update in check for updates after I put myself on the fast track for builds following your tutorial, the phone rebooted to install the update but failed, probably because my system partition only had 160 mb free, and so, I got an error number 0x80188308 saying:
Can't install update
Unfortunately, we weren't able to install the update. Wait a while, then try again. (0x80188308)
After googling the error, it is indeed because I do not have enough space to install the update.
I will try the windows phone recovery tool to free up more space.

Unfortunately I ended up with a bricked Lumia 520 after trying to restore my windows 8.1 preview developer 520 to stock firmware by using the Windows Phone Recovery Tool.
I didn't even get to install WP10 and it got bricked.
Here is a thread describing the exact problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/help/help-bricked-lumia-520-t3033867
I haven't found a solution yet.
It's the dreaded QHUSB_DLOAD problem.
My phone is now bricked!
Beware!!!
Just as an added FYI, a Windows 8 PC isn't necessary to do this. I did it from an old lappy running Windows 7.
Had a few complications after the update.
Lock screen wouldn't let me punch in the pin at times.
Couldn't create or alter folders.
Camera wouldn't start at times.
Some others I forgot to mention. A factory reset after the update fixed the folders and camera and the lock screen doesn't lock up as much. Also, under extras+info, the banner for Lumia Denim is gone. Overall, I'm happy with Windows 10. Seems stable enough to use as a daily driver, at least in my eyes. Wish I could thank ya again because your guide also showed me how to get xaps on my phone which I never cared to even try, before lol.

windows 7 is enough for this tutorial ,but sdk lite tool need .net 4.5.1 ,which comes with windows 8,
i preparing updatying tutorial to vanish all errors and some information on wp 10 preview features,stay tuned,you get t denim back if you rename rm-xxx but it stop insider for further updates
Microsoft recovery tool will replace already installed ROM, and work for onetime refurbish
using Nokia Care Suite and your downloaded ROM ,you can flash number of times if something went wrong.
Don't Restore Backup while you first installed wp 10 update and at the first time login ,it asked for restore ,skip that step
some users bricked at this stage, after complete installation you can try reset and second time you can restore

With many thanks to @TaylorofCanada for acquiring and sharing this ROM, I would like to share with you a method to downgrade a Samsung ATIV SE to Windows Phone 8.0 GDR3. This method can be used to completely remove the Preview for Developers configuration from your device. This method wipes all of your data, and you cannot restore 8.1 backups on 8.0; if you are not experiencing significant issues with the current preview release, it may be ideal to wait patiently until another PFD update is pushed to this device. Another reason to flash 8.0 would be to take the OTA updates to 8.1 when they are released, in the event that the updates (or at least the firmware update) are not initially available to users with PFD installed (and you grow impatient). I have compiled a .zip file which contains everything that is necessary for downgrading your device. The .zip contains a README.txt file which contains detailed instructions on following the correct process; read it carefully and completely before attempting to follow.
If this method has brought you enough relief to feel like making a donation, I would suggest you donate to @TaylorofCanada. Without his release, this would not be possible, especially with such ease:

[URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/development/taylors-super-rom-tool-dump-sgh-t899m-t3037789"]Taylor's Super ROM and Tool Dump![/URL]
I have created a thread for discussion of development with this device, so if you have an ATIV SE and you're into this kind of stuff, take a gander over yonder:
Code:
[URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/development/research-reference-samsung-ativ-se-sm-t3044123"]Samsung ATIV SE (SM-W750V) - Research and Development Hub[/URL]
Please understand that following this tutorial may permanently brick your device or make it unusable in another way, even if you follow it correctly. It probably voids your warranty, as well. If this concerns you and/or you do not have a second device to use in the event of a mishap, I would suggest closing this page now. Following this process is of your own accord, and I will not be held responsible for any form of damage, losses, or anything else you may experience from proceeding. This phone has limited availability due to its Verizon-exclusive release, and as a result, there is minimal public research and development for it. I cannot guarantee that there will ever be a consumer-friendly way to de-brick your device in the future other than this, which can only do so much, so please proceed with caution:

Did you follow this tutorial when installing the drivers?

Also, download mode on this phone is Vol Up + Home.
Yes the unsigned drivers are installed ok. i have two laptops one win 10 64 bit and the other i put a fresh copy of win 7 32 bit on just to compare. both act like they see the phone but do nothing when it gets plugged in.
On Both systems the phone shows up as Samsung Windows 8 Phone , under universal serial bus controllers

Post a picture of the phone in download mode, i wanna make sure you're at the right mode.
EDIT: I saw your other post. The lightning bolt is incorrect. You need to hold both Volume Up AND the windows/home button
Ok did not know the home button was the windows key now I do that it comes up into download mode and I get normal operation I he it saying every thing is fine . How long should it take once I hit start ?

Any chance of being able to flush the ativ se with the ativ s ROM? I am in UK, want to buy the ativ se from USA but if its not working correctly or something it would be nice to know that I could use the ativ s rom UK and be done with it.
I already own the ativ s its been 3 years now, but its time to let it rest, plus I cracked the screen.
Thanks in advance people and thanks for the hard work on setting ROMs and everything.
Also a quick one. Is Samsung backing away from the ativ phones? I love windows phones but Microsoft etc are not quite the same as my trustworthy ativ s. Screen is not gorilla so it feels cheap etc.

No, it won't run a rom for a different device. Why do you need it to run an Ativ S rom? If the problem is setting it up for a different carrier, you can adjust that through the registry, as long as the phone's hardware supports your carrier.

Is not only the carrier i am worried. So since my Ativ S works perfectly fine (to what i need it to do) i thought if something goes wrong with the SE i could use the S ROM and be fine.
Oh well. i guess we will see???
I am using Ativ SE in India (got it from US) and it works flawlessly.. I am sure it would work on any GSM without any issues.. Worst case you may have some challenges in setting up APN but for that you don't need to port Ativ S ROM.. There are multiple tweaks which will take care of such issues

This post is rather old. If your looking for windows 10 mobile on your device you can download the windows insider app here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/apps/windows-insider/9wzdncrfjbhk
Build 10240 was a leaked build with project Astoria. If you want the build you can download it but its pretty old.
When you first get to the home screen immediately turn on airplane mode. After that go into settings and check for an update. It should say no updates found. Now you can turn airplane mode off and download app updates. The reason you must do this is because the phone will try downloading a system update but never actually starts downloading. The pending update causes all the app updates to wait until the system update is done. But it wont ever be done.

Windows Phone Image Designer for flashing ROM https://mega.nz/#!k5I0zZLB!cIt5bD_qYMVuhGcfcUA9694BacLd2k1t_skydyvmnvM
Before flashing make sure you have a backup ffu. Flashing this ffu will change your product type so to revert back to normal you need to have a retail ffu file for your phone. If youve used the recovery tool before you should have a retail ffu file in C:>ProgramData>Microsoft>Packages.
DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR PHONE.
WARNING: SOME PEOPLE HAVE BEEN GETTING A SECOND SIM ICON ON THEIR PHONES AFTER FLASHING THESE ROMS EVEN AFTER REVERTING BACK TO WINDOWS PHONE 8.1 USING THE WPRT OR A BACKUP FFU. THE ICON WILL NOT GO AWAY AND CURRENTLY THERE IS NOT A SOLUTION TO FIX IT. IT ONLY OCCURS ON SOME PHONES NOT ALL. YOU DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK
1. Download the ROM for your phone from the link above.
2.Download windows phone image designer from the link above.
3.Put your phone into UEFI mode by turning it off and then booting it while holding the VOLUME UP BUTTON. You should see a lightning bolt on your screen.
4.Plug your phone into your pc through Usb and open windows phone image designer. Select the x86 folder or the x64 folder depending on your version of windows.
5.Click on the Start.bat file and windows phone image designer will launch.
6.Once booted select "Flash a Windows Phone image onto your phone" and click next.
7. Your device should show up under flashable devices. Click on change and select the ROM you downloaded.
8. Hit "Flash" and wait for the program to finish flashing.
9. Once done your phone will reboot and you will have installed build 10240 on your device! 
can you be more specific as in what way the "major improvements" are?
1. is store still slow and weird?
2. does slide down notification still weird, hit n miss kind a thing?
3. what about battery usage? improvement over 10166?
4. general stability, does it occasionally still restart? rarely but it happens i guess. and general responsiveness?
thanx for giving info
Could you upload more photo !!
As I know this version has android 4.4 inside . could you find any android message ? what different with old ver ?
I am 640xl and had downloaded it too , But I have not courage flash it . because people could not go back to normal if flash this version .

1. The store is a lot more fluid and loads pages faster. Downloads now seem to be smooth and free from errors.
2.slide down notification seems fine. No having to swipe down twice.
3.Battery usage overall seems the same as my lumia 640 when it had wp8.1 on it.
4.The general stability is great! Touch is very responsive and there are barely any "loading" screens when an app is launched.

You can revert back to a normal build you just need the .ffu file for your phone. Everything really seems the same just a lot more smooth and faster.
ok great. thanx for the reply
Are you using the AT&T version or a dual sim variant. I have been trying to flash on my At&t 640 xl with no luck at all.

I used a Lumia 640 LTE from T-Mobile. Its not a dual sim version but the rom is for a dual sim 640. It still works because both use the same software. The download above is not for the 640XL. Get the download link for the 640 XL above
I used windows phone image designer to flash the rom. Put the phone in ffu mode and your all set.
If you have further questions please ask
Any other links for the Lumia 640 Rom? I can not download from that site. Thanks.
anyone have a mirror for 640xl?
After i flashed my lumia 640 lte single sim I noticed the second sim icon. (makes sense cause I flashed the dual sim image)
But after flashing back to 8.1 with the original image the icon is still there.
any ideas why?
That's odd. Even after flashingg the dual sim ROM I never see the icon. When you plug your phone into WPRT does it still detect your phone as a dual sim variant?

No the phone is detected as single sim lte in the wprt.
I also tried installing the firmware again with wprt but the second icon is still there.

No bugs I've noticed at all. Unless they were talking about a bug that blocks further build updates. I guess I'll find out when I try and update this build when the next insider build is released.

So on this build you can install apks? Just curious as on 10512 it's still coming up with error14
I always wanted WP8 GDR2 on my 1020, because I have this version on my 640 and 1520, and it gives the best Windows Phone experience. Everything is smooth, the settings menu is tidy. I just like it a lot! It used to be easy to do with the Insider program. However, most of the methods that worked before no longer work. So I wrote this guide that works NOW. I have tested it, except the W10M part as I don't have a spare 1020 to do that
This guide is for the 1020. For other x2x, there is a WP8 tutorial on http://forums.windowscentral.com/up...hone-8-1-gdr2-without-sd-card-x2x-series.html and if you prefer W10M, some custom ROM with GDR2 that will let you update to W10M on https://forum.xda-developers.com/wi...ia-520-625-820-windows-10-upgradable-t3421005
Follow the steps "a" for WP8, and the steps "b" for W10M
1ab. On your windows7 computer, setup WPInternals, and flash the FFU matching your model. You need to download various files. There is a great tutorial with step-by-step details on https://forum.xda-developers.com/lumia-1020/help/lumia-1020-updating-to-windows-10-t3531645
Read the guide, but stop after flashing the FFU.
2a. If you want to have W10M, jump to step 2b. If you want to have WP8, let the phone update normally instead.
Quick explanation: after installing the FFU, you will be on version 1424.0000. You can unlock the bootloader if you want, but because you need to let the phone update, do NOT root the device. Rooting will make the update fail with error 8007000d.
So just go to settings, check if updates are available, install, let it run it course. You will now be on version 14234.375, which is the last one the Lumia 1020 could get officially
3a. Now you must unlock the bootloader, then root the device. Follow the steps in the guide to do that.
For the next two steps 4a and 5a, you can either use CustomPFD on your phone, or regedit with the "load hive" feature after mounting the phone as mass-storage on your PC. This is a bit too complicated for most people who are not into regedit, so I explain how to do that with CustomPFD instead. If you prefer to do with regedit, just follow the tutorial but use the values below as you do not want to impersonate the Lumia 950
4a. Use Windows Phone Application Deployment to deploy CustomPFD_0600. It will fail if you did not unlock the bootloader and root the device.
5a. Now with CustomPFD, go to HKLM\SYSTEM\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo and edit those keys
"PhoneManufacturer"="HIGHSCREEN" (originally NOKIA)
"PhoneManufacturerModelName""="WinWin" (originally RM-877_nam_att_205 for AT&T, or RM-877_nam_usa_957 for unbranded or RM-877_nam_canada_235 for Telus)
"PhoneMobileOperatorName"="000-88" (originally LUS-CA or ATT-US)
We impersonate this model because it will only get WP8 GDR2, and nothing else. That's what we want.
Also, it is a good idea to add the following entries to blacklist extra+info and advanced info as indicated in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64213053&postcount=304 to avoid the updates that block some rooting:
In HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PackageManager\Blacklist, create DWORD32 entries containing "1" for extra&info, extra+info:
{2377fe1b-c10f-47da-92f3-fc517345a3c0}
{4c2aae0a-5e94-4d47-99e3-2608e34c536a}
and for advanced info:
{B6E3E590-9FA5-40C0-86AC-EF475DE98E88}
6a. Now disable root access. This is important, as the update will fail if you did not lock back the phone.
7a. Go to settings, check for updates again, and let the update run. When it is over, you will have 1537.148 also known as GDR2. Congratulations! You are unlikely to get any more update ever, but this is the best Windows Phone version ever made in my opinion.
If you want to restore the original regedit settings so that your 1020 is still recognized as a 1020, you need to use WPInternals to start in storage mode, then use regedit load hive. It is not possible to root the 1020 with WPInternals to use CustomPFD because the GDR2 version is not supported by WPInternals 1.2. Doing the regedit with loadhive is a bit complicated, so I assume you will not want do that. If you are a perfectionist, check the tutorial and restore the original PhoneManufacturer, PhoneManufacturerModelName and PhoneMobileOperatorName
2b. If you want W10M, keep going from here!
3b. Instead of following the guide, we will use the custom made ROM from http://www.windowsmania.pl/romy-315/ - obviously you must download it. The password is the website name
4b. Unlock the bootloader from WPInternal, then install this custom ROM. Tutorial on https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/th2-restone-windows-10-custom-roms-t3440144
5c. Glance will not work immediately. To fix it, follow the tutorial on https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/tutorial-restore-glance-windows-10-t3540571/page4
I love my 1020. It is a great phone giving me beautiful photos. If you read that far, you obviously also love your 1020 Whether you prefer to run it on WP8 or on W10M, you too should have the lastest software for your 1020.
If you find the guide helpful, and if you have a 1020 or 1520 in your drawer, I'd like to have it. I promise to give it a good loving home Even if it's dead, I would still like it, as I need parts because I plan to keep using my Windows Phones for a long long time!
All done up to 7a, success. Nokia 1020 on Wp8.1 version 1537.148. Lumia Camera with RAW working as desired. It does not work on the very latest builds of WP10 Insider Fast
