Introduction

W10ARM-Desktop

This is a guide to install Windows 10 ARM desktop on your Lumia phones. Before continuing, please read all of the sections below:

Disclaimer

* I'm not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
  thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed (like it did for me...).
* YOU are choosing to make these modifications,
  and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
* Your warranty will be void if you tamper with any part of your device / software.

Devices supported by this guide

  • Nokia Lumia 930
  • Nokia Lumia Icon (929)
  • Nokia Lumia 1520
  • Nokia Lumia 830 Global
  • Microsoft Lumia 950 (Not recommended)
  • Microsoft Lumia 950 XL (Not recommended)

More things to note

  • Microsoft have no support for this. All of the material here is discovered and maintained by the community. So, expect a lot of things to break.
  • What I'm referring as Windows 10 ARM is not official Windows on ARM (WOA). This is a leaked build of Windows, built for the 32-bit ARM architecture (not ARM64). It is built but not published by Microsoft.

External links

  • For Lumia 950 & XL, it's recommended for you to install Lumia WOA instead. It is based on official Windows on ARM and has way more support & functionalities.
  • If you have any trouble, head to the Lumia on AArch32 group.
  • Support for more devices is in the above group.
