No worries.. I used the following
PhoneManufacturerModelName = RM-1089_1087
Phone Operator Name = 000-DE
Phone Model Name = Lumia 735

I found this model to be closest to 1320 in terms of internal hardware specs and the build is far more stable.

Thank you, it worked perfectly!!

Hi, can you please write how did you get WP 10 from 8.1? I have L 1320 and I have tried everything, but nothing is working. I have stucked with CustnomWPSystem, because no MixRadio app after hard reset of flash 8.1 ROM, replaceing Extras + info app with vcREG or customPDF was unsuccessful, replaceing Preview for Developers app was successful, but replaced apps doesnt work....

Can you please write down how you did it?

Can you please write down how you did it?

I did the following:
1. Restored to 8.1 with WDRT (Windows Device Recovery Tool)
2. Disable automatic app updates from Store (to prevent extras+info from updating)
3. Unlocked bootloader using WPInternals
4. Unlocked phone using Developer Phone Registration
5. Deployed custom pfd xap
6. copied mixradio vcgreg bootstrap to sd card root folder (mixradio is available if you recover using WDRT), or else you can stick to extras+info bootstrap
7. Executed CustomPFD to deploy vcreg via the mixradio bootstrap
8. Once vcreg was installed, go to settings do Interop Unlock
9. Change the registry settings to have the phone as Lumia 735 (check my post above)
10. Install Windows Upgrade Advisor and execute it
11. It will detect the phone as 735 and schedule updates
12. Go to updates and install update (The first update will take you to windows 10 build 10586 (TH1).
13. Check for updates again (you will get an update for the Anniversary Update)

Recommended to install the Anniversary Update. It has been by far the most stable version for 1320 (for me atleast).

Let me know if you have any other issues.

Thank you very much, but I have not been succesful.

llucas_br: I tried it many times but it does not work for me. I am stuck at 9) because i am unable to replace the app. It seems to be installed not on SD card. I tried Insider preview instead and no luck.

shahidkazi: Well, I stucked on 5). Do you really mean custom pfd or it shoudl be customWP? If custopWP I have the same problem as mentioned...

And after WDRT I do not have Mixradio app :/ (iam using this firmware: RM994_3058.50000.1424.0003_RETAIL_eu_hungary_1156_03_445314_prd_signed.ffu)

I am guessing the file image for the model from hungary does not have mixradio. You may want to look for the extras + info bootstrap. maybe @emanuelMode can post the xap here for you to try bootstrapping with it instead

Adn yes you were right, i meant custom wp system (which is used to apply the bootstrap)

custom pfd is a registry editor which i generally use to edit registry after doing the interop unlock via vcreg. It makes it easier to edit the registry values.

Were you able to unlock boot loader using WP internals?

Try deploy this xap

Thank you very much, but I have not been succesful.

Extract, and deploy.
Good luck

Hi,

shahidkazi: that did not work....

llucas_br: I was unable to deploy because lack of interpol unlock...

So I downloaded Indian firmware with Mixradio (RM994_3058.50000.1424.0_RETAIL_im_india_906_03_482446_prd_signed), flashed and it all work Now I am updating 8.1 to be able to update to 10

Thank you very much

Great. Enjoy

Additional Tip:
After upgrading to Windows 10, the phone will still remain as Lumia 735 or any other model that you spoof it to with the registry hack. Keep it the same to get future updates.

In case you have to reset your phone for some reason, it will go back to being Lumia 1320, in that case, simple deploy VCReg 1.5 for Windows 10 using app deploy, interop unlock and change it back to Lumia 735.

I may be wrong or just superstitious but keeping it as Lumia 735 and not 1320, the freezing issue is less frequent.

install windows upgrade
windows upgrade messaged "Ready to upgrade, Go to Phone update..."

It could be some registry setting wrong or you may have Extras + Info installed.
I have created a complete step by step walkthrough with screenshots, you can check what you may have missed.

If I get W10 TH2 on my Lumia 1320, and reset the phone, did it automatically changes the register to show it is a 1320 again? And only receive the last TH2 to the Lumia 1320? Sorry 4 my english Thank you
