Good to know, William. I've been thinking about going the WDRT route but have to wonder if we're just a few days away from an OTA appearance. That being said, I hope this isn't delayed to coincide with the W10 Anniversary update. :/

My firmware update came through OTA. Phone and double working seamlessly. My son's 830 & 640 both have double tap, but have two additional features that my high-end Lumia 950 unfortunately does not have: Place phone face down to silence and SMS Chat - Pity.

Installed the latest firmware via WDRT in the US. After wards restored data, messages, phone history and apps. Reentered Windows Insider and installed latest update. All working as expected, double tap to wake, Bluetooth, camera and Edge is smooth as glass. Definitely a premium device now.

Just checked WDRT moments ago - lo and behold! ![](http://fud.community.services.support.microsoft.com/Fud/FileDownloadHandler.ashx?fid=ed1067ad-5e52-423f-89b6-6e470b80b9a0) Getting closer to OTA I hope!

Thanks, I think you were the one who posted this URL at one point, which I've been checking like crazy the last few days. Not sure if it means anything, but I'm going to check WDRT as well to satisfy my curiosity (not that I'd go that route, mind you). Take care!
