Hi well the update on the wdr only has the last update not the new firmware update that we wanted to see and use If you do "do the flash" you will lose all your data and everything else you have on your phone I recommend to backup your phone before doing this if your in the insider preview program you have to download the app and re download the os I also recommend to do a factory rest after the the new preview update

Yes, it down grade from insider to preview. If you current backup you will be able to get back most of your settings. I don't remember having to reload any of my data. Just had to run updates to get to os level I wanted. That's not the right thing to say, In the release notes you find this: REMINDER: We have changed the backup format for Windows 10 Mobile devices to reduce the size of the backup stored in OneDrive. As a result, if you do a backup on a device running the latest Windows 10 Mobile Insider Preview builds and move back to the released version of Windows 10 Mobile (Build 10586) and restore from your backup – your Start screen layout won’t restore and remain the default Start layout. Your previous backup also gets overwritten. If you need to go back to Build 10586 temporarily, once you are on Build 10586 you should disable backup so it doesn’t overwrite the good backup from Windows 10 Mobile Insider Preview builds.

Yes, it down grade from insider to preview. If you current backup you will be able to get back most of your settings. I don't remember having to reload any of my data. Just had to run updates to get to os level I wanted.

Did the WDR downgrade your OS or left it as it way on your device? Did it only upgrade your Firmware? I presume you had to reload all your data?

Haha but slow on Android is not getting an update after a year! (And then the manufacturer saying they're not supporting your too old device anymore, you'll have to stay on 4.0) This one just may take a week or two to get round to all the phones. Maybe they do them in batches based on the serial number?
