Hey folks, We are starting to rollout a new firmware update today for Lumia 950 / 950 XL : 01078.00053.16236.35xxx . Key improvements in this release include: Wi-Fi connectivity improvements, including fixes for Wi-Fi connection dropping randomly and Wi-Fi scan occasionally not returning any results. Support for double tap to wake enabled. Bluetooth connectivity improvements. Stability and reliability improvements. Camera improvements, including improved image and video quality, improved Auto-focus and fix for a problem that was causing slow motion capture to skip frames for some users. Cellular connectivity improvements, including fix for a problem that caused occasional network loss for some users. Audio quality improvements, including fix for a problem that caused voice call audio to get scrambled for some users. The availability of the update may depend on your phone model, region or network service provider. Starting today, the update should become available for the first batch of phones and the remaining ones are expected to receive the update gradually. Windows 10 is updating continuously, so make sure you follow all the update notifications that appear on your phone. To check for updates, you can also tap Settings > Update & security > Phone update > Check for updates . For more detailed update instructions and troubleshooting, see .

I can understand being shy to flash such a splendid phone. I keep telling myself I will flash with the Belgian ROM(i think it's the VAR EURO A2 CV) but what if i failed and i bricked it? what about the Google fiasco? What happened? I don't like any of the other OS either. I liked windowphone 8 but i love windows 10 mobile. It's a fine OS and it is kind of cool not to have the same phone as everybody ^^.I hope our new firmware comes next week. They sent it for other 950 and 950 xl single sim phones yesterday and thursday so they didn't forget the last phones yet. Let us keep our fingers crossed!

Still have not received the new firmware including double tap for my Lumia 950 XL single sim bought in France unlocked: 000-FR (RM-1085 VAR EURO A1 CV BLACK, Product Code 059X4T8). Microsoft, what's wrong. Will this firmware finally be released for my phone ? Thanks in advance for answering. A french customer. Have you tried the WDRT? It did show me the firmware and os upd.

Don't despair - it will eventually come through. Remember, your carrier has to approve it first as it is customised to their settings.

Hi! Does it still have to approve if the phone has been bought unlocked?

Not sure about that though maybe because your phone is now in specific region with specific Carrier . I'm in the same boat. Mine fortunately came thru couple of days ago.
