I'm die heart fan of windows phone specially 950xl device, but unfortunately Microsoft has decided to stop support this platform.

As Microsoft is going to drop support for window 10 mobile as off December 10, 2019, lots of applications will also drop a support for same specially whatsapp. So I recommend that Microsoft should officially release Android rom for lumia devices (mine is 950xl) so that at least windows users can migrate to android easily without  purchasing new android device ("Reusing hardware").

Or is there any way to install android (may be unofficial support) on lumia 950xl so that I can migrate from windows to android after December 10, 2019.

    I've Hotmail since it started. I've used Windows Live Mail since they started it.  I have a Gmail account and access it using Windows Live Mail, but I rarely use it because I like Hotmail better.  Microsoft tried to stop everyone from using WLM, because they wanted users to store their emails online so they could charge monthly fees.  I worked around their roadblocks.  

    I purchased my Nokia 950XL about 2 years ago.  I will use it until I can't work around.  I have all of the features I want.  I had an android and I don't want another because it didn't have any features that I wanted. I don't want an android phone and will never have an iPhone.  I believe that Microsoft owes it to their customers to support Windows Phones for the life of the phones.  Most people don't realize how good the Windows phone system is because they never used one.  I am hoping Microsoft will resume support for Windows Phone before they have to file bankruptcy because all of their customers left them.

    Is your email like a hotmail or live account? If so, you're ok. I have one left myself and I use the gmail app on my Android phone to send and receive. You could download the outlook app if you wanted, but its not very good. 

    As far as Windows 10 mobile goes, its dead. Don't fret about it. just move on to Android or Apple. You'll have the apps that Windows never had.

    You  are right,  but I did not think, that it will happen on a worldwide basis. I have resignated and bought a good Android Phone instead. I was very fond of my Windows Phone and has just bought a new one before the message of withdrawal of Windows 10 Mobile.

    If Microsoft loses their millions of supporters by putting money ahead of trying to make them happy, that decision could cost them much more when their top position in the computer market is lost when their supporters move to support another company.
