Hi, yes I had read this post and downloaded the attachments at the end - but no success in getting them to work as instructed. At the beginning of your post you mention 'dormant hackers Team new app - is that one of the attachments? Or should I look elsewhere?

So does anyone have the Creator's Update builds coming through on 512 MB phones yet with this? I've been testing with a Lumia 625, I have got the option to opt into the Insider Preview to become available after changing the registry to Lumia 636 (which looks to be what the 512 MB patch in DHT does), but it still reports no updates are available. I assume Insider is the only way as the Lumia 636 isn't officially supported for the Creator's Update (it downloaded the latest Anniversary Update build fine with that targeting info).

I have had 15063.297 running on a 512 MB phone by using the offline installation method (iutool.exe) but Microsoft have stopped posting newer Creator's Update builds to the Microsoft Update Catalogue for some reason (the other branches are still being posted each month), hence investigating alternatives.
 
Can You Please Provide Me The Complete Offline Package of build 15063.297

Upgrading Lumia Icon (929) to 1709

Just wanted to say thank you. After screwing around with Interop Tools and trying to manually update the registry info to a 950XL, I found this post. I downloaded the tool and the dependencies. Uploaded and installed fine. Downloaded MS Upgrade Advisor, but didn't seem to install. Checked updates and it was already downloading Insider Preview 15254.1. It's now doing the prepare.

Although I have a 950XL for my OldGuyGeek demos, my daily phone is a Lumia Icon (929). Using the Insider program, I got it to the 2017-09 1703 Update but that was to be its final resting place.

I fully expect it to finish the install just fine and I will take it off of updates. Or maybe I'll leave it and see if it will continue in the Insider Program. In any case, thanks for the instructions and tools.

Hi everyone and thanks for sending feedback and keeping me up to date with the app bugs and issues .
This app will no longer supported but don't be worry . I integrate it into new version of DHTPersonalization you can find it here :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74721954&postcount=42
It's the first version with this integration so if this post not updated please check first post of DHTPersonalization thread to see if there's new release or no.
At current version it doesn't support DHTUpgrade Advisor backup option so I will try to implement it in the next release of DHT Personalization and completely move this app to our personalization app .
Again Thanks from all
Best Regards
Ali

It's says "We couldn’t install updates because there’s a problem with the date and time information on your device. Make sure that your date, time and time zone settings are correct and we’ll try again later."

Does backup my phone really make a backup of my information ?
Actually NO . It only backup : HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo and only the keys this app change them .

How to use :

-Information of your devices will shown up in application

-Now you can use Windows Insider to choose your Insider Ring and upgrade your phone .
-Better to Restore backup of your device after upgrade .
if the above instruction didn't worked
-download and install latest version of interop tools app http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...interop-tools-appx-windows-10-mobile-t3373675
-Go to Interop unlock section and try to Restore NDTKSVC (Attention : Restore NDTKSVC Not that one ends with (x50))
-then reboot your device and try to Interop/cap unlock your device again from Interop Tools app ->Interop Unlock section
if the above instruction didn't worked again FINAL WAR:

4.2- in settings> sytem> about. check your device info, in case appears the original targetting info restart your device normally.

This is a open source project, so feel free to change it by your own .
What this app contains for starter developers ?
This source code is a real simple code to see how SplitView , RelativePanel , VisualStateManager works , but it's really basic and easy to understood .

Test for 512 MB devices :
guys with 512MB of devices test this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3844546&d=1471383596
first check Backup , Then Tap on Allow Update(for 512MB Ram)
Thanks all guys who find trick for 512 devices and I will add their names soon in thread .

What are the files uploaded ?
DHTUpgradeAdvisor_1.1.4.0_arm_Debug.rar : it contains the appx file and you must be able to deploy it with Developer Mode enabled via file manager .
Dependencies.zip: this contains ARM dependency packages needed for app . (if you weren't able to deploy this app using file manager use device portal to deploy using appx file and these dependencies .
Source.rar : surely it's the source code of my app .
Technical Information about source :
Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 , Universal Windows SDK 10586 (v1.4)

    How did you do that ? using upgrade advisor app ?
    Yep, uninstall Extras&Info from storage manager and if you're insider, un-enroll your device and stay on production-TH2, Then use DHTUpgradeAdvisor, backup your DeviceTargetingInfo and hit the button "allow update".

    Install upgrade advisor from store and check for update via upadv. Wait a few hours and make somes reboots, then check for update via settings app.

    Done.
