    Look in the Beta OS threads, and download 10.2.1.1925. It's running great on my Q10.

    Yes I just did it last night and everything is working well. I did a wipe first so it took an hour or so. One thing I won't do again is a restore or at least not a full one. I did it because I wanted my word subs and my password keeper back. Will have to find a better way to safe that stuff.

    You have to have link installed on your PC so it will connect properly with your Q, but don't bother using it to back up - I've never had good luck with that. Don't have Link open when you do the install either, because it won't work. Download the Q file I linked above, plug in your phone, double click the downloaded .exe file, and wait. Then go through the initial set-up, do a security wipe, and then start in BBWorld and redownload your apps, add your email accounts, etc.

    If you have stuff saved on your SD card, copy it to your PC first and add it back after installing the OS. If you don't have a gmail or outlook.com or similar email that stores your contacts, use a 3rd party app to back 'em up before you do this. Contactx is a good one from what I've heard. Good luck.

    And if you still have the Z10 that's not working, try downloading the new OS for that and reinstalling.

    you can backup your password keeper to your media card and restore once you have installed your software

    I see that now, not sure what happened. Regardless, yes, from the thread, just make sure its the Q5/10 one.

    Is there a difference between different models of Q10's? Is there a clear step by step instruction for what to do posted somewhere on Crackberry?

    I've never had trouble with Link, I always backup and restore Settings and Media. Also everything on my SD card is always fine after installing a leak.

    I'm same way but I will only restore settings next time to test it. I really only want to safe word sub and settings.

    Also doing a wipe after os install would not be useful.

    You don't need to copy your SD files in your PC. Just remove the SD, install the leak and then insert the SD again

    People more knowledgeable than I have said it removes any fragments of the previous OS' files that didn't get overwritten when the new OS was installed.
