Microsoft has released a fresh new Windows 10 Mobile Preview (Build 10549) for Windows Insiders on Fast Ring. This build includes improvements related to Cortana, Messaging, emojis and more.
What is New:
Improvements to Cortana: Cortana now works for Insiders in Japan and in English for Insiders in Australia and Canada.
Messaging app improvements: The Messaging app now has a text box that can be expanded as you enter text. Previously, the text box had 2-3 lines which made it really hard to see what you were typing. As I mentioned yesterday with Build 10565 for PC, an upcoming build for mobile will include the integrated Skype capabilities for you to preview.
Diverse emoji: With this build, we are adding support for Unicode’s diversity emoji’s. Consistent with Unicode’s vision, we’re excited to offer people all over the world with emoji that reflect more human diversity. We added this capability to the PC with Build 10547 and now we’re extending to mobile. Check out our new diverse emoji and let us know what you think.
You can upgrade to Windows 10 Mobile Build 10549 from Windows Phone 8.1 only
Microsoft stated:
We discovered a bug late last night that caused phones upgrading from Build 10536 to get stuck at a black screen after this new build is installed. Rather than making you wait a little bit longer for us to fix this bug – we decided to release this build as a single update from Windows Phone 8.1.
@DeanosT01 We won't be fixing this build and revving it, we'll look to fix in future build and flight that one. Expect at least a week out.— Gabriel Aul (@GabeAul) October 14, 2015
