Windows 10 Mobile build 15252 is now in the Slow ring

Microsoft has released Windows 10 Mobile Insider Preview build 15252 to the Slow ring. The build replaces 15245, which was released on September 14.

The information comes by way of Dona Sarkar via Twitter and has also been posted to the Windows Blog. The build will bring improvements that Fast ring users have been enjoying for about a week. If you missed that report, you can always check down below for the list of improvements and fixes.

  • This build includes all the improvements from KB4038788.
  • In preparation for the release of the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, the product version number has been updated to 1709 just like PC.
  • We fixed an issue where, on powering the screen off/on, high demand for CPU could cause several apps to crash. Background processing of photos is an example of high CPU demand. In a photo shoot session, you may have seen the Camera app crash.
  • We fixed an issue with the Messaging app where conversation text was displayed incorrectly. Thanks to our Insiders that quickly highlighted this issue.

As you might see, in the first point there is a cumulative update, details of which can be found here. This could be one of the final updates before the official release of the Fall Creators Update, which is scheduled to arrive on October 17 for PCs and phones.

If you're on the Slow ring, you can grab 15252 by heading over to Settings -> Update & security -> Windows Update -> Check for updates. If not, go to the Windows Insider Program tab and tap 'Get started'.
