    How to get Android APPS working on Windows Phone 10 Preview [EASY GUIDE]

    [​IMG]

    Microsoft has been working on Android APK support in Windows Phone 10. This guide will talk how to enable Android virtual machine on Windows Phone 10 Preview and install Google Play Android Store with further Android apps.

    You will need:
    Windows PC
    USB Cable
    Nokia Lumia Windows 10 Phone with at least 1GB of RAM. List of tested and working models:
    I will use Nokia Lumia 920 for this guide. It's running Windows Phone 8.1, so I'll need to update it to Windows Phone 10 first.

    Updating to Windows Phone 10 Preview
    1. Download Windows Insider app from Windows app store.
    2. Enroll for Windows Phone 10 Preview Insider program, I recommend Fast Ring option for the latest Win 10 version.
    3. Phone will reboot.
    4. Go to Settings > Phone Update > Download Windows 10 update.

    7. Drag Android App APK file and click install.
    8. Install takes from half a minute to several minutes, depending on size of the APK.

      when i tried installing the file (pkTOw10M), it gave me this error/WARNING.

      windows configures windows Phone IP Over USB; Installing prerequisites, then verifying prerequisties & then I get this first error.
      Warning 4154. Windows Phone IP Over USB prerequisite was not correctly installed. Continue Installation of APKtoW10M?

      Then it asked. Whether continue? I clicked yes, it finished the install.

      then it tried to open the application with another Error.

      Wconnect.exe Entry point not Found with details " The procedure entry point EventSetInformation could not be located in the dynamic link library ADVAPI32.dll"

      Can someone please help ? (Mine is Lumia 930, running windows 10. PC is Windows 7)
