All of you might be waiting for Windowsphone 8.1 developer update. So,let me tell you the wait is over now. Microsoft released windows phone 8.1 for users registered in developer preview program which was initiated by Microsoft before GDR3 update.  Anyone can easily register with developer preview program that too for free. Follow these simple steps to get wp8.1 update:

  1. First and most importantly we need a developer account. So you can get your App studio account here for free. You just need click on “start building apps”and then sign in using your Microsoft Live ID that you used to sign-in on your Windows phone. That’s it you have a free developer account now. Off course free account has some limitations but we can get our work done by this free account.
  2. Now download and install ” Preview for developers” app by Microsoft from here .
  3. Start the app and sign-in with the same Live ID that you used to sign-in on your App studio account (created in first step).
