There won't be a new Windows 10 Mobile preview build this week and here's why

Microsoft has decided not to release a new Windows 10 Mobile preview build this week to Insider members. Microsoft wants to fix a couple of issues in the last preview build first.

You may remember that after the last preview build, 14926, was released a week ago, Insider members started reporting issues with SIM cards and pin pads on the Mobile side. In a blog post, Windows Insider head Dona Sarkar stated:

After upgrading to Build 14926, some Insiders reported that the pin pad is no longer visible to unlock their phone even after rebooting the phone and some phones lost the ability to use their SIM card. In both cases, a hard reset of resolves the issue. Based on the feedback we received from Insiders, we have decided not to release a new Mobile build this week until we get fixes for these two issues.

As we reported earlier, PC users on the Insider Fast ring can now download the new Windows 10 preview build 14931.
