Hello,
I know there is a procedure for updating the phone on Windows Vista, but I'm asking myself if someone tried to do an update from a Windows XP virtual machine (as those machines can access to the USB)?
In a nutshell :
Windows Vista real computer
--> Running VMWare Workstation 6
----> Running Windows XP Pro
------> Updating the ROM of the phone
Thanks !

Well, I do this with XP running virtually in Mac OSX through a similar program called Paralells - works like a champ. NOt exactly what you are asking, but close.
I use VMWare 6 in my Vista PC for flash using XP OS before WDCM was launched... and works great...
Now i continue using to flash my Wizard in XP Box trough Virtual Machine cause upgrade tool for Wizard is not compatible with Vista...
So you can use to flash what you want, sure.
Regards.
Thanks for your experiments This will be a super trick for updating my hermes without having to worry about windows vista drivers things!

Did you guys configure something special in VMware? My VM'ed XP doesn't find the phone (Wizard) over USB, I just get an error in the RUU...
I'm running XP Pro 32bit in VMware 6 on Vista 64bit. Didn't change anything in the VMware configuration... Any ideas?
Not to horribly change the subject, but why not make sure your phone is supercid and flash from an sd card?
I have used this method many times from my Mac desktop, instead of getting out my XP Laptop.
at the very least:

ROM flash through VMWare with a hackintosh/osx86/hackint0sh
Just a little note for anyone searching
You can also flash from a VMWare XP virtual machine in OSX on a hackintosh
Since it is possible to run vative codes on windows phone Is it possible to port QEMU or other emulators on windows phone7?
Hi all,
I've got a problem and I hope someone will be able to help me :fingers-crossed:
I'm now working on a Core Due Duo PC at 2.1GHz on Kubuntu.
When I need Windows, I usually virtualize it in my VirtualBox. Since now, I had no problems with it.
Because I HATE Windows 7 for previous problems, I tried to install Windows Phone SDK on my Windows XP virtualized, following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Windows_Phone_7_Emulator
Now, emultators starts but it is too slow!
After it starts, after about 20mins disappears the writing as in "booting_1.jpg" file here attached and after some minutes appear Windows Phone Logo as in "wp.png" file attached.
After that, emulator don't go on any more.
I tried the same emulator in a Windows XP machine no virtualized and after some minute emulators was ready.
According to you, is there something I can do for developing for WP7 in my virtual XP? Some particular settings?
I hope in some help, thank you very much
How would i go about installing a windows driver on android, and is it possible to do it without a linux emulator?
