StandAlone Windows Phone 7 Emulator (Microsoft XDE)

I don't wanna use monstrous VS2010 (which requires .net4 & silverlight4) on my home notebook so I found way to extract Microsoft XDE from "Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone CTP"
Attachment contains "extracted" from the package standalone emulator.
Just unpack attached zip and run sde_xde-enu.msi (if UAC is enabled you should start command promt and execute msiexec /i sde_xde-enu)
In MS terms install is silent so you don't need press "next" or "ok".
After install you find folder "%Program Files%\Microsoft XDE\" with Windows Phone 7 Emulator.
If you install the emulator on win x64 the path to emulator will look like this "%Program Files(x86)%\Microsoft XDE\".
The emulator will be installed both x86 and x64 but it seems that it does not work on x64 systems.
There is no WP7 images in archive so you must download it by yourself (original by M$ or patched version by Dan Ardelean).
Original image of WP7 by M$
Patched image of WP7 by Dan Ardelean mirror
After installing the application and download the file, you can run the emulator using the command:
Code:
"%Program Files%\Microsoft XDE\1.0\XDE.exe" %path_to_downloaded_image%
Despite the fact that it is installed on the XP, it only works on Vista and newer
step by step installation's guide by anarchyuk

So will you need Visual Studio Express Edition and all that jazz to make this work? Or just this installation and the emulator image?
Btw great work

main target was just to use the emulator without installing VS2010
just install this package and add the wp7_image

Works like a charm!! Thanks!

Image file
Thank you for the emulator
How can i get an image, do you have a URL or shared storage?

I've updated the first post with wp7image's URLs

anyone else get this to work?

Thanks for this

tried, but does not work at all:
1) installed from msi
2) run FAR as administrator
3) copied original WM70C1.bin to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\"
4) in directory "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\" typed:
Code:
XDE.exe WM70C1.bin
and nothing appeared, and no process xde.exe running in task manager
if i type XDE.exe without parameters, it shows its help screen, but if i run with any parameter (even if it is wrong) it shows nothing.
is this problem related only to my machine or somebody else is experiencing this also?

hmm.. I've tried many times on different PCs (win vista sp1 and newer but only x86) and I've had no problems..
there is just one problem that I found it will not work on winXP
pm me if you have any IM. it's much easier to me to talk in Russian

hmm again..
i've just test the emulator in the virtual machine with installed w7 x64 - all the symptoms as l2tp described
I'll try to find x64 version tonight

Thanks Sir

I installed this and it does not create the Microsoft XDE folder in program files....I am on Windows 7 x86. No error of anything. It did take a while and gave me a UAC prompt after a while.....
Edit: I enabled logging by running the msi with /log logfile.txt and it said:
vmmmsm_custom: Running custom action CA_InstallVMMDriver
vmmmsm_custom: Error creating VMM service, E = 6
CustomAction CA_InstallVMMDriver.3D2F911E_A60A_4C07_8F7D_5306DC073E9A returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
Action ended 17:11:12: InstallFinalize. Return value 3.
vmmmsm_custom: Running custom action CA_RemoveVMMDriver
vmmmsm_custom: There was an error stopping the VMM service. Run setup again after manually stopping the VMM service. (error code 6)
vmmmsm_custom: There was an error deleting the VMM service. The service has not been deleted. (error code 6)
I guess it is a problem with my machine with the virtual machine driver, but there seems to be no service...

today I'd installed CLEAN win vista sp2 business x86 on the virtual machine and then tested this emulator - all works fine but very slow
one more update - this installer conflicts with UAC (m$ suxxs one more time..)
if you install the full version of the VS2010 UAC's request appears at the beginning and everything is installed properly
but if you only install the emulator, then:
If UAC enabled installer says "all fine" but emulator doesn't install (see post hsclate)
If UAC disabled installer says "all fine" and emulator installs

Thanks working now....you don;t have to disable UAC if you don't want to, just run an elevated command prompt and run from there, then it installed. Thanks for the pointer...

Please work hard for the 64bit version, thanks really for this genius work.

Saw this emu-rip to late damn... After uninstalling all the "Microsoft Virtual Studio + I don't know how many crap from what Virtual Studio refused to uninstall via 'Programs and Features' so removed it kind of manually" the sde_xde-enu does not work anymore. While all that bullcrap was installed it actually did work...(@W7 x64)

damn rapid share thought it was extinct.
l2tp +1 confirmed

Yesterday I tried to install VS2010 on win7 pro x64 and it seems that there is no x64 version of vs2010. Because the download is the same version as downloaded on win vista hp sp2.

How to use SDK to root the phone?

Hi all,
I have just switched from the HD2 to the MT3G Slide and want to root the phone.
I knew how to do all the stuff on the HD2 from reading but cannot find any information here. The sticky placed on the top isn't much help because I know you need to use the Android SDK tool but I do not know how to set that up. & when I try to use the command line I cannot type in it. Please can someone give me some help on how to do this so I can get started on rooting my phone.
Thanks for reading!

you claim you read the sticky but yet if you had you would have seen the link on the first page i believe that tells you to get sdk from [link] and then on that page there is a link that says setting up SDK on your [OS] computer. then just follow the steps in there(which is really more like download file and double click setup) after that you can open up a terminal/console/cmd and type in cd \path to sdk\tools
if you are on mac or linux(unlikely since you can't read or search) you would type in
cd /path/to/sdk/tools notice how the slash between directories(folders) is the other way around
then follow the directions in the root thread(incredibly difficult i know but you should still try to do this part on your own)

Okay I have downloaded all of the Android SDK already. I have read it but my issue is when I try to type in the command it will not let me type. I also read that Anroid SDK is for xp & vista only and that windows 7 was not listed, so it this my issue? The command line you speak of is the one with the SDK tools and not the acutal windows CMD line?
I have followed everything to the line but still cannot seem to get this to work.
and to be clear I did read and there is nothing on there that states you need to have SDK to root the MT3GS. It says to download the slide_root

what operating system are you doing this on? that would be more helpful so i could tell you how to set this up correctly

windows 7. I have android SDK and I have downloaded the 2.1 Android pack.

if you are using windows 7 x64(very likely) then you cannot use that computer and you should try using ubuntu(same as using mac for 99% of the steps and there is a thread in q and a talking about this right now) or setting up a virtual machine and installing xp and using that to hack your phone. virtual machines are easy to setup and use if you can use virtualbox

download virtual box right now. will that come with xp installed on it or would I need to download that onto it?
thanks for all of your help.

you will need to get an xp install cd or iso to install xp on it. if you have any friends with xp install disks or you can find one online and use it as a trial(no key=no activation=30 day trial) then you can use it for a day and root with that.
disclaimer: i suggest totally legal versions of windows xp, any install disk you download or get illegally is your fault when the FBI/Bill Gates comes to the door

Instead of suggesting that he commits a felony why don't you tell him to use Ubuntu in the virtual machine? It'll take a little longer but it's less likely he'll be fined.

i didn't say commit a felony, and if you are going to use ubuntu then you don't need a virtual box(dumbass) you can use a live cd. i have been told by microsoft on MANY occasions that if you have a friend with XP install disks then you may use those, as well as the fact that installing it for one day in a virtual box is not illegal if you are not using a cracked key/re-used key, you can choose not to use a key and it is a temporary install for yourself to use either until you get a key, or the 30 days is up. much like you can buy vista/7 and install a different version if you like, but you will have to uninstall it and reinstall using the version i bought a key for once the trial has expired. read up and do your homework before you jump down someone's throat, it makes you look like an ass when i have to come back in here and teach you what a computer is

I set up and rooted two phones with windows 7.. I installed the sdk and pdanet drivers and thats it..

Is there anyway that you could give me a little help on getting this to work. When ever I try to type in the command line when i pull up the SDK it doesn't do anything. and when I try to pull up abd it just pops up a CMD for a quick two seconds.

look at link I posted

thanks. didn't see it. saw the last post was posted by eugene and scrolled down as fast as i could lol.
So the Command line is the CMD program through windows? I don't understand why someone wouldn't set me straight on that since I was saying the command line in SDK wasn't letting me type anything

Installing Drivers
Plug in your phone through USB and DO NOT MOUNT IT!!!!!
Your computer should see a new device and try to install Android 1.0 driver (If it doesnt, scroll down to the "Im not getting a notification of Android ADB when i plug in my USB" section)
Let it load
Once it cant find them select "Install drivers from my pc"
The drivers you need are in the Android SDK 1.5r2 folder (C:\android-sdk-windows\usb_driver)
Depending on your OS pick x86 or amd64
You ADB Android Device should now be installed! Good Job
When I do this part it doesn't find the ABD driver but it does not have anywhere to install drivers from my pc at all on my windows 7
edit: found where to go to add the usb drivers but when I select the folder all I get is "windows cannot find driver software on your pc"
edit 2: Found out what driver I needed, thanks for the guide source going to try to root this thing finally

[GUIDE] Crash Course in ADB/Unlocking on WINDOWS

Just wanted to try and put together something helpful for those who are unlocking their devices who might be doing this for the first time or just are having issues.
THIS GUIDE ONLY WORKS FOR WINDOWS FOLK, SORRY! IF YOU HAPPEN TO BREAK YOUR DEVICE OR DO ANYTHING TO IT THAT PREVENTS YOU FROM USING, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE, CAVETE LIBERUM OPUS.
ADB
Download ADB from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Make sure you install it where ever you are comfortable with, I tend to keep mine in my main installation (C: )
HTC Sync
Download HTC Sync here - http://www.htc.com/www/software/htc-sync-manager/
Why download HTC Sync? For the drivers. After the installation is complete you can remove HTC Sync, just not the drivers.
Appropriate Drivers
In your Program Files (x86) folder, there should be an HTC Folder, with the drivers in it.
What you are going to need to do is make sure that your device has the HTC drivers installed.
You'll need to open Control Panel ----> Hardware and Sound ----> Device Manager
Your HTC One should be under portable device or android phone, or something similar to that. If it is telling you the current drivers are up to date, you may need to disable driver signature enforcement, and that method is different between Windows 7 and 8.
You'll want to update the driver software by right clicking ----> Update Driver Software ----> Browse my computer for driver software ----> Browse...; then select the HTC Driver folder from within the HTC folder (you'll have to navigate to it)
If you need to disable driver signature:
Windows 7 - http://bit.ly/1bE0jZT
Windows 8 - http://bit.ly/1bE0mF7
Trouble Shooting ADB and Rumrunner
I am, in no way, saying that I am an expert in running rumrunner. If you can use irc and contact beaups please do. However, just in general, here are tips I think might work -
Go to "System and Security" from Control Panel and click "Allow an app through Windows Firewall." Click "Change Settings" at the top and then click "Allow another app...". Navigate to your extracted rumrunner file and select the soju.exe to be allowed through. Why do this? Because I personally rather not take down my entire firewall to allow this program to run. No offense to beaups, just doesn't seem terribly practical to me.
In your ADB installation folder, go into SDK -----> platform tools ----> Hold down left shift and right click -----> Open command window here
type in adb devices; if you are not seeing
List of devices attached
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX device (read the X's as a string of numbers which are your device)
then it isn't ready to be use rumrunner. You'll have to go into Settings -----> About Phone -----> Software Information -----> Then click 7 times on Build Number to unlock developer options. Go into "Developer Options" and enable USB Debugging.
As mentioned in Rumrunner, please run soju.exe AS ADMINISTRATOR, to avoid permission issues on computer-side.
OEM Cables are also ideal in this situation. Also make sure you downloaded the right file (.8 version versus .10)
Last but not least, IT TAKES A WHILE FOR SOJU TO RUN. BE PATIENT Your phone will reboot A LOT during the entire process. It'll take awhile, but if you run into the (.........) problems or an error because your drivers aren't installed correctly be patient.
The guide isn't perfect, but hopefully it helps. I'll add advice if it comes in.

Great guide!
Make sure to remember to do a fastboot devices check too. that is my problem adb works great fastboot is another story

Ubuntu Newbie - Cant connect via Terminal

Hi. I mistakenly spilled a glass of water over my MacBook and it is now destroyed (No Aple Care). While I am saving up for a new machine I am using Ubuntu 16.04 on a QNAP 453 Pro.
Everything work fine but i cant get it to recognise my phone in Terminal. When I connect the phone it shows the phone icon but i cant connect. It hasnt asked for authorisation on the phone to use the QNAP so
I can understand why its not showing up when i go into terminal and its not showing up as an attached device.
I tried this -
[email protected]_1604:~/Downloads/platform-tools$ sudo jmtpfs /home/admin/media/myphone
Device 0 (VID=18d1 and PID=4ee2) is a Google Inc (for LG Electronics/Samsung) Nexus 4/5/7/10 (MTP+ADB).
libusb_open() failed!: No such file or directory
LIBMTP PANIC: Unable to initialize device
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'MtpErrorCantOpenDevice'
what(): Can't open device
Aborted
As the title says I dont know much about Ubuntu. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.

edit - I am running Stock 7.1.2 beta with an unlocked bootloader.

[SOLVED] Connetion SDB failed Galaxy Watch

Hi,
I updates my galaxy watch by changing CSC but now it is impossible to connect anymore in OneUI!
Wifi connection only is ok
IP Fix ok
Bluetooth Off
On sdb always failed or device offline...
It was ok in the prevoious os version!!!
Maybe someone can help me?
Thank you for help

it takes a while try changing the port to 26099 or 26101 it took me like 2 hours on my first try

I also had problems resetting CSC back to UK after temporarily changing it to get my Galaxy Watch 46mm to get the new Tizen upgrade. Make sure that the watch is still set to debug mode and developer mode is activated after the CSC change and the watch has reformatted itself.
In my case, I could not reconnect to the watch with sdb until I had manually deleted the sdb key & pub files on my laptop, to force the watch to ask me to re-accept the RSA key and let my laptop connect to it again. The files to be deleted are sdbkey and sdbkey.pub under C:\users\username\.tizen (make sure you can see hidden files in Windows Explorer).
Good luck.

Try using updated sdb version and use phone as Hotspot for both devices.
You can find most up to date version in c/tizenstudio after installing it

One step often omitted for getting "sdb connect" to work is after turning on debug, off bluetooth, on wifi, and making wifi connection.... THEN REBOOT the watch.

Thank you for help!!All is ok after a simple reboot!!!!!!!!
