1. Download the attachments.
2. Extract the 3 files from sign.zip and place them in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\Bin\"
(People who don't have Visual Studio 2005 installed will not have the folders automatically, so you just need to make the folders yourself)
3. install the software from Setup[1].zip
4. You will have Security Configuration Manager, start it!
5. Click on 'File' --> Sign File --> With Normal Development Certificate or With Privileged Development Certificate.
Have fun!
I recently made the full conversion to Windows 7 from XP and Vista64, and I must say getting setup again for resigning files, adb, and fastboot were a breeze, maybe 10 minutes tops.
I downloaded and installed the Java JDK here: https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/[email protected]_Developer
I went to Environmental Variables through Windows Key + Pause/Break > Advanced System Settings > Environmental Variables.
Under user variables I added CLASSPATH and assigned the variable value to: D:\android\tools\testsign.jar (in my case)
Under system variables I added to the end of Path: %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;D:\android\tools (in my case)
I then went to my tools folder and double clicked the testsign_apk.reg to add it to registry and now I am able to Re-sign my zip files. It took all of 5 minutes and unlike vista I can keep my default file association and still right click to resign files.

Been using 7 for little over 9 months now, its always been a breeze
Windows 7 is so simple a caveman can do it. I'll have my copy in a few days GG MSDN
I thought this was a Windows 7 theme for the G1 I was bout to say let's go!
Setting up a development environment is really not that hard. I am using Windows 7 with a 64-bit processor, although the procedure is not terribly different across sytems, just make sure you choose the right download for your architecture.
The entire process can be broken down into four major steps. Let's get started.
1) Get Java
You can get the Java Standard Edition Software Development Kit through this link: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/
At the time of writing this post, the latest version available is 7u3. Click the download button under where it says 'JDK' and you will be taken to a list of installers. Make sure you get an installer from the group who's header is "Java SE Development Kit 7u3"; the other one is just sample code.
Make doubly sure that you choose the right architecture (x86 vs x64) as the wrong one will give you an error message and you will have to go uninstall everything and start over.
After the download has finished, run the installer.
Note: It may give the option to install JavaFX and the Ask Toolbar. While they won't hinder your development in any way, there won't be any need for them within the scope of this guide so you might find it worthwhile to not install them.
2) Get Eclipse
Once you've installed the Java DK, go get a copy of the Eclipse IDE here:
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ You can see that the IDE comes in many different flavors. Eclipse Classic will work fine.
Extract the folder and place the 'eclipse' subdirectory in a safe place. Try running eclipse by traversing this directory and running eclipse.exe. If you see the Eclipse splashscreen, everything is OK. If you see an error message then something may have gone wrong when you installed Java. If it complains about missing or corrupted DLLs, you probably have installed the wrong version of Java for your system. If it complains about not being able to find Java (for example, stuff about javaw.exe) you may need to manually add Java's location to your Path environmental variable. There is lots of documentation on how to do throughout the internet and most can probably explain it better than me. (^; Another method to fix the problem is to go find out where all the Java binaries are (Normally something like "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk~~~~~~~\bin"), copy the directory path, and add
Code:
-vm
<FOLDERPATH>\javaw.exe
to the end of the 'eclipse.ini' file that resides alongside 'eclipse.exe'
Note: You may notice that the version of Eclipse you downloaded isn't installed, but instead just runs out of a folder. You may want to consider creating a binaries folder in your home directory to keep all of software of this style in one place.
3) Get Android Plugins for Eclipse
Now that you have Eclipse up an running, you need to set it up for Android development. Start Eclipse up and click the 'Help' menu. Click 'Install New Software...'
In the window that comes up, you should see a combo box labelled 'Work with:' . Paste in:
Code:
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
then hit enter.
Check 'Developer Tools' and click next. Let Eclipse do it's thing then click 'Finish'.
4) Get the API
Now that you have Eclipse's Android integration plugins, you need to grab an Android API. In Eclipse, under the 'Window' menu, click 'Android SDK Manager.'
The window that opens will automatically go to the internet and grab all the API packages available to download. The Nook Touch currently runs Android 2.1, so find that package set and check it. Click the 'Install <x> Packages' button and let it run.
You are finished! Now to create an Android program. In Eclipse's main menu, navigate File > New > Other... and select 'Android Project' from the 'Android' folder in the window. If you want to modify the source of an existing program, choose the appropriate radio button and browse to the parent directory of the 'src' folder. After you have created your project, you are going to want to make sure it has the right dependencies. On the lefthand pane ('Package Explorer') right click your project folder (The top one) and hit 'Properties.' Under the 'Android' screen, make sure 'Android 2.1' is checked and not another version. Click OK and you should be set.
To generate an APK, under 'File' click 'Export.' In 'Android' click 'Export Android Application.' Choose the right project, click next. If this is the first time you've exported an Android application, you will need to create a keystore. Select the appropriate radio button, navigate to a safe location, and give it your keystore a password. Click 'next' and add all the information you see fit. You will be able to reuse this keystore in future programs. After you've created a keystore, proceed through the export wizard, give your APK a filename, click finish and the file will be generated.
The rest is up to you. (^:
Thanks klausef!
For a non-dev (OK, I used to program short apps in BASIC on my commodore 64 when I was 8 years old), how much can I hope to achieve by setting this up? Do I need to understand a programming language? If so, which? Do you have any suggestions for a noob like me?
Haha I am no Java expert myself but I've been hacking around with the NoRefresh thing and other apps people have coded. You can do more than you think just by rummaging around online documentation.
I dont know,if anyone knowing this awesome Prog. so im sharing it,when its a similar Thread to an other so please delete the Post.

It is not complete yet. I will be adding files and more clear instructions slowly.
Do this at your own risk. Your device may be bricked. I am still not sure if the SecureBoot fix should be executed on 8.0 or 8.1

Dumb question......I been reading the other post in regards to installing Windows 10 on the other surface 2..... Would I have to follow this tutorial or the one for the surface 2 if I have a surface 2 running rt? Also it says I need a keyboard..... Does it mean a USB keyboard or can I use my Microsoft soft keyboard?
This will work on rt 8.1 ??
Hey I see you've got a trick to install ublock on edge but the download link is missing, can you give it to us please, it's one of the last things I really need for my tablet to be totally functionnal
I finally managed to install Windows 10 on my Surface RT, and for now it's great! It's a shame that Microsoft didn't update the tablet officially, and that this version is so old that many newer apps don't work, but it's better than nothing!
Some useful informations I learned through the process:
1) Initially I used the recovery image for my language downloaded from Microsoft, and with this image I wasn't able to enable test mode after installing the secure boot policy. I tried the chinese image provided on Yandex (links are in other threads on this forum) and it worked on first try, so use that!
2) Even after enabling Test Mode, if you run the command Confirm-SecureBootUEFI in powershell, it still gives you True as result. I was worried that Secure Boot wasn't really disabled but I was wrong. To confirm that secure boot is disabled you have to enter the command prompt via recovery image and check the right corner of the screen if it says "secure boot is not configured correctly" or something like that. In that case, you can install W10 safely.
3) Some guides are wrong about the file you have to rename to remove the warning about the expiration of the build. The right file is LicensingUI.exe, not LogonUI.exe! LogonUI.exe is responsible for the login interface, if you rename it you won't be able to login on the next reboot, so pay attention!
4) Office 2013 is not activated for me, I tried to install the provided licences many times, but nothing. It seems to work anyway though. There's something I missed?
To be completely satisfied I need:
- a working version of the Crunchyroll app, the one in the store requires a newer build, anyone know how to find it?
- MSN Weather for W10, the one provided is the old W8 app.
- Ad blocker for Edge, someone wrote about sideloading uBlock but didn't share the files.
Does the office 2013 work? I installed it on my Surface RT with the Windows 10 build but it says that it only works on qualifying versions on windows and editing is disabled...

I was able to install it and getting working 100%...... there's another tread that's for installing windows 10 on surface 2 tablet and there's a link in the OP for a mega folder that contains the office 360 files and in it a file that edits the registry
Hello. I can also confirm that it works. I have installed Win 10RT and very happy with it. It really brings a lot of new experience to our tablet as same as a bit faster response.
If you want to use an adblock for Edge, the only one that works is Adblock, directly from the Store. However, adblock support in this build of Edge is very buggy, it eats a lot of ram (sometimes leading to crashes) and some sites fail to load with adblock enabled. So I suggest to install it and to manually acrivate/deactivate it when needed.
Speaking of the Store, I found a bug, at least for me: the install button works only for the apps you already own. So, if you want to install an app you never downloaded, you have to acquire it first on another PC and then on the Surface RT.
Does someone know how to make the the newer Microsoft store (Provided by @_CNR_)to work?
I installed it but however, it won't install any app because of a licence problem probably...
(The older store worked but it does not include all of the apps for example myTube)
If everything goes wrong can I just download a recovery image for 8.1 and install it again?

If everything goes wrong. Just boot from the recovery USB stick and reimage the Windows 8.1 using the same dism apply image method.

Ok so I'm attempting to follow this tutorial and the other one for my original surface rt. Where is the wim for windows 10? Those instructions don't seem clear to me, or am I supposed to use the surface 2 image?

Ok I see. I ran into a different issue. I went to do the Windows 10 install today but to my surprise, I couldn't boot up. Luckily I still had my Windows 8.1 Full Recovery USB. But, for for some reason from the advanced troubleshooter, it tells me my USB device is invalid. Has anyone run into this before?
Can be updated to Windows 10 version 1909?

Of course not, the only build of ARM32 Windows 10 we have is this one, and it's leaked.
Wow, really cool!
I would like to know if the cameras work in windows 10? Thanks so much!
