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

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!
Thanks!
works like a charm ive been using it since january and i always updaye my roms in it and parallels
dont understand post,

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
Alright, so the issue is... I have the SDK... and it won't work on either of the operating systems I run. I am running Ubuntu 9.10 and Windows 7, both 64bit. There are two main aspects I am after with it. Using DDMS to take screenshots and mess with stuff on devices, and the virtual Android system. On Ubuntu, DDMS comes up, but it shows my device as just ?????? and I am unable to do anything. I have already tried putting in the rules thing I found all over google, and it has done nothing. The correct IDs were in as well. On Windows, why I try to use it... it pops up with a command prompt screen for a split second and does nothing. On both Ubuntu and Windows, when I try to use a virtual device, all it does is crashes. This is with all different settings. So, is there anyone that can help me out with these issues? I just spent 3 hours of google searching to no avail. None of the fixes or anything I have found made any difference. Well... that's not true... one of them made DDMS not work at all... but that just needed to be restored. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Update: Doesn't work on the gf's laptop either which is running on Windows XP. So, it doesn't work on Ubuntu, Windows 7, or Windows XP. Wtf does this run correctly on?
hi,
i am using win7 (64bit) and just upgraded my xda3 from 2003 to 6.5.. how?
just by using oracle's virtual box
i have installed xp on that.. then connected the xd3 over the cradle..
used the utilities for xp (maupgrade) and finished.. as on a real xp machine.. so easy!
here is a pic:

Heyho,
just read this Fu**ing great Tut from D-Two:
http://www.mediafire.com/?wozgwddo3ay
all you need is in this PDF, also all Software Downloads as Links...
So, there´s no need for Virtual Crap, but anyway...Thanks for that
at first i use Win 7 64bit I'm get confuse too, but that Tut give me a light.
im already try almost all rom in this forum for BA, but i think the best room is WM6.1+Manila by dtwo http://bit.ly/b44Dwe.
the important thing is, it worked. but to get on with galluslongus' idea, for flashing with win 7 (even x64) you don't need to run a virtual machine. i tried them all and encountered that to correctly loop through the usb correctly to any virtual machine (vmware, virtual box, virtual pc xp mode, virtual pc 2007...) you need the correct windows 7 drivers anyways. after installing those drivers you can flash in win7 directly, like the way, most people do.
i open this thread again.. because i am now at the point to flash RC5 on my BA. but first i had to downgrade to 2003 to upsize to 60MB Space.. but i cant downgrade, although the right image is in the folder with MaUpgade and i have done all the things in the PDF Guide like driver change and further steps..
if i start MaUpgrade (BA is in USB mode) the tool didnt detect the version.. if i press next, the tool checks the device and then notice me of successfull upgrade.. but my device is still running 6.5.3??!
Any advice?

you don't need downgrade!!! flash the rc5 it has an app for rezise at the beginning!!
PS: You must put the Blueangel into the Bootloader!!
its not my first time, and i did the previous steps.. driver update for win7 64bit. look sreen:
My device is running WM 6.5.3 Beta with 1.15.0 Radio
but i still get that Error 150.. i tried both RC5s on ur mainpost. i tried it with your updater.. what i am doing wrong? cant figure it out - the BA is in Bootloader and the cradle is connected via backside USB Port, not Hub or frontside. On Screen i see USB!
EDIT:
Now its working!!
I just reinstalled the driver and then sign it again via dseo13b (putin .sys in win32\drivers) - restarted pc and now it works!! YES!!
?? didnt understand anything.. sry! whats the problem?
omg zonice nomne
After downloading WP7 device manager i got a bit pissed after the installation failed because my computer isn't Windows Vista or 7. Like the windows developer tools i was able to bypass the requirements and install it to me Windows Xp. I was wondering if i could do the same for the device manager?
I'm not sure, but why do you need it? Syncing the phone can be done with the Zune software, which is available on XP as long as you have SP3
EDIT: Nevermind, I didn't realize what you were talking at first...I was thinking of WP7 device manager for the mac which allows content sync...not the same as what it is on windows. Disregard this post
Pretty straightforward question. I'm looking at going from a Windows laptop to a macbook and want to make sure some of the programs I use frequently work. Will Odin work via Windows on a Mac? Thanks.
Anyone? Really want to pull the trigger on this MBP, but want to ensure I can still tinker with my android devices...
i just used Odin and it would not work on my MBP with Parallels Win 7. I had to drag out my PC and then Odin worked fine

How about boot camp? Do you think the issue has to do with drivers? Not familiar with Mac OS yet... My current laptop is the only windows machine I own and don't want to get rid of it in lieu of the MBP in case some of my programs don't work...
Haven't tried boot camp

Sent via PM, but finally realized why it wasn't posting in the forum (links)
...So posting here since someone else may need/want this at some point:
1) You'll want vmware fusion; there's a trial. You can easily install and uninstall it on a mac if you don't want to pay. Vbox and parallels won't work.
2) You'll need the Samsung USB drivers for phones exe from Samsung's website. You'll probably also want to separately get the Kies binaries (both windows bins).
3) MS offers pre-made VMs in virtualbox format (ova's); these aren't activated and expire in 30 days, but will still sorta work after that (they'll shut down after about 30-60mins after that point). Easy enough to just reimport; not sure how often you plan on using Odin. Kies itself is generally ok on a mac, but nothing else is (aside from like graphics-tab apps, and generic usb file stuff). You'll want to get Win7 vm images. These should work but if not you can google; MS doesn't make a secret of their VMs, they're made for developers to check compatibility between different versions of IE. Get all of these and then decompress, and you'll get an .ova file (links to Win7-IE10 VM archive files removed as I don't have 10 posts yet).
4) In VMware Fusion, you'll want to import the .ova file (.ova's are technically virtualbox images, but vmware will easily convert them to its own format). Once you've imported it go into the VM's settings and allocate 2gb of ram or so to the VM (I wouldn't go much below that; if you have a later mac that shouldn't be a problem; you might be able to get by on 1.5gb though I haven't tried). You'll also want to go into the vmware usb settings and make sure to be prompted when you add a device instead of just attaching it to one or the other or you'll wind up with issues, possibly, later on.
5) Boot the Win7 vm, install VMware tools, reboot, install samsung drivers, and then install Kies if you want Kies as well (Kies may also bridge some driver gaps, I can't remember; I do remember I had a bit of trouble with correct device recognition; I'll keep an eye on this thread and if you have a problem post publicly and I can message you with the proper driver set otherwise this should work afair); the problem, if I recall, was in detecting the specific USB devices/hub, if anything. DO NOT plug in your tablet until all of these drivers have been installed and you have rebooted the VM. You've been warned.
6) Boot the VM, plug the cable into the tablet, and then the other end into the Mac. If you've set up the USB prompting properly (btw make sure you set it to 2.0 not 3.0), you should get a prompt asking if you want to attach it to the Mac or Windows; choose Windows. The drivers should do there thing in a few minutes and eventually recognize the tablet. You may or may not want to reboot the VM one last time at this point before opening Odin, but at this point it should all work.
* A note: you'll probably want to enable a shared folder via VMware with the contents of anything you want to flash and the exes to flash them with; this is pretty straightforward in the VM settings. You'll want to copy/paste from that shared folder to the VM, not run from it; Odin and other stuff tends to hang if you try to run it directly from the share. I just keep everything I need or might want to use in the future on the VM and suspend it til I need it again, but you can just as easily shut it down and it'll retain all of the data, etc; just be mindful of the 30 day limit if you're using one of the precompiled VMs (as I said, they'll still work, but it can get naggy and shut itself down if not in use (or maybe if it is, but I haven't had it bomb out on me mid-flash (yet, knock wood)).
Good luck and enjoy.
not a single problem with parallels windows 8 or xp. while i flash 4.4.2 via odin i surf the web on mac safari.

VMware should do.
It works very well on Linux.
That's interesting...

Mind if I ask what release of OSX and hardware you're on? I know I was having some USB recognition problems with the other two, but that was 2 point releases ago on Mavericks (on 10.9.3 now, haven't tried again). It could be a MBP thing also. I wouldn't mind using Parallels (I have a licensed copy) if it worked for this; as it stands I use parallels for OSX, vbox for *nix and android, and vmware for windows OSes for various reasons.
Macbook Pro 13.3 2012. Mavericks updated, parallels updated with latest version. Windows 8.1 work fine with odin, but i use mainly windows xp. both configure with usb 3.0 driver.
12GB ram, 512GB SSD samsung evo (this is just for show off not relevant to update our tablet) .
i used vmware sideways with parallels but find that parallels it's more faster, reliable and more crash proof.
after you connect the tablet to mac you get the option to connect to mac or virtual machine. afterwards you allways have the option to connect/disconect the usb periferic.

That's what I use; until Ben Dobell can fix Heimdall for Linux for the P60X series I've just been booting into Win7 via VMWare from my Linux machine.

I'm on a late 2013 13.3 MBP. I think back when I was trying to debug the problem I'd read that USB 3.0 and how it's handled on the latest MB might have something to do with it, but I can't recall correctly. I should probably retry just for sh*ts and giggles; was always on the most recent Parallels, VMware, and VirtualBox. That said, I've found VMware in general to be more stable on my particular machine, and quicker to boot/suspend/unsuspend. It could very well just be my imagination or preference though, nosing its way in.
And talking about hardware is never showing off, as long as you're making good use of it. OS wars, however, is another story.
