I ran across Windows Mobile SDK and some emulators/images of WM6.1 on microsoft's website and when i ran it, it comes up on the screen as if it were a real ppc, allowing me to install cabs and have them function and all. I can't get the program to allow me to change the BIN it uses as the image. If this could be figured out, could this be used to test ROMs before flashing (I want to get into cooking)?
i dont not believe the emulator support real roms as it dont deal with drivers and other hardware related issues at all
it also comes as standalone so people dont need to install the sdk
Hi all - want to know what the status is on a hspl for wp7 and if can help and wondering how live pvk and id goes to phone in hd2-wp7 situation where no real device provisioning partition exists?!?!?!??! This leads me to think that maybe:
Perhaps with Cotulla's partition layout over 4 seperate nand areas it would be an option to modify this and his wp7 spl because the activation thing happened AFTER (live activation hack around etc) he had finished leo70 release and then..........
-whilst jtag/usb or eth/debug happening- (obviously Da_G etc thought of this b4- im just extrapolating further on this now live done after dft released- let me know if way off)- to take a HTC HD2 (LEO70) that HAS BEEN ACTIVATED ON LIVE and see where/how/when/with/which partitions, filesys, regkeys, etc, have pvk for live or the ffu and then insert a test cert like ur own xbmod/chevron. or whatever is in sdk for 7 or ce. and then utilize this to diff and comp. I dont see why not. Then .ffu then self signature.
If anyone is looking at doing this and needs hardware or I can help let me know thanks. Also:
Anyway to DUMP the newly-activated after-hack after-key after-ms-call hd2 wp7 contents completely? Any news on this unknown filesystem and sd jbod with nand? If a way to extract device provisioning partition etc. Not interested so much in live but more HSPL-for-WP7 creation to allow custom roms. Can not seem to find much on this. Anyone got ideas on own signature or other method using pre-existing leo70 nand parts as workaround maybe?
For the record - I have used a singled live key from Microsoft activation phone call more than 4 times on 2 devices and it works fine over and over: you have to consider fact that if vendor or product id was misflashed at factory onto DPP then every hardreset would not wipe this (unsure)? causing you to call microsoft again and ask for another key? eitherway:
does ne1 know what the key over the phone from microsoft is actual doing? is this key taken with say imei or serial of phone and maybe your @live.com unique GUID and seeded or used with hash or some algorithm to produce a pvk for device provisioning partition? or it simply override and enable live? are there only one type of activation key over phone? seems there could be ones maybe based on your live address+guid and ones that completely allow model and oem identification to be cleanly changed?
I am just theorizing here from what I have been reading. Finally: Is it true that uk/etc MS stopped giving out keys and referring ppl to HTC etc for
live? Any press release or official reaction?

I have experience as a .net developer, a SQL developer, and a network administrator, but I've never done anything with mobile development. I'll be able to do some damage, but I need someone to point me in the right direction here.
I am not interested in messing with the existing windows CE os AT ALL, only Android. I motivated by this phone because it's the only modern phone who's ESN can be activated on verizion without a data plan.
SO, can an experienced person within the community give me a lay of the land of where I can contribute and get working?
my 2c: Most of the hacking i've done was on PSP, and they always loaded custom firmware by getting into the core / bios area, just like all of the other jailbreak methods. Can we do that?

well, one major thing that you can help with, is getting drivers for the kin two, because the ones we have are only diag drivers, and do not let us see the phone in windows explorer...the diag drivers only let us see the filesystem in Bitpim.
welcome to the "i know kung-fu but this seems to need jiu-jitsu" group of developpers.
As noted above... drivers.. drivers drivers....
In the other threads you can see my hardware attempts resume about the usb access to the devices and explanation about why we didnt flashed anything yet (tldr; is shop-protected).
The only driver available for flashing (in windows) or linux direct access turned us into a nvflash executable being frozen, doing anything. For the other modes we have not data on how to operate with them.
On your request: yes, you could run android here, as tegra 2500 was made for wince and android (currently they work with froyo), so i guess we could do the move (i would want to backup Win CE anyway... just in case ... for messing around with flashing...).

I've never edited or created a driver, but if someone will point me in a specific driver, I will hammer away as best I can.
I don't understand what you mean here:
" The only driver available for flashing (in windows) or linux direct access turned us into a nvflash executable being frozen, doing anything. For the other modes we have not data on how to operate with them."
Point 1) The APX mode (booting with USB keys + power) is what we called as flashing "part", which uses nvflash (.exe) as tool to do flashing to the devices.
The driver you can get from nvidia (that one exists) lets nvflash find the device but the kin seems to be writeprotected, so the tool outputs an error while connecting to the KIN. Also, further attemps make nvflash get stuck in the connection process forever (and ever).
Point 2) The other modes (normal or special keys hold) have no known drivers nor known-yet ways to get them. Of course, if i knew how to make one, i would have tried to make it myself, as i tried with the MPMz protocol on the kin, so can't point you in any direction there.
That's what i meant.
Hello,
i have made a Firmware Downloader that had the availability to download all Samsung Mobile Fimrwares, but since march this year samsung changed the server, and is using a new system for getting the data. However this tool could help someone who maybe find the new way to download firmwares, it has already access to the old server, only the firmwares are all transfered to the neofus server.
It could help someone, maybe, because i am not allowed to do anything here, cause i am new, i will try to support the new developers.
It is developed in C# .net 4 and you will need kies installed, or the fuscryptlib registered, found in the kies folder or in the app folder.
regsvr32 %Path%/fuscrypt.dll
Should i explain that this downloader had the availability to download also android fw and so on? maybe there is someone who can made it.
It was before march the ultimate tool to get every fw from the server. I tried at my own to make a new one, the my developer mentor tried it, we failed due to lack of time.
Just downloaded the "Slyfer300" app. The UI is superb. Just a pity Samsung has changed the server to their firmwares and we cannot use this tool for now. Let's hope and pray someone comes up and lend a hand to complete this wonderful app. So that we can easily download and flash firmwares manually without the need for kies.
I included a screenshot of this superb app below for the eyes only (until it becomes a fully functional app)
The App worked a half year, samsung changed the servers since March 2011, i was before here @badanation.de and developed it in the past. The app was secret and we offered for everyone free Firmwares of their desire, the only rule was only for badanation members.
I puplished it, cause maybe someone here @xda could make it work with the new server that was a cool time when you start the app and you can download any firmware you want.
The old system was based on a PL/SQL query over PHP, i have found a bug in the system and could request the whole Database from the Firmwares, you can see in advanced mode what was possible.
Also user names and their ... was visible, but i newer wonted to damage samsung i always wanted to help other users with the firmware problems we all have.
The new System is a little bit tricky signatures and so on no more php
As i know here was some nice developers @xda that could maybe improve it. Let us see what the feature brings to us.
Hi, nice tool. Unfortunately it's not working with the new servers. I have made a tool that can download the latest firmware from samsungs new servers, but it still requires an old firmware as input. I have not found any way to browse all firmwares like you could on the old server. A lot have chenged in the way you request firmwares and it unfortunately no possible to reuse this tool on the new server.
Yes, it was not simple to find out the right PL/SQL commands for oracle, it was more a doing by trying thing. But as i saw it on keys the listening method still exists on new server, it is the same database, only with a new system. I have done some Kies 2 researches but than give up, cause of lack of time. I had a tool that can download with the new request system.
Only what you need is to pass through the right PL/SQL command, in Kies you find an CarrierTestMode and ServiceCenterMode, one of this two can listen the whole Phonebinary databases, the code is to huge, i havent done a lot since the half year slyfer worked.
Its in a case simply only need to find out the right command, also what is neccessary to find a security whole on new server, on the old server, it was prohibited to execute SQL statements except of predefined calls, but i found a way as you see, it was more an oracle bug, how you can get anyway in and become the whole database information with dictionary commands out, it was at least so easy to get everything out of there. Then i have done some facelifting and made for me an advanced mode to be prepared of changes, but at the near end it doesnt worked any more.
I think you can get in like kies withouth authentification, as before, cause there is no username or password needet if the table is accessable by everyone, its like free to air.
If you need some tips, how i have found out the way in, i can help you. i dont know how to encrypt the new way, but i know that the answer is in the FusCipherUtil.dll it hink it is named so, dont know it exactle, kies is like an open book as you also seems to know.
Forgotten one thing, if you try to send SQL command that listen whole database, then you will get in timeout, cause oracle needs time to collect all the data, i had problems to recieve simple sized calls from it, so you must limit them that you can recieve the data in time everything over an minuete dont works as i remember.
1250 rows around was for my requests the maximum, everything above, througn a server timeout.

Your program its more power full then CheckFus.
Advanced mode verry great. Verry frustrated, cant use it for now.
hello larioteo are u still working on the new Kies app ?
I have a list of things that I want to do for my flo, and I have no clue where to start.I actually don't even know if this is the correct forum to ask this in, but here goes.
1. I want to be able to use an external WiFi adapter android, and looped Linux images, how can I do this? From everything I've read it seems it starts with including drivers in your kernel for the WiFi adapter. How do I do this? I've read around 10 different tutorials and each are different.
2. I can mount a Linux image inside of android and run it, that's cool, but slow and ineffective. I want to boot into Linux and kiss android goodbye Why do we have to use vnc to connect to the GUI instead of just starting one up? Is it simply because a lack of drivers that connect the GUI to the hardware?. I know that there isn't a version of Linux that will boot on the flo, so why can't I make one? My problem is I don't know where to start. What part of android or Linux has he be coded/compiled differently to work. There are many images that are based on the arm instructions, why is it not possible to just put extract that image and mount it to boot? I believe that a kernel is somewhat of a bridge between the software and firmware, but I don't know what has to change in any of it. I would like to start with a basic non-gui flavor of Linux, then worry about gnome or KDE later.
Any help in the right direction is greatly appreciated. I taught myself JavaScript and HTML back in the 90's just so I could start my own website and say I built it myself. I can learn, I just don't know what I need to learn. Everyone has to start somewhere, I say go big or go home.
