I decided to write this guide because I found difficult to run USPL because the files in USPL folders not work...
The procedure works on Windows 7 and Vista... On XP does not guarantee since I do not use again because in my opinion is outdated...
After this small beginning premise driving:
0 - first if the phone is locked and cannot boot exceptin boot mode, download an official rom, for example
http://rapidshare.com/files/60087606/HTC_P3300_WWE_3.13.405.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship_R.exe
and installing it. After that the phone should start... least to me it worked...
1 - Download the files for USPL.
The first folder http://rapidshare.com/files/284853186/arte_uspl.rar
and the second folder for the no size USPL http://rapidshare.com/files/284853603/arteUSPL-nosize-cmon.rar
2 – Unzip the .exe file of a ship original rom (A link can be found in section 0). Just click with the right to go on "Extract files" and save it on a place easily accessible... For example, the Desktop...
the following operation must be do with phone on wm home screen!!
3 - open the folder of the USPL first file and then go, "start_uspl.exe" after the operations in the DOS window, the phone turn on automatically with a monochrome screen that can be white (as in my case) or other colors ..
4 - Just close it appears ROMUpdateUtility...
5 - Go to the folder extracted from the official rom and replace the file "ruu_signed.nbh" with "RUU_USPL_signed.nbh" found in the first USPL folder...
6 - Join 'ROMUpdateUtility.exe "and do the requested operation...
7 - If the operation is successful at the end of the installation the phone will reboot itself...
8 - Open the second USPL folder that of no size USPL find the file "RUU_Signed.nbh" replaces in the original ROM folder instead of "RUU_USPL_signed.nbh" made in section 5... and let go, "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" and make the required operations as before...
9 - Now you can install the ROM that best suits you...
I hope to be helpful... And sorry for my bad english...

Bye,
Silvio
hey
if u want to try windows 8 without messing ur main os and not have to burn dvd or usb drive this is nice guide to help u
steps to install on VHD
0. u will need few apps
EasyBCD
Gimagex
1. first lets create vhd with "Computer Management" @ Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Administrative Tools, right click on disk management and choose create VHD, create 15gb its enuf for testing, after its mounted format it
2. use Gimagex to apply/deploy the image of windows, install.wim, the windows 8 image is in iso u downloaded, at sources dir
3. with easybcd create new virtual disk entry
that's it
steps to install on HDD a bit difficult
Soon
0. we need few apps
EasyBCD [Optional]
Gimagex
and Windows PE/Setup [any version will help windows vista / 7... ]
we need windows PE so we can boot the system to another OS and be able to move few OS dirs
[needed if u have old OS if not skip to step 2]
1.lets boot the system with windows PE / windows setup of any kinda [6.x] and open CMD.exe with
shift + F10
we need to move few dirs like:
Windows, Program files, ProgramData, Users, Program Files (x86)
Example how to move
Move "Program files" c:\windowsOLD\
after we move all the current OS dirs to windowsOLD lets
2.from windows PE\Setup launch cmd.exe with shift + f10 then run gimagex.exe, deploy the image as we did with VHD [ check step 2 in VHD guide]
[needed if didn't have old OS installed before]
3. now we gonna use windows recovery that with windows setup disk or wim
to recovery the OS if u didnt have any OS before
Tips
1.
u dont need to have windows setup on dvd
u can add boot.wim [that include setup boot] to boot menu with easybcd and then boot to it [much faster booting then dvd]
2.
if u like to change back to ur old OS and dont have to format u just have to do this again but now move the dirs of windows 8 to windows8 dir and move back windowsOLD dir to c:\
Problems ?
if u get problem with winload.exe that not digital signature
overwrite bootmgr and bootmgr.efi in c:\ dir with new version of windows 8 setup disk
i do overwrite bootmgr and bootmgr.efi in the windows dir but the same error is there, what is here false?

I completely understand your guide; howeverm that's probably because I have extensive computer experience. I HIGHLY (and I can't stress this enough) recommend that you rewrite your tutorial; any novice computer user is going to have no idea what you're trying to instruct him/her to do.
Your guide is extremely difficult to read.
It's great that you're sharing your idea with everyone; I'm sure I'm not out of place in saying that everyone around here appreciates it; but I'm sure they would appreciate it a thousand times more if they could follow your guide!
The biggest tip I can give you for guiding someone through anything on a computer is to pretend you're talking to an 80-year-old woman with virtually no experience with computers (such is the literal job of a computer tech).
Again, though, thank you for sharing your idea; it seems like a highly complicated way to avoid a dual-boot, though; however, it is certainly a different method that I had never thought of before, and outside-of-the-box thinking is always welcome here!

thx but can u be more specific about which parts should be more informative
First of all, use this thread at your own risk.
If you decide to give it a try make sure your smartphone has a SD Card slot otherwise this will not work and it's best to use this on a secondary device because there is always a chance that you have a critical bug and a hard reset is necessary to restore your device.
Also 512MB RAM devices are not supported, so only use this tutorial if your device has 1GB or more RAM.
There is already a thread on here from jimmy19990 that explains how to do this but it seems that people with less experience in this department do not understand it completely, so I decided to put all the steps in this thread:
1. (skip this step if you are on Windows Phone 8.1) If you already upgraded to Windows 10 Mobile make sure you go back to Windows Phone 8.1 with "Windows Phone Recovery Tool" or "Lumia Software Recovery Tool" which you can find here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/mobile/support/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA142987
2. Backup your files on your SD Card and format it in Windows Phone 8.1 (settings < storage sense), if you get a message that asks to save new files to the SD Card click no and check in storage sense that new files are all saved to the phone, not the SD Card.
3. After this download and install the "WP8.1 SDK Tools Lite Setup Av1.20" from here:
http://www13.zippyshare.com/v/15281796/file.html
4. With "WP8.1 SDK Tools Lite Setup Av1.20" installed you will have "Windows Phone Developer Registration 8.1" (start menu < Windows Phone SDK 8.1) open this and register as Developer.
5. Go to the app store on your phone and search for "Preview for Developers" and install this app, move it to the SD Card with storage sense (settings < system < storage < phone < apps & games) select the app and tap "Move to SD Card".
6. Now download "CustomWPSystem_0500.xap" from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...p-customwpsystem-patch-xaps-wpsystem-t2975419
7. Connect your phone with a usb cable to your computer.
8. Under "Windows Phone SDK 8.1" is another program called "Windows Phone Application Deployment 8.1", open it and click "Browse", navigate to the "CustomWPSystem_0500.xap" file and click "Deploy", after a while you get a message that it succeeded.
9. Download "CustomPFD_0003.xap" from another thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...xap-custompfd-registry-editor-tweaks-t2981057
and copy "CustomPFD_0003.xap" to the root directory of your SD Card.
10. Take your phone and open "CustomWPSystem", tap "SD Card permissions", click on "sd card" and press the checkmark.
Now tap "Select the XAP" (at the bottom of the page in "CustomWPSystem"), navigate to "sd card", select "CustomPFD_0003.xap" and "Apply XAP".
Wait till you get a message "Operation Completed".
11. Close the "CustomWPSystem" app and open "Preview for Developers" app (icon will be changed), go to HKLM\SYSTEM\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo and change these values (just open for example PhoneSOCVersion, put 8974 in the textfield, press "Write", back button and go to the next one):
For a Full HD (1920x1080) device:
PhoneSOCVersion: 8974
PhoneMobileOperatorName: 000-GB
PhoneManufactorModelName: RM-937_eu_euro1_231
PhoneModelName: Lumia 1520
OR
For a HD (1280x720) or lower resolution* (800x480 / 854x480 / 960x540) device:
PhoneSOCVersion: 8926
PhoneMobileOperatorName: 000-HK
PhoneManufactorModelName: RM-984_1000
PhoneModelName: Lumia 830
*On lower resolution devices the interface will be a bit smaller as normal after the registery edit, but as soon as you complete step 14 your original device info and interface will come back.
12. After you changed your info to one of these devices, go to the app store, search "Windows Insider" app, install it and open it.
13. Sign up for the Fast Ring and check for updates, you will receive a message that "Build 10.0.10536.1004" is available, let it download and install (will take around an hour or more and the device will reboot itself a few times).
14. Once Windows 10 Mobile is installed do a hard reset (settings < system < info < factory settings) and let it format the SD Card also. (this will also take about an hour or more)
15. Now you will have back your original Device Info and in windows < system32 < aow will be the necessary files to run Windows Bridge for Android.
The following steps are to actually install an APK on Windows 10 Mobile:
1. Download Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784
download and install "vcredist_x86.exe" and "vcredist_x64.exe".
2. In this thread you will find the new files for the "WindowsBridge.7z":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...-fix-android-applications-installing-t3202036
Extract "WindowsBridge.7z" and install "IpOverUsbInstaller".
3. Here you will find the installer to deploy the APK's to your device (Download Version 1.3.1 Here / minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Download and install.
4. Turn off your lock screen (settings < personal settings < lock screen), time-out: never.
5. To enable developer mode on the phone and to find it in the network:
First find your ip adress from the phone: settings < network and wireless < wi-fi and press your network, type your ip address in a document.
Then go to settings < update & security < for developers, press "Developer mode" and tap "Yes".
Turn on "Device discovery" and press pair.
6. Open your map "WindowsBridge" from step 2, copy the directory and open an elevated command prompt (run < cmd < right-click < run as administrator).
Type "cd" and paste the directory of the "WindowsBridge" map (example: "cd C:\Users\User\Downloads\WindowsBridge".
After this type "wconnect.exe" and copy paste the ip adress from the document in step 5 and press enter (example: wconnect.exe xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
Enter the pin you see on your phone, wait a while and it will say "connected".
7. Now download the APK you want to test with this link (just search the app in the Google Play Store, copy the link and paste it in the website below):
http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
Cut and paste the app to C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot and copy the directory of this map.
8. Go back to your command prompt type "cd" and paste the directory ("cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot")
9. Type "adb install" and copy and paste the name of your apk with the .apk extension included ("adb install test.apk").
10. Wait a few minutes and there will be a message "Succes", now on the phone press "Abort" and "unpair all", your APK will be installed.
I tested this method with a Lumia 640, used the Lumia 830 device info and it works like a charm.
Thanks to all the threads and websites I mentioned, because all these tools make it possible and easier to run this project.

Not sure about that, but just to be safe, I think you should use info from a compatible device that has the same resolution as yours.

Make sure you have the 1GB RAM version of the lumia 635 because the 512MB version will not work in this stage of the project. (only 1GB devices supported)
If you have the 1GB version, your device is on the supported list so you only have to install W10M (step 12 and 13) and then follow the 10 steps to delpoy an APK to your device.
@IPRJ25 your welcome.

That's indeed interesting, it's not sure yet but I suppose when they have polished the Android subsystem that there is chance that 512MB RAM devices will be supported.

15. Now you will have back your original Device Info and in windows < system32 < aow will be the necessary files to run Windows Bridge for Android.
The following steps are to actually install an APK on Windows 10 Mobile:
1. Download Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784
download and install "vcredist_x86.exe" and "vcredist_x64.exe".
2. In this thread you will find the new files for the "WindowsBridge.7z":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...-fix-android-applications-installing-t3202036
Extract "WindowsBridge.7z" and install "IpOverUsbInstaller".
3. Here you will find the installer to deploy the APK's to your device (Download Version 1.3.1 Here / minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.3.1_setup):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Download and install.
4. Turn off your lock screen (settings < personal settings < lock screen), time-out: never.
5. To enable developer mode on the phone and to find it in the network:
First find your ip adress from the phone: settings < network and wireless < wi-fi and press your network, type your ip address in a document.
Then go to settings < update & security < for developers, press "Developer mode" and tap "Yes".
Turn on "Device discovery" and press pair.
6. Open your map "WindowsBridge" from step 2, copy the directory and open an elevated command prompt (run < cmd < right-click < run as administrator).
Type "cd" and paste the directory of the "WindowsBridge" map (example: "cd C:\Users\User\Downloads\WindowsBridge".
After this type "wconnect.exe" and copy paste the ip adress from the document in step 5 and press enter (example: wconnect.exe xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
Enter the pin you see on your phone, wait a while and it will say "connected".
7. Now download the APK you want to test with this link (just search the app in the Google Play Store, copy the link and paste it in the website below):
http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/
Cut and paste the app to C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot and copy the directory of this map.
8. Go back to your command prompt type "cd" and paste the directory ("cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot")
9. Type "adb install" and copy and paste the name of your apk with the .apk extension included ("adb install test.apk").
10. Wait a few minutes and there will be a message "Succes", now on the phone press "Abort" and "unpair all", your APK will be installed.
I tested this method with a Lumia 640, used the Lumia 830 device info and it works like a charm.
Thanks to all the threads and websites I mentioned, because all these tools make it possible and easier to run this project.

You can try restarting the device this will refresh Astoria and if this does not work, you simply can't run the APK.
The project is still in beta so it takes a while to polish all the bugs out and many APK's won't run and others will run perfectly.

I used Messenger , Clash of Clans , WhatsApp but none of them work
Edit :- Now the Error code 14 is popping up
http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...w-to-install-android-apps-windows-10-t3174629 try this, in the OP look for "C. Errors you might encounter and how to fix them."
Can't seem to get past the connection issues. Trying on Lumia 1520. Keep getting error code 14. what's up with that.
Windows Blue said:
First of all, use this thread at your own risk.
If you decide to give it a try make sure your smartphone has a SD Card slot otherwise this will not work and it's best to use this on a secondary device because there is always a chance that you have a critical bug and a hard reset is necessary to restore your device.
Also 512MB RAM devices are not supported, so only use this tutorial if your device has 1GB or more RAM.

Thanks for the post I'm wondering if this hard work (downgrading to 8.1, registry changes, again updating to 10 etc) really worth, most of apps are not working or working to some extent but missing some important functionality. Its good for learning purpose anyway.

In some countries the project is not supported, I guess this has something to do with both devices because they are on the support list and they should work without doing any registry edits.
