Opening files in the rom

Hi,

I am trying to look at the code in default.hv in the rom.

I'm running vista 64 bit.

What software would allow me read this type of file.

What other software would be useful to look at dll or xaml files and other files in this rom?

I have booff.exe (is there one that is in english?) as well as xipport

Thanks

If it's .net DLL, you can use .net reflector

if it's managed, than you can disassembler it (to get machine code)

It's blatantly obvious that those are just test/debug tools and weren't ever meant to be seen by anyone outside of Microsoft.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] darrengladysz:
and whether or not some Windows Mobile guy got his way and shoved all this old style application/file management stuff in there

I only wish this was the case :) as this would mean that we could unlock this rom and run all the files we want in there ... bypassing windows marketplace etc.

That would have been a much greater feat than unlocking the emulator content!

link for the Unlocked ROM

Here’s the link for the Unlocked ROM and the command line to make it run without Visual Studio.

Just place it inside the C:\Program Files\Microsoft XDE\1.0 folder and run the runme.cmd line then the emulator will start...

Enjoy.

:cool:
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] jgal:
The runme.cmd is referring to an unexisting file XDE.exe. Is it missing or am I doing something wrong? I dont have Visual Studio installed.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] tboy2000:
I did. Still no joy. When I use your shortcut it starts the emulator window, says loading.... and then says can't open the bin file. All i have downloaded is the visual studio 2010 express. Tried it with the preinstalled bin and the unlocked bin. Are there other apps/tools i need to download too or do the VS 2010 express have everything you need?

did you extracted the file on C:\Program Files\Microsoft XDE\1.0 ?

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] moventura:
Mine does the same thing. I've tried reinstalling the tools and using different versions of the bin file.

I'm running Windows 7 x64, but I made sure I modified any shortcuts to point to the x64 program files. Even tried using open with on the bin file and selecting the xde.exe.

It opens the skin, then shuts down.

Hi n3tfusion

1st thing - U can not use full build for debugging any app, some glitch is there n debug mode throughs error just before it starts application on full mode emulator, so this is useless as if now.

2nd thing - U can not use Windows Phone developer Kit on XP Machine bcz MS does not support it. :) So better upgrade your system ;)

Font-Rendering

can any of you testing the emulator tell us how the font rendering works? is it still cleartype or has MS switched to sub-pixel rendering?

I have tried the Zegoe UI font in WM 6.5.x and it looks crappy due to the cleartype rendering. Sub-pixel rendering is used in Zune.

I wish some one can try and extract the font-rendering engine out of the emulator...

We can see how it works on the PC and then move it to mobile.

I still think thats one question of time to have wp7 in HD2. In fact, wm 6.5 is better, but have future?hummm...I hope.

I still use SPB Pocket plus, if you know what i mean:).

just need someone to chek if im doin this right, im not a complete computer nuub or anything just not really up on the phone development. seems that im getting an error when i try to open the emulator image

went to the path c:\Program Files\Microsoft XDE\1.0>XDE.exe /WM70Full.bin

obviously i did "cd c: ......." before i entered that and i just get an error?

error just says error cannot open file wm7full.bin?

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] yoko1324:
W@W - Well done!

I just read this at BGR - this is great!

Microsoft sure seems to have a leaky faucet when it comes to WinMo, that is for suuuuuure. It's entirely possible that they are purposely leaking it so that they get unofficial feedback from real users and the hardcore development community (you all!) :)

Nonetheless, this is a great opportunity. I just fear that anything short of an HD2 will be able to run WinMo 7 (if you get it ready for a ROM flash that is).

Good luck ! This is exciting! :D:eek: :)

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] dcarr622:
While I have absolutely no idea if it's technically possible, having this run on the HD2 would cause me to buy one immediately. While devices like the Rhodium have the RAM requirement, I doubt the CPU could handle it.

If this is technically possible, perhaps a donation fund could be started?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Chainfire:
Probably not possible until we get a

real

WP7S ROM for an HD2-like device.

(Not saying it isn't possible, because I suspect it is, but without an actual ROM, no way)

I think there is an interim htc hd2 wp7s rom...

it makes a lot of sense for a variety of reasons

1. htc hd2 box said free wp7 upgrade

2. I don't know if any of us recall but in december balmer went on the record saying wp7s does run on the hd2 with "minimal lag"

3. Finally, I personally think the device was made for wp7s...

it would make a lot of sense to see a wpy7s leak in the coming months for htc hd2

and I hope someone like con or even da_g grabs it

but if there is a leak in htc, then yes definitely this project is possible!

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] kilrah:
Just drag the .bin image onto XDE.exe, and you're done, much easier.

Not very impressed so far, I already managed to crash it by playing around for 10 mins (text stopped displaying)... so it's not so different from WM6.5 in the end :D

Joke aside, I'm definitely not liking that UI at all.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Noonski:
As an XDA user I am not impressed.

But they are on to something with this interface.

I have never seen anything this straight forward from MS (Europe and Zune don't go hand in hand).

I feel like I can put a WP7S into my moms hands and just walk away, leaving her alone with it.

It's like MS is doing no concessions on whatever came out of user experience testing.

They just did not test with XDA-Developers users :D.

I might hate it as a Windows Mobile Affectionado, but it has some serious potential for the mass market.

Testing the Emulator on a Tablet PC does make it a lot cooler swiping from left to right.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] vangrieg:
They rightly assume that XDA-Developers users will take care of themselves, modding it to their liking one way or another. :) Your mom is more important because she won't do it.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] domineus:
I've been saying that a lot today. Its like I see this nice interface in some menus (zune, message/outlook) but then many elements just look awful...

as I am looking at it honestly its like wow this is interim and I hope there is a lot of polish added before the release because there is way too much

blank space

transition issues (should be a menu element to disable them IMHO)

no real home screen (above the start menu)

List goes on and on

I am actually praying htc does re theme it (I know not going to happen) but I wouldn't be so insulted if they did...because that would be great

I guess ultimately its the user's opinion

I mean do we give up some key features for gaming experience and transition? I'm not sure...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] n3tfusion:
Hi,

1. Yeah i know, it was just for having "fun" with the full emulator on my pc without having to borrow the laptop..

2. I find that's a bad thing.. U know, i've an "old" computer, so i don't want to upgrade now to vista/seven, because don't want to reinstall a lot of apps and everythings on my old stuff, i'd rather prefer to wait for my new computer, one day...

In fact, i was asking only for the emulator, not for the full sdk :)

3. Haha, did you register here only to reply to my post ? I feel proud :D
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ramdroid77:
I installed Windows 7 on my PC at work to try out the SDK. Later I booted back on XP and the emulator doesn't run from there. So I guess there's no way around Vista/Seven if you are interested in the topic.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Audio Oblivion:
yeah this is most likely for debugging and i very much doubt it will make it to final release of the system.

in fact i doubt alot of the underlying stuff (eg/ the task manager in general) will be there in the end also.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] landslide:
If anyone is curious how the emulator was cracked, I compared the dump from the full image to the original and found the following : -

The changes are apparently only in the default.hv (registry)

1. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]

replaced @="Launch55\"=\"dmsrv.exe"

with @=hex:14,00

2. Changed certs...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\Cryptography\Configuration\Local\SSL\00010002

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\Cryptography\Configuration\Local\Default\00010002

3. Removed default key from Black list:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PackageManager\BlackList

@=dword:00000000

4. Changed secure items guids to DWORD 0

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Settings\{05CE2AD4-78B8-4bf0-BC5A-58EE1AD3065D}\SecureItems

@=dword:00000000 (added default key)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Settings\{69DAA7D1-09EA-

4eae-A67E-56E4B0B4CA5B}\SecureItems

@=dword:00000000 (from @=dword:00000020)

Now the full emulator image has what seems to be problems in truncated binary key data. I noticed this problem in a command line registry tool that you guys are using, it seems that it has a fixed buffer of 512 bytes per line/key (so binary keys are truncated to 512 characters). CERegEditor doesn't look like it has this problem.

It trashed: -

Security\ContactsApp\EditCard\Patterns

and the code integrity certificates

I suspect the registry truncation is why things like deployment of silverlight apps is broken.

I might try and fix this, but thought whoever built the full image should know! :)

your problem is caused by the wrong argument in the shortcut you downloaded for the standalone emulator shortcut. just forget about the shortcut you downloaded and create your own, its no biggy.

how would we go about finding what libraries it needs? i'd be surprised if we couldn;t find enough resources to at least call one or two xna functions even if only for a basic test.

i am sure this is a big interest in our roms and dev research. do you think it is even remotely possible to get parts of silverlight and/or xna going in winmo 6.5.x?

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Tribulattifather:
If you want to try the emulation for yourself you need to have a Windows Vista or 7 PC and you should follow these steps:

* Download

this

.

* Download the image from

here

.

* Put the downloaded bin into C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\WindowsPhone\v7.0\Emulation\Images\ .

* Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\ and find the XDE.exe. Right click on it and then select "Create Shortcut" (you may be asked to save that shortcut on the desktop).

* Go to the properties of your new shortcut and modify the Target field as this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\XDE.exe" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\WindowsPhone\v7.0\Emulation\Images\WM70Full.bin"

(Copy the whole thing - meaning copy both ".." ".." and paste it in.)

Note that 64-bit Windows users must select Program Files (x86) folder instead the original Program Files.
