I have an htc incredible running skyraider 4, and would like to ddual boot windows mobile 5 on my phone, or have an emulator to run it.
The reason for this is I have a Rockford fosgate equal/processor that is configured via Bluetooth from a windows mobile, palm, or XP device via a software app.
I'm still trying to get info from vmware on their mobile virtualization project, and ive found where you can dual boot Droid on an existing Wm phone, but not the other way around.
Or, if someone would know how to see what the app needs to run and was willing to write a emulator/convertor to make it work, I'd be willing to pay for it.
Would like an answer to this

Has anyone found a way to sync the phone on Windows 7? I´ve tried everything possible and "nada"... Anyone?
why just not use a beta OS?
xgm... thats the stupidest response ever. how does a product get tested if people dont test it?
now we know that activesync doesn't work properly and a bug report can be submitted.
Glad I found someone testing windows 7 on XDA! I'm having the same problem, but I hope for you it isn't as bad as it is for me. NONE of my USB ports are working. Have you tried using any other device? My zune won't sync either. I'm hoping that someone with computing intelligence greater than I will be able to tell us why, but for now I'm stuck with no zune and flashing from SD.
Are you guys all in the TAP program? The beta hasn't been released to us lowly testers yet.. If it's anything like the vista beta, don't expect to be able to sync until the equivilant of WMDC comes out.. although I would have thought that would work on winders 7..
It's an extremely interesting problem... when I plug in my zune or phone, it shows up in the safely remove hardware menu, so the computer is recognizing that it is plugged in. However, it isn't charging and it's never recognized in my computer. Another interesting thing is that the first time that I plugged both in after installing the new beta, it installed the new drivers. I just can't figure it out. It's like it wanted to recognize it and it's trying to but it just won't lol. The phone i can deal with since I can just keep popping my SD in the card reader but I really need to update my zune...
For me it's good
Im testing Windows 7 on my laptop (a Macbook), I installed the Windows Mobile Device Center from the CD that came with my Touch Pro and it's working perfectly!
Same here
I cant sync my HD in windows 7. I emailed Paul Thurott in hopes he may know what to do.
Window Mobile Device install but doesn´t detect Touch Pro
Update 3: removed Office 2007 Ultimate installed Enterprise... installing SP1 now to see if it does any justice to the sync..
Update 2: Sync work for Outlook but not for the calender or appointments.
Update: after rebooting... a third time, it worked. I have yet to test snyc with Outlook but the rest seems to work... will drop a note here as soon as I give it a go.
.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
I decided to give the Vistas Mobile Device a go on Windows 7 but no go. It installed but no sync to Touch Pro (Rafael)
.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
windows 7
I was able to flash my rom in widows 7 but still no sync!
My Fuze is syncing fine for me in Windows 7 after installing mobile device center.

Ok I understand windows 7 needs to be tested but you said we know that activesync doesnt work properly, but is xda a windows 7 bug report collector? No. Im sure microsoft is aware that if there are problems with activesync.
When i read the post i figured the guy wants to sync his phone to his PC and the easiest way to not screw anything up is to use a tested working OS?
But yeah youre right, i guess my response was the stupidest ever right?
Windows 7
Is anyone able to get the Touch Pro working with Windows 7? In Device Stage and Windows Mobile Device Center it just won't recognize the phone, says it's unable to get drivers for it.
Anyone got it to work or is it just not Windows 7 compatible yet?
If you're running the 64 bit build, it doesn't come with WMDC. Download it from microsoft's site, install it, and it'll work a treat
No I'm running the 32bit build, but WMDC just won't recognize the phone. If I connect with USB it doesn't recognize it at all and if I connect to it with bluetooth then it wil recognize it as a phone but I can't interact with it because it doesn't know what type of phone it is.
Can't say I have that issue here. Have you filed a bug about it? MS has already responded to several of the bugs I filed yesterday, I wonder if it's a known issue. My fuze works fine in x64 WMDC..
Tried it again after a WMDC reinstall and now it shows, guess it works afterall.
Thanks!
no issues here, yet
The first thing I did after installing Office 2007 on my Win 7 beta was get my phone setup. I'm running 32-bit build, and so far haven't had any issues.
I don't do much software installation via activesync, so haven't tried that, but I am using my computer as a stereo headset, microphone for calls, etc. all through bluetooth.
My phone works in vista sp1 but not 7000 version of win7...oh well, it's a beta ya know
I spent 10 hours configuring it with everything I need for work & I'm going to try it this week. If it bombs, it's just a matter of popping out the HD and popping in my Vista drive. I'm paranoid...got win7 on one HD with all my work stuff, Vista on another drive, and XP on another. Can't afford to be down for a day w/o my lappy.
If I get some time, I'll fool around with the TP/win7 issue on my end.
It connects...I get the connection sound, but that is about it. Also I get the
disconnect tone, but the windows connection program sync thingy won't "see"
the TP.
I have been unable to flash my phone since I upgraded to Windows 7. I've been battling with it for a while now. I've found a post somewhere saying to download the latest Mobile Device Center 6.1 from Microsoft. Even the setup was failing.
Well I finally found the solution:
Run Command Prompt as Administrator and enter this:
reg delete HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SQMClient\Windows\DisabledSessions /va /f
Now Mobile Device Center should run and all should be well.
nice this was one of the things holding me back from installing my beta, might do it this weekend.
Flashing your phones in Windows 7 SHOULDN'T be a problem. Mobile Device Center works for MOST people. I don't know why my installation boinked... but I couldn't find a solution online anywhere.
Perhaps because I upgraded my copy of Vista to Windows 7 (always better to do a fresh install).
Anyway, you shouldn't have any problems flashing with Windows 7... but I have googled some cases where people were having my exact problems with no solution. I posted it here for the record and web presence.
I duno if you're an official tester or a public one, but if you're official, be sure and file a bug on that.. upgrade scenarios are the current major area of focus for the beta team.. im sure they would appreciate knowing about that one.. and vista users would appreciate it working when they upgrade
I already sent a "bug" report in when it didn't work, thanks to the tip about installing the Vista version of the mobile device software it works perfectly now.
I also sent a bug report about fixing it.

Thought it wasn't possible to upgrade with Win 7 beta from vista?
Yea you can upgrade Vista to Windows 7. I know because I did. It took like 4.5 hours though (thank you xbox).
Da_G... I did submit it.
Also about flashing... I couldn't get Mobile Device Center to install the proper driver to flash at first. The driver came up but was an "unknown device".
With the phone disconnected, I put my Fuze in bootloader mode then connected the USB cable. Only then did the wheels start churnin' and Mobile Device Center install the needed drivers to flash my phone.
But all is well now.
try out build 7022...no WMDC issue now...works great
I have no issues with Windows 7 and my phone at all.
How you guys like windows 7 so far? Im hearing good things about it..

Never been happier with anything microsoft has ever made to be honest.
I had this EXACT same problem, remember Da_G. I posted the resolution here in the forums... in the Raphael forums. Do a search for "Player911 Windows 7"
[Updated] I searched for you... it was the first listing:

So I've been doing a lot of looking around and I got a surface w. 8.1 for work as I needed MS Office. The only thing that I would like to be able to do is to MOD it so that I can put Google play on it and run android apps. I see that there is application called BlueStacks an emulator, I downloaded the .exe but the surface gives me the message that it can't run the exe. I went into the device and configured it to all untrusted apps via a YouTube I found and that did not work.
I'm not looking to make major changes to it. I am happy with it but want to add my android app. Can anybody point me in the right direction? Btw I am a complete noob on how to do this.

I use DuOs. Haven't had one issue with it at all. It uses a newer version of android than bluestacks runs everthing like an android tablet would. They give you a free trial soo after that its not free. But i think the trial is like 30 days.
Cool do you have a direct link?
Ya I did some looking up online and it doesn't say a whole lot on where to start and get set up with the 30 day trial and what not. Any suggestions
Here's the link. Like i said, it's a free trial with all the features for 30 days. Then after that its a one time charge. I liked it soo much that I bought it and have been using it for a couple months without issues. Once installed you'll have to setup the android stuff just like its dual booting. You'll have to type in the wifi passwords and select the wifi networks. There's also a box to check in the android settings to give full root access to run android programs that require a rooted device. One thing that i recommend is closing the DuOs program completely when finished. You can switch between windows and android just like using a regular windows program but it doesn't like when windows goes in "sleep" mode while its running. I always close the program when i'm not using it. The app can be ended by entering windows task manager if it ever becomes unstable but i haven't experienced anything other than the waking up from "sleep" mode. I've noticed with several games that my surface running Duos, plays them smoother and more responsive than my Sony Xperia Tab Z. Hope this helps!

Thank you I downloaded the .exe and it will not run on my tablet. There was jail break .bat file that I ran on the surface but how do I check to see if it worked ?

What model surface are you using? Is the os win 8.1? Everything that i've installed on mine installed just like a pc.
windows rt 8.1
32 bit os
arm processor
2gb ram
NVidia tegra 3 quad core cpu 1.30GhZ
The error that I get states that it can't run this app on this PC.

That's your problem there. As I understand it, you cannot install third party apps on the RT version of windows. You will only be able to install apps from the microsoft store.
Damn regretting RT 8.1 more an more everyday
Hey
I'm happy to have the LTE Version of the Shield (EU).
Now it would be very intresting to run a Normal Windows. Which one i don't care.
It would be nice for work cause I we have Professionally surveillance and there all companys say you Need to use Microsoft Internet Explorer to Flash Cameras or Recorders without Errors...
Do you see any way?
-> Tried with Bochs but i'm new on Android World so i'm not good with this.
-> Don't care i understand much things but normaly i'm "at home with Windows Devices".
Would be nice if you can help me.

You will not get any x86 version of Windows to run since the Shield is powered by an ARM processor.

Hey
Yes i know i mean about Emulator like i wrote already Bochs or something. But i didn't found a working Bochs Edition for my Shield.
I Know there are different Archidectures etc. but i like to emulate it. If it's slow i don't care. It just have to work
BTW: For my Skill: I've a MCSE Windows 8.1 and MCSA Windows Server 2012 R2 (actually i'm learning for MCSE)
You can use virtual desktop software like Chrome Remote Desktop or VMware, but Windows can't run on the Shield itself.
There's a very very high chance that there will be an ARM version of win10. They have already announced it. Should be a developer preview online someplace. Doubt it will work straight away though.
There is a also a version of Ubuntu Linux for shield
x86 applications can be run using Eltechs Exagear and wine using Ubuntu on the shield. IE should work. Run over to the thread on running Ubuntu natively using multirom. Must have root and new recovery etc. Is not for the notice.

Worth a quick mention that exagear is 30 bucks. It's the only thing holding me up from trying to get elder scrolls oblivion running on Ubuntu for shield. Any ideas there would be great.
Hi guys
Now it works much better..
But! which Emulator do you know?
-> Bochs don't work.
-> Limbo at last it work. But on Windows 95 -> Win XP it's checking Hardware in a Loop. Win Vista or newer -> Limbo Crash..
Maybe now someone want to help me?

Hello All,
I know this may be a long shot, but at CES this week Samsung announced the new TabPro S running Win10. I got curios and saw my Note Pro with a huge screen and thought... "What if there's a way of getting Win10 running on my NotePro". So here i am, I've spent the better half of the night till morning searching the internet for a blimp of something related and came up with nothing. So im here today to ask:
1. Is it possible to boot Win10 on the NotePro?
2. How can i determine if it can or cannot?
3. Whats needed to make it work?
4. Find the blocks preventing it from working and find a way around it or thru it.
Would be cool to make it dual boot. Have it ask you "Android or Windows?" When it turns on. Lets make this happen!
The desktop version of Windows 10 does not support ARM, so it isn't possible. Windows 10 Mobile is designed for ARM but I would say that there is no way to get that version to boot either. And I don't think there is any reason to even try, as Android is really superior to Win 10 Mobile.
When you say Win10 mobile, do you mean Win10 IoT (Internet of Things)?
I know IoT is compatible with Raspberry Pi 2 and Arduino devices, I wonder if someone works on it, it could be installed on android tablets and phones...
