Hacker runs WinPE with Windows 10 ARM image on a Lumia Windows Phone



Windows 10 on ARM
Earlier this week,Windows Phone Internals 2.3 became available for download, allowing any non-technical user with a Lumia handset root the device. The tool basically allows you to bypass the SecureBoot on all Lumia phones after successfully unlocking the bootloader.

Windows Phone hacker Gustave M has now managed to run Windows PE with Windows 10 Build 17061 ARM32 image on a Lumia 830. With help of Windows Phone Internals, Lumia phones can boot Windows PE (WinPE) with Windows 10 ARM images.
Microsoft recently teamed up with Qualcomm to work on ‘  Windows 10 ARM project', while initially, everyone thought it would replace Windows 10 Mobile operating system with a new interface similar to of Windows 10 desktop. Microsoft’s Joe Belfiore has however confirmed that the full version of Windows 10 ARM won’t be coming to the Windows Phones.


“The Windows 10 on ARM effort is about enabling the PC experience on devices that are built on ARM so that they’re connected all the time and have great battery life. So the experience is a desktop PC experience, it’s not a phone-like experience. For phone-like experiences on ARM, we have Windows 10 Mobile. What Windows 10 on ARM is, is a desktop-like experience so that you get the battery life that ARM processors tend to have,” Belfiore explained why full Windows 10 won’t arrive on smartphone.






Microsoft is working on a new mobile device with Windows Core OS, the project is supposed to introduce the same interface across phones, tablets and PCs. While Windows 10 Mobile is dead, the company is still committed to the idea of ‘Windows 10 on Mobile’.
Windows Phone Internals allows you to enter Mass Storage mode and even install custom ROMs, as it can unlock the hardware of Windows Phones to 100%. Since Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 10 Mobile is dead and it won’t be getting any new features, it makes sense to give your Lumia a new life.

Huawei Employee Reportedly Reveals Android P Name, And It’s Not What You Think

By
It’s that time of the year when the world speculates on which dessert will be used as the name for the next Android version. While there have been several easter eggs and hints about Android P’s official name, there’s no clarity on what it might actually be called. According a report by   Tabeltowo , a Huawei employee might have just leaked the full name of Android P as Android Pistachio. During a live chat with a customer, the Huawei support staff clearly said Android Pistachio in relation to a query about software updates in Poland, as seen in the image below: While simply Pistachio might not make sense to most people, considering the fact that Google is known for naming its Android version after desserts, a previous report might help. Back in February,  Bloomberg had reported  that Android P would be called Android Pistachio Ice Cream which makes more sense than just Pistachio. But we are sure you have other P-themed desserts in mind for...

Massive Apple leak reveals iPhone upgrades

By
VcTech Samsung is known for its products leaking ahead of its official announcement, but Apple not so much. This year, however, things seem a lot different as several leaks have popped up which detail some of the exciting new features that will come with the next generation handsets. As per a new report by  TrendForce , several features about Apple’s upcoming trio of handsets have been revealed, thereby giving us a glimpse into what to expect with the new iPhones. One of the most exciting features of the upcoming OLED models, which have been dubbed the iPhone X Plus and second generation iPhone X, is that they will be compatible with the Apple Pencil.
