Hi there,

thank you, this is a great tutorial. But should i download the 32-bit or the 64-bit ubuntu? (because of drivers?)
My windows os is 7 home premium 64-bit. i'm trying it with VirtualBox.

thx.

great

GREAT

the whole deal went without a hitch.. i chose to simply install mint linux onto a seperate partition of my hard drive and i used the 64bit version as theres nothing here that would make any difference to the process.

brilliant tutorial and great rom development - its like a one stop shop to get the lumia to a point where it becomes a decent device

thanks very much indeed.

How to get activation code for Windows Live

How to get activation code for Windows Live
1. Download DPP by ultrashot
2. Create new folder. Then put files: stock.nb and os-new.nb and DppImplant.exe
attachment.php

3. Run DppImpant.exe.
4. Done!

If you have not stock.nb
Make Backup of 9 section:

Code:
sudo dd if=/dev/sd[COLOR="Red"]X[/COLOR]9 of=~/stock.nb
Wher X is drive detected by your Linux
P.S. You must do it before flashing with custom ROM!

I have a Nokia Lumia 800 which is Locked to O2 UK, and I cannot use any Local Sim Cards. Am I in the right Thread ? Can I unlock my Phone to use with any operator and Sim card using this guide?
I dont seem to get this inter-op unlock and Dev unlock Variations.

Thank you !

Sorry but i seriously don't see the need to download a pirated copy of VMWare and use it to run ubuntu. I did all this and it took about an hour to get ubuntu up and running in non gui mode, the GUI mode never worked at all even after an hour.

Just download ubuntu, boot it using a cd or a usb drive and chose "Test before installation" option and you'll boot straight into ubuntu. Use it to unlock your lumia and shut it down. This way you wont have to install ubuntu nor have a separate partition for it. :)

Good guide otherwise, thanks.
