[PROJECT]Digging into WP8 Emulator

---

Hello XDA members!
I installed the leaked WinPho 8 SDK, and (as OndraSter said in an another topic) the ROM images are VHD files.
Currently, I can only open and mount Flash.vhd. The other 3 is not valid VHD.
I have found lots of REG files inside this and will try to unlock, but there is a tons of reg.

Found changes from 7.5:

• There will be new ring- and alert tones
• Power Point Presentations can be view in Portrait mode
• Windows Live renamed to Microsoft account in account manager
• If you set password you:
  • dont get a new "window" to set the password, just expand screen downwards
  • you can show the typed caracters

Charging while turned off?

I found some interesting files in boot partition:

• battery_100.bmpx
• battery_255.bmpx
• battery_500.bmpx
• battery_755.bmpx
• battery_1000.bmpx
• battery_charge_normall.bmpx
• battery_errorr.bmpx
• battery_inside_empty.bmpx
• battery_plug_100.bmpx
• battery_plug_255.bmpx
• battery_plug_500.bmpx
• battery_plug_755.bmpx
• battery_plug_1000.bmpx
• ffuloader.bmpx
• mobilestartup.exe
• pluggedin_battery_loww.bmpx
• resetphone.bmpx
• resetphone.exe
• unplugged_battery_loww.bmpx

I live in a strong suspicion that new Windows Phone 8 devices can be charge without booting complete OS (becouse of EFI, maybe).
I cannot open bmpx files, becouse I could not find any program to do this.

They are actually valid, those are differencing disks images and Flash.vhd is a parent for them.

What's your host OS? It works fine with Hyper-V on Windows 8 RP x64

Hi using Windows 7 for host and runs vhd-s in virtual pc 2007.

I confirm all vhd works.

Can you share how exactly you did the setup

Sorry for that trouble. I can confirm ONLY that vhd-s are okay. So I can mount it. But I don't think they are usable with virtual pc
