This the thread for Windows 10 Mobile with the recent Secure Boot exploit ;)
Windows Phone 8.1 works already, by the way.
The Secure Boot unlock is needed to use this.

Fantastic job!

I still have a Surface RT here. Will wait till you get Win10 on it and then give it a go.

I still wonder if I should publish the exploit or just disk images & screenshots

Personally I don't think it's great form to post just disk images and screenshots to a community focused site such as this. We all draw on the experience of others here and I think it reasonable to expect this to be reciprocated with discoveries as they're found allowing others to build on your work.

Sorry for the inevitable stupid question :D, but I assume for anyone else to make use of this achievement that they would need the exploit and the disk images? Or would the disk images work without the exploit now that they have been created?

The trouble with waiting is that it would be an almost never ending game, I still have my Surface 1 & 2 but i'm about to order a Surface 3. If I can get Windows 10 Mobile on one of them I may hold off buying.

Good Work!

Without the exploit, I think that it will be possible with a big hack(everything bootcritical -> IoT, mobile for the rest) Starting without that issue since the 1st step is much better

    Amazing work, would there be a chance it would apply to Surface 2 as well at some point?
    it applies for any Windows RT device

    For you guys looking for a proof screenshot, here's my Surface RT running IoT. Its runs directly from the USB as I still don't know how to install the firmware directly. It takes quite a time to load the first time. and not so much after that. I have no way to connect the surface to the Net, try using different Wi-fi dongle and usb network adapter unsuccessfully. So no way to install any developed IoT app via this way for now!
