[xda-devs] WP Telnet Daemon & App Repurposing Utility

[popcorn900]

I am curious as to what this really does for our lumia phones? As it is I can deploy unlimited apps so does this somehow forgo the whole deployment thing and allows me to run unsigned app's. I see this as very interesting as it is allowing changes to the reg but will it lead to a unlocked bootloader? I guess we wait and see.
BTW total noob here so troll away.

Realize that for now this will only have an affect on phones equipped with SD Cards. We are basically running this telnet daemon in another app's container. Most high level apps like Preview for Developers use capabilities that happen to have quite a bit of registry access. We are able to have write access to more places that we normally would. This doesn't enable us to run unsigned apps or interop unlock though as that requires an RPC component that runs as SYSTEM. We were able to achieve such a thing with the ATIV S because the built-in hidden registry view in the Diagnostics app happened to be using an RPC component that fit that description and allowed us to enable interop-unlock.

Nokia/Microsoft has been insane on their security so we haven't had the same amount of success that has been seen in other OEMs. This does get us to a place where we can do something EXTRA with these phones though.

Hi @FurballTheGreat

Thanks for your great tool, easy to use.

However, I have a little problem. I can not create a new registry value. In reg > help, there is no dword and/or string option. And when I write the command to, for by example, create a new string value, an error of type "Failed to open registy key 2" is displayed.
Is it the app that I use (extras+info) that is the cause? (as I saw that you use the HTC CSDDiag app I think)

What do you think of that?

Ah you've just missed the option and got the syntax for the set command incorrect. If you take a look at the output of the set command as shown below you will see examples of each of the different value types. Be warned that the examples are in interactive mode to use them straight from the C: prompt you need to put "reg" in front and use the full path to the value.

D:\WPSystem\Apps\{178AC8A1-6519-4A0B-960C-038393741E96}\Install>reg set
SYNTAX: set <value name> <value type> <value>
The following are the value types supported by this command.

dword   - A hex or decimal dword value
   Example: set testvalue dword  1
                        set testvalue dword 0xFFAA3311

qword   - A hex or decimal qword value
   Example: set testvalue qword  1
                        set testvalue qword 0x12345678FFAA3311

string  - A string
   Example: set teststr string  "Hello"

expand  - A string
   Example: set testexp expand  "%PATH%;c:\test"

multi   - One or more string values
   Example: set testmulti multi  "str1" "str2" "str3" "str4"

binary  - The value parameter is a hex or decimal dword value
   Example: set testbin binary "0F A4 5F 12 0A"

I will deploy this with interop capabilities.
