Hello, i would buy lumia 640 ( i always use android) but before i buy it i would know somethings :
1) can someone explane me better about how to install android/ios apps on lumia 640 wp 10 ? I had already surf on the net but i don't understand if i can install apk or i need to change something.
2) I had read that instagram is a beta version on microsoft store, so can i install the android app (apk) on it ? if yes, how i can do ?
3)can i directly install app from play.google.com ?
1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...w-to-install-android-apps-windows-10-t3174629
here you will find everything too know about installing A-app's on a lumia.
2) installing yes, i am not 100% sure if it will work for the 100%, howto: read 1.
3) nope, only manual installation/sideloading for the A-app's
Thanks for the reply.
In the link that you posted lumia 640 is not present on the list of supported device, then i can't use it. Do you know if it will support 640 ?
the developer of the tool says that it can damage the phone but it doesn't be 100% safe considering that it's implemented by windows 10 ? Or we will wait an official tool by microsoft ?

Hi guys,
I'm new xda forum member...
So I'm very sorry if this is a stupid question but I'd like to flash my omnia7 unbranded using one of the latest Mi7Roms cooked with TANGO.
In different posts I see that there are several release of these roms.
In this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782388 mirolg released 3 roms called NOKIA Edition.
I thin that I have to decide between:
- mi7ROM_v2.1 NOKIA edition OS8773_ root manager.zip
- mi7ROM_v2.1 NOKIA edition OS8773_Basis Skin_root manager.zip
But I'd like to know what Nokia Edition means? My device after flashing will appear as a nokia device automatically or is there something to do after flashing rom?
Samsung marketplace will be available or not?
Are there other roms that I can use to get my omnia7 fully unlocked?
I also see in the previous mentioned post that to install some Nokia Apps or some themes on the device we must use the cab sender method instead of standard XAP.
Is it right?
What is the difference between cab sender and xap?
Best Regards

Nokia Edition means that you can flowlessly install the nokia apps from the marketplace nokia section, before mirolg released this the apps had to be cracked and sideloaded to run on non-nokia phones. After flashing your phone will automaticly "think" it's a nokia lumia 800. For accessing Samsung marketplace you simply have to change the marketplace using some app like MarketplaceConfig or wphTweaks or anything similar, one of them is already installed after flashing.
Some Nokia apps use editional code libraries that are not included in Samsungs windoes phone releases, so you can install them with a cab file. A cab file is actually an update file, just like the ones that zune installs to your phone when you get an official update. A XAP file is a normal application file that can be installed AND uninstalled, while after installing a cab-file the only possibility to remove it again is restoring a backup or flashing a new ROM.
The decision between the two ROMs is simply a question of looks, one comes in standard metro/windows 8 style look, the other one has some changed icons.
I hope I did answer your questions,

Great answer..
thank you so much...
I will flash my Omnia as soon as possible because chewron labs token are expired. :fingers-crossed:
Another question if you know the answer...
After flashing my omnia with custom rom, does syncronization with zune still works or no (file sync and multimedia content)?
Obviously updates will not work.

Android Lag Project Error
I tried to change my Galaxy S2's IMEI using ALP but it does not recognize my mobile and gives "list index out of bounds (0)" error
can u plz help how to fix it?

Reason for that is that this program (ALP) nearly only supports IMEI´s changes for Mediatek phones. And the S2 does not have a mediatek chipset. See the developers manual:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8L36-jO45mmN0ZwOGNBOWpqcWs/edit
page 5: IMEI
IMEI number of only Mediatek phones can be changed with ALP. According to feedbacks
received, the result cannot be achieved with all types of phones but is worth trying.

actually ,
---> almost lumia which have 1GB or more ram is running on windows mobile 10. so,its easy to intrope by intrope tool.

--->but if u dont need to to boot unlock then you can use this method ..its easy but lts lengthy. so most of them use WPI....
amd also its a good tool..i also used that to introp unlock....but i posted this because it can helpful to someone.

First....
Don't rename apps>appsxx...and open wmmanifest.xml....n u can see its not encoded.....
After renaming its encoded....
So you have to past vcreg to that folder without rename this folder ...
If you rename then its always show loading.....bcz you put file don't decode because it actually not encoded......

I have followed your instructions to the letter, but setting region, phone language and speech language is not enough.
I think that phone model & country variant might be responsible for the problem. I have 640XL RM-1067 059X1H4 country variant.
OS is window phone 8.1 update2 , latest for the 640XL.
What phone are you using? Model, country variant and operating system version?
I need help or some one can point me to the right direction.
One of my employee give me Nokia lumia 1520 window 8.1 he ask me If I can put Androids app to this phone. I never root this type of phone before ( only Samsung phone). Can some one tell me what I need to download or send me a link what steps I need to do in order to root and install android apps on this phone if is possible.
thanks in advance.
No dude. You cant install Android on Windows Phone. You need to buy Android Phones for that. In earlier versions of Wp10 it was possible but not now

Something close is possible, You can install Appx File.... It's the Universal Apps : there might be some that have be converted from android to Windows phone.. Just google Appx Downloads and see if you can find something he wanted. If so, that is what is possible. The previous : A Older version of Windows on the phone had a special file/command, whatever you wish to call it. """Bash""". It allowed Linux to run on windows. Sadly they removed this, it would give programmers to do things Microsoft did not want to happen.

I think what you meant was sideloading apk using adb in W10 build 10149 . The Exploit which allowed more or less sandboxing of Android app. It Ran the basic Android Apps which didnt have much dependency on Google Play services and more in use by Project Astoria.That means if an android app that required the GMaps plug-in would crash in W10M. Well that's basically not possible now as they removed the Linux Subsytem. You cant install Android Apps now on Windows 10 (btw Nowadays which dev is spending time on Lumia devices? ) I dont think there would be more development of Windows 10 mobile in future as they have shown that Full blown Windows 10 would soon run on ARM devices which has SD835 or more( Just think SD835+6GB RAM+LQS)That would be amazing. But Microsoft Doesnt have the Required no. of Apps in store (Admitting, UWP was not a great success) and enough market share. But dev's like @feherneoh and @banmeifyouwant have done great thing in porting Android to SG Lumias. :cyclops:
feherneoh said:
SD835 might be a great SoC, but we'll have to wait and see. But that will give us x86 Windows apps, not Android
Yeah, there is the 52X port, but note that we have no connectivity at all....

Atleast if the perfomence if fine on SD835 soc , I Mean more than 2.5Ghz and enough page memory, I Think running or emulating Android apps would be smooth.Moreover if its full fledged Win10 the bootloader stuff Etc. would be easier to unlock and build Android for that. Yeah as you said we have to wait and see.
Yeah, Connectivity is major barrier on L52X Android Ports. If you guys could solve that, L52X Android port would the topic of debate and hopefully open the doors for future development. Good luck with connectivity though. Anyway you guys have done a great work on dead Lumias
