Lumia 630 - 512 MB - Android Apps - Windows 10, 8, 7, XP etc.

I have unlocked ( n/w and root access) Lumia 630 ( 512 MB ) RAM. I really would like to install Android apps, i finally gave up after trying for 5 times. I went through many posts but couldn't find anything that would directly help with my Lumia 630. Here is what i have done so far
i) Did factory reset, updated to Windows 8 , got it unlocked and then updated to Windows 10 10166 version using windows insider. I still get error code 14.
I read somewhere i have to edit registry key entrees, can someone please provide actual location of the key?
I think it will help many other also, so please if you were successfully able to install android apps on windows Nokia phone please let us know how you did.
Thanks in advance

In each thread related to Astoria there is at least a post talking about running it on 512MB devices so if you would have done search with something like "512MB" in any of those threads you would have found out that there is absolutely no way to make it run on these devices right now.

[Q] Simple Instructions Please - Confused!

Hi,
After reading many many threads & watching dozens of videos, & downloading & trying loads of files I still can not get my HTC HD2 to multi-boot ,
The only result so far is to get it to reboot to a lot of minuscule text , way too small to read.
I would like to use the latest android gingerbread & linux ( & maybe xp ?) etc without screwing up / overwriting the windows 6.5 mobile. (it is my primary phone / pda but can not get software for some tasks these days )
Phone is the 512 flash version
Please can someone post simple precise step by step instructions to do the above, including the files needed & how to recover from snafu's.
Many thanks in advance.

Extremely simple. Make sure you have the latest stock ROM 3.14 or a custom ROM, but you must have a .50 Radio. Download Android SD Rom. Place the Android folder on the SD card. Run clrcad and haret. Success.
Thank You, please can someone post links to the exact files required ?
Thanks again
M
So you have still WinMo6.5 on NAND with default loader or you have changed loader already (MAGLDR, cLK)?
What radio do you have? It´s written on boot - those red signs on low left corner. You must have 2.*.50.* one.

No 'exact files required' exist, just find a ROM, download it, place the Android folder on the root of your SD card and enjoy.
Thanks for the replies,
ok, more info;

Thanks, sorry to point this out but "download a file & use it" is not too helpful ( WHICH files & FROM WHERE? & in What ORDER ?) - have downloaded lots of files & used them , only succeeded in B**ring the phone to the point of a factory reset & many many crashes.
Sorry about this but I am not an experienced phone hacker/ modifier , just need something that works & works well - any help is appreciated
Many Thanks in Advance

OK, you have bad radio version. You have to chnage it to 2.x.50.x (you have 51 actually). Follow this guide to change radio - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881958 It´s step A. When you follow this guide step by step, you should make it work easily

Yes, do that, or, much less riskily (not involving HSPL or anything along those lines) download the Official Stock ROM 3.14 from the HTC website and flash this. There are full guides on the HTC website. This will give you the correct radio.
@ OP, Download the files and use it is as simple as it gets, all you need to do is download the ROM from the ROM thread (the files will have the same name as the ROM title, choose the one which DOES NOT say 'Magldr' as this is for a different bootloader), place the Android folder on SD card and then run Clrcad and Haret. If you cannot understand this, I am unable to help you.
Many thanks again for the replies,
Upgraded the htc ROM , now can boot both Ubuntu & Android from windows
But...
started installing apps to the android & soon ran out of space
One of the threads recommended re-sizing the data.img BUT when I did that & installed the bigger file, apps market crashes , (as sometimes does the loader)
So great to have android but not so good if it does not have the required space.
ALSO
can not see the phone from either my windows or Linux computer EXCEPT when running windows - neither the htc or windows sync programs see it nor does the file system on linux
Any thoughts on the above please?
Many thanks in advance

Seems odd, I never had any of those issues? Try a different ROM maybe. What ROM have you tried?

[Expired]Get WP 10 for every Windows Phone and everyone with 3 easy steps

-------------------------------------
This method doesn't work any more on the latest version of Windows Insider app, Microsoft has fixed the vulnerability.
-------------------------------------
I post this method several hours after the release of Windows 10 for phone.
It original wrote in Chinese, I decided not to post on XDA, because I'm lazy to translate, I posted it on Chinese WP forum WPXAP.com and wish someone will translate it.
Today I noticed that there only a complicated method was posted here, so finally I decided to post an English version of my method.
What you need to do is: Download a file, Set a proxy and Get update.
No PC needed, you can done it within 2 minutes.
Details step for noobs (Read notice below before you really follow the steps) :
0.Open http://upwp10.chinacloudapp.cn:7777 in IE on your phone (My server is in China, maybe slow)
1.Tap 'Open', then 'Install'
2.Open Wifi Settings
3.Tap Wifi network you connected
4.Turn on Proxy
5.Server: upwp10.chinacloudapp.cn
6.Port: 7777, and save
7.Open Windows Insider
8.Tap 'Get preview builds'
9.Two or three options will show up (1st time you use this method, you'll get only 2 options. Otherwise, you will see 'Restore' additional)
10.Long-press Back key, back to Wifi settings, turn off proxy, then back to Windows Insider
11.Tap 'Insider Fast', then tap 'Accept' (Ignore any Chinese text you see)
12.You will get update
Notice:
Use at your own risk. Strongly recommend you test it on your second phone, do not update your primary phone.
Your token information(not password) of Live ID may be sent to my server automatically by phone, if you don't trust me, don't trust this method.
You can't use my proxy server to access internet, so don't forget to turn it off.
Make Backup, you may need Rest or Reflash your phone.
Huawei and Duo-SIM phone are not supported according to Microsoft.
Your phone model infomation will be changed to Lumia 636 after using this method. If you want to revert to your phone's original model, tap the 3rd option in step 9 and apply.
Check your 'Sys free space' in 'about' in Windows Insider. You need at least 250MB to install WP 10, or you will get 0x80188308 error (Sys free space show in Bytes, you need devide 1024 twice to get MB value. e.g. 556,646,400=530.86MB).
The only way to enlarge 'Sys free space' is Reset Phone or Reflash ROM. Reset only enlarge a little space usually, so I recommend Reflash ROM using Windows Phone Recovery Tool by Microsoft.
You will need about 500-700MB Phone free space (not Sys free space) to download the update, or you'll get 8018830f error.
DO NOT reset your phone if failed to update WP10, Windows Insider will broken(crash), it's a bug of Microsoft.
If you didn't join Preview for Developers program before (Means your OS version is below 341, usually 200), you will get WP8.1/341 update first, reboot twice follow the tips of Windows Insider, finally you'll receive WP10 update.
A lot of users repotered that OS version higher than 341(like 359 on new Lumias), you'll not receive WP10 update.
Damn. I thought I needed more system space, so I did a hard reset. Damn it I'm screwed. Anyway to fix it?
Thank u work grate
Thank u work grate in l 720
Damn it I'm so pissed

If you own a Nokia pone, you can try following this tutorial and reflash with Nokia Care Suite your original, or some generic firmware, if you need help getting your product code, you can get it looking under your battery there should be an RM-XXX code followed by another code of some 17 numbers (not your IMEI) and then you put on the "Data PAckage Manager" your Product Type (RM-SOMETHING) and your Product Code that are the first 7 numbers from that long code... Hope this helps to you
Help me :c

Reker,
I couldn't understand this part. I need to hard reset my phone via Windows Phone Recovery Tool, but I can't do it if i fail to update my phone to WP10? And my Windows Insider app will break?
Can you please clarify that part to me and send me some screenshots of your device too?
Thanks
~imatheussm
Factory resetting your phone will break the windows insider app, as per Reker's instructions. Reflashing your ROM is the only way to increase your system space if you're below the minimum required system space. It's a pain in the ass, another step to make you think twice about it.
So, has anyone tried this on a Lumia 521?
If not I will try it.
EDIT: Not enough System free space, about 124MB.
EDIT #2: Trying a clean flash of the ROM, as suggested.
Sent from my One S
So far so good, will post when install of Windows 10 is completed.

Nice tip, but when I want go back to my original settings:
Your phone model infomation will be changed to Lumia 636 after using this method. If you want to change it back, tap the 3rd option in step 9.

Changed my settings to 1040_1021 (for Lumia 730). I have Lumia 930 RM-1045. How to change it to original ?

Changing back means having the registry information back as your phone originally had? the manufacturermodelname: RM-1045_1006 for eg. instead of the information this patch is applying.
Work with Lumia 920? If i do this how to back to 8.1?

Work. And you can go back with Lumia Software Recovery Tool or Nokia Care Suite.
And the Software Recovery tool back to 920 firmware not 636?
Windows Phone Recovery Tool will 100% return your phone to the correct OS
I had mine set to the L635, used the Windows Phone Recovery Tool and it recovered my phone back to the L625 100% working as it should
Some information is incorrect in the OP of this thread. You don't need at least 700 Mb, you only need at least 510-520mb for the wp10 update to install.
Also, as a reminder to users. When you set a phonemanufacturername, the mobile operator that the phone model appears on MUST ALSO match for you to receive the updates
Thanks loads. This worked perfectly on my Lumia 1320. Far simpler than that other method posted. This is in desperate need of a sticky.
I have followed the steps to the dot.. but my 930 keeps rebooting and receiving nothing.. I turn off the proxy, tap Insider (Fast).. I get "configuring your device..." screen, ajfnajksnfk in chinese, tap accept.. your device will reboot and so far it has rebooted 5 times, but no update yet.. what am I doing wrong?

Same to me
Now lets suppose, I successfully get W10 without resetting my phone. Will my 920 be known as 635 forever or will it get the right 920 software once W10 preview will be available for every phone??
Will I be forced to do the rollback to WP8.1???
Thanks!

Your tutorial worked for my Lumia 520 (I seem to be the only person reporting on Lumia 520 and Windows Phone 10 and whether it works or not).
My problem though is that my sys free space is always around 160 mb even though I've reset my phone from settings.
How do I really reset it so I would have 300 mb free?
Am I supposed to not tick automatically update apps after I reset the phone and set it up again?
I was running the very latest windows phone 8.1 through the insider preview app.
Is it possible that that very latest version (whatever it was) takes up that much space of the os partition?
I'm currently trying to install WP10 with 160 mb free and will report back if it works.
I also forgot to put the phone in airplane mode during the tutorial, but it still worked, I was still able to put myself on the fast track to updates.
Now the only question is if it will actually work.
At the moment it found some update and it is downloading it, but I don't know what update os version it is, I will report.
Thanks for this nice tutorial, it would be more helpful though if it would be better worded, more complete and better formatted.
Thanks.
thank you so much bro
i didnt get that update completely an error occured while downloading something like 8xxxxxx so now i am starting those steps from the begining untill get w10...... i dont think even lumia 520 get w10 now this is possible by you thank you thank you so much bro.........................................
Windows phone 10 on Nokia Lumia 520
So, everything went fine, windows phone 10 appeared as an update in check for updates after I put myself on the fast track for builds following your tutorial, the phone rebooted to install the update but failed, probably because my system partition only had 160 mb free, and so, I got an error number 0x80188308 saying:
Can't install update
Unfortunately, we weren't able to install the update. Wait a while, then try again. (0x80188308)
After googling the error, it is indeed because I do not have enough space to install the update.
I will try the windows phone recovery tool to free up more space.
---------- Post added at 02:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 PM ----------
Unfortunately I ended up with a bricked Lumia 520 after trying to restore my windows 8.1 preview developer 520 to stock firmware by using the Windows Phone Recovery Tool.
I didn't even get to install WP10 and it got bricked.
Here is a thread describing the exact problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/help/help-bricked-lumia-520-t3033867
I haven't found a solution yet.
It's the dreaded QHUSB_DLOAD problem.
My phone is now bricked!
Beware!!!
Just as an added FYI, a Windows 8 PC isn't necessary to do this. I did it from an old lappy running Windows 7.
Had a few complications after the update.
Lock screen wouldn't let me punch in the pin at times.
Couldn't create or alter folders.
Camera wouldn't start at times.
Some others I forgot to mention. A factory reset after the update fixed the folders and camera and the lock screen doesn't lock up as much. Also, under extras+info, the banner for Lumia Denim is gone. Overall, I'm happy with Windows 10. Seems stable enough to use as a daily driver, at least in my eyes. Wish I could thank ya again because your guide also showed me how to get xaps on my phone which I never cared to even try, before lol.

Lock screen wouldn't let me punch in the pin at times.
Couldn't create or alter folders.
Camera wouldn't start at times.
Some others I forgot to mention. A factory reset after the update fixed the folders and camera and the lock screen doesn't lock up as much. Also, under extras+info, the banner for Lumia Denim is gone. Overall, I'm happy with Windows 10. Seems stable enough to use as a daily driver, at least in my eyes. Wish I could thank ya again because your guide also showed me how to get xaps on my phone which I never cared to even try, before lol.

windows 7 is enough for this tutorial ,but sdk lite tool need .net 4.5.1 ,which comes with windows 8,
i preparing updatying tutorial to vanish all errors and some information on wp 10 preview features,stay tuned,you get t denim back if you rename rm-xxx but it stop insider for further updates
Microsoft recovery tool will replace already installed ROM, and work for onetime refurbish
using Nokia Care Suite and your downloaded ROM ,you can flash number of times if something went wrong.
Don't Restore Backup while you first installed wp 10 update and at the first time login ,it asked for restore ,skip that step
some users bricked at this stage, after complete installation you can try reset and second time you can restore

So, everything went fine, windows phone 10 appeared as an update in check for updates after I put myself on the fast track for builds following your tutorial, the phone rebooted to install the update but failed, probably because my system partition only had 160 mb free, and so, I got an error number 0x80188308 saying:
Can't install update
Unfortunately, we weren't able to install the update. Wait a while, then try again. (0x80188308)
After googling the error, it is indeed because I do not have enough space to install the update.
I will try the windows phone recovery tool to free up more space.

Unfortunately I ended up with a bricked Lumia 520 after trying to restore my windows 8.1 preview developer 520 to stock firmware by using the Windows Phone Recovery Tool.
I didn't even get to install WP10 and it got bricked.
Here is a thread describing the exact problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/help/help-bricked-lumia-520-t3033867
I haven't found a solution yet.
It's the dreaded QHUSB_DLOAD problem.
My phone is now bricked!
Beware!!!

[TUT][ATIV SE] - How To Flash Windows Phone 8.0 GDR3 with Windows

With many thanks to @TaylorofCanada for acquiring and sharing this ROM, I would like to share with you a method to downgrade a Samsung ATIV SE to Windows Phone 8.0 GDR3. This method can be used to completely remove the Preview for Developers configuration from your device. This method wipes all of your data, and you cannot restore 8.1 backups on 8.0; if you are not experiencing significant issues with the current preview release, it may be ideal to wait patiently until another PFD update is pushed to this device. Another reason to flash 8.0 would be to take the OTA updates to 8.1 when they are released, in the event that the updates (or at least the firmware update) are not initially available to users with PFD installed (and you grow impatient). I have compiled a .zip file which contains everything that is necessary for downgrading your device. The .zip contains a README.txt file which contains detailed instructions on following the correct process; read it carefully and completely before attempting to follow.
If this method has brought you enough relief to feel like making a donation, I would suggest you donate to @TaylorofCanada. Without his release, this would not be possible, especially with such ease:

[URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/development/taylors-super-rom-tool-dump-sgh-t899m-t3037789"]Taylor's Super ROM and Tool Dump![/URL]
I have created a thread for discussion of development with this device, so if you have an ATIV SE and you're into this kind of stuff, take a gander over yonder:
Code:
[URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/development/research-reference-samsung-ativ-se-sm-t3044123"]Samsung ATIV SE (SM-W750V) - Research and Development Hub[/URL]
Please understand that following this tutorial may permanently brick your device or make it unusable in another way, even if you follow it correctly. It probably voids your warranty, as well. If this concerns you and/or you do not have a second device to use in the event of a mishap, I would suggest closing this page now. Following this process is of your own accord, and I will not be held responsible for any form of damage, losses, or anything else you may experience from proceeding. This phone has limited availability due to its Verizon-exclusive release, and as a result, there is minimal public research and development for it. I cannot guarantee that there will ever be a consumer-friendly way to de-brick your device in the future other than this, which can only do so much, so please proceed with caution:

Did you follow this tutorial when installing the drivers?
Code:

Also, download mode on this phone is Vol Up + Home.
Yes the unsigned drivers are installed ok. i have two laptops one win 10 64 bit and the other i put a fresh copy of win 7 32 bit on just to compare. both act like they see the phone but do nothing when it gets plugged in.
On Both systems the phone shows up as Samsung Windows 8 Phone , under universal serial bus controllers

Post a picture of the phone in download mode, i wanna make sure you're at the right mode.
EDIT: I saw your other post. The lightning bolt is incorrect. You need to hold both Volume Up AND the windows/home button
Ok did not know the home button was the windows key now I do that it comes up into download mode and I get normal operation I he it saying every thing is fine . How long should it take once I hit start ?

Any chance of being able to flush the ativ se with the ativ s ROM? I am in UK, want to buy the ativ se from USA but if its not working correctly or something it would be nice to know that I could use the ativ s rom UK and be done with it.
I already own the ativ s its been 3 years now, but its time to let it rest, plus I cracked the screen.
Thanks in advance people and thanks for the hard work on setting ROMs and everything.
Also a quick one. Is Samsung backing away from the ativ phones? I love windows phones but Microsoft etc are not quite the same as my trustworthy ativ s. Screen is not gorilla so it feels cheap etc.

No, it won't run a rom for a different device. Why do you need it to run an Ativ S rom? If the problem is setting it up for a different carrier, you can adjust that through the registry, as long as the phone's hardware supports your carrier.

Is not only the carrier i am worried. So since my Ativ S works perfectly fine (to what i need it to do) i thought if something goes wrong with the SE i could use the S ROM and be fine.
Oh well. i guess we will see???
I am using Ativ SE in India (got it from US) and it works flawlessly.. I am sure it would work on any GSM without any issues.. Worst case you may have some challenges in setting up APN but for that you don't need to port Ativ S ROM.. There are multiple tweaks which will take care of such issues

New Method : How To Install Windows 10 for Phone in any unsupported Lumia device

Thread is closed now.
Hi all. I want to inform to you. Don't do It again. Thread now IS CLOSED.

You can get Windows 10 on your Lumia as normally and easier. How?
- Just install Windows Insider app > then pick your update > done.
Thx.
Not actually a NEW way , I think ...
But still helpful .

No work with Lumia 1520 Denim

We know Windows Insider getting new update(v1.2.217.1) and come with blocking any possibility to get windows 10 for phone with non-supported device
but i found new way to install Windows 10 fo Phone for any non-supported phone (for all Lumia’s with SDCard enable).
Ok, let’s do it!
Please: DO WITH YOUR OWN RISK!!!
***Requirement***
– Windows Phone 8.1 (Denim or 8.10.14219.xxx is recomended)
– You must have preview for developers installed before to continue with these steps. (Download Preview for Developer from store)
– Have more 300MB free space of Sys Space
If you not have enought space, Flash your phone with Nokia Care Suite of Lumia Software Recovery Tools (you can check here http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/general/how-to-flash-nokia-care-suite-5-t3044200 )
– Internet connection and WiFi
// Hack Your Phone!
Download Hack Tools.zip here
www.4shared.com/zip/9WPofdrGba/Hack_Tools__WP81_.html or see attachments
1. Deploy Custom_WPSystem.xap tool
2. In Hack Tool.zip, the Custom_PfD.xap file, save/place it in sd card.(just place, don’t deploy it!)
3.Now open Custom_WPSystem.xap tool. At startup you can see “SD Card permissions” as red color. Now click that , browse and select SDcard (just SDCard!) to apply permissions.
4.Now you can see “SD Card Permissions” as green color.
5.After changing SD Card permissions click on browse xap button.
6.Browse and select Custom_pfd.xap from SD card and click Apply XAP Button.
7.After successfully applying custom_pfd tool to preview for developers goto Preview for Developers apps.
8.Now your phone is hacked and you can edit registry of your WP8.1.
// Change the registry key
9.Browse to HKLM\SYSTEM\Platform\DeviceTargettingInfo | you will see green bar as “You can edit here!”
10.Change these values of some this key.
– Change PhoneFirmwareRevision from default to ->>02055.00000.14511.22002 and click the write button.
– Change PhoneManufacturerModelName from default to ->> RM-984_1006 and click the write button.
– Change PhoneOperatorName from default to ->> 00-IN and click the write button.
Thanks for djamol about the WP8.1 Hacking
// Here is the trick!
11. Then, go to windows insider app and Tap “Get preview build”
if you can’t see any build available for your phone, try to “open windows insider then select sign in with different account > Sign in with Microsoft Account. After that login back with same windows insider account” and then choose the build what you want, you can select “Insider Fast” or “Insider Slow” about what you want to try.
12. Download the update using WiFi!
Don't forget to follow my Twitter @T4ufik_Hidayat
Sorry for my bad English
Tested on my Lumia 520 and it's working

Especially that your tutorial contains errors (such as 00-IN is wrong => 000-IN)

Worked with tinkering. MobileOperatorName or PhoneOperatorName : 000-IN ----->is the new registry edit.
Insider app must be installed on phone,
preview for developers app must be installed to SD CARD
Update worked on HTC8s (RIO) currently downloading to device as we speak...

lumia 810 here, everything went well until the phone restarted prior to install. After about 30min of spinning wheels, it returned the 80188308 error.
it was 8.1 preview for developers in factory reset only, will try from factory firm wp8.
Useless to try. Now, when I open windows insider and log in my ms account, the app crashes and exit.
I need this.
It's usefull. I need this. Thank you!

it's over 4gb.
At first I was able to log in the insider then get the update, though, after downloading and half an hour of spinning wheels, I was getting an 08xxxx error whitch was common on early updates of wp8.1 due to lack of space. So I cleaned up the phone to factory specs. Now, I'm not able to log in the innsider app, as when I input username and password, the app craches. Even if there's no tweak at all.

Sys space not same with phone memory (internal). Again, it will be not affected by factory reset. You must re-flash your device with Nokia Care Suite (first point in the Top thread).
The Windows Insider force close because the update faild and no another way to fixing it without Flash your device using Nokia Care Suite
Don´t work
It don´t work with my Lumia 625. It come the Error
" the operation didn´t complete successfully...
Maybe the app can´t get permissions or
there´s some problems during extracting
files.
Try to:
>"SD Card permissions" button is GREEN
>Apps installed on the SD cards are
CLOSED
>This app is installed on the INTERNAL
MEMORY "."
When I click OK it come the second error:
"Could not find a part of the path 'D:
