@@maximtarna6669 Yes. Or even better you could debloat the Windows 11 you have running. Tiny 11 is not really recommended as a daily driver since you can never know what the developer has packaged in with it. If you debloat it yourself you know what is installed and what not.
@@TechKingdom35 Tiny 11 has recently come under some heat. People have found some kind of sketchy things going on with it. I'd suggest the Ghost Spectre myself. It's lighter than tiny and has it's full source code up all the time and no one has ever found anything wonky with any version of the ghost versions.
Just give it a try as daily driver. I still use it that way. Nothing wrong with it. The absence of apps is actually a big plus, it transforms you into the next gen post-smartphone human.
i really dont understand people still barking about absence of app. 669,000 apps were available in the store. would people install the all 669,000 apps on the small screen? how many of people use those daily? how much time people spend on those 669,000 apps daily?
@@userwest626 deffo remember being happy google finally added maps. Microsoft had their own version but it wasn’t as updated. So probably little details like that where even if real apps or clones were available they weren’t up to date and updates would come after the companies took the time to release windows updates (after other os got an update) or clone apps weren’t up to par. And there’s probably a whole nother argument for people who actually use their pocket pc phones as a computer for business and computer work.
The biggest problem of installing an unsupported OS on Lumia phones, is not that the OS starts and runs as this video proved, but whether the windows 11 Tiny kernel does support and allows the function of typical smatphones components as the camera, the wifi, etc., and these functionalities were not shown to work on this video.
I like that you said that it was powered by the 810 chip and at the same exact time on your always-on display it said 8:10 on the clock, that was satisfying

Yes absolutely. I love this phone. Sadly many of the different projects for it are now down and can't be easily downloaded. I will make a video about it at some point.
The only phone I ever got that actually had dual boot (WP7.8/Android)! Though to be honest none of these options were very good... WP7 had no software and Android was sluggish as hell...

Nice video, but can you install tiny win 11 pro on any old phone even with less ram and rom? I have an old phone that i can use and recently found back. I saw in other videos that they installed it on really old hardware with less than 1gb of ram. Or perhaps that was the tiny win 10 version. For me it just looks like fun to try out. I do not care if i brick the phone. And i need something to see my nas and play music from it on my music system. And yes it is easier to use a win laptop but that is not the point.
Thanks for the comment :) The short answer is no. This sis the oldest phone you can install Windows 10 or 11 on. The reason you see people using tiny 11 on super old devices is the CPU architecture of those devices. They are all X86 (Like a desktop pc). The video here installed it on an ARM device (so a phone). There the requirements are quite different and as far as I know the Lumia 950 from this video is already the absolute low-end.
I freaked out when you said HTC HD1 at first haha + This is a GREAT video, it was so fun too see the process and the end result, you deserve loads more subs :D
If microsoft tries and put more effort into making there own in house arm architecture design and make windows work on it with the drawbacks we are facing right now thay can easily compete with apple in laptop and mobile space
this looks like an exciting Sunday afternoon experiment! The camera of 950XL is outstanding even by today's standards and it probably becomes unusable after the Win 11 installation ? Is a rollback of windows 10 mobile possible once I am done with ?
Yes, it's a fun project. The camera sadly stopps working. But you can go back very easy by flashing the original firmware again. Just make sure that you find the correct one for your phone and region first.
926 If i recall correctly, you still get this on the windows 11 installer if you continue to hit F12 after selecting the USB device, basically it is a sub menu that allows you to select multiple ISOs if you have it set up that way. I think the menu still pops up even if you use the microsoft media creation tool with only the one ISO
I want to get Lumia 950XL, because it can be used as thin client with USB C monitor. I have Dell P2723QE, that supports USB C input, with DP alt mode and 90W PD.
@@arnislacis9064 I did a quick google search and there seem to be some usb c powered mini PCs but they are way more expensive than the Lumia 950XL. What you could do is buy a notebook with usb c power but broken display and use that. Or a single board conputer
SIM Card works, calls also but sms not as far as I know. But the camera is also not working and the battery life as well. So not useful as a main phone
Really cool video but I wouldn't recommend downloading a tiny 11 ISO (they are often very sketchy) and its really simple to make your own tiny 11 with the builder which is made by the original creator
Hey.. am a big fan of windows phone. Sad that they don't make it anymore. I was wondering can I have the Windows mobile OS in today's phone? I really love their UI.
Hi :) Sadly windows mobile is dead and you can't install it on a modern phone. If you are on Android you can replace your phones menu with a lookalike to windows mobile by installing a windows mobile launcher.
I had a couple of the Lumia phones and liked the layout . Easy to set up and find things on it . I recently bought a Sony Vaio VGN-ux72 from a Japanese auction site . Stupid me did not check the version of Vista that is on it so i can not change the system language . It runs a small hard drive and i am thinking of converting it to an SSD . The hard drive connects via a ribbon cable , 40 pin i think so i will have to get a converter from that to M.2 . Windows tiny would be good for it i think
I had a HTC HD2 for a while and enjoyed experimenting with different operating systems on it. I used it for a long time with Windows Phone 7, only getting a new phone when Windows Phone 8 and the Nokia Lumia 920 released, which had a mail in bonus for a wireless charger (Windows Phone got into that super early). I was gutted when my HD2 finally died, and even then it was just the charge port that stopped working. My 920 is still kicking with a broken microphone though and I bought a 950 XL just to experiment with not long ago so hearing about Tiny11 is really cool. Definitely giving this a try later.
Great video! you think it's possible to get this working on a 950 non XL ? In France the 950 XL is not findable, but the non XL is quite cheap (around 50 euros)
Absolutely. The tutorials work for both phones. The website states that "processor management is broken - only the 4 A53 cores are working, but locked to 763Mhz". So the performance is probably worse.
The secret of windows 11 is Nokia Symbian and Nokia suite just get nokia x7 or just the Setup of Nokia Suite and you can see the system and the icons is the same of windows 11 Nokia know the future that why they disappeared 😁
interasting. can it also run an external display? because if it did that, it would be a super efficent PC. not sure how many apps have an ARM version but at least you get an interface that is meant for mouse and keyboard(interfaces that aren't meant for it tend to be a bit of a pain to use).
@@2kBofFun well its even more super cheap if someone already owns the phone. but than again, they would have to buy a dongle to connect stuff to the phone. i have a Surface tablet that works pretty well when docked with a full sized monitor so i probably won't be spending any money on more efficent options. but hey, might help someone i guess.
I'm pretty sure it worked with all of my USB-C hubs (Microsoft Display Dock and some generic dock), also Windows 11 can run x86/desktop apps via emulation.
Yes a S23 Ultra would be fire. But you can only use phones that are supported. Right now no Samsung phone is. In my newest video I tried it using a more modern phone and the performance is really good.
Sadly no. It uses the Snapdragon 820 (the Lumia has the 810) which seems to be incompatible with windows on arm. I have seen people ruining android on it though.
Would have been nice to see the windows 11 experience on portrait mode rather that landscape though. I mean, a smartphone is mainly meant to be used on portrait mode
@@YusTus-h9smost people use portrait mode. Not only that but Windows 11 is clearly not optimized for primarily touch interactions, let alone being on a sub 8" display
the coolest part of win phone was it let you install apps on the sd card it self which was too much work to get done on android I was hope full MS will do something like conver phone into mini pc on your hands and may let pc apps to work on phone but that never came and lack of apps led to switch back to android
True, that was a very cool feature that was implemented way better than in android .I had the same hope. They would now have the technology to do that. A phone that is a phone on the go and can dock at home to be a PC. That would be so cool.
It was a bloodthirsty battle bewteen the big 3, they didnt fail it. It was a good battle and they fell to treachery. They just should have put apps in containers and had done with it.
I had the Lumia950 in 2015. It was a great phone, too expensive if you compared its stats with other brands, but the OS was great. Softwaresupport was the biggest issue and MS was too proud to open up to android. Microsoft appstore is not good now but it was an even bigger joke back then. They wanted to create their own ecosystem and become a competitor to Google and Apple. Even the idea thats possible in a saturated market is dumb, but they tried anyways. And failed miserably. However, the Lumias had an always-on display, AND wireless charging in 2015! + a badass camera, so hardware-wise a pretty neat phone. Seeing your Vid now makes me kinda regret giving away the phone. I had it sitting in a drawer til last year.
Very true. The hardware was very good. Even the software was. Android has much improved but back in 2015 I think windows 10 was the better os. Sadly the lack of apps killed it
Actually back then the idea was not dumb at all and they even started selling some good numbers in some markets.... I think in France they even outsold Apple at 1 point. Issue was that MS never put any real effort in it. Even their own employees, outside of windows phone team were using mostly iphones and androids as daily drivers so even integration of their own products like Outlook/exchange worked much better on competitors devices than their own. And you can't have successful product if only 1 department is driving it. Projects like this one require initiative from the entire company. If they have done that form the start, made all their products work best with their devices, invested a bit more into app ecosystem and marketing, maybe even made a deals with larger app developers to pay them to make a native apps, instead of bad ported ones, we would definitely have a 3rd equal player on the market... maybe even a new market leader. Because WP definitely had potential and in a lot of aspects it was years ahead of competition. WP UI is still by far the best UI for phones and there were tons of features that both Apple and Google straight-up copied and monetized, while no one outside of WP enthusiasts even knew existed on WP. Just look at the Google maps live view.... it's only now arriving on android, and only in some markets..... "Nokia maps" had this feature almost 10 years ago. And there are tons more of similar examples.
:D Yeah, many people notice that. The screen was just so reflective that I overlayed it with captured video so it would still be visible in the video :)
I recently got a Retroid Pocket 3+ which is an android device and I thought it was going to be awkward using android in landscape and with physical buttons, but wow it felt so good. There's a built-in virtual mouse which almost makes it like a desktop and it's so much fun to use. Microsoft said they plan on making a handheld version of windows because of all these Chinese windows PCs coming out and I hope they make it good. I always hated how limited android and iOS were. I don't understand at all why they can't just give us folder for certain things. They've VERY VERY VERY slowly added more folder-like features to stuff, but it's just so annoying how some picture files are impossible to find if you don't organize them.
Next time plug in the usb-c adapter and keyboard dongle before booting, otherwise the phone doesn't know what you plug in, is not plug and play, that's working only with desktops, laptops and tablets pc.
you have made a multiboot. ending up with only 4 gb free. would you still recommend multiboot? or ditch wm11... i want to install photoshop also but likely on sdcard .. what is your advice (reason i want photoshop and w11 is because i want to hook this phone up to my display tablet for drawing (huion kamvas 11) extended screen to draw on)
I would not recommend multiboot since, as you said the space is very limited. I also wouldn't realy recommend using this phone productively. Photoshop can be demanding and this phone does not have that much power.
@@TechKingdom35 ill try that. no multyboot, im just hoping i can get it to work. just need it for sketching coloring , no fancy effects/filtering. might not work but gotta try lol. if its not what i want can i still get wm10 back on , reinstalling phones rom?
@@TechKingdom35 damn its been 6 months i see.... (never got to it due to renovation of house.) however i did go back to this video.. the best ever description on how to get windows on lumia... and last night i did just that... flawless following your video.....and it works... toasty phone with windows ..thanks.. will put on a arm version of a drawing progam on later on this week.. will be playing with it tonight with it hooked up to a tablet display . only annoying thing so far is if the phone is off and you want to charge it (not turn it on) putting in a charging cable turns on the phone... and if i dont put the startmenu in dummy itl start the windows automaticly.... but hey its still freeking awesome i now have a windows phone with real windows...making a cast with a bluetooth keyboard/mousepad thing in it this weeken so it looks like tiny laptop tooo hehe...(i willleave a comment as soon as i tested drawing on it with pentablet how it goes) love your videos
@sadev101 Hey, thanks for that comment. Really made my day :) Cool that it worked. And yes, the charging solution is a bit annoying, but as you said, real windows on a phone is awsome.
Yeah might be true. Still cool to see full windows running on a phone. Wait for my next video I have another phone that runs windows really well and still dual boots to android.
I miss using my windows phone. It had the best keyboard. Android keyboards are ok and ios spelling correction is dumb beyond belief. I was pretty sad when I realised I installed a broken version of windows 10 mobile on my lumia 1320 and I had no way of reverting it back to something that worked. It’s neat seeing people still working on their lumias. Wish I could do something with mine.
Overall great phone, camera was just wonderful. If not considering the original battery after 6 months of use just went crazy and phone started randomly turn off and last time it happened it started to swell up and almost blew up, good thing you can take the battery out 😂
Sadly I cant find my Lumix 950Xl FFU searching the net cant seem to find it here's my phone details Product type: RM-116 Productcode : 059X458 and Operatorcode: 000-SG, for now I will have to find to find another way 🙂@@TechKingdom35
Arevyou sure? Because there is some coil looking thing on the backcover that connects to those pins. But I haven't tested if wireless charging stops working if I would block the pins
I didn't want the video to become an hour long. I did test x86 Software on the Lumia in the next video. I also tested x86 Software on a Pocophone in a more recent video.
thanks for the nice video. I have 2 Questions. First of all, is it possible to connect to HDMI and second, can you still boot into the Windows Phone OS for using it as a phone?
Aaaahhh. The HD2 what nostalgia. I had one from new and was so angry with Microsoft when they did nothing with their mobile OS. But it continued to be my main phone for many many years running all manner of different OS. I wonder where I put it?🤔
I have a problem with unlocking the bootloader :(. In the middle of the process it throws an error: Unlocking the bootloader failed It is not possible to unlock the bootloader immediately after flashing. NOTE: Before you can try again to unlock, restart your phone completely and then turn it off properly! OK. Please help.
Nice, I'm finding android less and less tolerant as time goes on. This looks like a strong contender vs linux on a phone. I would like to know, how is it for actually using as a phone, and texting?
SMS doesn't work on Windows 11 and celular data is a bit buggy on Dual SIM devices. Buy a single SIM Lumia 950 XL if you plan to use with WoA, you will only be able to use one at a time anyway. Calls are working fine but you need to install 18363 first to get the SIM ICan0 value and then apply it in Tiny11. As a daily driver for love of God remove every Windows Defender executable from the OS and disable Search Indexing. Otherwise the phone will overheat in your pocket. The experience in Tiny11 as a mobile device is great, after you set everything up. Battery life is a acceptable.
I love how nerdy and appreciative of old tech this is
Thank you very much. More to come :)
Too sick. I would love to see Microsoft release another windows phone other than the android based one.
Yes very sad that Windows Phone died before Windows on Arm was ready. A phone that can transform into a full PC would be awesome.

In France the 950 XL is not findable, but the non XL is quite cheap (around 50 euros)
Absolutely. The tutorials work for both phones. The website states that "processor management is broken - only the 4 A53 cores are working, but locked to 763Mhz". So the performance is probably worse.
@@TechKingdom35 Thank you so much for your answer!
@@TaoEffects Pas de problème :)
The website hasnt been updated in a while. The 763 MHz limit has been removed a while ago and it now runs at 1.55 Ghz
@@pinguin2001 Cool, thanks for the information.

I have a question... If we can put Tiny11 on a Windows Phone, then... CAN WE PUT WINDOWS XP ON IT ? 😭
Nope, sadly not. It needs to be an operating system build for cpus with the arm instruction set. Windows XP is only build for x86 cpus
@@TechKingdom35 Ok, i did my search on the internet and apparently, windows 10 supports ARM. Btw, thanks for responding to my comment :D
The secret of windows 11 is Nokia Symbian and Nokia suite
just get nokia x7 or just the Setup of Nokia Suite and you can see the system and the icons is the same of windows 11
Nokia know the future
that why they disappeared 😁
True, Symbian was very ahead of its time
interasting. can it also run an external display? because if it did that, it would be a super efficent PC. not sure how many apps have an ARM version but at least you get an interface that is meant for mouse and keyboard(interfaces that aren't meant for it tend to be a bit of a pain to use).
You are probably better off with Debian to make it a super cheap helluvalot faster Raspberry Pi.
@@2kBofFun well its even more super cheap if someone already owns the phone. but than again, they would have to buy a dongle to connect stuff to the phone. i have a Surface tablet that works pretty well when docked with a full sized monitor so i probably won't be spending any money on more efficent options. but hey, might help someone i guess.
I'm pretty sure it worked with all of my USB-C hubs (Microsoft Display Dock and some generic dock), also Windows 11 can run x86/desktop apps via emulation.
As said before: I think he left out the "cons" for reasons... like having no sound and cam and stuff...
Why use an old 4g phone when you could use the new Samsung Galaxy S23Ultra and actually use it somewhere. Nobody will activate that phone.
Yes a S23 Ultra would be fire. But you can only use phones that are supported. Right now no Samsung phone is. In my newest video I tried it using a more modern phone and the performance is really good.
Put android x86 on there
I tried, but for now had no success with android.
@@TechKingdom35😢
@@TechKingdom35Mac OS?
@@Realford.gamingthe cpu is not supported.
@@averagerobloxsimp hey it would be worth a try
I wonder about the possibilities of getting that on a HP Elite x3.
I have one and it's already running Windows 10 Mobile.
Sadly no. It uses the Snapdragon 820 (the Lumia has the 810) which seems to be incompatible with windows on arm. I have seen people ruining android on it though.
Would have been nice to see the windows 11 experience on portrait mode rather that landscape though. I mean, a smartphone is mainly meant to be used on portrait mode
LOL
FOR YOU MAYBE
I DO EVERYTHING IN LANDSCAPE MODE ON MY S20U
@@YusTus-h9s
Heh same
@@YusTus-h9smost people use portrait mode. Not only that but Windows 11 is clearly not optimized for primarily touch interactions, let alone being on a sub 8" display
the coolest part of win phone was it let you install apps on the sd card it self which was too much work to get done on android
I was hope full MS will do something like conver phone into mini pc on your hands and may let pc apps to work on phone
but that never came and lack of apps led to switch back to android
True, that was a very cool feature that was implemented way better than in android .I had the same hope. They would now have the technology to do that. A phone that is a phone on the go and can dock at home to be a PC. That would be so cool.
Biggest issue with 950 was poor power management... Great to know, that W11 can still somehow run on these devices.
True cool to see windows 11 running but it really didn't help the power management problematic :D
Welcome to 2023 and most Android flagships still suck at power management.
but it seems like its made for it specifically the UI resolution
That was entertaining & educational. Good video. Subscribed immediately after watching.
I wish this phone is easy to find in my country.
Thank you very much. There are many phones that can run Windows. Like the Pocophone F1 or OnePlus 6T. Maybe another phone is easier to find
@@TechKingdom35 Pocophone F1 can do this mod? Nice! That phone is released here afaik. Is the procedure same as this Lumia one?
@@TechKingdom35 which one runs Windows better?
@@rezqiano No it looks to be a bit more complicated. But there are a few tutorials on youtube.
@@ImmortalChanger Sadly I don't know. The technical specs are very similar so I would guess it is about the same but I don't know.
Finally this guy dont lie with us saying we now install windows 11 app made by unity and having ads😭😭😭😭😭
I loved my Lumia 950 XL, but it sits now collecting dust. Guess I'd better pull it out of storage.
Love you bro❤ from India
Thanks
So sad for nokia 😓, they sold the company to windows and they failed it 😭
True. Very sad to see. They made such great phones
It was a bloodthirsty battle bewteen the big 3, they didnt fail it. It was a good battle and they fell to treachery. They just should have put apps in containers and had done with it.
They did not sell it to microsoft they just mace a project together
I always love windows phone for their performance, but now i dont have any way other than buying third class junk android OS?
I had the Lumia950 in 2015.
It was a great phone, too expensive if you compared its stats with other brands, but the OS was great. Softwaresupport was the biggest issue and MS was too proud to open up to android. Microsoft appstore is not good now but it was an even bigger joke back then. They wanted to create their own ecosystem and become a competitor to Google and Apple. Even the idea thats possible in a saturated market is dumb, but they tried anyways. And failed miserably.
However, the Lumias had an always-on display, AND wireless charging in 2015! + a badass camera, so hardware-wise a pretty neat phone.
Seeing your Vid now makes me kinda regret giving away the phone. I had it sitting in a drawer til last year.
Very true. The hardware was very good. Even the software was. Android has much improved but back in 2015 I think windows 10 was the better os. Sadly the lack of apps killed it
Actually back then the idea was not dumb at all and they even started selling some good numbers in some markets.... I think in France they even outsold Apple at 1 point. Issue was that MS never put any real effort in it. Even their own employees, outside of windows phone team were using mostly iphones and androids as daily drivers so even integration of their own products like Outlook/exchange worked much better on competitors devices than their own.
And you can't have successful product if only 1 department is driving it. Projects like this one require initiative from the entire company.
If they have done that form the start, made all their products work best with their devices, invested a bit more into app ecosystem and marketing, maybe even made a deals with larger app developers to pay them to make a native apps, instead of bad ported ones, we would definitely have a 3rd equal player on the market... maybe even a new market leader. Because WP definitely had potential and in a lot of aspects it was years ahead of competition.
WP UI is still by far the best UI for phones and there were tons of features that both Apple and Google straight-up copied and monetized, while no one outside of WP enthusiasts even knew existed on WP. Just look at the Google maps live view.... it's only now arriving on android, and only in some markets..... "Nokia maps" had this feature almost 10 years ago.
And there are tons more of similar examples.
love how his fingers dissapeared when moving it on the screen
:D Yeah, many people notice that. The screen was just so reflective that I overlayed it with captured video so it would still be visible in the video :)
I recently got a Retroid Pocket 3+ which is an android device and I thought it was going to be awkward using android in landscape and with physical buttons, but wow it felt so good. There's a built-in virtual mouse which almost makes it like a desktop and it's so much fun to use. Microsoft said they plan on making a handheld version of windows because of all these Chinese windows PCs coming out and I hope they make it good. I always hated how limited android and iOS were. I don't understand at all why they can't just give us folder for certain things. They've VERY VERY VERY slowly added more folder-like features to stuff, but it's just so annoying how some picture files are impossible to find if you don't organize them.
Next time plug in the usb-c adapter and keyboard dongle before booting, otherwise the phone doesn't know what you plug in, is not plug and play, that's working only with desktops, laptops and tablets pc.
you have made a multiboot. ending up with only 4 gb free. would you still recommend multiboot? or ditch wm11... i want to install photoshop also but likely on sdcard .. what is your advice
(reason i want photoshop and w11 is because i want to hook this phone up to my display tablet for drawing (huion kamvas 11) extended screen to draw on)
I would not recommend multiboot since, as you said the space is very limited. I also wouldn't realy recommend using this phone productively. Photoshop can be demanding and this phone does not have that much power.
@@TechKingdom35 ill try that. no multyboot, im just hoping i can get it to work. just need it for sketching coloring , no fancy effects/filtering. might not work but gotta try lol. if its not what i want can i still get wm10 back on , reinstalling phones rom?
@@sadev101 Okay, I hope it works out. Yes you can reinstall windows phone
@@TechKingdom35 damn its been 6 months i see.... (never got to it due to renovation of house.) however i did go back to this video.. the best ever description on how to get windows on lumia... and last night i did just that... flawless following your video.....and it works... toasty phone with windows ..thanks.. will put on a arm version of a drawing progam on later on this week.. will be playing with it tonight with it hooked up to a tablet display . only annoying thing so far is if the phone is off and you want to charge it (not turn it on) putting in a charging cable turns on the phone... and if i dont put the startmenu in dummy itl start the windows automaticly.... but hey its still freeking awesome i now have a windows phone with real windows...making a cast with a bluetooth keyboard/mousepad thing in it this weeken so it looks like tiny laptop tooo hehe...(i willleave a comment as soon as i tested drawing on it with pentablet how it goes) love your videos
@sadev101 Hey, thanks for that comment. Really made my day :) Cool that it worked. And yes, the charging solution is a bit annoying, but as you said, real windows on a phone is awsome.
In a month or so it would be interesting to try out kde mobile 6 now that kde plasma 6 is out 😂
I'm looking forward to that actually :)
For some reason during the deployment phase the phone will not register as being in mass storage mode any thoughts or suggestions?
Is it being detected by the computer? So can you see it in windows explorer?
Usless, it's not a phone anymore. Win mobile 8 and 10 was great, 11 has only PC or tablet mode.
Yeah might be true. Still cool to see full windows running on a phone. Wait for my next video I have another phone that runs windows really well and still dual boots to android.
Hmmmm.... Linux on windows phone this sounds like crime i want to see that!
I miss using my windows phone. It had the best keyboard. Android keyboards are ok and ios spelling correction is dumb beyond belief.
I was pretty sad when I realised I installed a broken version of windows 10 mobile on my lumia 1320 and I had no way of reverting it back to something that worked.
It’s neat seeing people still working on their lumias. Wish I could do something with mine.
Overall great phone, camera was just wonderful. If not considering the original battery after 6 months of use just went crazy and phone started randomly turn off and last time it happened it started to swell up and almost blew up, good thing you can take the battery out 😂
:D The original note7. But yes user replaceable batteries are very useful
Does the device include Google Play to download applications or only Windows!??
No why would it have the Google Play store? It has the Microsoft store. There is only Windows 11 running there no Android
I have a Lumia 950XL in my dry box time to bring it out and have a try.
Of course, try it. A fun weekend project. But don't expect everything to work:)
Sadly I cant find my Lumix 950Xl FFU searching the net cant seem to find it here's my phone details Product type: RM-116 Productcode : 059X458 and Operatorcode: 000-SG, for now I will have to find to find another way 🙂@@TechKingdom35
I flashed a NAND Android ROM to my HTC HD2 before i sold it as an "android device" xD.
Nice. What Android version was that? I only had very old versions on mine (2.3 or something along those lines)
@@TechKingdom35 I think it was Android 2.2 or 2.3. I switched to an iPhone 4 and i was very happy with that.
The 2 pin in the back is not wireless charger but I don't really what the usage of the pins
Arevyou sure? Because there is some coil looking thing on the backcover that connects to those pins. But I haven't tested if wireless charging stops working if I would block the pins
@@TechKingdom35 my old galaxy note 3 also had that pin but it doesn't support wireless charging
When I deploy it's getting error file not found
But why no software tests, I was hoping to see how it can run x86-64 apps given that Windows on ARM already can. Or this version can't yet?
I didn't want the video to become an hour long. I did test x86 Software on the Lumia in the next video. I also tested x86 Software on a Pocophone in a more recent video.
Normal phone:🚫
Microsoft phone:✅
It was only possible on this old phone cause this is not IOS
Yeah, I mean new iPhones are sadly not that modding freindly.
thanks for the nice video. I have 2 Questions. First of all, is it possible to connect to HDMI and second, can you still boot into the Windows Phone OS for using it as a phone?
Hi Can i use same method for lumia 640xl will it support this rom ?
It is not supported by this method. You have to Google how to install Windows on a 640xl.
Aaaahhh. The HD2 what nostalgia. I had one from new and was so angry with Microsoft when they did nothing with their mobile OS. But it continued to be my main phone for many many years running all manner of different OS. I wonder where I put it?🤔
The HD2 is a super cool phone. Hope you can find it. There are still cool things to do with it.
The windows phone we needed but never happened
True. Windows Phones hat such a huge potential. Sad to see how Microsoft abandoned the project
Who wouldn’t buy one of these unique phones today. Love it
Sadly, without modern app support, they are not really usable as a smartphone in 2023.
Hi! I have a question. Does Lumia 640xl (Snapdragon 400) support Windows ARM64?
As far as I know there is no support. The Snapdragon 400 dies not support the 64bit instruction set needed for the installation
@@TechKingdom35 Thanks. I have Windows 10 arm32 on it. No browser:(
Only ARM32 version which has way less support than W10M and less apps.
I have done this works ok for pc needed online sites, can you please try ghost spectre 11 on this device
Yeah I have heard of that. I might try that at some point. But I have a few other projects lined up before.
@@TechKingdom35 awesome
The start button looks so dumb there. Should be back to it’s original position.
Qhd display in 2015🤯
I have a problem with unlocking the bootloader :(. In the middle of the process it throws an error: Unlocking the bootloader failed
It is not possible to unlock the bootloader immediately after flashing. NOTE: Before you can try again
to unlock, restart your phone completely and then turn it off properly!
OK. Please help.
This is my problem: ua-cam.com/video/2EZT0gGZ2Fc/v-deo.html
Maybe try reinstalling the original firmware? I never had that problem. Sorry
@@TechKingdom35 I already figured it out. It was enough to add a letter to MainOS in disk management.
@@HonzaCejkaCS Cool, glad to hear that.
Nice, I'm finding android less and less tolerant as time goes on. This looks like a strong contender vs linux on a phone. I would like to know, how is it for actually using as a phone, and texting?
SMS doesn't work on Windows 11 and celular data is a bit buggy on Dual SIM devices. Buy a single SIM Lumia 950 XL if you plan to use with WoA, you will only be able to use one at a time anyway.
Calls are working fine but you need to install 18363 first to get the SIM ICan0 value and then apply it in Tiny11.
As a daily driver for love of God remove every Windows Defender executable from the OS and disable Search Indexing. Otherwise the phone will overheat in your pocket.
The experience in Tiny11 as a mobile device is great, after you set everything up. Battery life is a acceptable.
Best phone i ever had!!😢😢😢 Videos from this phone look so awesome even today. I dont use apps when there is a website, like Facebook
True it had a very good camera
Be careful with Windows Tiny; it's not official
True, but this is only for fun. A non modified windows wouldn't really run great on that phone
Can be installed on a Lumia 640
I miss windows mobile Lumia phone was my favorite phone ever such a great camera software images with HDR and great video also
Yes the Nokia/Lumia phones had very good cameras
Would be awesome to install this on lime a Logitech g cloud
True, sadly that chipset is not supported yet
I'd love to throw 11 on that dual screen microsoft phone.
Screw folding screens, just give me 2-3 of them in a folding device
Saved this, always enjoyed working with phone software. I have a couple of old Nokia phones waiting to be guinea pigs.
Cool, hope you could do something cool with your guinea pigs :)
What if you put android or plasma/debian mobile on that hmmm
I totally want to try that at some point
