Re: Looking for recommendation on Win Phone to get for testing

If you don't need WP8 at all, have you tried the HTC HD2?  It's a few years
old, but it's one of the most moddable, versatile phones out there.  Runs
WMo 6.5 out of the box, but it can be modded to run WP7, Android, MeeGo,
Ubuntu.

I think several of the roms come unlocked/rooted/etc.

:) Sorry, I meant the Lumia 900. The Nokia n900 is as I already own that
device.

Are the Nokia 900 and Samsung Focus 2 rootable/jailbreakable?

I'm looking for a recommendation on which WinPhone 7.x is the best to
get in
order to perform mobile assessments on. I don't get many assessments on
these devices, and last I had checked there wasn't much in this area
for
rooting the devices and getting access to the file system.


I just asked a Windows Phone ISV friend, and he says currently the
Nokia 900 and Samsung Focus 2 are the frontrunner devices for WinPhone7.

Note that WinPhone8 is released, and has more APIs available to write
apps with, the WP7 was fairly lame (even compared to WP1-6). Personally, if
I were forced to use a WP again, I'd only use a WP8, not a WP7.


 Additionally, I had looked at that time into using an emulator, but
this
also was not fruitful. It has probably been over a year since I last
looked
in this area. If anyone has some recommendations for a device and can
point
me to the direction to do some research it would be helpful.


The WP emulator sucks. :-(
