"Hacker attack" from LumiaWoA: "Porting" Windows 10 system to Microsoft Android phones and Surface Duo devices

According to MSPoweruser reports, Gustave Monce, a well-known hacker developer from the LumiaWoA project, recently "ported" the Windows 10 system to Microsoft's Lumia 950XL mobile phone and Microsoft's Surface Duo. This news has attracted a lot of attention as soon as it was reported.

It is reported that "rumors" said that Microsoft's Surface Duo was originally intended to run Windows 10X, but then Microsoft abandoned the project and switched to Android.

It is precisely because of this "rumor" that hacker developer Gustave Monce can't sit still. For this "missed" assumption, since Microsoft does not give this opportunity, then Gustave Monce will do it by himself! So, Gustave Monce created a Surprise for this hypothesis-these mobile devices can finally run Windows.

According to reports, hacker Gustave Monce first ported Windows 10 to Microsoft's Lumia 950XL mobile phone. A few weeks ago, he successfully "obtained" a Surface Duo dual-screen device, so he also "has a black hand" on the device.

In a tweet on December 27th, Gustave Monce posted "So apparently we're booting to efishell, just need to believe the logs for that...". It seems that he has now begun to crack its boot program, although he has not said what he intends to do, but the outside world has doubts about him.

As mentioned earlier, although he has not yet revealed his intentions, this is also an issue that everyone will pay attention to in the coming time.

It seems that the Windows 10 Mobile project, which was officially "cut down" by Microsoft, will now be "resurrected" in the LumiaWoA project. Perhaps in addition to Gustave Monce, there are also many developers who plan to "port" new systems to old Lumia models and new Android models.

As we all know, in the past few years, because Microsoft provides ARM devices compatible Windows 10 version, so a group of independent developers have been maintaining an unofficial Windows on ARM project-WOA. Now that Microsoft has released the Windows 11 ARM version, these developers may also have new activities.

It is understood that since 2019, the Lumia mobile phone flashing Windows 10 ARM (WOA) project, which is a collection of third-party developers, has also been launched on GitHub, including all projects related to LumiaWOA.
