This allows the boot loader of Windows 10 mobile devices to be unlocked. This makes it possible to install Custom-Roms or Windows 10 on ARM on these devices.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Windows Phone community is slowly dying. As MS Power User <a href=\"https:\/\/mspoweruser.com\/windows-phone-internals-now-open-source\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reports here<\/a>, Ren\u00e9 Lergner lacks the time to maintain Windows Phone Internals (WPinternals).&nbsp; So he won't be able to give the project his full attention anymore. As a consequence, he has <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20201109023928\/https:\/\/wpinternals.net\/index.php\/133-source-code-of-wpinternals-on-github\">declared the project Open Source<\/a>, so that other developers can take over and continue his work. <\/p>\n<p>The source code of WPInternals is available <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/ReneLergner\/WPinternals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">at Github<\/a>. Ren\u00e9 Lergner also wants to upload some of his early hacking tools, according to his explanation. Question: Is that even of interest to any of you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A brief information for for people who still have Windows 10 Mobile devices and use them for handicrafts.
