Finding the Unique Device ID in Windows Phone 7 (And Device Manufacturer And Anonymous Windows Live ID)

Here’s Nick Harris with a handy set of static methods for getting the following unique IDs:

• Device Manufacturer ID
  • DeviceExtendedProperties.TryGetValue(“DeviceManufacturer”, out someObject);
  • example: “HTC”
• Device ID
  • DeviceExtendedProperties.TryGetValue(“DeviceUniqueId”, out someObject);
  • requires ID_CAP_IDENTITY_DEVICE in the app manifest which will trigger a warning to users when they install the app
  • a byte[], converter to a string will looks like
    “12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123”
• Anonymous Windows Live ID
  • A 32 character subset at offset 2  of the results of
    “UserExtendedProperties.TryGetValue(“ANID”, out someObject)
  • requires ID_CAP_IDENTITY_USER in the app manifest which will trigger a warning to users when they install the app
  • looks like “00FF00FF00FF00FF00FF00FF00FF00FF”

However, if you just need any unique identifier (not necessarily a device ID), you can always set and store a new global unique identifier using:

Guid.NewGuid();

which will return a 128-bit integer that will look something like this:

“e81644f1-46b6-4994-2903-1d1f1440c130″

This will not cause warnings to appear when the app is downloaded because it isn’t a constant identifier to that specific device.

SQLite on WP7

“C# Sqlite Port for Windows phone 7 and possibly Silverlight 3, 4. The core engine was slightly modified to be used with IsolatedStorage and SqliteClient were ported by using missing codes from Mono project in order to maximize usability and portability from desktop.”

Although sterling works great, it is essentially an object-based database (NoSql-like)… If you truly need a relational database or if your application currently uses SQLite and you want to port it to Windows Phone 7, this might just be the answer!

Let’s get started… As with traditional ADO.NET, we first need to create a connection:

 Collapse | Copy Code

using (SqliteConnection conn = 
 new SqliteConnection("Version=3,uri=file:Super14Database.db"))
{
    conn.Open();
    // Use the connection here...
}

And now we can start using the database with “normal” SQL statements… Let’s create a table.

 Collapse | Copy Code

using (SqliteCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand())
{
    cmd.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE matches ( [id] INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, _
 [team1] TEXT, [score1] INTEGER, [team2] TEXT, [score2] TEXT, [date] TEXT)";
    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}

And to insert data:

 Collapse | Copy Code

cmd.Transaction = conn.BeginTransaction();
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO matches(score1, team1, 
 score2, team2, date) VALUES(@score1, @team1, @score2, @team2, @date);";

cmd.Parameters.Add("@score1",  null);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@team1", null);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@score2",  null);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@team2",  null);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@date",  null);

cmd.Parameters["@score1"].Value = 20;
cmd.Parameters["@team1"].Value =  "Blues";
cmd.Parameters["@score2"].Value =  34;
cmd.Parameters["@team2"].Value =  "Hurricanes";
cmd.Parameters["@date"].Value =  "12/02/10";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();


cmd.Parameters["@score1"].Value =  15;
cmd.Parameters["@team1"].Value =  "W Force";
cmd.Parameters["@score2"].Value =  24;
cmd.Parameters["@team2"].Value =  "Brumbies";
cmd.Parameters["@date"].Value =  "12/02/10";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

cmd.Parameters["@score1"].Value =  34;
cmd.Parameters["@team1"].Value =  "Cheetahs";
cmd.Parameters["@score2"].Value =  51;
cmd.Parameters["@team2"].Value =  "Bulls";
cmd.Parameters["@date"].Value =  "12/02/10";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

cmd.Parameters["@score1"].Value =  32;
cmd.Parameters["@team1"].Value =  "Crusaders";
cmd.Parameters["@score2"].Value =  17;
cmd.Parameters["@team2"].Value =  "highlanders";
cmd.Parameters["@date"].Value =  "12/02/10";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

cmd.Parameters["@score1"].Value =  28;
cmd.Parameters["@team1"].Value =  "Reds";
cmd.Parameters["@score2"].Value =  30;
cmd.Parameters["@team2"].Value =  "Waratahs";
cmd.Parameters["@date"].Value =  "12/02/10";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

cmd.Parameters["@score1"].Value =  13;
cmd.Parameters["@team1"].Value =  "Lions";
cmd.Parameters["@score1"].Value =  26;
cmd.Parameters["@team2"].Value =  "Stomers";
cmd.Parameters["@date"].Value =  "12/02/10";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

cmd.Parameters["@score1"].Value =  18;
cmd.Parameters["@team1"].Value =  "Sharks";
cmd.Parameters["@score2"].Value =  19;
cmd.Parameters["@team2"].Value =  "Chiefs";
cmd.Parameters["@date"].Value =  "12/02/10";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
                    
cmd.Transaction.Commit();

NOTE: Notice the transaction support build in!

To fetch data from the database:

 Collapse | Copy Code

cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM matches";
using (SqliteDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
    while (reader.Read())
    {
        var team1 = reader.GetValue(1);
        var score1 = reader.GetValue(2);
        var team2 = reader.GetValue(3);
        var score2 = reader.GetValue(4);
        var date = reader.GetValue(5);
    }
}

And that’s it! It is more verbose but it does work great and the translation from a normal desktop application that used SQLite should be simple!

Windows Phone 7 Emulator Skin Switcher 1.0 Beta

In the last few weeks several people started creating their own skins for the Windows Phone 7 Emulator. Switching between different skins was a lot of work by copying files manually to the emulator directory every time you wanted to switch. From now on this is not needed anymore because you can use the Windows Phone 7 Emulator Skin Switcher application I’ve created.

You can download the application here: Download

This version is the first beta release with my first set of skins. I added 2 skins from Georg Kalus: the Blue Nokia Lumia 800 and the White/Pink Nokia Lumia 710. I’ve also included the Black Nokia Lumia 800 skin from Pedro Lamas

The complete list of skins included in the application now are:

• Default skin – Microsoft
• Nokia Lumia 710 Black Blue – Geert van der Cruijsen
• Nokia Lumia 710 Black Yellow – Geert van der Cruijsen
• Nokia Lumia 710 White Black – Geert van der Cruijsen
• Nokia Lumia 710 White Blue – Geert van der Cruijsen
• Nokia Lumia 710 White Pink – Georg Kalus
• Nokia Lumia 800 Black – Pedro Lamas
• Nokia Lumia 800 Blue – Georg Kalus
• Nokia Lumia 800 Pink – Geert van der Cruijsen

I’m planning on adding more skins in the near future but didn’t have time for it yet. If you have skins I can use please let me know by comment or on twitter

Hopefully this will make your Windows Phone 7 projects even more fun to test!

How To Change Your Windows Phone Emulator？

Today, I discovered that Pedro Lamas had released a skin for the Windows Phone emulator that allowed it to look like the Nokia Lumia 800.  (You can see it here.)

This inspired me to create another new skin for my current phone, the HTC Arrive.  (Click here to download the HTC Arrive Windows Phone Emulator skin.)  To use either of them, you simply need to copy the contents of the zip file to a specific folder on your computer (make sure to save a copy of the original files):

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\

Once you’ve done that, your emulator can look like one of the images below!

HowTo - 在 Windows 7 、Vista 忘記 Administrator 密碼

To reset a forgotten administrator password, follow these steps:

1. Boot from Windows PE or Windows RE and access the command prompt.
2. Find the drive letter of the partition where Windows is installed. In Vista and Windows XP, it is usually C:, in Windows 7, it is D: in most cases because the first partition contains Startup Repair. To find the drive letter, type C: (or D:, respectively) and search for the Windows folder. Note that Windows PE (RE) usually resides on X:.
3. Type the following command (replace “c:” with the correct drive letter if Windows is not located on C:):
   copy c:\windows\system32\sethc.exe c:\
   This creates a copy of sethc.exe to restore later.
4. Type this command to replace sethc.exe with cmd.exe:
   copy /y c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe c:\windows\system32\sethc.exeReboot your computer and start the Windows installation where you forgot the administrator password.
5. After you see the logon screen, press the SHIFT key five times.
6. You should see a command prompt where you can enter the following command to reset the Windows password (see screenshot above):
   net user your_user_name new_password
   If you don’t know your user name, just type net user to list the available user names.
7. You can now log on with the new password.

I recommend that you replace sethc.exe with the copy you stored in the root folder of your system drive in step 3. For this, you have to boot up again with Windows PE or RE because you can’t replace system files while the Windows installation is online. Then you have to enter this command:

copy /y c:\sethc.exe c:\windows\system32\sethc.exe
