    How does the QuickLaunch (NOT pin-ups, since pin-ups are stupid :D) on your ARM look like?

    Here is mine:

    Hello everybody,
    I would like to ask the following question:

    > Having a Surface 2 Rt with winrt 8.1, is it possible to run winrt 8.0 in order to jailbreak it and use the ported software non MS-signed?

    I know it is not possible to downgrade winRt 8.1, hence I was thinking to a dual boot (or any other possibility).

    On this topic there are fragments on this forum and on XDA, but none seem to be conclusive (to me at least :)).
    If the answer is positive, I would like to write down a detailed explanation of the necessary steps for other users that have the same idea.

    Many thanks,

    dott_mat

    On Surface 2 and Nokia 2520, it isn't possible to run WRT8-0.
    Device can boot WRT8-0 loader, but HalExtension driver isn't signed for WRT8-0, so you will get "HAL initialization failed" error.
    If the drivers would be signed for WRT8-0, the OS itself would work of course.
    No driver mod is necessary, only their signing for WRT8-0 by is needed.

    Oh, I'm honestly want to believe that WRT10 exists and will be ever released to the public:rolleyes:

    MS certainly compiled W10 to arm too (internally), however they will not release it in any case. Only if they will return to arm or arm64 in future.
