Device Emulator V2 is just released at https://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=dd567053-f231-4a64-a648-fea5e7061303&displaylang=en. This release contains a set of new exciting features

  • Speakerphone, headset and carkit support.
  • Battery support.
  • Much improved JIT performance.
  • Vista cradling support.
  • And many more small fixes.

Cradling with Vista:- To be compatible with the new Windows Mobile Device Center in Windows Vista (known as ActiveSync on Windows XP), we have taken a redesign of our DMA plugin (SerDMAASPlugin.dll). Before you cradle your emulator on Vista, you will need to install the Windows Mobile Device Center application (select the 32-bit or 64-bit version, as appropriate).

Cradling on Vista x64 systems:- This release has cradling issues on Vista x64 systems. We are working in full steam to release a patch very soon for the same.

We are waiting to hear your feedback on the release.
