is it possible to dump the iphone OS for our wizards?
can you dump mac software on a pc and have it work? -- answer to your question and mine is no.
but we can create similar software -- search for "iContacts" and "TouchFlo" in this forum.
I love the htc touch
I dont want the whole OS on my wizard. I would like to try the Safari browser.
OMG .. you seriously asked ..
You're Damn Right I Ask!
Thats how we learn, we read and we ask questions that we dont have a answer to, yet. A lot of people are scared to ask questions on this forum, but not me buddy. Now stick to the question, can we extract some files from the iphone such as the Safari browser and put them on our wizards?
nope, sorry you cant, the system is totally different.

Wow man, that post helped me so much! I think that many other people will agree that that is totally on topic and is giving out a lot of information.
(Can the crap, why is there need for such useless posts?)
Flames...
Don't embarass those who are willing to ask a simple question that only requires a simple answer. If argue about it, argue about it simply, not obnoxiously. Giving our cackles and asking if this person is serious is pretty much lame in the case of forums.
Be polite... I like XDA Developers 'cause we're all polite here...

Well don't you realize that if we can't even fully port TouchFlo's finger gestures to devices such as the Hermes yet that it would be similarly not possible to port Safari, and/or the iPhone OS?
Why do you want Safari in Windows Mobile?
Its a good question actually - as far as I recall the iPhone is based on an Xscale core. Most WM devices are based on similar xscale cpu's so *if* the iphone was running Windows Mobile of some sort yes by all means rip away and run on your device. However since it runs OSX 'mobile' it would be like trying to get your fridge software to run on your tv - no go in any environment. On top of that I don't think you can even get to the system files to copy anything from the system?!
The one way to *possibly* do it is to join the Linux dev project for your phone and then try getting a Linux version of Safari running on your mobile..

You've got a point there. What I think he REALLY wants is the "turn the phone sideways and the phone goes into landscape" feature. LOVE the phone in your signature!

dont kill me for asking.. but i have been seeing a lot of roms with manila screen on it(i think thats what you call it). while that is very cool and fast to use, i cant help but wonder about i someone would be able to copy the sidekick interface. i'm not just talking about an app to make it look like it but an actual rom. i think it be really cool since we have the side scroll bar also. i dont know how to make roms. hope a dev will be reading this and take it in consideration
Let me ask you this....
can you run ps3 games on a Xbox? No....incompatible software and hardware.
i think i shall start new thread in the kaiser rom development forum on "How to sync Kaiser with PS3"
i believe you can connect tilt to ps3 and share media lol. i bet we could be using our kaisers as ps3 controllers within a week

very funny.. lets do it this way, we got the android working on kaiser, immitated the storm, made it look like the iphone without the hardware question being the problem. its not a stupid question its just who will write the coding. android has been working(though unstable) rerouting the buttons also. and im not asking if the sidekick os can be dumped and rebuild, its a matter of is there someone out there smart enough to write it from nothing. seen a lot of crazy things been done to our phone. this would be a brand new step.

Your thought is innovative but if u see the hardware will not be able to support the side kick side pane and a lot of process is involved in makin the android run on the kaiser to name a few we need to port , make the boot runner compatiable with it ..
So bear with it...
i know its a bit off but does anyone know if it would be possible to load android or some sort of linux platform onto a sony psp? any info or link would be great. thanks

i only post when i see fit, and your stupid question was perfect for a post
so thanks, have a nice day with your no android psp
and btw , ive been modding on the psp since it all first started
I don't think it would work, there's no touchscreen.

Yes, Linux has been ported to the PSP : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSXaoWsDNYI
Not much you can do with it though, and I really doubt you'll ever see android or any kind of GUI.
Ok, I got a Samsung Jack from AT&T (first smart phone ) ... but there's a problem: I primarily use Linux, and ... prefer not to boot into the XP partition on my HD unless absolutely necessary. I've yet to find anything for Linux that will allow *direct* access to my phone's FS, or even allows me to sync properly (short of SynCE ... which doesn't want to work for me thus far ). So in short, I can't back up my device right without running my fingers ragged trying to indirectly place it on my microSD card via the phone itself!
Does anyone know of any solutions, or at least ones that will work through WINE?
Additionally ... is there a version of DosBOX that will run on non-touchscreen devices like mine? I specifically avoid them, as they tend to not work well for me.
Did I post this in the wrong forum, or does no one know how to answer my questions? Any suggestions would be quite welcome …

You bought a phone with an infant OS for functionality? It can't do half the things Android and iOS can (yet), and you say it's ugly. I am really questioning your reasoning skills. By the way, it's the best looking and smoothest interface available. Please tell me you don't think the silver/lime green/blue (and completely uncustomizable) iOS theme looks good LOL

You should have read a bit more or ask here before you bought a WP7 with what you call a hideous interface, would have saved you money and us having to read thru all the .....
Quick answer.... No !
Guys, 2 things:
Stop flaming please and try and be helpful
secondly and lastly, @OP, this is not dev related so im moving this to Q&A.
Thanks.
Ok people....let me get this straight....I picked up the phone from a friend that needed money.....he bought the phone on contract, and later needed some money....not a new phone...I gave him 100.00 dollars for it...I am a happy owner owner of an hd2...in a dual boot config...I have never had a windows phone before so I know nothing about the OS....themes....modding.....nothing at all....which is why I came here to ask for EXPERTISE.....not flaming....Im sure there are things on your phones that you dont like either.Mine on the other hand is the looks of the Operating system...after seeing all the different roms and themes for android that are available...I was simply curious to see if there was anything like that for htc hd7 YET...I personally think that Microsoft designed an extremely ugly interface for such a nice phone..I hate the looks of it...big ugly squares of color that take up the whole screen ....looks like a 3rd grader designed it...IMO.So please dont flame me about the phone.I know anyone of you would have happily paid 100.00 for the Brand new phone as well...So on that note...thanks to the people that actually gave me useful information.Now I have the answer to my question.I understand the phone is very new and it will take time to get things modded, themed etc...so I will wait....Or maybe someone here is interested in a trade for an android device that is similar in value?...Who knows....
To the Flamers that have nothing better to do but bash someone for something they have no idea about....GET A LIFE!!!...and remember this next time you ask anyone about something you are unsure of...and hopefully you wont get flamed simply because you ASKED.....peace out...Larry

lol way to go in hijacking someones thread
Seriously though, there is a free app on the market place called SecureIt, in which you can place photos stored in the normal folders and place in there, password protected.
It cant store anything else in there, but it is a good place to hide the girly pics from the misses (so im told )
If you wanted to keep anything else in there such as documents, i guess you could save them in jpeg format instead of pdf for example, that could work
CHow.
Hey larry,
Good you found your answer and that your enjoying your HD2 (it is an awesome device IMHO).
WP7 is in its early state and as such MS will continue to develop it further, i mean look at Apple; they certainly didnt get it right first time, nor did they with android hence all the updates which improve not only the UI but speed, security etc.
WP7 does indeed have exciting times ahead, you only have to look at Mango to realise how well integrated social networking will be in the very core of the OS.
Personally i think wp7 is good, a refreshing attempt at something different, which has great scope for further development in both the OS itself and on the market place, but everyone has their own opinion and certain OS's are not for everyone.
Feel free to PM me, or discuss this further here
Cheers,
Tim.
I've seen some threads, but never found a straight answer. So would is be possible to run Windows Mobile on an Android Device? It could be possible since the HD2 had Windows Mobile with a Capacitive touch screen. Thanks in advance

the fact that Android can be ported to WM device does not necessarily implicate that the vice-versa must be possible,
please check this thread esp. post #2
Android is open source, which makes porting and configuration possible.
Unless you happen to have source code for WM.....
im sure if someone took the time they could, it all comes down to code
I mean, now a days it seems porting anything to anything seems possible, but like what has been seen before, seeing as the WM source is, well, Windows, I don't see this happening very easily. Beside, why would you want to do that! SACRILEGIOUS!
