Android for VOX ?? will it ever work? - HTC Vox

I was just wondering if we could have the andriod os on the VOX

Before it runs on Vox, it should maybe run on just one device^^ Wait for releases of a phones with Android. Nobody has the knowledge to port it, except maybe the linux guys, because it's linux-based. So maybe, maybe not, depends on driver support and a guy who ports it!

is there a way to try it on vox?

There are a few HTC (and rebrand) phones that have had Android successfully boot! some have even gone so far as to have keyboards mapped properly and data plans working

interesting..

UP!

Android

Just wondering is anyone tring to get this on the universal yet i see the sorce code has been released, just wondered, my gf. has the g-1 and it looks neat but i haven't play with it yet, hoping to play with it on my own universal
I heard the Touch HD is supposed to have a dual boot option between WM and Android. Can someone else confirm this? Well, if this works, then I'm guessing someone should be capable of getting our unis to boot up android as well!
Cheers,
San
No so easy.
HTC's new products with wm6.1 is HD,with Android is G1,but how can you get the drivers for Uni
There are unix based ports for Universal, I think very few hardware is not working at 100%, if we have drivers for unix we have to have for Android

Port Meizu OS to HTC devices?

Hi!
I wonder if it's possible to port Meizu OS (see http://www.meizume.com/ or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meizu_M8) to our HTC devices?
I think it's a really cool OS that would be awsome to have on a HTC phone, and since it's based on Windows CE6.0 maybe it isn't that hard to port? Just a guess
I think the kind people at the MEIZUME.COM forum would give us a dump of the ROM if we ask kindly
nobody knows if this is possible?

no offense but how be we concentrate on finishing up the various ports of Android for HTC devices 1st.
Well... did CE6.0 change a lot as far as driver interface compared to CE5.0?
I doubt it will work.
The M8 uses Windows CE6 with a Custom Shell made by Meizu.
You would have to also port the drivers of our Windows CE5.2 Devices to CE6 and at the moment no one knows if that is possible or how long it would take.
That's what I mean, though. Is porting of drivers required or is the driver model the same?
Drivers are not the same and would have to be rewritten.... which is not an easy task.
windows mobile 7 is based on ce 6 so it will be possible then. until then... we wait.
okay, thanks for the replies! thought it was easier to port windows made stuff to windows made stuff but I seems like it was easier to port android to our phones lol

Hi
Is there a working Android distr. for the Advantage X7510? and if so where can I find it
Thanks...
No there is not.
How about dual boot.
I have not tried it or read it up yet, but it looks promising.
Gen.Y DualBOOT v1.0.6.0[W|Q|VGA][CAB|EXT]
Have fun!
Edit:
This one seems important too:
[prj][XDANDROID][android.2.0.1|2.1][31.5.10]2.1 AOSP system update
I'll love to dump Windows Mobile and install Android 2.1 in our Athenas
Thanks for the reply, but I still cant figure out which one to use....
i'm learning how to put everything together as we speak.
once i get everything working i'll write a step by step guide for our phone, but for now lets keep our fingers crossed
i'm tired of WM6/7 looking forward to use Android 2.1 as the default OS, specially now that the market is mostly Google vs. Apple (iphone vs. Aphones [Android phones])
Windows Mobile is being left in the dust, as well as Palm and other phone OSes.
HTC already has many Android 2.1 phones on the market, so it's simple logic to follow that direction as most of the drivers should be compatible, even if it's not some one will be able to help and develop a driver for "Linux" Android.
Nice....
I am looking forward to see what you have made.
Android for X7510
I too am waiting for this major improvement to my X7510 device. Looking forward to testing for you anytime. Just let me know when you're ready!
Cheers,
Van
Reviving the Advantage X7510 ...
Hi,
I've put my X7510 aside for some months waiting for something better than WM!
Android seems to be up to the task, but, it seems not much is being done for this excellent phone ...
Anyone has any updates in that regard?
Thanks to all,
AAA

[Q] Switch between Android, Win Phone 7, and WinMo 6.5 on the same device?

hi guys,
I'd like to know if it possible because I've been using my Xperia x1 for about a year and i think it's time for a change but when I checked all the available phones I got confused a little.
it seems like Windows phone 7 looks great but in a review i saw somewhere it says that it lacks some important features such as:
No Bluetooth file transfers
No USB mass storage mode
No multitasking
No copy/paste
No Flash or Silverlight support in the web browser
No DivX/XviD video support
No internet tethering support
Swapping memory card requires hard reset; cards not readable by computer
and Android has great features but IMO I think WinMo gives more freedom in the terms of using or hacking
and as a WinMo 6.5 user I find it a great OS with all the features needed and if there some feature I want that is not already offered it's available here on XDA-Dev either as a .cab or cooked in a ROM
So the Main Question: if I buy a Sonyericsson (X10 maybe) or a HTC with a 1 GHz Processor will I be able to install any OS of them as a ROM???
Thanx in advance.
The only device capable of running WP7 is the hTC Leo and it has actually working Android and some working on Ubuntu and Maemo as well.
not any other device will be capable to do so
Thanx for reply
So the HD2/Leo is able to handle all 3 OSs
but i have more questions please
how is the HD2 up to date regarding the specs? like the RAM, ROM, and processor
can there be 2 OSs in the same time and to be able to switch between them?
and does android 2.2 froyo work 100% i mean with everything working??
thanx again

I'm intreagued, what about the duplo phone looks great to you?
The basic HD2 specs are up to date on paper (RAM, ROM, processor) and even beat some newer phones but dig deep and you'll see the latest version of the chips are better. Android 2.2 is running perfectly but WP7 is still work in progress.
It's more than a year old but still the best phone EVER.

Well, it's clear now that the HD2 is one of the best phones out there as it's capable of handling nearly the 3 OSs, Thanx for ur help
Any chance for Desire to use WP7 too?
I would be great if it is possible.
I wanna try WP7 too.

Windows Mobile 6.5 Needed

Hello, I have been developing android for phones for a while but need to know if there is a way to port Windows Mobile 6.5 to the HTC CHACHA. I ask of this because I want to see the old 6.5 again but on a newer handset. I did like it then and want back now as well.
Please reply soon.

Are you joking? Dont do this s**t, dont put windows wher he shouldnt be.
Windows on phones is the worst mistake that MS do.
I know what you mean dude, but is it possible? I have loads of .cab files to test out on the OS and have been collecting them for years - if they work on the ChaCha I could be on to something.
The OS can be similar of that to the HTC Excalibur or the HTC Snap. It doesn't really matter which - but is it possible on the processor??
Gimme a shout (PM or something) with some other extra info (mainly how do you want the OS) and if there's any chance of taking it off an old HTC phone that I have lying around gathering dust on it. I remember having an .img with 6.5 but it got lost (prolly deleted it).
Hi, thank you for replying Alex C., i need a rom for the ChaCha in the format of the one that used to be on the Samsung Jack (it is a Windows Mobile 6.5 qwerty).
However will the ROM work on the ChaCha processor and will it be stable??
Also, the processor on the Jack is 528MHZ and the ChaCha is 800MHZ will there be a significant speed increase??
If you can get me a ROM that will boot and stable - we could open a Windows Mobile thread.
Also, you said you get something off a HTC phone - will HTC Excalibur be able to work on ChaCha.
Thanks Alex C. Please let me know soon, TechMayhem.
Don't bother wasting your time, you don't have any proprietary files, don't have a bootloader and WM doesn't have support for your phone.
Android phones use dalvik VM to load the java-based Android OS. WM is not java-based and can therefore not be booted by this phone. Only possibility is that you would mix up an WM 6.5 phone with the chacha, but I don't think you will succeed. Ever. You might try just picking up a second hand WM6.5 phone though, I don't think they cost much. And you could always try your .cab's on a emulator on your pc.
