just in case your interested
Should be interesting. I remember when they put the HD on their website . Wonder how long it will be ?
is it me or is that thing dog ugly?
the other minor thing is 4G isnt anywhere near ready here is it? or have i missed something?
no your right it is not the prettiest thing in the world and the UK doesn't support 4g anywhere so it is kinda redundent but hey people will but it cos it's new.
Ah would that be David from the O2 XDA forums?
i think we contributed quite a bit to the Touch HD conversation over there several months back, to tell you the truth after i upgraded to the X1 then sold it i hardly ever went back there.
why would the need this device and they have htc hd which is much more better and supported in their country
Hi dazza9075 yeah it's me Hows things? I still spend alot of time in there but just in XDA's when they need something useful though!!!
Hoss your right i have no idea why they would release the quartz as there is nothing that the HD cannot do except 4g of course. The HD is better in every other way.
Ah well
The only logic to them doing this is because 4G in one form or another will be released, my problem with that will be that there will be new hardware on the market long before that happens, my gut tells me that site is selling imports to make a few quid on those folk who want the cutting edge and more helpfully those of us that roam about the world a lot.
Still dog ugly mind.
All is well, i still have my Orbit working, infact i stuck it in my car wired it up and stuck a pay as you go in it and use it to track it... more of an experiment than anything but quite useful of someone tried to nick the car!
that's pretty cool. How'd you manage to do that?
12v car charger run too the boot, fixed the phone down with velcro at the moment, and installed a tracker program, trick was to get constant power, say you used the power from the cigerette lighter it would turn off when the car is off, which isnt much use if your battery dies.
then all i do is send a text message to the phone and it will tell me where its been and more importantly where it is! two problems i found, sat data is quite low in the boot for some reason, maybe the heated rear window has something to do with it, so maybe need to wire up a bigger aerial. Other problem is if the phone is out of network range i wont be able to communicate to it, but helpfully as soon as it gets a connection it "should" send back a log of where its been.
Awesome. Thats all i have to say really.
well its just a test, just trying to find something to keep the old thing in use, shame to let it waste.
Only a 3.2 MP camera, kinda going backwards on that front!

In the future, when there are lots of wimax users, independant user networks will be possible, a kind of peer to peer wireless networking.
Goodbye telcos then.
Max has TV out too.
ah huh, in the future, or at least the future where what you are saying is the norm we wont be using Touch HD based hardware, we'll be 3rd or 4th generation along
I wouldn't hold out too much hope, it has been on there for months!!! Other htc phones have come and gone in that time!!!
Remember guys WiMax isn't actual 4G which is LTE. WiMax is like a go between of 3G and Wi-Fi afaik.
Who choose what network is 4G or 5G ...? 1G,2G,... it's only abbreiation
its not just an abbreviation. It refers to how technology is progressing see this for the whole shebang http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/07/14/future_wireless_tech/

Im on Windows Mobile 6.5 (mighty rom)
How has no one created a WoW armory like the I-phone.
I just used it for the 1st time on my g/fs Iphone. All i have to say is wow. what a nice program
how come we dont get one?
sad

Ive been looking for a bit with no luck, its really not looking hopeful, but I too would like this if possible.
Just get a browser and use it like home, we don't need an app for every Website around, Windows Mobile can actually do Flash with Skyfire...

While I agree it can do it, somethings are just easier in app form I guess, but I will check it out from skyfire when my HD2 arrive
Moved as not software release.
sure you can do it web based. but have you seen the app on iphone?
its amazing. fast. you can go thru stuff quickly.
i hope someone makes one. I will donate.
anyone?
we need someone to make this, the new android has one now. Someone made a custom program and it looks awesome
I think the program is java based, so I am not even sure you can reverse engineer it.
Just wondering if there is still any interest in this?
I have been out of programming for awhile, but was thinking of trying my hand at doiong something for my phone, and figure this might be a good one to start with.
if there is interest in it I will give it a go. Just have to figure out what I need to get to do it..
I feel like we are only thinking one sided, android devices should be able to boot windows mobile. I would do it but I dont know where to start.
maybe i will try and flash a wm6.5.3 wqvga rom to mytouch 3g and see what happens since they have native capacitative support in the os now.
somebody mind pointing me in the right direction?
wtf would you want windows on this? i would point you in direction of buying a windows device
only for try..i want to try win mob. on my magic..i don't like win but if i can choose with a bootloader if start android or win mob. ............so WoooW
if win mob is hard to port...we can try to port iOs... no??
(sorry for my bad english, i'm italian)
if Apple users can port Android on iFron, why we can't port iOS on Android devices???
I don't like WM either, but i think it would be nice to see iOS on Android...but in my opinion it is impossible.. if it was possible, somebody would do it already..
lele5800, because Android is open operating system, you can modify sources and build it for any device.
iOS and WM are closed..

you see you all miss the strong points of windows mobile. not only could i open view and edit office files i could open and send directly from my email (outlook mobile) i have a mytouch 3g and honestly dont like it even with froyo. the only reason i got this lacking device is because i broke my touch pro2
there are so many things I can do that i cant do on android with out a force close.
and if android is soo "cool" why not run windows mobile for people that need that good office integration for work since jobs are hard to find here in america.
I thought it would be a good idea. android to me is for people who would like to seem smart with out the need of actual know how.
the developers on the other hand seem smart to me remembering all the sudo command lol
but I seen my personal compatibility flaws with android when i couldnt open a docx or a doc file directly from my email and/or save it where I wanted to.
so dont down me for wanting better integration.
android looks nice. thats about it. the keyboard onscreen likes to close on its own and never come back. too often. so please if you arent helping the port dont say that other chitter chatter. cause the **** don't matter.

What the flying **** are you talking about? If you hate Android so much sell your myTouch3G and GTFO.
All the "flaws" your talking about aren't even real issues. File manager? Did you spend 1 minute looking through the market for a file manager app?
Opening the limitation to opening a docx file is part of the design by Microsoft why the **** would they want people to be able to open and edit documents with software that isn't getting them money? And why the **** would you want to edit your docs on a 3.2inch touch screen. FAIL
The Keyboard likes to close and never come back? That has never happened to me. You're using your phone wrong.
So android is for idiots?
Were you any smarter than you are you would have a bunch of apps that do all the things you want them to do. For example DocsToGo is an excellent program compatible with ms office files.
Android runs perfectly if you know what to run on your device. try running windows 7 on Intel 386. Works well,huh?
Exactly, your **** does not matter.
Windows mobile..never again.
Windows Phone 7.. wortha try next month
I only mentioned that some have making something for magic, but unfortunately, certains members instead of providing more, they talk and talk.
I think that is not the purpose of this forum.
your reply does not help its purpose either.
thought i would share this link with you all...i thought it was interesting to see where we are heading for the future! how long till we have DS Emulator on the Market?

Thank bro...

Nice..
I think that this could also be done now manually eg. by installing another chrooted OS (Debian) and configuring Xorg to work correctly with the external screen. Yes, it is complicated and unseen problems will probably arise.
IMO that looks like a train wreck. A couple of beers later, snap! You now have two phones.

Yeah, I don't think it will go anywhere either. I'm sure someone will do something cool to it though. I remember being on Engadget during the press conference waiting for that dumb David Blaine stunt to get over with.

Yea I heard about the David Blaine thing; kinda stupid imo.
However, I don't really like the design of the phone, not really pleasing to look at; that and tthe fact that the form factor itself might actually take away from the speed you can do most things.

Lol have sense but i think that is a failer = [
Technically, we already have a very early Prototype DS emulator on the market.
Just search up Tiger Lab Nintendo DS on Google
{I would provide the URL link but as the website says I'm still a n00b and unable to post weblinks}
I personally haven't tried out the emulator, but it definately shows promise.
nice, finally effective multi tasking phone
That dual screen phone is pretty darn ugly. I don't think I'd carry a dual screen phone... definitely not one with those specs. It's too thick and too big without the good specs it would need.
IS this possible ? I know I know why would I want to.... Personally its the whole sh1t @ss media setup android has. Dont get me started on browsers.
I thought I read winmo has some kind of indentifier? Is this true? IF not are there any 8mp wp7 phones ?
Let the flamming begin my skin is made of asbestos!
I'd be interested in trying this out too. There was a project to create on on another Android Device, I just can't remember which one.
My grandparents always had this saying: **** in one hand and wish in the other. See which fills up faster.
I still to this day have no clue what that means but I feel like it applies here.
Just funning. This would be something I'd want too but I believe it's near impossible without a companion device on that OS a la HD2/EVO/HD7. That's why the HD2 can dual-boot all those OSes.

The closest your gonna get for now is the Launcher 7 app. Its free from the market.
Unfortunately (Or fortunately imo), this is likely never going to happen. It's just not possible with the extra security that MS has employed, and it would in all honesty be a waste of time. There isn't anything WM7 can do that Android can't. (AFAIK.)
Yea it would be definitely unique for them to make that possible...sort of like how they're trying to port android to the HD7...this could be a sort of new age HD2 LOL...you know without Wm of course
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Ive also read security is tough. they went the extra mile and there are a few hardware signatures.
I would be interested in seeing this happen for an N1 or G2x simply out of curiousity because i dont see myself ever leaving android let alone to buy a windows phone. a port would allow me to try it out for a while ( i think i know 1 person that has a WP7 ) lol
Id be curious to see how well it integrates to the PC and XBOX 360. ever since the windows smartphone became an Idea they killed the ability to see my android on the xbox which is a shame.

Windows mobile 7 can multitask WAY better than Android. Try streaming audio or video in one window then open another and surf while trying to listen to the streaming audio/video in the first browser window that was active. On Android the audio/video streaming will cease, on Windows 7 you can browse on the newly opened window while the audio/video streaming from the first window will still be active and playing in the background for you to listen to.
Also, with all my reading and researching on other android forums and devices, it seems Android as an operating system is a huge battery drainer even when you're not activley using the handset/device. Windows mobile 7 won't have a horrible battery drain like Android when just on standby. My assumption on this is that google really wants to "listen" in on you, after all they are part of this "big brother" movement.

P.S. Sorry to continue the off topic-ness...as far as your question goes OP, I doubt that it will ever happen because it would be hard to accomplish in the first place (due to security and compatibility with hardware) and I'm not sure that a lot of developers would be interested in undertaking this project.

Agreed, I can't imagine any devs putting in the HUGE effort it would take to port WP7 to this device given the lack of demand for such a port (most people who want WP7 buy a phone with WP7). That said, it would be a great technical accomplishment and just plain cool.
my whole thing is (and heres where I debunk the whole android is superior myth)
is im a media guy: internet music videos etc. And im sorry but android SUCKS and FAILS massively with that. and of course theres the whole stupid file management thing(why is there not a native file explorer like windows?).
and then the biggest android fail: web browsing.
it just sucks on android. I mean its awful. WHy is the native browser so... crappy? I feel its bs that i have to "get an app for that" when it seems to me it should be part of the native OS. I know...its a phone. But whotf uses "mobile version" websites? what is this symbian? And why has no one made an ap for the ua debug ? I want to open my browser and go to ANY website I want in FULL desktop view. JUST LIKE WINDOWS. WITHOUT having to type in "aboutdebug" go to settings etc... really getting old
Skyfires ok...but... some websites(like my bank ) dont work. ANd pay for video??? sigh. at least they have a UA psuedo ap at the top.
and again poor media structure...No music or video looping...the list goes on.
MAybe you guys have suggestions. I also HATE that all my media shows up in gallery. grrr ...gallery blows. I dont want to "hide" my files I just want to seperate them and not have them all open up in "gallery".
SO yes windows phones DO have some advanteges over android. Too bad windows phones suck at everything else.
MS kills me when they advertise wp7 has "thousands" of apps. its like when some loacl band compares them selves to a bigger badn" we have hundreds of fans"...k.
back to my rant ....WHy does android have the UA set this anyways its totally fkn (insert deragatory tasteless term here for all you pc bishes).

I love Android...and completely disagree with all (almost all) of your points...but you are entitled to your opinion. I have to wonder though why you would go on an Android forum and rant against Android...seems a little trollish. Sure WP7 has some advantages over Android (not sure what they are)...peas have some advantages over carrots...but they aren't the same thing and if I want peas I don't eat carrots (and then complain about the carrots). Maybe you should sell your g2x (assuming you have one) and get a WP7 phone. Not trying to be an ass. Just don't understand where you're coming from.
But like I said, a WP7 port would be cool from a technical standpoint.

yeah ok "storm" ... I changed it so you dont cry to mommy that i hurt your feelings but fyi I didnt type "gay".... can we get back to topic now? ill try n watch my p's n q's. Funny how every one can say the f word and all kind of swearing on this forum, but the minute i use the word gay someone has to whine about it. WHy dont you look up the original context of the term ghey and how its NOT a deragatory term. SOme people got to much time on their hands. Man up will ya?
for the file explorer there are plenty of free great apps.
for the browser Its not as great as my desktop but i use it often and don't have any issues. the mobile version of websites is becoming more common and when the web admin does a good job the mobile specific version is laid out better. for example sun-trust mobile. I don't even miss having an app the mobile site is so well laid out
when I need a desktop version in CM7 i just select "change user agent" under settings. if you don't like that there is always Firefox which isnt perfect but i love the syncing favs/passwords with desktop.
I will however agree with the lack of "pizzaz and wow" with media. and i REALLY agree with you on the featureless gallery and not being able to better organize it.
Just remember the whole point in android isn't to have everything set up just the way YOU like it right away. not everyone likes the same thing. the beauty in android is if you don't like it you can easily change it.
think of it this way.. the Iphone is a great phone for many people. but if you don't like the way something works or don't like Itunes you are pretty much S.O.L
once you get everything set and dialed in you wont ever want to part with your android and most other phone users are jealous
that being said.. again i really do agree with you and there needs to be some work done with the way the phone deals with media and storage.

Funny how now im a troll because I have some gripes with android. Do you work for google and dont like me pointing out flaws? IM just saying these are things that android lacks... and I love my g2x too much to give it up.lol. Not trolling, not trying to offend any one with the way I talk. But I am still right about this as you have yet to prove me wrong or give me advice on how to work around it. and I dont hate android, its awesome and I love everything thats being done with it so why not make it better and have better media software for it?
I had a mt4g then went to the hd7 in high hopes for the wp7 and enjoyed it for a few days simply because of Netflix and simplicity... but. I came running back to android on the g2x after 2 terrible hd7 handsets... it had a few nice features but in no way stands up against what we can mold our android to be.
As for the browser wp7 was amazingly smooth...
