WM6.5 can be ported to any HTC device by the chefs on here
I havn't seen enough info about WM7. MS might be enforcing HW requirements, we'll have to see what they do in the fullness of time...
Dave

thanks
hope to be in an official ROM though.

htc pro 2

am i right in thinking the pro 2 is a the same o/s as the touch HD just with a keyboard and some nice features like twin mics etc
thinking of getting one of these when released, never had a WM device but reading this forum seems it will be able to be made to just about anything i want it to do.
looking at this or the nokia N97

Initially, I believe the Pro 2 will have a WM6.1 O/S, but probably a different/upgraded version of TouchFlo... HTC has already committed to having a WM6.5 upgrade for the Pro2 when it gets the 'official' version of the 6.5 O/S.

Welcome to the forum
TPro 2 can be a mixture of HD/TytnII/Universal and look great
And if wm6.5 does not come with it, I´m sure the update will be possible

Don´t go for Nokia
thanks guys for the info

Q: Windows Phone 7 on htc touch pro ?

hi to all
just a q is there any chance to have windows phone 7 on the htc touch pro ? and thanks in advanced
As it looks right now, no. Microsofts official statement was that all current devices will have no Official Upgrade to Windows Phone 7, as the new OS is hardware dependant..
BUT, a team of devs managed to port Android onto our devices, so I wouldn't doubt that one day WP7 will be coming to our current devices.

NO! NO NO no!
because it doesn't reach the requirements for windows phone seven series
Moved as not ROM Development.
No the Raphael will not get Windows7 there is lots about requirements and why we won't on older devices in the Windows 7 Development & Hacking forums.
thanks for ur replay every one ... 2 bad 2 hear that wont fit our req. and stylez sorry bro if i posted in wrong place
in 2011 MS anonses that it will be windows emended based on wnimo7. something like winmo 6 on 7 kernel. this os maybe be comportable with raph.
cool thats good news .. we will wait guys hahaha .. thanks for ur replay everyone
I don't think the raph is fast enough for the constant animation on the docks and everything else that is on wp7, since supposedly it wasn't gonna be compatible with the hd2, I don't think it will be available for the raph, but you never know, we're running android on it, so there might be a slim chance.

[Q] HTC touch diamon windows or android?

just bought a touch diamond whats best windows or android & is it easy to flash back to a windows rom if i try and dont like android... and what roms do folk on here like best on this phone ? opinions please
wELL IT SEEMS NO ONE HAS THE TIME OR INCLINATION TO REPLY ON HERE ANY MORE? I WONDERD IF ITS CHANGED THAT MUCH,FOLK USED TO HELP BUT NO REPLYS,GUESS I WILL JUST HAVE TO STAB IN THE DARK TO SEE WEATHER ANDROID IS FOR ME OR TO STAY WITH WM,whoops please excuse the caps lock was on..
It's only been 24hrs, please be patient when asking a question for the answer.
Re: WM vs Android:
Android does not work 100% on WM devices so it's best to check the Android thread and see what isn't working and if you can live without it.
Alot of Android bases can work via haret on SD card so no need to flash, the nand versions you can flash back to WM via bootloader.
Make sure your Hard-SPL'd.

- You'll get better answers in the Diamond section.
- You didn't even say which model/carrier Diamond you have. GSM Diamond is different from Sprint/Alltel Diamond is different from Verizon Diamond. They are NOT interchangeable.
- Android for CDMA/Sprint Diamond is not really ready for prime time. Biggest problem is battery drain.
- You can try it WITHOUT flashing... just d/l the needed files and run it.
- The best forum to discuss ROMs for the Diamond is on www.ppcgeeks.com
- My favorite ROM for the Sprint Diamond is MightyRom 4. It is WM6.1. I see no point to WM6.5 for the Diamond.
OK thanks & sorry for impationtness would put it down to a bad day at the hair dressers or some thing but being bald/shaved that wont work so i just apologise ,yes i think looking about that i will stick with wm, i have seen the energy rom on the tube i like the look of that , the icons look real good and it seems smooth, so will have a look at some other roms and see, in an ideal world i would just get the handset of choise but i have to search for auction bargins to get my phones.. thanks Ali

Toshiba TG01 FTW, yeh the htc touch pro has better software, but if you get the tg01, install the htc roms that our fantastic chefs cook! the one in my signature is IMHO the best sense ROM, gives it a near perfect expeirience to the htc hd2. and its a snapdragon! my friend has the touch hd, very simiiliar CPU to the touch pro and it is much slower. anyway the touch pro has been suceeded by tp2. the screen of the tg01 is wvga, so it is clearer. personally imho the touch pro is outdated and , get the tg01!
ok guys, due to lady bad luck the toshiba was sold and best next one was the htc touch pro. now i need you're help in finding a good os/updates/apps/something to get it 'rollin' . i would like something stable not that ported android beta os. any advice is welcomed.
and thank you oly for that quick response
IMHO,go for the hTC touch pro...Its a good device when you compare it to the Tosh... Also,the service network of Toshiba is in shambles....Need i say more after you read this?
tnks shr. but i have already bought it... now what OS do you recomend? apps.. everything. i am open to advices/links
please i would realy need another rom because this one lag-s!!
Have a look at the one in my Signature.
Also look at newer TAEL 2.5 sense & Energy ROMs.
TAEL ROM is smooth for me but user tweaking & the ability to read instructions & threads makes the diference between good & bad user experiences !
Tarkin Keyboard button driver is a must, will list some more stuff when have 10 minutes to spare, in middle of catching flight so just a quick reply.
oh, thank you very much! i do appreciate it! but unfortunate, i am a noob. i have never flashed a phone. all i had till now where symbian phones. this is first WM and HTC experience for me .
TG01 Roms
Hi I have been roaming around this forum for a few years now.
I too have a TG01, The best bit of advise I can give is to stay away from any win7 roms, the TG was not designed to ever run it. Win7 is very slow.
There are some very good roms out there, I have found that anything from mirolg tends to be stable.
With regards to flashing a new Rom Check out the "how to Guide" in the TG01 section (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654674) if you are still finding it a little hard have a search for the problem, but if you still cant work it out drop me a PM.
Hope you have a good time finding your perfect Rom.

We were all virgins to flashing at one point.
Do some research & follow guidelines for 6.5 install & run in period from energy & all should be well ! quite simple really ...
In my opinion 2.1 sense is better option on touch pro but some of the newer 2.5 sense ROMs are supposedly fast but do consume more memory resources & battery power.

WP7 is radically different to WM6.5. For most this is a good thing, however I actually wasn't a fan due to it having nowhere the the customisation of WM6.5. If you just need a smartphone that does everything and doesn't let you tinker with a whole lot but looks good, try WP7. If you like lots of options and playing around with everything, go with Android.
The HD7 is nice, but you have have your cake and eat it too if you get a HD2. The HD2 runs WM6.5 natively, but WP7 has been ported to it, as has Android. So you really don't have to choose if you don't want to. That said, the DHD is a nice handset.
Good luck, and welcome to XDA
Id buy a lg optimus 2x because of its specs compared to these phones

The HD7 is limited to WP7 only. To switch to Android, you'd need to buy a HD2. It's an older design, but based on exactly the same hardware as the HD7. The HD2 can run WM6.5, WP7, Android, Ubuntu and even MeeGo. In terms of flexibility, the HD2 is unbeatable thanks to a lot of dev support. There are versions available that will work on any 3G network worldwide.

On the DHD, you will have access to the entire Android market. So yes, there are lots of free apps and games.
You will not be able to install WP7 on the DHD. If WP7 is necessary for you, go for a HTC HD2.
