Can this be done with HTC phones?
I like the concept. It's about time, we can get a picture of our own phone/mp3 player on the screen, color included. Itunes has only done that for about 4 versions now.
Here is the link to the developer kit: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/DeviceExperience/Dev-Kit.mspx
Which I assume will never get utilized by phone manufacturers, since Microsoft is leaving it up to them. Maybe for the newest ones.
Nice article about it: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2354491,00.asp
If there is a place likely to develop these custom .xml profiles before waiting for the phone companies to do it, XDA seems like the place.
Any takers on cooking these profiles up? 1 Vote for the Tilt.

I've gone through a few phones recently and many of them already do this in WMDC but I suspect you need a manufacturer that can be bothered. In fact, I remember my tosh g900 doing this a couple of years ago.

why would you get anything else? Especially, if you have hundreds of developers that work in harmony and thousands of users willing to assist. Unless you do not enjoy spending countless hours modifying your device to meet your preferences. Touch Pro 2 should be coming out in mid April, which looks very intriguing. However, I do not think I would be ready to unleash my kaiser until it passes away.
But then again it is all personal preference. Hopefully your parents or anyone else in your life do not dictate how you should live it. It is your choice and there is not really a reasonable purpose for this thread.

There's a few hundred ideas at www.pdadb.net
It has the latest & new ppc's on the horizen with all the specs...

I like the way WM 7 is heading. Especially with a new Windows Media Player...
Looks fake to be honest, on one of the phones, the today page looks a bit squashed.
This pic gives me the same impression: Fake
HTC S621 on the pic has 64Mb of RAM and a 200Ghz processor and according to the wm7 requirements S621 will not pass
Just my opinion

THIS IS NOT WINDOWS MOBILE 7. WMExperts confirmed its just a flash app for the commercial.

Well of course it is not the actual OS running on the devices. It is however the concept for the UI MS is currently working on, so the final product may (and I think almost certainly will) look a lot like those images.
Okay chaps and chappesss I am gearing up for my foray into the Android dual-boot wilderness and trying to get stuff sorted.
Whilst still trying to finalise the Android build I wish to use I wanted to clarify BootLoader.
I know of:
-JMZ (the free v4 one!)
-Exceller
-mkskip's
I know with the JMZ I can also use to install Android on first use.
Do the other 2 do that as well?
Does any one offer an advantage in terms of battery life over the other 2 (in the way they load android relative to extent of WinMo still active underneath - if you get what I mean?)
Any major reasons or other features to suggest one over the other?
I like the idea of having a WinMo button to load into Android as per mksip rather than having to power-off and select on start-up (don't know if Exceller does that as well though )
Any others I should consider instead?
Thanks
this is my favorite one

Thanks (I was getting a little lonely in here!)
Could you please tell me why?
hello
I saw that: window mobile app for android on the market
(I cannot post links...)
question: does someone know where I could find a beta version ?
send me a message
Never heard about that I'm gonna check it soon
Are you refering to a windows phone 7 ui/home replacement?
*Example*
I have tried the above one and it's pretty neat. Not able to replace adw ex just yet but have enjoyed following Timo's updates and improvements. And there are a couple of others that I have not tried on the market as well. Not sure if any of the other ones have widget support like the one I linked does.
good day.
not a design like window...
it says : window mobile(dos 1) on your android, it seems to be a recent app on the market.
In the mean time, i dont find it anymore..but there is still this one:

is it a rip-off ?
im sorry im a newbie, i cannot put a link
Ohhh! lol. You mean this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.u100active027&feature=search_result
Hmmm, no comments yet.
good day.
lol yes, but it's very weird, cos 4 hours ago, it was Windows Mobile and now it is this one...I have a big doubt now.
I feel like android desktop modes are really much under-estimated. From android 10 release, all media only talk about foldable phone support, 5G support, dark mode (ok this one is actually pretty cool) but nothing about desktop mode.
But this feature is just so powerfull. Why do you use a computer anymore? Using only one device is so much more convenient and less expensive...
Ok currently there is still one issue that is the software end. If you need a windows-only software you'r stuck... But are you really? If you use a cloud computer like shadow.tech you can get a remote windows desktop with all the windows soft you could ever want!
I made Keydock, a docking station in the form of a keyboard, that gives a really great docking desktop experience.

I would love to hear what you think of it! You can see more pictures on Mod edit: Link removed
I guess it looks sick, not sure why I would use it though.
