Pantech Duo roms/alternative OS

Does anyone know of any development being done to port Android or any alternative OS to the Pantech Duo or has anyone cooked any other roms for it? Stock Windows Mobile is much too sluggish on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I vaguely remember there being a Pantech Duo sub-forum on XDA. No?

Just reminding you we will deal with HTC devices.
you might not get an answer at all.
sorry

Thanks. I do appreciate the reminder. XDA is the best place on the internet that deals with Rom development so I was hoping someone might know something about the Duo. Thanks again.

Sorry.. i can't personally help.. hope someone can tho

I just bought a Pantech duo. Its actually not a bad little phone. I figure they allowed the Palm Treo and Sony Erricson here, hopefully they will allow the Pantech.
One problem I found though, is there is no way to get to the ROM image in the install file. Winrar or 7 zip won't open it.
If Pantech allowed their phones to be hacked like HTC does, they might be more popular.
As it stands, there is hardly any info out there for this phone.

Hx2495b help

Need some help pimping out my old school ipaq hx2495b if anyone can help this would be greatly appreciated looking to make it more finger friendly.
currently trying to get the fingerkeyboard from this site to work on there and apparently my .net compact framework is old as well just wondering if anyone can help me with this current situation and if you can point me in the direction of some cool programs as well. Anything to replace tcmp as well as media player and ie trying to find something that works great. Tried the new opera and it kept freezing the ppc so if anyone can help that would be great.

Welcome to the forum
Not sure if this model is made by HTC as we dedicate this forum to HTC devices.
Perhaps other member can point you into the rigth direction
Good luck,

Its actually made by hp and to tell you the truth i have no idea what htc really is. Im sorry though but alot of the programs for most of the htc stuff has worked on it previously as well as currently and ive not really had any problems with it. I just want to make it more finger friendly as ive said before anyways. Im glad you guys will still accept me here no problems. I would be greatly appreciative of help with this matter no matter what though.

This is HTC and in general what XDA-DEVS is about:
Welcome to xda-developers.com
This site is about certain PDA-phones, made by a firm called HTC in Taiwan. Their makers named them 'Wallaby', 'Himalaya', 'Blue Angel', 'Wizard' and 'TyTN', but almost nobody knows them by those names. The mobile provider O2 sells them under the brand-name 'XDA', and that's what we had in our hands first. They're also known as Qtek, MDA, SX-56, Hermes and many, many other names.
Since we develop software for it, we need information, and nobody seemed eager or ready to give us what we needed. So we 'reverse-engineered' the devices, found a lot of information, and shared it with the world. But as our site grew we realised that lots of ordinary users were also suffering from a lack of support. They started using the xda-developers forum to communicate and before long the forum was as much a user forum as it was a developer forum.
We hope that you will enjoy this site and find it as useful as we do. We encourage you to donate or otherwise support this site. Of course absolutely all proceeds from donations will benefit this community.
You are more than welcome!
Just wanted to let you know that we are HTC devices only
Good luck,

tis there noone that can help me at least with the .net com framework stuff.

Can some one post on how to change the .net compact framework it does run windows mobile 5 the only difference between this and a phone is the phone part everything else is the same so if someone can please help me with this I would greatly be appreciative.

ROM Comparison chart

I thought I'd leave you all with the ROM comparisons that I did when I was actively using my Universal. Half way through I upgraded to 128 MB, so this is reflected in some of the memory readings.
These are my own personal findings - I tested programs on the ROMs that I was interested in. Perhaps I'm opening a can of worms here, but I hope you find it useful.

Thanks Jonny!
Great information, will add to the FAQ
How do you feel with your new Rhodium?

My new rhodium is great - I'm not looking back! (Oops, perhaps I shouldn't have posted that here!). I know it doesn't run WP7, but there is certainly life in it yet (and I have a lot of bought programs which run on WM6.5 only, so I'm quite happy).

I enjoyed too my Rhodium!
And moved to Leo was a big shock for me coming from a real keyboard line devices...
I expect to go back to keyboard devices soon as I find a similar spec HTC device

Jonny could You paste this file with .xls extention? I don't have Office 2007 and i cannot get into it
Thx in advance

Ok, updated first post to include excel 2003 version Rom Compare3.xls

very useful information!thanks

Great
OMG...
You HAVE used your Uni buddy!
And I thought I was a serious user...still using though...nobody in my town knows what a 128 MB Uni means to me...will just keep it till I grow old.
I'm waiting for a really good WP7 piece...checked one HD7...but the software glithces.. or shortcomings are too many....let's see.

Hey kalya! nice to see you around
Perhaps would be wise to wait for Touch Pro 7

Great job!! Obrigado!

what next?
I don't know Orb...which would be my WP7 handset.
As always , win mo are dull,very down to earth,mature looking gadgets...they will never be fun and I accept that....
Just waiting for a great hardware & the new OS's perfect synchronisation.
Uni was it...we got maximum from it...but my country's mobile network never caught up with the handset.
Just waiting for it...hoping...HTC would almost deliver and I know XDA members will make it perfect.

Yes it´s true...
I have played with WP7 on my Leo and decided to go back to WM/Android as it´s to damn closed platform it seems like apple...
If WM is really dying which I doubt I think I go to Android instead...
Please let me know what you finally decide to upgrade
Cheers,

Maybe Galaxy Tab if nothing good comes out in the near future.
We win mo users don't want a new OS or high config devices as much we need really new --FRESH-- apps,but maybe the new apps reqire both the things..OS+new hardware.
Otherwise I stll have some of the handsets in my sig(and some nokia ones also)

Dell Axim x51v .. looking for 6.1 or 6.5 ROM!!

Hello everybody,
I have been searching for the last two to three weeks looking for either the Lenny SH 6.1 or 6.5 WM ROM. All of the old links from earlier posts here on xda were all hosted by RapidShares... and of course we all know they are long gone. If anyone has a copy they would be willing to share I would greatly appreciate the help. Or, if you know where online I can find it that would be equally amazing. Thank you folks!!

Anyone???
Anyone? I know someone out there must still use this model pocketpc

I'm in the same boat. I did found this thread.. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=586875
I just found this site: http://www.asellertool.com/manual/1/en/topic/upgrade-dell-x51-x51v-pda-to-rom-a12
But I'm having issues with loading the image into the phone.
I get a blank screen, no ROM listed. Maybe you should try and let me know if it works for you?
