I have an HTC touch one of the originals. 128MB ram. This phone is from alltel before they were bought. Anyways I have a few questions. First is, is there an android software to replace the windows mobile software? If not, is there something I can or some sort of OS to replace the windows mobile? Third, is there anyway that I can download windows mobile software if the new software is not to my liking? I know I am asking alot, but i am new to "cracking" a phone if you will and I am trying to learn. I am trying to rid my life of windows as much as possible. Any help is much appreciated. I thank anyone that can and is willing to help.
Welcome aboard,
I don´t think it´s possible to install Android, but you can upgrade your WM version to the newest 6.5 or 6.5.1 and install many apps.
Instructions here:

Also you can visit marketplace section and perhaps do a trade for an Android device.
Good luck,

Hello, I'd link to know if it's possible to upgrade the windows mobile version on smartphones.
For instance if I buy now an HTC touch hd, will I be able to upgrade it when windows mobile 6.5 will be out?
Sorry if this question is silly, but I'm not expert.
thanks
nobody knows at this point

The best chances that you be able to upgrade to a newer ROM are on this site!
So do not hessitate, buy an HTC and enjoy this great forum!!
I was wondering, which edition of Windows Mobile could i use for this phone:TV966
I know, you will probably say this phone doesn't support Windows Mobile, but i contacted the supplier and he told me that the phone itself isn't loaded with Windows Mobile, but it can and does support it. Which version could i use for this phone?
I hope this is the right forum for the question. Thanks in advance!
Since this phone has a touch screen WM pro will be the version to use.
On how to put it on this phone, the easy way would be... Who am i kidding, there is no easy way to put WM on this, unless you port WM from scratch to this
So it isn't possible to load this phone with WM?
As this is an HTC ONLY FORUM I don´t believe you´ll find too much info for your device
Anyway good luck,
Is there a possibility to upgrade this phone when 6.5 comes?

Is it Possible - Yes, provided Eten release a WM 6.5 Rom Upgrade or Some Enterprising Soul makes a WM 6.5 Rom
have a look here http://eten-users.eu/index.php?act=idx
This petition i directed to HTC, Microsoft and all wireless carriers who sell these devices:
We want Windows Phone 6.5 for our HTC Touch Diamond/Pro/HD!
Sign Petition here
Help me so I can help you.
We already have windows 6.5 on our devices. Well, you can if you want it. Mine will have it on it as soon as I get my phone (just ordered it today).

There are people like me preferred original rom which is much more stable and hussle free.
I voted.. i want wm6.5 with TF2.5.
Me tooo
. i want wm6.5 with TF2.5.
When was the last time an online petition worked? Just use a cooked clean ROM.
This is not gona happen.
Because of the fact that IF Microsoft releases wm6.5 for a phone it MUST have the windows button (Thats a button with the windows logo on it)on it.
Same thing if microsoft agrees a a keyboard to be a windows keyboard, u need the windows button (the one left to the ALT button)
So the TP has a Home Button (Symbol like) and all new phones and the ones who had an upgrade had the windows instead of the home button.
So its a thing between the hardware manufacture and microsoft. If u want wm6.5 for ur device make shure that the button is there.
No windows logo on the button no wm6.5 or higher, its that simple.
new dev is stopped on older devices. if you really want it, go do it yourself. theres nothing better about an official rom, they are slower and full of crap. especially branded ones.
another senseless "i want, i want, i want.." thread..
there are hope
http://msmobiles.com/news.php/8744.html
And if you can't wait until then...
EnergyROM Akeo (WM 6.5 with TF3D 2.5) for Touch Pro
Seriously, though: does ANYONE know of ANY online petition that has EVER worked? I strongly doubt it.
This is a complete waste of time and effort. There are already ways to get WM 6.5 on our devices, and that's the best direction to channel time and effort.

yes but people like me aren't that smart as you guys, i'm new like many other people and i can't find quickly what i want to find, like how to upgrade it, all i find is complexed words etc!
there's a good reason why we also have tutorial threads in their respective forums. If you want to upgrade your rom, then you go to the ROM development subforum, read the stickies and if you have any basic questions, google it OR if google doesn't strike, ask on the forums. Plenty of people willing to help.
The fuze is my first winmo phone and I learned it by lurking the forums. I read, searched, tested, and played with the phone until I learned what I need to learn. XDA and fuzemobility are massive treasure chests of information if you're willing to search (logically). Go to the right place and search and you'll find all the info you need. otherwise there are plenty of members out here that are willing to help.
hey guys. i am in need of your help. is there someone out there willing to help me install a new ROM to my HTC Touch PRo? i am more than a virgin in flashing phones. pls, i need step by step instructions and the files needed to be installed. my htc is branded by orange Romania and under warranty. also, is there a problem if it's branded? will i loose the warranty ? i would surely appreciate your help.
pls, anyone? it's annoying to have a good phone with shi*y software
?
??????????
pls, will someone help me, ican't stand windows 6.1!!!
First you need to know if you have a CDMA device or a GSM one (with SIM card)
Then what OS want WM or Android
And then head over Rapahel section where you can find all kinds of guides to do what you need:

Good luck,
first of all, thank you for your reply; no one has replyed since ages... i think it is GSM, i bought it from Orange Romania and it works with a SIM. i have windows 6.1 , an i like the fact that i can edit word documents and so on... i know nothing about the android but i would like to change my rom/software for better battery and performance (it kinda laggs although the memory is at 39% and the windows 6.1 interface is.... -.- horrible to say the leaast)
i would like a guide for stupid people that have never had the chance to temper with their phones software.
best regards, bobby
You really need to spend some time and read a lot, if you use search you will find this tutorial on how to upgrade:
