Windows CE core question

I am thinking about purchasing a windows ce 5 device and was wondering if it possible to install the core player or TCPMP(from a cab) on it? If it not possible what other options do I have? Oh is it possible to upgrade a windows ce 5 core device to the newer windows ce 6? Also any way to skin these devices or something? Looking at the mpio v10.

i only messed a bit around with pure CE devices but some games i had on a sd card had a 50% work ratio
so i'd say that it's pretty likely that TCPMP would work
about rom upgrades then like with wm the rom have to be made for the device to work
so one cant just upgrade with any old CE rom
and wm6 and wm6.1 are still based on CE5 rather then CE6 which wm7 is supposed to be based on so upgrading could give more incompatiblity

Well it is a pmp/mp3 player that is running CE 5 but with a custom interface or something. But the devices codec support is a little on the weak side. It is called the MPIO V10, there is also a similar device called the iRiver w7. But you are saying it may not be possible to install Windows CE 6?

am'd saying that with all devices rom have to be custom made spc for the device
and i'm saying that wm6.1 still being based on ce5 so using ce6 could mean incompatability as no wm have as of yet been based on ce6

But I didn't mention anything about WM6 or 6.1? But thank you. Is there like a nice skin or something similar to TCPMP for CE?

Win XP min system requirements for PPC

But why would you want WM on a notebook? Windows desktop OS is much more advanced! If Windows Phone 7 Series was installed including multitasking possibilities, it would be great though.

[Q] windows 6 software on windows phone 7

hello
can window phone 6 softwares b installed on windows 7 phone?
or can i install windows 6.5 on htc mozart??????

no and no...

Can't get to Native APIs with 3rd party apps, so not.
They don't even support .NET CF in WP7...
So, no...
And if your rom has all the drivers I suppose you can install WM 6.5 on it. I can believe it's installable on i.e. an HD7 due to the hardware similarities with the HD2, but it would be hard as hell to use. The button requirements are different and you'd have to do some modding to remap buttons to make the phone usable without ridiculous amounts of frustration...

AFAIK this can't be done. Nobody has ever ported WM6.5 to a WP7 device, and I don't believe anyone is working on it either

It's possible, but it's just not worth it. People are trying to put WP7 on their HD2, not WP7 on their HD7. Most consider that a downgrade and will not even bother working on it. Not to mention the hardware is basically the same with a worse build so you aren't really gaining anything by doing that

[Q] Back to Windows Mobile 6.5 !

Hi Everybody !
you all know how strange it might be some requests form your boss but this is the most strange one !
My Boss has a system that work on WM 6.5 only and doesn't work on WM 7 and he requested that I should Provide him with 40 New WM 6.5 devices !
you know that they are not available currently So I figured out that I should buy new WM 7 Devices and Flash it Back to WM 6.5 !
I think theoretically this is possible but have anyone tried it ?!!!
I want to Try it on HTC 7 pro Device , Could anyone tell me wha the steps I need to do that ?
any other suggested Devices ? I only want it to be New ,with QWERTY keypad and I can install WM 6.5 on it !
Thank you all in Advance.

I don't think this will be simple, your best bet will be buying old stock of a WM 6.5 device. Many sellers on Ebay will still stock them I am sure.
Windows Phone 7 is a completely different product to WM 6.5, it is not just an upgrade. Think of it as a completely different product, because it really is. The OS and the hardware are very tightly integrated in mobile devices so you will probably have more trouble backporting a new WM7 phone to 6.5 that you will rewriting the system he needs, assuming it is his won work. Have you checked to see if the system runs on another OS such as blackberry or android?

Thank you for help.
The System works on on WM 6.5 !
if it is not possible to install WM 6.5 on a WM 7 device Do you think it can be done on an Android Device?

everything is possible. if you can run ubuntu on android y not windows??

Theoretically it is possible.
but how to do that practically ? this is the problem !!!

HD2 is almost hardware similair to HD7. There is also experimentally the way to update HD2 to WP7 from HD7. But HD2 is still native WM6.5.3 device.

Until cottula Didn´t release anything then you are gone. HD2 is "Native WM 6.5" Device So you can do on it upgrade! but you can´t downgrade to WM 6.1.. Same should be on HD7
Try to get HD2 in shop..

Practically yes! At this moment not! May be never too.
As I told - HD2 and HD7 have basically same hardware, but it doesnt mean that firmware from HD2 will work on HD7 without changes.
WP7 is already ported from HD7 to HD2, of course with some limitations and bugs in functionality.
To buy native wp 6.5 device (like HD2) via ebay is I think the best solution for you case.

I can make 6.1 for HD2 as I did For native wm 6.5.3 samsung b7350 by downgrading it to wm 6.1.
Its because wm 6.X and less has almost same kernel so you can update from 5.0 to 6.5 and vise versa if you know how. Also you can use all programs from wm 2003 on wm 6.5...
WP7 is totally new OS - new kernel, and is not compatible with older apps..
Believe or dont- MS has spent many years by sitting at one place without serious improvements to their mobile products.. till Google came up with its Android for kids and made revolution. Temporary! MS will fight back at the end of 2011 with New WP update on new Nokia with multicore.
Nokia put their last hope to survive into WP7 as Microsoft. So do they win or fail together we will se later
