I'm thinking about changing my current TP2 for the upcoming HTC Desire but I have a concern : I have a windows mobile app (an encyclopedia) that runs exclusively on windows mobile os and it doesn't exist on android. Is there a winmo emulator on android within which I could run winmo apps ? A kind of Ubuntu Wine perhaps ?
(I searched about this and found nothing...)
Thanks in advance

Wine by far predates Ubuntu!
But to answer your question: No.
There isn't an emulator to run WinMo on Android.
There are plenty of encyclopedias for Android though, do none of them have what you want?

Unfortunately, the application I'm using on WinMo is a non-public kind of encyclopedia (business stuff). Perhaps I'll have to wait for the company that made the application to port it to Android ....

Hey guys,
I am a programmer at heart and have developed in many different languages(C,C++,Java,PHP,ASP...). I want to begin developing applications for the Touch Pro (WM 6.1) but I have no idea where to start. My biggest fear is downloading the WM 6.1 emulator messing around with it for weeks only to find out that's not what I should have been using. Can anyone give me some pointers as to where I should start? Are there any tutorials out there for programming for this phone?
I also noticed that the WM 6.1 emulator didn't support the 480x640 resolution that the HTC Touch Pro uses...
Thanks!

I use Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 + Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK + Windows Mobile 6.0 SDK to develop....and this book "Programming Microsoft Windows CE .NET, Third Edition". Its for c/c++, from basics to create drivers, services, etc

Do you know of an emulator for the HTC Touch Pro? I downloaded a program that I know works, and was able to compile and run it on my phone but when I tried to run it with the emulator it was missing the HTCSensorSDK.dll file... something fairly new i presume. I tried default emulator and the Windows Mobile 6 Professional VGA emulator but I was wondering if there was one available for this phone yet.
I want to know the same thing
If/when you find an answer to this I would love to hear about it or see a post on it. Thanks.
There's no such thing as a software-only emulator for the Raphael's hardware, that would be incredibly complex to create for such a task
What the developers use is called a "Board Support Package" - it basically contains all the raphaels hardware, in a PCI card that gets installed in a slot in the computer.. that way all the drivers, etc can be loaded and everything can be tested as it would be on the phone itself.
There's pretty much not a chance in heck of you getting one of those (although if you do, send one my way, I would love to have one )
The emulators are useful for testing generic software that does not tie into any of the features that require raphael hardware. There should also be emulator images to support all resolutions (qvga square, qvga, vga, not sure about wvga/wqvga)
And, here's the link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...52-f89e-4354-84ce-5d19c204498a&displaylang=en
Looks like it does in fact come with wqvga and wvga emulators
Note that you can use an emulator kitchen to add SOME of the htc stuff to the ROM image, but none of the drivers that support the htc hardware will function.
my colleague has an Android HTC and found a tricorder app for it
NO WAY Android is better than windows, so anyone has a nice tricorder app for WinMo?

I had one in 2002. that's long before android ;-) You might tell this your friend... hd2 is far beyond that stuff, hehe

lol....if it is nice or not dunno...if it works on leo dunno but you can try this one:

Tricorder
A mate of mine has this for his Android phone (HTC Desire).
It is brilliant all the sensors actually work.
The only windows mobile apps I can find are about 10 years old and so lame and outdated they are not worth the waste of time. They were written when all the sensors my HD2 has did not exist on things like Compaq handhelds.
Its time someone wrote one for the modern Winmo devices. Shame my programming skills don't stretch to that. Nor does my development environment ( the free Microsoft lite IDE wont program for the mobile environment desktop only sadly).

And the latest fully paid rather expensive visual studio 2010 won't program for windows mobile either!!! Pinch me I must be dreaming...

I would like a tricorder app for WinMo on HD2. Is there a app?
Thanks for the help
A n00b question..
ENVIRONMENT
Visual Studio 2008 C++
MS Mobile Pro SDK
MS Mobile OS 6.x
I want to add the HTC HD2 to the Microsoft Device emulator.
I got Josh's .NBH file and tried to convert it to a .BIN, but the resulting file could not be read by the emulator.
Is there someplace I can find the .BIN (preferably with the skin (.XML and .PNG/.BMP files))??
Thanks so much.
As far as I know, there is no way to emulate a device rom using the MS Windows Mobile emulator.
Oh, thank you, Steven; that is what I have read online, but I was hoping that it was not true. :/
Could someone be so kind as to point me to emulation alternatives, preferably accompanying MS Visual Studio?
Yesterday I basically found what I needed with the MS Mobile 6.5 SDK (includes WVGA).
This might sound like a "silly" question but is there anyway to maybe run a Windows application on Android? Maybe through a VM or something?
no silly question at all!
Absolutely not a silly question.
I think it would be very nice to have the possibility of installing WinMo apps on Android.
does anyone know a way to do this?
I don't think the next is possible,
but would there be a way to get dual boot (or something more or less similar)
on an android phone? Like Gen.Y DualBoot does with WinMo devices, but then the other way round!
Bumping. Have WinMo on android or even being able to run WinMo apps would be awesome.
Wow, dude it'll be awesome if I could run WWP, TCPMP and Lingvosoft dict on my Android
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA app while pooping
I'd run it...
..if only to sync my phone to Outlook!
I don't know enough about WINE, but would it be possible to implement such a thing in Android? For those of you that don't know about WINE, it runs Windows programs natively in Linux, without emulation.

Could be possible with some sort of Wine for Mobile but would be tricky as it is very unheard of... Im sure some dev out there is capable of such a task
As far as I know there isn't any PC emulator on Windows phone 7 because Microsoft haven't released a native C++ SDK for WP7 and PC emulators has written in C++.
I want to buy a new phone but I don't know to buy a Windows mobile or a Windows phone device?
I need a PC emulator which is not available for WP7 but it is for WM (QEMU) but WM is going to die!
What do you suggest? Buy a WP7 phone or WM6.5?

would definitely not be a question for me. I suggest to buy a WP7 device.

wow i am surprised that you are still considering windows mobile at this stage . its like choosing between windows 7 and XP don't you think?
There is an emulator included in the SDK
windows phone for sure
Androïd ?
Ok I'll just be leaving now...
