I've seen a lot of custom roms and Android software for windows mobile. But are there others like maemo?
I've seen a BlackBerry os on a HTC Diamond floating around on youtube and other sites. I've seen Sybian s60 on HTC P3470 Pharos.
Just would like to know if its possible to get maemo also?

Is there a cook rom for the G1 Android to have the HTC TouchFLO 3D with Windows Mobile® 6.1 Professional Operating System?
because there's already G1 Oprating Systems on HTC Touch HD/Diamond/and Touch Pro.
Just wondering...
android is an operating system...and windows mobile is an operating system...
what do you mean that there's already android on htc touch hd and such? people have tried porting android to them which shuts down windows mobile and boots android...albeit a very buggy android.
touchflo3d in android is not possible. its written for windows mobile. something SIMILAR could be possible, but i don't think we'll ever port touchflo 3d TO android...i have it and i think i prefer android to it (touchflo 3d is a today plugin for windows mobile).
oh forget it
ok is there something similar to touchflow 3d that you can put on an android device because that would make any andriod device great

SenseUI created by HTC for its latest models (Hero, Tatoo), has some TouchFlo flavour in it, but IMO it is even better than that!
You can get that look on your G1, either by using a theme over a cooked ROM, or by flashing a HERO rom that will give you the full package...
Why would you buy a android phone if you want windows mobile
Can we get the iPhone OS on our G1 too? <-- Sarcasm so please don't flame me
Start asking your questions in the right sub-forum (Q&A) (Theme) or even in (General), or simply search.......Final result will be a ban for you up too 3 days.
Thanks
Hello,
I have a Htc Fuze p4600 with carrier At__ . ( You know who)
I was wondering if anyone knows how to download the lastest and greatest OS 6.5 on my devise ? Ive been to to the Htc website and my carriers website and cannot find an upgrade for it , any help would be mostly appreciated, and Is there a possibility for WM7 for this devise as thanks
Mr.nobody
Officially, Touch Pros' & Fuzes' don't support Windows Mobile 6.5, but several modern custom ROMs have flawless Windows Mobile 6.5 builds, along with extras. Just peek through the Touch Pro/Fuze ROM Development fora, you'll find several custom ROMs: TAEL, Energy, etc.
I recommend starting here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008
Agent Zach is right in that there is no carrier or OEM upgrade to 6.5 and his recommendations are spot on. As to the question about Windows Phone 7 I can guarantee you there will not be an OEM or carrier upgrade to this platform. It's further unlikely to see custom or cooked ROMs for the touch pro / fuze for WP7 as the core OS is designed around much more stringent hardware requirements that our device does not meet.

Greetings All,
I am a newbie to any sort of forum and I wish to express my thanks in advance for your help.
I have been a WM (HTC Tilt WM 6.1) user for 4 years. Just recently I have been having issues with my phone and I need to purchase a new phone, but I totally confused on what to purchase.
My Tilt has the following programs installed, that I use on a daily basis:
Voice Command, Note2Self, SPB Wallet, SK Tools, Skype, Handy Shopper, in addition to the WM Office suite.
These are the programs that work well for me and I am comfortable with.
My question is this>
Can a widows 7 Phone do all the above or do I find a used WM 6.1 or 6.5 phone…will I like WM 6.5 better?
Or dare I say it…an Android?
Since your a windows mobile user and I'm guessing your most familiar with that os I suggest the touch pro 2 or the HD2. The touch pro 2 because it's a user friendly device, nice sized keyboard and purely reliable. The hd2 is also a nice pick it has a 4.3in screen an extremely fast processor and the touch is pretty sensitive/similar to the iPhone. You can go to htc.com to check the specs and see what you like best.
These are both 6.5 wm capable phones and the HD2 can flash wp7. I personally like winmo over android because of office suite but android is not bad either.
thanks for the info...what does "flash wp7" mean?
The HD2 has a very active dev community and one of the things they have accomplished is to port other operating systems to the device. So you have a choice now between keeping it on the stock WM6.5, or 'flashing' an alternative OS like WP7 or Android.
If you bought one yourself you would have the added bonus of being able to use the apps that you are familiar with.
Thanks for your thoughts.
What about the new HTC Inspire...any thoughts?
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
