Thank you for your awesome work!
Llywelyn

Forget about it...

Thank you for the quick reply ! (or should I say dobriden? )
That's quite a deception, as I saw that the hardware was supported. Maybe an older version of WM should work?

It is not just about hardware SoC, it is about software - you need some bootloader (eboot, or as htc uses amss+spl), and many other stuff, which must be compatible with drivers for winmo and what not. Even porting WP7 to HD2 is easier IMHO .

Thank you for the reply,
We might have an access to the bootloader as we have root access to the partition!
Anyway, I'm ready to betatest any work someone could have done
