[Q] Dual Boot Windows Phone 7 OS and Android? - General Questions and Answers

My big question is, is this possible? Is there anything about the new Windows Phone 7 OS that would keep us from being able to dual boot it on an Android Phone (specifically the Droid X)? I'm never going to switch over to Windows Phone 7, but I wouldn't mind enjoying some of it's features occasionally.

[Q] Windows 7 Phone OS on Android?

Hey guys.
I had a look at the Windows 7 Phone and I really like the OS. Is there a ROM or something I can download for my HTC Desire GSM that will allow it to run Windows 7 Phone Os?
Thanks.
Btw. I'm rooted.
Sounds like something fun to try at least. Have you looked at metro ui or launcher 7? They are pretty cool and look good on my nexus one.

there is a app for android to use windows phone on android but its not the windows os. am looking for it too but no luck hope you find it
If you get the HTC HD2 you can run windows mobile 6.5.x, windows phone 7, or android 1.6 to 2.3 on it. (and if you really want you can get windows 95 and windows xp going on it too..haha)
I've done all of the above with mine - works great.

[Q] Is there an easy way to make my Android Phone look like Windows 7?

You may notice that I said Windows 7, not windows phone 7. That's perfectly correct. I have come to love Windows 7, and would love to have it on my phone as well. Is there a free, easy way to do this? How? I don't want some crappy theme. No stupid answers, please!
Hey, I know there is a Custom Rom that makes your Phone look like Windows Phone 7, but I have no idea if there is also one for Windows7..
I hardly know anything about Android, since I got an Windows Phone you might want to try it in the Android Q/A's where the Android "experts" will answer your Question..

Windows Phone 8

Hey,
Heard a rumor Win phone 8 can theoretically run on any arm-based smartphone
Do you think it will be possible porting it to our device?
Same answer as with Windows Phone 7.

[Q] Mac User new to the boards

Do I even bother trying to do any fun rooting of my Xoom / Moto X or Nexus one from my MacAirbook on the IOSX side. Or should I go straight to a dual boot Windows OS?

Windows XP ? Impossible not going to happen, not worth the effort.
Windows 8 RT, Possible, not worth the effort..
Recommendation: If you need or really want to have both, buy a Lenovo or Dell WIndows 8.1 tablet for less than $200 and you will be much happier.
Development Level: Lazy N00b

So you want to Dualboot Windows XP and Android ?
May I know which device you've ?
One thing is sure, YOU CANT DO THAT ON A TAB
Many members including myself got idea of running Windows 8 x86 on Tab 3 10.1 since it have a 32Bits kernel, but nothing happened.
Never
I think this will never happen, because of mainly two things:
1. No drivers available, you would have to write them all cause there are no preconfigured ones.
2. Windows is closed source.
You would need to be a Dev at Samsung, otherwise you will never have an insight into the specific hardware of those devices. Samsung but also Intel (in case of the 10.1) don't publish most of their documents.
No.
hey,
if you want to really understand what windows xp will be like run it through an emulator.
now, don't get me wrong, i loved windows xp, hated everything before it hated everything after it.
apple is bull****.
Linux is beautiful.
Android is commerce riddled slop and needs to die a horrible flamey cinematic death accompanied by bad lighting
and a third rate orchestra trying to play anything while being fed into the woodchipper of your choice.
anyway the point outside of my ranting is, maybe yes but seriously no.
as soon as i figure out how to get a decent lightweight linux distro running on this thing then i might be able to
get wine going. better to get a windows-able tablet pc and dual-boot android x86.
