FTFY
But at the moment we do not have the necessary things in place to dual boot.
I want to bump this thread.
I would like to know if anyone is working on a dualboot spcifically for windows 7.
Rumors as they are are pointing that Windows 8 will be tablet friendly or atleast touch screen friendly. I would like to see something like this come out for the Xoom if for nothing more than proof of concept for now.
You want Win7 on ARM? huh?

Will we be able to boot ARM Ubuntu with an SD card when 3.1 is released?

Windows 7 doesn't support ARM........windows 8 will.........so you could probably see a windows 8 xoom.....but windows 7 on any honeycomb device.......I don't think so....

No not really. Ubuntu is the easiest of all the linux distros to get running, best tip I could give you is google everything, get on IRC and RTFM (read the ****ing manual).
Personally I prefer Fedora 14 running in a Virtualbox VM on Windows 7 x64.

Why are you using Windows 8? It's a developer preview. Use Windows 7 x64 SP1 if you want to use a stable version of Windows.

I can't get it to install :/. I tried to install inside of windows and when I try to boot it I get a red screen and doesn't go away and when I try to dual boot with a LiveUSB it hangs on here. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Hi, I am interested in starting some custom ROM work for our device. I am just looking for a little bit of direction on where to start. I understand things are a bit more complicated with our locked bootloader, but I know there is still a lot to be done. What are some good places to start tweaking performance? How about graphics and theming? if there is anything else I should know that would be great. I am not an extremely experienced programmer, but I have some experience and I am fairly comfortable tweaking system stuff. Lastly, Is there any way to get an emulater going for the A2? this would be very helpful for development to save the pain of boot loops and errors on our real device. thanks for everyone's help! Hopefully our development will take off for this phone once we get the bootloader bypass working or get it fully unlocked.
This needs moved to general.

I just want to get one thing out there. If you want to develop you will NEED Linux. It makes things a lot easier than using windows.

Arch is pretty awesome if you have the patience/time to set it up. It's not that hard, just takes some work to figure it out

You'll also need a ROM kitchen to decompile ROM's, or you could just extract the zip and rezip... only problem is that if you make any major changes you need to write a new updater-script...
Is there something I can use to dual boot Ubuntu touch and Android with? I don't want to waste my time reflashing Android after using Ubuntu touch for 10 minutes.
Thanks

It's not going to happen unless you port it, and it's basically the same question as "I want ios on my phone so bad, how can I get this?
If you want ios buy an iPhone.
If you want windows buy a windows phone.
There's a reason we all don't have either one of those.

I think can port it but not entirely sure I have never done a port before but I really want to attempt it. I will need help and support and questions answered. I am a windows phone rom developer. I know I'm not the only one who wants to see this.
That's why I start this thread and ask what is the first step?
I know that we need a dump and drivers to work with. and something to cook with.
Well I suppose a windows compatible boot loader would be first then porting the drivers from android to windows this phone has full source released so your not going to get any thing new for it.
The thing would be is getting windows to recognize this as valid hardware.
Also I don't want windows 8 on my phone I have used it on my laptop it sucked making me think about going to Linux since Microsoft has decided touch interfaces are the future and made windows go full retard.

If you honestly want real development help try posting this In the developer section, rephrase the question a little better though so you get some real responses.

wait what? windows 8 and windows phone 8 are totally different OS's ?
why is our current boot loaders not compatible?
what is needed to make them?
im guessing your talking about clockwork recovery and twrp?

I was talking about the whole thing. The bootloader and partitions are not compatible you are going from android to the mobile version of windows 8.
You said earlier about winmo and win 8 being totally different android and winmo is also totally different.
get a launcher or theme.
thats probably as close as youre going to get if youre actually serious.

Since Microsoft released the recover IMG for RT http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40810 ad the LEAKED RTM
Maybe there is a way to install this in any arm tablet

What the difference between this image file and the Windows RT image file that Windows RT user create with recovery image backup? I think it the same.
Yes, it was always possible to install RT on any ARM tablet with a modern CPU and enough RAM. You'll only need to write UEFI and needed drivers yourself, that's all.
But as there is only one person in the world who've managed to write UEFI from zero for an unsupported device (Cotulla for HD2) - don't expect that RT would ever appear for your device.
You gave a man so much hope, and then took it all away.

Yes if he makes the UEFI opensource the whole community could help developing it.

Not really, UEFI is specific to each individual device chipset so his HD2 UEFI wont work on anything but an HD2.
Maybe it can be made to work on the NVIDIA Tegra NOTE 7 reference design since it is Tegra 4. NVIDIA tends to make unlocking the bootloader very easy, like with SHIELD.
So no hopes of this working on Samsung ARM Chromebook?

RT officially doesnt support the enoxys chipset at all. Snapdragon and tegra only, was meant to support OMAP at one point but TI pulled out.
