Hi. I own HTC Touch Pro T7272, i DID read the sticky, but I am still confused (may be because of my bad english). I have WM 6.5.3 right now, bit it's more and more laggy. I found out, that Android could be installed ony my device? If yes, would it be faster then WM 6.5? My father has Android and I like it more. If you would be so nice and post here link with guide where download and how to install Android into my phone? Thank you
Right now, I'd stick with winmo. If you find winmo is laggy, then installing Android is not the answer. I like it as a means to play around with but a part from that, nothing else seems to really fascinate me about Android, yet. Yeah, you can brag that you are running an OS other than what comes natively but over-all development is really slow for our device at the moment. If you like Android, my best suggestion is to get an Android native device. I'm sure this isn't the answer you were looking for but just thought I'd share my expereince with running Android on an older device.
for me i think android for touch pro is still have many bugs now. I have try to install froyo fx06 bundle, for the first time look i think it works good then windows but after a day i found that it drain battery, and sometimes wifi error and i need to restart my phone back to get it work, and the real problem is sometimes it's freeze. maybe we just need to wait a little while for someone release the new version.
p/s sorry if my english not good enough

Dear friends
Im a proud owner of a HTC TOUCH ENHACED or HTC ELFIN.
It would be possible to run android os on it?
Today i have watched a video where some guys runs in a touch screen phone a demo of android and this phone was a very slow one (ti omap 800, 64 ram and rom) and the os worked quite fine...
what dou you think about it?
cheers
with time yes now not likely i would keep an eye on

Im new to the pda world (ive seen the light over super mobile phones like the N95 I currently own), Ive just been given old xda IIi and can appreciate the benifit already.
Ive just watched the U-tube videos on Android and I can see the future, what an amazing OS, there throwing down the gautlet with the offer of 10 million quite an incentive.
this OS on my Himalaya... that would be ultimate WIN
Being a ridiculous n00b here, I'm wondering the same thing, have just ordered the Ted Baker (Gay Purple) Touch on Win Mo 6 - and have no experience of installing OSs etc. on mobiles - how likely/practical is it going to be for me to put something like Android on it, when the time comes?
Don't worry, i'm sure you'll find a good tutorial as sson as android becomes available for the touch or any other PDA.
Actually flashing isn't that difficult, as long as you take yours time to follow every step. Otherwise you'll brick your device
Hi all,
I read through a few sites and the forum to research about my phone and i am looking to make it not so laggy/sluggish.
I am from Australia and is on Telstra network and my HTC Diamond2 is very sluggish and so laggy, it can barely function. Chance upon android articles and reading about rave reviews about how Android performs faster than Windows Mobile 6.5.
I have ZERO computer programming technical abilities. Just a chemist looking to fix her phone. So, this may sounds like requesting baby sitting service, but if anybody is kind enough, please direct me to the builds that are stable with Diamond2.
Google maps, text msging and bluetooth (which at the moment does not work) are very important functions to me, so I am looking for a build that have functions similar to these working well.
thanks so much in advance.
check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509493
there is currently no fully working android build on the TD2 as there are problems with the drivers, android is not a complete replacement for windows mobile tho as you need to boot android from the win mob enviroment, plus as a owner of a android and win mob device i prefer windows over android any day of the week, maybe you should try some system optimisation software like sk tools, pocket mechanic or tweeks 2k2 as they can all improve system stability also try a cooked rom from one of the great TD2 cooks here on xda as alot of them out perform the stock HTC roms
Thank you so much.
Yes, i am just looking to really optimise my phone as I am pretty much stuck with this phone unless I can afford a new handset straight out.
Again, thank you for the link. I have no great computing abilities but I like to DIY. Will definitely look around more.
Thanks so much again.
you're really asking a question that will result in an answer that you just won't like. Its basically not feasible to have android on your phone, and if it ever were to be somewhat available, it would not be stable and it would require significant tinkering and knowledge to have a half-ass working android Diamond2.
your phone is nice...there's definitely a way for you to sell it off locally and purchase an android phone.
Hi
Is there a working Android distr. for the Advantage X7510? and if so where can I find it
Thanks...
No there is not.
How about dual boot.
I have not tried it or read it up yet, but it looks promising.
Gen.Y DualBOOT v1.0.6.0[W|Q|VGA][CAB|EXT]
Have fun!
Edit:
This one seems important too:
[prj][XDANDROID][android.2.0.1|2.1][31.5.10]2.1 AOSP system update
I'll love to dump Windows Mobile and install Android 2.1 in our Athenas
Thanks for the reply, but I still cant figure out which one to use....
i'm learning how to put everything together as we speak.
once i get everything working i'll write a step by step guide for our phone, but for now lets keep our fingers crossed
i'm tired of WM6/7 looking forward to use Android 2.1 as the default OS, specially now that the market is mostly Google vs. Apple (iphone vs. Aphones [Android phones])
Windows Mobile is being left in the dust, as well as Palm and other phone OSes.
HTC already has many Android 2.1 phones on the market, so it's simple logic to follow that direction as most of the drivers should be compatible, even if it's not some one will be able to help and develop a driver for "Linux" Android.
Nice....
I am looking forward to see what you have made.
Android for X7510
I too am waiting for this major improvement to my X7510 device. Looking forward to testing for you anytime. Just let me know when you're ready!
Cheers,
Van
Reviving the Advantage X7510 ...
Hi,
I've put my X7510 aside for some months waiting for something better than WM!
Android seems to be up to the task, but, it seems not much is being done for this excellent phone ...
Anyone has any updates in that regard?
Thanks to all,
AAA
I bought an HTC Pro 2 yesterday, and Windows Mobile is horrible. It freezes, using the internet is nothing like an Iphone, and this morning it cut off by itself and would not power on at all no matter what, and the battery was full. I had to take out the battery and reinsert it to get the phone to come on. Soft Reset would not work.
Is there a way to install Android 2.2 on my phone?
Thanks
dude, trust me, the TP2 is great device. Find a nice WM ROM and install it, this will fix most of your problems.
as for surfing, I find Opera Mobile more than capable...it's fast and displays content in great way. Opera mini is a great alternative too.
Regarding your question: check this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=589
you can dual booth WM & Android on your TP2
I personally like WM more. It's much easier to customize.
I recently installed Android on my kaiser, and I'm starting to like it..maybe I'll install it later on my HD2 and see how it really works on fast device...
Remember that these ports will not be without any problems, they are not made by HTC, so is you are looking for stability, go for a good WM ROM. This will be the best thing to do.
Check out ppcgeeks.com, they have a ton of CDMA ROMs for windows mobile, I personally have BigNaDads Sense ROM and it is my favorite by a long shot, very stable and comes with alot of things preconfigured....
just bought a touch diamond whats best windows or android & is it easy to flash back to a windows rom if i try and dont like android... and what roms do folk on here like best on this phone ? opinions please
wELL IT SEEMS NO ONE HAS THE TIME OR INCLINATION TO REPLY ON HERE ANY MORE? I WONDERD IF ITS CHANGED THAT MUCH,FOLK USED TO HELP BUT NO REPLYS,GUESS I WILL JUST HAVE TO STAB IN THE DARK TO SEE WEATHER ANDROID IS FOR ME OR TO STAY WITH WM,whoops please excuse the caps lock was on..
It's only been 24hrs, please be patient when asking a question for the answer.
Re: WM vs Android:
Android does not work 100% on WM devices so it's best to check the Android thread and see what isn't working and if you can live without it.
Alot of Android bases can work via haret on SD card so no need to flash, the nand versions you can flash back to WM via bootloader.
Make sure your Hard-SPL'd.

- You'll get better answers in the Diamond section.
- You didn't even say which model/carrier Diamond you have. GSM Diamond is different from Sprint/Alltel Diamond is different from Verizon Diamond. They are NOT interchangeable.
- Android for CDMA/Sprint Diamond is not really ready for prime time. Biggest problem is battery drain.
- You can try it WITHOUT flashing... just d/l the needed files and run it.
- The best forum to discuss ROMs for the Diamond is on www.ppcgeeks.com
- My favorite ROM for the Sprint Diamond is MightyRom 4. It is WM6.1. I see no point to WM6.5 for the Diamond.
OK thanks & sorry for impationtness would put it down to a bad day at the hair dressers or some thing but being bald/shaved that wont work so i just apologise ,yes i think looking about that i will stick with wm, i have seen the energy rom on the tube i like the look of that , the icons look real good and it seems smooth, so will have a look at some other roms and see, in an ideal world i would just get the handset of choise but i have to search for auction bargins to get my phones.. thanks Ali
