Would be super cool if people would support this phone like the HD2 (being able to run android and WM6.5/7). Just throwing it out there... Would have bought a HD7 but waiting for the software to do a little catch up. Thinking when mango is released it will be that point where it had matured and everyone would be content using it day to day.

That would be cool.
I like WM 2003 SE.
i would be interested in a dual boot if possible for sure
Would be cool, but probably won't happen because of the massive undertaking that would have to happen. Wp7 doesn't even have drivers for dual core phones..the drivers is what would make the whole thing a headache

Launcher 7 and android is a match made. There's plenty of apps that mimic wp7 looks.

I would totally be up for that! I really like both operating systems. If the browser were just better, or there were alternative browsers that were worthwhile on WP7, I might still be using the HD7. Right up until I ended up with a Sensation.

Mango does support dual-core. the lastest spec sheet for upcoming wp7 devices says so. so the driver headache is not there...

I saw HD2 running Android and w7. So maybe we can have w7 OS run on inspire too. I am not a dev so I can't port OS to inspire but it would be nice to see some devs might be interested in it. Again just a thought.

While I agree I'm guilty of flashing a new Rom just about everyday but at the core of all Roms its still gb or froyo. Wp7 is a new os altogether. Maybe I just dont understand the desire to have it on this phone unless you like the specs of this phone over regular wm 7 phones perhaps.

There's a reason why you see an "Android Development" section in almost all native Windows Mobile phone forums. Windows Mobile seems nice, but eventually you realize that you bought the wrong phone.
You don't see a "Windows Mobile Development" section in any native Android phone forum do you?

You Flash New Roms because each New Rom is almost like getting a brand new phone every single time.
I love to Flash New Roms. I've tried just about every single android sd & nand Rom that is out there... When I heard I could flash WP7 OS to my HD2 I just had to do it! The temptation for another New, Uncharted, Undiscovered Rom was simply unbearable. If someone ports WP7 for the Inspire people will Flash it. My Roommate will be the first.

No, but its a retarded question.
As far as the OP goes, I was also gonna say no but stranger things have happened. Although obviously I was thinking of the HD2, but then who the hell would want to run 6.5 - most Sensation owners are happy with Android.
Same question has been asked already...
That new windows is closed source no?
who ever want mango on there HTC devices. should be patient. there will come out HTC eternity with 4.7 screen dual core. just check out from gsmarena.com. that is my advise.

I was like, sure it's available on the Senny, what you talking?...
Lol.
question is, why are you using that launcher? you should ditch your sensation and buy a hd7 or some sort.
People here seem to be misinformed/trolling. First off, an HD7 is not really a comparable phone. Worse screen, processor, gpu, etc. Also, to the person that not even dual core could help windows, that had to be a troll remark. I am a diehard android user, but windows phone 7 still seems to have the same smoother user experience, and that's on inferior 2010 single core snapdragon processors.
The main thing preventing this from happening is the lack of drivers for the updated snapdragon platform on winpho7. I'm sure that when they make the move to qualcomm dual core chipsets that we use, there will be some porting attempts.

agreed. wp7 was pretty smooth on my hd2. BUT... lack of apps and open source android.
Now just waiting for s-off on my sensation and let the modding begin.
I'd like to ask that
will Windows phone probably running on HTC Sensation?
Since WP7 is so smooth and fast,
I'm really get interested in it though
This is a new, refreshing and interesting question that no one has ever asked.

Hi,
WP7 will not run on a Sensation.
Curious to the reason as to why? Is this "impossible"?

It is illegal

The illegality isn't question on this site - or does it? You can find lot of devices which has windows ROM different than the original version. These devices has licence only the original version of windows, so I think that is same illegal.
Well, the question is: has any physical limitation (drivers, hardware) of this development? Anybody start to work on this curious job?
Is it possible to port WP7 into this device?
I know WP7 requires a single core to support it. Maybe we can reduce one of the cores and make the ROM believe that it is a single core??
And please don't say, "get a WP7 instead".
I just want to know if its possible and the reason for the same!

Try themeing or this launcher to get your fix lol

I too would love to run Windows Phone 7, my cousin just got a lumia 800 and the OS is so slick! I prefer the Sensations hardware though. On a serious note, WP7 doesn't support our qHD resolution or dual core processors yet.
launcher 7 is great. It took me a while to customize it the way I wanted, but now its way sexier (with my custom tiles and koi live wallpaper) than plain ol wp7. Plus I get the freedom of android.

After looking at the radar.. it's a Windows phone, that's what you want? It's also 1ghz... 5mp camera (which also doesn't look that much better from reviews) but to each his own. Pick what you like best

i used samsung focus before, and here what i think about window phone
*pro:
- smooth, nice UI.
- good battery life
* cons:
- web browser is suck ( no flash option, no bookmark organize ..)
- no official youtube app.
- Almost like iOS ( need Zune desktop, no real file manager , no directly download file from browser..)
Overall, WP 7 is great for normal users, not a geek.

I think windows phone has potential. Get it *unlocked* and add a file browser and a proper video player I will be down!! SOOON!!! But only if ICS(BEST OS EVER) and FLASH didnt exist LOL
I would never give up a sensation for that. That's comparable to an exhibit 2! but the camera is way better on an exhibits 3mp! If you don't have ICS on your sensation I would def suggest it. It's amazing I put away my galaxy s2 for a while because it's so smooth. Went 13 hrs with power save mode on and still had 64% left. Then again everyone has different needs... What do you truly need?

I came here from WP7, its a lovely looking OS and the Titan I had was so quick, 105th quickest on WP bench. But the development is non existent! Unless you buy one of the 1st Gen ones, you cannot do anything. And if you want it dev unlocked the only way is to pay MS and with that you can only side load 3 apps!

No the unlock is a developer unlock. Pretty much just allows you to install non market apps. If you enjoy the freedom of android, youl have a shock going to windows. But if you just want a nice, good looking, fast phone then go for it. To be honest, i wish i kept my omnia 7 aswell as my sensation. I do kinda miss windows but android gives so much more.
i thought the sensation has f2.2 lens also
I would stick with the Sensation... you will regret it if u choose Radar as I think that it is step back..
