I want to switch from WP7 to Android

So do it, sell your phone and buy a new one, what´s the problem? You need XDA to announce this or what?

I think there are various topics about flashing Android to various devices, including HD2.

Guys, what I'm trying to say its that I want to install Android on my HTC HD2 that has already WP7 installed.
Is is possible?

You mean a dual boot, have them both?

You should be asking that in the HD2 forums. We're kinda all talking about Windows Phone 7 here in these Windows Phone 7 forums.... -_-'

WP7 is radically different to WM6.5. For most this is a good thing, however I actually wasn't a fan due to it having nowhere the the customisation of WM6.5. If you just need a smartphone that does everything and doesn't let you tinker with a whole lot but looks good, try WP7. If you like lots of options and playing around with everything, go with Android.
The HD7 is nice, but you have have your cake and eat it too if you get a HD2. The HD2 runs WM6.5 natively, but WP7 has been ported to it, as has Android. So you really don't have to choose if you don't want to. That said, the DHD is a nice handset.
Good luck, and welcome to XDA
Id buy a lg optimus 2x because of its specs compared to these phones

The HD7 is limited to WP7 only. To switch to Android, you'd need to buy a HD2. It's an older design, but based on exactly the same hardware as the HD7. The HD2 can run WM6.5, WP7, Android, Ubuntu and even MeeGo. In terms of flexibility, the HD2 is unbeatable thanks to a lot of dev support. There are versions available that will work on any 3G network worldwide.
so last question plz
if i will get the desireHD do u think that it is better then HD7???

On the DHD, you will have access to the entire Android market. So yes, there are lots of free apps and games.
You will not be able to install WP7 on the DHD. If WP7 is necessary for you, go for a HTC HD2.

Installing Windows Phone 7 on Android Phones?

No..
This is the first time I will say this but, if you really like Windows Phone 7, sell your Android device and get a Widows Phone 7 device. Best choice you can make
Yes. If not.... can someone enlighten me?
It will just take a lot of work and won't be near feasible to even support. Cellphone adoption rate says its better to just go buy the phone.

It's technically possible if the phone is using a Snapdragon processor, but so far no one has figure out how to hack the Windows Phone bootloader onto those devices.
So no or at least not currently.
No, because wp7 and android uses another hardware.

You meant to attach any link?
i belive it's called launcher 7, it's ok but not great. So far the only device that has had the WP7 OS ported to it has been the HD2 because 1.) it had a partial internal build from HTC, and 2.) the HD2 has probably the largest community support of any device aside from the iPhone.
Thanks for your quick response.
I do think the OP asked about OS not theme
So from what I understand my Galaxy ain't gonna eat WP7 and that's something that's neva gonna happen.

Thank God, who wants Android on a Windows Phone Device anyway. I guess if you want it to run sluggish and drain your battery in less than two hours then why not.
Well, today I received the newsletter from a prestigious portuguese store (fnac.pt for the portuguese guys in here) and they have a new product, one I bet you've never heard of:
I wonder if it can be upgraded to ICS

[Q] Can I Install Amdroid into my Nokia Lumia 710 - Windows 7.5 Mango

Hi,
I am completely frustrated from my Window 7.5 Mango.
I was using Android, having lots of apps in market/rooting etc. As compare to Android, Mango is nothing
Could anybody guide me to install Android into my Nokia Lumia 710
...no you can't...If you don't like it, sell it....
So can i install Windows 6.5 into Mango?
Thanks for ur reply,,,
I was having many apps & cracks for window 6.5. So is it possible to install Win 6.5 into my mobile -Lumia 710 ?
My main motive is to install apps/game into my mobile, but in windows market place I am not finding good apps for free (not even paid)

You'll find much better apps for WP compared to Windows Mobile. It's sad you decided to buy a phone without doing any research whatsoever.

Actually... get in touch with the other guy who wants to put WP 7 on his Inspire 4G and switch devices.
Actually just wait a while, I think I heard some where that DFT is working on a ROM for 2nd gen devices. Then you will be fully unlocked and able to customize and even have Bluetooth file transfer and so on.

2nd gen HTC's not Nokia sadly. The only real solution is if you want a phone that has Android on it buy an Android phone. If you want a phone that has iOS on it buy an iPhone. If you want something thay you can hack the hell out of buy an HD2. Or you can be like me and do all of the above
i am also looking for similar solution...unfortunately right now there is no android solution....the most recent progress is interior unlocked the phone, similar to the rooting concept. Microsft and Nokia are extremely picky about allowing changes.

Three questions:
1. If you wanted Android, why the heck did you buy a Windows phone?
2. If you already know that people haven't yet ported Android to the Lumia 710, why did you ask? That thread talks about the progress toward doing this, and says it doesn't work yet.
3. Why are you posting a device-specific question in the general WP7 Q&A forum? I mean, you linked to the exact Q&A thread relevant to your question. You could also check the Lumia 800 (typically also includes 710 since they are almost identical internally) Development sub-forum, and read the unlock/NAND-access thread there...

frustrating for him is i think the approach, he purchased a wp7 but want android on it. that's funny, you dont buy a golf cab to race against an sports car. you buy a sports car not a comparison with that car to wp7
the second thing. he want maybe to try android, because of the hacking abilities and customization and bla bla... and in the end everyone, and believe me everyone switches to the stock things that you have on your phone since the first day. that's the same with nokia and symbian, eveyone of us wanted a cool background picture, "cool" sounds, gimicks, but in the end nokia had a very good interface and backgrounds and sounds. he purchased now a nokia lumia 710 for which people sit many weeks to think of the variety of sounds and lockscreen so that it suites all of us. and after 100 background i use now the stock ones... the same is with custom accent color, i used 150 different to come to the stock ones, which suites definitely the best! thats why microsoft said 9 10 accent are enough because we get in the end wp8

eemmmm..if i'm not mistaken the market for winmo has already dead isn't?lumia is more better than old Pocket PC,i think there will be a lot of chance to do "something" with it,imagine man..some of old PPC device has already running android on it(especially the great HD2),so don't give up to your device

Calm down, he was just trying to help.
For the record, WP isn't better than wm, two different devices for two different jobs, MS may have dumped one of them but I can state without doubt that WM is alive and kicking in the business world and will be for some time to come yet I bet the other thing to remember is that wm development kickstarted android, when droid took off all the devs split their focus, I wouldn't bank on their ever being a new " hd2 " ever again

As Windows Mobile is not 'open source' (available for free and allowed to be modified) it would be illegal to put a copy on our sensations, xda allows putting newer copies of Windows Mobile on phones with Windows Mobile as standard OS as the license has technically already been paid.
Also recoding all hardware drivers to work on windows mobile would be a pain in the ass.
Download and flash a MIUI rom then get a WM7.5 theme and flash, its the closest you will legally get
You can try launcher 7 too

No, and never'll be - but there is a launcher which looks like Metro UI

This.
Get a HD2 if you want Android and WP7.
you can try some launcher, like 7 or Metro UI.
if you don't like these, you can try a MIUI rom in android developers section.
Hi All,
Thanks for the replies. Was just curious. Didn't know all these details on Windows OS. Just wanted to give a try to 7.5.
My question has been answered.
Regards,
Zer0
WM 7.5 doesn't support dual-core so even if it was not a problem of license it could never work on a sensation.
