Hi this may have been asked before but i have searched and searched and can't find an answer.
I have a Samsung galaxy 3, i have launcher 7 on it but was wanting to know if a WP7 rom is available? its a good spec phone so i am hoping it is possible to get a wp7 rom onto it.
any help or advice would be great.
P.s my phone has android 2.2 just incase someone needs to know.
Cheers

No, not to mention WP7 isn't open sourced, so, while following the rules here exactly, this shouldn't even be allowed to be distributed. Kind of how all the pirating with Windows Phone on HD2 is ignored, but hey, the rules bend when it's convenient...
But to answer your original question, as far as I know, not possible.
thanks mate. aye thought it might be bordering on the rules being broken lol just really starting to hate android but i love the phone and wp. but thanks again mate!
Lol, you never know though, the guys here are magical, honestly, if it exists, it would be in that phone's section.

Hello all,
I've been reading these forums for a while, as I have a Tilt, but this is my first time posting, so I don't know if this is in the right place. Please move it to the appropriate location if it isn't.
My girlfriend just got a Quickfire, and I was wondering if there is anyway to mod it. I know it's not a PDA phone like the HTC phones, but I assume there is some way to flash the rom or something. I know it's early on, so there's nothing really on this topic. But if someone could tell me if it's even possible, that'd be great. And if there is a way, but this site isn't the place to look for that info, please tell me another site I could look at.
I apologize again if this is in the wrong place, or if my questions are goofy/unclear. Thanks in advance.
what os does the quickfire run anyway?
Its more of a feature phone than a smartphone, so I think that you are pretty much out of luck. I also saw somewhere that they were recalled b/c of a big bug. I'm sure Google can find it. The article I saw was that at&t stores were taking them back and giving you a free samsung propel in exchange. Kinda cool of them to do that for you...

Here we go again!
I´ll say it nicely so noobs do not complain of rudness from senior members:
This is an HTC devices forum only
so there won´t be a section for any other devices!
This is the point of view from the Admins wich I support.
Respectfully,
so much hate.
it would do no harm to have a small subforum at the bottom for non HTC devices.
Not at all
All has it´s reason to be:

After you read that perhaps you´ll understand...
And as I promise to -PiLoT-:
Go to winmodevelopers.freeforums.org for non HTC devices
well said orb! hey, I kinda like the name of this samsung device
Hey!
Welcome back my friend!
A-S Team missed you a lot!
LOL! nice name indeed
Cheers,
theres already one non-htc phone on here, the sony ericson at the bottom
If you mean Xperia is made by HTC

Hi
until now I didn't know that this is a HTC-only forum, and because of the Xperia and the other two android phones (yes they are HTC...) I thought the galaxy would fit.
Thank you for telling me respectfully that I'm a noob, you uber pro senior member...

Please dont judge all us old timers the same, i promise we're not all like that!
Whilst it is indeed a HTC specific forum for whatever reason, you will find that you will be able to get any device support as we all run the same apps and the same operating system. So, please do stay and ask O/S or general application specific questions I run an Acer M900 and an Omnia and i'm still here!
As for where you will get your roms etc, i'm afraid you will have to use google again.
can we please have the opinion of the admins too?
I think this terminal is very well build and very nice to look at. Developers in here in the end are working with the software part, developing the platform, which makes less important the hw part.
I too would like to see a i7500 subforum.. maybe open a poll to see the opinion of all developers?

If money is the problem, maybe interested people could sponsor non-HTC sections? I'd certainly donate. It would be great to hear from an admin how much we're talking about (roughly).
As I said before I think the developers are working IN THIS CASE with a PLATFORM not with the hardware.. where the transition from one terminal to another I think would be quite easy
I would be interested to donate for the development of more phones as well.. moderator's view about this would be appreciated. thx

I would also be interested to Donate for the development of more phones. I recently have a Samsung Galaxy. Before I had 2 WinMo Devices and pherhaps the Next will be a Maemo or a WinMo again .... Thats why it would be a great Idea to Donate to get in Sub Forums like Samsung I7500, Asus etc.
You could try Android Forums
Can it, or has it, been done already? Is anybody working on this?

You joined this site to ask that one question? There was seriously nothing better on your mind than to come in here and ask this single question. Did you bother to do a Google search or even a forum search to see if maybe, just maybe this question has been answered several times before?
No, you didn't. You came in here hoping someone would do all the work for you. You aren't starting off your time here very well. Next time, do everyone a favor and either read the forum rules first, or don't bother posting anything.

Can someone who isn't a bitter 30-year old virgin answer me this, since I can't find a proper answer anywhere else. This is the Q&A section, right?
Depends on the device. Porting OS's is difficult to say the least.
If you look at the HTC HD2 forums, you will see that the devs there have managed it.
All in all, don't get your hopes up for an easy way to get WP7 on your Android, in most cases, it is actually impossible.

Im so frustrated, I just binned my Iphone wanting to go back to HTC (HD2), bought a stock windows unlocked phone but as Im a guy who gets nerved by doing things I dont understand Im now struggling to convert it to andriod, are there people around in the UK who could sort flash the software for me if I were to post it to them, or meet up for it to be done??...Ive my fingers crossed
why do you want that? Windows is also nice?
And make sure not to get scammed...

So rather than posting in the HD2 Android specific forums, you post in the general forums? Anyway, this guide makes it as simple as is physically possible. Honestly, with an HD2 you don't have to worry about bricking it at all, you should really be fine as long as you read properly.
@manmad, he means Windows Mobile 6.5 rather than WP7. The former is a crappy OS with tonnes of lag and no apps. The latter is a brilliant OS which is sleek and fluid, but sadly still lacks apps.

my name is dale,
sorry if this is the wrong part of the forum, ive been looking for a newby forum and wanted to introduce myself however its friday and im starting to get tipsy! this site has helped me upgrade my battery pack, and internal memory on my htc hd7, and even replace my screen! i just wanted to say thank you and contribute where possible. ive been looking at wp8 and think its awesome! considering my 3 year old wp7 keeps up with quite a few modern phones with its mods i cant wait to see what the wp8 does. i just wanted to say THANK YOU XDA! no one will even try to argue with me about phones anymore... they only know how to buy them.
i read on a random thread while looking for the newby forum that i can take 10 questions that will show m not a spammer, would anyone mind helping me out with that? this site is HUGE! and also does anyone know of a screachingly fast single core processor/motherboard that will fit my phone? its about due for an upgrade too! or if someone has found a twin core+ that will work with windows 7 devices i'm open for ideas! no unlocking though, im not willing to deal with all of the glitches that come with that.
thanks,
dale
