It's possible,in your opinion, install windows 8 on androidsPhone?
Techinically yes, but will take a lot of effort in process
After all the core hardware (a cpu, RAM, flash) remains the same for all : Android, Windows, iOS & PC !
with correct mods we can even install windows 7 or XP on a android phone !

Uh?.. I'm thinking no, the ARMv7 Processor was not designed to run intel based operating systems.
short answer: no
Operating systems require drivers. This is the same reason when you install linux on a computer you have to go searching for those pesky Broadcom drivers so your wireless works. There has been some progress in porting a whole operating system to a device not intended for it (Android on HD2 is the furthest progressed as far as I know), and there are some ROM's/launchers to bring the WP7 experience to Android.
if you're talking about Windows 7 i'd say no way! even with the announcement of Windows 8 running on ARM....
Ok thanks.
Ya if your looking for the layout or widget stylings check out "7 widgets Home Plus", plus one of my coworkers just bought a windows 7 phone and has had 3 viruses in 1 week. I am by no means an anti windows person...just not the best mobile enviroment as they have proved time and time again...
Windows can not run on ARM processors as the code is not made for it. That's why you see x86 and x64 editions of Windows, it only supports those processors.
However, Windows 8 promises ARM support as well as increased tablet usability, but its Microsoft, so who knows.
You don't really need Windows anyways.
Hello, is there any emulator wich will alaud me to use windows xp app (like games) on mobile phones, or chance windows xp or vista or 7 to bi installed on mobile phone like htc for example?

i dont think so, windows xp needs a big ammount of ram and above 2ghz cpu dual core to even run properly these days, it takes alot of HDD space too.
Its very hard to make windows xp run natively on a phone, but emulating it is out of the question.
Emulating an entire operating system will result in major slowdown, you have xbox360 with windowsxp and its running horrible, it has a 3.2ghz tricore cpu too so imagine the speed of emulating it on a 1.0ghz dual core cpu and thats the top of the line phone these days.
So, windows will be very slow and when i mean slow i mean things like taking an entire minute to send a file to recycle bin and games would be out of the question as they are in majority D3D dependant and android cellphones use OpenGL.
As the above post says, no. It is possible to emulate a Winmo device from 2003 through 6.5.3 on your PC, but not the other way round. A phone, even the powerful ones do not have enough grunt, to do the job. WinMo emulators on the PC can now run native ARM code executables directly. No mean feat, even on a 3GHz PC
If the PC program was written in native x86 code, a phone cannot run it, but if it was written in .NET and used the core basic methods and properties of the same or a previous version of the .NET CF framework, there is a very slim outside chance that it may work, but the requisites are very restrictive.
Watch for the upcoming version of Windows 8. Microsoft is determined to get onto the latest ARM powered pad devices, having already lost important ground to the iPad and 'pad' versions of Android. This should see a much closer integration of the platforms, but next year may already be too late.

It is possibly to install Windows 7 and dual boot in tablet with Honeycomb 3.1???
I saw that the tablet its selled with windows 7 and honeycomb, i want to use both, d u know a way to do that?
Thanks a lot and sorry about my english
Windows 7 = x86
Transformer= ARM
Cant do it. The one that dual booted used an x86 processor, I think.
When Windows 8 comes out, might be able to do that.
Thanks for the quick reply ^^
Another option, since dual booting won't work, is if you have a Win7 system already, you can just remote desktop into it. There are a few threads on here that have discussed the best RDP client to use.
You can get the Iconia W500 tablet... which runs on Windows 7 with x86 platform... then you can try dualbooting Android x86 on it... I know Android x86 run pretty decent on the Asus T91 tablet.
However, you can install Ubuntu on it (the ARM version of Ubuntu that is). But still its not straight forward dual booting, where you can restart to the other OS. Read more here : DEV Thread, HOWTO Thread.
The other alternative is to use a remote desktop client, Splashtop HD is a good client if you want very a fast frame rate (for watching videos n stuff).
hi guys, sorry for the newb question, but i am wondering if it possible to get any windows os on a nexus 7 or is there any cheap tablet out there that will install windows? i put xp tablet edition on a o2 joggler for a friend of mine who uses it in his garage, but he wants to now run some of his diagnostic gear on a tablet if there is one that can run windows? sorry again in advance. .
kindest regards

No most tablets use an ARM processor which is incompatible with Windows which requires an Intel type x86 or x64 processor. While there is a version of Windows 8 for ARM devices its very closed source so it cannot be ported to other devices. Plus the ARM version of Windows 8 won't run any existing Windows programs.
You'll probably need a tablet with an Intel x86 processor, something with an Intel Atom should suffice unless you need a lot of power.
Yes
Pick up tablet
Break open through middle
insert window
Insert another window
Voila. Windows in tablet
I was wondering if it is possible to install a version of windows 10 on an android device, i read that it is not compatible with arm devices, only with intel ones, and i got a tablet with an intel based processor, so i want to install windows 10 on it
You can install it like normal through a USB but touch wont work and other stuff will be broken. In reality its rather pointless unless the device is windows 10 and Android bootable out of the factory (It came that way with windows 10 and android). Feel free to google "Windows 10 install guide on android device/tablet" and plenty of options will come up. Enjoy
