Hey guys,
Just wondering been looking on internet everywhere and can't find it. Can you put Windows 7 ROM from new Windows mobiles onto HTC desire HD?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I don't think it is. WP7 phones have a hardware checker or something like that, so it probably wouldn't even boot up without a lot of hacking. I could be wrong though!
AFAIK Windows 7 is only available for X86 and AMD64, so no Android phone would be able to run it even if it met the other requirements.

There are versions for mobile devices, for example I've got a gps device with windows onboard..its not windows 7 mobile but there is mobile version of win for these devices.
its not exactly as windows but has some simularities, windows 8 would be exactly the same(..so they say )
Hello, everyone
Does anyone know or have some suggestions how to install Android on N97?
Yes, I was wondering that too. I myself have a jailbroken iPhone, but my friend has a Nokia N97 and he's sick of it. I was hoping I'd be able to put Android on it somehow.
haha.. it's unreal ... Nokia with symban are too old !!!!
But hardware of n97 supports teh Android ?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA Premium App
Well actually the Nokia N97 has an ARM 11 cpu @ 434MHz, which is not that bad at all. It also has 128MBytes of RAM, and that's a hardware configuration I've seen on tablets running android perfectly. Combine that with the qwerty keyboard and bam - you got yourself a nice phone... running symbian though.. pitty. I think that it would be way cool if I could put android on it - my company gave one of those to me just yesterday and I am already sick of the software on it...
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

It is possible to install custom rom
Just visit the site (windowsphonehub.in/tutorials/updating-unlocking-nokia-lumia-710-wp-7-8-jailbreak) every thing is provided there abt installation of custom rom
I "re-animated" my HTC 7 Pro by replacing the digitizer and upgrading the internal memory.
It worked and the phone is just great with its keyboard.
After my HTC 7 Pro broke some months ago, I bought a Lumia 800. Great phone but I miss the keyboard, that's why I tried now to repair the old HTC 7 Pro.
What I really like with my Lumia is the NOKIA drive - just perfect, but the phone has only a poor battery life when doing the traffic navigation.
The HTC 7 Pro has a better battery, that's why I would like to use if for traffic navigation.
Is there any way to install NOKIA drive on a HTC 7 Pro?
It is a standard (Swiss) HTC 7 Pro, unlocked (all sim cards work) and it has all HTC updates.
Do I need to root the phone? How does this work?
I would like to keep the operating system like it is (it works great) - thus, is there any chance to convince the phone to install the NOKIA drive app?
I am a nweby with all this flashing/rooting/... stuff. Any information, background knowledge, guide (for the HTC 7 Pro) would be really great!
Thank you in advance!
Best,
Peter
Using dev-unlock, you could install the Nokia Marketplace XAP (see my signature) but the Nokia Drive app, although you could install it, would refuse to run on your non-Nokia phone. With full-unlock (i.e. custom ROM) you could either trick it into running (I don't know if this is safe, but it's possible) or install a modified version of the app (which is technically illegal in much of the world but pretty common), though.

i dont get it, it must be because i m a newb. i read news saying nokia drive is now opened to other windows phone 7. i just downloaded the nokia drive 3.0.0.0.xap (although no idea yet what to do with it .
i also read that availability on windows phone will depend on phone maker decision.
could you please be more specific about "tricking it into running", or how to get and obtain a modified version of the app?
i m very surprised that i did not find more threads about installing this very good app on our pro 7

Currently no but i think in the future there will be someone who will do that for the phone. It is a pain in the neck to do those thing
is it even possible? LOL
I believe so. Requires lot of work and skill. Remembered back an 1st gen. IPhone Running Android, so little is impossible.

but if its worth? i dont know
Windows is closed source if there is a port there will be lots of bugs so it's impossible

I think you can put Android on this phone because the Huawei Ascend W1 has a similar specs as the Sony Xperia L.
Chipset Qualcomm MSM8230 Snapdragon
GPU Adreno 305
A-GPS
There will be some risk that not everything will be 100% compatible as there may be some differences in the other hardware components, such as the SDcard reader, wi-fi, USB, etc. So, it will be prudent to do some research before deciding whether or not you want to flash the Android ROM. There is a Sony Xperil L forum here on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l
You may want to find out more before you embark on this project.
Good luck in your venture.
