The purpose of this thread is to discuss the possibilities of getting Android up and running on the HD Mini.
A word to the wise…porting Android is NOT easy, it took almost 1 year to get an (almost) fully working port for the HTC Touch Pro, and there were a LOT of really good Linux developers spending TONS of time on it. (The preceding sentence was paraphrased from this post by TheDeadCpu.)

Me to!! Can't live with what's in the HD Mini, but most certainy I can live with the hardware. Anybody knowing how to androidize it?
I bought HD mini due to the outlook, size and weight!
Legend have poor taste and the shape is not good to store in pocket.
Frankly, WM is more easy to copy and edit the Word/Excel files from PC and I can check some files out of office easily.
And I just seek for any solutions for multi-boot with Android OS as Android looks better and I just want to try it and need not to buy another phone.
Cos I have one iPhone already, too many mobile phones~
When the evo rom arrives, it will be ported to hd2. I find it logical that it will be a android powered hd mini in the future. Then, it would be rather easier than now to create a custom android rom for hd mini But I should stick to reality.
The dual boot app for winmo devices isn't written for hd minis hvga resolution.
But hey, the diamond 2 or touch pro 2 does not have a android twin to take a rom from. I will put up a request for hd mini support for the android dual boot app.
The hd mini would have been a great android device!
Sorry for bad English.
Thanks gingerviking! I agree that the hardware is made for Android rather than wm6.5. I cross my finger for a rapid solution - WM is just not for me anymore..
Good news is that a genious has managed to get the linux bootloader to work on hd2 and playing a 720p video. An Android port will soon come to hd2 even without the evo rom
Hopefully the kernel system on hd2 isn`t all that different from the hd mini
Well. We're all looking forward to see a genious hacker who cares about the hd mini and android. =)
Don't know if it will work but you guys could give it a try cause it runs via haret:

@XDA-Mods: after months of waiting! when will you update my account?
Anything else besides android that you guys might want??? how about some cookies along with it? lol if you wanted android why did you bought a windows mobile based device?? cause of haret? if you want android on your hd2 mini, yould need a working linux kernel, then you can worry about android, and its not that easy im not going over this again im tired of explaining to noobs that android is not a a program that you can simply install...it dosnt work that way.

Android would be just enough
ATT HTC ARIA -- a dead ringer for HD MINI but with ANDROID?
Does this mean an android rom won't be too far off?

core of haret is a file called setup.txt where are stored parameters with rom/ram addresses, only thing to do is know this addresses.........
I hate you. Htc!
I have great news for all you people living in the US: Like the evo 4g with sprint(android version of hd2). At&t have released the htc aria, a true android clone of the hd mini. Just google it for more info.
Yes and, unfortunately for us, HTC Aria will be, and nowadays is, available only for USA market...
I want it in Italy!!!!!! Or maybe... someone which could "do" a complete Android ROM for the HD Mini, based on the Aria!?!?!? I wish it! I really want it...!
Because HD Mini is so pocketlly beautiful!!!!
its a company fault
we have went to market to get it and it was WM and now they have released HD Mini with Anderiod ,
so it is who's fault,
i hope anyone can give info how to get the rom of android for our hd mini (old) one
hi!
i own a htc desire and i'm very happy with the enormous range of custom roms for it. now i'd like to get myself a honeycomb tablet and was wondering which model (xoom, flyer, galaxy, iconia, ...) might have the biggest developer community.
thanks,

I was just wondering if someone would be interested in making the ice cube lwp on asus eepad transformer available to our android phones, just learned it also works as a battery indicator. Thats pretty cool. I hope someone will do soon... ty
Finally here, ahihihi http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...-from-the-eee-pad-transformer-honeycomb-only/
I hope it works on phones soon too
Hello there,
I was wondering if is possible to port lots of HTC Flyer tablet functions on some of the latest ( or not ) smartphone.
I'm talking about the pen-do-everything-you-want-on-the-screen feature, that is quite amazing and is something that I would really like to have on my smartphone.
Is technically possible or not?
Cheers
Dear all, is the first time that i write in this forum, it is well done and it is my bible.
i have a motorola Xoom 3G bought in Uk (im italian) on it, i have android 3.1 with tiamt Rom ...wonderful.
but im looking some new launcher ui... and im surprised that there is not a porting of EDEN (NOTION INK ADAM) on our motrola xoom...there is somthig for View sonic but notthing for xoom.
So is there some one that is working on this porting?
for u is it possible a complete rom with EDEN UI + MARKET ECC ECC?
Im looking for a spb launcher project too...but i cant fine more news.
Thanks in advance for ur reply.
Andrea
I came from and Adam am surprised that you say that. My Adam gave me troubles left and right, and beast was all I used. I am more than satisfied with the xoom, live wallpapers, Widgets, SPEED. I think you should just get the right Widgets like the wizz Widgets.
