It's not going to happen unless you port it, and it's basically the same question as "I want ios on my phone so bad, how can I get this?
If you want ios buy an iPhone.
If you want windows buy a windows phone.
There's a reason we all don't have either one of those.

I think can port it but not entirely sure I have never done a port before but I really want to attempt it. I will need help and support and questions answered. I am a windows phone rom developer. I know I'm not the only one who wants to see this.
That's why I start this thread and ask what is the first step?
I know that we need a dump and drivers to work with. and something to cook with.

Well I suppose a windows compatible boot loader would be first then porting the drivers from android to windows this phone has full source released so your not going to get any thing new for it.
The thing would be is getting windows to recognize this as valid hardware.
Also I don't want windows 8 on my phone I have used it on my laptop it sucked making me think about going to Linux since Microsoft has decided touch interfaces are the future and made windows go full retard.

If you honestly want real development help try posting this In the developer section, rephrase the question a little better though so you get some real responses.

wait what? windows 8 and windows phone 8 are totally different OS's ?
why is our current boot loaders not compatible?
what is needed to make them?
im guessing your talking about clockwork recovery and twrp?

I was talking about the whole thing. The bootloader and partitions are not compatible you are going from android to the mobile version of windows 8.
You said earlier about winmo and win 8 being totally different android and winmo is also totally different.

get a launcher or theme.
thats probably as close as youre going to get if youre actually serious.

I see Calvin and the windows logo here

[Q] Dual boot your xoom

Can I dual boot my zoom? How about Android 2.2 or Linux and Android 3.0?

FTFY
But at the moment we do not have the necessary things in place to dual boot.
I want to bump this thread.
I would like to know if anyone is working on a dualboot spcifically for windows 7.
Rumors as they are are pointing that Windows 8 will be tablet friendly or atleast touch screen friendly. I would like to see something like this come out for the Xoom if for nothing more than proof of concept for now.
You want Win7 on ARM? huh?

Windows 7 doesn't support ARM........windows 8 will.........so you could probably see a windows 8 xoom.....but windows 7 on any honeycomb device.......I don't think so....

[Q]Help getting started with ROM developement

Hi, I am interested in starting some custom ROM work for our device. I am just looking for a little bit of direction on where to start. I understand things are a bit more complicated with our locked bootloader, but I know there is still a lot to be done. What are some good places to start tweaking performance? How about graphics and theming? if there is anything else I should know that would be great. I am not an extremely experienced programmer, but I have some experience and I am fairly comfortable tweaking system stuff. Lastly, Is there any way to get an emulater going for the A2? this would be very helpful for development to save the pain of boot loops and errors on our real device. thanks for everyone's help! Hopefully our development will take off for this phone once we get the bootloader bypass working or get it fully unlocked.

Arch is pretty awesome if you have the patience/time to set it up. It's not that hard, just takes some work to figure it out

You'll also need a ROM kitchen to decompile ROM's, or you could just extract the zip and rezip... only problem is that if you make any major changes you need to write a new updater-script...

FROST (Forensic Recovery Of Scrambled Telephones)

Hey guys,
After having nearly lost all my data because android would not recognize my Decryption password I would like to try to compile frost.
I don't know if it will work for the HTC one but I really want to give it a try to help out other people who might have to factory reset due to encrytion problems.
It looks fairly simple to compile it, only I have never compiled any kernel .img before.
Before I actually try to compile it I would like to get advice on how best to do it and what to avoid while compilling.
Again I really want to get this compiled for the HTC one as this had me in a really bad spot.
https://www1.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/frost
I know there are some questions in here but I really do want to get it compiled for you guys in this thread to have a way of possibly recovering encrypted data.
Anyone else up for the challange?
What?

Yeah I seen it will only work on 4.1.2 but lucky enough HTC hasn't update all devices to 4.2.2 yet .
I have a Ubuntu virtual machine setup for doing the compiling. Just installing required items now.
Should have everything setup tomorrow to start compilling

Just wanted to say thank you for XDA for allowing us to start work in FROST.
I'm currently discussing FROST with a few other XDA'ers who are also interested in helping me out and getting this developed.
Once I know more (hopefully this evening) I will post an update.
Again thanks XDA for allowing this to be done
So u got the thread up, Awesome. Shoot me a pm when ya ready...
Welcome to your new home FROST
I'd like to help as well
I've got Eclipse/ADT set up ready to use for a couple of App ideas I've got. If it's just compiling Android code, I''m happy to help.
I've just finished a degree in Computer Security & Forensics (2:1) with a dissertation on Android security & security awareness. Prior to that I'v been a Systems Analyst and developer for a number of years (Mainframe/Unix/Microsoft). so although I'm fairly new to Android, I know my way roind an IDE or terminal editor and I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty woth code.
Nice to hear man, and looking forward to getting started.
Ive had a few issues with my pc and have got most of it sorted now. So of all goes well i will be able to start work after many delays
And I could definitely use you help if you can man

lol, just have seen this.
The link to the University of Erlangen has some pretty neat resources, but I currently have no android phone to try making such a recovery image for.
For the case of (hopefully) your own phone you are trying to get the /data back: This software relies on the device having been unlocked not long ago. If the device was not unlocked for a week or so, you have no real chance of the keys being still in ram.
If you have a weak PIN, its bruteforce feature might work, if you have a strong one it may take very long. I'd recommend you to make a bit level image of the /data partition just in case (type man dd in your commandline in linux, the dd tool should also be in phone recoveries). And possibly try to encrypt it on your desktop that propably gets it done faster. Also you do not need to make a device specific recovery and you dont need to cross compile.
Also this: http://www1.cs.fau.de/filepool/projects/frost/frost.crackpin.tgz
might just work. Read through the README file in the archive, its straightforward.
thx good thing to konw
There's a reason they freeze the phone. If you hope to recover the keys from a phone that is powered off for anything like 5 mins or more forget it :/ . (The time really depends on the memory chips)

Will FROST be able to recover deleted files from the phones internal storage? I'll send strength your way so that you'll get your life to awesomeness again.
FROST only works if your bootloader is unlocked. Since unlocking your bootloader wipes data you're screwed (unless there's some hack to prevent this for your device bootloader). Image the phone or copy the encryption header and try to brute force/dictionary attack your own password key as much as you want without worrying about data being wiped. Download Kali Linux live CD maybe it has some Android forensics tools I think it does. If not google around for 'android brute force encryption' somebody will have tools to do this.

[Q]Are there any possible to mocify a WP8 toV-SIII?

As there are almost the same hardware between V-9300 & ATIV S ,I winder if there is a possibility to flash ATIVS's rom to V9300 or modify one for transform V9300 to ATIVS?
Try it and post results back here i kid i kid

well first off you say almost the same I have buit wp7 roms so I know that all you really need is correct working drivers and system files.
so I ask what are really the key diffrences?
if all the drivers for that device can work or can be modified to work then I don't see why not.

HTC One M8 on Windows 8.1

Verizon is offering the HTC One M8 running Windows Phone 8.1. Interesting, huh?

People laugh when they say, you have the M8 instead of the G3? I could honestly care less...but hopefully someone can dump the WP and pull it to our android side somehow!! Thatd be awesome. Oh...you have a G3? Well I run Android and Windows...

I'm guessing since the new WP is the exact same device as the android version it sounds possible. If it happens I'll definitely give it a try.
It would be interested if I could I could load up windows on my HTC one. Too bad it is only on Verizon's overpriced network.
Very interesting, I'd love to try out Windows on a phone but I can't really afford to just go and buy a phone to try it soo this would definitely be a + for me. Hopefully someone will make a way to dual boot or maybe port MultiROM to the M8 if Windows will work on our Android versions of the M8.
This is the only way I would actually try a Windows Phone, so if it can be ported, I would likely try it. Though I doubt I would stick with it too long...but who knows.
Anyone remember safestrap or boot menu manager?

This reminds me of the HD2, you could run all kinds of OS on them. It would be great if we could dual boot WP8.1 and also Android.

Yes, I was hoping someone could create something similar to that for the M8 or maybe even port one of them to the M8. I'd LOVE to be able to dual boot AOSP and Sense ROM's or even Windows & Android in the future maybe.
Hopefully this works
I'd be interested - I've been wanting to play around with Cortana.
That didn't come out right...
I smell a bounty thread for dual booting coming.....
And I would be on board!!

A safestrap compatible ROM would be perfect since it wouldn't touch the bootloader
I agree with you!

Only thing I wonder about is the how different the partition structure might be. That might prevent a safestrap type solution.

Yeah...I remember reading something that the GPE ROMS alter the partition size so its not smooth coming back to a sense ROM etc after it...
But I'm all in for going dual boot if it happens. I'd actually would use Windows phone at work as it would integrate better and be more useful...then as soon as I leave for the day boot back into android.

True but even if twrp were to integrate slots like safestrap, it would be nice. Then all we'd need would be a port and I'm sure the port will be here with in the next few weeks.
Even if there wasn't a dual boot option, but just a way to flash W8 for a day, then restore back to Sense, I would be thrilled. I always wanted to play around on a Windows phone
