Android software for HTC touch

I have an HTC touch one of the originals. 128MB ram. This phone is from alltel before they were bought. Anyways I have a few questions. First is, is there an android software to replace the windows mobile software? If not, is there something I can or some sort of OS to replace the windows mobile? Third, is there anyway that I can download windows mobile software if the new software is not to my liking? I know I am asking alot, but i am new to "cracking" a phone if you will and I am trying to learn. I am trying to rid my life of windows as much as possible. Any help is much appreciated. I thank anyone that can and is willing to help.

Welcome aboard,
I don´t think it´s possible to install Android, but you can upgrade your WM version to the newest 6.5 or 6.5.1 and install many apps.

Also you can visit marketplace section and perhaps do a trade for an Android device.
Good luck,

[Q] Hey guys, help out please Huawei G7300

Hey strangers I recently bougth this new phone, Huawei G 7300, and I was just wondering if it's even possible to put SO Android in this phone.
I already searched but no luck in that.
Can someone help in this?
Does anyone tried this?
Do you guys think this is possible with an older version of android?
hope you or someone can help me
hugs

your answer
Hello um no its not possible your chipset would not even handle the android os i would honestly tell you to sell that and buy another phone as i mean some keypad flip phones have more features than that phone i dont mean to sound rude it was built to look pretty and very subprime internals 312mhz cpu you would need at least 600mhz cpu to run andorid platform and its just not set up to be a smartphone (in andorid)
sorry its not what you want to hear
ps if it helps please hit thanks

I don't mind to ear that. the phone is good for its purpose.
Thank you.

Can anyone help with the usb driver for this phone? i can find it anywhere and windows does not detect it.
Thanks

If you can know how to porting, and compiling from source code, you are able to port 1.5 version of android to your phone, but if you don't know or hard to you don't get started alone.

He should sell it and buy an android.

At the moment it is not possible and don't think it will be in the near future, Windows Phones have the bootloaders locked down and it is very difficult to unlock them to even accept custom WP Roms, Normally involves hours of developers time to try and create HSPL in order to accept any kind of modification, And this will normally only occur if there is enough interest in a particular handset and a bounty is set for the devs.
Android handsets nowadays have dual core and even quad cores and you would be better off purchasing one of those as in the post stated above.

i think your friend is mad!
1) why he choses a win phone if he needs android
2) it's impossible porting android on nokia 820 or other win phone because le OS are made for different hardware.
i can't believe in this question.....

As far as I read Sony Xperia V will be running Android on Intel Atom. But this will be launched in 2013.
And as far as I read you have to pay MS Money for getting WinOS 8 Devices in Developer Mode.
So why won't he sell it? And if its a company device he shouldn't break it

Actually this is very good question, I respect and admit that this can be done but of course if huge number of people request. It just like apple when now OS6 cannot be jailbreak, but it will be. I think that the initial request is to hope that somebody work on this, ho about if there is sponsor??? anybody:victory:

Agreed

I agreed with you. Why people not open mind to receive and try out of the box. It is benefit to you all if someone can do it, you can use dual OS for difference purpose. You can do what Android can also you can do what WP8 can. I think it is great only waiting for someone make it happen Cheer!

Still is a good idea
I would be happy if i could have a dual boot device ( WIN8 + Kitkat ) Thats why i think many users ask for this.
Keep hoping...

[Q] Help about rooting or jailbreak my Nokia Lumia 800 WP 7.8

I know it's old news about root tools and custom rom etc. But there are so many different opinions about it, and it has really confused me.
I've searched everywhere for answers, for not making something wrong, so i am looking for someone who can explain it in a simple and logical manner, how to roote or jailbreak my Nokia Lumia 800 WP 7.8.
1. In which order do you do this.
2. Can you thereafter take advantage of Google Play like for example. Android?
I hope that there is a kind soul who can help me.
Thanks.

First off it's important to clarify that Rooting (Almost always) refers to Android devices, and Jailbreaking (Almost always) refers to iOS devices. This being said you can't root or jailbreak your Nokia Lumia 800 because it run's the Windows Phone Operating System. You can however unlock the device's bootloader using the following procedure, but be aware the the procedure requires special equipment and could easily render your device inoperable if performed incorrectly. As the device is based on Windows Phone you can not take advantage of Google Play to run Android apps on your device even after unlocking the bootloader of your Nokia Lumia 800. Let me know if you still have questions I'll be happy to help you out.

Sorry bro but we are outta luck here..As all such projects have been shutdown..meanwhile there is no possible way of doing this.
You can try Project Astoria but your windows 10 mobile has to be on a certain build to make the project Astoria work.(just google the build no.)
Or we can just wait till the great brains over here at XDA find something.
