Hy dudes.
I lived in WM (Xperia X1) world for a while till an terrible accident happen...
http://www.mcgilljam.com/wordpress/2009/08/11/en-dod-xperia/
Now I'm looking at this Android handset or iPhone 3Gs.
My questions are:
What exactly is ROOTED?
Do we get some chefs to do some cooking of new ROMs like the WM world?
I'm a lill lost in this world. I know how the WM world works and iPhone jailbreak/unlock world, but this Android world is confusing me...
*hugs*
Some Solved
Ok... solved some questions myself.
Wasn't reading sticky post properly to follow all links and continue reading in them.

Hi,
I'm the proud owner of a T-Mobile MDA II with vga camera. Half an hour ago I happend to find this interesting forum.
What is this Windows Mobile 2005? I've never heard of it. I searched the Microsoft website, but I didn't find anything.
I have no idea which OS is installed on my MDA... the ROM version is 1.72.01GER (in case that helps).
So... in case I want to upgrade my MDA.... what do I have to do, where do I get the files from etc. And, what is this upgrade all about? Is it a totally new OS, or what is it? I have no idea
Thanks for your help
Bye

Hi Bauer,
I too am a newbee. Just joined this forum about a month ago. If I may give you a clue ( though I'm not an expert in it), the Windows Mobile 2005 is supposed to be the next mobile phone OS from Microsoft. It is said to have many more user-friendly features than the one you are currently using. However it has not yet been officialy released in the market (I even doubt if its ready yet). But thanks to our great Buzz Lightyear (http://buzzdev.net) we are fortunate to get the taste of the new promised features. Buzz had managed to create his own version of the said OS and named it the Magneto. Why don't you try to drill further into other area of this forum or go to http://buzzdev.net. I'm sure you'll get the idea, and as it happened to me I'm sure you'll like it too. Good Luck.
Hi again Bauer,
Regarding the question as to where to get ROM upgrade, you can try this link http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_download&gid=124&Itemid=32 to get the copy of the new ROM upgrade. However you are supposed to register yourself first to be able to access the link. There (and in this forum too) you will get a clear description & instruction for the ROM upgrade.
I would also like to get this opportunity to apologize to the forum (especially to Buzz and the development team) for not being polite enough to say 'thank you' for all the work you've done. I've had no significant problem with either the upgrading process or the tweaking around with both hardware and software (incl. 3rd parties). Everything works fine with my machine since day one I did the upgrade. I love the work. Thank you all, and have a nice day.
Hi Bauer,
Spend time reading the wiki site too which will provide you with a lot of background about your new toy and the sort of things you can tweak/ develop or pick up that others have done.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/
Also learn to use the search function of this website as you can find most of the answers for yourself without relying upon good folk to give the same advice to the next newbee in the queue asking the same questions ('nuff said, we've all been newbees at sometime).
Once you've read relevant parts of the wiki and are comfortable that you want to risk changing your ROM (there are numerous pitfalls you risk (e.g. warrantee invalidation) and ultimately totally killing your machine if you have two left feet/ power surge/ massive bad luck etc) search these forums will educate you to the experiences of others developing/ beta testing/ exploring. Buzz's versions of WM5 are narrated a:

Remember to pay due homage to all his hard work.
Beyond that enjoy.

OLED in upcoming models.
Tg01 will have a perfect driver combination after this release. Due to similar hardware concept. If ported.
Hope we might get a branded wm6.5.3 ROM in mere future.
lmao adding querty , and being even thinner
adding an 4.1 OLED screen despite the tg01 tg02 k01 all have the same 4.1 non OLED screen
.... dont believe everything , use common sense please ....
I believe it will be called K01 internationally. IS02 is an au KDDI name.

The K01 is 12.9mm thick

told ya ..
K01 is 7inches. this should probably be tg02. but any how the UI is bettr in the pic. this can be ported to tg01. That is my idea. we can get all negatives rectified by porting wht all we wanted like radio OS ui n many more. Definetly they would have rectified n improved all defects errors mainly battery drivers. its wm6.5.3 were grphics should be the size of our tgo1 4.1inches.
Day by day our tg is becoming stronger n stronger. lot of chefs to cook better roms,port anything maximum we need.
Due to the failure kinda image to tg01 made them chng name to iso2.
which companies product r these n which going to rule out.

see the attached pic from a famous magazine.
I just bought this phone in Japan. It is running WM 6.5.3 Pro, Japanese edition. This is my first smartphone and am reading threads on this site to educate myself. My first question, will the KG01 ROMs work on this phone?
Kindly post your today and start menu screenshot. thank you.

Windows Mobile Professional 6.5.3 Japanese
It's definitely WM 6.5.3. Back to my question though, does anyone know if the ROMs here will work?

was ur wm org or ported if orginal post ur today screen, i wanted to see the diff between cooked rom n org ones. just screen shots thats it.
Here's a few pics. Let me know if you need anything else.
I'll go ahead and apologize if I ask any dumb questions. I'm a Windows desktop and server guy but this is my first go with mobile devices.
A good article I found that goes into the differences:
ezinearticles.com/?Introducing-the-Toshiba-K01&id=3944751
its not a dumb question , i wish i could answer it , but i dont have a x02t (chin?) or t01a (jap) version of the toshiba , but i think it will be the same situation as those devices versus the tg01
u should read up on those in the rom section for info ...
also how much did u pay for it ?
60000 yen (about $600 US dollars)

you neednt apologize. your information is very important for us you have done great job by posting these images. your rom is worth, stay with it, dont try anything else unless u get one or a need, your rom contribution will be useful for chefs who cook romz for tg01.
UI of your phone is sleek n worth a try.

from the article, here goes
There's nothing remarkable about them that was not there when the TG01 was released in June last year. A capacitive touchscreen updated the TG01 and the AMOLED Capacitive display and QWERTY sliding keyboard as well a more capable 3D user interface are the only things differentiating the K01.
Its time for the chef to think about cooking k01 rom for tg01.

That's why I was thinking I could probably throw that ROM on this phone
Hi.
A have question. Nokser is leave building wp7, that's my sugestion.
So, maybe someone else has building this OS?
Really sory 4 my language.
Bye.
Summmer time Holiday - wait and You waiting be rewarded
Yeah, i now. This summer is crazy. xD
But U now, i want see WP7 on my Toshiba in this year.
WP7 themes is cool.
See ya
Just be patient People have lives outside of the forum.
I've asked Nokser if I can help out with the android project, perhaps I should also have asked about helping with the W7 as well (I have no mobile dev experience, but am a J2EE dev).
WP7 is not ready yet. Better situation is with Android...
I have seen another OS in Toshiba.
i hope to 1st OS is WP7. but android i like too.
See ya
A have idea.
Is possible run iPhone OS on the Toshiba?
It's sound crazy, but interesting.
Hey!
Why anybody cook Windows 7?
It's different system, but i hope it is good.
maybe, because it is not ready, you KNOW. did you use any of WM7 devices so far?
easy man, it will be ported as soon as it is possible.
can you imagine running windows 8 on your PC now?
many people working on android and still nothing, so sit back and relax, you know.
PS
pisz zrozumiale albo nie pisz w ogóle
So, we don't see WP7 on our TG01's?

But... what help me this J2EE dev??
Nokser, if U can tell us how look project WP7?
This is now the 3rd thread at my count discussing WP7 for TG01 including Noksers.
The tools to build a WP7 rom are just not available to us at the moment, i understand there is development in this area on the HD2 but that doesn't mean that it will ever come to the TG01. I hope it will, but i doubt it will be for a while yet. We can't even get android running and we have devs that know linux. WP7 is a completely new beast that we must tame and constantly asking " is it available, will you make it for me, i want it now" won't speed up the dev process.
I understand that discussing these things is helpful but these threads are fairly pointless. If you want info on porting WP7 then go to the WP7 section of the forums, badgering nokser or anybody else will not make it happen and opening a new thread just makes the relevant information difficult to find.
Rant over

yes. i agree with leeston- AND for discussing exist the TG01 General Forum
Learn to post in CORRECT SECTIONS.
Evening guys and gals...
now im thinking this question may have been asked a lot but i couldnt see a clear answer flicking through the forum.
Ive had my HD2 for a while now and pretty much since the day i got it, it just hasnt impressed me so i want to make it A) more user friendly and B) just look and run better.
My problem here is that unlike the Iphone i had before im not sure where to begin with it. So my question how do i go about modding the phone? Is there a guide on here ive been to blind to see, or perhaps someone can give me some pointers.
Im thinking that unlike the iphone where its just a case of jailbreak it and mod it from the phone the HD2 as it runs windows takes a lot more effort/work?
Thanks in advance for any help given.
Read.....The HTC Leo (HD2) Wiki pages - to learn about the HD2 in all its' glory
Read..... HD2 STICKIES | USEFUL INFO | POSTING RULES - to learn about how to.... what to.... where to.....
Read..... all threads starting [ROM]..... in the HD2 ROM Development thread - then you'll know what other people are doing with their HD2's.
That's a good starting point ...... should take you most of August to get through that little lot and then you should be in good shape to start updating and tweaking your HD2 to behave just how you want it to.....
Hope that helps!!
Mark.
Your my new hero! Cheers buddie
I would like to install android to my t-mobile US htc hd2. I would like to somebody to help me by remotely connecting to my computer and help me do this.
I hate windows 6.5 it is freezing and texting is freezing. I really like to use android all the time.
I would like to pay for this service not much but something.
Anybody interested please contact me thru the forum private message or in this top.
I'm sorry if I'm violation forum rules but i need help. I couldn't figure out after 4 hours reading. thank you.
My advice to you, sell your Windows Mobile device, and buy a naitive Android device. Then you will have Android as it was designed, there are still bugs with the Android port on the HD2.
I see thank you for your answer. I will try that.
from waht you have said i'm convinced you have a stock rom which, to be honest, is a pretty sucky choice. The HTC stock roms all have bugs but i seem to find that the custom roms have fewer (i know it sounds mad, may be it's just me) Before you sell your HD2 try customising it a little bit. There is plenty of help available if you wish to look at this. I would even freely admitt there are people out ther that i have helped over MSN and they are all now very happy HD2 users.
Pm me if your interested but please remember i am quite frequently busy and i live in the UK.
