Guys, pardon my ignorance, I am a total newbie here as you can see. I am an iPhone user and can work around with iPhone pretty ok and I am new to Windows Mobile devices.
I am very enticed to upgrade my Windows Mobile Device to the later version which i Believer is Windows 6.5.
I downloaded the "cooked" roms as they say it. I dont know if its similar with the booloaders and stuff in iPhone but anyway.. I must say I am totally nood with the terms used in Windows Mobile Development community. Pardon me.
I just cant find the simplest tutorial on how to upgrade my device. I was hoping someone would be sooo KIND to lend me a hand. I am dying to see Windows Mobile 6.5 run on my device but I am not sure how to do it.
I am currently running Windows 6 Professional.
I hope someone can help me with this. you may send me an email at rap.espiritu(at)gmail(dot)com.
Please..
Thanks a lot guys

Hello
Is it possible to run Android on Touch2?
Nope, it needs the HardSPL first and then a custom android rom cooked just for the touch 2.
If I sound like i know what I'm talking about, I dont, but thats what I've been told so far.

I dont think that you are right! You dont need HardSPL for Android not even to change ROM! You can run Android under windows for many devices just not Mega yet! Check this.

Yup. There is possibility to start the android from Windows Mobile with help of special executable (haret.exe). But it seems this way does not work for Mega yet.
hah, fair point, i did point out that i didnt know what i was talking about

so, how did u start Android on Touch 2. We need details! ))
Or maybe just a hoax.
yeah it's definitely a hoax.
I really want android on the mega
I really don't understand you guys...
Why did you bought HTC Touch2, which is with WinMobile OS, when on other side you could buy HTC Tattoo with Android, and with more hardware, and also little cheaper...
And now, you want to put Android to Touch2...
Why didn't you buy android phone...?
I just don't see point...
How about getting WM on the Tattoo?
These two devices seem as similar as it gets.

i could buy the Tatto when i chosed my phone , but i didnt know WTF was Android ... just heard only that it's a new google OS and that's all ... and when heard that if u start posting all the apps for WM u cant stop for years , my choise was done ;]] now Android devices question if they can run WM on their devices and we quest if we can run Android on our devices isn't it cool
WinMo<--->Android fight which is better , but they want to run each other and give it a try ?!

The touch 2 is half the price the Magic and the Hero are.
@secosan
Touch2 is about 10 euros more expensive than Tattoo...

It is nice to have dual boot (WinMO and Android). I have it on my Diamond.
Only thing is that Android will never get 100% ported to Diamond (or other WinMO device). There is always something missing,... and battery life when using WiFI is very short (approx 2 hours). This and other small bugs (plus frequent Android crashing on Diamond) is turning me from android on Diamond...
There is android topic in Diamond forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402002 with more than 6000 replies, and more than 1,600,000 views, but solution for 100% port of Android to Diamond is not yet found.
Honestly, I think it will never will be made... More likely, everyone who desperately want Android on Diamond, will buy Android device, like me... (still need money for that)
Well, I just wanna say to you all: Don't give up with android on Touch2, but most likely it will never work as it work on native Android device.
If you are desperately in need on Android device, then buy one...
And have in mind, that you will get more hardware with Android phone, and it will be cheaper than WinMO device in same rang.
Hope I helped a little...
Hi all, just bought a streak 5 and just joined the forum, my stupid question is about rooting. I previously had and have a n900 and just want to run maemo/ meego or ubuntu on this streak , is rooting just like having the x-terminal on the n900 where I can get in and fek around? Also there appears to be a few ways to root ,whats the best or do I just get a terminal from..android market. Finally anyone running meego on a streak_ cos to be fair it was a bit buggy and limited on the n900. Sorry for being so dense
Check out the links in my signature for some Streak references.
hi guys
i need some serious help.
i bought dell venue 2.2.2 a month back,and i found update on dell site,which i did and it got upgraded to Android 2.3.3
i love my phone,but just because of its so short battery time(also lots of apps jumping in background even when i am not using them,obviously this might be the cause of sucking the battery) i am getting fed up and thinking to sell it and buy some other phone,particularly not Android.i have also same experiences with iOS and i dislike it for its dependency on iTunes.Nokia and BlackBerry are better,they have better battery life but lack of app market makes you confused what to do?
i am a newbie to Android.i found posts on rooting and custom ROMs.
so please guide me,how can i install custom Android 4 on my Dell venue,i read somewhere on blog that an Android update doesn't mean it is also available for any phone but custom ROMs can be possible.
please help me for this so that i may continue using this phone.
regards
awais.
Hi,
Looking for a bit of advice. Wanna give my old i5500 to my mother cos she's been looking at smart phones but is still a bit tentative about making the move over from her old nokia brick
Phones currently rooted and running cm 7 but was wondering if anyones come across a simple rom out there that'll give her a basic smartphone setup to start with or even a few app that mite be useful either.
