[Q] Can we expect Windows 7 Roms?! - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
let me start with a quick BIG thanks to all the great chefs in the HD2 cooking class! I have seen many improvements in my device from it's original ROM and it seems it is getting better and better every day! Now my question is when can we realistically expect Windows 7 on HD2? I've seen that it's been cooked in (as shown in yahoo) already but do we have an estimate of when we can have a working ROM? is anybody working on it? is there any problems with the upgrade and our device compatibility?

Well Mr. Observer, let me start by saying your observation skills are lacking. You would know that realistically the first question you should ask yourself is, When was the last time a rom chef had given an ETA for a rom that they had no drivers for was? Or even better, When was the last time a rom chef had given an ETA for anything?
Start with those questions, and then you'll soon come to an answer.

No, you shouldn't

tomorrow.

I think he is not asking for a firm ETA.
more like if there are any cooks already working on it.
XDA cooks are known to do wonders and that's why he is wonder if anyone is cooking anything soon.

I think people like you take all the energy out of everything.. personally i find critical people very useless! if you have nothing to add to the conversation then why join it? looking back at your last few posts (where you're giving **** to someone for spelling errors in a worldwide site where many people use English as 2nd or 3rd language) i really come to understand your attitude pretty well.
....ignoring the above and going back to my original question! I know you guys like to keep it a surprise but is anyone actually working on it good people?
here is a link to what seems to be a legit coocked rom from Cotulla

I can tell you exactly what Windows 7 on HD2 will not, but the Windows Phone 7 possible!

WM2005 etc. Newbie Questions

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.
Viel Glück - Mallow1

WM6 ROM Overclocking

Hi guys i know that it is possible to overclock a rom without external software. Does anyone of you guys know wich files need to be edited or hexchanged in order to clock the prophet by default higher ?

A little respect?

Dude - calm down, Wanwarlock was just trying to assist... maybe you should do a search on the forum... or read - rather than such a response
You could try pming the guy that wrote battery status to see if he can assist you (I'm assuming battery status tweaks the settings rather than OCing directly)

Still... No reason to (over)react so aggressive on a misplaced answer to your original question.... Yes, you asked specific for "stand-alone" settings. No, batterystatus is not your solution... Big deal?

your wrong i called the software ****ing **** yeah but i didnt offend him. maybe my language was misplaced but i never used a offending language to someone.
if ya and the others misunderstood this im sorry for this. i dont wanna disrespect any1 on this forum.
back to topic plz. if any1 knows a solution to overclock the rom by default without a software feel free to tell us.
regards alpha
There is no need to swear at all. So you may dislike the software, but swearing is not going to make people answer your questions.
dear l3v5y
hello my little friend l3v5y,

When you get any basic people skills I might be more inclined to care about your opinion.
If my ROM sucks, you don't have to use it. Maybe you should try cooking a ROM? And then we can criticise you randomly and with no justification at all.
funny
it gets more and more funny !!!
korand doesnt tell me how to port kaiser roms XIP part so i cant make my own romz so i have to complain about your roms ! =)
why does none of you explain how to port the kaiser roms to prophet so we could make roms too ?

Get zeroed!

I could be entirely wrong about this, but it could be due to the fact that the volunteers that spend their own time to cook and mod ROMs do so with no real expectation in return... they do it for fun, experience (and the occasional gratuity) and share their work with us. If you read through this forum, you might see that people are at a minimum cordial to one another - critique of someone's work is one thing and appreciated, but insulting and debasing comments only affect our impression of you - and doesn't really incline anyone to assist.
Think about it and come back when you're in a better mood Alpha

yes ban the guy who helped getting hundreds of dead prophets back.

ROMeOS², monx???????

if there were any troubles, let's bring him back together. however we can do that...
mr.monx, could you please take the floor.
i'm going to also ask, that no one post anything until monx has said his part.
i just realized his threads are gone. what happenned?
Dear all valued friends,
I will no longer as a custom rom builder here (i prefer this word rather than cook/chef) but I will always be around as ur close friend. I will try my best to help anybody need my assistance in rom development or anything I can help. My future (ROMeOS² / ROMeOS³) will available to all listed in my sponsors list in my private site (monx dot info) [will be updated soon].
Thanks a lot for ur supports & xda-developers has nothing todo with this decision.
Best regards,
monx®omeos
That's sad I just discovered you and your wonderful roms .
Why did you also delete the threads by the way? You could leave the old Rom topics open?

Because it will bring more hopes & I dont want to disappoint anybody
this is truly the saddest day in raph rom developpement history. i wish you good luck and thank you for all the great roms you've released.
So, now Your ROM's will become a paid software? Donate to get a ROM?
@krogoth
no. nobody is forced to do so & it will be always as freeware. There are a lot of better ROM out there & even u can make it urself. A paid things will have a price. Mine is enough if u show a very tiny appreciation to my little effort.
It a kind of pointless of countless sleepless hours to serve someone who dont even need it.

bro, i will provide future updates to all sponsors. it will be available at my site. I'm just want to be a normal member here with no pressure
Damn sad to hear .
Thank you for all the great (public) ROM-releases you brought to us / XDA in the past Monx, it was great being a ROMEOS user / fanboy!!!
[edit] Could you not just lock the threads instead of delete them? There was some handy info floating around that could be of use still.
Anyway, it's allready too late I guess [/edit]
WTF! What was happened here?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I'll miss your ROMs and thanks for all the effort monx.
where can i download the latest roms, and has someone backuped the infos anywhere?
tonight, a friend comes extra to me that i flash it for me,
he drives 600km one way...
hope there is anything till 5 PM....
what happened actually monx?i thot u are still in exciting of cooking ur WM6.5 rom?
p/sapehal pon time kasih bro..lulz
Really sad to hear you'll be leaving Monx.
Especially with the new 6.5 ROM you proved to be again ahead of the rest.
But why delete the threads?
Even though most input to a thread is typically provided by the topic starter/chef, I'd like to think we all put our collective knowledge into it.
To just delete all of that because someone decides to move on feels wrong.
You've got to be ****ting me...
Finally a stable 6.5 and your brain decides it needs a rest . Well you deserve it. You could always opt for a little more arrogance .Something like THIS IS MY ROM, enjoy. I will update WHEN I FEEL LIKE IT.... just an idea
No worries, I'll keep checkin your site. One question though, how do I report bugd, or is that the first arrogance part
tks a lot for all, and u hahe my comprension..
ciao, see u in your territory ^^
Thank you for all your efforts in xda-developers. Your roms was always the best out there for me. Thank you again. Wish you all the best!!
Thank you for your hard work, monx.

[Question] Building WP7

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.

Bottom line...

I am sorry as I am certain this question has been asked, but... I really like my TMO HD2 and would like it even more if I could just get rid of WM on it and run only Android Froyo 2.2!
Here are my questions:
Can I remove WM entirely and just install Android Froyo 2.2?
If I can, what would be a decent ROM/Version to use and
How would this best be achieved?
I am truly sorry if my post bothers anyone, I just can't seem to find any simple and direct answer that helps
Thank you
It annoys because it gets asked so often and can be answered by a simple forum search!
Give it a go and see what you can come up with!
Sent from HD2 running Desire Android ROM

I am sorry...
I have literally camped-out on this forum for approximately two weeks now and have been unable to see anything clearly setting-out an answer that meets my needs!
I have seen and read-over about one hundred original posts that allow for the "running" of Android from an SD Card, but not as a WM replacement OS for my TMO HD2!
It is clear that many people are working very hard and I really do appreciate it! i have even submitted donations that reflect my admiration!
If you have seen a posting that directly answers my questions/needs please feel free to point me in the right direction...
Thank you
If you have spent two weeks reading on the forum.....
A short search gave me this discussion, dated 5 days ago, quite active...
First you should answer following questions:
Why do you want to run only android?
What is the problem going through winmo for android?
To answer your question:
For the moment (and probably for ever) it is not posible to run android from ROM. This is due to problems with accessing the NAND. As long as that problem is not solved, it will not be possible.
If running only android is so important, youshould start looking to replace your HD2 for an Android model.
I am sorry, but your answer is not so hard to find. So lying about the amount of time spent on searching for this subject on the forum. (especially because this question has been asked and ansewred so many times.) will not help. On the other hand, if you really spent two weeks searching the forum for an answer to your question, I wonder if you understand/know what you are doing. Either way (lying or clueless) I believe trading your TMOUS HD2 for an Android machine is for you the way to go.
If this does not answer your question, then be more specific.

I think it would have been easier to simply state that it isn't possible...but if ranting helps then your welcome!
If you would have really invested some time (about 30 mins), you could have come to this conclusion yourselves.

I think, the best way for you is to sell your Leo and buy an EVO,. because it has the same technic or better inside and Android system. Also an 8 Mpix Cam and a stand in the accu cover.
