I want to ask if we can get wm7 in HD2
after week, month
Please can you answer me Is it possible to run wm7 in HD2
And when we can get it
and What is the difficulty of it
Thank you
It's possible, not difficult, and not available to the public yet .
There are 2 ROMs (as i saw) , the one Cotulla's working on, and the one appears on xda.cn
Only those two know when it'll be available ..
Thanks

How do you know it's possible and not difficult yet? I know cotulla got it to boot using magldr, but past that we don't know if its gonna be possible to actually run it unless we have Microsoft's test versions and jtag flash them to the hd2 ... and even then we don't know if it could be functional enough to make it worthwhile.

I'm pretty sure that what was seen in the Chinese video was one of the testbed hd2s that ms put wp7 on for development. It was definitely an earlier version of the os... and I'm sure it was either flashed on by ms or a jtag was used to flash one of the test versions of wp7 ... either way there is no wp7 that would be possible for one of us to flash.

Maybe the chinese one is a pretest device from microsoft. ok, but what do you tell about the one from cotulla ? you think MS gave the ROM image to cotulla so that he can flash it through Magldr ? or maybe he's fake too ?

It's been done, see Cotulla's twitter feed. Issue is, atm there's no 'live' function.

Did you bother reading my post above? I clearly stated that cotulla got it to boot with magldr, but until today, no one knew if it was operational at all. Now we know that he did get it operational except for the live stuff and app store.
I was just saying that it was not known at the time of the posts if it was gonna be possible to run. Maybe you believed it did, but that doesn't make it fact, and I think peoples questions should be answered with fact. Now that we know it can be somewhat ran with magldr, questions about whether wp7 can be run on hd2 can be answered with a yes.

i was just wondering if a hero can run wm 6.5 and would it be worth it.
Well... while in theory it's probably possible to write an emulator or even hack Windows Mobile to work with different hardware, it's highly unlikely that anyone has bothered to do so. So the short answer is, no, get a Hero if you want to use Android, or get another phone if it's Windows Mobile you want.

i dont think it would be worth it. the hero is an awesome phone, but it isnt anything special hardware wise. if you want winmo it would be a whole lot easier to just buy a winmo phone. i reckon more people are interested in doing the opposite. i would love to have android on my TP2.

Seeing the new HD 2 running on wm 6.5 WITH a captive touchscreen and
about all the hardware being the same on the winmo phones (diamond2)
makes me think it is possible, but still it would be easier to just buy a winmo phone...
Could this be a sticky. I have a feeling this going to a frequently asked annoying question. It has already been asked several times.... Want a Windows phone buy a windows phone.

Why buy a windows phone when the Hero suits your visual demands and is able to run wm 6.5
I can imagine people not buying the hero for it's looks, same with the diamond2
Imagine me loving the hero phone but don't want to leave winmo... would be great
if it can run on it.
Whilst I'm sure it is possible that some enterprising chef could cook up and post up a WM6.5 ROM for the Hero, it would be removed instantly because it would be warez.
The Hero didn't come with WinMo, and therefore doesn't come with a licence to run WinMo. I'm sure someone would argue that they've an old WinMo device and want to "transfer" their licence to the Hero, but the chef could still find themselves being pursued by MS.
The same is not true in reverse of course, because Android is open source, but we've already seen Cyanogen receive a C&D letter from Google for distributing their closed source binaries with his ROMs.

Nah, you wouldn't want to put WinMo on the Hero.
BUT I have an old Orange SPV which runs an old WinMo, could I put Android on to that ?

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.

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.

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...
@LtBlue
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...

Nobody here is responsible for your inability to read. Please go to General forum and look for a post named something similar to Debranding X10. It took me less than 30 seconds to read, understand, and download what is needed, and 5 minutes to have an X10 debranded.
Please stop wasting everybody's time.
By the way, nobody's mom is responsible either for your lack of attention when you're playing with a 500$ phone. If you bricked your phone, you did it all by yourself.
Please mods, delete or close this topic as it's going nowhere (abuse reported)
Hahaha... "ROM flies" =)))
in simple words Ken ... X10I/A doesnt have a custom ROM yet .. its still under R&D by our skiiled mates.. have some paitence and wait and maybe if u dont get burned for all the previous posts.. do keep checking back
I'm glad that he doesn't see it as wasting our time
But the developments are going strong. I even read in a topic about the rooting of the Desire that Modaco will buy an X10 and try to root this (but this is just a rumour)

Ya, I've played with WM 6.5 and Sense on my HTC Touch, and I won't disagree that it looks and runs very simliar, but that's just the home screen, underneath it all, it's still WinMo......
I was a die hard WinMo fanboy back when there wasn't too many other options, but I don't think anyone will disagree when I say WinMo doesn't compare to Android.
Does HTC even make WinMo handsets anymore? I think the last one was the Touch Pro 2, and that was a while ago.....
Don't get me wrong I'm not a WinMo hater, but I just think there is way better options out there today.......

Ya, so did I, and win 6.5 on a Touch is not even close to whats on actual devices. The touch version is stripped and is a farcry from what the HD2 winmo offers. It's very different.
However, I also think droid is thee best OS around and love it. It's a shame we are stuck with 1.6 atm and until Q4 according to Sony, but hopefully that will change soon with the talented individuals here at XDA workin hard at getting the x10 rooted.

Good day all,
Am very interested to able to run Android on my device " HTC Pro Three" . I have try many ways but am still failed to do so.
As advice from " Pongster " this is because my HTC Pro Three RAM is only 320 MB and the android "startup.txt" will run on RAM 512 MB . That's the reason when it reboots it just blank only.
i don’t know if anyone out there have the same device or have any idea how i can make the "startup.txt" able to run under my 320 MB.
If you have any idea or know the solutions, kindly assist me.
Thanks and Regards

can u flash regular hd2 winmo roms? (yours is the one in the picture, right?)
Just by curiosity!
Where did you buy it?
From [[ Cold ]]'s link I see that it has the 1 ghz Snapdragon processor but not the whole rams
I think I read somewhere here on xda someone else had the tp3 prototype. Unfortunately they were out of luck because of the specs and the limited number available there is absolutely no support for that phone.I don't think there is even a hardspl for that phone? Have you been able to flash a custom winmo rom on it?
I think there were others with the same problem as you. They said the devs told them that there most likely wont be any support for them. You should try to trade it for a normal HD2. There are some people who want the pro.three
Maybe someone will trade...
Ask user xmoo.
He seems to know a lot about that particular proto.
Thread example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708637
Why wouldn't you just get the hd2 in the first place
Yes.
am able to flash normal HTC HD2 ROm. I have tested many such as:

- Energy
- MINi ROm

After i flash the Radio, it show:
RAM Size : 448
Flash Memory Size : 512 MB
In order to run the startup.txt for android i need to do some changes:
But which to change:
Startup.txt
set ramaddr 0x11800000
set ramsize 0x1e400000
Basically, i need know what to put in there in order to address the RAM correctly.
Any one have idea on this?
I don't think you have a real prototype. Cause the max rom on prototype is 340mb.
Android won't run on the PRO THREE cause of chipset diffrence. Best thing you could do is trade for a real HD2. I got a retail HD2 if you want to trade pm me.
Don't give up.. don't listen to them.. you better give this phone to cotulla for some days and ask him to figure out something and thank him.. or just use IRC and participate with their discussions anyway.. I'm sure there's a way to fix this..
-What about the old Android builds since they use only 252mb of RAM.. maybe try asking marychima for an old kernel
Good luck with your Pro 3.
EDIT: Quote from xmoo "Android did not boot? Before or after the HaReT patch? Cause one of my friends who still has a pro three (under HTC contract) can bootup Android using the patched HaReT" well.. i'm sure there's a way out to get it working.

Thank you. Old Android builds? Do you mean 2.1 or 2.0 android? and may i know were can i get it?
In the early days for HD2 android we only had 320Mb ram working
I would have thought one of those early startup.txt files would give you what you are after. Having said that if Pongster didn't advise this then maybe it's not that simple.
He knows a hello of a lot more than I do about HD2 Android

No, the ROMs are signed. Basically this signature ensures that the ROM hasn't been altered. It's also not possible to re-create the signature, that's the point of it.
For this, you'd need a SPL (the part that installs the ROM and lies on the phone) with its signature checks disabled (also called Hard SPL, HSPL) and that hasn't been created so far. From what I know, DFT isn't working on this either.
Therefore, it's not possible to flash any non-manufacturer ROMs on the device. It might become possible in the future, but I have my doubts.

To be honest, it's rather unlikely that this would happen. Afaik, DFT were the only ones working on HSPLs and from what I read they haven't gathered enough money to purchase a Titan II. Furthermore, it took 8 months for the original Titan to see such an unlock - and the Titan II is likely better protected than the older model. From the 2nd gen phones, only the HTC Radar/Titan and the Lumia 710 have really been broken so far.
I wouldn't expect to see a HSPL for the Titan II anytime soon, if it is to come at all.
