I personally think it will be a while yet before an SD build is avaliable, but then again I don't know if running Windows Mobile 6.5 from SD will be a very viable way to use the OS. I mean it is a a lot different from Andriod in a lot of ways as car as the actual stucture, size, and demand on the processor. I do know as well as everyone else that DFT anounced they are working on it wich is awsome, and ic anyone can do it they can. But I think we still have a long wait before we get to see the fruits of thier labor. Oh and here, I also seen another thread a little wbile back but I could not find it.

Hi all firstly i am very new to all this technology so be gentle
Ive just ordered a Pay as you go Hero G2 should be here in 2-3 days, anyhows i was wondering if any would be so kind as to tell me with some links if possible for things that i should Download onto it before i start useing it i.e updates? RoM ? 2.0 andriod (if its out yet?)
And some handy apps like a sat nav thats good possibly free ?
Where to get upgrades and how to put them on the phone in lamens terms as i really dont have a clue.
The phone is from the UK if that makes any difference.
Thanks for any help
Peter

There are only unofficial 2.0/2.1 ROMs available at the moment, and most of them have some issues. For many, they are small enough that they can use these ROMs on a day to day basis, but for others they are not.
If you are a total noob to Android, and your ROM comes with a 2.73 build, I would leave it as it is for now until you get a bit more knowledgeable.

Since you are on PAYG, I take it you won't have much data allowance? If that's the case, you don't want anything with online maps. I use Copilot, which is paid app, but it's *very* cheap for what it is and I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Look around these forums for a while, especially the dev forum. Everything you need is here, and you'll get less flak from forum users if you take the time to find it yourself. Of course, if you run into problems post a question, but remember the mantra "search is your friend"!

Thanks alot for your responce i will try searching the reason i do ask though is not through laziness but i am really that stupid when it comes to technology hehe
I would find it and read it and still not have a clue but ty for your answers once more )
How do i check which if i have ROM 2.73 build ? and if its not i take it i would need to find and install that build somehow?
But yes as you said i am a total noob so i guess waiting untill the official 2.0 update is availible.
The copilot you suggest sounds good as thats the main thing i will probably use. Would you have a link to the cheapest or best place to get that from?
So ty for the suggestion.
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?

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

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!
I didn't find anything similar on these forums, so I decided to start new thread...
Here's an idea...
So, my question is to all developers that are still interested in the old Hero -
IS IT POSSIBLE TO COOK SOME WEBOS BUILD FOR THE HERO?
Since the WebOS is now opensourced, I guess we all can find some workarounds to make this happen...
By the way, I LOVE the interface and the way WebOS works... Don't you?
...
Actually, I need 10 posts too... But also wanted to hear some opinions on this...
Anybody??? No one?? ...
I don't think so, cause Hero does not have unlocked bootloader like HD2, and WebOS is working on else architecture, that there aren't drivers and kernel for hero.
We can unlock the bootloader, there was a topic about it in the development section not too long ago. The main problem i think is that we don't have that many devs any more :/

I was about to propose that we discuss it together so we could both get 10 posts, but I*can see you already got them. Lucky you
I heard that some devs from here working on it...

Hi all, so it seems our device isnt getting much support or anything so I've decided to take the plunge try to learn something about porting and see if i can port something to our device... for me its not such a risk as the phone was basically a gift so if it gets bricked ill be sad but not end of the world sad...
so first off i have a few questions
1 the code name all the phones seem to have dev codenames... and of course i notices in the jmz kernal we are downloading the a3ul kernal. so is this the actual name for our phone.. i ask because there are some stock roms and i thought i could maybe make these the base to start from...
2 can you give me some ideas of comparable phones i checked the htc mini one and two while close they both have different cams so i would like suggestions as to other devices so i can try downloading roms and taking them apart to see what i can find out...
3 to any devs, could you recommend some good sites to give me basics in either A)-porting a rom for us, B)-compiling a rom from some source or lastly and really hope leastly the idea of developing something myself somehow...
thanks
Im no developer, but I have recently been looking into this myself and the XDA University seems to hold some fairly thorough guides, I have just not had the time to start anything yet

preaching to the choir bud... i got 2 kids i teach full time and one more baby on the way time is one thing in limited supply.. but i really love this little device so it would be a shame if it went un-developed...
