Windows phone 7 rom - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi i recently rooted my htc inspire 4G and im running cm7 rom on it and its very smooth, but i was wondering when a windows phone 7 rom will be out, and if so where? Just thought it would be interesting to have it on an android phone. Ive already tried all the windows phone 7 themes and they dont satisfy me. Keep me updated. Thanks.

Are there any Sense roms for the SGS2?

I looked through the forums briefly but i was just wondering if anyone has heard of any ports from some of the new sense roms. I got to play with the sensation briefly and was impressed with the new sense. I haven't used sense since waaay back on the original desire so I'm really eager to play with sense.
Who else would like to see sense on there sgs2?

[Q] Should I root my Amaze or not??

I'm new to xda, but I've been rooting android phones for over a year. My last phone
was a myTouch slide, which got completly screwed up after like 6 months after I rooted
it. Now I have the Amaze, I know how to root it, but I'm afraid the same thing will happen.
Thanks in advance
Just follow directions...the slide is a PITA to root. The Amaze is EASY to root and keep clean. Just do it.
Mhm, i'll think about it. If i do it, i'll probably root it after the ICS update comes. And i dont want to do it right now because there arent that much roms which is what i want

Quiksense is awesome.
If only for the battery life.
As is Aqsenseless, which I am running. I would say heck yes, but I've been doing it for a while. The flexibility a rooted phone gives you is awesome.

Mhm i think that what i want most is a rom that has Sense 3.5 with the beats audio. Ahhh i too indiscisive!!! I want to root it but at the same time i dont

probably you need to go thru the Hard Method to get the recovery mod work on your phone. i only have a canadian telus amaze 4g and only succeeded in that way.
and again, thank xboarder56 for amazing work!

There you go! Knowing you came from the mt3gs, wasn't this easy as stabbing a cat?
Yeah it was easier than the slide. Thanks for your opinion man

No worries. Once my trusty G1 died, I stoopidly bought the mt3gs...what a F*&^%NG nightmare that was. Lucky for us, most new phones are pretty easy to get into and flash custom recovery. QuikSense is AWESOME for battery life, and I am sure there will be many more kick-ass roms/kernals/radios in the next 6 months.
An android without root is insane in my opinion.
These devs nowadays are porting the entire world into phones now have some fun with it.
im using xboarders amazing sense 1.5 and my battery lasts 2 days now lol, this is my first droid coming from way backberry and i have no regrets, thanks to all the devs and their work making these roms. I cant wait for and ICS one!!
I held off for a while, but now that I have my launcher pro back and I can hide all the junk from the menu, I'm happy I've done it.
There are a few niggling problems with the roms out there now though which make it kind of irritating, but I'm hoping that will work out soon, and i still like it better than sense.
If I buy a phone with the pure Google experience then I wouldn't root.
I am coming from the nexus one so the first thing I did with the amaze was to unlock the bootloader then I rooted. The reason why is I do not like the fancy sense UI. I prefer pure android. I also like the cyanagenmod roms. For now I am using the beastmod and have very little sense UI artifacts.

[Q] WP7 on Amaze?

Hi,
just wondering if there is any plan to port WP7 on to the HTC Amaze. I am currently using a HTC HD2 with WP7 and looking to buy a new phone, but every phone that catches my eye is only for android
Thanks

Ha! I was wondering about this too. Mango looks pretty clean. The Radar doesn't quite satisfy me in the looks dept though.
install launcher 7 from the market

to sum it up its highly unlikely because wp7 is closed source....just buy a hd7 or htc radar

Like he said, you can download a launcher from the market and make it look like a Windows phone but you cannot actually port it.
This is a wp7ROM coming for android soon, so just hang in there.

I have to second the launcher 7, look and feel of 7, with the backbone and support of android
Something to look forward to I miss metro ui and my hd7... L7 doesn't even come close to looking or feeling like wp7 the app list is the only thing close to it. Theres only 2 apps, seven+ calculator and ubermusic that are very close to feeling like wp.
Thanks for your replies guys, looks like ill give the Amaze a miss then. Im not a fan of Android. I had a sensation for a while and couldnt get on with it or Android. Since putting WP7 on my HD2 with a class 6 32GB SD card, ive fallen in love! I was intersted in the Amaze because it has an accessible SD, where as most phones at the moment seem to have the SD card locked away.
Thanks anyway!
weird, my sensation had an accessible SD card??????????
Can't understand why you would want wp7?!
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using XDA App
I want it because its great. As i said in an earlier post i dont like android and cant get on with it. It was always freezing and crashing. Ive been using WP7 for 6 months on my HD2 and i havent had any problems. Never had a crash or had to restart the phone. It works perfectly with my my zune and win 7 computers and sync with my hotmail accounts. I understand many people are android fanboys, but im just not one of them. Thanks for the advice!

Why would you bother asking about it being moved to an android phone then, wp7s hardware sucks because that's how windows phone is designed as an OS they have requirements and what it does and doesn't function with yet. It will be a while before it gets on great hardware and even with mango it still feels incomplete, there are a few good things about it though.

Just wait for the Nokia 900, I love WP7, Android, and BlackBerry, Have used all 3 over the past 6 months.
Seriously? Go find another forum to harass. Better yet, sell me your amaze and pick up a wm7 device.

Call down, he just wants the best hardware he can find
Windows Phone 7 currently has a strict hardware compatibility list. For now best to stick with phones that are built for WP7 otherwise there are likely to be issues. I'd be very careful buying a new Android phone and thinking you can get WP7 on it.

Is somebody working on the HTC Sense(-like) ROM for the S3?

Hey guys! Came from an HTC One X (had the wifi bug and thought why not upgrade instead of having the same)
I really miss the Sense look on the One X (I really do)
Is anyone working on a Sense 4.0 ROM for the SGS3?
I'd donate him BIG TIME!! What about u guys?

I felt like an idiot after reading that *derpface*
I searched all the xda forums for "Sense" didnt got anything!! :/
Am I searching on the wrong place or anything?
btw thanks!
I saw this!
Yeah,
Last week I swapped my HTC One X for the Galaxy S3 seeing this project as I loved Sense 4! I changed my device because I had lots of hardware problems with my HTC and sent it twice for a refurb!
It looks like they havent done work for this project for a few months, It is still really glitchy so I am stuck with TouchWiz as I don't like ASOP

[Q] (Q) ColorOS

Can somebody port ColorOS to our DNA?
Here's the link to ColorOS on HTC ONE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2537754
It is a nice OS very beautiful and best of all it's based on Sense 4.2.2. Winning!!!!!
miui can be based on sense too, and one of our devs is on it

I could probably get it booting but would have a ton of issues just like a Sense based MIUI I'm trying to work on.

Wow you're a beast man. I think it would be almost fully functional, I reached out to the Dev on the HTC One hopefully he replies. Are you going to try and port it from the HTC One? This Rom is very beautiful and smooth or at least that's how it felt when I had my HTC One. My DNA is S-Off and I can do basic ADB/ Fastboot so if you need any help with basic stuff I can help out. Either way all your work is extremely appreciated. Thanks!!!!!
