Window 7.5 mango on Android? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am owner of Verizon Fascinate. Some people told me that windows 7.5mango or other windows mobile os can be installable on Verizon Fascinate or other android device.
Is that possible ?

It's possible, but the chances of anyone ever porting it (besides Enyo lol) are slim. The chances of someone porting anything near useful is...next to none.

Given enough time and money, anything is possible. I suspect that your friend is referring to apps and launchers that are available in the Market that will give your android phone the look and feel of those other OSs UI. See Launcher 7 in the android Market. There are several iPhone launchers also.

There is a Rom being developed at the moment.
With a full complete Windows Phone 7 UI. Even the folders homebrew patch to the launcher.
Its called Cinnamon Rom.
vibrant / Captivate / Unlocked GSM Versions are Fully Supported.

I could have sworn I warned you that they don't allow smartphones (or any mobile phones for that matter) in prison, Enyo. Oh yeah, that was when you asked us if we wanted you to port iOS to the Fascinate. Thread closed in 3... 2... 1... (akellar, if you see this post, I got the countdown idea from cheezburger.com )

1. Yes, please be specific about your intentions, Enyo. Because one of the options nitsuj17 pointed out lands you on the wrong side of the law.
2. Do try to take a lesson and learn something from your brief exile.

Wanna do something cool - My xPlay needs to stand out

Hey guys.
I'm not the only one among my friends who has the play anymore. I used to be cool person when i showed them some emulators and stuff. Yes my friends are r-tards and didn't know how to get emulators and so on. bla bla bla.
What I'm trying to say is that i wanna do something cool with my xPlay. A hack, a mod or anything like that. I wanna be able to say "Oh yeah? but can your play do THIS?!". And no I'm not gay or anything, just trying to have some fun with my friends.
I'm one 2.3.3 and rooted. And that's pretty much it.
So do you guys have any cool suggestions?
What about this. This is my play and i think its xool. Especially love the status bar icons etc.

Well unless you are suggesting that you are going to develop something (say a screen-sharing over USB-Debug kernel module and app controls to PC) Some physical mod or theming/app thing isn't really Dev work.
Development (to my knowledge, correct me if I'm wrong) is more for OS, kernel, unlocking, and low-level stuff. Possibly for app/code development of an app or module that requires lots of Device specific coding. Beyond that, it should be in General, or possibly in the Apps/Themes section.
(sorry to rebump this with my response)

Yeah i know. But i'm not looking for a new theme. I'm looking for a modification. Like for example: I had an iphone before, and you couldn't use multitasking on it (like 1,5 years ago), but with the help of some mods and jailbreak you could. That's the type of stuff i'm looking for, cool modification. AND THATS why I posted this thread here in the development part of the forum. I know it was wrong because i'm writing a question, but maybe mods will let this one slip for a change

ROM Factory​
What is ROM Factory?
Its a tool that will allow the user to create a picture perfect .img from your boot and system partition. It will then create an update.zip from it.
What is a "Fruit Cake"?
A fruit cake is the finish product, a self contain rom, already ready for installation, already inside an update.zip.
So really what does it do?
It allows a bootloader unlocked user to create a full copy of their boot and system partition. All of it, including mods and changes done to either one of those partitions.
Can this be use for easier rom development?
Yes! Beyond just its normal capabilities! After installing the resources you can modify the script and add things to it in *sdcard* /fcm/workdir! Once you are done adding and changing things in there, press "Create ROM".
Supported Devices:

this a tool to aid in development, it goes in the development forum!
this does not bend the laws of physics giving every person in the world the capabilities of creating a rom, it just help those that are beginning. i would like to point out that this forum is already full of useless roms. considering this phone has been around quite sometime and the development forum only has 86 threads, i suggest folks should use this app!
I would like to point out the "Recognize Developer" saw the usefulness of the app. Instead of flaming and making inappropriate comments people should learn to support development.
I have put many days of effort into making this app, If is not appreciate it please let me know and i will end support to a platform i dont even own.
Go figure, the one forum with no development what so ever wants to complaint when help comes there way!

Yes, boot and system. And in the future also apks.
The idea is that you can manually apply any mod you would like to include into the the current ROM, and generate an installation file.

I see...so if it doesn't include apps in the zip what does the "rom" include as far as apps once its generated and flashed?
Will this program allow us fine enough controls as to be able to create sub catagories in Settings like Cyanogenmod and other ROM's have? Or does this basically just make a flashable fresh install style .zip to distribute?

Im curious how it handles symlinking. If it works properly it would definitely bring alot to the table. I work alot so my time is limited and testing on the go is required. If this works i can make test builds without using astro. Of course ill always end up releasing the old fashion way.

Making changes by flashing mods and deleting/changing apks. Changing settings and when youre happy with your phone it makes a rom, hopefully.

Sent from my MB508 using xda premium
Fortunately? Everyone has different preferences, reminds me of the stupid Mac fanboys who ***** out people who ask for some Windows features OSX doesn't have. You can install Windows on a Mac and with some skills you can install Android on an iPhone so I can't see why it'd be so wrong for somebody to ask this.
In answer to your question, you can't, but there's a launcher on the play store called iLauncher which will make your phone's home screen behave and look exactly like that of iOS, and it's super fast and responsive, even adds coloured square backgrounds to icons like the Gakaxy S/S2. There are also apps to sync it up with iTunes. You can't, however, run any iOS exclusive apps.

This is a very Android biased forum, iOS is seen as inferior by most users including me. I don't see why someone would prefer iOS over Android.
Also, anybody who knows anything about technology knows that Apple chooses to keep their OSes very very closed and we simply don't have the resources to recreate iOS on another device.
OP also asked to get "iPhone on Android" which is very vague. Which Android is he talking about?

We could say the same about Windows Phone 7, yet we got it on HD2 and Toshiba TG01.
The problem with iOS is that Apple uses their own variations of hardware (their own chipset, custom GPUs) and writes software which works only on it. This way the OS is very optimised, so technically weak phones (512MB of RAM in iPhone 4S is sufficient?! HOW?!) work very fluently, I could say they work even better than some high-end Androids. Because of these reasons, we can't have iOS on any other device.

Indeed, unless we emulated the iphones hardware there would be no way to run IOS, and to emulate hardware you require much much more powerful hardware so it would be a long time until there was a android device that could emulate a Iphone of current spec
It would require the iOS source code... you could then merge your device source code and build a hacked iOS rom. Either that or some intense reverse engineering and some hacking. But if you did build a hacked iOS rom I suggest not releasing to the public or you will get sued for everything that you're worth.

Porting windows phone is to Samsung galaxy ace

Hi friends,
I wonder if it's possible to port windows phone operating system to Samsung galaxy ace. I have seen some videos of low end Nokia lumia devices having similar specs as that of Ace. They have specs lower than that of ace especially lumia 510. Heard that windows phone os is less lagging
It would be great if someone can give valuable feedback

Porting of wp8 is impossible.
But porting of wp7 would be possible like on the htc hd2. The only problem is that wp is closed source and we havent got windows drivers which the hd2 for example has because it is a wm6.5 phone and not only an android phone like our ace. Im not a dev but i would say: its almost impossible but as we can see our poor device can even run android 4.1 smoothly.
And before the development started many many devs said it would be very very hard to run ics on the ace and it would never run smoothly but as we can all see it worked and its possible. The only thing we need is is a group of very high quality devs like the jellaxy.

Chrome OS -> Open source
Ubuntu -> Open source
Windows on PSP -> DOSBox
Unless you want to make it your life mission it's practically impossible .

Windows on PSP, just dosbox, you can run all windows that are older then ME on Ace too, just need dosbox and some hacking.

I've contacted my buddy Bill Gates, he told me that he'll send me the source tomorrow. Also, he has ordered his programmers to write all the libraries and drivers for Ace to run WP8. So it's possible now.

Go to play store and do some searching...There are a lot of apps that are made to be a look-alike of WP

You guys are such good devs, yet you can't try to do something that seems impossible..And I KNOW its closed source and I KNOW I just used dosbox but still..

You think everything can be reverse engineered ? Besides , even if it was possible it would take decades

Yea I know, but you guys give such negative reply's these poor people will think there is no hope for their Ace..

[DEV][YP-G70] Native Linux

Hello all,
I'm working on booting native Linux distributions on the YP-G70. I'm doing this for only the YP-G70, so don't ask about other devices.
This is a developement thread. Please attempt to keep things on topic. Don't ask for ETA.

He is probably working on Linux for GP5. it was a joke lol
Is this real, lol? If so, how did you manage to pull this off?
It seems that penguins have hijacked your player. Maybe this is the beginning of the penguin apocalypse. Soon, Linus Torvalds is gonna reveal that he is actually a penguin in disguise and he will summon all the penguins to take over the world.

Of course it's real. It's all I've gotten, so far. I'm basing it off of Sultan's kernel config. Hopefully I can get somewhere with this.
Well, good luck.

What kind of initramfs are you using? Android init and ADB or busybox or something else?

Currently, I'm not using any. I may have to use one to switch root to the debian/ubuntu partition. I've been stripping away the Android-y parts of the system, so it's mostly traditional GNU/Linux.

Ok, I know it was a stupid question, but I saw this in a nexus 7 and when I saw the linux penguin I could not help thinking in it. I'm absolutely exhausted about the answers I get of a lot of people. I know I don't know as much as yours about android things, I'm just trying to learn by myself, and life hadn't provided me a good environment to learn english and all these things...
So, I've decided to leave this forum. I don't want to hold this deal anymore. **** you with your great intelligence and android knowledge.

I'm not using Android. I'm trying to make a pure GNU/Linux environment.

-.- Geez you get carried over for nothing do you? apa is known for trolling people (sorry for classing you into this category @apapousek) as you can see yes he's trying to port a full fledged linux into the galaxy player 5.0. Also you should be happy that people are helping. Some people in the forums are even worse. you should see me at the time I wanted to port CWM over to the galaxy player 4.0 (haha good ol' times XD)
Anyways enough off-topic for me.

I would say this is a fair classification. I like to mess with people if they ask a question that's already been answered. Those posts take away from a development thread, and get annoying after a while.
To keep this post on topic:
I'm now working on a custom initramfs to switch root to the filesystem, and execute /sbin/init. Hopefully, this will allow us to load a variety of different distributions onto our YP-G70s. I'm testing with Ubuntu, though.
I just statically built busybox with the arm-cortex_a8-linux-gnueabi-linaro_4.7.3 toolchain. After I get things working, i'll post full sources and instructions (not detailed) on how to build this yourself.
